DISASTER R. I. TRAIN Twelve Lives Lost and Eleven Others Injured. Train Running at High Rate of Speed Plunges Into Gap—Passengers Carried Into Raging Stream With Wreckage and Drowned—Dead Are Nearly All Members of Grow—Passengers Going from Kansas City to Denver. Clayton: Kan. (Special).—A dozen tons lost their lives and 11 others injured. In a wreck of a bound Rock Island passenger in running to Denver from Kan-City. The wreck was the result of a floodburst, which carried out a steel bridge and turned what is normally almost adry bed into a torrent many yards wide. The water washed out early a thousand feet of track also. The train, running at full speed, lunged into the cap. The locomotive and the mail car went into 20 feet of water. The chair car almost descipped the smoking car ahead of it. Several passengers in these two cars were killed almost instantly. Others were carried into the raging stream with the wreckage and drowned. It was many hours before the bodies could be recovered. Passengers in the Pullman and the other day coaches were hurled from their berths or seats by the shock. Those who were able hurried out into the storm and gave what assistance they could to the injured. It was impossible for sometime to attempt to extricate the bodies of the dead. Uninjured passengers hurried to Clayton, two miles away, and sent news of the accident to division headquarters. Within half an hour physicians and nurses and a wreck train were hurrying to the scene from Norton, Colby and Goodland, Kan., and Phillipsburg, Neb. It was nearly night, however, before the last body was recovered from the wreckage in the river. Members of the Topeka baseball team of the Western League were occupants of the Pullman, but all escaped injury. Nearly all those killed and hurt were in the smoking car and the day coach next to it. All the slain passengers lived in Kansas and Colorado. Chicago (Special).—A report to General Manager W. S: Kinsman, of the Rock Island, whose office is in this city, says: "Train No. 27 in wreck. Bag-gangman, fireman, engineer and conductor of train and five passengers killed. May be three or four other passengers under cars. Eight injured have been taken to Norton, Kansas." The message was signed by the division superintendent from the scene of the wreck. Chavez Badly Hurt, Near End of Perilous Filight. Domodossola, Italy (Special).—The great feat of crossing the snow-capped Alpine barrier between Switzerland and Italy in a heavier-than-air machine, was accomplished by George Chavez, the young Peruvian aviator. The plucky hero of the exploit, however, lies in the Domodossola hospital badly injured as the result of an accident that occurred just as he had completed the most arduous and nerveracking portion of a task he had set out to accomplish—a flight from Brig; in Switzerland, across the Alps to Milan, in Italy, in all a distance of about 75 miles. Both his legs are broken, his left thigh is fractured and his body is badly confused, but the physicians in attendance are of the opinion that these hurts will not prove fatal and that unless unlooked-for complications ensue Chavez will be about in two months. Chicago (Special). — Isaac R. Warns, "broker in hearts," as he styled himself, "was sentenced by Judge Landis to serve 14 months in the Federal prison at Fort Leavenworth for using the mails to defraud. Warns confessed that he had used the mails in carrying on the business of his marriage bureau. His curculures depicting the sadness of lonely marriage, were read in court. One of his books, sent to prospective customers, was entitled "The Way to Win a woman's Heart." It contains the following passage: "You do not know what it is to live alone, uncared for, unknown, when old age overdue, soon, enquiries not easy, agony." Chicago, (Special)—Elire, In the pine plant of the Deering Harvester Works caused $200,000 loss. Mem- ories of the two companies of firemen were overcome by smoke in upper houses of the plant, but were rescued comrades. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1910. TO PREVENT RATE INCREASE An Organized Fight Against the Railroads—Truth is Wanted. Topeka, Kan. (Special). Organized opposition to the proposed increases in railway freight rates was begun here at a conference of more than 150 representatives of commercial and public organizations of Middle Western States. The fight against the proposed rates is to be carried on principally before the Interstate Commerce Commission. The resolutions adopted declare for an equitable increase in rates if the railroads can show that present rates are unmunerative; demand a decrease in rates if investigation shows the present rates are too high; ask a restriction of the proposed advance if present rates are found remunerative; call for a mandatory Federal law, making it the duty of the Interstate Commerce Commission to make a physical valuation of railroad property, and demand a rigid enforcement of anti-trust laws. The meeting was opened with an address by Governor Stubbs, of Kansas. Governor Stubbs reviewed the situation and ended by declaring "my hope is that this meeting will demand from the railroads the naked truth about their properties." Murdo MacKenzie, president of the American Live Stock Association, was made chairman of the meeting. He gave figures which he said showed that railroad earnings were not reported correctly by the road. It is planned to hold other meetings of the conference later. Committees were appointed to organize the work begun. The resolutions conclude: "We urge the Interstate Commerce Commission thoroughly to investigate the operating expenses of railroads, to find what betterments are added thereby to property, and all the conditions and valuations of railroad properties, regardless of the time that may be consumed, in order to obtain an intelligent basis for the consideration of the proposed advance in rates. "We declare it to be the duty of Congress to enact a mandatory law, making it the duty of the Interstate Commerce Commission to make a searching investigation into the actual physical valuation of all the railroad lines in the United States." Chairman-McKenzie was appointed head of a special committee of seven to present to President Taft the declaration of the conference. PREFER SOLDIERING. Baseball Player and Reporter Are Among Those Who Enlist. Atlanta, Ga. (Special — "I read what Soldier Johns said about Uncle Sam taking better care of his soldiers than baseball managers take of star pitchers, and I want to enlist." With this declaration Edney Ridge, a reporter on the Greensboro (N. C.) Telegram, approached Lieut. John Symington, the local United States recruiting officer. Ridge was promptly enlisted for the cavalry. The erstwhile reporter is only one of a dozen recruits who joined the army here in the last two days because Soldier Johns, formerly of the Seventeenth United States Infantry, and pitcher for Southern League and Southeastern League teams for the season just ended Tuesday, re-enlisted because he thought soldiering an easier life than ballplaying. A MOTHER'S LONG CHASE. Traveled 15,000 Miles to Find Her Kidnapped Daughter. Evansville, Ind. (Special).—Miss Dottie Barrows, aged 15, who it is alleged was kidnapped at Houston, Tex., August 17, 1909, by Dr. Gordon Martin, an itinerant dentist, was found here by her mother. Mrs. Eloise Barrows, after a chase of 15,000 miles over the United States and Mexico. The mother spent over $5,000 in the search and finally located her daughter in this city, and broke into her room at the Wellington Hotel while the girl was asleep. The meeting was dramatic. The girl said she went to Dr. Martin's office in Houston to have a tooth pulled, and that he doped her. It is said that Martin has fled into Canada. · THIEVES ARE CAPTURED. Three of the Four Who Stole Country Fair Receipts. Biddeford, Me. (Special).—Three of the four men who stole a box containing $2,238, the day's receipts at the Cumberland County Agricultural Society's fair at Gorham were captured near here. Fourteen hundred dollars of the money was found upon them. One of the men threw away $300 when he realized that his arrest was imminent, but later told the officers where they might find it. The men gave their names as John Morgan, James K. Miller and George A. King. The whereabouts of the fourth man is not known. LIGHTNING KILLS FOUR Storm Wreaks. Death in a Town in Colorado. Colorado Springs, Col. ("Special").—Lightning killed four persons during a storm, in the vicinity of Eastonville and Elbert, 25 miles northeast of here. The dead are: Mrs. Gus Klatz, of Elbert; Col.; Mrs. Julius Elatz, of Klowa; Col.; James Bland, of Plattsburg, Col.; and William Lolcamz, of Eastonville; Col. THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. Burton W. Yates, Detroit Millionaire, Ends Career With Pocket Handkerchief—Quarrel Started in Wineroom—Mrs. Fred Singer, of Cleveland, the Victim—Suicide Told Marshal Two of Five Shots Were Aimed at Self. Cleveland, O. (Special).—A man believed to be Burton W. Yates, a Detroit business man, committed suicide by hanging in the county jail here, an hour after he had been lodged there for shooting a woman identified as Mrs. Fred. Singer, of Cleveland, formerly of Detroit, in a roadhouse at Rocky River. Left along in the "bullpen" of the jail while commitment papers were made out, Yates hurried into the washroom, tied his handkerchief around his neck, attached it to an iron bar and strangled himself. When the guards returned they found him dead. The woman was taken to a hospital in a taxicab which the man thought to be Yates summoned to the roadhouse. She will live, barring complications. Dragged from Phone Booth. Dragged from Phone Booth. The shooting followed a day of automobile rides. The couple arrived at the roadhouse shortly after midnight. At 8 A. the morning, shortly after the man and ordered the axicab, the gun started which ended in the man rushing out of the roadhouse and across the street to the telephone booth of a rival establishment. The man followed closely. The woman had entered the telephone booth by the time the man arrived. He forre open the door, dragged her out, and asked her to return with him. There was a brief argument, when he drew a gun and fired five shots. Two took effect, one in the woman's back and one in her leg. Employees of the roadhouse overpowered the man and summoned Marshal Roy Martin, of Rocky River, who brought him to the jail. There the man gave his name as B. W. Yates. Mrs. Singer was identified through her attorney, Frank Billman, who stated that she had come to Cleveland from Detroit two weeks ago in order to escape Yates. All admission to Mrs. Singer's room at the hospital has been denied. Until she is able to talk, the causes that led to the shooting will remain a mystery. Marshal Martin says the man told him that two of the five shots he fired were aimed at himself, but that he was so nervous he missed. Mrs. Singer is the wife of Fred. Singer, a traveling salesman of this city. Jacob Singer, an attorney, is her brother-in-law, and Louis Singer, a dry goods dealer, her father-in-law. She is said to have married Singer in Detroit. They are not living together. Since her return to Cleveland, two weeks ago, she has been stopping at a hotel. Complete mystery surrounds the relations of the man and woman, who have been acquainted, it is admitted, for some time. She has been estranged from her husband for months. Her condition is reported at the hospital as serious, but it is added that she will recover. She was unable to make a statement, it was announced. MORE ALASKAN FRAUDS. Ballinger Said to Have Unearthed Big Land Scheme: Spokane, Wash. (Special) — The Chronicle says: "An investigation of suspected Alaskan land frauds, which may exceed in scope and startling developments the famous Cunningham cases, is believed to be in progress by Federal officers in the Northwest. "This investigation, which is said to involve an entirely new group of claims in charges similar to those brought against the Cunningham entries, is believed to have been instituted and actively pushed by Secretary of the Interior Ballinger. "The list of entrymen involved is said to include many men of prominence in Spokane and its vicinity, as well as others of national importance. "Secretary Ballinger's recent visit to Spokane, according to the rumors afloat here, was made in furtherance of the investigation now in progress by officials of the Land, Office and the Department of Justice." TROLLEY KILLS MINISTER Rev. Cyrus Pickett, of Connecticut, Struck Down by Car. Cheshire, Conn. (Special)—The Rev. Cyrus Pickett, pastor of the First, Congregational Church, but recently retired, was struck and instantly killed by a trolley car bound from New Haven to Waterbury. Rev. Mr. Pickett had spent the evening at the home of George Clark, and on leaving went to the roadway and signaled an approaching trolley car. Whether the motorman of the car failed to see Mr. Pickett or was unable to stop his car, which was going rapidly, is not known. Mr. Pickett, who stood near the tracks, was struck on the head by the car, thrown several feet and his skull fractured. Medical Examiner Dennison said that death was probably instantaneous. Rey, Mr. Pickett was 665 years old and leaves a widow, five daughters and two sons. COLLISION OF TROLLEY CARS Forty-Two Persons Killed and Seven Hurt. Fort Wayne, Ind. (Special). Forty-two persons were killed and seven were seriously injured in a head-on collision between two inter-urban cars on the Fort Wayne and Bluffton division of the Fort Wayne and Wahash Valley line. The wreck occurred seven miles north of Bluffton at a sharp curve. The cars in collision were a northbound focal car crowded to the steps and a southbound "extra" car from Fort Wayne. They met while both were running at high speed. The collision is said to have been caused by misunderstanding of orders in regard to the southbound "extra" car taking a switch near Kingsland, so that the northbound car could pass it. There were two physicians on the cars at the time of the wreck. One of them escaped serious injury and, with the other, who was painfully hurt, rendered assistance to those who survived the shock of the collision. Relief cars were hurried from this city and doctors went from Bluffton in automobiles. Many of the dead had already been removed from the debris of the splintered cars and the grewsome work of taking out the mangleled remains of those in the farther recesses of the wreckage was taken up by the company's wrecking crews. Most of the people on the northbound car were on the way to the fair at Fort Wayne. Help from nearby residences was rendered to such as could be removed from the wreckage. The motormen of the two cars did not have time to set brakes when they sighted each other. Conductor Spiller, of the southbound car, was unhurt, and ran back toward Kingsland and flagged a car, which was approaching the wreck at full speed, and would have plunged into it. JOURNALISTS IN DANGER. Torreon, Mexico (Special).—It has just leaked out here that an attempt was made to wreck the special train bearing 40 American and Canadian journalists at the station at Guadaloupe, South Zacatecas, last week, on their way to the City of Mexico. Nearing a switch, the engineer discovered a pile of rocks on the track, and upon further investigation it was found that the switch had been "cooked." The affair was kept from the members of the party and was at once reported to the police at Zacatecas, who are working on the case. TRAIN GOES INTO DITCH. Aged Woman Killed and 25 Persons Injured. Lima, Ohio (Special)—Chicago and Erie railroad fast train No. 4, eastbound, was wrecked, near Conant, nine miles west of here. An aged woman was killed and 25 persons were injured. The smoker, day coach and two Pullman cars left the track and were overturned in a ditch 20 feet deep. A Mrs. Strailer, of Brooklyn, N. Y., was instantly killed, while her son, seated by her side, escaped injury. DIES FROM POISON. Frank Reiger, Former New York Clothier, Succumbs in Chicago. Chicago (Special).—Frank Reiger, formerly a New York clothier and once reputed to be worth $125,000, died from the effects of poison which he swallowed here Tuesday. Reiger, who was 60 years old, had become penniless. Kaiser's Daughter to Wed. Berlin (Special).—It is reported in connection with the Kaiser's present visit to Vienna that the engagement is being arranged for the Kaiser's only daughter, Victoria Louise, to the Archduke Karl Franz, eldest son of the late Archduke Otto. Archduke Karl would be Emperor of Austria failing the succession of Franz Ferdinand. There are religious difficulties in the way, as the Archduke Karl is a Roman Catholic. Charbon Stamped Ont. Baton Rouge, La. (Special). Charbon, which has caused the death of hundreds of cattle in Southwestern Louisiana, has been stamped out, according to an announcement made here by the Louisiana Sanitary Live Stock Board. Quarantine against the movement of cattle from that section will be lifted September, 25, it was said. 'Tis False: Pauline Is Safe. Martinette, Wis. (Special)—A report from Washington that. Pauline Wayne, the cow given by Senator Stephenson to President Taft, had been lost is incorrect. Pauline is in the Senator's stables at Kenosha, where she has been for three months. The cow will be sent to Washington in October. Adulterated Eggs. Washington, D. C. [Special]—For selling adulterated eggs to dealers in the city market Charles W. Cornwell, local manager for Armour & Co., of Chicago, was fined $200 in Police Court. Coloring, matter, and preservatives were used in the eggs, which were stripped of their shells and packed, in bulk. Government food inspectors say other cases of violation of the Pure-Food Law in this city are to be prosecuted. UNDERCLOTHES. Most women wear more undergarments and bunchier styles than there is any need for. It makes a world of difference with their figures. It destroys all the lovely curves, makes the beltline too large and it is positive death to this year's fashionable slimness. There is no need to reduce the diet and lace heroically, when by simply wearing certain fitted combination garments your figure will do very nicely. The proper corset can not be over-emphasized. A little bust is the thing just now, and with the long hips the waistline need not be reduced beyond absolute comfort. It is quite necessary that the corset be properly fitted and properly adjusted, but the matter which is more easily disposed of is the selection of proper underwear. Now, belts and peplums and plats and gathers are all at variance with the present fashion; hence the fitted combination garment has been designed. Sometimes the combination is of corset cover and drawers, sometimes of corset cover and short petticoat, sometimes of cover, drawers and long petticoat. The best combination is that of cover and long skirt, with a knee-length union suit underneath. Nothing else is needed with this but the dress, and, naturally, the corset. The materials selected for this little princess combination must be soft and pitable. Nainsook and persian linen are well-proved materials. China silk now has entered the field. It is not quite so cool for summer wear, but it has the other necessary quality, of suppleness. Many petticoats are made destitute of ruffles. White china silk may be washed as satisfactorily as cotton or linen. A tiny bit of bluing should be used in the rinsing water to prevent the silk, from turning yellow. COOKING AND ALTITUDE The cook, in the town among the mountains, who is the envy of the neighborhood, is far from being so great a success in lower districts, unless she change the proportions of the ingredients used—especially butter. It is said, conversely, that recipes for cake which gave most successful results along the seacoast have been utter failures in the Rockles. CHANGING THE BED LINEN Arrange to change the bed linen, on the day you sweep your bedrooms. The soiled sheets may thus be drawn over the newly made beds to keep the duat from the spread and pillows. It will take but a few moments to remove these sheets and shake out. NIGHT PILLOW SHAMS Take the good part of worn sheets (or use new material if preferred) and spread over and tuck under the pillows when fixing the bed for use at night. These will protect the pillow slips. LINGERIE BLOUSES The newest models in very handsome hand-made lingerie blouses are composed of heavy, soft, hand-woven linens, beautifully embroidered in open-work designs and combined with the sheerest of linen and finest of laces. FASHION NOTES. For street wear there is a growing fashion for severe frocks of striped linen. Tighter than ever are the skirts at the bottom. Some of the plaitings come with a border in color. Tulle makes a simple yet attractive coiffure ornament. Embroidered nets are fashionable, and colored net waiststs have been seen for some time. Unlined short wraps made of chiffon, voile and marquissettes, are being shown in the shops. Silk crepe, heavily beaded, is one of the smartest materials for handsome gowns: In fact the beading seems to be as popular as it has ever been. Black chiffon jumpers, piped with persian silk or with black satin, are attractive novelties. It is predicted that brown and black furs, especially sable and zibelline, will be worn this fall. Linings for evening wraps, and coats are of contrasting color, either of chiffon or soft satin. HOUSEWIFE'S SANITATION. It takes but a minute—just the small daily peep—to see that everything is in condition, and all danger of ptomaine poisoning from spilled food is removed. Garage pails can ruin one's reputation as a cleanly citizen, besides being a menace to the family's health and comfort from flies and mosquitoes. It is but a step further after examining the refrigerator to see that the garbage pail is covered and disinfectants sprinkled outside, and in. If city collection is not adequate pay to have garbage removed on intervening days. A cellar can get very moldy in a week in hot weather, especially if market baskets are allowed to stand around with decaying vegetables or fruit in them. Visit the underground part of your house every few days, and at firts sign of mustiness sprinkle lime and wash off shelves with a solution of carbolic acid. SEWING. Skirt seams are pressed twice. As soon as they are sewed they are flattened, and once again after they are finished with tailor's stitching. Old bliss band trimming has been revived and is seen on gingham, on silk and on cloth. Some of the very latest black-and-white striped cloths in Paris are simply trimmed with the same material cut on the bliss and stitched in the good old-fashioned way. Old-world mother-o'pearl counters are being brought forth from their hiding places and used for the decoration of bags, etc. The carving as well as the iridescent lights, in the pearls are by no means the least of their many attractions. As will be remembered, they are in the form of fish, animals, birds, as well as geometrical designs. A woman who was limited in her prize giving in a club to 25 cents a prize, bought three sheets of blotters and a yard of ribon to match, the former costing 5 cents aplice, the latter 10 cents a yard. Each of the blotters was cut into four round mats large enough to extend slightly beyond the bottom of a dinner plate. The twelve pieces were neatly lined together with a ribbon, with fluffy bow on top and the mats were ready for the careful housekeeper to sit between her fine china plates to prevent scratching. BABY UTILITY BOX A charming gift for a new-born babe which will prove most useful to the mother is a roomy cardboard box filled to the brim with the necessary articles for baby's toilet. The box itself is decorated on the lid with a pen and ink sketch of storks, and in the center of it is printed an amusing verse about the contents. The articles (each wrapped in white paper and baby ribbon with a short appropriate verse attached) consist of a good sachet, a pure baby soap, a roll of absorbent cotton, a thermometer for the bath, the very-necessary safety pins, little orange sticks for use in applying cotton, a sponge, talcum powder and boracic acid. After removing these and enjoying the wit, the verses, the mother will find the bottom a pretty sachet pad, powered with dainty dimity and scented with orris root.—Vogue. SAVE HAT BANDS. Do not throw away the skirt hat bands on men's straw, hats or not felt hats, as they make excellent belts to be used in a buckle or take the places of belting for skirt bands. Don't let yourself rust, mentally. The growing girl and boy who can have mother help out in a tight place in his lessons, or can come to her for a clear answer, to a perplexing question, rarely gets that, disagreeable know-it-all air so common to young America. Don't try to force your children's confidence. If from the start, you have tried to be a chum, to your child the confidence will be given in solicited; those that are asked are given grudgingly and with a some of resentment; if not actually required. long and fine Thames Dellas and which are held by the State of Georgia by authority and under the provisions of an Act of the General Assembly approved October 22d, 1887, and amended December 20th, 1892.

