VOLUME XXVIII Interesting Week At Tuskegee. MANY DISTINGUISHED VISITORS ON CAMPUS Special Trains From Chicago And New York—New Hospital Dedicated—Clock Chimes Installed—Meeting of Board Trustees. Tuskegee, Institute, Ala., February 22. The week just closing is one long to be remembered by the Tuskegee Institute. Gathered on the campus of the Institute during the week was as large and as important albody of men and women of wealth and standing in the citizenry of the country as has ever before been gotten together in the South. For three days and a half Tuskegee Institute, entertaining the visiting members of the Board of Trustees of the school, entertained also, and happily, a hundred of the best representatives of the intellectual and civic life of the nation who had come from the East and the West to see the work of the great school located here. ROSEWALD GETS GREAT WELCOME. The visitors began arriving Wednesday afternoon, February 19th. A special train out of Chicago, made up of the personal friends of Julius Rosenwald, the merchant prince and philanthropist, and bearing Pullman and private cars, rolled into the Institute grounds to the deafening applause of the 1,600 students and the teaching body headed by Principal Booker T. Washington and the officers of the school. Amid Tuskegee cheers and yells, and the martial strains of the famous Tuskegee band, that appropriately played "Welcome Home," Mr. Rosenwald and his party received at the Capital of Negro struggle and striving, a veritable hero's welcome. With him were men and women whose names are a part of the high register of the city of Chicago. There was so much of welcome for Mr. Rosenwald that he very generously shared it with his friends and guests. They took it because, as they said, it was a welcome altogether without a grudge. FAMOUS NEW YORKERS ALSO PRESENT. Several hours after Mr. Rosenwald had fetched his party, the special train out of New York rolled in. On it were the former Mayor of New York, Hon. Seth Low, who is Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Tuskegee, William Jay Schieffelin and Frank Trumbull, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, and also a trustee of Tuskegee Institute. The welcome given to Mr. Low and his forty friends was equally as warm as that extended to Mr. Rosenwald. A WEEK OF INTEREST. From the moment the guests arrived until, to the soft strains of a touching farewell serenade by the Tuskegee Institute band at the Institute Depot, they re-entrained, every hour was filled with feats and feasts. Mr. Low delivered a brief and eloquent address on Wednesday evening in the Institute Chapel referring to the matchless work being done by the matchless Tuskegee worker. A great audience filled the Institute Chapel at each of the four great meetings held there. And the welcome first extended to the visitors was there repeated over and over again with enthusiasm born only of gratitude. The mid-winter meeting of the Board of Trustees was an important one. The Board, with Mr. Low, Chairman, presiding, held sessions Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The ladies in both the Chicago and New York parties took a particular delight in the work of the girls at Tuskegee, and expressed themselves as astonished, but not grievously so, at the great progress being made by the colored women of the South in trained handicrafts. Wednesday evening in the chapel when the industrial exercises were held, there was every "smell" of labor raised to honor's side. The platform was filled with anvils, forges, ovens for baking bread, mattresses, corn and corn shucks, and as a member of the Senior Class got up to speak on "How to Keep an Animal in Repair;" in walked a white horse, as if he knew that he was a subject. Two great improvements were dedicated as a part of the Institute Friends of Dr. J. B. Gant will regret to learn that he has severed his connections with the Savannah Pharmacy and has returned to New York city. Dr. Gant, although his stay in this city was but about two years duration, has made many friends here and his departure last Wednesday for New York city, where he enters the custom's service, will be somewhat of a surprise. It had been expected that Dr. Gant would leave the city about the middle of this month, and quite a number of the business and professional men had planned giving him a farewell reception, but his rather sudden departure, occasioned by a telegram which he received two days before he left stating that a position was awaiting his early arrival in New York, made this impossible. While the business and professional men here especially are sorry to lose Dr. Gant, yet they, together with the very wide acquaintance which he has made in the city, wish him abundant success in his new work. The departure of Dr. Gant leaves Dr. Moody in charge of the Savannah Pharmacy. St. Paul C. M. E. Church. The two weeks' meeting at St. Paul C. M. E. Church, was very effective for good. New life and a spirit for work can be seen on the faces of each member. The great annual union rally, in connection with the 43rd, anniversary of St. Paul C. M. E. Church, will be pulled off the second Sunday in April. Each captain will report not less than one hundred dollars. Each member is asked to give five dollars or more. --- Evangelical Ministers' Union The Evangelical Ministers' Union met Tuesday with Rev. W. V. Daughtry, presiding. Devotional services were conducted by Rev. M. H. Rutherford. After having addressed the throne of grace, the 8th, Psalm was then read. "Sweet hour of Prayer," was sung. Next Tuesday the Union will have preaching service at Asbury M. E. Church, P. E., Rev. B. S. Hannah, will preach. The public is invited. The order of the day was a paper read by Rey, L. A. Townsley, subject the "Sons of God and the Daughters of men," (Who are they?) The subject was well handled and lengthily discussed. The members of the Union offered commendation. A rising vote of thanks was tendered the writer. The subject for next Tuesday will be Sermonic report. The Union gave Dr. P. F. Curry, D. D., pastor of St. James, A M. E. Church, a donation for the excellent entertainment on February 19th, and the congregation. Visitors always welcome. during the week. As a matter of simple fact, the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, erected at a cost of $50,000, and the equipment of which costs an additional $5,000, was placed here by the granddaughter of the war governor of Massachusetts, father of the famous 54th Regiment of the Civil War, for the colored people of the South. The hospital 90 by 136 feet has three wings or stems projecting on the rear. It has eleven porches, The main feature of the building being a colonial porch fourteen feet wide supported by four large cement columns. It contains fifty rooms, with fifty-three beds not including bed rooms set aside for the head nurses and internes, offices for the director, waiting rooms, &c. The building is constructed of brick with artificial stone trimmings. The roof is covered with slate. The interior finish is yellow pine, except the floors which are of birch. The floors of the halls, kitchens, and bath rooms are terrazzo. The operating room, sterilizing room and anaesthetizing room have tile floors and tile wainscoting, other floors are rift yellow pine and maple. A silent nurses' call system, operated by electricity, has been installed and a complete X-ray apparatus. The building is lighted throughout by electricity, and heated by steam. Modern sanitary plumbing has been installed throughout in bathrooms, kitchen, etc. The dedication was an impressive occasion. Chairman Low presided and Principal Washington made the opening address. The other improvements that marked the interesting week was the installation of the clock of chimes in imposing White Hall, one of the largest school buildings in the South. The massive clock is enclosed in a great steel and brass frame, and secured on steel beams that are deepened more than eighty feet. The clock may be heard for miles.

Frank Rogers, one of the new licensed exhorters, preached his initial sermon. So far as the Sabbath is concerned, it was full of good things from the word of God, both helpful and instructive. At 6 p.m. the A. C. E. League met and quite a lengthy discussion was held on the topic, "Medical Missions," Matt. 10:7-11. The literary part of the meeting was beautifully carried out. At 8 p.m. Rev. Townsley preached a beautiful sermon. Text, "Lovest thou me," theme "Love to Christ," St. John 21:17.

Before the sermon the rector, Archdeacon Bright, made a short address of welcome and congratulated the Bishop on the occasion of the 21st anniversary of his consecration to the Episcopate which he celebrated on the 24th inst. He spoke most affectionately of the rector whose work he heartily appreciated, and told the congregation that they would never again get another who would make such unselfish sacrifice for them. He also said that the rector was deserving the best place in the possession of a Bishop and that he would not hesitate to give him at any time the best place he had in his diocese. The sermon was up to the usual standard and gave the people abundant food for thought. Monday night March 3rd, the Rev. Mr. Whitney of St. Paul's Church, Augusta, one of the oldest churches in Georgia, will preach. Please come to hear him.

On Sunday after the services the church paper, St. Benedict's Messenger, will be distributed; get a copy; it contains interesting reading. In the March issue also you will find the financial report of 1912 Tribune Among the Masons The brethren throughout the jurisdiction will regret to hear of the continued illness of Mrs. Butler, beloved wife of Grand Master Butler, and their sincere prayer will be for her rapid recovery. The annual report of all Lodges with fees is due to-day. In Turkey it is said that there are forty-five lodges and two chapters. Bro. Mahomet Orphi Pacha is Grand Master. Instead of the interest in Masonry waning, it should increase as the years pass by, and its beauties and possibilities are, or should be better understood, and such would always be the case if the brothers would give it the careful study which it deservs—Missouri Freemason. We know Masons who will cheerfully and even gladly pay the sum of one hundred dollars for a so-called Masonic degree—the 33d—who cannot be induced to give three cents a week for a Masonic periodical. Can you give a good reason for the above well-known fact—Voice Reyiew. As Masons we should endeavor to cultivate a disposition that will be agreeable to all mankind. In other words, we should instill into our daily life the true teachings of Masonry, so that the profane world can see that there is true merit in Masonry. When we do this we will have more seekers after mystic rites—Masonic News. No lives on earth can be nobler than those spent for the uplifting and betterment of mankind. For them there is no death. Could the radiant glow of joy and happiness which they have poured into the dark and desolate homes of the distressed be reflected upon their death-bed we would see them pass from this life to that of the realms above in a halo of heavenly glory. The voices that, throughout such a noble life have been, whispering words of cheer and encouragement to the sorrowful may be silent, the hands that patiently and mercifully have administered to the weak and suffering may be folded in the embrace of death, but the life itself and memory of their deeds will live forever.—The Globe. St. James A. M. E. Church Corner Arnold and Perry Streets. Rev. P. F. Curry pastor. On Sunday morning at 11 a. m., there was preaching by the pastor.

