Notes and News Concerning Our People--Weekly Record of Social Events, Deaths, Marriages and Births--Written Especially for St. Louis Palladium. Don't forget to attend the Thanksgiving Baseball Game. Nicely-furnished room, 2201 Morgan, upstairs. Call on MRS. HUGGINS. At last we have a chiropodist in our city, in the person of Sol Heland,Twenty-third and Market streets. Sugar must be high, as the Eagle man's breeches have not been called down. Andy McGrew and Jack J. Tatum are the last two that have secured a position with the firm of Street & Walker. The Old Black Man says the Eagle is clean; that is why he charges $4.41 for two-thirds of a column of reading matter. Mrs. Fannie Lee is spending several weeks in Tipton. She wries for The Palladium. She says she can not do without it. Mr. O'Dell and wife have moved into their own home. Mr. O'Dell has owned this house, 2710 Lawton avenue, for several years. Mrs. Lucy Bolton, of Jefferson City, is visiting her brother, sister and sister-in-law, at 4264 Sacramento avenue. She will remain until Thanksgiving. Mrs. Maggie McIntyre's little son, Condy Casey, died last week, after a painful illness of two weeks. Mrs. McIntyre's address is 4038 Evans avenue. Mr. Mozee, of 2204 Scott avenue, is one of this city's coming young men. His freedom in expressing himself convinces his hearers that his is a well-cultivated mind. Get your ad in The Palladium for the next two months. All the church people, the saloon people and the public in general WILL READ THE PALLADIUM. We see that the Hamilton club and the St. Louis club intend to consolidate. Is that just? What is the matter with the Good Government club, and the 12,-two Negro votes? Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Richardson, who attended the play at the Odeon last Monday night, left and attended the reception at 1721 Texas avenue. They had a splendid time. What a pity that our good congressman, Mr. Bartholdt, was not in congress at the time of Aaron Burr. We see that he has espoused the cause of Andy McGrew and his relatives. Mr. Louis Huggins, of 2132 Franklin, is at present visiting his wife's home in Sparta. Ill. He will return home soon, and again visit his mother-in-dawon thanksgiving day. His little daughter is attending school in Sparta. Mr. John Favall, of 2343 Wash street, is in charge of a gang of men laying brick pavements. He has been employed for a number of years by the same firm, and they have implicit confidence in him. He has about twenty in his charge. At the Odeon, last Monday, there was a large audience to witness the play. Our best people were out, but somehow or other we did not see the Old Black Man. Well, you might have seen who was in the boxes at the Odeon. We wish to know the whereabouts of Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, of St. Joseph; Prof. J. W. Baldwin, of Kansas City, and Rev. L. F. Payne, of Glasgow. The maager of The Palladium wishes to know the whereabouts of these gentlemen. They have something that belongs to The Palladium. SNOOKS. Mr. Edward O'Neal, of 2837 Manchester avenue, has been in the carpenter and building business for almost thirty-four years. Mr. O'Neal is undoubtedly an expert in his line. He says, however, that he finds it very difficult to secure apprentices in his trade. He says that the churches, when they need repairing, usually employ white carpenters. The money of the Negro men and women is paid in at the church's door, and the least that could be done in returning the good is to give employment to its own kind. FIHST BAPTIST CHURCH. Mrs. Pauline Jones, of Bunker Hill, Ill., was in the city last Sunday, a guest of Mrs. Dickson, 2645 Lucas avenue. The Evening Star club will give a grand dramatic concert at the First Baptist church, in the near future, for the benefit of said church. Mrs. Etta Brachen, of 1732 Iowa avenue, returned from Chicago, Ill., last Saturday, where she has been on a visit with friends for two weeks. The presidents of the different clubs, namely: Pleasant Workers, Carnation, Ruth and Gentleman, are studying and planning day and night, as to what is the best thing to do to raise money for the church. Yes, they all have agreed to have a fair, which will begin December 20 and end December 31, 1903. Reverends E. C. Cole preached at 11 a. m. and J. W. Muse at 7:30 p. m., at the First Baptist church, last Sunday. Each sermon was full of interest. The doors of said church are always open to the public,, hence the polite ushers will see that any and all visitors have seats. The St. Louis Colored Union, a Christian organization, which was organized some months ago, for the purpose of building up the young people, spiritually, religiously, morally and