DRY GOODS STORE, Owlannott and West Broad Sta. At the meeting of the Negro college presidents held in Atlanta-last spring the following statement was issued to the country: First—There is an increased and pressing demand for college trained Negroes. Second—The Negro graduates are at present, with very few exceptions, usefully, and creditably employed. Third—The courses of study in these colleges do not call for any peculiar modification, but should (on the whole, conform to the general type of curriculum designed for the preparation of broadly educated men to take their places in modern civilization. Fourth—There should be at least one college for Negro students in each State, liberally endowed. Fifth—There should be every effort toward co-operation between colleges in the same locality, to avoid unnecessary duplication of work. Sixth-Negro public high schools are greatly needed in the South. Seventh-We believe in perfect-honesty in living up to catalogue requirements of admission. Eight-The amount of Greek and Latin in colleges should be gradually reduced. Ninth-The time given to natural science, English, history and sociology should be decreased. Tenth—We believe that, vocational training is a pressing need of Negroes, but that I should preceded and accompanied by as much cultural training as is practicable. It is the third, eighth and ninth points with which we are most concerned. The loud and long call of the day is for men trained effectively for the largest possible social-service, and in the case of the Negro, it is absolutely imperative that these venerable gentlemen differentiate between a college education and a liberal education. We would not be understood to say that there is need of a distinct type of Negro college. We would advocate the same kind of college for any other people similarly situated. We need to select as ideals those colleges which lay particular stress on social education, notably Wisconsin and Columbia. If this is done we do not need to have any particular brand of "Negro education." If we do not make the grievous error of confounding a college education with a liberal education; if we select the best ideal from among the oldest colleges of the country, then it will be wise to "conform to the general type of curriculum designed for the preparation of broadly-educated men to take their places in modern civilization." A distinguished educator has recently said:: "Colleges for whites have, in general, made great progress during the past generation. Negro colleges, partly from lack of means, have advanced less. The process of breaking away from externe classical ideals is slow. To illustrate: An examination of the latest catalogue of well-known Negro college shows that in the preparatory and college courses, leading to the A. B. degree, Greek, Latin, or mathematics are to be found as required subjects in seven cut of the eight years. In the last two years of the preparatory school 84 per cent, and the first two years of the college course 52 per cont. on all the recitation time must be devoted to this ancient trinity. There is no option. In this kind of liberal educa- HOW TO GET ALONG IN LIFE. "What is the secret of success?" asked the *Sphinx* "Push," said the Button. "Take pains," said the Window.