At 7 p. m., was Allen Christian Endeavor-League meeting and at 8 p. m., was preaching by the pastor. His text was the first part of the 6th, chapter of Matthew. A very large crowd attended each service. A cordial invitation is extended to all to be present first Sunday in March, which is communion Sunday. Woodlawn Park Changes Hands. Woodlawn Park, which has been operated for the past two years by a company of young men of the city, has recently been leased by them to Mr. Thomas G. Young, of Drayton street. While the park has proven a financial success to the company which established it, and also operated it up to this week, yet because of the fact that the time of the young men of the company was so taken up with their other work that they could not handily give the park the attention necessary they decided that they would lease the property for at least one season. Mr. Thomas G. Young, who is now operating the park, will continue to give the patrons of the Woodlawn Park every consideration. The park is now undergoing improvement and will, when the work of installing more lights, swings and other like features is completed, be one of the best outing places which our people possess. Dates for securing the park can be had by applying at 143 Drayton street, or phoning 2034. NUMBER 24 Many Societies Oppose Excursions HIGH PRICE CHARGED: FOR BOATS THE CAUSE Meeting of Representatives From Many Organizations Called For This Month—Feeling Against River Excursions Very General. Perhaps not for many years has there been such general opposition among our people to river excursions as is being manifested this season. The reason for this feeling among our people against this kind of outing is that the company which operates the two steamboats which are to be chartered for river excursions, has raised the price; and the general opinion is that at the present cost for boat hire, twenty-five dollars higher than that of last year, nothing is to be realized by the organizations patronizing the steamboat company. Furthermore, many of the organizations which usually give water outings are opposed to a continuance of this form of outing because of the fact that during certain months last season Negroes were not allowed on the upper decks of the boats on their regular trips; but were compelled to ride on the lower decks with the freight. For these reasons the feeling is high against boat excursions this year, and as a result of a communication made public by the Dove Aid and Social Club in The Tribune several weeks ago, the Savannah Home Association, whose water outings have always proven very successful, has issued a call to the other societies of the city, religious, fraternal, benevolent and social, to send representatives to a meeting which is to be held at the Association's Rooms. 410 Taylor street, west, on the fifth Monday night, this month, to discuss the advisability of discontinuing river excursions. The prevailing opinion is that if the steamboat company does not reduce its prices for boat hire many of the organizations which generally go down the river everyummer will turn their attention to one other form of outing, the result being that a very appreciable decrease will be seen in river excursions, as the Negro organizations almost monopolize this form of outing. Asbury Church At 11 a.m. the pastor Rev. W. V. Daughtry preached a soul stirring sermon. At 8 p.m. Miss Bessie M. Garrison, field secretary of the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the M. E. Church, spoke to a large audience about the work of the society. All who heard this noble woman were greatly inspired. Our revival meeting began Tuesday night. Rev. E. H. Oliver, pastor of Chapel street M. E. Church of Atlanta, Ga., will reach here Monday for the purpose of assisting the pastor ten days in this meeting. Rev. Oliver is a great preacher and is especially adapted to revival work. Come and hear him for yourself. Preaching tomorrow at 11 a.m. 8 p.m., preaching and Lord's Supper. Everybody invited. St. Philip Dots Sunday was an ideal day. Our members and friends took advantage and were out in full force to hear Rev. Singleton at the eleven o'clock service. They were well paid for being present. Rev. Singleton delivered such a sermon as has not been heard at St. Philip for many a day. At 8:15 the Union Brotherhood Branch worshipped in a body. They turned out very strong. Rev. Singleton delivered an instructive and uplifting discourse. Their financial donation to the church was very good. On to-morrow night St. Philip will start their spring revival for two weeks or more. Every member and friend is invited to assist in this great work of saving souls. The pastor, officials and members of the church are under many obligations to the friends who assisted in making the late ministerial entertainment such a success. Our Sunday School is making preparations for their Easter exercises. The following services will be held on to-morrow: Prayer meeting 5:30 a.m. Preaching, baptism of infants and adults, and persons taken in full membership at 11 a.m. Sunday School at 2:30 p.m. Communion services at 4 p.m. A. C. E League at 6:30 p.m. Preaching at 8:15 p.m. Everybody invited. NO RELAXATION IN PRECAUTIONS Army and Navy Still Moving Towards Mexico. HUERTA'S MESSÁGE TO TAFT. Heads Of Military, Departments Resting On Their Oars While Orders Issued During the Stress Are Being Carried Out. Washington. — President Taft received the following telegram from Victoriano Huerta, Mexico's provisional governor general: I have the honor to inform you that I have overthrown this government; the forces are with me, and from now on peace and prosperity will reign. Your obedient servant. (Signed) VICTORIANO HUERTA, Commander-in-Chief Reaction from the severe strain under which the diplomatic, military and naval branches of the government have been laboring for the last 10 days because of the Mexican revolt is marked by comparative lethargy prevailing in those departments. A hasty consultation between the heads of various departments, conducted to some extent by subordinates, resulted in a general decision to maintain the existing attitude toward Mexico not only in a diplomatic sense, but so far as that involves the preparation of the Army and Navy to meet any emergency that might arise. Mobolization Orders. Though naturally gratified at the termination of the almost continuous battle that has raged within the heart of Mexico City for so long a period of time, it was deemed to be unwise to permit that sentiment to affect the progress of arrangements that are being made adequately to protect the lives of foreigners in Mexico, in case the situation should get beyond control of the new temporary government. Original orders to the Army officers to have the soldiers ready to move at short notice and to the transports to proceed to their assigned destinations where they were to embark troops and marines, were allowed to remain in force, officials reasoning that some benefit is to be derived from the experience that is gained through this attempt at mobilization, even if there should be no occasion to give it a practical turn. Probably some reply will be made by President Taft to the personal message from Gen. Victoriano Huerta, who signed himself commander-in-chief, announcing that he had overthrown the Madero government, but it will be of such a nature as not to constitute a political recognition of the new government. Awaiting Developments. Within a week at the longest the new Mexican Congress should be in session, in conformity with the call just issued by the military governor. Upon the extent to which General Huerta and his group transfers to the Congress the powers of government will depend the attitude of the United States toward the de facto government of Mexico. Meanwhile the attitude of the administration here will remain one of passive, though interested, observation. Residence Of One Year Will Be Required In Nevada. Reno, Nev.—The Nevada Senate eliminated Neveda as an easy divorce state by passing a bill requiring a residence of one year in the state before an action for divorce can be started. The Senate also voted down a resolution to make the new bill effective in January, 1915. The old bill will pass into history at the close of this year. HAS WALKED 7,000 MILES. Sergeant Walsh Is Testing New Shoes For the Army. St. Louis.—Sergeant John M. Walsh, U. S. A., arrived at Jefferson Barracks on foot after a 7,000-mile tramp across the continent and back under orders to test army shoes. The sergeant left New York April 10 and is returning from California. He resumed his journey with Fort Ben Harrison (Ind.) his objective point. West Virginia Legislature Will Not Submit Amendment. Charleston, W. Va.—An amendment to the state constitution to provide for the recall of municipal, county and state officials, including judges, will not be submitted to the people at the next general election. This was decided when the House, by a vote of 38 to 30, defeated the resolution. NEWSPAPER FOR AMERICANS. Will Be Published At the United States Embassy. Mexico City.—Arrangements have been made to publish a newspaper at the American Embassy. The object of Ambassador Wilson in publishing the paper is to relieve the anxiety among Americans in the city, who are shut off from all sources of information regarding the present trouble. REVOLUTION MADEROLL Charles K. Hamilton Leaps From Falling Machine. To Save Himself From Being Crushed To Death. Hamilton Jumped When Nearing the Ground. Jacksonville, Fla.—By leaping from his falling machine in mid-air Avilator Charles K. Hamilton probably saved his life, although he suffered severe internal injuries when he plunged to the earth. The machine hit head on and turned over twice, completely wrecking it. Hamilton struck the earth with a crash and was picked up for dead. He recovered consciousness an hour later. His injuries may prove fatal. Hamilton was making a practice flight and had traveled about 15 miles south of Pablo Beach, when he turned and started back to the little seashore town. About 12 miles south of Pablo the machine was seen to dart towards the sand banks. Suddenly it took a downward dip, landed upon its front wheels and turned over twice before coming to a standstill. Claude Nolan and his men, who were following in an auto, rushed up to the machine, expecting to find the daring aviator a corpse. He was laying far out in front of the machine in an unconscious condition. Hamilton did not regain consciousness until he was placed aboard the ferry in South Jacksonville. As soon as he opened his eyes he remarked to the attending physician, "We must have had a spill." He then reappeared into unconsciousness again, and when he next opened his eyes he was on the operating table in the De Sota Hospital. His first remark was For God's sake, doctor, give me a cigarette." Upon examination it was found that no bones were broken. He was badly shaken up, however, and may be fatally injured internally. His left leg is badly wrenched and he is covered with brushes. SAILS WITH HIS SERUM. Dr. Friedmann On His Way To New York To Make Test. Berlin.—Dr. Friedrich Friedmann, whose claims to the discovery of a serum curing tuberculosis have been much discussed, sailed for New York Tuesday on the steamship Kronprinzessin Cecilia. He took with him a quantity of the live germs which he asserts are so efficacious, and it is understood he proposes to attempt the cure of 95 out of 100 cases of tuberculosis, a test for which a New York banker has offered a million dollar fee if success is attained. TUMULTY.FINDS A HOME. Wilson's Secretary Leases. It For Only Two Years. Washington-Joseph P. Tumulty, who will be secretary to President Wilson after March 4, selected the residence he will occupy during the time that he will rule over the Executive office. The house, which is a new one, is in a fashionable section, and is a colonial brick structure, containing ten rooms and three baths. Some comment was caused when Mr. Tumulty signed the lease for the premises for only two years. TO CREMATE POET'S BODY: Ashes Of Joaquin Miller To Be Scattered To The Winds. San Francisco. --- The body of Joaquin Miller lies in Juanita cottage, named for his daughter, on the Hight, as he called his home in the foothills of Alameda county. Hundreds flocked there to look their last on the Poet of the Sierras. The body will be cremated and borne to the funeral monument on the estate which the poet built with his own hands several years ago, and there the ashes will be scattered to the winds. There Will Be No Strike of Firemen on Eastern Lines. They Realize That the Public Would Not Stand For a Strike-De- New York.—There will be no firemen's strike on the eastern railroads. The railroads yielded and agreed to arbitrate under the Erdman act the controversy with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. The firemen had stood, to a man, for this method of arbitration ever since the deadlock began; the railroads had stood firm for arbitration before a commission of six or seven men. Three men, acting under the law, will decide the firemen's claims. Their decision will be binding. The firemen selected their representative on the board of arbitrators as soon as the railroads' decision was announced. He is Albert Phillips, of Sacramento, Cal., vice-president of their organization. The railroads selected as their man W. W. Atterbury, vice-president and general manager of the Pennsylvania lines east. Within a day or two these two men will select the third or neutral member. Within thirty days thereafter the arbitrators must render their findings. FRANCE HAILS NEW PRESIDENT. Inauguration Of Poincare On a Bitter Cold Day. Paris.—The inauguration of Raymond Poincare as president of the French Republic for a term of seven years took place Tuesday with very simple ceremonies. There was a great display of popular enthusiasm as the new chief executive proceeded to the Palace of the Elysee to take office. Premier Briand shortly after 2 o'clock in the afternoon called at the private residence of the President-elect. The two then proceeded in a four-horse open carriage, escorted by a regiment of Culrasiers, through the Avenue du Bols de Boulogne, the Avenue des Champs Elysee and the Avenue de Marigny to the palace. M. Fallieres, the retiring president, with Emile Loubet, the only other living ex-president of the French Republic, received Polncare on the steps of the palace and walked with him to the reception hall, where M. Fallieres delivered a brief address, at the end of which he transferred the seals of office to M. Polncare. The latter in a few remarks accepted the responsibilities of his new post. DOUBLE WAGES FOR A WEEK. General Sanford Thus Remembers 3,000 Employes In Will. Amsterdam, N. Y.—Double wages for a week for each of the more-than 3,000 employees of the carpet factory in which he was a partner is provided for in the will of General Stephen Sanford, which was filed here.