socially, will meet at Mount Calvary Baptist church the third Sunday in December, at 3 p. m. Everbody is invited. Postmaster-General Payne Makes Permanent the Suspension of Misses Dreyer and Knott and Messrs. Dreyer and Kober, Whom Baumhoff Disciplined For Entering Into Conspiracy Against Him. "Your Sins Will Find You Out." The Palladium called these four names last February, and you now see the result. Our good congressman said just before he left for congress, that he would see that the above ladies should be restored to their former positions in the post office. We ask what next step will our good congressman take? ROOSTER Andy McGrew, W. W. Howard, J. D. Miller, J. J. Tatum Fickler is Gone—The Big Four Which is Which, and Who Goes Next. ANDY McGREW GETS HIS. Big Gun In the Baumhoff Charges Comes to Grief. Andy, the irrepressible producer of trouble in all circles where he may by chance be cast, has at last got his, by way of permanent dismissal from the classified service. It is only fitting that McGrew should be forever eliminated from public offices. He has been for the past twenty years a continual source of disturbance and bickering. The man seems to be utterly devoid of conscience, and has no regard for the truth in any form. He is a habitual prevaricator, who has carried the tale of slander to more than one man's decor. It is said of Congressman Richard Bartholdt that he became so elated over McGrew's tale of woe in the post office investigation that he took oath to investigate the remainder of his life to the cause of securing the rights of Andy McGrew and his relatives. If this is so, and the writer knows that it is so, it signifies that the four-fluishing member from the Tenth district has taken another step towards the necropolis that awaits him in 1904. It is a pity indeed that the public is compelled to stand for such a man as its representative, who listened to and is influenced by such men as Andy McGrew and W. W. Howard. Even George Dyer, of the filthy Censor, draws the line on McGrew in his quest for spoils. Men who seek to defame the character of their fellowmen by filthy and nefarious methods must at an early period come to grief. That some one has recently learned this lesson no one will doubt. It's a lucky liar who meets no end. The Palladium has completed its task. Jack Tatum. Mr. Tatum, employed in the railway mail service, is out in a statement, last Sunday, explaining that his connection in the attack against the postmaster was out of public motives. We did not know that this man Tatum had been called upon to give out a public or private statement, but it's a safe proposition that we don't miss our guess very far if at some future time this—public motive—young man is not called upon to give out a statement, as is a statement. There are a few passages in this young man's life that will hardly justify the belief that he is the proper person to assume the—public motive—act. We guess Jack Tatum won't be su- We guess Jack Tatum won't be superintendent of mails yet awhile. We will consider—public motives—in our next. [The above appeared in The Palladium February 7, 1963.] John Tatum's Head Goes Off, Promptly Following Andrew McGrew's—Miss Mildred Doll Also Fired, But She Was Not In the Service. No Longer In the Government Service. Annie Dreyer, Samuel Kober, Andrew McGrew, Joseph Dreyer, Birdie Knott, John J. Tatum. Six dismissals from the government service have resulted from the conspiracy hatched last spring to prevent the reappointment of Postmaster F. W. Baumhoff. The civil service commission has ordered that Annie Dreyer, Joseph Dreyer, Samuel Kober, Bifdie Knott, Andrew McGfew and Joseph Tatum be dropped permanently from the payrolls of the government because of an alleged conspiracy against the postmaster. The above appeared in The Palladium, February 7, 1903. So here they are: STERRETT FOR CONGRESS. STERRETT FOR CONGRESS. The Palladium's Choice for a Successor to Bartholdt. The Palladium annonuces Hon. Frank M. Sterrett for congress to represent the Tenth district, to succeed the present misfit. Mr. Bartholdt once thought so much of Mr. Sterrett's chances for the nomination in the Tenth that he tried to jolly Mr. Sterrett into the belief that he (Bartholdt) would secure him the St. Louis postmastership. But when it came to naming the postmaster, Mr. Bartholdt was induced by the friends of Mr. Wyman to stand for Wyman, because Wyman and his friends could carry the Twenty-eighth ward, which Bartholdt needs in his business, and as Bartholdt considers that he can carry the Twenty-fourth without the aid of Mr. Sterrett, he flopped to Mr. Wyman in true Bartholdian style at the Twelfth hour. There can be no mistake about