"No one wants to see Greek and Latin forbidden, to the Negro, any more than to the white student, but the fact remains, that to the great, majority of both races, the study of the classics is not worth while. We need to remember that the value of a study is to be measured, not only by what it gives us, but also by what it deprives us of. The Negro sturent often enters college relatively late. He has been handicapped by poor schools and by poverty. To still further handicap him by insisting that so large a portion of arts time shall be devoted to a disqualifying culture is unfortunate. No white college of the first rank could, today-pursue such a course and live. "The better class of Negro colleges were founded and have been maintained by high-minded, consecrated men. Association with these men has often been a most valuable feature of college life. We have no wish to belittle their splendid labors," but a new day has dawned. The social studies are coming to the front and are demanding more and more attention in our white institutions of learning. In all this progress, we do not wish to see the Negro left behind. We believe, that every college, whether for Negro or white, should train its students effectively for the largest possible social service. This the curriculum of our grandfathers can not do." It would seem, therefore, that there is little wisdom in handling words so gingerly when the widest use of the Negro college is under discussion. We know that we are face to face with a peculiar condition, and it takes peculiar measures to regulate that condition properly. There is no use treating the bumps on a man's face when his blood is disorderly. But that is exactly what we are doing when we offer to men a college training which wheedles them into the idea that they are being educated when they are simply playing around the edges of the stream of power. Let us get at the root of the matter. The Negro college, if it would increase and maintain its efficiency, must know much of the Negro's social fills, and put forth efforts to relieve them. We know of some Negro colleges, which seem to be surrounded by THROUGH THE "Tall was my camel and And small the gate as a "The city within was w And I and my camel w "You must lower your You must throw away "This I did, but the lo Far too wide for the na "Now,' said the porter, Discard that hamper of "I obeyed, though with Yet still my camel now "Ah,' said the porter, Some little package of "The merest handful w Yet 'Throw it away,' the "Then lo, a marvel! the Shrank to the size of the "And all my riches, a Easily passed through WORDS OF WISDOM.

'Tis the common vice of nature that we at once repose, most confidence, and receive the greatest apprehension, from things unseen, concealed and unknown—Jullus Caesar. Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras we misunderstood, and Socrates' and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicum and Galileo, and Newton, and every sure and wise spirit—that ever took flesh: To be great is to be misunderstood. Adversity is sometimes hard upon a man, but for one who can stand prosperity there are a hundred that will stand adversity — Thomas Carlyle. The ugleat of trades have their moments of pleasure.

Knowledge and timber shouldn't be much used till they are seasoned — Oliver Wendell Holmes. All art is in its origin connected with religion — Ultral. haios of academic glory outside of watch they dare not venture to gain intimate knowledge of their respective communities or relieve their illa. One more point, worthy of consideration in the discussion of the efficiency of the Negro-college is that of the various, curricula. The Negro race is overloaded with cheap hackslore of arts and science, various kinds of academic doctors who handle the king's English, either written or spoken, with a carelessness which would not for a moment be tolerated by the average Sophomore. The institutions upon which many of us look with pride as the "college" or the "university" are often unworthy of being called a good high school. If some plan could be projected by the various societies and denominations for consolidation of the larger colleges into fewer institutions and for reduction of the smaller colleges to efficient high schools, much might be accomplished thereby for the race. The tendency of the age is toward co-operation: We must eventually co-operate in education if we are to get the most good out of the means at hand. We need at least one good-Negro college in the South as good, as any institution in the country. There are several reasons for this, but the main reasons are the growing intolerance of the Negro in the Northern colleges; also, the North is beginning to think that if our leaders are always preaching the great material progress that the Negro is making, why the Negro ought to turn a considerable portion of this wealth toward his own education. Oberlin and Michigan, Harvard and Wisconsin still hold open-their doors to Negroes, but it is with a spirit of mere endurance rather than hearty, sympathetic encouragement. We ought to support one first-class college of our own. As long as we depend on some one," one for help, we will be some one's "problems"; when we begin to help ourselves, we are the healing solution. If we make up our minds to get this first-class, efficient institution, let us accept the suggestion put-forth by Doctor Washington in a recent number of the New York Independent. Let us use Fisk, or Howard as a nucleus and build about, this a modern, efficient Negro college, second to none in the country,—H. S. Murphy, in Southern Ploughman.

SNAPSHOTS. Parents are xery largely responsible for their children not being industrious. There would not be so much confusion and falling out if a second thought was taken. The geratest help of all help is self help. The person who who is a thief thinks everybody else is a thief. The world is calling for men that can do. The biggest fool of all tools is that person who thinks they know it all. Both men and women are out teaching others what to do and how to live and their homes are total wrecks. Wouldn't it be a blessing if people would stop talking about each other in an unbecoming way? Some people will go through fire to go to most any kind of a social entertainment but would not attend church worship in the most pleasant weather.

We cannot see the good that persons who have lived in the sunlight can accomplish, by criticizing the efforts of others who are making an effort - Richmond Reformer.

The general of an army is not so needful of stratagem as the society leader. There are many good white people who have formed their opinion of the Negro race from the accounts which they read in public prints of Negro wickedness, whether these accounts are true or false. Millions of people believe what they see in the papers. You can easily see what feelings these reports are producing in the minds of the credulous, against us. When a white man or white woman sees a Negro, man or woman, what thoughts come up? What are that white woman's thoughts of safety; of the character of that Negro; the virtue of that Negress; and of the honesty of that Negro's main? And in general such thoughts as would inspire an intelligent and civilized Negro on meeting an Indian, a Chinese, for even a white man, renewed from personal or property security. We say, it is wonderful under these circumstances that the relations between the race are as amicable as they are. The southland is, indeed, a land of miracles which exceeds Gaillie; for son, their life has no counterpart in the history of all the world. S. W. Christian Advocate. WHITE MEN SHOULD STUDY THE Gatherings of the best Negroes are studiously shunned and ignored. The best Negro is never seen by our critics. In all reason, how can critics pass judgment? They observe the worst element and from it form their judgment, and thereon their treatment, regardless of the injustice and hardships to which they subject us—even their beloved "Black Mammas" and trusted, often refined servants, who are to associate with their own virtuous wives—and daughters; innocent and lovely children. If Christian men would only study us, stop and study, things would be better, God knows.—S. W. Christian Advocate. NORTH CAROLINA PROGRESS The Negro is buying land with avhn. Negro farms are increasing, and Negro businesses are making commondable Roadway. The tremendous efforts now being made to turn European emigration southbound ought to be a sufficient notice to our people to be on the job. The Negro who falls to get his land now whether for home, school or business purposes, will not be able to secure it at any price in the near future. The white man has his "study" cap on, and is already planning and figuring for the future and in the interest of the race. It behooves us therefore to read the sign of the present times—Wadesboro (N. C.) Enterprise. When man has a dollar he will, come very near making his way regardless of the color of his skin. If our race was a race of wealth—money and property—we would have no race question. It is not so much the color of the Negro that keeps him down as it is his poverty and ignorance. There is no, earthly way to keep money and intelligence down. They are the great levers which move the earth. They have always ruled and controlled, and they will do so. Let the Negro spend less time in whining about being discriminated against, and spend more time in securing this world's goods, and useful knowledge and he will find that discrimination will disappear before those great forces as doft the morning mist before the effulgent rays of the noody sun—Mountain Leader. Mr. Rucker's successor has been named. The Honorable Mr. Jackson of Atlanta has been appointed to the place which Mr. Rucker has filled with credit to himself and to the nation and in so doing he has proven that the Negroes are able to shoulder great responsibility and manage them as successfully as any that ever preceded him. Well done, Mr. Rucker, your people are proud of you and will honor you—whenever opportunity comes your way—Savannah Independent. Brookhaven, Mass.—No man can sit down and expect another man to carry his burdens, and the same is true with races, declared Rev. A. M.

It should be cause of great gratification to the race to know that we own and control 62 banks in the United States and the capital stock of which amounts to $2,000,000. Annually these banks handle something near $2,000,000. Another source of gratification should be to us very few of the banks among the have ever failed and depositors have lost less money in these banks, than in any other class of banks. These things speak volumes for the business, judgment, or the PROBLEM WITH THE CHURCH If some one will and a way to keep the young people in the church and interested in religious work, a great blessing will be bestowed upon the young people themselves, and great encouragement, given to the church life of our people, but we are not the only people who are perplexed with this serious question, nor are we the only denomination that finds it necessary to discuss the question, for even the Catholic church which credited with holding its young people with a strong grip is complaining of the same condition of affairs.

