THE VOLUMN IX OUR LINCOLN SOLUTION OF THE R ight to Graduate this Year—School U Shelton French and other Good Sedalia Morning Capitol sai If the solution of the race problem lies in the education of the negro, Selilla is nearing the end. Aside from the excellent finishing work of George L. Smith college, the race in this city has a public high school to be proud of. All the grades, from the primary to the second year high school course, are taught in this school, and it is the claim of Superintendent G. V. Buchanan that the pupils of Lincoln school in every grade compare well in their examinations with the pupils of the several white schools. The excellent results obtained in Lincoln school are largely due to Prof. Shelton R. French, who, as an educator and a man, stands among the foremost of his race. Professor French a graduate of the Parsons, Kas., high school and of Hobson institute, and before coming to Sedalia taught at Independence. When Professor French came to Selalia six years ago, it was no uncommon thing for the school to be in a turult, the pupils reporting to their parents any attempts to discipline them, and the parents not infrequently dropping in "to lick the teacher." But that had of the "good old days" has been abandoned. Parents and pupils are in full accord with the principal and the teachers. Discipline is maintained and obedience exacted—and it is given duffily, with the result that the work is facilitated and made a pleasure. The study rooms are commodious, well lighted and ventilated, and every one of the eight rooms in the Lincoln school building is freshened with flowers, cared for by the janitor and the teachers and pupils. More than 250 potted plants are distributed through the study rooms and other little evidences of culture are everywhere visible. In the principal's room, where the pupus of the eighth grade recite and the two high school classes study, there is an upright piano, a library, pictures, etc., and in the principal's private office are maps arranged in a . . . globes and the paraphrenalia of the school work. the seventh grade room, in care of Mrs. Mattie L. Teeters, who is now completing her eighth year in Lincoln school, is connected with the principal's room by a roll partition, and when occasion requires the two rooms are thwn into one. Yesterday when a capital man visited the school these two rooms were converted into an auditorium and the pupils rehearsed several songs in preparation for the graduation day exercises. Glenn Woods, musical director of the public schools, was present and directed the singing. Mrs. Teeters playing the accompaniment on the piano. The singing of the advance pupils of Lincoln school will compare favorably with that of any other school in the city, excelling most of them. One little fellow, Master Thomas Umbles, has an exceptionally fine baritone voice and there are some splendid tenors and a deep bass in the school, all well trained and developed. The sixth grade is in charge of Miss Flora E. Wright, who has been there six years. She is a graduate of Lincoln institute, Jefferson City, and is a splendid teacher. W. H. Huston, a graduate of George R. Smith college and a young man of more than ordinary attainments, is completing his first year in charge SEDALIA MISSOURI. AFRIL 18 N SCHOOL RAGE PROBLEM. Under the principalship of Prof Good Teachers—What the d said about the teachers. of the fifth grade. He has given gen- eral satisfaction. C. W. White, a Sedalian, a graduate of the Lincoln school, is in charge of the fourth grade, which he has successfully taught for five years. Miss Minniolia Jackson, a graduate of George R. Smith college, is the teacher of the third grade pupils, and her work is approved by superintendent, principal and parents, the children making her a favorite. Miss Leonora Dillion in charge of the second grade, is completing her fourth year. She was graduated from George R. Smith college and is a clever instructor, respected by her superiors and loved by her pupils. Miss Mildred Walker has charge of the primary room, the most trying position in the school. She has been there for ten years, however, and this alone tells that she is a good teacher. Some credit for the cleanly appearance of the rooms, the halls and the grounds surrounding the school is due to John W. Holbert, the janitor who has held the position for twelve years. His labor is not unappreciated. There are 350 pupils in the school and there will be eight members of the graduating class in June, namely: Katie Bell Guy, Ralph Murray, Finis Washington, Julia Haydon, Alice Drake, Maggie Thomas, Sedalia Drake and Trullie Lenox. HRESIDENT NAMES DF. CRUM AGAIN. Now Collector of Port inCharleston, S. C. Washington, April 18.—Dr. W. D. Crum, colored, is now collector of the port of Charleston, Secretary Shaw having approved his bond for $50,000 today. He is bonded by a surety company. When congress re-assembles next winter, Crum's nomination will have to be again submitted to the Senate. His friends may delay action indefinitely, and thus continue him in office at the pleasure of the president. Prof. Richardson Dissapprove of the Tuskegee Methods. Washington, April 18.—In a speech last night in a local colored church, George H. Richardson disapproved of the methods of educating the Negroes adopted in Booker T. Washington's school at Tuskegee, Ala. In the course of his remarks, he said: "We cannot compete with the white race if we go about it in the wrong way. If we turn our time and talent to tilling the fields and the making of horseshoes and pine boxes, we will be doing that a thousand years to come. Our greatest trouble is that we fiddle while Rome burns." Referring to a certain well known industrial school in the South, Richard son said: "According to the published statistics, out of a total of 1,243 graduates twelve became farmers, two mechanics and one a carpenter. All the rest followed some line of work not described or taught in any branch of --- --- DONT LIKE BOOKER. the school course." FOR MANUAL TRAiNING. The Alumni of the George R Smith College organized. The alumni of George R. Smith college met in the college chapel Thursday afternoon and effected the following organization: President, W. H. Huston, '99; vice president, B. H. Ball, A. B., '03; secretary; Miss Sarah Brown, '00, treasurer, Miss Sarah Brown, '97; J. F. Williams, '03; A. W. Rhods, '03; Miss Violetta Jackson, '01, executive committee. Tee alumni also pledged themselves to aid in every possible way the establishment of a manual training department. ENDORED Roosevelt. President Roosevelt Invincible to be Formed to Campaign for His Re-election. New York, April. 18.—President Roosevelt's attitude toward the negro was indorsed at a rousing mass meeting of colored people held in the Bethel Methodist Episcopal church in this city, at which Bishop W. B. Derrick of the First Methodist Episcopal district made a stirring appeal to his people to turn their eyes to "the door of hope opened by the president for the black race." The mention of the name of the president by the speaker drew forth tremendous applause from both men and women. The bishop indulged in a biffer denunciation of Senator Tillman of South Carolina. The meeting constituted the first step toward the formation all over the United States or the "Roosevelt Invincibles," which organization will favor the renomination of President Roosevelt. WILLIAM PI. KENS, WON THE YALE UNIVERSITY ORITORICAL PRIZE New Haven, Conn., April 18.—Wednesday, William Pickens, colored, member of the junior class in Yale University, tonight won the historic Henry James Ten Eyck prize. His subject and conclusion was that a Negro could not govern Hayti. Outside intervention and restraining influence, he declared, were imperative. This is the first time in Yale's history that a conspicuous prize has been won by a colored student, if indeed, any prize has been so awarded. Pickens is the son of Jacob Pickens, of Little Rock, Ark. He is 22 years old, and was graduated from Taledega College, Ala., before entering Yale. He is working his way through college. Pickens and his stirring speech, delivered with remarkable rhetorical finish was applauded by 300 auditors with enthusiasm. The judges were practically unanimous in their decision, and were out only a few minutes in deciding the winner. IRONDREW IRONDREW THE IDEA DRINK.