WANTS A FLY SWATTER. Ohio Woman Recommended For the Job In New York. New York—Dr. William H. Hale, superintendent of public baths in Brooklyn, has recommended to the Board of Estimates that a woman be employed as "official fly swatter" for this city, and suggests that the position be given to Miss Jean Dawson, a teacher in the Normal Training School in Cleveland, O. Miss Dawson recently headed a campaign which resulted in her home town becoming known as "the flyless city." Commander of Federal Forces Provisional President. REVOLUTION MAY BE OVER. Coup Executed: By General Blanquet. The Result Of a Plot To Overthrow the President and End Conflict. Mexico City.—Francisco I. Madero, arrested in the National Palace by General Blanquet, one of his own commanders, was forced to sign his resignation from the presidency. General Victoriano Hureta, commander of the federal troops which have been fighting Diaz, has been proclaimed provisional president. Gustavo Madero and all the cabinet ministers, with the exception of Ernesto Madero, are under arrest. The vice-president of the republic, Jose Pino Suarez, is still at liberty, but is hiding. Election To Be Held. The women members of the Madero family who were in Chapultepec Castle, were whisked away in an automobile by friends who had learned of the coup of the National Palace. Telegrams have been sent to the governors of the states notifying them of the proclamation of Huerta as provisional president, and also to the military commanders assuring them that general elections would be held for president. General Huerta made a speech from the balcony of the palace to the assembled crowds. He declared that he had no personal ambition, and announced himself as military governor and General Blanquet as military commander of the federal district. It is finally believed that a definite agreement will be reached between the rebel forces and General Huerta. The negotiations will be conducted From the first it had been known that General Blanquet was unwilling to fight. His men were of the same mind. He held complete command over them, and it was not doubted that they would follow him in any adventure, which they did at the National Palace. An agreement between Generals Blanquet and Huerta was reached, but the first intimation that Blanquet's men had of the new role they were to play was shortly before the successful stroke was made. Blanquet, drew his men up in order and delivered a stirring speech. To End the Conflict "This inhuman battle must end," he said. "The time has come when some drastic means must be taken to stop a conflict in which father is killing son and brother is fighting against brother; when non-combatants are sharing the fate of war—and all this because of the caprice of one man." Blanquet then issued orders for the arrest of the president and assigned a detachment to that duty. Madero was soon a prisoner in his own apartments in the palace. ROBS BANK OF $200,000. Efforts To Pass $10,000 Bills Cause Arrest Of Thieves. St. Louis.—The mystery surrounding the theft of $200,000 in American currency in Havana, Cuba, last September has been solved. Four men accused of the crime are under arrest in Havana and one of them has confessed, according to, a cablegram received by the St. Louis police from Havana. The arrests and confession resulted from the attempt of Ramon Llando, a Cuban, to get foreign exchange on two of the stolen $10,000 bills at a St. Louis bank last week. Llano was arrested and held for the Cuban authorities and acting on information he gave the Havana arrests were made. REBELS OBJECT TO HUERTA. Colonel Orozco, Sr., and Colonel Galan To Fight On. Laredo, Texas.—When informed that Madero government had been overthrown and General Huerta named Provisional President, Col. Pascual Orozco, Sr., and Col. Andres Garza Galan, revolutionary leaders in the north of Mexico, declared the revolutionists in that section would not approve the selection of Huerta and would continue the rebellion.

He gives Norfolk park to Sheffleld or his seat to an old lady with the same willingness. On one occasion he made a special journey from London to be present at a chil- dren's concert at Angmering, in Sus- sex. At the station, where his car- rlage was in readiness, he observed a woman with a large parcel in her arms, and {mmediately invited her in- to the carriage with him, as the wind was bitterly cold. But ghe was going the opposite way—with the result that she had the carriage and he walked. The thing is of small account—too small for most dukes to have troubled with. Your ordinary man might have given his Holbein to the nation, and kept his seat. But the Tiolbein was not useful, or the duke, at least, could not see it in that light. It meant, how- ever, a thing that was much more use- ful—the money that goes every year fn its thousands to charittes. for me. And she is anxious. She was afraid something might happen on my last trip, but,” and he smiled proudly, “I brought her in on time.” An hour Jater Mr. Tuttle was found in the dining room of his cozy home opposite Garfield Park at 342 Hamlin avenue.

Her husband, Major Henry Frederick Elliott Lewin, who is in the Royal Field artillery, is the son of Commander Lewin, R. N.; and was born in 1872. After serving two years in the Londonderry artillery militia, in 1894 he joined the Royal artillery. In 1900 he became, captain, and the next year joined the Egyptian army.

Here is an Australian writer's estimate of him: “Mr. Deakin 1s one of’those charm- ing perponalities, like Sir Wiltrid Lauricr or Mr. Balfour, who counts as many warm personal friends amongst his political opponents as he does amongst his own partisans. ‘He can throw a halo of attraction around the orifice of Hades’ Is the phrase in which one of his contemporaries has expressed Mr. Deakin's superlative powers as an orator, and to these pow- ers of speech he joins a literary abil- Sty, a spirit of idealfem, and a read- iness for self-effacoment which make him a unique ;figure among present day politicians of the common- wealth.” a Woman’s Method. “What are you leoking for, miss?” “My gloves.” 7 “But did you look for them in your handbag?" “No; that ia the last place I look.

BY Zhe ORBORKE | Jt was a day of surprises from the beginning, Susan Megs was a senior at Grayton college, and though that in- stitutign was only two hours from Su- san’s home in the suburbs of the large city, week ends away from college were out of the ordinary run of events. Susan was planning on this particular Saturday morning a day of gqeat achievement. She was going to do some much neglected studying, to do a fmonth’s mending, to spend an hour or so at hockey, write letters, make some fudge, have an afternoon tea party-fn her room for some fresh- men and go on a long walk With a fa- yorite instructor. It was at breakfast that her plans received their first disturbance. She was summoned to answer a long dis- tance telephone call. A man's voice spoke as she took the receiver in her band—a fact that was disquieting enough at Grayton where one is sur- rounded entirely by feminine voices. What is more, it was the voice of that friendly young John Freeman whom Susan had met cnly a month ago at a classmate’s house party. He had found excuses, flimsy pretexts, to write to her on several occasions, and had asked the privilege of coming to see her at her home in her next vaca- tion. “Susan,” he asked, using her first name for the first time," can’t you man- age to get off for a week end? I know it is awfully abrupt, but It is a little house party at my aunt's. It is Just the same crowd that we had at the other house party and we must have you? Aunt lives fn the city and I am at her house half the time, you know.” Susan hesitated, then she accepted. She was to come to the city after lunch, and John was to meet her at the station. But before Susan had finished her breakfast another long distance call came. This call was from her mother. “Susan, you must come home today. Bridget has left and grandfather has got the gout again. It isn’t that we need you, but you must come to the city and get a cook at the employ- ment agency.” | Susan protested, but in vain. After all, she thought resignedly, as she Ustened to her mother’s entreaties, why should she go to John Freeman's aunt’s house party? It was foolish of heP to care especially about John when he probably knew a dozen other girls whom he liked quite as well as he did Susan. No, she would not go. “Yes, mother,” she, sald. “I can manage to get the cook, and as long as I am near home | will come the rest of the way. Of course, I would have to bring her out with me.” Accordinging Susan dispatched a,tel- egram to John, saying that she could not come, quickly dressed without fin- ishing breakfast and sped to the sta- tion. In an hour she was at the em- ployment agency, where she was greeted with the news that Bridget had decided to stay; that Susan's mother had just telephoned trom the country to tell the agent to tell Su- san. Susan was frritated. She was not dressed for the house party, in fact she had dreesed in such a hurry that she was especially dissatisfied with her appearance. She was look- ing really dejected when she was sud- denly surprised by the overbearing presence of a much befurred middle- aged woman at her side, “Can you wait on table?” she asked in a cold, haughty tone. Susan looked up ready to laugh. “Will “you come for twenty a month?" asked the woman hastily. “No, mum.” sald Susan. “Twenty-five then?” said the em- ployer. “No, mum, I take thirty-five or noth- ing,” said Susan, thinking she had named a prohibitive wage. “Very well,” replied the woman. “It 1s exorbitant, but I simply must have some one. Have you your uniforms with you? Can you come right away? [am In a desperate hurry.” “That I have not,” sald Susan, turn. ng on her heel. “We can stop at a shop and buy them,” said the employer. ‘You are a pretty average shape.” She turned Susan around with a strong hand on the “slight shoulder. “Yes, that will be all right. Come on, I am in a very great hurry. I won't stop to see the agent about taking -you. I can attend fo that on Monday. Come on, I say.” Susan was ready to laugh. “I guess [ won't be coming,” she said. “But you must,” insisted the woman with an emphatic tap of the foot. “Now be a nice girl. See, 1 am ina Ireadful fix.