this, for the Westlitche Post, Bartholdt's official German organ, printed the cut of Mr. Wyman five hours before any other paper in the city knew about the appointment. Mr. Bartholdt has also tried to jolly the chairman of his committee, Kaltwasser, on the postmastership, but Kaltwasser knew six months ago that he could not rely on Mr. Bartholdt for his support. The friends of Mr. Joy are also indignant at the Herr Doctor, and Billy Hahn also got cold comfort from the doctor in his candidacy for postmaster. Bartholdt's county friends of former days seem to have deserted him, and the paper "THAT HE FELL HEIR TO THROUGH THE BREWERS," has been disposed of at a round figure. Some put it as high as $3,000 in debt, and of course the Herr Doctor will not have to make good his flourishing promise of contributing the surplus earnings to the republican campaign committee. Already the cry has gone forth "MY FRIENDS WILL HAVE TO COME TO THE RESCUE." It is believed the brewers are about tired putting up, because congressional campaigns come too high. The next campaign cry will in all probability be the one that Bartholdt used in the Kaltwasser case, "WE HAVE ALREADY YET TOO MANY CHERMANS IN OFFICE." Judge Gallenkamp, whom Bartholdt feared in Franklin county, seems to have lost his grip somehow, and word has gone to Washington that Bartholdt's relatives in the government employ have been too active in repairing their kinsmen's fences. There seems to be a determined effort on foot to retire the doctor, and The Palladium favors Mr. Sterrett. Mr. Sterrett's friends seem anxious to pay Bartholdt back in the same jolly coin that he gave them. Bartholdt and his relatives, from Beirman down, seem to have little use for anyone after election day. WM. H. MANN DEAD. A Well-Known Colored Citizen Passes Away. William H. Mann, a well-known Colored man, died at his residence, 2237 Lucas avenue, Wednesday morning, of Bright's disease. Mr. Mann was 60 years of age, and had been a resident of this city for more than half a century. He was a native of Zanesville, O. He came to St. Louis early in the 50s, and continued his vocation as a steamboatman until the breaking out of the war, when he entered the federal service, in which he remained until the close of the war. After the war he returned to his former occupation on the Mississippi river, which he left in 1867 to enter the secret service at Galveston, Tex. He returned to St. Louis later. He was an aggressive politician, and prided himself on his fidelity to the Republican cause. He was married in 1864, and reared a family of eight children, four of whom, Mrs. Ida M. Owensby, Bessie E. Sydnor, Marie J., Walter J. and Virginia, survive him. The funeral took place at ten o'clock Friday morning from St. Elizabeth's Catholic church. Fourteenth and Gay streets. C.F.

A large and highly-appreciative audience assembled in the auditorium of Lincoln Institute on the evening of the 16th of November to listen to that prince of violinists, Joseph Douglass, of Washington, D. C. Mr. Douglass is a grandson of the late Frederic Douglass, and with the magic of his musical talent held the audience as completely spellbound as his illustrious ancestor was wont to do with the matchless fire of his eloquence. considerable number of the best white citizens were out, and the entire character of the concert was such as to materially raise the Anglo-Saxon conception of the Negro's advancement and capacity for the highest degree of culture, as well as to increase the latter's respect for the genius of his race. Mr. Douglass was able support by the talent of the institute and all of the members, including scenes from "Floroda" by Lee students; from "Leah the Forsaken," by Mrs. J. S. Moten, etc., whichceived well-merited commendation, Miss Florence Pigeon, of the department of music, was Mr. Douglass' pianist for the evening, and he expressed himself as being especially impressed with the ease and skill with which this young lady accompanied him in the very difficult music selected, stating that in a tour extending over quite a period of years, he had only in one other instance been able to find a pianist of color with sufficient knowledge of music to successfully render these compositions. Among the pieces given, and that were especially appreciated, bringing forth encore after encore, melting the audience to tears by their pathos, or exciting them to mirt by their exuberant intricacies, were: "Fantasie Caprice," Vieuxtems; Gypsei Lances, Parasate; "Mazurka de Concert," Musin. Dr. Allen deserves much credit for his uniting efforts to place GARDEN C. H. TANDY. Until these three can stand on the same ground for the success of the republican party with Hon.