From the way some of our colored men has been talking about each other this week to a certain alderman, in regards to the appointment of a Negro policeman is out of all reason. This alderman said that it would be hard to find one clean and good Negro in all this big town to appoint, if one would listen to what colored men has come to him and said about every Negro who has applied for this job He told him everything he knew, heard off and a lot of stuff he never heard off, in fact he talked about everybody he new. The Alderman said "it is a pretty tough thing to set and hear colored people go around and talk about one and other in such shape on account of a little police job. Did you ever stop to think that these aldermen has no confidence in such people and brand them prejudice liars? These men don't care to know all of pass troubles of these applicants all they want is the best man, who ill give the city the best service. of which everycolored man ought to be interested in. Stop telling the white man such lies or every thing you know on the Negro to keep him out of a little monthly salary or honor, because he knows enough now and too much for the Negroes good. Politeness does not consist in bowing and seraping and doffing of hats, although some very polite people do these things, says the Lexington News, bat we have observed much real rudeness from those who were adopted in the art mentioned. True politeness consists in consideration for the comfort and welfare of those whom we come in contact. A man is more trulp polite who quietly gives up his seat to a strange woman with as little appearance as possible of having done so than he who offers it with bows and flourishes that calls attention to his act. This is only an illustration: but unostentatious octs performed for the accommodation of associates mark the reallp polite person. Of course, gentle and elegant manners add a charm to all, but these are not always marks of politedesess they may be acquired but true politenes springs from a kindly heart. We so much ceremony and ostentation as to be real rudeness and we have observed times when refraining from offers of help was true politeness.

The advertising of the futu Advertisements are read more now than the readable. The advertisements of many store intensely entertaining as any other column in the papers. Advertisements are read more now than ten years ago, because they are more readable. The advertisements of many stores contain as fine writing and is intensely entertaining as any other column in the papers. Advertising is becoming more and more honest every day. It pays better every day. When people really understand that advertising is a necessary and legitimate part of every business, that it is merely a store bulletin, it will pay still better. It is facts that people want. I have heard a merchant say: "Oh, it don't pay to advertise, because people don't believe the ads. Mr. So-and-So always lies in his ads and people measure us by his standard." He was wrong, of course. People soon find out the truth-telling place, and trade gravitates that way with absolute certainty. Tell something—tell it true, and in the best papers—and it will pay every time.

