The Savannah Tribune VOLUME XXVIII Col. Roosevelt Shot By A Crank ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION MADE ON EX-PRESIDENT Wound Not Thought Dangerous - Assassin Overpowered By Ex-President's Secretary - Colonel Maude Speech in Spite of Wound. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was shot in the breast Monday night by an assassin as he entered an automobile in front of one of the hotels in Milwaukee, Wis. The colonel had just left the hotel and entered the automobile which was to carry him to an au ditorium where he was to speak. In his party were his private secretary and two others. As the party approached the automobile, Col. Roosevelt's companions stood aside and he stepped into the bar, his secretary getting in next. Colonel Roosevelt stood up waving his hat in answer to the cheers of the crowd. The assassin who was standing in the crowd pushed his way to the car, and, raising his gun fired. The colonel's secretary leaped from the car on to the assassin's shoulders and bore him to the ground. There he overpowered him taking his revolver from him. The colonel barely moved as the shot was fired and was calmly looking on when the secretary picking the assassin up in his arms brought him before the colonel. The crowd after recovering from the shock, was about to tear the man to pieces when the colonel intervened and cried: "Stop, stop, stand back; don't hurt him." The party then continued toward the auditorium, no one, not even the colonel himself, thinking that he had been shot. Hardly had they proceeded one block when some one in the party uttered a sharp exclamation and pointed to the colonel's breast, saying, "Look, colonel, there is a hole in your overcoat." In the colonel's overcoat was a bulky manuscript which probably saved his life. The bullet struck the manuscript which retarded its force as it passed through the flesh. In spite of entreaties of physicians Col. Roosevelt insisted upon delivering his speech, saying: "I will make this speech or die, one or the other." Col. Roosevelt delivered his speech talking for more than an hour. After leaving the auditorium the colonel was rushed to a hospital where he was placed on the operating table. It was stated by the attending physicians that the Colonel was not critically injured and was carried to Chicago that night on a special train. The official reports last night from the colonel's bedside state that conditions indicate his speedy recovery. St. Stephen's Episcopal Church. At the 11 o'clock service at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church to morrow,Mr. Lebey will speak, and at the evening service at 8 o'clock the Rev. Mr. Dakin will speak. Engagement Announced. Mrs. Jennie C.

Dr. C. B. Tyson Surprised On Tuesday evening Dr. C. B. Tyson was given a very pleasant surprise at his residence, 811 Gwinnett street, east. It was the doctor's birthday and many of his friends gathered at the home to celebrate the event. The affair was most delightful and the guests filed out on their way home the doctor not only expressed himself as feeling many years younger on account of the evening's surprise but looked the part as well. Music for the occasion was rendered by the Metronome orchestra Refreshments were served by Mrs. R. B. Tyson, Mrs. Wm. Durden, Mrs. Pearl Thomas and Mrs. Ida Hopkins. Those present were: Drs. W. A.

Savannah Man Honored By One Of The Largest Industrial Insurance Companies Of The Entire South-The Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association, Headquarters, Atlanta, Ga. It has been said that "he also serves who only stands and waits" providing one works while he waits. This is beyond all cavil, a fact not only in the case at point, but also in every case where labor holds sway over idleness and shiftiness. We use it in the case at point, however, with greater potency and signification because the things done and the door are within the range of our sight and ken. And besides this, even, the great company which our R. B. Heggs represents, as district manager—its splendid management here, its extraordinary possibilities for a more wonderful development, as well as the magnificent record in the settlement of claims—all of these facts are easily within the scope of our knowledge. Therefore, we rejoice as by leaps and bounds, this great company discovers and covers new territory. In spite of the magical grow and magnificent development of the country, the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association is not blind to the acknowledgement of merit among its operations. In fact Mr.A.F. Herndon, the president of the company, is too big heat reed not to give honor to whom honor is due. It is, therefore, illustrative of the traits of the man that PETER H. our fellow townsman, R. B. Heggs, has been rewarded for meritorious service. Mr. Heggs began his labors with the Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association in the year 1906, as an agent, in which capacity he worked for twelve months. After the expiration of this time, he was made superintendent of agents. In this capacity he worked for eight months, after which time he was made District Manager for the company. In this capacity he is still serving with credit to himself and satisfaction to his company. And there is no better proof of the truth of the foregoing declaration than the selection, of Mr. Heggs, as a director of the company for which, only a few years ago he began working as a raw recruit to a body of expert agents. The election of Mr. Heggs, in our opinion, is but a fitting tribute to the man and to the excellency of his service to the company and to the people whom he and the great company serve. This is a very important and responsible position, director of a great and powerful insurance company. The responsibility that has borne down upon the shoulders of the original directors of the company forced upon President Herndon and Manager Gibson, who are also directors, the necessity and the wisdom of an addition to the number. We predict that with Herndon, Gibson, Faison, Pace and Heggs as directors, all of whom are men of thought and character, the splendid reputation of the company will not only be easily retained but it will be visibly increased by the efforts and sagacity of the new board. We congratulate the company upon the wisdom of its selection. We congratulate our fellow townman, R. B. Heggs, that a reward for merit has come to him and we felicitate ourselves because it is a citizen of our bailiwick who has heard the command "come up higher" in the council of the great Atlanta Mutual Insurance Association for which he has labored so long and ardently.—Ady. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1912 Annual Report of Tuskegee Institute INTERESTING PAMPHLET TELLING OF SCHOOL Total Enrollment Over Fifteen Hundred-Value of Plant Nearly One Million and Half. The annual report of Tuskegee Institute; which is just out, is a very interesting pamphlet and gives an idea of the great work being done by this institution. For the year ending May 30, 1912, there were 1645 students enrolled, representing 34 states, and 19 foreign countries or colonies. The school has been the meeting place of many large conventions during the year and has conducted two educational tours. The value of the plant at Tuskegee is now $1,362,601 24 and the total valuation of the personal property, lands, buildings and securities in possession of the trustees is $3,606,825.47. The report touches upon many other points of interest, alnough which are "The Needs of Negro Public Schools," "The Cost of Farming," and "Some of the Urgent Needs of the Institution." Leverett-Lambert Nuptial Miss Willie Jane Leverett, the beautiful and accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Leverett, of Leverett, Ga., and Mr. B. J. Lambert of this city were joined in holy wendlock, October Sh, 1912, at the home of the bride. A host of friends were in attendance and many useful tokens of esteem and appreciation were received. After the conclusion of the ceremonies, the contracting parties left on a tour of ten days for Jacksonville and south Florida. They will be domiciled in one of the new apartments on East Gwinnett street. A reception was held in their honor at 505 Hall street, east, on Thursday night last. Taylor-Clarke Nuptial. The marriage of Miss Fannie, V. A. Taylor to Mr. Arthur Leroy Clarke was solemnized on Wednesday evening at the home of the bride's parents, 601 W. Bolton street. Exquisite decorations made the home very beautiful. A beautiful arch was arranged with pink and white roses, under which the bridal party was grouped for the ceremony, and presented a very lovely scene. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. W. V. Daugherty. The bridal party consisted of Mrs. Florence Hipp Pousette, of Charleston, S. C., as dame of honor; Miss Leila Robinson, of Cheraw, S. C. a cousin of the bride, as maid of honor; little Miss Veronica Taylor, sister of the bride, as ring bearer and little Miss Eliza Redd as flower girl. Mr. Walden Rosoe Bryant was best man, and Messrs. Robert Smith and Isaiah Robinson acted as ushers. To the tune of Mendelssohn's wedding march, played by Miss Alice Ellis, entered the ring bearer and flower girl attired in very attractive little frocks of white satin trimmed with oriental lace. Next came the dame of honor who was charmingly gowned in a pink charmeuse. It was cut in classie lines and beautifully draped. The bodice was draped at the side with a shirring of goods, with comk and crystal trimmings. The other side was of hand braided pink net wedge with a pleating of pink satin. The skirt was pleated at the bottom and the over skirt corresponding with the draperies of the bodice, caught on the side with a cluster of pink hands made roses. She wore a crystal band around her head and carried an armful of pink roses. Then followed the maid of honor with a charming gown of pink beautifully arranged with crystal and persian trimming, the skirt being of panier front and back with side draperies. She wore a pink bird in her hair and carried a bouquet of pink roses. Then entered the bride on the arm of her father and was met under the arch by the groom and best man. She wore a gown of white crepe marquette. The bodice was almost of crystal bead net with pleatings of white massaline satin. The tran was hung from an empire waist line. At the front the skirt was draped with a cluster of hand-made white satin roses. She wore a tulle veil and a wreath of orange blossoms. The veil was arranged in the charming cap effect. She wore a necklace with a pendant of pearls, a gift of the groom. Her bouquet was a shower of Killarney roses. The mother of the bride wore a soft silk lavender. The mother of the groom wore a black silk, and the sister of the groom wore a beautiful pink satin draped with silk chiffon. The popularity of the young couple was attested by the numerous and handsome presents they received from many sisters, among them being much silver, cut glass and furniture. A mahogany parlor suite, a gift of the bride's parents, and a mahogany china closet, the gift of the groom's parents, were among the most beautiful. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew C. Taylor who have lived here about twelve years having come to this city from Charleston, S. C. She is an attractive and popular young girl, who has made many friends here. Mr. Clarke is one of our Savannah bcyrs, and is a thrifty and steady young man. Mr. and Mrs. Clarke left Monday to spend the winter at Florence, S. C. Convention of Congregational Churches TO MEET HERE NOVEMBER 20TH-24TH Delegates From All Congregational Churches in the State Expected-Great Preparations Being Made The General Convention of Congregational churches of Georgia will be held at the First Congregational church this city, Rev. W. L. Cash, pastor, from November 20th to the 24th. In connection with this Convention will be held the Sunday School and Young People's Christian Endevor Unions and also the Woman's State Missionary Union. Delegates are expected from all the Congregational churches throughout the state and the Convention bids fair to be one of the most interesting ever held by these bodies. Among the Masons Levity, ribaldry, obsenity, profanity and all forms of baseness are absolutely incompatible with Masonry, while sombrenness, melancholy, and depression are equally inconsistent - Masonic Sun. PROFICIENCY A REQUISITE PROFICIENCY A REQUEST In one of the lodges of this Masonic district the newly installed Master created no little sensation among the members present at a recent communication by refusing to pass an Entered Apprentice who was waiting for the second degree, because he had not shown proficiency in the preceding degree. That this eminently proper action should have excited comment, proves that this lodge, like many others, must have become somewhat lax in regard to the requirements of candidates and the Master is to be highly commended who takes a firm stand in this matter at the very outset of his proficiency by an examination in open lodge, and the sooner this rule is put in force in every lodge, the better it will be both for the lodge and for the candidates—Tray Signet. A WORD TO MASTERS A WORD TO MASTERS The Worshipful Masters of lodges cannot too often call the attention of their members, particularly the younger apprentices, to the care necessary in conversing on Masonic matters outside theodge, to them on their hands against the "bogus" and "clandestine," whom they should shun and the visiting or acknowledging of whom would incur the penalty of expulsion Tell your members, one and all, that if any one wants to talk Masonry with you invite him to meet you in the lodge where, after examination by a skilful committee, and be duly vouchered for, they can freely talk of Masonic subjects and as much as they want. Teach them that not all are Masons who profess to be. These lessons can be taught the older as well as the younger brother. In this twentieth century no man can plead it as a mistake who enters a clandestine lodge.—Keystone. WHO IS TO BLAME? If they fail to learn the work and cannot fill any office or work their way into a lodge, who is to blame for it? The Master. If members become lukewarm and want demits, who is to blame for it? The Master. Why is the Master to blame for all that goes wrong among his lodge members and in his jurisdiction? He surely is, for the most of it. How so? As the sun rules the day and the moon beautifies and illumines the night, so should the Worshipful Master govern and control his lodge. The Master is an autocrat in his lodge and his jurisdiction as long as he fills the East. His acts and rulings are subject only to the scrutiny of the Grand Lodge There is no other appeal. He is a model for his lodge. If he is tardy or careless, so are his members. If he looks diligently after a sick brother, his widow and orphans, so will his lodge. If he is prompt in attending all funerals, his members will be prompt. If he sees, to it that no candidate is advanced untif he is perfect in his work, he will have a bright membership and a full lodge room all the time. With all this responsibility how careful should he in the selection of a Master. He can best work, can best harmonize, can set the best-example for others to follow in the lodge and out of the lodge is the member to elect as your Master. Look always to the good of Masonry in selecting your Master. Have no politics or favoritism. If you cannot fill this bill, have some other brother to fill your place until the next election. Being a Master of a lodge is no honor to you unless you can fill the place well. It is like wearing an emblem on your breast. It only emphasizes your ignorance.—Selected. Over Home News. Mrs. Emma E Haynes who has been very ill for several weeks is again able to be among her many friends. Beaufort is on a big boom, the merchants are all smiles, farmers are paying up, cotton moving right and left. New people are locating here buying up truck farms. Beaufort is today the truck growing center of South Carolina, climate ideal, labor plentiful. Come to Beaufort if you want to make good. Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Morris were visited this week by the stork. A bouncing baby boy was left, mother and baby are doing well. Miss Addie Draylon, of Port Royal, is visiting her sister Mrs. Dan Wright, on Duke street. Among the teachers leaving Beaufort this week for different parts of the state to teach school were, Misses Esther Rutledge, Mannie Hamilton, Lurene Grayson, Morie Rider and Helen Caffae. The Republican party of Beaufort called a convention on Oct. 18 at 12 o'clock to nominate candidates for county offices, State senator and members of the House of representatives. The convention will be composed of 63 delegates appointed his follows: Beaufort 10; Brick Church 10; Bellinger Hill 1; Bluffton 3; Halfway House 5; Laurel Bay 2; Ladies Island 3; Gardners Corner 7; Pott Royal 3; Paris Island 1; Cherry Hill 5; Chisolm Landing 3; Myrtle Bush 2; Pocotaligo 2, Hardeeville 1. By order of James Riley, county chairman, W. B. Rivers, secretary. Civic League to Have Mass Meeting. On Sunday, October 27th, the Negro Civic Improvement League will have a mass meeting at Masonic Temple at which time an address will be delivered by Judge John H. Schwartz of the Recorder's Court. The College Glee Club and others will render musical selections. C. E. W. Gunther, proprietor and manager of Gunther's bakery, who leases a storeroom in the business section, occupied by John Kidd, a Negro pressing club operator, Friday received an unsigned letter threatening violence if Kidd was not evicted from the premises. Mr. Gunther refused to take action and the Negro remained until nightfall in the establishment. At dusk a crowd of white men and boys began to gather menacingly around the pressing club. Kidd locked the doors of his shop, and announced to the crowd that he would move immediately. ANGREED WHITES THREATEN CLEVER A mob of white men gathered at the depot at Flowery Branch, a small countryside nine miles from Gainesville, Saturday afternoon as the New York, Atlanta and New Orleans limited train of the Southern road stopped for orders, threatened violence to W. A. Flake, a Negro mail clerk on one of the mail cars. Cursing the Negro, and surging dangerously around the car, the crowd frightened Flake until he cowered in a corner of the coach. D. P. White, chief clerk of the car, stepped to the doorway and ordered the mob away threatening to shoot the first who attempted to mount the car. The train remained at the station only a few moments and pulled out before further demonstration. Rumors spread rapidly and free-around Gainesville Saturday and Sunday that hostilities would result if prompt action were not taken by the police and federal authorities. The Negroes, too, it is rumored, nerved by the augmentation of refuge-seeking blacks in the city, are planning an uprising against repeated attacks upon their race. It is also probable a meeting will be held some time Monday by the cooler-headed residents, to prevail upon the city authorities to strengthen the police force and take precautions to prevent racial disturbance. Anticipating trouble, Sheriff Crow already has enlarged his staff of deputies and prepared to avert probable disturbance.—Atlanta Constitution. Trouble Brewing In Hill Country Trouble Brewing In Hill Country CLASH OF RACES FEARED IN NORTHEAST GEORGIA Many Blacks Are Being Driven Away by Angry Whites—Federal Authorities Asked to Investigate Mailing of Threatening Letters. Guinesville, Ga., October 12. (Special)—Resulting from the recent reign of terror in Forsyth county, racial hostilities have broken out in northeast Georgia that threaten to become as serious as conditions during the period which followed the close of the civil war Race sentiment has swept in a wave over the entire hill country of the state. Generated in Cumming, the county seat of Forsyth county, when two white women died as results of recent criminal assaults, hostile attitude toward the black race has spread throughout the mountains. The situation has assumed proportions so serious that the United States commissioner, Judge J. B. Gaston, has been appealed to by residents of Hall and adjoining counties. He and other government authorities are now investigating conditions and the source of recent uprisings against Negroes of this section. GAINESVILLE INVADED BY NEGROES Gainesville is being invaded as a haven of refuge by hordes of Negroes from Forsyth and neighboring counties, who have been driven from their homes by indignant whites. The Negro sections of the city have been flooded with safety-seeking Negroes, and scores of shanties and dwelling houses shelter as many as six of more families. All roads entering Gainesville from the southeast are flanked by improvised camps, sheltering the fleeing blacks and many families are forced to live temporarily in the wagons in which they fled from their homes. This influx of Negroes has created a wave of resentment throughout the hot-tempered and lawless element of the section. Demonstrations expressive of this attitude have already resulted; and to cope with the situation Chief of Police "Bud" Smith has been forced to strengthen the police force. Anonymous letters have been sent almost every planter in the hill country, demanding the dismissal of all Negro laborers, and their ejection from the premises. Most of these missives threaten arson and dynamizing of the houses in which the Negroes live as penalty for disobeyance. In many instances, mobs of whites appeared at the Negro homes on farms and openly demanded evacuation of the shacks and shanties. These threatening letters and placards posted on mail boxes and in Negro neighborhoods are being forwarded to Judge Gaston tor investigation. Federal action probably will be taken to punish the persons sending the threatening missives through the mails. HOUSE BOMBARDED BY MOR Friday night a mob of whites appeared at the home of Joe Hood, a Negro, living about three miles north of Gainesville. A spokesman demanded. Hood's removal from the vicinity. The Negro slammed the door in the white man's face. A fusillage of shots was fired by the crowd into the house. Hood, his wife and family barricaded themselves behind mattresses and bedding and escaped unhurt, although their home was riddled with bullets. Large holes were rent in the sides of the building, showing the effect of shot gun shells while the entire side was peppered with pistol and winchester bullets. Sheriff Crow is investigating the bombardment of the Negro,shouse. He already has secured clews which point to the leaders of the mob, and their arrests are expected at any time. Not only has the entire section suffered from the abandonment of farms, and loss of labor from the fleeing Negroes, but prominent business men of Gainesville have received the brunt of attacks by hostile whites. Many black chauffeurs of the city have been ordered to give up their jobs, and anonymous letters demanding the dismissal of Negro employees have been sent to scores of business FROCKS FOR EVENING SUITABLE FOR THE YOUNG GIRL ATTENDING COLLEGE. Need Not Be Expensive, but They Must Be of Pretty Material, Suitable to Her Age, and Perfect In Fit. NEW YORK.