Tt was John Freeman and in a minute more Susan realized that her employer was his aunt wio was giving the house party which she had declined and for the sake of which she had been employed in such haste. She thought for a minute, and then came to the cook. | “Tam going to leave,” she sald. “I ‘wish you would tell the inadam.” Ina minute the “madam” was in the kitchen in a combination of rage and petition, but Susan was firm, Then the “madam” went upstairs and told her trotibles to her good looking nephew. “I can fix her up all right,” he said, trying to brush aside his aunt's anxie- ties in a word. “Seemed lke a bright faced, trim little person at the door, though I didn’t really look her G¥er,” and with that he descended’ two, steps at a time to the kitchen. Ho was de- termined to keep the new mafd and he would beg her out of pity, or he would bribe her to stay. Of course the house party was a failure now that. Susan had decided not to come, but for his aunt’s sake he would do all that he could. “Where is the new maid, Maggie?” he asked with easy friendliness of the old Irish cook. But for some reason the new maid hdd fied up the back stairs at the sound of his volce. He followed her two steps at a time. “Wait a minute,” he begged as she shot ahead of him. “Won't you lis ten?” She was in the hall of the serv- ants’ quarters before he caught her. Then she turned her back on him and covered her face with,her hands. | “Is Maggie mean to you?” he askéd, thinking that the girl was crying. Then as he drew a crisp dollar bill | from his pocket, “There, there, don't mind her. Take this and forget it. Maggie is all right when you know | her.” Susan tried to escape into her room, but he barred the way and. with two strong hands he pulled her hands from her face and lifted that face to his own, ‘ “What can I do?" Susan safd, Iook- ing appealingly at him. “Your aunt mistook me for a maid and I thought {t was so impertinent of her that I pre- tended I was just to pay her back. Then she made me come and I came. I never saw such a compelling-woman in my life. Of course, I didn't know. I would love to bluff it through only I am afraid when she found out she would think I was dreadful. All I can do is to get away. Please help me.” It took several minutes to explain, and finally at John’s suggestion Su- san decided to.stay, and every one was to be let into the joke and every one was to help take the place of tX missing maid. The house party was a great success and John’s aunt was quite willing to laugh over her own mistake. “She is a mighty sweet little girl,” sald the aunt to her nephew Monday morning after the guests had all de- parted, “though I don't think much of her notions of studying sociology. John, why will such pretty young women do such blue-stockingish things? If I hadn't recognized at first sight that she was unusual I wouldn't have agreed to pay her thirty-five dol- lars a ‘month. That ts really exorbi- tant. She {s the sort of girl, John,” went on the aunt, “that I should think you would want to marry, but you men are so hard to please.” “Of course I want to marry her aunt,” sald John, beaming. “That is what I wanted to have this party “for, so you could look her over and I could have a chancato ask her. Iam glad you approve. And as for soci- ology, I think she has done about all the original research she will need for the career she fs going to follow.” (Copyright, 1913, by the McClure News- : paper Syndicate.)

This happened when I was sec- dnd mate of the schooner White Wings, bound from Boston to Sndyey. Australia, with a load of empty bot- tles, “We had a good passage round the Horn and good weather till we were off the coast of’ New Zealand. There the fail of a typhoon struck us and for five days we ran before it under bare poles. On the morning of the sixth day the schooner suddenly broached to, and turned turtle like a flash. The first thing I knew I was struggling in the ocean, _ “I saw Jimmy a few feet away a-clingin’ to his wooden leg, which ‘floated him nicely. Just then a bunch of bottles came to the surface. They Were empty and floated al] around. When the schooner went down her sides had opened and these cases of bottles came to the surface. Sud- denly I got an idea. I caught a num- ber of them and swimmtn” over to Jimmy I told him to whittle corks from his wooden leg. _, “After we had got about a dozen -bottles corked they helped to hold us up. Pretty soon we had, 250 bottles tightly stoppered and ready for use. There was long stringers of kelp floating all around, and we used this kelp to bind the bottles together into a big raft. When the sun dried the kelp it made a firm, substantlal glass ship. By collectin’ more bottles we built a Httle house on the raft, and also made a mast by lashin’ bottles together. We also managed to make a sail of kelp and with a bottle rudder we headed for New Zealand, 200 miles away.~Luckily it began to rain and we caught enough water to supply ou wants, agd by holding the bottles un- der water we caught little fish which would swim in to investigate. “After ten days we sighted land and that night we landed in Albert Town. This {s a big native settlement. It just happened that they were crazy for bottles, so we traded all the bot- tles for about two quarts of fine pearls. They were satisfled, and so were we. for we were picked up by a trading schooner a week later an@ taken to Sydney, where we sold the pearls for enough to buy a ship of our own, and f was captain and Jimmy was supercargo. “That was how a bottle, or I should say bottles, got me my first ship."— Chicago News. Parrot at Family Prayers. One morning our family prayers were interrupted {n a comical way. A Captain Druid and his wife were staying with us for a few days. Hav- ing no child, their affections centered in a gray parrot on whose education most of thelr time was spent. For fear of accidents he was not allowed in the breakfast room till after pray- ers. One morning, however, by some mischance, he was there; but behaved with becoming decorum until prayers were nearly over. My father had got into the middle of the Lord's Prayer, when, in a loud voice, Poll cried out: “As many as are of the contrary opinion will say ‘aye,’ contrary, ‘no.’ ‘The ‘ayes’ have it.” As I need hardly say, prayers were finished under difficulties—From “Seventy Years of Irish Life,” by W- R.

SATURDAY, MARCH 1ST, 1913. What was supposed by a bad state of affairs in Mexico grew decidedly worse within the past few weeks when her president was deposed and later assassinated. The republic of Mexico now has another head in the person of its present provisional president, Gen. Huerta. He has promised to bring peace out of the present chaos. He has already given promise of doing this by ruling with a rod of iron. We do not known what will be the final outcome of the Mexican situation but we believe that some time will elapse before peace and quiet will reside in the republic. The Mexican people are apparently far from the self government state. For a long time they must be made to act and not allowed to act for themselves. They do not seem to be ready for the exercise of the majority rule. Our sympathy goes out to the Mexican people. We extend our best wishes to Gen. Huerta and hope that the fate of Madero does not await him. The arrival in this country of Dr. Fredrick P. Friedman, the much talked of discoverer of the new tuberculosis cure, ought to be of much interest to our people in all parts of this country. Dr. Friedman comes to this country at the invitation of Charles E. Finlay, a New York Banker, who hopes that the physician will be able to cure his son-in-law of the disease. It is stated that an offer of $1,000,000 is made by Mr. Finlay to Dr. Friedman if the latter is able to cure 95 out of the 100 patients in this country. In speaking about his discovery Dr. Friedman said that it was not a secret and that he proposed to make known to all the world the method by which it was created and the manner in which it was administrated. It consists of "bacilli" taken from a turtle into which tubercule bacilli from a human being had been injected." Our people should watch with keen interest the work of Dr. Friedman while he is in this country. According to statistics, our people are the greatest sufferers from tuberculosis. Any cure of this dread disease ought to be hailed with delight by us. We shall follow the movements of Dr. Friedman with interest and in the meantime hope and pray that his effort in attempting to rid humanity of its deadliest disease will be crowned with success. Before we go to press again, there will be a change in the official life of our National Government. President elect Wilson and Vice President elect Marshall will have been inaugurated, the democratic party will assume control of the government in all of its branches and hence the machinery will be operated by new hands. It is indeed interesting to note the confidence with which the business men in all parts of the country are possessed, as the time for the advent of the new administration draws nearer. The business men throughout the country seem to regard President-elect Wilson as a man of sound judgment, progressive, earnest and conscientious and void of any temperament that savors of ultra-radicalism. That this high opinion of the President-elect will be sustained by his future conduct while in office, is indeed our sincere desire. President-elect Wilson goes into office at one of the most critical periods in the history of our country, at least, so far as our people are concerned. With bated breath and anxious hearts will we watch every action of his. The proper and equitable adjustment of the Negro to all phases of American life is very necessary at this time. Will President Wilson prove the man of the hour by his advocacy of justice to all regardless as to race or color or will he, by official sanction, lend impetus and encouragement to the grim spectre of Negrophobia that stalks abroad throughout our land? Judging the man as we have studied him since his election to the presidency of the United States, we believe that he will take the former course. There is no doubt that the Bleases and Vardamans and others of their ilk will think that the time is now ripe for them to make frequent and profitable pilgrimages to the National Capitol. There is no doubt that many measures inimical to the interest of the Negro will be given prominence. President Wilson will be asked no doubt to give his support to these measures—But will he do it? We believe that he will not. We are looking forward to an intelligent and impartial administration of the affairs of our country at the hands of President Wilson. We trust that we shall not be disappointed. Anyhow, we are living in hope. Deaths Dear Editor: Allow me space to speak of Bro. H. E. Hagins, who departed this life on February 23rd. In obedience to the divine will of the Alwise Providence., Bro., Hagins was called from labor to reward. He was a steward of the A. M. E. Church at Egypt, Ga. He was also a circuit steward who moved with the spirit from one end to the other. He was a member of Doric Lodge of Masons and in 1910, he helped in establishing Life Giving Lodge No.326. He served in caring for the finance and it was penny to penny. He at all times served as an officer of the Life Giving Lodge He was without literary preparation. He was dutiful at all times. He was a firm counselor in the home, in the church, and in the lodge. He has left us and gone to a brighter world. His remains were interred at the St Johns cemetery February 24th, witnessed by a host of dear friends. The same will be entered under Masonic ceremonies some time in the near future. Sleep on, Bro.