GOSPEL WORTH PREACHING We most heartily endorse the sentiment so often expressed in the white press that the Negroes have the friendship and condemn of the people among whom they live—and from whom largely we get a living. We think our people, in every denomination and mainly way should show to their white neighbors that they deserve their peace and prosperity, that they are willing to join, with them, in improving the moral, the sanitary and the social conditions of the community and that they stand ready to aid in the enforcement of law and applying to all-offenders alike without partiality. But we also content that our white neighbors should meet us, half way and be just, as ready to assist us in worthy endeavor, and accord equal protection of the law and show us that they appreciate the efforts upon the part of the law abiding, industrious Negroes to improve the condition of the race. We are poorly encouraged to practice Danny McKean (KY), Toucheight. How very much we would like to sequa a better form of church fifteetie at some of our churches. Since the church is the Alpha and Omega, or in other words the great maker of instructions for our people, the minister should be very careful indeed to give the best possible instructions along all lines. Punctuality, that rests at all virtues, should be more generally cultivated, frequently the hour for dismissal arrives, and departs before many of our divines amish their firstly. Another thing we condemn, is crowds standing in front of and in the vestibules, of churches, of assembla, stroll in take their seats in reclining manner as though they have a severe attack of loofing or else sleep and drowsy, from as tool sitting up over night, if we are to judge from the manner they recline upon the news with their faces inclined in the path of their nails. Richmond Reformer. Industrial and mechanical education is a good thing for any people. The Negro knows it and is applying himself旦 the task of the training himself along these lines but after getting the skill and an efficiency through them, let him go on as far as his aspiration will lead him. For the real merit of a man in this world is measured not to much by what he is below the shoulder line, but by what he is above it. 2024-03-24 10:24:00 am, correspondent From some items from the Arthing of Port Angeles, the following has been clipped. A popular estimate of Norcross in the United States is for 100,000 acres. That is far from correct. They are not fewer than 18,000,000 today in this country and rather than 9,000-colored babies born every day. It is only a question of a few short time before the Negotiated or the United States will be wondering what will happen with the Caucasian race problem that confronts us today.

This is one of the most beautiful and touching of the parable. Poetry, intrigue and the drama, have combined to give it an exeptional hold on the, the Christian imagination. In the world paths of the story in unpredictable. The occasion to so happily, the agents to interest, the issue so tragic. The story is a picture of an biblical wedding. Among those friends of the bride who wanted to join the prosecution were ten tormenting. While they were waiting, time on the procession he gave ever unknown they became drowsy, and slept in peace, knowing that, the shouts, and cries of the coming crowd would awaken them in time. They had no anxiety, the wires, because they had faith and were prepared, the foofish, by false security and by ignoring the future. The ten airguns had to wait till those manlight, when through the stilt all came shrill and clear, those peculiar skull, quarrying cries of joy, called, Zugaret, which are heard throughout the east on occasions of special rejoicing. (See Mey, 19:3-8.) And they heard the cry. Behold the bridegroom counteth, go out to meet him. The wise virgin trimmed and replei- ened their lamps with the oil which they had the forethought to bring with them. 10 The foolish found their lamps burn- ed out, but they had been too care- le to bring extra oil with, them. They begged oil of the wise, but they had none left, and advised the fool- sh to go to the source of supply where they should have gone earlier. While they were gone, the procession reached the destination those who were ready went in the marriage festival. And the door was shut: Like Esaul the foolish virgin came, too late for the blessing. They had thrown away their boots. 11 The Lord was soon to depart by the way of the desert. But he promised to return. He came back in the resurrection. He came in the coming of the Spirit of the day of Pentecost. He came in the destruction of Jerusalem. He is coming in glory at the last day when the kingdom shall come and his will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Every crisis of our lives, every opening of opportunity, every crisis of the world or the church may be called in its degree, a coming of the Lord whose providence is over all (1). The coming of the coming of the greatest praise and blessing. It is into the wedding festival, full of the most infinite. Even in the miserable comings and crises of our burdens there always is no disappointment, to something better, than we have had. Death—death to a gate, heaven (2).

It grew from a five column folio to a six column folio. Soon after two more pages were added. This continued about two years when it was increased to a six column quarto, its present size. Its other departments grew in proportion. Its manager and editor was compelled to act in every capacity from printer to editor, until the business having grown to such an extent that it was necessary to increase the number of employees. Even this entailed much work upon him along with other duties which prevented effective service to the patrons and the reaching of many of those who are its debtors. In order to give service to our patrons and place the business on a firmer basis it was necessary to have an associate editor and manager. For these positions Mr. J. H. Butler has been selected, and he will have full charge of this department commencing with this date. Mr. Butler is fully prepared for this work, as will be evinced by our patrons. To our local patrons, he needs no introduction, and it is assured that he will make a favorable impression on those out of the city. Any favor or courtesy shown Mr. Butler will be appreciated. It is also hoped that our patrons will appreciate our efforts for better services, and show it by a liberal financial response. An Atlanta colored journal has announced in bold face type under his cut, that ex-Governor Vardeman is a friend of the Negro. It is hoped that God will save the mark. The Republican party has no place for lily whiteism, even though Mr. Taft favors the displacing of colored Republicans. In this matter the President has betrayed one of the traditions of the party. For certain reasons we favored the ascendancy of Col. Roosevelt at the Republican State Convention of New York, but Vice President Sherman, who was the candidate of the Old Guard, is an exceptionally strong Republican and is greatly admired by the colored Republicans. The Republicans of South Carolina held their State convention at Columbia this week. About one hundred and fifty delegates were present among them about half dozen white Republicans. The most amusing incident connected with the meeting was the announcement that the convention would be controlled by the "lily whites," with only a half dozen being present. Some months ago it was proclaimed that there would be certain race discriminations at Oberlin College. This was received with regret by the friends of this great institution. More recently President King returned from his foreign trip and announced that colored students will be welcomed at the college, and that there will be no discrimination on the score of color or race in the college organizations. The public schools of Savannah open their doors for the coming year, Monday morning. A good start is the race half finished. Let us see to it that our children begin this year's school work by attending school at its opening. Let us further see to it that we not only number our children among those enrolled the opening day but let us have them there on time. Lets begin the year by teaching them the value of punctuality. And finally lets start them out Monday morning look neat and respectable, remembering that appearances count for a great deal. Last week there occurred in Tampa, Fla., one of the most friendish dual lynchings that this section of the south has seen. This time it was not the poor unfortunate black brute that was the victim of mob violence nor was it the result of the unpardonable crime. It happened to be two unlucky Italians who paid the death penalty and they suffered thus because, some say, they had injured one of the opposers of the cigar strike which was waged throughout southern Florida, while others there are who claim that they were members of the death dealing Black Hand society and were killed as an example to others of their order. In either case they had committed offenses punishable by law and it should have been the law that handled them. The time has long since passed when law and order must remain passive and allow such dastardly deeds to go unavenged. If as citizens, and by this we mean good law abiding citizens, we sit idly by and witness such villainous atrocious perpetrations to take place, then it will be, in the far remote future when such deeds must stop. DOESN'T it seem a little farfetched to think of the yellow peril in a city of Georgia. Whatever that disease is, and it must be a dreaded one since but a little time past it stirred up the entire western states and almost caused a panic in executive circles in Washington, it certainly has a seeming fondness for the intellectual side of life. Just think of one poor little, weak little, tiny little, innocent little peace of yellow humanity, causing such a commotion and all because she sought that which every member of the human race is entitled to, an education. Strange people are in this land of the free and home of the brave. Simply a lighter hue of the already dark problem, that's all. "There are ever two thousand colored children in this city, who are crowded out of school. In my mind it is cheaper to pay teachers to instruct them than in after years to pay for police and jails to punish them." This, short, pointed and yet all important excerpt from the speech of the president of the board of education of the largest and most progressive city in Georgia is a clear and most striking example of the general educational status of affairs in almost every city and town in the southern states. Here we have the unrestricted statement of a man whose experience in this line is unlimited and invaluable and who has made a careful and thorough study of this perplexing condition. Throughout this sunny southland of ours a similar lack of educational facilities for Negro children prevails. This indeed unfortunate that such should be the case and yet what is more to be deplored is the fact that while there are many leaders of thought and men of high public standing who hold like views, yet there are but few who have taken such a bold stand. Encompassed in this little sentence is the very essence of truth itself. Education has but one and the same effect upon the Negro as upon all other races. It has been the foundation upon which the caucasion has for years so magnificently built and upon which he has risen to heights of greatness. It has been the prop in his civilization that has raised him above the shoulders of other peoples and which has allowed him to sit undisturbed, unmolested upon a seat of vantage. In short it has been the mainstay of every upward move of civilization and must ever be such. Mr. Luther Z. Rosser, having a true and genuine interest in humanity, realizes that, even as it has helped the proud race to which he belongs, so will it help and prove the salvation of the Negro race. It will make the Negro youth a better and more useful citizen and will teach him to respect not fear the laws. To the Editor of THE TRIBUNE: To the Editor of THE TRIBUNE: Dear Sir; Please accept my hearty congratulations on your twenty sixth anniversary. May you and THE TRIBUNE live long and prosper. I was delighted to see an article in your last issue which spoke very highly of one of St. Stephen's old boys, Mr. Robert Gibson. I feel very proud of this young man, who deserves all that's being said of him. As a little tot he entered St. Stephen's Kindergarten, the first established for colored people in the State of Georgia. Here was laid the foundation on which he has builted so wisely. Completing the course of St. Stephen's school, he went to West Broad thence to Hampton where by doubling up he finished the course in less than the usual time. Since his return to the city he has been engaged in educational work, was a census enumerator, and having passed the teachers' examination at Chatham Academy last June is now on the eligible list. Do pardon me for telling this story of him: Recently a most distinguished clergyman, a man of wide experience paid me a visit. Who should bring him to the rectory but Robert Gibson. He said that on the train the young man had engaged him in conversation and when he found out that he was coming to me volunteered to show him the way so that he would have no trouble in finding me. The clergyman said that he hadn't spoken to him very long before he could see that he had had good training in good manner. If Mr. Robert Gibson's good manners are some of the fruits of St. Stephen's school surely parents ought to consider it a blessing to have such a school to which to send their children. Faithfully yours, Richard Bright St. Stephen's School. 313 E. Harris, St. Sunday, Oct. 2. 21st-Sunday after Pentecost and Feast of the Holy Rosary.

All the children are requested to be at the schools at 9 o'clock on Monday morning. F. A. B. Church Last Sunday Rev. WL Jones, aside from the regular sermons gave a little symposium of the work of the National Baptismal League which convened at New Orleans La. and held there he was a delegate. The usual inspiration was gained from his morning and evening talks and the attendance at both service was very good. Subjects for the two services were respectively: Stumble not in Christ, and Making Paths for Thy Feet. On Sunday afternoon the pastor and a delegation participated in the installation at the East Savannah Church, of Rev. P M Hunter, who succeeds the late Rev. E C Johnson. Monday evening the pastor officiated at St. Paul C M E Church. The third trial sermon of Bro. John Meyers was heard Tuesday evening and much success attended his efforts. Communion services to-morrow. Let everybody come out. Rally money expected. On October 4th will take place the great Autumn Revival services conducted by Rev. C H Phillips, of Richmond, Va. St. Phillip's Dots Rev. R. H. Singleton conducted both services Sunday and much good was derived from his sermons. Attendance was unusually large. Collection geogerous.