-The young girl going away to college or boarding school should be prepared for the frequent social evenings and special festivities that will surely arise with a pretty evening gown or two. These gowns need not be expensive—indeed most schools for girls forbid the wearing of elaborate and costly ralment by the students, but the gowns should be indisputably "evening" gowns—affairs of special prettiness and delicacy of color for dressup occasions, and each gown should be accompanied by a pair of matching slippers and stockings and by a band or fillet of soft ribbon, or some similar ornament for the hair. The two evening gowns described today are essentially girlish in type, with simple lines and modest decolletage; but they are made of soft, rich evening fabrics and the colors are girlishly light and dainty. Model No. 1, as planned here, is built of pale pink charmeuse in combination with shadow or flet lace of creamy tone. A dollar and a half charmeuse should be selected, as any cheaper quality of satin will lack the softness and richness of texture desirable in a draped evening costume. Select a very faint pink charmeuse and a creamy, rather than pure white lace, if you wish, to achieve a "Frenchy" effect. Pale pink and cream are always lovely together, and deep pink with garish white should always be avoided, as the combination is perilously apt to be Dutch rather than French. Matter of Lining. The frock is made up over a soft thin lining, which may be of pink batiste, white nailsook—or of thin pink silk, if one cares to pay the extra price. Waist and skirt are joined, the fastening coming at the side of the lace panel at the back, and in the gathers of the skirt just below this point. Make the waist lining rather loose and hook it up the back. The neck is rounded out in girlish fashion, sloping away well at the sides, but being rather high and close to the throat at front and back. The armholes are large and the shoulder lines long, the short, loose sleeve being set into the armhole of the lining. These sleeves are cut in one piece and should not reach over the elbow. The lace band is set at the ends of the satin and not over it, to produce a delicate effect. The lace panels front and back are simply strips of the wide lace insertion, and either shadow or flat lace may be used. They should be laid over similar strips of the pink charmeuse and attached to the waist lining, the lower part of the lace and satin being gathered softly into the waistband and the round neck finished with an inch wide band of the satin. This band should not be cut on the bias, or it will not fit smoothly. When the waist has been stitched up at the shoulders (but not at the side seams) lay it out on paper and mark around the oval which the neck opening will make. This will give you a guide for the binding of satin. The lace panel at the back should be hemmed or faced down one side and hooked down to small flat eyes placed on the lining. Finally, drape the charmeuse over the lining, carrying long strips over the shoulders on each side of the panel from the back of the waistband to the front. The strips should be turned under two or three inches at the outside edge, the fold extending over the top of the sleeve. Similar folds extend over the lace panel at the inner edges of the satin strips and the satin is gathered into the waistband at the back and back and front. Tack and blindstitch the satin to the lining so that it will hold its place without showing any definite stiffness; the whole effect should be soft, loose and graceful, and the waist should suggest a loose, easy fit. The skirt is cut from a two-piece pattern, the top being of the lining material, and the skirt should be two yards wide at the foot. At the left side the satin reaches some inches above the knee, while at the right side it reaches not quite as high as the knee. This emphatic slope of the skirt trimming will add much smartness to the little costume. The lace insertion follows the slope and the insertion is not gathered, but slightly cased along, so that it hangs gracefully over the narrow skirt. The pannier-tunic is also cut in two pieces, but several extra inches should be allowed at the side seams, and also at the fold in front and back when cutting out the tunic. Gather it at the top, cutting the placket at the left side of the back among the gathers to correspond with the opening of the waist at the side of the panel. The tunic should be five inches longer than the space it is to cover, gathered slightly at the lower edge and looped up under. In. Delicate Pale Blue. Model No. 2 is an inexpensive little frock in the delicate pale blue color that is always becoming to young girls. It is made of taffeta, with a bodice of pale blue chiffon under a little bolero like jacket of the taffeta. A soft, chiffon weight of taffeta should be selected; and, the color should be a delicate baby blue Shadow or Val. lace will accord well with the dalnty girlishness of the frock. The skirt is a four-gore model, slightly gathered at the top and measuring two and a half yards at the foot. It is trimmed with a band of corded shirring just below the knee, and the skirt is intended to reach to the ankles. Both frocks described today allow for an ankle length skirt. If the skirt is shorter, a little less material will answer. The corded shirring is made of a bias strip of the silk, four inches wide; turned in at the edges over cable cord. The shirring should not be too full, and the band may be machine stitched, or sewed on by hand over the shirring stitches. The belt is also a shirred, corded band, with rosettes at front and back. The back rosette is a small round affair, finished with a covered silk button. The rosette at the front is made of loops of bias taffeta, shirred along one edge, over cord. The drawing up of the silk over the cord, at the inner edge, gives the loop its rounded shape. This frock fastens down the center back, one of the taffeta straps fastening across a trine, under the rosette, the last thing. The bodice is made of tucked chiffon and if the tucks are set well apart and run by hand the frock will be more dainty. It will be well to mount the tucked chiffon over a little lining of thin net, but this is not absolutely necessary. Make the bodice in three pieces, a loosely fitting front and two backs, with sleeves set into armholes. The sleeve extends just over the elbow and is finished with a band of lace insertion and below this a little hem of the taffeta. Cut of the Overbodlce. The only complication this gown will offer to the home dressmaker is in the cut of the taffetta overbodice or bolero. At the back this is simply in the shape of two broad straps, which are five inches wide, covering the shoulder seam from armhole to rounded out neck; but in front broadening out to form surplice crossover fronts. Experiment first with a piece of old material to get the overbodice right. Each side will require a length of material long enough to reach from the back of the waistband over the 1 shoulder and down again to the front of the waistband. This strip is perfectly straight at one edge—the edge at the outside of the shoulder. At the inner edge the strip is straight (and five inches wide) from the back of the waistband up to the shoulder. From this point the material widens in a slanting cut until it is at least 18 inches wide where it gathers into the front of the waistband to make the surplice. Put strings of the lace insertion across the top of the chiffon waist between the silk shoulder straps. Model No. 1, pink charmeuse and cream lace youthfully combined; total cost, $10.42. This frock will require in the 18-year size $4½ yards of charmeuse, 46 inches wide, at $1.50 a yard; 5 yards of thin lining material at about 15 cents a yard; $3½ yards of wide lace insertion at 50 cents a yard; % of a yard of narrow insertion at 20 cents a yard; three pink silk roses at 25 cents each. Model No. 2, a pale blue evening gown of girlish design; total cost, $6.88. This frock will require in the 18-year size, 5 yards of yard-wide taffeta at $1 a yard; $1½ yards of shadow lace at 25 cents a yard. Pretty Home Dress. The illustration shows a good home dress in Durbar brown rough serge. The skirt is trimmed at foot by a handsome many-colored design embroidered on a black satin ground. On the bodice, which is Magyar, the embroidery is used to outline the square neck and is carried down the left side of front to end of basure; the sleeves are trimmed to match. A band on black satin encircles the waist. Materials required, 3% yards serge 46 inches wide, 3 yards trimming. ```markdown ``` The illustration shows the type of mud road that the recent Peoria (ill.) convention want eliminated. GOOD ROADS BAD ROADS CAUSE BIG WASTE Declares: That $35,000 Be Lost In Illinois Unless Antiquated Methods Are Changed. Bankers, farmers, automobillists, educators, labor and business men from all over Illinois met at Peoria the other day and approved unanimously a general program for "pulling Illinois out of the mud." After three rousing meetings they prepared a resolution to the next state legislature setting out the lines on which they think state legislation Most Modern Methods Urged for Fi- nancing Construction and Main- tenances of Thoroughfares. Realizing the need for the most modern methods of financing the construction and maintenance of public roads in the United States Lee McClung, treasurer of the United States, has accepted an invitation to preside over the finance section of the American Road congress. In an interview just made public Mr. McClung calls attention to the urgent need for the introduction of re-forms in the management of road finances. "My observations," said Treasurer McClung, "lead me to believe that in comparatively few instances is the same care taken of funds for road improvement as is taken by financial institutions for private enterprises. The same care and judgment displayed by bankers in making investments should be shown by state-and local highway departments in the expenditure of public moneys for the improvement and maintenance of roads. Legislation and regulation should so be urged in each state as to provide for the levying of road revenues on carefully prepared estimates, for the introduction of simple yet thorough systems of accounting and cost keeping for a system of regulating bond issues which would insure economy and wise business management. "As one of the possibilities worth considering I might simply refer to the difference between the sinking fund method and the serial bond method as applied to bond issue—and their relative merits." Mr. McClung said that he was very much gratified to note the activities of the various state bankers associations in the good road movement. He believes that the financiers of the country have a great deal to do with shaping the road movement along the right lines and he expresses the hope that every state bankers association will have its representatives at the conference on road finances which will be held at the American Road congress. CAUSE OF WILT IN APPLES Skin is Rough and Porous, and Not Covered With Coat of Wax as Other Varieties Are. Ever since russet apples have been grown, says the Rural New Yorker, they have the fault of wilting in storage. It is constitutional with them. Their skin is rough and porous, and not smooth and covered with a coat of wax, as all other kinds are. If anyone will scrape the surface of an ordinary apple with a knife he can easily see that a white wax is gathered on the blade. In some cases it is very noticeable and may be gathered into a little ball. This wax may be made to shine by rubbing the apple skin, and this is often done by retail fruit dealers and exhibitors at fairs, to enhance their beauty. But it lessens their keeping quality, because of taking off some of nature's protective covering. The russet have almost none of it, and therefore their internal moisture or juices easily pass out. The way to prevent the wilting is by storing the apples in a very damp place. But it must be cool as well, or the apples will ripen and rot. Split Log Drag. The split log drag is by far the most important Implement yet devised for maintenance of earth roads. The drag, besides leveling out the rough places in the roads, packs the material of the surface and in reality converts it into a layer of brick which with each successive use of the tool becomes thicker and therefore resists the traffic to a greater degree. BAD ROADS CAUSE BIG WASTE Declares That $35,000 Be Lost In Illinois Unless Antiquated Methods Are Changed. Bankers, farmers, automobillists, educators, labor and business men from all over Illinois met at Peoria the other day and approved unanimously a general program for "pulling Illinois out of the mud." After three rousing meetings they prepared a resolution to the next state legislature setting out the lines on which they think state legislation should be based. The Illinois highway improvement commission, which called the meeting, declared $55,000,000 will be wasted in Illinois during the next/twenty years unless the present antiquated methods are changed. To prevent this waste the conference urges the creation of a small state railway commission to replace the present army of local commissioners, more active assistance by the state for the trunk lines, and more active insistence by the public on good roads. It is proposed that prisoners in the state penitentiaries