Bowen's ad. You can own a home and escape the landlord. See how it is done.—Ad. Who departed this life on Feb. 24, 1912. Dear Alice one year ago this day you left me for your Father's home on high, there to dwell with angels in mansions in the sky. I miss you in so many ways; but then I hope to meet you beyond this veil of tears. I miss your words, I miss your care, I miss you almost everywhere It is hard to know that you are gone to never, never come any more, but wait for me, I will be there and, we will meet to part no more. Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep from which none ever wakes to weep. A precious one from us has gone. A voice we love is stilled. A place is vacant in our home, which never, never can be filled. Your devoted husband, M. C. Parker. F. B. B. Church F. B. B. Church The bright spring weather of Sunday was quite an inducement to church goers. All day the attendance was very large. The services in the morning were conducted by Rev. C. Walker. He read the lesson from Matthew 18. The text was from Matthew 18:4. The subject was "The Kingdom." The subject was very fully and plainly explained. "The choir sang "Beautiful Zion." The communion services were very impressive and largely attended. Many visiting ministers, deacons and members were present. At night Rev. D. Wright read for the lesson Psalm 101:1-8 His text was from Isa. 49:15. The subject was "Deliverance from trouble." The sermon was doubly interesting because it occurs so often in our lives. All present were witnesses. The choir sang "I know He cares." A very strong and forcible prayer was offered by Rev. Prince. Our courteous ushers are always willing to find you a seat. So come at any time. Mr. Nathan Roberts, representing the choir, and Miss Young, representing the Sunday school, presented Rev. Wright two mysterious packages from their respective bodies. In a pointed speech, and with a heart full of gratitude he gracefully accepted them.

Mutual Insurance Co., has smashed to smithereens all records under similar conditions that have been brought to our attention. But this achievement did not come to us accidentally nor neither by a mere chance of good luck, yet any board of officers like those of the Ga. Mutual could have done the same thing, were they possessed of the following qualifications: (1) Experience coming from personal contact with field work. (2) Honesty and popularity (3) Money and confidence. Experience the greatest of all qualifications enabled us to accurately trace up to the want of the people, and then depend on the never-failing system of "square dealing" to keep them. Honesty, our second qualification, we are told is the "best policy". (applause). Money, our third qualification, it is said, is the 'root of all evil', this may be true, because we grow so rapidly that we have in a short space of time almost covered the state with our branches.

She looked like a real old southern mammy, and when she appeared before Judge Marsh in the stapleton police court over on Staten Island as complainant on a charge of assault and battery against her liege lord and master, her speech did not belle her appearance. A bottle of gin had been the cause of all the trouble, she said, and added that her husband was drunk most of the time. After listening patiently to a long tale of intemperance, Judge Marsh remarked to the defendant: "If what your wife says is true, I should imagine you to be a rather bibulous person." "Bibulous!" snorted the old woman. "Bibulous!

MONK WAS GOOD INVESTMENT Ingenious Method of Irishman for Securing Winter's Coal—Tramps Couldn't Hit Him. An Italian organ grinder possessed a monkey which he "worked" through the summer months. When the cool days of the fall came his business fell, off and he discontinued his walks and his melodies. An Irishman of his acquaintance offered him ten cents a day for the privilege of keeping and feeding the little beast. The bargain was made for a month. Great curiosity filled the mind of the Italian, and at last, unable to restrain himself, he went ostensibly to see his pet, but really to find what possible use Pat could make of the monkey. The Irishman was frank. "It is loke this," he said, "I put up a pole in me back yard with the monk on the top. Tin or twelve thrains of cars loaded with coal go by every even." There's thrams on every car. Every wan takes a heave at the monk. Divil a man has hit him, but Ol have seventeen tons of coal."—Argonaut.