We are much elated over the repairs and renovations to our church, and feel much relieved now that its appearance is so neat and tidy. We are delighted with she promptness with which the ministers have all responded and pretty soon we shall be ready to make a permanent call. Sunday School from the first of October will meet at 3:30 instead of 4 o'clock. Full attendance desired every Sunday afternoon. Mt. Zion Baptist Church Beth-Eden Bapt. Church. The attendance last Sunday was fairly good, the pastor preaching at both hours.

After listening to many speakers led by Mr. Bryant, the gathering was asked to pay attention to a very interesting literary program.

Tis needless for us to try to impress upon the minds of the citizens of Savannah the value of this school for that is known to all too well. To this Institution belongs the honor and distinction of being the first school founded by the Freedmen's Aid Society in this part of the state. It was but a year or two after Emancipation, infact immediately following in the wake of Sherman's army, that the good and staid friends of the Negro in the north saw fit to establish this worthy institution, thereby giving the Negro the opportunity to fit himself to grapple with the serious problems of life. Among its graduates are numbered many of the most prominent citizens of Savannah. In short this institution has done and is doing a noble work and deserves our heartiest support. Prof. Weld, the able principal of the school for the past two years has returned to the city and with his excellent corps of teachers will resume the work. We extend to teachers and students a sincere wish for a most pleasant and profitable school year. Apollo Dancing Academy The opening of the Apollo Dancing Academy, Wednesday night was one of the grandest affairs of the season. Music and classic dancing were the duco plac of the evening.

The cozy corner, a especially, was furnished off with a green plush parlor suit and large davenports and massive portiers, the floor of which was covered with Japan oak and Persian rugs. The second waltz was one of the Duco Chantz of the evening. Watch THE TRIBUNE for the grand monthly rehearsal, which will take place soon. Locals.

The grand opening of our fine millinery store, 464 West Broad street, conducted by Mrs. Greene and Mrs. Allen was quite a success. From early Monday morning till late at night, the polite management of this worthy enterprise was kept busy showing their fine and large assortment of goods. It was a revelation to the gentler side of our colored population to learn how well stocked and finely appointed store these ladies are running. Everything was in ship shape condition and not a flaw or hitch spoiled the arrangements of the day. A tremendous crowd of ladies, young and old, witnessed this beautiful and creditable display of head gear, and on every side could be heard words of praise from this most critical and scrutinizing half of our people. It was truly magnificent in every sense of the word and the management wishes to take this opportunity to thank all who contributed to its success. Now that we have seen the fine showing these ladies have made, let's get busy and patronize them.

They are not ashamed to be seen anywhere—to stand up for the most critical examination. They know that ready-made clothes can only properly fit one man out of a hundred and they don't want to be one of the ninety-nine others. Stop to think: has another man's suit ever fitted you, not matter what's his size? Didn't the collar stand off at the neck? Weren't the sleeves too long or too short, the back too tight, or didn't the trousers look wrong? How can you expect, then, to be satisfied with such a suit even if new. On the other hand, the merchant tailor not only fits every measure, but you have the opportunity of preserving your individuality and suiting your personality in every particular. Do yourself justice. Have your suit tailored to order. Use good material. You will appreciate it as long as you have it. Drop in and see our Rent; Sale and Want.