The sermon given on Sunday by Dr. Patillo, having as its theme, "Personality," was remarkable in its clearness, force and originality, and is the same that he will give during the year to the schools and colleges of the Methodist Church South in Missouri. It was highly appreciated by all present, and the story of his own struggle with poverty while obtaining an education, and of that of others whom he had instructed and "lifted up," could not have been otherwise than an inspiration to the struggling students in Lincoln institute. Letter of Condolence. St. Louis, Nov. 12, 1903. Rev. Frederick McKinney: Dear Father in Christ—I know how futile it is to address words, idle words, to you in this moment of supreme anguish, with which it has pleased God is His wise providence to visit you, and shall not say more than that the loss of your pure and beautiful wife, is not only a source of deep sorrow to yourself, but to all who knew her. But, Elder McKinney, as you have often told me, that "Our God is too wise to make a mistake, too good and kind to be unjust." What He has done is right, and we must be comforted with this thought: That our loss is her gain. My own grief, at the loss of dear ones, teaches me how crushing must be your affliction. May the Almighty in His goodness console you in this dark hour. Believe me always, your loving daughter in Christ, extending to you our deepest sympathy, MR. AND MRS. E.

It is reported that in many localities houses are infested by peddlers tying to sell or introduce so-called “cheap” or low-priced baking powders, either directly or by an order upon a grocer. In most instances deception is used, and it is claimed that the article is a genuine baking powder an¢ has all the merits of a pure article. ‘Housekeepers should be on their guard against this danger to their food. Alum powders are almost always low priced. But they are well known to be detrimental to health. In England and in some sections of this country their sale is prohibited by law. Congress has forbidden the sale of food contain- ing alum in the District of Columbia. ‘The highest authorities condemn their ‘use. Dz. 8. W. Johnson, for instance, Professor of Chemistry at Yale Col- lege, says: “Bread made with a bak- ing powder containing alum must yield a soluble alumina salt with the gastric juice, and must, therefore, act as a poison.” It is well known that these so-called “cheap” goods are made from alum or the very cheapest materials. One of them was recently analyzed at Yale College and found to be one-quarter sharp pointed grains of ground ‘int. Others are filled with sulphuric acid, and salts of lead are also found in them. In baking powders be sure to get a reputable well-known cream cf tartar brand, and never buy from peddlers. Senator Penrose’s Queer Flush, In a Broad street hotel in Philadel- phia Senator Quay and some friends were in the habit of “sitting in” at a regular weekly game of poker, at one of which Senator Penrose, of Penn- sylvania, was a mere looker-on. After watching the game for an hour or two the junior senator innocently re marked: “Fellows, I think I could play that game if you'd make me out a schedule of points.” ‘They did so, and Penrose, with the rules carefully written out in front of him, took a hand. As the time for the jackpot approached one of the players said: “(Nl open for a dollar.” Penrose seanned his hand, then looked carefully over the rules and asked: “What's all of one color?” “A flush,” he was told. “Pl play,” he observed. ‘The man who opened perfunctorily bet a chip, and, when the senator raised, drew out. “It's all yours, Penrose,” the latter was told, and then,as he drew the pile toward him, somebody added: “Let's see what you got, anyway.” ‘They looked, found two diamonds and three hearts, and sarcastically in- quired: “Didn't you say you had a flush?” “No; you said it,” replied Penrose, adding, ingenuonsly; “I don’t know much about the game, you know, but I rather like it.”—Chicago Chronicle. A Suggestion to Bankers. “If the bankers of the country only Anew the great difference a little soap and water makes in 1 dirty bank note, there would be more clean money in circulation,” said a treasury official while talking with friends one day last week. “If you have never seen the operation, just spread a soiled note out upon a marble slab and use a small brush that has been well soaped, and go to work scrubbing lightly, of course. But a few strokes is necessary to secure a clean note. I give my personal attention to all the paper money brought into my household, and I tell you I feel re- paid for the little work it causes. “I ean see every reason why there should be a person employed in the duty. Certainly the neglect in doing x0 gives ample cause for complaints from the patrons coneeraing the dir- ty, oily notes that are too frequently handed to them. ‘They may be full of germs, which, of course, are danger- ous, und this risk could be easily eliminated by the simple use of soap and water.”—Mail and Express. a ea ae ae a en “If you think that I am going to pay you a penny for this advertise- ment of mine in your measly old pa- per, you are mightily mistaken, my friend,” said an irate business’ man as he slammed down a copy of the Morning Reveille on the counter in the business office of the paper. “What is the matter with the ad- vertisement?” asked the _ business manager of the paper as he came forward, “Ld ask what is the matter, if T were you!