In detecting a false gen from a genuine, the X-ray, says an article on X-ray photography, in Leslie's Monthly, can be relied on with absolute certainty. Diamonds, as is well known, are pure carbon; and carbon, which is opaque to ordinary light, is transparent to the Roentgen light, while glass, which is transparent to ordinary light, is opaque to the Roentgen ray. On an X-ray photograph of a real diamond nothing will show but the shadow of the gold setting. An interesting experiment was made recently in watching with the aid of an X-ray machine and a fluoroscope, motions carried on inside of an opaque body. A goose was fed with food mixed with subnitrate of bismuth salt, which absorbs the X-ray. The passage of the food down the long neck of the goose could be plainly traced by the moving shadow cast on the fluoroscope screen. He Never Talks. Gen. Kitchener recently declined to be interviewed by a soldier who has since his return from South Africa turned journalist. "Always pleased to see and do anything for anyone who has served under me, but you know I never—" Then he smiled and shook his head. A woman has written 4,070 words on one side of a postal cord. No word is of less than three letters, and a microscope was used to complete the task. Rural Mail by Boat. A boat instead of a wagon is used by the rural free delivery mail carrier at New Suffolk, L.

FAMOUS "The average life of the nickel cigar is five years," said a prominent tobacco man to a writer for the New Orleans Times-Democrat, "and it is curious to note the differences which have enabled cigar men to arrive at this general average of the five-cent cigar's life. Many cigars of this class run through a long series of years. There are some brands now that have been running for more than a quarter of a century under the same name, and they are really the same cigars, made in the same way, having the same flavor and all that sort of thing. In this connection I have been impressed by the remark which we often hear about certain brands of cigars changing in quality. I heard a man say the other day that he had been smoking a certain brand of cigars for two years or longer, but that the cigar was getting so bad that he had concluded to quit buying it at all. 'It is nothing like the same cigar,' he said; 'the taste has changed, and it tastes like a mixture of cabbage leaves.' Now he was altogether wrong about that. I know the cigar, know how it is made and all about it, and I know that no sort of change has been made in the process of manufacture. The trouble is that man's taste changes. He may get up feeling badly, his stomach may be in bad shape, and of course the cigar will not taste as it did when his system was in better condition. The cigar is blamed, and he simply dashes the thing into the street, and quits buying it. Instances of this sort are very common. Mind you I do not mean to say that some of the brands do not change. There are tricks in the cigar business, just as there are tricks in other trades. But in nine cases out of ten the trouble is with the smoker. But recurring to the age of cigars, the average to which I have referred has been settled upon by tobacco men and is accepted throughout the country. It is reached by taking the two extremes, the good and the bad five cent cigar, and nigging back to the middle. Some five cent cigars close with the first lot made. They are failures, having nothing in them to recommend them to the public. The material out of which they are made would not make decent 'three-fors,' the kind that are sold to the negroes on the river. The higher grades of five cent cigars are made as carefully, and with as much skill as the cigars that are sold at a higher price, and I do not mind saying that many of them are really far superior in material, flavor and method of manufacture. So many of them, however, are of the cheap kind that the average is lowered to five years, while the average life of the higher priced cigars will run to a much higher figure." TWO MOONS OF SALT. Some Interesting Statements Concerning Amount of Salt in the Sea. Roughly speaking, says the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, if you take the salt out of the sea water, you deprive it of a thirtieth of its weight. On that basis one-thirtieth of the entire weight of all the sea water in the world is salt, and, as salt and water bulk about the same, we may estimate, also, that, by bulk, one-thirtieth of the huge mass of the ocean is pure salt. What does this bring us to? ENT CIGAR. iler Brands Said to Years. LAXAKOLA FOR WOMEN.

"My baby is 4 months old and is teething. He was sick and I tried a good many things, but nothing seemed to relieve him. I had a doctor, who said it was inflammation of the bowels, and that I would never pull him through perseverance. It was so awful and so restlessing. I jumped giving him medicine, she could keep nothing what it was to close my eyes day or night. I gave him a few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him. I gave it to him a few times, and it worked like a charm, and he no longer gets pretty fair all night. He is a great deal better now.

HEAD NOISES CEASE IMMEDIATELY. F. A. WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: Gentlemen: — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of me being used at your discretion. About five years ago, my right ear began to sing, and this kept on worsening, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. My treatment for cataract, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of physicians, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help, even if not temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be better. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a new York paper, and ordered your treatment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and today, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain. Very truly yours. F. A. WERMAN, 730 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation. Examination and advice free.