We have many useful men in our ranks all achieving great success in their various avenues of life; in industrialism, the higher Christian education, finance, ethics, and those things that go to make up an enlightened and higher civilized people are being pushed to the front, educating the hand, the head and heart of the race. Let not any in the sphere of life become envious of the feautous of the success that others are making in different spheres. All are builders and upon the solidity of the foundation upon which the one builds, depends in a large measure the success of the other. There is work enough and room enough for every leader of the race without antagonizing the success of the other. If Dr. Washington is at compiling a great good for the race along one line, let us, as lovers of the race, get under him and push him higher and higher, until he shall have reached the apex. If Professor Dubois, Doctor Bowen, Doctor Diggs, Professor Kelley, Milley, and a host of others are doing a great work for the higher education of the Negro, let us buy them God-speed and push them higher, until they, too, shall have reached the plane of educational attainments for the race. And what is true of the educator of the race is also true of the financial leaders. There is unnecessary and uncalled for bickorings with the leaders of the race along this line. There is room enough for all to work without antagonizing the alliances of each other. No true-hearted, trustworthy man will try to down a leader, under whom he works, and remain in his employment. The act would be that of a traitor, and no traitor can ever expect to get the confidence of the people. As we have said above, all cannot be leaders; some must be followers. In the beginning, all were not leaders, there was one Saviour our Lord Jesus Christ; there was one Moses, Aaron, and then came Josua in their lines. Soil is at this day and time—whom God has designated as leader, for them lead until the time comes when he shall appoint us another. The great obstacle that has been such a cursus in the race, is so many of us wanting to lead, and many among us will strive to down the other fellow, fair if we can, but loul if we must. A representative or a person or thing must be either hot or cold. Those whom God has sent forth as his representatives, can't represent God and If you are the devil's representative, say so, and the world will respect you for your stand. Brethren, this must not be so. However eminent our qualifications are, however bright our abilities may shine, let us follow those in the lead and give them our help, our aid, and influence. Our light, not be put under a bushier, the world will see it and in the time we shall be rewarded for what we have done. Look at the condition of the face from every standpoint today. It seems as though the whole world has drawn the leeward. For opposition against the Negro race. When you strike one of the opposing race, in the distant climes of the "Sunny, South," you have struck the same nationality on the snowy peaks of Maine. Let the same condition of affairs govern the coloured race of America. Here is the reason why we should obey a power in this land, provided the ten millions of Negroes were united. We are now demanding social Grass grows on the side of the earth much less whiskers grow on the face of a man. However, grass is always green, and no one ever wears green whiskers except a slapstick comedian, for all that, however, grass does not grow gallway style, nor a burn-side roof or a tache and goutte. Grass is being by cows. When cut and dried and baled it is called baled hay and is stored in contoured milch cows. Grass is removed from the lawn by means for the neighbors, children for a lawn mower, lawn movers are pushed by young men who are studying for the ministry, and other men have the care of idols, feature for a lawn mower. Immediately after out, the grass, the young men collect for it. Taking collection is part of ministerial training. Grass is also immovable to sign paintings, which enables them to dispose of placards ordering people to keep off of it. WHAT CONSTITUTES NEGRO? Washington, The United States Supreme court may be called on to decide just what constitutes a "Negro to the United States. On the one of the opening of the public schools and the civil litigation and courts the parents of Israel. While the child having been negroed, Negro by the District supreme court because her proportion of Negro blood has one-Ameen. So when the school-dega open to illeges, as are other nationalities. We ask him the same spirit that governs and rules the destinies of other races, govern ours. If our people are mistreated in Maine, let those of the race in Florida he concernen. In conclusion we say in the name of God, in the name of all that is reasonable, in the name of the race we claim to love and advocate for, in the name of our little ones that crawl around our knees, in the name of our homes that we are trying to foster and make happy and cosy, in the name of the generations yet to come to read the pages of history which we nage made, we were upon the stage of action, we appeal to you gentlemen, throughout the length and breadth of this great country, cease the blistering spirit that seems to dominate among so many of you, lay down your arms of rebellion against one another in the race, come together as one united band, as in one solid phalanx, and fight for one general cause and principle. Act that cause be for the maintenance of the rights and the spirit of the American Negro: Richmond Reformer. Lynching Statistics. Eleven Whites and Fifty-Nine Negroes Record Highest Since 1904. Lynchings in 1909 numbered 70, the highest number recorded since 1904, says the Washington Herald. The victims numbered eleven whites and fifty-nine Negroes. The Lynchings occurred in twelve states and one territory, New Mexico. As in previous years crimes or alleged crimes against white women and murders caused most of these summary executions. One case, occurring in Calio, ill, combined both causes and resulted in the placing of the city under military control for several days. The Cairo lynchings were the only cases that occurred north of the Ohio river during the year. Several double lynchings occurred at various points in the south, and Oklahoma furnished a quarrelple lynching with four cattle men as the victims. In the following record the word lynching has been held to apply only to the summary punishment inflicted by a mob of by any number of citizens on a person alleged to have committed a crime. By states the seventy lynchings cases here recorded are classified as follows: Georgia, 11; Texas, 10; Florida, 8; Louisiana, 7; Mississippi, 7; Alabama, 6; Oklahoma, 5; Kentucky, 4; South Carolina, 3; Arkansas, 3; Illinois, 2; New Mexico, 2; Missouri, 1, and West Virginia, 1. Not a case of mob rule is recorded against Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland. The Birthday-Child. What shall we give to the birthday child? A blessing, a kiss, or a golden ring? A kiss lasts only a second or two. The ring is lost ere the year is through. But the blessing of God is a precious thing. So the blessing of God is the gift we bring. To the child that is gentle and sweet and mild, To the dear little, good little birthday child! Alice Corbin in Woman's Home Companion for September. YOUR SELF-CONTROL "And to knowledge add 'temperance.' Temperance is self-control. Each one in himself a whole army of faculties, thoughts, feelings, purposes, passions." The efficiency of an army depends on its power to maintain order and march, together. The general, must command, and the ranks must obey, or he must go down in defeat. The man must keep all his powers in subordination—and, make them move together, or he will go to pieces. If one of his lower powers, such as appetite or anger, gets the better of him he is gone. A man's power, is in proportion to his self-control. However, strong he may be in faculties, if he lacks self-control, he is weak. A man in confusion is not acting much, though it takes ten to hold him. He is the strong man that can hold himself. If one cannot control himself, he cannot control anything else. Richmond-Reformer. ISSUE, BEFORE, HIGH COURT, first issue, will not be among them, thousands, of the children in the Dis- tor, her parents declared, they never would consent to her attendance at a Negro school. One sixteenth Negro Blood makes a child, Negry in the district, of Colum- bia, according to a declaration by Justice Wright of the District sup- reme court. In the Will case, which was handed in last June, The Dis- trict court, of Jamestown, will pass upon the cash he sent in court. Flaxseed Tea. When you feel "worn out" get one bound of flaxseed whole and grind it fine through an old coffee grinder. Take two teaspoonfuls after each meal. You will soon feel strong and well. Sweet Sandwiches. Among the new sweet sandwich fillings are candied ginger, hard pudding, sauce, oil, butter and sugar, creamed and flavored with a little jelly, sherry or nutmeg and candied orange peel, minced and sprinkled on Neufchatel cheese which has been molested with a little melted butter or rich cream. Apricot Jam. Apricots make a fine jam. Peel, stone, and sprinkle with sugar, allowing a pound of sugar to every pound and, a half of the fruit. Let stand over night, add the blanched pits and simmer an hour. Put the fruit in pots, cook the syrup a little longer, pour over the fruit and seal. Pea Soup. Break up one quart of fresh, well-washed-peas with the pods. Cook in salted, water until tender. Press through a sieve and return the pulp to the kettle with the water in which the peas and pods were cooked. Add a little butter and pepper and thicken slightly with a little flour or corn-starch dissolved in cold water. Gooseberry Jelly. Remove the flower and stem ends, wash the fruit and put in the preserving kettle with sufficient cold water to just show among the berries; cook until the juice is well freed, then strain through a stout bag. Place the juice in kettle, with cup for cup of sugar, and boll fifteen minutes, skimming often. Pour into jelly glasses and seal when cold. Cream Cabbage. Beat together the yolks of two eggs, one-half cup of sugar, one-half cup of vinegar; butter size of an egg, salt, and a little cayenne pepper. Put the mixture into a saucepan and stir until it boils; then stir in one cup of cream; let it boil. Pour over the cabbage while hot. Potato Water for Bread If the water in which potatoes are boiled (one of the potatoes mashed being added to it) is substituted for milk in making bread, the bread will remain moist longer, according to the advice of an excellent cook. This same cook does not melt her lard before adding it to the bread, incorporating it with the flour as in making pastry. Almond Soup. A very good and delicate soup for a summer dinner is cream of almonds, for which this is the method: Simmer a cup of almonds which have been blanched and chopped fine in a quart of rich milk or thin creams. Thicken with butter and flour blended in the usual way and strain while pouring it into cups or plates. A little whipped cream may be added to each portion if desired, though this is not essential to its excellence. Sweet Potatoes Grilled. Some day as a change from sweet potatoes baked or boiled, now that this toothsome vegetable is once more with us, fry sweet potatoes grilled. Boll some rather large ones thirty-five minutes in slightly salted water. Oil the inside of a broiler with olive oil, arrange the potato slices on it and broil for five minutes on each side. Boil-in 'a teaspoonful of melted butter, removing from the fire and serve. Ribbon Sandwiches. These are made in different ways, varying both bread and filling according to fancy. For instance, take six thin slices of bread buttered on both sides, Spread layers of develd ham or chicken between, then press the entire sandwich. Slice crosswise, making thin, ribbon-like sandwiches. Or use alternately nices, wafer thin or white, and brown, bread, with a filling of cream cheese and chopped nuts or olives. Cheese and Nut Salad. Take some soft cheese, not too strong in flavor, and mix it with cream, until the right consistency to form into soft, little balls. Shell walnuts and press half of a walnut on each side of cheese balls. Arrange them on lettuce leaves. Escalloped Chicken. Take equal part of, cold chicken, boiled rice or macaroni and tomato sauce; put in layers; in shallow dish and cover with buttered crumbs. Bake until brown. Cream Peppermints. Take the white of one egg, three tablespoons of water, one pound of confectioners' sugar, or more; if needed, make it still enough to roll out on the cake board one-eighth of an inch thick. Use granulated sugar on the board and sprinkle on top, before rolling out. Cut with salt, shaker, cover and set away to harden. Use 1/4" arbs for oil of peppermint to flavor, and bread it all together in the bowl as you would bread. Then put on board and roll. No cooking. EDUCATIONAL PARAGRAPHS While the Negro has made most remarkable progress in decreasing the illiteracy of the race the end is not yet, and will not be for some time to come. The ratio of ignorance has been reduced to less than half, but there are perhaps as many Negroes today who cannot read and write as there were at the emancipation. Four million of ignorant and unlettered men, women and children are alike a racial and national menace. Let us not deceive ourselves, the educational program of the Negro is just well started. We must make an effort. It will require heroic effort for several generations to make fast that which has been achieved during the past forty years. There should be no relaxing of effort, until the last man, woman and child has been reached. This is a big job, a job that belong more to the race, than to philanthropists. The Negro must awaken to the imperative and immediate need of an educational program which shall be race-wide. race-wide. Whatever else the future holds in storm for the Negro, his educational program must be more and more self-supporting. As we get wealth we must provide educational advantages for our children. Self-respect and common sense demand this. We can not maintain our self-respect if we permit others to do in the least that which we can do for ourselves. On the other hand we can not expect to be fed all the while by philanthropy. Philanthropy will not only tire but justly will hold off to see what has been accomplished. We must therefore do more for ourselves educationally. Where the school is short we must lengthen it. Where incompetents are employed they must be discharged and funds provided for a better grade of teaching. Where high schools and colleges have been maintained for the elevation of our youth we must begin to raise endowments. "The education of any race is defective unless it is moral as-well as intellectual. Education should, aim to make character. Mr. Edward O. Slisson, in the Atlantic Monthly, discussing "An Educational Emergency," says among other things: "The place formerly belonging to moral training is now occupied by intellectual work. Moral education has not been deliberately rejected nor recklessly thrown away; it has been crowded out. The intellectual contest of the curriculum has grown to such vast proportions, that it has usurped almost the whole attention and energy of the school. "This then is the emergency as we see it: increased demand upon character—and diminished care for the cultivation of character. Fortunately, signs are not wanting of a widespread awakening to the seriousness of the situation. We are beginning to realize that what has been thereby an article in our educational creed must become a working principle in our educational practice; that the final question regarding education is whether it avails to produce the type of character required by the republic and the race." Ignorance, where opportunities for education exists, is a crime and should be made a misdemeanor punishable by law. Bishop McDowell says: "Education for the Negro no longer needs to be arraigned. The results are the results of sufficient and unanswerable argument in its favor."—S. W. Christian Advocate. Temperance Topics It is charged that 1,000 Italians were sent to Rockford, Ill., in the winter to clear away the snow, and that they were kept in Rockfort until the election. After voting for the saloons they immediately left the city. H. L. Swift, keeper of the Boyne City, Beulah home for boys, said recently in an address in Detroit, Mich., that 50 per cent. of the 1,600 boys that have passed through the home under his care were there because of intoxicating drink in some form or other. During the year [1909] there were 707 liquor sellers sent to jail in the state of Maine. This looks, as if the law is receiving some notice at the hands of the authorities there. Whatever is morally wrong can never be politically right. It is, also impossible for men engaged in law and ville pursuits to entertain noble, and generous sentiments. For this reason nearly all requitable secret orders refuse to accept as members saloon keepers. Just so long as the federal government continues to sell intoxicants in the dry territory, there will be difficulty in enforcing the state prohibition law. WINNOWED WITTICISMS Didn't Cook 'Em...Right "Of all the tasteless, mussy, mud-soaked, greasy fish in the world, the German carp is the worst!" ejaculated one of the piscatorial enthusiasts seated about a tavern fire. "They are all right if cooked right," disputed another follower of Izaak. "Cooked right! Great leaping tarpon! I've et 'em fried in the choicest Jersey butter, broiled with the best country, bacon, baked with mountain sage dressing," and toasted on a spruce fork over a camp fire, and I tell you I never bit into a carp when it tasted like anything fit to eat." "Now, the only way to cook a carp," continued the man with the recipe, "is to clean a nice five-pounder carefully, slash it several times crosswise, and insert bits of salt, pork, Season the whole with melted butter, sprinkle it with pepper and salt, and stump with onion dressing. Then cut a homlock board two feet long, two inches thick, and ten inches wide. lay the fish on this and insert in a-red-hot oven. Let the fish bake for 30 minutes; then take it out and turn it over. Baste with butter and return to the oven. After twenty minutes take it out carefully, throw the fish away and eat the "board."—Topeka Capital. What a Volcano Is. It was at a session of the Northwest school this afternoon when Miss Bertha V. Smith, a teacher, was drilling a class in geography that a funny description of a volcano was given. The 14 pupils in B class were each giving their opinions of what a volcano was and what caused the eruptions to take place. Sadie Williams, who lives at Fifteenth and Wood streets, was the last one, seated along the recitation bench. "What do you think causes a volcanic eruption, Sadie?" asked the teacher. The reply came very slowly. "I know volcanoes are very bad things, teacher. They are caused by saliva which flows from the vatican, which gets too hot and explodes." The teacher couldn't laugh, then, but after she dismissed the class she had all that was coming in that line—Philadelphia Times. Convincing. The aviator dipped a little lower. "What place is this?" he screamed to a man on a rocky ledge below. The man howled back a name, as long as your arm. The avitor flew still lower. "A little slower, please." The man gave the name a little slower and it took just forty-six seconds to round it up. "Get it?" the avitor's partner asked. "No, I didn't get it," the avitor replied; "and this clearly convinces me that we are somewere over the coast of Wales."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Why She Couldn't Speak A photographer in an Iowa town was called upon not long ago to make some pictures of an old lady of seventy years or so, but, of surprising agility and quickness of perception. The picture man was, therefore, somewhat surprised to find that no words of address could induce the old lady to speak until the operation was completed. Then she put her fingers into her mouth, whence she withdrew several wads of paper. "You wouldn't have me photographed with my cheeks falling in, would you?" she asked the photographer, "I just stuffed two pages of a newspaper in my mouth to fill out." Easily Solved. A New York poet at the Authors' club in Seventh avenue told a Conan Doyle story: "Sir Arthur Conan Doyle," he said, "sat at a dinner on his last visit here beside a lady who asked leave to consult him about some thefts. "My detective powers," he replied, "are at your service, madam." "Well," said the lady, "frequent and mysterious thefts have been occurring at my house for a long time. Thus there disappeared last week, a motor horn, a broom, a box of golf balls, a left riding boot, a dictionary and a half dozen tin-plates." "Aha;" said the creator of Sherlock Holmes, "the case, madam," is quite clear. You keep a goat. William asked his grandmother, "Do glasses magnify, grandmother?" "A little, my boy." "Well, when you are packing, my lunch for school, I wish you would take them off, please," he answered — Exchange. The Ignorant UnbeHeaven. The late Nell Burges used to clinch with an anecdote, his claim that atheists were always Ignorant. "A coarse, swaggering fellow," he would begin, "declared in a barber shop: "I don't believe in no hereafter. You live and die, and that's the end of ye. "Why, you must be a Unitarian, George, the barber said. "Huh, not me, was the reply. I'm too fond of me meat for that." ١٠٠ A number of attempts have been made in Hong Kong to establish a brewery, but the first successful one is the Oriental brewery, which began operation early in 1969. The buildings are extensive, and the brewery installation is of the most modern American can type, having a capacity of 100,000 barrels of beer a year. American capital is understood to be back of the enterprise, which is already successfully competing with the Japanese and Tsingtau beers. In ancient times it was customary at the beginning of "dog days" to sacrifice a brown dog to appease the wrath of Sirius, the dog star, so soon as that star became, visible to the naked eye. Sirius was supposed to cause the hot, sultry weather, usually attendant on its appearance and the ancients believed, that on the first morning of its rising the sea boiled, wine turned sour, dogs grew mad and that man became afflicted with burying fevers, hysterics and frenzies. Argos a festival was held during the dog days: called Cynophonites, from Greek words signifying "killing dogs" when it was the custom to kill every canine creature that was met with. The eight banks of Scotland are practically one bank. The managers of the principal banks, lying in Edinburgh or Glasgow, meet frequently to fix the rate of discount on loans and the amount of interest to be allowed on deposits. The rate of interest charged by Scotch banks is on an average, 1-2 of 1 per cent. higher than the English rate. After a hard fight with the board of education, Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superintendent of schools of Chicago, has succeeded in having adopted a rule that hereafter all applicants for principalships must be college graduates. In defending the new order, Mrs. Young said: "There are many principals who are among the best we have, and yet are not college graduates, but there is growing a broader demand for better trained principals and teachers." The large crucifix which was placed, a fortnight ago, on the front of the St Michael's Episcopal church, at Edinburg, was removed on Saturday at the request of the civil and ecclesiastical authorities. The erection of the crucifix evoked an outbreak of Protestant opposition and about one hundred police were nightly engaged in preserving order. The authorities had anticipated an organized demonstration on Sunday. An interesting feature in the patent developments of the year in Great Britain was the number of applications filed in the field of aegonautics, being more than three times the number filed during the preceding year. Arizona has some of the greatest scenery in the worldly the famous Grand Canyon of the Colorado and the wonderful Chalcedony county, with trunks four feet thick, cracked into exquisite colored blocks, being prominent. A new extraordinary light bullet is to be adopted for the English army weighing 160 grains, as against 210 grains of bullet now in use. It permits a heavier firing charge, gives greater muzzle velocity and longer effective range. The Mexican government has sent out an agricultural expert to lecture in the principal towns of Sonora to induce the farmers of the state to raise products for the American market, especially early vegetables, lemons, dates, figs, etc. A Kansas woman has a patent on a fan provided with a sheet of absorbent material to hold water to cook the air which it agitates. Antidotes for seasickness are in great demand in France. A retired naval surgeon has been advising that compression of the stomach will inevitably prevent any qualms on the water. But no half measures will suffice. The traveler must abstain from food for eight hours before embarking, then swathe himself in a bandage of webbing drawn as tightly as he can bear it and twisted around the body some half dozen times. According to Russian law, no man or woman who has attained the age of eighty can contract a legal marriage. No other country nowadays imposes such a restriction. In ancient Rome, however, legislation on this point was even more stringent, the maximum age limit for men being sixty and for women fifty. Former Deputy Attorney General James A. Stranahan was host of a groundhog supper at his Harrisburg (Ra.) home recently with Attorneys B. M. Nead and C. E. Blackenstein, as his guests, but they speak in highest terms of the flavor of the hog. It was cooked to the "queen's taste. Increases occurred in 125 of the chief. articles imported to the Philippines from the United States in 1909. Import'd duffles collected in 1909 amounted to $6,901,970, an increase over 1908 of $533,149. A Swiss physician says that any one who has been bitten by a poisonous snake can be kept alive for ten hours or more by artificial respiration and so saved until other, remedies may be applied. He says that every one who lives, in a snake, region should learn how to help snake victims in this way. A "Yep, Bill fell inter a beer vat an' nearly drowned; but dat ain't de wurst of it. Dey pumped him out when dey rescued him!" Tuberculosis In the West Indies Associations for the Prevention of tuberculosis have been formed in Cuba, Porto Rico and Trinidad. In Cuba there are over 40,000 deaths from tuberculosis every year, and the death rate from this disease is nearly three times as high in the United States. In Porto Rico there are over 6,000 deaths every year out of 1,000,000 inhabitants. In Trinidad, the death rate from tuberculosis in Port-au-Spain, the only place where figures are available, was 4.75 in 1909, nearly three times the rate in New York city. Conditions in the other islands of the West Indies, where no active campaign against tuberculosis has been undertaken is even worse. The chief reason for this high mortality is found in the unsanitary, dark, and poorly ventilated houses of the natives of the islands. Not on Your Life. An Irishman obtained a position in a skyscraper that was being built. He had to carry mortar up to the top floor. One day he went up and couldn't find his way down. The boss missed him and called up to him: "Pat," said the boss, "why don't you come down?" "I don't know the way," said Pat. "Well, come down the way you went up." "Faith, and I won't," said Pat, "for I came up head first." Even the Children. Ex-Governor Pennypacker, condemning in his witty way the American divorce evil, told at a Philadelphia luncheon an appropriate story. "Even our children," he said, "are becoming infected. A Kensington schoolteacher, examining a little girl in grammar, said: "What is the future of love? "A divorce," the child answered promptly." Man's Many Attributes What a chimera, then, is man! What a novelty, what a monster, what a chaos, what a subject of contradiction, what a prodigy! A judge of all things, a feeble worm of the earth, depository of the truth, cloaca of uncertainty and error, the glory and the shame of the universe. The Part of It. "I wonder if that sour Miss Oldgirl ever had any salad days?" "I am sure she had the vinegar and peppery part of them." Happiness grows at our own firesides, and is not to be picked up in strangers' galleries.—Douglas Jerrold. AFTER SUFFERING FOR YEARS Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Park Rapids, Minn.—"I was sick for years while passing through the Change of Life and was hardly able to be around. After taking six bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I gained 20 pounds, am now able to do my own work to feel well."—Mrs. Ed. LA Dou, Park Rapids, Minn. Brookville, Ohio.—"I was irregular and extremely nervous. A neighbor recommended Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to me and I have become regular and my nerves are much better."—Mrs. R. KINNISON, Brookville, Ohio. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, contains no narcotic or harmful drugs, and to-day holds the record for the largest number of actual cures of female diseases we know of, 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, irregularities, periodic pain, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration. Every suffering woman owes it to herself to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial. If you want special advice write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for it, free and always helpful. Dr. Washington Abroad Dr. Washington Abroad After one of the most strenuous and productive years of his career, Dr. Boock T. Washington left recently for a six-weeks' tour of Europe. and productive years of his career, Dr. Bochter.T. Washington left recently for a six-weeks' tour of Europe. His absence, from this country and his more immediate work will furnish him with a reat and diversion of which he at present is urgently in need. We, with millions of other Americans without regard to race, earnestly hope that his travel through the European capitals will be a real vacation, and that he will return thoroughly refreshed to continue his great service to his race and nation. Doctor Washington, though yet in his early fifties and stalwart and hearty though he is, cannot but be fagged by the multifarious cares and responsibilities of his educational efforts, and by the great burden of his race's uplift exerted through such channels as the Business League, the Farmers' Conference, and his constant public speaking. Now in the prime of his life he is just in the midst of his many and mighty labors. But that he may carry his course to completion, comparatively young though his is, he will increasingly need to conserve his tremendous energy. Doctor Washington will be feted as he deserves to be by the leaders in the official and educational circles of the Old World. And everywhere he goes he will be a sentiment-maker for his race. The entire race trusts that his trip abroad will be as pleasant as it is profitable. Negro Womanhood. I cannot refrain from pressing the claim of the Negro woman for recognition upon all occasions. Our female element under mother influences attends school and church, eschews and brothels, stays at home, and to our shame is the backbone of the Negro race today. Were it not for the Negro woman, the outlook would be dark. I am aware of the breadth of my speech when I say that the world has never furnished a higher womanhood under like conditions than the Negro woman of the south today. With strong appetites and passions, penniless, homeless, often working on "starvation wages;" amid debasing influences, in the race and out; exposed everywhere, stumbling, falling, rising, fleeing—she goes on washing, cooking, plowing, sewing, reaping—educating her daughter; building the cottage; erecting churches and schools; often supporting husband and son—this black woman deserves the admiration of angels! Every business man will say that a Negro woman's word is worth just the value she puts upon it. Herein we see the nobility of white southern womanhood and lifting up her offspring of today—still lifting her up, regardless of great drawbacks and weights. People who hold nothing sacred can never amount to anything. Honor or our good men, our struggling young men, exalt our children and make sacred our women. This done, the battle is won.—S. W. Christian Advocate. The Philosopher Motherhood is the first tenderness which God shows his creatures. Respect the fellow who has no self-respect and you may preadventure wake it. Misjudgment occurs so frequently that it's odd we seem not to be in fear of ourselves. In the days of the blooming of the magnolia every day tasks should be duties sanctified. The whimsical man is lovable only to those before whom he hides none of his whimsicalities. Calamity always hits the fellow who looks down for it. Don't take a fellow's troubles worse than he himself does. Summer girls have emerged from the modiste's band boxes. The man with the suit case may be a green one or one on the way to do the green ones. Fidelity is almost obsolete, and if it weren't part of insurance parlance, it would stand for next to nothing. The fellow without a grain of honesty about him is always looking for the honest man, and such is the world's balance. Get away from the groucher, or you'll miss the optimistic parade. The inquisitive individual suffers more than physical pain when he meets willing mute. The things which we think worth while, time destroys, and we lose the wish of possession. Carry your burdens lightly so that you may some day help your neighbor when he staggers beneath his. Don't blame the fellow who's down—he's cussing himself all along, nine times-out of ten. The days of yesterday have a way of looking brighter, but that's a sign of clogged imagination. The pages of history are batches of short memories which the present incidents are said to repeat. Solitude is preferred to boredom only by those who are entertaining to be constantly-engaged. You Look Prematurely Old AN EXCUSE FOR EACH.