These attorneys ‘are said to have discovered the alleged original title of the Bequettes, and rep- ‘resented to the Wisconsin heirs that ‘the title lying in the patent has not Japsed by sale for taxes or adverse possession, and that it never was con- veyed by deed from the possession of the Bequettes.

(0) THE ST. LOUIS PALLADIUM IS in its 20th year of regular publi- cation. (2) Never has missed an Issue. (2) No fake subscription list to “catch” honest advertisers. (4) More bona fine subscribers than any other Negro paper in St. Louis or State. {5) The ONLY Negro newspaper pub- lished in St. Louis as the organ of the Repubiican party. (6) Becance it is the official organ of Wright Cuney Political Club. (7) Because it 18 fearless in denonne- ing crime regardless of conse- quences. When ‘the republicans get. together, they can nominate a man next year that will be elected. We do not need any advice from The Mirror of St. Louis. The party has plenty of ma- terial to nominate. But the way the federal courts are sending the demo- erats to Jefferson City, to the peniten- tiary, the only two that will be left out of the penitentiary are Hon. Harry Hawes and Joseph Folk. But if the $16,000 is not accounted for, they will only have one candidate, and that is Hon. Harry Hawes. Why don't Hon. Joseph Folk tell us about the $16,0002 WHY NOT PREPARE FOR ACTION? ‘The so-called leaders of the republi- can party are standing back discussing the dissatisfaction in the democratic party. Why not prepare for the great battle that is to be fought next year at the polls? Why not try and get to- gether? Talk does not amount to any- thing. Get to action, and see about getting together all the voting republi- cans, and stand for the party. At present we have four grand divisions in the republican party—and yet no attempt is made to unify these different elements. When any member of St. James wants printing done, they will call up- on the old Black Man. He fleeced the republican party, then the Independent in 1898, then the democrats again, and Jast he comes back to the republican party and intends to fleece them. Last Sunday he got his graft in on the St. James church for $4.41, for three-quar- ters of a column of reading matter in tne American Eagle. If ona could an- nul his manhood and conscience enough to steal from a church perhaps on¢ might be wealthy. The Old Man is 2 menace to our city, and a disgrace to our race. The idea! $4.41 for three- quarters of a column. THE PROGRESS OF THE PALLA- DIUM. Since the 17th of September, 1898, ‘The Palladium has stood in the front rank as a fearless defender of right, denouncing crime and villiany in every form. Our last fight was against sev- eral conspirators in the post office. We entered the fight when every white pa- per in St. Louis was against him, and they tried their best to blacken his character. But The Palladium belehed forth facts that could not be denied, We sent these facts to Wash- ington, D, C., to the president, and in due time Mr. Foulke came to St. Lovis and found what The Palladium had stated was true, So the investigations ‘were made, and all was seen clearly that Andy McGrew, Joseph Dreyer, Samuel Kober, Birdie Knott and J. J. ‘Tatum were found in the conspiracy, and are now dismissed. MISSOURI METHODISTS. October 12, 1903, our beloved Bishop €. T.

These experienced gentlemen now have a study at 2605 Lawton avenue, and the collection of their drawings has excited the most skeptical mind which proves their wonderful genius. It would be well for any person to call at their studio that they may be convinced that they are truly two great artists, and their work will commend them to the lovers of oil paintings and art in every particular. Of course, most persons have their doubts as to the genuine work by them, but if you will visit their studio you can see them with brush in hand at work on some of the most difficult pictures. You will then be convinced for their profession. They invite you to call and see for yourself at 2605 Lawton avenue. The whereabouts of one George Henry Johnson, who lived in Concordia parish, La.

FOOTBALL FOOTBALL The management of the Sumner High school team have succeeded in arranging a game of football with the Central High school, of Louisville, Ky. to be played at Handlan's park, corner Laclede and Grand avenues. Thanksgiving afternoon, November 26, at 2:30 o'clock. The game promises to be a most interesting and hotly-contested one. The management of Sumner have gone to great expense in bringing the Louisville team here, and asks for the generous support of the public. The annual Thanksgiving day game has grown to be one of the events of the year, and it was exceedingly flattering to see what a large crown turned out last year, despite the bad weather conditions. It is desired to make the game this year most successful from every standpoint, and Mr. James W. Grant, field manager, is making all arrangements to handle the large crowd expected. Sumner has the strongest team this year in her football history; the boys are in excellent trim, and will put up the battle of their lives to bring the victory to St. Louis. The colors of the Louisville team are black and gold; those of Sumner, maroon and white. --- NOTICE MUSEO DE LA REPUBLICA DE MADRID ILLINOIS BUILDING The Illinois building will stand on high ground.