IN CONDENSED FORM Summary of Results of Thirteenth U. S. Census. Digested Information of Interest to People—Number, Acreage and Value of Farms—Regarded as Most Comprehensive Ever Issued. Washington.—A condensed summary of the results of the thirteenth census of the United States has just been issued by the bureau of the census, the summary (or abstract), according to a statement of Director E. Dana Durand, being the most comprehensive ever issued by the bureau of the census. It contains digested and condensed information as to the number and geographical distribution of the nearly ninety-two million inhabitants of the country, their race, nativity, nativity of parents, sex, age, marital condition, state of birth of natives and country of birth of foreign inhabitants, citizenship, school attendance, illiteracy, dwellings and families. It shows the number, acreage and value of farms; the number and value of live stock; the acreage, production and value of the various crops, and the production and value of dairy and other farm products. It contains statistics regarding the manufacturing, mining and quarrying industries, showing capital invested, quantity and cost of materials, wages and other expenses, quantity and value of products, number of employees and other important information. Statistics on all subjects are presented for every state and, where applicable, for every large city. Throughout the volume are maps and diagrams illustrating the tables. The abstract is a very different document from any ever published in connection with the preceding censuses, and Director Durand expresses the belief that it will prove the most useful census publication ever issued, not only to students and professional statisticians, but also and more particularly to the business man, the farmer and the public generally. In commenting upon some of the features of this volume, Director Durand, in a statement issued the other day, says: "Among the new features of the present abstract is the emphasis that has been laid upon the geographical divisions of the country. On account A. H. E. Dana Durand. of the large number of states, it is usually very difficult to grasp the broad geographical differences regarding population, agriculture and manufactures by means of comparisons among individual states and particularly so when they are arranged alphabetically and thus separated from those with which they are geographically related. For this reason the-states have been grouped into nine well recognized geographical divisions. Full statistics with necessary comments are presented for these divisions. Besides, in the tables of statistics by states the latter are grouped geographically, thus permitting easy comparison among neighboring states. "Again, in the population statistics in the abstract, details as to each subject are given for urban and rural communities separately. Fundamental differences in industrial and social life between cities and rural districts result in marked differences in the composition and characteristics of the population. In many cases it is impossible to understand the differences between states or sections of the country except through this distinction between urban and rural population. Very little use of this important distinction was made in the population statistics of previous censuses." The most important departure from previous methods of publication made at the thirteenth census is the inclusion with the abstract of a supplement giving details for the particular state in which the person receiving the volume resides. This new feature is likely to meet with marked approval from the general public. It seems that the abstract is being issued in some fifty different editions with supplements for the different states. This scheme combines the advantages of a condensed report of the most general results of the census with those of a detailed report for the counties, cities and other minor civil divisions. Fire of Enthusiasm "Do you know what it means to be fired, with enthusiasm?" asked the suffrage eyegallist. "Yes; my last three bosses all showed unmistakable enthusiasm in firing me," replied the stenographer. OIL OUTPUT SLUMPS. The United States supplied nearly two-tfilrds of the one million barrels of oil consumed daily during the past year, and produced 220,200,000 42-gallon barrels, or about 250,000 barrels less than in 1911. The output last year was valued at $150,000,000, an increase of $16,000,000 over that of the previous year. David T. Day, director of the Uunited States geological survey, in his annual report of the petroleum industry, says the year was filled with remarkable incidents. The eastern oil fields, as a rule, he says, declined in production, because it was impossible to keep up with the great output of 1911 without large additional discoveries of new pools in the older fields. Its decline, however, was offset by the increase in California. In all the fields, except California and the Gulf of Mexico, there was a steady drain on the accumulated stocks during the year, which declined from 81,789,390 to 69,000,000 barrels. The advent of internal combustion engines, says Mr. Day, promises an increase in the price of fuel oils. The general use of these engines abroad has pointed the way to a rapid increase in their use here, he says. Prices advanced so greatly during the year as to stimulate drilling, even in the old New York and Pennsylvania pools. In the Appalachian fields prices rose from $1.30 to $2.00 a barrel. One feature tending to strengthen the position of oil in the United States was the decrease of about 6,183,000 barrels in the production in Russia. Roumania increased its product slightly. INVESTIGATE LAND VALUES. The division of information of the bureau of immigration is investigating labor conditions and land values throughout the United States with a view to helping persons find small tracts of farm land. The purpose of the immigration officials is to stem the tide of American emigration to Canada and to hold the foreigners who come here, work and make money and go back to the old country to spend it. Plenty of large tracts of land are advertised, but the bureau finds it difficult to get information about five, ten and fifteen-acre tracts When asked if the department of commerce and labor had anything similar to an employers' agency the officials explained that they could not undertake to locate work and assign workmen, but if laborers apply for general information as to where railroad, farm and other work can be had they will be given the benefit of general information as to the labor market and where work is to be had. The bureau of immigration is trying to get Americans to buy lands in the United States instead of going to Canada, and to get emigrants to go west and south instead of crowding in the cities of the east. If the program of the bureau works out well Commisisoner O'Keefe thinks the cost of living will be lowered by bringing into good use much land that is now lying idle. MORE BOYS THAN GIRLS. Race statistics of the last census were discussed by E. Dana Durand, director of the census, in an address delivered before a meeting of the Anthropological society the other day at the New National museum. "During the decade from 1900 to 1910 the white population of the United States increased 22 per cent., while the colored increased only 11 per cent., and most of this difference was due to the immigration of the former in the absence of which the whites would have increased only about 14 per cent." Mr. Durand said. "The Indian," continued the speaker, "has increased about 12 per cent., the Chinese have decreased in numbers, and the Japanese have nearly trebled." "In practically every census taken the whites have shown a more rapid increase than the colored," said Mr. Durand. "There has been no great migration of the negroes from the south, and nine-tenths of their total number are found in that section. The natural rate of increase—that is, the excess of births over deaths among the, white population of the south—is much higher than that of the colored, and of the whites in the north. "Among all classes of the population the births of boys have exceeded that of the girls, but equality appears to be brought about by a higher death rate among the males." "O. U. Kid?" Representative Oscar Underwood, who has just turned fifty years and looks ten years younger, entered the grandfather class the other day. Mr. Underwood's son, who lives in Birmingham, Ala., telegraphed the house leader that he is the father of a bouncing girl. Mr. Underwood was advised also that one of his admirers whose last name is Kidd had named his latest arrival Oscar Underwood Kidd. "I wonder if they'll call him 'O. U. Kid?'"" Mr. Underwood remarked to his secretary. Spur of the Pack. "The influence and spur of the pack is very manifest," says Allan Hoben, professor of homilies in the University of Chicago, "and often gets the boy into trouble. But, like every other power, if it can be given into the hands of a competent leader, it may be made a power for good in moral development and in civic service." IN YELLOW SHADES Costumes of That Color Just Now Most Popular in Paris. Soft Materials Have the Widest Vogue in the Gay Capital—Pronounced Effects Put Forward by Leading Modistes. PARIS.—Velour de laine, that soft, silky woolen tissue that arrived in the autumn and was so popular till satina and silks usurped its place later, has now reappeared and will close the present season for winter costumes. The velour de laine and drape de laine are both immensely popular, the former thicker and softer than the latter, which is very like satin-faced cloth. Both are amenable to draping and both are becoming because of the soft surface. All colors look well in these materials, and those in Bordaux and yellows are adorable. The popularity of yellows is really astonishing. Every piece of stuff seems a shade different. All are seductive save the sulphur; and in satin, and worn by a black-halired woman, even this is not without virtue. Citron is a shade that will go into early spring, also suede. Such tones are chalk, putty and oyster have been modish a long time, but they may be continued through another season, since the fashion dealers appear to have exhausted the whole range of colors. Black was their refuge three years ago, but now with the black are colors, and without doubt the dyers are in despair. But they have never been found wanting and probably shades to be shown next month will differ only slightly from those we have been seeing. Pronounced Styles Favored. The latest styles show dresses with a plain tunic in front and a draped back, or vice versa. The draping is flat and does not look at all out of place in front. Just so it cuts the figure blas, or straight up and down, that is all that is necessary. I was told today that all the dressy afternoon costumes of satin or silk for spring would have the little train like that of the evening dress this winter. The idea is pretty and extremely graceful, but it is impractical in a frock if one thinks of wearing it on the street. Apropos of spring fabrics, crepe de chine, after a long absence, will return. The material is soft and clinging, qualities so suited to the modes of the moment that it is a wonder the couturiers have not called it into service before this. Taffetas will not be fashionable, although it does show wonderful effects in colors. But it does not in the least drape prettily, and even the most supple quality has a way of standing out from the figure. A brown yellow, that is beautiful in any material, is that of Oriental tobacco, a rich, brilliant dye that arrived during the winter. It is of course much lighter than Havana brown, yet has the same general tone. This is nothing more than a soft, deep gold, something like old-fashioned tan, yet with more yellow. The Oriental tobacco is superb in velvet, also in satin and in crepe de chine. It does not take well with other combinations of colors. I saw a dress yesterday of satin that shade, trimmed in little buttons of the same. At the neck, to cover a pointed fichu effect that was too decollette, a plain piece of white mousseline was put across. At the belt was a big rose with dark green foliage. Any other combination would have spoilt the yellow, I am sure. Black Coats Over Light Satin. Black Coats Over Light Satin. Since Christmas nothing has seemed handsomer than costumes of light satins, with a half-long coat of black plush or fur. The jackets in brocade, made Russian blouse, are handsome, and any afternoon between six and seven o'clock one sees an army of such costumes on the Rue de la Paix. Women have finished tea and before taking their autos they promenade up and down the famous street, either to look in the windows or to view the elegant crowd that is also promenading. Fashionably gowned women make a practice of circulating here at this hour. They simply walk up and down the length of the few blocks which constitute the most famous shopping quarter in the world. When one has made the "tour" three or four times, the hour has passed. Anyway, one has seen every one else in the parade and there is no use staying longer. I am told that the very simple effect of blouses and corsages will be modified and that embroidery will be used. Not much, but enough to make a change and have things look new. The Grecian effects will be repeated both in afternoon and evening gowns, which means that drapery will be used as much as ever. Where draping is not employed, tiny knife plaits will run straight up and down in the center of the back and front. Sometimes even with these plaits drapery will fall to at least one side. Corseted as the fashionable woman is, the designer may now loop goods on*her form to his heart's content, and this he surely will continue to do. The little toque and round hat suits well the Botticelli mode of dressing the hair. Never were effects so flat and never was less false hair used. The smaller the head the better. The only thing some women use is a roll to pose at the back of the head and on this to place their hair, the ends of which are turned in. At this place some kind of a barette is fastened to cover the spot where, a few atray hairs always show. The mass of hair is marcelled once a fortnight or so, and if there be not too many short hairs the effect will be neat. While extreme simplicity is followed in regard to the hair, this very essential is difficult to attain. It is like the very plain dresses that take a master hand to cut and finish. Care and patience are essential to the novice who tries to coif herself, but the hair can be trained like anything else, and after a few times it will begin to yield returns. All about the temples and