be used not only for the preparation of road building materials, as at present, but, if possible, for actual construction work through the state. It is proposed to follow the Colorado method, using the honor system, and sending the gangs out with guards. The legislation recommended by the conference would provide: State and county co-operation in the construction and maintenance of main highways and bridges. A nonpolitical state highway commission of at least three competent members, who shall devote their entire time to their duties. Improvement in such counties as elect to come under the provisions of the law, of main, continuous intercounty highways connecting county seats and other important cities, principally at the expense of the state and county; such roads to be selected and improved by county authorities, subject to the approval of the state highway commission and after improvement to be turned over to the state for perpetual maintenance. Improvement, maintenance, and control of remaining roads (about 50 percent of the whole) under supervision of county and township authorities. Effective measures to guarantee maintenance after roads are once constructed. Use of the state automobile tax, together with such other funds as the legislature may appropriate, in the improvement of highways. Use of state prisoners—under state direction—on an honor system, in actual road work when practicable. Payment of all road taxes in cash. Compulsory dragging of all earth roads. Proper construction and guarding of crossings at railroads and intersection of street and highways. The "platform" of the conference includes resolutions in favor of federal aid for postroads and national highways, and calls attention of Illinois congressmen to this position. It was devised by the committee headed by W. G. Edens of the Central. Trust company, president of the association. Jesse Taylor of Jamestown, O., told the convention the difference between hauling cost in Belgium and America, 13 cents a mile, meant a waste of $137,500,000 in this year's farm crops alone. "Think about it," he said, "and then do something, work for local aid and state and federal aid. Joe Cannon believes in federal aid now, because he's heard from home, and if he can be rescued by the folks at home you ought to do something for the other sinners." The farmers' viewpoint was presented by A. H. Grout, head of the Illinois Farmers' institute; labor's, by Edwin R. Wright, state federation president; the bankers', by B. F. Harris and John D. Phillips, old and new heads of the state association, and H. E. Bradt, their good roads chairman. Pruning Grapes in Fall. Grapes are pruned in the fall; usually a half to two-thirds of the new growth is taken off—depending on the system of training that is used—and in northern states the plants are laid on the ground and covered with earth in much the same way as raspberries SELF-DESTruction IN ROME EX CELFS BUT LITTLE INTEREST. Muddy Tiber Attracts Many Who Leap Off Pincio Wall, But the Poorer Classes Swallow Sublimate—Foreigners Use Pistol. Rome.—Sulcidal manla has swept over Rome during the past summer. Each day new cases were reported, due, the doctors say, to the intense heat, causing temporary disturbance in the nerve centers. It occurs to some extent every year, but this year it established a record. The most approved method where love is the underlying cause is to leap over the boundary wall of the Pinco, Rome's famous pleasure resort since the days of the emperors. In this city park a crowd of idlers is to be seen every evening when the setting sun gilds the dome of St. Peter's and a glorious panorama is stretched in front of the visitor. On the other side, where the park joins the villa Borghese, is a wall with a sheer drop of nearly 200 feet, protected only by a breast-high balustrade. To mount this parapet and jump off is an easy matter, in spite of the vigilant watch kept by the police over suspicious loiterers. The Tiber came next in favor as a means of quitting the flesh. Its muddy current almost daily engulfed a fresh vietnam. The morgue, which stands on the ancient island in the river, led to the identification of a certain number whose bodies were recovered, but the majority were borne out to sea never to be seen again. To this class of sulcifies belong chiefly those who are tired of the battle of life. The third means, although entirely confined to the poorer class of servant girls and women of the people crossed in love, is corrosive sublimate in pastilles. More cases of this class are treated in Rome than in any city of the world, allowing for differences of population. A good percentage of these are taken in time and end prosaically. The platil is limited to foreigners in the hotels. Hanging is out of date except in rural districts. Strychnine is unknown. It is only when the victims are well known, or have made some new departure in the art of self-destruction, that the Roman, at least in the summer months, takes any interest is so ordinary an occurrence of everyday life. TO PROPITIATE THE SPIRITS Yuma Indians Conclude the "Kurook," a Sort of "Grand Lodge" of Sorrow Yuma, Ariz.—The Yuma Kurook, a sort of aboriginal grand lodge of sorrow, has just been concluded on the reservation across the Colorado river from this city. Ordinarily, the Indians seek to forget the dead. Till latterly, when the practice was stopped by the Indian bureau, all the effects of the late lamented were gathered and burned, even his horses being sacrificed to do him fitting honor in the happy hunting grounds. The dead were disposed of by cremation and hardly a relic was left by which to remember them. But, annually, at the Kurook, the tide of memory is permitted to return and for several days the tribe gives itself up to the accumulated grief of a year, gathered together in family groups, propitiating the spirits by unrestrained manifestation of sorrow. Bands of related Yumas will vociferously lament for hours at a time. There will be impromptu speeches, testifying to the virtues of the dead. Dances will be held at intervals, though with all solemnity. Images will be set up, supposedly representing any of the dead, as the imagination of the sorrowing one may suggest. In the latter hours of the mournful feast usually are held mimic representations of wars of the past. This year, a practice never before known. Indians of other tribes were invited to participate, representatives appearing from most of the tribes of southern California and Arizona. 15 Years Waste In Life. New Haven, Conn.—That there is a waste of 15 years in the average human life in this country, owing to insanitary modes of living, and that this waste can be prevented, thus to all practical purposes adding 15 years to human life, is one of the announcements made by Prof. Irving Fisher of Yale at the National Conservation congress in Indianapolis. Professor Fisher is the vice-president of the new organization for public hygiene, which is already hard at work in New York. Saves Train With Her Apron. Bluefield, W. Va.-Miss 'Beulah Chandler, eleighteen years old, prevented the wrecking of Norfolk & Western passenger train No. 1 when she discovered tons of rock on the track at a curve near here and with her apron flagged the train. The passengers took up a large collection for her. Curling Iron May Cost Eye Baltimore.—Miss Madge Jay, a popular society belle, may lose the sight of her right eye. A curling iron slipped from her hand and seared the eyeball. Macon, Ga.—A blind man's club has been organized here for the purpose of directing a campaign against street beggars. SORT OF SECOND AND SECOND ARY OF JACOB FOUND. Aged Houston (Tex.) Negro Sends Money to Brother Who, He Claims, Sold the Former Into Slavery During Youth. Houston, Tex.-Houston has developed a sort of second and secondary Joseph, son of Jacob, who sends necessities back to the crop-rulined land of Canaan. He was a twisted, white-whiskered old negro, who presented his grizzled head at the stamp window of the post office the other day, and said: "Glumme two special delivery letters, and two stamped envelopes. Dis here am Joseph relievin' de wants of his brethren." Then he asked a white man to "back" the envelopes, and while the addressing was in progress he told his tale; and he told it with every appearance of truth. Some time before the big war his father's master at his death freed his slaves and divided part of a Louisiana plantation among them, for he had no friends or relatives among the white people to whom he could leave it. The old man's father and mother prospered and had a family of three boys, of whom he was the youngest. One day the old man, then a boy of six or seven, went to town with his two elder brothers, who were eighteen and fifteen. The father had given them some money with which to buy supplies, but they got into some sort of a gambling game and lost it. They feared to go home without it. So they sat down in the road to think. Then a happy idea struck them. There was a circus in town and they carried their younger brother over and sold him to the ringmaster for a boy to brush away files at meals. They claimed that they had been sent by a white man who owned all three. Perhaps the ringmaster knew that such could not be the case, but he was getting a negro boy for the ridiculously low price of seven dollars, and he was willing to risk running afoul of the law. And besides the glamor of a circus filled the little negro with joy and he bore his brothers out in their lie. The two older ones went home and told the father and mother that "that little fool Dorrie slipped away from them and runned away with the show and they couldn't catch him." And the simple old country negroes, not understanding exactly how boys did "run away with shows," but thoroughly understanding that his fortunate disappearance left them one less mouth to feed, wept a few tears and nearly forgot about the whole matter. Years slipped away and finally Dorrie went home to find his father, mother and oldest brother dead, and the second brother and another who had been born after his leaving, still farming on the old place. Then Dorrie came to Houston and made money. The Mississippi river ran all over the little farm in Louisiana and fairly wiped it off the map as a living producer for this year. And the nemps, now old and feeble, were penniless. The government would feed them, but still they were short. So they got some one to write Dorrle 'way over in Texas for money. And the day he got the letter the old negro was at the post office asking for special delivery stamps to hasten the movement of two money orders for $20 each. "And I'm gwine. to send 'em just as much as I can spare from now on." he said; and just to show how much he knew of the Bible he once more likened himself to Joseph. KILLS GUEST; WAS OWN SON Thought He Was Stranger—Mother and Daughter Hanged Themselves on Learning Truth. Kleff, Russiaa—Rablusin, an old peasant of Kristoff, had a son, Ivan, in the army. After serving his term he worked for some years at the customs and saved $800—unheard of wealth for his class. He went home on the quiet. The old folks were out and his young sister did not recognize him after ten years' absence. He thought to play a joke, said he was a traveler, asked for food and bed and paid two dollars for three eggs she cooked him. Then he went into the garden for a nap. The old folks came home and heard of the rich traveler whose wallet was stuffed with notes. "Let us kill him," suggested the old wife. But Rablusin lacked courage, said he would think of it, and went to the spirit store, to get up pluck. Here he learned that the traveler was his own son and had come home to share his wealth with his family. Old Rablusin rushed home crying out to his wife, "Don't kill him; it's our son." He then fainted. On recovering his wife said: "Don't bother about the traveler, he is dead, I polished him off myself." When the old man told whom she had murdered, mother and daughter hanged themselves and old Rablusin went raving mad. The police found Ivan's body in the garden. His mother had strangled him as he slept. Bachelor a Moral Coward. St. Louis—Hear what Rev. Louis Scott De Burgh saith: "The old bachelor obstructs the social pleasures of our church.