FIVE YEARS AND A HEAVY FINE The Sentences Imposed by Judge Adams on John P. Dolan and Frank P. Garrett For Fraudulent Naturalization. St. Louis, Nov. 19.—John P. Dolan, chairman of the democratic city committee, and Frank Garrett, a former policeman, were sentenced to five years in the penitentiary for their connection with the naturalization frauds of 1902, by Judge Elmer B. Adams, in the United States district court Wednesday morning. The sentence of Thomas E. Barrett was deferred because of other indictments against him. A crowd was waiting when the doors of the United States district court were opened, in anticipation of the sentencing of the convicted men, and it took but a few minutes to fill every available seat. Notice was given of an intention to apply for a writ of error, and the court was asked to release the defendants on bond, until action could be taken on the writ. The request was refused, and the two men were committed to the custody of the United States marshal. The sentence imposed by the court was the maximum, and in passing it Judge Adams censured the defendants severely. He said, after he had called them before the bar and they declared they had nothing to say: "Of all the offenses known to the law, that of which you have been convicted most seriously affects the public welfare. "It corrupts the source of political and national life. "It works a fraud upon every honest citizen. "It tends to nullify the action of the voters." "In your individual cases, one of you a conservator of the peace, the other ambitions to become one, you have been guilty of these offenses. "You have violated the law and taught others to do so. "You have substituted yourselves for the courts of the land. "You have used your offices for the most ignoble purposes. "All this has been done by you regardless of your duty. "You have been found guilty after a long, patient and expensive trial; you have been represented by able counsel. Nothing remains in the case but to pass sentence. "You have been guilty of but one action, although convicted on a count in two indictments. By reason of this fact, the court will enforce the spirit of the law and sentence you upon one violation of the law, but to the full limit of the law, owing to the great enormity of your offense. "The sentence is that you each be confined in the penitentiary for five years at hard labor, and you are assessed a fine of $1,000 ach." FUNERAL OF ELLA HENNEGER It Was the Largest Ever Seen in Macon County, Ill.-No Trace of Strubbe Or His Team. Havana, Ill., Nov. 19.—The body of Ella Henneger, who was murdered by Fred Strubbe last Saturday night, was buried in the little churchyard near her home Wednesday. The funeral was the largest ever seen in Mason county. The manner of the girl's death had shocked the community and hundreds of persons came from distant points to witness the burial services. Not a single trace has been found of the murderer. Telegrams have been sent by the sheriff to every point within a hundred miles touched by the telegraph wires. It seems improbable that a young man well known in this county, driving a span of horses, could make his way out of the country and escape observation. The spot where the tragedy took place is but a few miles from the Illinois river. Those who hold to the theory of Strubbe's suicide suggest that he may have driven his team over the river bank into the water. Acting upon this suggestion, a party of the young man's friends are searching along the stream for traces of the buggy and team, but so far nothing to confirm this theory has been discovered.