"Mistah Jenkins," asked an old negro of Atlanta of his employer, "would you be so good, sah, as to explain to me 'bout this wireless, telegraph-business I hears 'em-a-talking 'bout?" "Why, certainly, Henry," responded the employer, "though I can do so only in a general way, as I myself know little of the subject. The thing consists in sending messages through the air instead of over wires." "Yassah," said Henry, "I knows 'bout dat; but, sah, what beats me is how dey fasten the air to the poles!" 2 PERMANENT CURE. No Sign of Kidney Trouble for Over a Year. Mrs. C. J. Becker, 33 Chestnut Sq., Jamala Plains, Boston, Mass., says; 'I was a physical wreck. I could not have walked a block had my life depended upon it.

This is the greatest known way for undecided people to make up their minds. None but a strong-minded woman can ever decide which of two or three hats she likes "the best," particularly if they are all comely. Popular belies have been known to have similar troubles with their sweethearts. Which do I like best is often a momentous question. Why not try the other way? Decide which, of men, or hats, or 'attractive "dates" you like the worst, and then proceed to eliminate. From there you can factor out in the grade of desizability, until you actually find yourself at a decision, because it, whatever it is, is the only one left. The process is delightfully simple. African Logic. Dusky Driver (ushering ladies from steamer)—Yes, marm—dis way, marm; ca'lage to de hotel. First Lady (hesitating at step)—And what will you charge? D. D—One dollar, marm.

A medical authority kindly assures us that as long as cheese isn't decayed it will not affect the health of the consumer. This is a fact that we have suspected for a considerable time. But how is the ordinary cheese epicure to detect the difference—unless he waits for results?

Floral, Ark.—"Until a month ago," writes Mrs. Vlola Baker, of this place, "I was in very bad health. I was so weak and nervous that I was unable to do my housework. I tried Cardul, according to directions, and now I am in good health and recommend, your medicine to all my friends. I gave Cardul to three of my friends to try, and they all say it helped them." Society and household cares make nervous, weak women, who suffer great pain and misery, much of which can be avoided by taking Cardul. Worry and overwork act on your nerves like rust on metal, and they simply go to pieces. You can't always make, rusty metal bright again, and sometimes you can't get your nerves straightened out again, so better begin before the trouble goes too deep. For half a century, Cardul has been used with benefit, by sick women, thousands of whom have written, telling of the good results obtained. Doesn't this mean something to you?