forehead must be covered, and yet quite enough space left about the eyebrows to show their shape and the color of the skin round them. The fashionable woman covers her ears under the tress that is brought squarely across them. Setting Off the Low Forehead. Everything seems to incline to the low forehead, and for a woman who has not such, this is easily secured by bringing the hair over the forehead and fastening it there with an invisible pin. When the hair is caught back in the chignon, the front looks quite natural. Everything is possible in fashions of hair dressing, and perhaps in a few years the high foreheaded beauty may arrive. Such a fancy was followed a century ago, originated by a leader at court who was afflicted with a forehead that extended several inches above her nose. In order to flatter and please the dame, all the court beauties had their hair shaved over the forehead, and history says that people began to like the result so well that for a decade or so the high forehead was the thing. No one can oppose the artist who declares that a low forehead is a mark of beauty, but such a thing has its limitations, and a forehead must be broad and the hair grow a certain way in order to be dainty. Coiffeurs in Paris know that their clients wish to appear young and coquettish, hence ```markdown ``` the return to the very low forehead. The hair worn near the eyebrows has a way of mercifully concealing the ravages of time, also that brought over the temples and around the ears. So women of middle age and those passing beyond have fashion's dictates to thank for helping to keep them comparatively young and fresh. The Afternoon Dresa. The effective dress pictured is in Gobelin blue fine cloth. The skirt is plain at back, and has curved wrapped seams at front that lie over a plain piece of material at lower part; buttons form trimming. The bodice has a vest of piece lace, over which from just above bust to waist pieces of material bralded at edge form an over-vest. The long sleeves are wide above elbow, then are drawn in to fit tightly below elbow, where they are trimmed with black buttons; the collar of black satin forms a square at back, then is carried down in narrow ends to waist each side front. Walst-band of black satin, with one fringed end falling at left side. New Ideas In Sleeves. It is in the sleeves that radical changes may be expected this spring. Ever since the kimono sleeve began to lose caste the designers have attempted to introduce all sorts of new ideas into sleeves. But there is the satisfaction that it has brought into prominence sleeves of so many types that it is possible for every woman to select becoming ones. The low shoulder seam, so well received the earlier part of this winter, retains the popular feature of the kimono sleeve. The enlarged armhole is likewise an easy transition for the devotees of the kimono. On the newest gowns the armhole has shrunk to its normal proportions, and the novelty lies in the arrangement of the fulness of the sleeve. Fight as women may against fulness in the sleeves, fashion seems to favor it, and it is sure to come if the signs in the fashion world are read correctly. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Error, once having gained a foothold in our inward life, is difficult to be erased; and when a feeble resistance against its encroachment is exhibited, it continues to increase in stature. It manifests itself in various deeds and various forms of speech, deceptive in tendency and misleading as to the things which affect our being. There are, in every walk and every condition of human existence, numerous short-comings by which our careers are hampered; and these emerge from sources from whence they should be least expected. Deficient in those sterling principles which should influence actions, they establish dangerous precedences, thus weaving entanglements out of which it is not easy to escape. Truthful natures are often imposed upon, because, ever viewing the brighter side of individual conduct, they fail to exercise vigilance to protect themselves against chicanery. Many ardent hopes are blighted and useful undertakings brought to an inglorious end because honeyed tongues, backed by bold affrontery, mislead the unwary and abandon them to their fate, whenever their selfish designs are secured. When plans for personal gratification are enacted small notice of another's weal is taken; and every move on the chess board of human expectancy is devoted to selfish ends. There is much in our racial contact that requires to be considered; and although disappointments are parts of a common heritage, much may be averted by a timely stroke. Falsity to obligations often places at a disadvantage him who desires to wear the garb of manhood and push the wheels of progress. There should be, on the part of every man, a wholesome respect for justice, truth and honesty; but these are at times unwillingly prevented because the agencies with which they have to deal are fickle, unstable and untrue. Sad happenings result from the failure of man in relation to his brethren, and lessen energy by checking aspirations. Who falters not, is a hero; and all services performed in accordance with the requirements of duty enhance and increase his importance. Practical every day observance of sacred vows has a noble rating and establishes a confidence which proves to be a wall of defense. There would be fewer hardships if men would strictly adhere to the right and let their honor shine—Ethiopian Phalanx. Booker T. Washington wins and holds the people because he aids them, in ways of development, by extending gratuious service; and that which he has accomplished will live imperishable through the lapse of centuries when flowered rhetoric for a stipulated fee, extolling the achievements of by-gone days, shall have died and been forgotten. There are means of helping the race aside from wordy encouragement. Example is far greater than precept in human elevation; and he, who sets it, is a 'greater benefactor' to mankind than all the flood of honeyed eloquence with which the world is supplied. Indians are no longer supported by the United States government at Hampton institute, because of government opposition to red and black men mixing. Since Indians can mix with whites, it is possibly thought that they are too good to mix with blacks. Hampton will still be open to red men however. As a sequel to the long drawn out abduction case against Bishop Elias Cottrell of Holly Springs, Miss., Judge J. W. Palmer, presiding over the second division of the criminal court, gave the jury preemptory instructions to bring in a verdict of not guilty after having heard the evidence the state had to offer. The bishop will publish the full text of his vindication soon. It is getting late in the day to find a colored man or woman who is opposed to race enterprise, but as late as it is there are a number of our children and demands for places to work other than as servants for the dominant race is but noise to their cars. Let us hope that they will turn from their wickedness and live. The Fulton county commission has definitely decided to locate near Atlanta, Ga., a reformatory for colored boys. A tract of land is to be purchased comprising of 438 acres at $55 per acre, totaling $23,050. Frame buildings are to be erected to accommodate 200 boys whose work will render the institution self-supporting. When a man discovers that he has but a lone nickel in his pocket after boarding a down town car in the morning, it is a sign his wife is a frenzied financier. Probably a man never appreciates his wife so clearly as when he wants to use her as an excuse for not going to war. A sliding grip for a rake handle, to avoid blistering the hand that guides the tool, has been patented by a New Jersey man The negro Baptists of the country, two and one-half million, will hold semi-centennial services in connection with the September meeting of the National Baptist convention. Progress of the denomination during the last 50 years will be shown by exhibits, statistics, pictures and other material evidences. This was the decision reached by the executive committee of the National Baptist convention at a called meeting held at Tuskegee institute, Alabama. A commission, composed of one member from each state, will co-operate with the Baptist bodies of each state, under the direction of the president of the national convention, and collect the materials for the exposition. Details will be worked out by the commission, President C. E. Morris concurring. The project will be financed by private donations and public subscriptions. The executive committee pledged $1,000, including $200 pledged by Dr. Booker T. Washington, $100 by Dr. E. C. Morris, $50 by Dr. Jordan, and $25 by each of the other members of the committee. The members will be appointed by President Morris. In all probability the meeting of the convention will be held in Nashville, Tenn. The executive committee was unanimous in the opinion that the exposition should be held. By special invitation Doctor Washington remained with the committee throughout its sessions and offered important suggestions which were freely accepted. It was carefully estimated that it will require $2,500 to finance the exposition scheme. The meeting was attended by Doctor Morris, president, Little Rock, Ark.; Rev W. G. Parks, D. D., vice-president, Philadelphia; Rev T. O. Fuller, assistant secretary, Memphis, Tenn.; Rev A. J. Stokes, treasurer, Montgomery, Ala.; Rev J. P. Robinson, chairman home mission board, Little Rock, Ark.; Rev T. J. Scarey, chairman educational board, Memphis, Tenn.; Rev R. H. Boyd, secretary publishing and home mission boards, Nashville, Tenn.; Rev P. James Bryant, chairman Baptist Young People's board, Atlanta, Ga.; Rev L. G. Jordan, secretary foreign mission board, Philadelphia; Rev C H. Parrish, chairman foreign mission board, Louisville, Ky.; Prof J. D. Crenshaw, editor Union review, Nashville, Tenn.; Rev A. A. Cosey, member benefit board, Mound Bayou, Miss.; Prof R. B. Hudson, general recording secretary, Selma, Ala. Of the 23,000 inhabitants in Meridian, Miss, 10,000 are negroes. Fifty per cent of these 10,000, it is estimated, own their homes. There are among the negro business men one photographer, one fruit dealer, one firm of undertakers, one milliner, one blacksmith, two drug stores, two doctors, four dentists, three shoe-makers, two restaurants, six barber shops, four dressmakers, two real estate men, four contractors, two markets, four men running hack lines, ten tailors and twelve grocers. Mr. Thomas Galloway of Ware, Alabama, is an example of what a thrifty industrious negro farmer can do in the south. He owns 656 acres of land west of Ware, 80 acres six miles east of Ware. He is at the head of three turpentine farms with the home office at Ware, Alabama. He has seven renters and one share-cropper on his place and advances money to five of them. He states that he accumulated this amount in five years. Mr. Galloway, his wife and children all work together. L. Arthur Headen enjoys the distinction of being the only licensed negro aviator in the world. Headen is thirty-one years old and a native of Carthage, N. C. He became interested in aviation, and, after inventing a device which he claims will prevent a biplane turning turtle in the air, decided to learn to fly so as to demonstrate the utility of his device. He was refused admission to aviation schools in America and went to Mavre, France, where he finished in the school of the Francaise Aviation company and was awarded a license as an aviator for the French government. Headen says he has applied to enter several aviation contests since his return to America, but has received no encouragement from the contest managers, and will devote himself to independent exhibitions and long-distance flights. The negro Baptists of North Carolina support 28-secondary schools of that state. The total number enrolled in these schools is 3,346 pupils. "st year the state Baptists contributed $23,200. These schools have acquired property valued at $123,762. In the new year the so-called big negro should undertake to bring his examples up to his precept. He has learned to support race enterprises with his mouth. He has learned to work his lungs overtime in the effort to induce the world through high-sounding words that he believes in and is 'proud of his race. In 1913 let him shut off his mouth and get down to business. In other words, let him spend his money with his people, and the establishments now fighting for a mere existence will begin to bloom and blossom as the rose. BANISH WORRY AND BE HAPPY Evil Habit Shortens Life and Drives All the Sunshine Out of Possibly Happy Days. The worries of today are the jokes of tomorrow. Look over your past life. What are the incidents that you find funny now? Every one of them was a worry at the time it happened. You laugh as you look back at past worries. Well, why not laugh at the worries today and tomorrow as well? Worry doesn't get, you anything or anywhere. There's no use worrying about things that are past. Whatever has happened is right or it would not have happened. The whole great universe is run in harmony. Don't be conceited enough to suppose that anything you have done is out of harmony with the universe. If it was, the whole world would soon get out of killer. There's no use worrying, either, about what's going to happen. Nobody knows that. Remember, too, the worst never-happens. And why worry now? You either can help or can't help what you are worrying about. If you can help it, go ahead and do it and stop worrying. If you can't help it, what good does worrying do? "But," you say, "I just can't help worrying." How absurd? Of course you can. Try this plan. Sit down calmly and ask yourself what is the very worst result that can come from your present trouble. Look it in the face boldly. Square your shoulders and say to yourself: "Well, if that's all, I can face that. Lots of worse things have happened to millions of other people and they have survived. I guess I can." Most worries are over mere trifles. Probably George Washington's, wife used to worry when he got home late for dinner, but what difference does it make to either of them now? Get a Worry Book. Put down in it today everything that worries you. Look at it a week from today. How many of the things you are worrying about will happen? The longer you keep a worry book the shorter will grow the entries.