Sarorpay, Ocr. 16 rn, 1912. ————————— Less ‘than three weeks the Nat- ional election tokes place. There has been less enthusiasm in this election than ever before- The Republican candidate for Congress in this district should get every Republican vote and even snore, The leaders in every coun- ty should rally for the ticket. In the death of Gen. W. W. Gordon, the city and State at large have lost one of its foremost and most widely known citizens. Ie was a nnn Joved by all classes with whom he came in contact and he was especially Jini to those occu- pying positions under him. His charity was unbounded, never turning away an appeal to a worthy cause. He wasa very con- servative man, and while he mace no show of his magnanimity, he was especially kind to the Nevro, and his attitude toward him was always that of justice and sympa- thy!’ Especially do we recall at this time bis work among all classes during the yellow fever epidemic of 1876, ‘During that terrible period he went among the} lowly and gave comfort and en- couragement, many times admin- istering personal help. Not only ad be show this charity to the whit s. but made daily visits to the hospitals and retention camps weeupied by Negroes and did everything in his power to see that their sufferings were alleviated. Throughout his lifehe was over a helpful friend to the Negro and it is with-deep regret that we have Jearned of his death. 7 Our people, especially our busi- ness men, can learn a beneficial lesson from the Greeks who reside in this city. They are operating various kinds of business, sticking and getting along successfally, and wit) few exceptions garnering the coins from the liberal hands of our people who seemingly favor them in preference to their own people in similar business. The Greeks are enterprising and race loving. They will give employ- ment tu nu other rice unless they cannet secure one of the.r own. In business they are ever alert to the best interests of their fellow business men. Among thein is an ice dealer; nearly every Greek buys his ice fromhim. They have a wholesale fruit establishment from, which they secure thei fruits. hey have a bakery whicl ‘is supported mamly by that race. In_politics they stand as a unit and the resuit is uit -the pres n sity administration respects ten aud many ef ther daminds hav been complied with, Perinstance s-veral protests have been mad uyainst the establishment of cer tain near beer resorts, and nex churehes.. tod, but these protest had no effect against the solidit; of the Greek vote. These usefu Jessons should be inculcated b, our people, our business men ani our voters, and all should combin ina manner that would be of th greatest benelit to us all, It is indeed distressing beyond measure to note the frequency with which some of the ollicers of our churches repair to the civil courts in order toair their troubles and right their wrongs. Within the past few’ months there have been no less than three instances where suits or injunctions have fbeen filed by a part of the congre- ‘gation of some one of our churches against the other part. This is indeed to be regretted. A church, of all other institutions, should be the temple of peace and brotherly love. Ofcourse differ- ences, of opinion and ideas will come about in any institution ot society where freedom of thought and discussion are allowed among its members. More the less is this true of the church than other in. stitutions. However, we believe that when there is a difference ot opinion among eburch people, o1 those whose profession of Christi- anity give thema mark of dis: tinction from the rest of mankind, the place of settlement where the will of the majority will prevail, should be within the walls of the church and not without them. Flying to the -eourts without any cause or pretext worthy of consideration, is a very unchris- tianlike move. Such action, at atl time, should be indulged in or carried out only asa last resort. ‘The business of a church, just as the business of any modern cor- poration, should be kept within its own doors. If there be any fall- ing out among the brethren which may require # settlement by a court of justice, the same should besettled within the walls of the church itself. The leaders of our churches should be made to under- stand that they cannot hold their places in their churches and at the same time be walking boosters of magistrate, city and county courts. It is their duty to set the example of love and peace before their brethren of the world. To do otherwise, is to livea life diametrically opposite to that which they profess to live. ‘The time to call a halt on such action on the part of our church leadérs isat hand. We believe thu a word to the wise is sullicient. The recent moye on the part o! |the white minisichal union of ou |eity to inaugurate a vigerut’s can. paign that will ud the comruuits of its bawdy houses and their in- mates, should meet the hearty ap- |proval of all our citizens who have the welfare and good same of our city at heart- From tsmeto tame, covering a period of — several months, The Tribune has called the attention of the city avthomties to Uns growing and cancerous evil among us| We have called attention t the fact that in rections of our city where respectable law abiding and property holding citizens reside, a large pum- ber of these houses could be found, the inmates of which in- dulge iv such orgics both day and night as to make a quiet home life and the proper rearing of childeen almostdmpossible. Drunken’ revel- ry, the use of protane janguage, cigarette smoksay, the playing of [questionable masts, vulgar dancing und other stuck in trade of the denizens of the under world, are things to be seen and heard at all hours ot the day and night. Even street brawls during which blows me passed, sometimes between women, aud sometimes between men and women, are happenings of common occurrence in the sec” tions where these despised and objectionable characters live. And not only in the neighborhood of the homes_of some ef our respect- able citizens are these individuals fourd but within the very shadow of some of our churches, whose services tare uftimes interrupted by the conduct of these individuals, do we find them happy and ap- parently permanently — located. Such a condition which should not be allowed to oxist, is indeed a reflection on the fuir name of our city. As citizens and tax payers of our city, we feel that we are entitled to all of the protection from danger and annoyance, of whatever character it may be, to wh ch all other citizens are entitled. | We have watched with i: patience Jubis evil, whichi takes away each day a large proportion of the hap” |piness* of our home life, mature Jand grow within our midst.

S. , a : . r REAL PROGRESS UNDER TAFT Many Progressive Measures Put in Force ‘THE: WHOLE PEOPLE SERVED Express Companies Compelled to Re- duce Rates, Parcels Post Law En- acted and Other Notable Progres- sive Pollcles Made Effective by ‘Taft Without Boasting and Noise. —UDDTTOae Dispassionate judges will accord to the Taft administration the credit of putting in force more measures of a positively progressive character than any other administration since the civil war. Not only have such meas- ures been numerous, but they have been of great and far-reaching impor tance. President Taft has labored in- defatigably to serve the whole people, and by means of bis broad experience and rare judicial mind and having at his command legal talen of the high- est order he has put hiy progressive policles one after another into valid and practical legislation. This has been done without boasting and nose. ‘Whether vindicated or not at the com- ing election, Mr. Taft's work will stand as « chapter of achlevement as brilliant as it is meritorious. We wish at this time to invite atten- tion to two specttic features of gov- ernmental progress. One cousists of the interstate commerce commission's investigation of the express compa: nies, resulting in the recent report or- dering the companies to reduce rate and institute sweeping reforms in va- rious directions. The other is the en- actment of the Bourne parcels post Dill, one of the most useful measures ever put fn force in this country under any administration. These two re- forins, taken in connection, will exert @ powerful influence for a reduction of the cost of living. Mr. Taft has been in complete sym- pathy with the interstate commerce commission's inquiry-into the express business, a process cousistent in all re- gpects with the administration's gen- eral policy of compelling big corpora- tions to square themselves with the law and the public interest. Some of the more powerful corporations do not like that policy, but the public ought to indorse it. The enactment of a par- cels post law brings to fruition a plan that found indorsement in the plat- form upon which the president was @lected. Through the action of the senate the Bourne bill, looking to a parcels service at the lowest practica- ble rates within a given territory, was substituted for the house bill with Its flat rate provisions. The measure as passed probably 1s not perfect, nor should the rates be regarded as per- manent. The plan fs experimental in certain respects. But we believe the principle of the act is correct. One of the most important aspects of this measure is its bearing on the food sit; uation. It will give consumers and pro- ducers a new medium of direct con- tdet. The Interstate commerce com- mission’s rulings respecting the ex- press companies also make special ac- count of this problem. The express companies-are required to order their busfness in such a manner as to give quicker service and lower rates on food products. It is recognized by,all economic in- vestigators that one of the greatest problems related to the cost of living ig that which has to do with the sys- tem of distribution. Express reforms and the parcels post will be of great value in promoting prompter and cheaper distribution of food products especially, and at the same time the gcope of these measures 1s so compre- hensive as to apply to all classes of merchandise. Production, too, should be greatly stimulated by the influence thus Inyoked. * We do not say that President Taft deserves the sole credit for these de- partures, but we cite them as features of an administration that some persons would have us believe is nonprogres- sive, when In reality they form a logt- cal part of a great progressive epoch, which opened with the inauguration of Mr. Taft, and which, in the people's patriotism and good sense, will be con- tinued during four more years of the same courageous and able leadership. Extract from statement of Mr. Roosevelt, dated-Nov. 8, 1904: “On the 4th day of March | next I shall have served three and one-half years, and this’ three and one-half years con- | stitutes my first term. The | wise custom which Ilmits the President to two terms regards - the substance and not the form, | Under no circumstances will I be a candidate for or accept | another nominalien.” «What Washington would not | fake, and Grant could not get, | ; no MBB shall have.” _ HE TURNS TO-TRUSTS. ' Woodrow Wilton Evades. Discussion of the Tariff Question. It is the trust Issue, we are now told by Woodrow Wilson, that 1s para- mount in the campaign. Last week It was the tariff. What it wiMl be next week has not yet been indicated. In his speech of acceptance Gover- nor Wilson emphasized the fact thata platform was not a program. Those were words of wisdom. A program {s something to be followed with some degree of fidelity. A platform, in the lexicon of the Democratic candidate, fs a flexible thing, not to be taken too serlously, but to be bent and altered to meet the demands of the moment. A nice, adaptable platform is good evough for him. In all fairness and in all decency, however, Dr. Wilson should not be permitted to evade a discussion of the {issue he brought forward as the im- portant one early in bis campaign. His campaign manager refused a chal- lenge for & joint debate between Re- publican and Democratic speakers on the tariff, and the candidate might disclaim personal responsibility for that, but certainly Dr. Wilson cannot avoid responsibility for his owh words and his own arguments. The fact that he ‘found his audiences to- tally out of sympathy with his free trade view’s should not still his tongue it ha has the courage of his convie- tions and honestly believes the doc- trine which he preached, If he be a true leader of the anti-protectionists, he will justify his belfefs and opin- ions. sf So far from doing this, however, he has elected to evade, precisely as his managers evade, adequate discussion of the aubject whiclt means 50 much to every individual th the land, First assilling protection and making stare- ments that demonstrated his lack of knowledge of the facts, he shifted from that position to one where he was trying to calm the fears of the indus- trial and commercial elements in the population aroused by his initial ut- terances. Out of all his more or, less vague talk on the subject only’ one thing emerges clearly and distinctly —that is, that he and his party pre- pose « purely political revision of the tariff, with all the disaster, distress and! disturbance that such a revision entails. Scientific revision on accur- ate fuformation Is rejected by iim and his party. Political revision 1s, just what the people do not want, wut both candidate and party are comnt?- ted to it; hence, their desire to get away from the issue. By all means let the trusts be dis- cussed, too, but not in terms of gen- cralities, such as Governor Wilsoa fn- dulged in before the Democratic state convention at Trenton last Tuesday. And while discussing {t Governor WiF son might explain why it was that the Democratic house curtailed the trust investigating .work of the department of justice by granting only two-thirds of thy sum needed to carry on the la- bors tapped out. MR. WILSON'S APOLOGY. Afriid to Publish What He Said About Union Labor and Immigrants. The so called Wilson defense bu- reau has fssued a long statement to the 2ffect that Woodrow Wilson's rub- lished opinions In his books on the al- legei interlority ,of European imrit- grants and American workingnen generally to the Chinese and favort..g Chines2 immigration, ete, have becn “misinterpreted.” g ‘Tnera'is one ready and complete re- ply to nilsinterpretation, and that {5 to,rerubi:sh what Wilson said te let him speak for himself. This the Wil fon defense bureau of the Democratic national committee carefully refrains trom ‘doing, and neither Wilson nor his apologists, therefore, can blame Amer- {ean workingmen in general and Euro- pean {immigrants in particular for con- cluding that Wilson meant just what his language meant When he ex- pressed his bad opinion of trades unions and his preference for Chinese Over Europeans, moe More Work Than Workers. To the Editor of the World: Ihave read your paper for about fif- teen years and during that time I have always found it very much on the level, but just now I don’t agree with you on Wilson, I am a Republican, and have been for more than fifteen years, so 1 am for Taft always. I will answer why by taking up your adver- tsing sheet of Sunday, Sept. 29. That's the answer. Can you or Mr. Wilson tell me, if he is elected, wheth- er you will have more pages of help wanted advertisements than you had on that day? Eight pages of help wanted, male and female, and a little two and one-half pages of situations wanted, male and female! Don’t you think that means something? Bust- ness must be good in this little city. Will it be peter {f Wilson fs elected? I know it won't be nearly as goo and you don't want to know it. H.C. RODDER. New York, Oct. 1. —Ndw York World (Dem.) Oct. 2. “Whenever we got desperately bard up I went back to Perkins,” safd Sena- tor Dixon in describing the raising of funds for the third term movement. Very much of the movement goes back to Perkins, and back .of him to his steel and harvester trusts. “The virtue of the sober second thought,” mentioned by President Taft in his speech at Parramatta as being the possession of the American people fs getting more and‘thore in evidence.