PAGE FROM ANCIENT HISTORY Incident of Hannibal's Career That Writers Appear to Have Overlooked. Hannibal and his staff were pacing merrily over the Alps on their faithful war elephants. Suddenly a man with a tin badge and chin whiskers rushed into the roadway and held up his hand. "You stop right where you be!" he cried. "Why should I stop?" thundered the great Carthaginian as his mahout hooked the elephant's ear. "You're exceedin' the speed limit," replied the man with the star. "An' I'm a duly appointed constable, by heck." Hannibal was so overcome by this amusing holdup that he tossed a bag of gazolous to the officer and laughing hysterically rode away. Later on, however, his indignation uppercut his sense of humor, and he proceeded to slam the life out of the Roman consuls and their picked veterans, forcing the fighting to the very gate of shuddering Rome—Boston Traveler. NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT "My little son, a boy of five, broke out with an itching rash. Three doctors prescribed for him, but he kept getting worse until we could not dress him any more. They finally advised me to try a certain medical college, but its treatment did no good. At the time I was induced to try Cutcura he was so bad that I had to cut his hair off and put the Cutcura Ointment of him on bandages, as it was impossible to touch him with the bare hand. There was not one square inch of skin on his whole body that was not affected. He was one mass of sores. The bandages used to stick to his skin and in removing them it used to take the skin off with them, and the screams from the poor child were heartbreaking. I began to think that he would never get well, but after the second application of Cutcura Ointment I began to see signs of improvement, and with the third and fourth applications the sores commenced to dry up. His skin peeled off twenty times, but it finally yielded to the treatment. Now I can say that he is entirely cured, and a stronger and healthier boy you never saw than he is to-day, twelve years or more since the cure was effected. Robert Wattam, 1148 Forty-eighth St., Chicago, Ill., Oct. 9, 1909." The Explanation Old Podkins lay back in his chair in calm content, and though his wife was quite near him he was happy, for she had not broken the silence for nearly five minutes. He had been married for five-and-twenty long years, and Mrs. Podkins, almost daily during 24 of them, had disturbed the domestic peace by a too full exercise of her tongue. "My dear," broke in Mrs. P——, thinking it time she said something to interrupt the quiet. "I see by the papers that a petrified jaw two yards long has been found in Cornwall." "What!" cried Podkins, starting, up. "Now I know your secret. But you never told me your ancestors came from that part of the world!" TO DRIVE OUT MALARIA AND BUILD UP THE SYSTEM CHILL TONIC.

She was only a little girl, and very enthusiastic over the long-looked-for opportunity to go into the water. They came too late the previous day for a dip in the surf, so Anna was up early, and as she put on her bathing suit while the rest were at breakfast some one questioned her as to her haste. "Well, you see," replied the thoughtful child, "I want to hurry and go in before so many people get in and get the water cold." The Effects. "I have come to you, my friend, for comfort.

The trustees are sanguine of improvement, along all lines. The first assessment for the support of the Orphan home is now due. The officers of the several lodges should see that the same is forwarded to Brother Spencer at once in order that the work of maintaining and educating our orphans may continue. As Masons we are proud of the harmony that exists among us, and the confidence that the rank and file of the craft repose in those whom they have entrusted with affairs. J. E.

They give the best to the white man to every other man who seeks shelter in their humble cabins, or wherever they meet them. Our race is not a bloody race, and if it remains true to its own nature, it will teach the races of the world that only spiritual forces conquer. This is a high mission. Let others be superior to us in the slaughter of human beings, but let no race be superior to ours in the service and valuation of the human family. Guns Only one more month remains before the ending of the Masonic year. Officers should see that the year be successful by redoubling their energies. Past Master S. H. Haines of John Wesley Lodge at Register was in the city Monday and Tuesday. Brother Haines assisted at the cornerstone laying on Monday, and the brethren were glad to welcome him among them. He is one of the best worshipful masters in the state, and has done much for the building up of his lodge. Brother Haines is among the Masons in whom we repose the strictest confidence. We are always glad to see him. By dispensation issued by Grand Master Butler to Pythagoras Lodge No. 11, a special communication of the Grand-Lodge was convened for the purpose of laying the cornerstone of Butler Presbyterian church on Monday afternoon. Rev. L. A. Townsley acted as grand master and the ceremony was beautifully carried out. This church is pastored by Rev. S. T. Redd, worshipful master of Pythagoras lodge, and the brethren were glad to do him honor. Following is the program as carried out. Doxology—Congregation. Biology—Subregistration Invocation—Rev. R. H.

Lodge-room Masonry is a splendid thing. The correct and impressive rendering of the ritual is truly attractive. The good cheer and good fellowship that prevail within the lodge are worth much to Masonry and to humanity. In short, we need practical Masonry.—Herald. Let not jealousy or rivalry mar our brotherly regard. In non-essentials, unity. In all things—charity. LOYALTY. Loyalty is a great element of strength in a Masonic lodge. First, loyalty to the principles of the fraternity. The man who lives up to the doctrines taught him in lodge will be loyal to his country and his friends. We must be loyal to the lodge, stand by the master and the officers, and on all occasions and under all circumstances defend the good name of the lodge.—The Ashler. The period when Roman Catholic priests were members of Masonic lodges in Ireland is not so remote, as many imagine. Here in Toronto there are two, Masons living that sat in lodges that had priests members and others of that faith for officers. Toronto Freemason. NOTES ON RACIAL PROGRESS. Reported By the National Negro Business League. Business League. The Local Business league of Waterbury, Conn., incorporated with $10,000 capital stock has put up a thirty-room flat for the accommodation of six families.

The Texas Negro Bankers' association was formed in the month of July, when the State Business league met in the city of Houston at that time. The association is composed of five banks, viz.: Provident Bank and Trust company of Port Worth; Oregon Banking company, Houston; Farmers and Citizens' bank, Palestine; Penny Savings bank, Dallas; Farmers' Improvement Society bank, Waco. These banks have an aggregate authorized capital of $125,000 with a paid-up capital of $50,000 and carrying deposits of $250,000. In Montgomery, West Virginia, is a well appointed hotel, owned by Mrs. S. J. Jackson. It is valued at $20,000, with an annex costing $8,000. The hotel is located on the main street of the city, near the railway station. Nearby the Odd Fellows own a splendid three-story brick building, worth about $12,000. The first floor is rented out for store rooms, on the second is a hall for public entertainments, while on the third floor are the quarters of the different secret fraternities. Messrs. J. S. Noel and Matthew Buster are both engaged in prosperous business, enterprises here and each one is said to be worth between $5,000 and $8,000. Mr. G. W. Robinson holds the rare and exceptional position (for a colored man) of foreman of the coal mines of this section of the state of West Virginia. The "Suggs Block" in Greensboro, N. C., recently erected on East Market street, is a splendid, substantial, pressed-brick structure, furnished with modern improvements. It's an ornament to the thoroughfare in which it is located. The building is seventy feet front, sixty feet deep and three stories high. Its cost is about $10,000. The first floor is occupied by two groceries, an up-to-date pharmacy and a first-class millinery and dressmaking establishment, on the second floor are to be found the offices of a half dozen professional men; while on the third floor are the quarters of fifteen or twenty secret orders.

Cettinje, the capital of the kingdom of Montenegro, has probably the most remarkable prison in the world. No walls surround it and the inmates, who furnish their own cells just as they please, seem to stay there only because they find their quarters comfortable. The diet is liberal, with wine on occasions and cigarettes to taste. There is no work to do; no distinctive garb is worn; and comparatively free intercourse is allowed with the outside world. On certain feast days the prisoners are allowed to entertain their friends. The "Toothbrush Plant." One of the most curious plants in the world is what is called the toothbrush plant of Jamaica. It is a species of creeper, and has nothing striking about its appearance. By cutting pieces of it to a suitable length and fraying the ends, the natives convert it into a toothbrush; and a tooth powder to accompany the use of the brush is also prepared by pulverizing the dried stems. Watch Your Temper. A kind-hearted person'srage soon cools when he looks into the terror-reflecting eyes of a child or a dog, and sees what wonder, what fear, what protest, his storm has awakened. He sees the injustice of his display of feeling. Each one can discover a recipe for anger-polling and each one should quickly discover and speedily apply it. We thank God our people are kind and obedient. They give the best to the white man to every other man who seeks shelter in their humble cabins, or wherever they meet them. Our race is not a bloody race, and if it remains true to its own nature, it will teach the races of the world that only spiritual forces conquer. This is a high mission. Let others be superior to us in the slaughter of human beings, but let no race be superior to ours in the service and valuation of the human family. Guns and swords conquer nothing. Can a shotgun restore lost virtue? Can a sword wipe out stains upon character? We want our race to endure patience, work hard, and triumph by the sword of the spirit, which is the only true conquest. Carry the pickaxe in one hand and the olive branch of peace in the other hand and they will solve all problems in a way that will reflect glory and honor upon us when we stand before the judgment bar of future intelligence of mankind. Industrialism plus industriousism and good will will bring peace, prosperity and happiness, which are the required quantities for the solution of the problem. "Truth forever on the scaffold, - S. W. Christian Recorder. The Small Criminal Element. The few disturbances and outbreaks in the south show the wonderful organic forces in the south. We have nearly ten millions of Negroes and fifteen million whites, and yet we have probably, in the whole south, only one Negro in ten thousand and one white man, who clash. The other 9,999 Negroes rub against one another and against white men every hour in the day, in every walk of life, transact their business and go on their way in perfect friendship. These peaceful relations of the 9,999 give a bolder prominence to the one exception which is held up by the enemies of the south as the general rule. The love and attachment between the races of the south are more than wonderful when we consider the untiring effort of busy-bodies and meddlesome enemies—the small politician, seeking to scatter seeds of discord and break up our peace. We 9,999 must stand firmly in the south and for the south. No enemy shall take that one sinner in 10,000 and disrupt and tear us asunder.. We may not see a solution of problems after our ideal, but we can have such conditions as will bring about toleration and right living; and it may be best after all that we do not have a solution after man's ideal. If every black man would say all the good things he can about every white man and do all the good things he can about every black man, the race problem would disappear amid the sunshine of love, peace and prosperity forever.—S. W. Christian Advocate. 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 dnsty 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. Jacobs and Chas. McDowell. Take Isle of Hope car and get off at Woodlawn, just beyond Sandfly. Current Events.

At Marshall, Mo., a man who is worth $50,000 is serving a jail sentence for violation of the liquor law. He asked for a phone to be put in his cell, but was not permitted to have it. He was also denied the luxury of a rocking chair. He had to be punished before he would take his turn in scrubbing the jail. The saloon has no element of good in it, therefore it is useless to talk of a good saloon under any circumstances. eS a