—American Magazine. Land of Many Languages. One probable result of the scheme attributed to the Archduke Franz Ferdinand for the constitution of a Slav empire under the crown of the Hapsburgs would be the abolition of German as the official language of the Austrian army. In the arm" German, Boheman, Polish, Ruthenian, Hungarian, Slovene, Servian, Italian and Roumanian are spoken. In every regiment, of whatever nationality, the words of command are given in German. Apart from the words of command, however, a knowledge of German is not required from the rank and file. All the ordinary business of a regiment is done in the language of the men and it is the duty of the officers to acquire a working knowledge of this "regiment speech," as it is called. Wanted Change In Literary Diet. Child wit, as necessity, knows neither law nor national restriction. Indeed, children the world over are much alike in the naivette and unexpected humor of their remarks and replies. From rural England, for example, comes the quantly moving tale of the two small youngsters who longed for novelty even in matters of religion. It was Sunday afternoon and, secular literature being forbidden on that day, a kindly visitor offered 'to read aloud from the Bible. "It's very kind of you, Auntie May," the little gift replied, with polite hesitation, "but—would you mind reading something that isn't in Genesis? We're so tired of the Adams family and their works." Convicts Learn Languages. Warden Robert McKenty of the eastern Pennsylvania penitentiary has started a class in foreign languages among the convicts. Joseph Davidson, a highly educated man, is in charge, in which there are representatives of five nations—Greeks, Italians, Lithuanians, Poles and Germans. Davidson, formerly a real estate man, was sentenced to seven years for forgery. His class consists of 20 convicts, every one of whom has at least seven years to serve. The central branch of the Y. M. C. A. has supplied him with translations of the languages he has to teach, and will send a competent instructor to him each week. No Need to Worry The lady of the house had a worried look on her face as she came down to breakfast. "Bridget," she said to the maid, "Mr. Bodkin hasn't been home all night. I am somewhat alarmed—I do hope that nothing is wrong." "Why, bless your heart, th' mister's all right!" reassured the maid. "He's down on th' front dure mat, right now, mum. He says he's been there a long time, but he can't remember whether he's goin' out or comin' in. Whin he's made up his moul I'll let ye know."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Couldn't Monkey With Him. A witness from the country had been sworn and had taken the witness stand, and the prosecuting attorney, settling down for the examination, asked as a starter: "What is your name, sir?" The old man instantly became angry. Leaning far forward he exclaimed: "Now, see here, you can't run any of this monkey business in on me. I heard you tell the clerk to call my name, and so I know you know it all right, blame ye, anyhow." Pretty Tale of Missing Race and Their Queen Whom They Called Pale-Faced Lightning. In Arizona not far from its capital stands Mount Superstition, famous among the Indians as the scene of battle between a tribe of Pueblo dwarfs and the Zunis and the Apaches. Several centuries ago there came into the vicinity of this mountain a tribe of little people. Whence they came or who they were no one knew. But there they settled, tended their flocks and tiled the soil. They were a quiet and peaceful tribe. Thus they lived for some years, when there appeared one day a band of Zunis at their very doors. They were a hostile tribe and came thither to make war upon the Pueblo on account of a pale faced woman who now ruled the tribe of Pueblo dwarfs. The latter called her the Pale Faced Lightning and regarded her as their queen. But the Zunis claimed her as their own. Up on top of the mountain assembled all the Pueblo dwarfs, and down below in the valley were gathered the Zunis. Slowly and cautiously the enemy were advancing. Now they were almost within reach of the Pueblos when Pale Faced Lightning, who was standing in full view of the advancing warriors, seized an earthen jar, and cast it into a lake of water nearby. In an instant a hissing noise was heard, flames of fire burst forth, spreading in all directions, and, striking the terrified Zunls, killed many of them. Thus were the Zunls defeated and never more did they molest the peaceful dwarfs. Another time the fierce Apaches were defeated likewise by the little dwarfs under the guidance of Pale Faced Lightning. One day the Pueblo dwarfs disappeared from the vicinity of Mount Superstition as mysteriously as they had come. No one knew whither they went. But tradition tells that Pale Faced Lightning still haunts the caves of Mount Superstition—Kansas City Star. DANGEROUS PET. John Blake, a little Pennsylvania boy, has been deprived of a pet snake with which he had been sharing his supper for weeks before his parents made the discovery. He would ask permission to eat his supper of bread and milk in the woods, and finally growing curious, his mother followed to find a cause. To her horror, after seating himself on a stump and whistling softly a huge-rattler joined him. The mother stood paralyzed while the boy held the bowl at a convenient angle for the snake to devour the contents, after which it coiled for a nap, resting its head on the boy's knee. Taking No Chances. Ollie James, senator-elect from Kentucky, weighs somewhere near 400 pounds and hates to ride in an upper berth. Once, travelling back to his home from the capital, he could not get a lower berth for love or money. The man who had bought the lower berth beneath the bunk on which Ollie was to sleep weighed about 101 pounds and was timid looking. When the porter made up the sleeping-car for the night James examined the upper very carefully and shook it violently. "I am scared of these uppers," he confided to the little man. "The last time I slept in one it tumbled down." The hundred-and-one-pounder did not say a word at that moment. But half an hour later, when James returned from the smoking compartment, the small man was fast asleep in the upper berth. A note, plinned on the curtains, read: "Take the lower. I hate to sleep in them." To Restore Quarter Lost In 1865. Some time ago J. B. Milleysack of Lancaster, Pa., received in change a silver quarter, coloned in V. I. V., on the back of which was engraved: "J. H. Patterson, Co. I, 57 Ill, V. I." Through the ald of the pension department he learned that J. H. Patterson had been a member of Company I and that he resided at Lamar, Johnson county, Ark. Mr. Milleysack at once addressed a letter to the veteran and has just received a reply to the effect that he had lost the quarter in Illinois in 1865 after carrying it through the war and would greatly appreciate recovering it. The veteran's statement was backed up by one from the postmaster at Lamar. Mr. Milleysack will send the coin back to its aged owner. Told Him How to Write J. Henry Harper, author of "The House of Harper," happened to meet Henry James one evening at dinner in London. Noticing that he looked much annoyed, he sat down beside him as soon as the woman rose, to inquire whether he were not feeling well. "Yes," replied James, "but I have had a very unsatisfactory time. The woman on my left at the table criticised my last novel, which she had just read, probably rushing through it during the day, as she had been told that I was to sit next her at dinner. She found fault with me for construction of the plot, and then proceeded to enlighten me as to how it should have been written. All of which was very irregular and unpleasant, so behold me hors de combat!" SPORTS BOWLING The Brunswick-Balke-Collender bowing team of, Chicago was defeated by the Rockford Elks two games in three, and by a total of 2,650 to 2,625. SKATING In the international skating races, the Russian, Ippalitow, won the 5,000 meters event in 8:43 4-10. Matheslen, the Norwegian champion, won the 1,500 meters in 2:20 1-10. The "Big" Four" of American polo circles will defend the International Cup this year. They are Lawrence and J. M. Waterbury, Harry Payne Whitney and Devercaux Milburn. The British polo team claims to have the next International Cup sweed up, as they have cornered the pony market, and it is no longer possible for even Whitney to pay $60,000 for the horse flesh that will win. BILLIARDS Charles Otis, playing for Brooklyn, won his game in the National Billiard league's three-cushion tournament from Pierre Maupome, representing St. Louis, 50 to 45. In the match game for the championship of billiards at 18-2 balk line between Willie Hoppe, title holder, and George Sutton of Chicago, the challenger, Hoppe won by a score of 500 to 301. BASEBALL Ray Schalk of the Sox is said to be the only fast-running catcher in either league. Walvers have been asked on Fred Hunter, for whom Indianapolis paid Pittsburgh $3,500 a year ago. Bunny Tommers, Yale's great pitcher on the 1910 team, has been engaged to coach the Eli pitchers this season. Owner Farrell of the Yankees has purchased a block of stock in the Jersey City team of the International league. The veteran Billy Hamilton has become part owner and team manager of the Haverill club of the New England league. Many members of Connie Mack's team considered Jacinto Calvo, the Cuban outfieldier signed by Clark Griffith, a great hitter. It's a fine old Irish catching staff for the Cubs this year: Roger the man from Tralee, and Jimmy Archer, who was born in Dublin town. The New York Giants have been scheduled, to play two exhibition games with the Washington team in Washington, April 7 and 8. The Worcester club of the New England league, has signed Catcher Muldoon of Hartford, Conn., and Pitcher Marland of Danielson, Conn. Seven Johnsons have invaded the American league ranks. The Sox have four members of this family, while St. Louis, Cleveland and Washington each have one. The International league and the American association have indulged in a trade of umpires. Jimmy Murray of the International goes to the American association in exchange for William Bierhalter. Chicago fans will charter a special train to take them over to Cincinnati for the opening game in Redland. This is intended as a smack at one Charles Murf, who canned Chance, released Tinker and elevated Evers. George Yantz has found himself considerably whirled about in the maelstrom of baseball. He was drafted by the Cards from Birmingham, turned over to Chicago, reported as being sold to Sacramento, and then shot to New Orleans. PUGILISM An attempt is being made to stop boxing in Tennessee. The bill to legalize boxing in Washington was defeated by the state senate. Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, featherweight champion, outpointed Young Driscoll of Brooklyn in a ten-round bout. Joe Mandot of New Orleans was awarded a decision over Mickey Sheridan of Chicago in an eight-round bout at Memphis. Billy Walters climbed a notch nearer to the welterweight title by beating Morrie Bloom at Madison in a fast ten-round contest. Terrific body blows scored a victory for Jack Dillon of Indianapolis over Frankie Logan in a hard six-round bout at Philadelphia. Jimmy Clabby of Hammond was awarded the decision over Howard Baker of Boulder, Colo., at the end of a ten-round bout at Denver. Young Erne shaded Tommy Howell at Philadelphia. Erne was the stronger, and in the third round dropped Howell with a hard right on the jaw. J Former Quarterback of University of Wisconsin Has Been Signed to Coach the Louisville Manual Training School. HORSE RACING Montreal is said to desire dates in the Grand Circuit, the feature races of the United States harness horsemen. Baldy McGregor, next to Colorado E., the world's fastest three-year-old trotting colt, was sold to W. Schlesinger, an Austrian, for shipment abroad. AQUATIC The Royal English Henley regatta will be rowed on the Thames river July 2, 3, 4 and 5. Tom Sullivan, the Australian sculler and ex-champion oarsman, who has been living in England, may make his home in Canada. A new ruling put in force at the Naval Academy competition of the varsity crew will be restricted, and all its races limited to one mile 550 yards, which is the Henley distance. The undergraduate body of the University of Pennsylvania is offering strenuous objections to the continuance of Ellis Ward as coach of the rowing team. This year the English universities, of Oxford and Cambridge will meet in the sports and eight-oared varsity race on March 14 and 15. Easter falling the earliest it can between 1901 and 1925. Penn's rowing committee definitely announces that Ellis Ward will not be retained as rowing coach after the expiration of his contract on August 31. Ward this season will be in the fortunate position of a man who is not wanted by the student body. MISCELLANEOUS The Washington, D. C., new Central High school will include an athletic field. The Ontario Curling association is made up of 105 affiliated clubs, having a membership of 5,000. The United league is the title given the newly-organized soccer circuit in the Philadelphia district. The new stadium to be built at Berlin for the coming Olympic games will cost more than $800,000. Colorado college was recently given $100,000 by a wealthy eastern woman with which to build a gymnasium. William H. Page is the new head of the New York Athletic club, the leading organization of its kind in the country. The Cornell faculty committee on student affairs has refused to give Syracuse university a place on the Cornell athletic calendar. Charles F. Brickley will not participate in spring athletics at Harvard. He strained a tendon in indoor practice at Cambridge and will be unable to work on track. J. Thomas Keady, athletic coach at Lehigh university, will become a baseball magnate shortly. He has secured an option on the Fall River team of the Fall River league. "Tad" Jones, one of Phillips-Exeter's famous stars, but best remembered as the famous Yale quarter and catcher, will coach Exeter next year. He is in business in Exeter now. Yale almost put one over that crack Princeton hockey team. It required a five-minute extra period and the work of Hobey Baker to win a 7 to 5 victory for the Tiger. Among college fives disqualified by the A. A. U. for playing non-registered teams are the Quints of the Brooklyn Polytechnic institute, St. John's of Baltimore and Fordham. The defeat of Columbia in basket ball by Princeton was the first defeat sustained by a Columbia five in five years. They had the game won through the first half, too. James E. Sullivan, formerly president of the Amatuer Athletic union, upholds the hammer throw. To do away with that event would be a decided stop backward, he believes. The announcement that Andy Simm, former Penn football coach, has filed application for the position as gridiron Instructor at Ohio State was well received by the students of that college.