The address of President Taft to the Beverly Republican Club, Beverly, Mass. Sept. 3, was as follows: Gentlemen of the Beverly Republi- can club and, I ain glad to say, my fel- low citizens ‘of Beverly, 1 thank you for this cordial greeting. This club suggests one or two thoughts of a po- Mtical character that I did not touch upon in the remarks I addressed to you on Saturday. It suggests the ne- cessity for renewed organization of the Republican party under-present condi- tions. The Republican party has been successful for many years. I think the last riational defeat we' suffered was in 1892, and that is twenty years ago. We have reached a point where it was natural that there should be some gentlemen who were convinced that their position in the party was not all that they thought they wefe entitled to aud therefore they were In favor of sloughing off into a third party. Now, the danger in the continuance in power fora long time to the party itself fs the jealousies, the factions, the quarrels within the party that long Iife and success are apt to generate, and, while, of course, a third party fs a misfortune to the Republican party in the loss of some votes, we must be philosophical and look at this result on its good side as well as on its bad side. I conceive in respect of the life of the Republican party that secession of a third party is going to give us new vitality In the very feeling of fight that the fajustice of the claims of the third party will arouse in us as real Republicans. We know that we are a better set of men than we are now called by those who were very glad at one time to be know as leading Re- publicans. We know that we stand in the nation as the guardian of those institutions of civil liberty under our constitution, the presertation of which has made this nation permanent and great, and that nothing could come to this’ country of greater~political in- Jury than such a split in the Republi- can party as would destroy ft. ‘The Importance of this campaign in its Immediate result Is great. I could hardly state with more emphasis than I really belleve the crisia that we now face with reference to the cohtinuance of prosperity in this country by reason of the vote that we are to have in No- vember, but there is something be- yond November with respect to the Republican party. It is essential that we should continue and revitalize it as a permanent party and a permanent force in this nation for the continu- ance of ‘the progress that has made it great. No student of history can deny that the grandeur of this nation and the height that {t has reached among nations during the last sixty years has’ been due to the gufdance and the force and the enGrgy and enterprise of the Republican party. We propose to have that continue. We propose that the force represented by the Republican party shall continue useful in the his- tory of this nation, With that in mind, I would urge upon you the necessity for closing up the ranks, finding out who is.a Republican, and who is not, and when you find a man who Is not, do not count him for the party. One who fs not loyal never helps. There is no use, gentlemen, tempor- izing about this matter. A man is a Republican or he {s not. Is he going to support the national ticket, and is he golng to support the State ticket? If he fs he is a Republican, and {f he is not he fs not a Republican. Now, such a policy may cost us some votes, but fo the not distant futuye these gentle- men who have deserted us in the hope of enjoying office, on the one hand, or a millennium, on the other, will find themselves without office, millennfum or party. They will feel a bit lonely, and thea when they come back to the Republican party, as they will come back, let them come back as Republi- cans, but ‘bringing forth works meet for: senentasee, } ete | a Ca kg ; ee 4 | Bae ee es EN 3 pee =: ; : BS How Prosperity Changed to Panic When Democrats Elected a President. In January 1892, this country was prosperous, and all conditfons Indi- cated continuance of prosperity. In November of that year a Demo- cratic pres{dent was elected. In 1893 the Democratic congress, convened in extraordinary session, be- gan its antt-protection activitles. After a time ft enacted the Wilson low,tar- itt law, “ In the early summer of that year came thé panie. In the period from May 1 to July 23, 301 banks, with a total capital cf $38,000,000, suspended. ‘The total number of banks suspended in that year was 585. In 1892 the total amount of Mabill- ties on account of business failure was $114,000,000. In 1893 the total was '$346,000,000. Im the year 1893 railroad properties whose aggregate value was $1,200,000,- 900 were in the hands of recelvers. Between May 4 and Oct. 3 $378,000,000 was withdrawn from national banks. In this state aloné withdrawals of deposits from savings banks were $34, 000,000 in excess Of deposits made. In the perlod from Jan. 1, 1892, to Jan. 1 1896. there was a shrinkage of $1,400,000,000. in the total value of farm products and live stock in the United States. ~ In that perlod prices were lower, but hundreds of thousands were wage- less and othgr multitudes worked at low wages and on short time. They had little money or none ssith which to buy even the most ordinary neces- saries of ‘life in adequate quantity. Now, after twenty years, the Demo- cratic party fs again asking the elec- torate of the United States to put it in control of national affairs in order that the performances of its last pe- riod of control and their disastrous consequences may be repeated. ‘The Republican party, under whose administration during sixteen years the country has become newly pros- perous and more prosperous than ever it was before, pledges {itself to mainte- nance of the policies which restored and promoted prosperity. There is a paramount issue. Wht intelligent <American can hesitate to make his chotce?—Albany Journal. Business Confidences. In hfs speech of acceptance Wood- row Wilson asserted that the tariff has made the business men of the country “timid, fretful, full of alarms; has robbéd them of self confidence and manly force until they hase cried out that they could do nothing without the assistance of the government at Wash- ington.” : Present day conditions challenge the accuracy of this statement. The ex- cellent doctor would do well to point out some of the “timid, fretful” bust- ness men who are now “full of alarms” and who cre lacking in “self confidence and manly force.” Where can he find them? =’ The country is at’ the high tide of Prosperity. Business confidence is in evidence everywhere. The course of the Republican administration is di- rectly responsible for this condition. Danger lies only In a change of admin- istration, with the consequent change of policy that {s promised. Then, tru- ly, the business men of the country would be “full of alarms,” and they would have justification. 7 STANISLAUS GRODZIK HAS ENOUGH SAVED TO LAST FOUR YEARS IF WiL- SON'S ELECTED, 80 1S WILLING TO LOAF. epee: SS" Sareea Webster, Mass., Sept, 29.— Stanistaus Grodzik, who lives in the East village, although he isn’t a voter, Is red hot for Wilson and has one of the strongest arguments ever in favor of the Princeton profes- sor for president. Grodzik has lived In Web- ster fifteen years and Is a can- didate for naturalization next year. He won't be able to vote for Wilson this’ year, but has advised all his friends to vote for Wilson. Grodzik’s argument is that he works*too hard under the prosperity administration of Taft and Republicans and wants a rest. With Wilson and Democracy at the helm Grodzik, who has experienced the administration of one Democratic president, knows that there will be plenty of chance to loaf. For ten months the East village mill of the S. Slater & Sons, Inc. has been working night and day to fill orders, ani as a result of the pros- perity at the mill Grodzik has been worked over-time. If Taft is reelected Grodzik fears that the overtime schedule may be extended ‘to another term of ten or twenty months and wants to call a halt. ¢ “Too much work when Re- publican he's President,” sald Grodzik today. “With Demo> crat lots tlme to loaf and spend all the money we make when Republican is boss. By Gosh! I'm sick for work so hard and no chance to spend my money. If Democrat he's elected we have lots of time then. 1 guess 1 got enough save to last four years If we work half time.” —Warcester (Mass) Tele- gram. FOR CHINESE IMMIGRATION What Woodrow Wilson Wrote in His Well-known “History” PREFERRED IT TO EUROPEAN “More to Be Desired as Workmen, If Not as Citizens, Than Most of the Coarse Crew That Came Crowding Every Year at Eastern Ports” SCM, se Nee Woodeow (Wilson, Democratic can! didate for president of the United States, has declared himself in the most public aud permanent manner in favor of Chinese immigration as preferable to,forelgners from southern and eastern Europe, whom he calls “the coarse crew crowding in at the eastern ports"—that is, New York, Boston, ete. As a very large propor- tion of the workers in New England mills Lelong to the class denounced by Wilson as less desirable than the Chi- nese, they ought to be interested in the views which he has evpressed and which,we quote as follows from page and velume of Wilson's “History of the American People.” From page 21%, volume 5, “Now there came multitude ‘of men of the lowest class frdm the south of Italy and meh of meaner sort out of Hun- gary and Poland, aa if the countries ‘of the south of Emope were dis- purdening themselves of the xaore scr- did and Lapless elements of their pop- ulation.” Brom page 212, volume 5: “The Chinese were more to be desired as workmen, if not as citizens, than most of the: coarse crew“that came crowd- ing iu every year at the exstern ports. It was their shill, their intellizence, their knack of succeeding and driving duller rivals out rather than their alien habits that made them feared and hated and led to their exclusion ai the prayer ot the men they would kely displace