IT'S ALL UP NOW WITH KRATZ Extradition Papers Are Found Flawless by Mexican Government. Circuit Attorney Folk Notified by State Department That Boodler's Case Has Been Acted On. St. Louis, Nov. 18.—Circuit Attorney Joseph W. Folk Tuesday afternoon received a telegram from the department of state at Washington saying that Secretary Hay had received a message from Ambassador Powell Clayton, the representative of the United States at the Mexican capital which stated that the Mexican officials had found the extradition papers in the Kratz papers to be without fault, and would honor them in the shortest possible time. Circuit Attorney Folk says that this means that Charles Kratz the boulder, will be handed over to the St. Louis authorities now in Mexico by the Mexican government, without any legal conflict, and that it will be but a matter of a few days until Chief Desmond and Sheriff Dickmann have their man ready to start on the journey to St. Louis. Circuit Attorney Folk is very jubilant over the message from Washington, and considers his troubles in the case practically over. The delay in the proceedings has been caused in the handling of the extradition papers by the Mexican government. The documents are of very great length, and they had to be read by the interpreters and translated into the Mexican, or Spanish language, before the officials could act on them. This consumed a great deal of time. Kratz has been confined in the Mexican penitentiary at Jalisco for two weeks, owing to the discovery of an alleged conspiracy to rescue him and take him to the coast on horseback, and thence by a convenient vessel to some Central or South American republic. PROTEST AGAINST BLOCKADE State Department Refuses to Recognize the San Domingo Blockade and Enters Vigorous Protest. New York, Nov. 18.—The United States government has refused to recognize the blockade of San Dominican ports, made two days ago, and has protested against it. This was confirmed by Nevada N. Stranahan, collector of the port of New York, Tuesday. The collector received telegraphic advice from the treasury department advising him that the state department does not consider the blockade effective and has entered a vigorous protest against it. The collector, in conformity with his instructions and the protest, has notified masters of vessels sailing to San Dominican ports that clearance papers will be issued for any ports in San Domingo, thus officially refuting the effectiveness of the blockade. At the offices of the Clyde line it was said that the Cherokee will clear to-day for her usual trip, calling at the ports which the local Dominican consuls say are "closed." NEW ANECDOTE OF SHERMAN General Once Expressed Himself as Being Tired of "Marching Through Georgia." New York, Nov. 18—Gen. David B. Henderson, former speaker of the house of representatives, made his first public address Tuesday in this city. The occasion was a dinner given by the Lafayette camp, Sons of Veterans, in commemoration of Sherman's march to the sea. The general's son, P. Tecumseh Sherman, a member of the camp, was present, and the flag that the great soldier once gave the camp and that was carried on his coffin from here to his grave at St. Louis hung over the speaker's table. Gen. Henderson related how, at a reunion of the Army of the Tennessee Gen. Sherman was so annoyed by the bands that he blurted out, "I've got tired of that song, 'Marching Through Georgia.' The battles I wish impressed on my country men are those of the campaign through the Carolinas." ELKINS BEOUEST ILLEGAL The Codicil Providing For the Erection of a Masonic Orphanage Declared to Be Illegal. Philadelphia, Nov. 18.—The bequest of $240,000, or, if necessary, $250,000, for the erection of a Masonic orphanage, made by the late William T. Elkins, has been declared illegal by the register of wills of Montgomery county. This decision is due to the fact that the codicil providing for the gift was made within 30 days of the testator's death, and is therefore inoperative. It will be necessary for the Peirs to make provisions to pay over the sum to the Masonic Home of Pennsylvania if the wishes of Mr. Elkins are to be carried out. Davenports' Trial For Murder. Belleville, Ill., Nov. 18.—The trial of Lawrence Davenport, of East St. Louis, for the murder of his brother-in-law, James Wilkerson, last summer, was commenced in the circuit court at Belleville Tuesday. Davenport never did explain the cause for the fight which resulted in Wilkerson's death from stab wounds. Nebraska Hank Robbed.

He adds to the fun sometimes with a witticism of his own. Such was the case when one of the students perpetrated the following anecdote: "What good recipe for catching rabbits?" "Why, yes," replied the professor. "What is it?" "Well, you crouch down behind a thick stone wall and make a noise like a turnip," answered the youth, giggling in ecstasy.

In a downtown church, as the story goes, there was introduced a new hymn last Sunday, and, after the disposal of the services, the organ blower found his way to the player's bench and asked in a meek voice, "Music for that new hymn go this evening?" "Oh, very well, very well, indeed," replied the organist; "but why do you ask?" "Well," said the blower, "I'll tell you the truth.

St. John, Kans., Nov. 16th.—This town has a genuine sensation in the case of a little boy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. William McBride. Dr. Lines, the attending physician, says: "Scarlet blood of a very malignant type brings this child very near to death and when the fever left him, he was semi-paralyzed in the right leg and right arm. He also lost hearing in his right ear and his mind was much affected. "His parents tried another treatment for a time and when I was recalled I found that he was having spells very like Epilepsy and was very bad and gradually growing worse. I used a short time the child began to improve. Inside of a week the nervous spasms or epileptic seizures ceased altogether." Mr. and Mrs. McBride have made a sworn statement of the facts and Dr. Jesse L. Lines has added his sworn statement saying that Dodd's Kidney Pills and nothing else cured the fits.