should they multiply The unlikely fellow who came in at the eastern ports (that is, the immi- stants from Europe) were tolerated Uecause they usurped no place but the very lowest In the seale of Iebor.” Foivign born workingiaen and work- ing women of New England, what do yeu think of this starersent hy Wood row Wifson, De nvcratic candidate for president of the United States? He says that you are “a coarse crew,” that the Chinese are better workmen ant might make etter citizens thaa jue are, oud that you are tolerated be cause you usurp “no place but the very lowest in the scale of labor.” We have siven"you pase number and vole number where these state- ments are to be found in Woodrow Wilson’a“History of the American Peo- ple.” You can go to any library and read them for yourseif. Woodrew Wilson is the first candi- date for president of the United States who has declared himself in fpvor of Chinese Immigration Of the estimated population of 350,000,000 in Chita many millions would like to come to America. If admitted they ‘ould soon drive American labor out of the mills and workshops and also out of retail and’ much of the whote- sale business. At present Wilson fs keeping very mum on the subject} but there can be no doubt whatever that he ‘vould, if elected president, aztomp: to carry out his published views, and open the door to the Cninese In this he woutd have the backing of the southern Democrats, who mould be glad to have the Chinese came over and work for them in place, of the nexroes. In Uns connection we suggest par- ticular attention to Woodrow Wilson's expression ahout “the unlixely fellows” from southern and eastern Europe be- ing “tolerated, because they usurped no place but the very lowest in the seate of labor.” The Republican party, whose first president was Lincoln the rail splitter, whose second president was Johnson. the tailor, Whose third president was Grant the tanner, whose fifth presl- dent was Garfleld the towpath mule driver, whose elgbth president wus McKinley, in his youth an iron found- sr. regards and treats all honest labor 8 honorable and as not merely to be “tolerated,” but honored. Wilson's slur upon the labor of the foreign born finds no echo in the ut- terances of President Taft, who, re- turning from a visit to the wast, In the course of which he addressed large Fatherings of dur adopted countrvn:en, declared that nothing had gratified him so much as the inteligent inter- est shown by his hearers in American institutions and their earnest desire to unde:stand the spirit and meaning of the constitution of the United Stato. “Nicaragua Pacified; Marines to Le Withdrawn,” says a newspaper bad- line, narking the conclusion of xnoth- er delicate and menacing International ‘situation, ably Rendled by the admin- istrauion. > Woodrow’ Wilson remarks that “the American people aren't going to be fed any longer with words,” but he has of- fered no variation of dfet himselt. Prosperity {s polities proof when a Republican administration fs in power, but it wouldn't be in the face of Dem- ocratic or third party tinkering. It fa apparent that the third term party did not get value.or the $2 a Yate It paid in the New York primaries.

The third term eazdidate is the pein- cipal spellbinder for Woodrow Wilson He knows in his heart and eal thit the only success possible for him should he succeed would be ta defeat Taft und elect Wilson. Evéry vote fur Roosevelt 1s indirectly a vole for the Democratic nominee, whose support- ers at Baltimore made an open appeal for his :iomination on the gesund that he was a native of Virginia, an ey-Con- federste state, and not, like his rival, Champ Clark, a native of Lincoln's state cf, Kentucky.

Plano and Milwaukee had agreed upon the terms under which they would go Into the alleged com- bination.” ‘The contention of the government is that the purpose of the organization was to take over the properties of the competitors by Issuing stock in pay- ment for the Interest acquired. The records werg produced to show that the owners of the old companies at once became officers and directors in control of the corporation. The minutes showed that shortly after Its organization J. P. Morgan & Co. were elected the fiscal agents and George W. Perkins was made chalr- man of the finance committee. Later Mr. Perkins was chosen a member of the executive committee. Resolutions adopted by the board of directors showed the sale of the entire product of the New Jersey corpora- tion to the International Harvester Company of America. The govern- ment introduced in evidence the ‘min. utes of a meeting of the finance com- mittee held January 20, 1903, at which a resolution was adopted authorizing the purchase of the D. M. Osborne & Co. and the Columbian Cordage Com- pany, competing concerns, The meet- Ing was held at the offices of J. P. Morgan & Co. in New York and was attended by George W. Perkins, G. F. Baker and Norman E, Ream. DAUGHTER GOT EVIDENCE, Has Alleged Slayers Of Her Father . lentieted. Jackson, Ky.—Atter Ed.

Analysis Made By Secretary Wilson Shows How the Government Has Stimulated Scien- tifle Farming. Washington.—Never before hav the great cereal crops of the Unites States been so bountiful as those o this year. Records of production fo: almost every cereal have been sur Passed, In some Instances by million: of bushels. The October crop report of the De partment of Agriculture, just issued shows spring wheat, onte, barley, ry‘ and hay all have exceeded the bes record productions, while the crops of corn and potatoes from present indi cations’ also will be the greatest ever when harvested, Speaking of this great showing made by the country’s farmers, James Wilson, secretary of agricul. ture, said: “The crops are the heaviest on rec: ord. The season has been favorable, but some credit 1s due to the wide ef forts made in late yeara by the Fed- eral government and the States to help farmers throughout the country to’ get better returns from the average ‘acre. | “The world has been searched for batter plants by the Department of Agriculture and {ts scientists have deen creating new plants by hybridiza- tion for the several localities. “Twenty-elght million pieces of literature have been sent out by the Department in addition to the advices from the State stations along these lines. So the farmers have been helped in producing their record- breaking crops.” : ‘The features of the report are the enormous harvests of corn, oats and spring wheat. More than‘’3,000,000,- 000 bushels of corn, almost 1,500,000,- 000 bushels ‘of oats and 330,000,000 bushels of spring wheat, hate been grown. The States in thé Northwest are harvesting the greatest crops ever grown there. In North Dakota 146,592,000 bushels of spring wheat, the greatest spring wheat harvest ever grown by any State, was produced. The yield per acre there was Increased from eight bushels last year to 18 bushels this year. Towa, with 219,780,000 bushels; IIll- nols, with 182,726,000 bushels; Minne- sota, with 192,932,000 bushels, and North Dakota, with 96,138,000 bushels, were the principal oat producers. In each of these States the yield per acre this year was almost double last year’s yleld. “It looks as if we won't have to im- port any potatoes this year,” sald Sec- retary Wilson in commenting on the Fecord potato crop. Indications are that the farmers will have 108,000,- 000 bushels more potatoes this year than last, when, by reason of the short crop, large quantitles were imported from Europe. a a eg co RAILROAD INDICTED.

KILLED [f HEAD-ON CRASH Wreck On the Western Maryland Railroad Declared To Have Been Due To the Failure Of Crew To Obey Orders. Hagerstown, Md.—At Kobeen, Pa., about five miles west of Shippens- burg, Pa., on the sixth district, Phila- delphia and Reading, a westbound freight train operating over the West er Maryland tracks, under trackage ‘arrangement, collided head-on with a Western Maryland train handling deadhead passenger coaches en route to Shippensburg, resulting in the fol- lowing fatalities and injurles to em- ployes: J. W. Frederick, firetian, Philadel- phia and Reading Rallway; kifled. C. R. Gordon, firenan, Western Maryland Raliway;’killed. D. S. McClain, conductor, Western Maryland Railway; taken to hospital at Chambersburg on special train, where he died, <, Frank Crouse, conductor, Philadel- phia and Reading Rallway, died tn hospital at Chambersburg. M. L. Athey, brakeman, Western Maryland Railway; serlously injured. M. U. Bream, engineer, Philadel- phia and Reading Railway; Injured, but not serfously. J. C. Shank, brakeman, Philadel- phia and Reading Rallway; injured, but not serfously. ‘The above injured employes were taken to a hospital at Chambersburg immediately after the accident, by a rellef train. J. P. Copeland, engineer, Western Maryland Rallway, recelved slight in- juries and after emergency medical attention had been rendered, was taken to his home at Hagerstown. It is claimed the wreck was direct- ly due to the failure of tho crew of the Philadelphia and Reading train, westbound, to obey orders. Dispatcher D. P. Flanagan, of Hagerstown, had Issued orders for the two trains to pass at Lurgan, but it {s claimed the freight crew attempted to reach the next siding. At the point where the two trains met, there fs a decided dip. Conductor McClain, who died at the hospital, was 40 years old, and leaves a wife and elght children, the young- est less than a year old. One of his legs was cut off, and he was Injured about the body. His death resulted shortly after he reached the hospital. Mr. Copeland stated, that following the wreck he found himself covered with debris. He finally managed to dig himself out and assisted in the rescue of the more seriously injured. The wrecking crew from Hagers- town spent practically the entire day clearing away the debris. In addition to the two Western Maryland coaches petng destroyed, many of the freight. cars were damaged by the Impact. LEAPS FROM BIPLANE; DYING, Aviators Skull Fractured and His Lungs Punctured.

Washington—The reported loss of many thousands of dollars by the sinking of the Titanic calls attention to the fact that the government of the United States frequently benefits by the misfortunes of the people. It never can be known what amount of United States money went down with the Titanic, but whatever the sum, the treasury department has just so much additional to its credit,as it can never be presented for redemption. ‘A week rarely or never passes that the treasury department does not re- celve for redemption a number of packages containing money that has deen partly destroyed by fire, and in all cases where the bills can be sat- isfactorily identified new money Is issued therefore; but frequently only @ portion of the bill remains, and in that event, if three-fifths of the note can be Identified the full face value Is returned to the owner, but if less than three-fifths can be Identified only one-half of the value is returned. ‘These losses by fire aggregate each year a very large sum; but whgt has Become ot the ‘mililons of dolidts of which there is no trace is an unsolved problem. Treasury officials speak of the great fires that In years past have swept Chicago, Boston, * San Francisco, Baltimore, and other citles, and estimate that many millions must have been lost in these great con- flagrations. Early In the Civil war the United States Issued over 400,000,000 of legal tender notes, which were used in payment of all government obliga- tions, Including the pay of the armies in the field. At this time there are still outstanding over $3,000,000 of these notes in the denominatfons of one and two dollars alone, which are never heard from except now and then a stray bill or two is presented for redemption. It fs a fair assump- tion that a large percentage of the whole $3,000,000 has been accidental- ly destroyed, and this is undoubtedly proportionately true of all of the ald issues . Soon after the war began the gov- ernment issued from time to time an aggregate of nearly $369,000,000 in fractional paper money, and some thing over $15,000,000 {s still carried in the treasury accounts as outstand- ing, ‘As fast as these old wartime “shin- plasters” come in the treasury de- stroys all of them that gare much mutilated and worn, but they are never pald out again other than in small amounts and in exceptional cases. The treasury now has on hand only abous $246 of these small notes. In 1879 the department, rep- recognizing the fact that compara- tively few of these old fractional notes would ever be presented to the treasury, directed the segregation of a fund of something over $8,000,000 held in the treasury for the redemp- tion of these notes, the amount to be applied to the payment of war pensions. Large sums of this Issue are no doubt held by collectors as souvenirs. Of the Civil war issue of compound interest notes which amounted to nearly $267,000,000 there still re- mains outstanding approximately $160,000, ‘and of this issue only $70 came to the treasury last year. Of rhe Issue of seven-thirty notes run- ning from 1861 to 1865, which totaled about $970,000,000, there 1s still out- standing $130,000, and only $100 of hese notes were redeemed last year. Of the war time demand note Issue ot $60,000,000, a total of $53,000 is still inaccounted for and none of this {s- sue has recently been presented for redemption. “During the issie of the Spanish war oan in June,and July, 1898, about 235,000 government checks were sent 9 subscribers for small amounts of |: ese bonds, which represented the| aterest duestrom the date of Its re- elpt until Auguat 1, the date of the onda, and over 10,000 of these checks |; ave never been presented for pay-|: nent. It is assumed that as nearly|' MI of the checks were ‘for. small]; mounts, some of them for only a few | ‘ ents, they also have been kept as ouvenirs, > Many people who recelved govern- ment checks in payment of interest mm Ive bonds Beem to be very care-|! ess or not in need of funds, as aj < arge number of these checks never | ave been presented for payment.|f Jne party alone fs known to have in ‘im nosseasion an arerecate of many | 4 souvenirs. > Many people who recelved govern: ment checks in payment of interest on live bonds Beem to be very care less or not in need of funds, as a large number of these checks’ never have been presented for payment. One party alone 1s known to have in his possession an aggregate of many thousands of dollars réprosentad by these checks, and although frequently importuned to present them for pay- ment, he bas so far neglected to do 20. An investigation recently made by the secretary of the treasury dis- closes the fact that inany- national banks are holders of these checks, and the reasury now has the names of over 1/9 national banks which have thus far neglected to present them for payment. This fallure on the part of ny such check holder to present them has catised the — secretaiy. to issue an order to the,effect. that when such Interest cheggs remain unpaid for more than thrge full fiscal years tho holder wilt be frequired to prove his right to them In addi- tion, it is probable that new checks | will have to be farued covering the| amounts of the old. NEW PAPER MONEY- Robert C. Bailey, assistant secre~ tary of the treasury, has completed a Ust of former presidents and other Prominent men ‘whose names are to be used on @ new serles of paper money that {s about to be tssued. _ ‘The face of George Washington wilh appear on the $1 bills, Thomas Jeffor~ son on the $2 bills, Abraham Lincoln. on the $5 bills, Grover Cleveland on{ tho $10, Alexander Hamilton, $20; An- drew Jackson, $50; Benjamin i Un, $100; John Marshall, $500; From, Clay, $1,000; and U. S. Grant, $10,000. It is Mr. Bafley’s plan to-have all three branches of the goverument, @x- ecutive, legislative and judicial, rep- resented on thé paper money. All the men named were presidents except Hamilton, © Franklin, Marshall and Clay. Marshall for yeara was chief justice of the Supreme court and will be the jurist represented on the bills. ‘The face of Henry Clay will be there for the legislators. All of the bills of the same denom- ination, under the new plan, will bear the faces of the same men, That is, all treasury notes, silver certificates and natfonal bank notes of the same amount will be alike as far us pletures go. This, It, 1s belleved, will be w check on couitterfeiting. Ofictals at the treasury department” admit that the most dangerous form of counterfeiting is bill raising. By having bills of the same denomination! bear the same pletures it would be impossible for any one to add anoth- er clpher to a $10 bill and pass it as a $100 bill. | TEETH AND MATRIMONY. Dr. Jacob S. Wells of Fargo, N. D.) who entertained "the National Dent: ists’ convention with original {dear about teeth and character, says he is preparing a work on the subject of teeth and character. “Chaucer, the old English poet, sald; ‘She was a great tooth lcourous wom- an,’" declared Dr. Wells. } “He meant, of course, that her teeth projected in front, Chaucer recognized, away back yonder, tha fact that women with large mouths and projecting teeth fnvarily mar ry. The fact that thie woman mar- ried five times eubstantiates his state- ment. 1 “You will find that men with long! white, narrow teeth Ike to marry! Such men make good husbands and Provide well. “Men and women of the type of teeth, described drift together natural: ly, Ike positive and negative steels; They get along excellently, “Men with broad, white teeth ara hot fitted for matrimony. Such meni make cur captains of Industry, but! they have a contempt for women and! are not good lovers.” 5 a &/ SPOTTED FEVER GERM. ai Dr. John F, Anderson, director of the hygienic laboratory, ts preparing to begin experimenting upon the Rock mountain spotted fever ‘ticks, which were turned over to him after they! had caused the death of Dr, TeB. Mo- Clintick. Dr. McClintick contracteg the diseaso while experimenting upod the ticks at Victor, Mont, ~ “My first task,” said Dr. Anderson cheerfully, “will be to ifolate the spot, ted fever germ. The germ has aereg been Isolated as yet. It 1s so smal that {t has been impossible thus mas to detect ft under the microscope. | “It I succeed in isolating the germ! I shall continue my experiments In tha hope of discovering an antitoxin fox, the disease.” Dr. Anderson has fn his office 50,000 of the deadly ticks, sealed in glasa tubes—enough to wipe out ‘the popu- lation of Washington should they be liberated, it is sald. “CONSCIENCE” FUND GROWS. A conacience-stricken club member in Chicago the other day contributed to the conscience fund of the treas- ury the sum of $100 as duty, on a watch which be brought into this coun. try without declaring. The letter in- closing a $100 bill ‘is written on tha Jetterhead of 2 prominent Chicago ‘club. This fs the letter, addressed to Secretary MacVeagh! = “when in Europe I bought a waich: which T wore when landing.

Everywhere you seo the American woman, whether she 1s going shopping, visiting or else where, she 1s moving fast, as it she did not have a second to lose.” ‘The princess would have the women plumper. STOP POTATO IMPORTATION. | Real Irish potatoes from Irejan¢ ‘will not be eaten in this country here- after. The department of agriculture the other day Issued an order prohib- {ting Importation of Irish potatoeg from Ireland, England, Germany and Austria. : ‘The department's action was caused by the discovery that the potatoes grown in these countries are Infected with “potato warts,” ihich makes them unfit for hum3a consumption, FOR COLORED LADIES ONLY TAILORED TO MEASURE SUITS $18.00 UP PECT FIT AND A SQUARE DEAL YOU AT THE UNION AILOR D.

Most Noble Grand, Worthy Vice Grand, Officers and Members of Mt. Sier Lodge No. 2441, G. U. O. of O. F; Greeting: We, your committee on the memorial of Brother Cyrus Shellman, must humbly say, in our feeble effort to point out some of the many virtues of this noble brother, we implore your attention. We see him as one of the oldest and most peaceful residents of this beautiful and historic city, living one of the most consistent christian lives after his conversion. He was a member of the First Bryan Baptist Church, and during his membership there, whatever was for the uplift of his church, he was a help therein; when discouragements came, he was there, in raising funds for his church even for the poor, he contributed to the collections. We shall now take a retrospective view of his fraternal activities. Quite a number of years ago Brother Shellman decided that his life would be incomplete without connecting his efforts with his brothers in a fraternal assembly, therefore, after looking over the wide field of the various secret orders, he selected the Odd-Fellows as his choice, then after viewing the many lodges in this city of this order, he decided that he would cast his lot with dear old Mt. Sier. At the time he joined her, she was a small lodge. He fell in line with the brothers, planning for the future success of his lodge by giving his time, talent and money, and on the other hand he shared her hardships, discouragements and adversities and after many hard battles for many long years, he saw her move upward in membership and finance, for which we imagine that we can hear him singing praise to an Omnipotent Gd. But alas! Before he completed his pilgrimage on this terrestrial ball, an Omnipotent God allowed paralysis to place him on his bed, that he might get all things pertaining to the salvation of his soul ready to meet a true and just Savior. When death took him from our midst, he died in full triumph. In his death, the city has lost a peaceful citizen, the church a faithful member, the family a devoted and loving husband and father and the lodge a loyal member. Truly it is our loss, but heaven's gain, and gladly do we proclaim that he is not dead, but sleepeth. He is gone, but not forgotten. All of which do we submit with sympathetic hearts.