Miss Rose Peterson Secretary Miss Rose Peterson, Secretary Parkdale Tennis Club, Chicago, from experience advises all young girls who have pains and sickness peculiar to their sex, to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. How many beautiful young girls develop into worn, listless and hopeless women, simply because sufficient attention has not been paid to their physical development. No woman is exempt from physical weakness and periodic pain, and young girls just budding into womanhood should be carefully guided physically as well as morally. If you know of any young lady who is sick, and needs motherly advice, ask her to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., who will give her advice free, from a source of knowledge which is unequalled in the country. Do not hesitate about stating details which one may not like to talk about, and which are essential for a full understanding of the case. Miss Hannah E. Mershon, Collins wood. N. J., says: "I thought I would write and tell you that, by following your kind advice, I feel like a new person. I was always thin and delicate, and so weak that I could hardly do anything. Menstruation was irregular. "I tried a bottle of your Vegetable Compound and began to feel better right away. I continued its use, and am now well and strong, and enstrume regularly. I cannot say enough for what your medicine did for me." "I tried a bottle of your Vegetable Compound and began to feel better right away. I continued its use, and am now well and strong, and menstruate regularly. I cannot say enough for what your medicine did for me." DEAR MRS.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL Lesson in the International Series for November 22, 1903-Curse of Strong Drink. 1. Wine is a more strong drink is rais- nier than whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise 20. Be not among winebibbers; among riotus roes of flesh; 21. For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty! and drowsiness shall elope a man with rags. 22. Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath blindness without cause? who hath redness of eyes. 23. They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. 24. Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his color in the cup; when it giveth his color in the light; at the last it bites like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. 25. Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things. 26. sea, thou shalt be as he that litch down in the midst of the sea, or as he that litch upon the top of a mast. 27. They have stricken me, shalt thou me, and I felt it; they have beaten me, and I felt it it yet again. GOLDEN TEXT.—Wine is a mocker.—Prov. 20:1. (Prov. 20:1.) Of course these selections from the ancient Hebrew "Wisdom-literature" do not bring us new light on the temperance question. They simply show us that to the world's keenest minds there has always been light, and that from time immemorial liquor has been the curse of the human race. But the facts stated by this writer with such dramatic power are indisputable, and could not picture the situation more perfectly if they had been written in America in 1803. The first great point in the lesson for to-day is not that "wine is a mocker," though it is—it mocks all high ideals and makes dapes of those who trust it, for it is voluble with promises which it never pays—nor is the point for us that strong drink is a brawler, though that is true, as anyone who is familiar with the sights and sounds about the doors of a saloon knows. The first great point for us is in the words: "Whoseover ereth thereby is not wise." As the race advances and men are controlled more by reason and less by inclination and momentary desire, the foolish things will be seen to be wicked, just as the wicked things are always foolish. Drinking is wicked, because it is foolish. It is the high privilege and duty of every man to make the most of himself physically, mentally and morally. This he cannot do unless he rules out the doing of foolish things. There are a great many kinds of physical foolishness that are intemperance, just as truly as drinking is, and these should be included in the discussion of this lesson. The worst crime which a boy can commit lagalust society and against God is that which makes him less of a man, less useful as a citizen, less true as a Christian. The reasons why the use of liquor is, to say the least, not wise, are brought out as the lesson progresses. (Ch. 23: 20, 21). "Be not among winebibbers:" Self-indulgence or the self-indulgent disposition is contagious. No man who has any regard for his manhood can afford to run unnecessary risks with this contagion. The wise man will keep out of temptation just as much as possible. "Shall come to poverty:" With the wreck of one's manhood goes the wreck of his fortune, so that he who sacrifices his ideals and the highest things of life for low sensual pleasures finds himself in the end without either. In choosing the lower he loses all. (Vs. 31, 32). "Look not thou upon the wine when it is red:" In other words, do not be insane enough to drink anything just because it looks good and tastes good, and for awhile makes you feel good, when you know that it is really a poison. "At the last it blithe like a serpent:" It is deadly. The man does not live who can begin taking liquor or a drug "in moderation" with safety, because the system does not exist that can resist the deteriorating effects of those things. One can never tell what the direct effect will be. But it will not be purely physical. They benumb the conscience, destroy will power and kill self-respect. The moderation theory is unsound. The only safe course is to leave them alone entirely. (Vs. 33-35.) These closing verses picture the reading mind and stupefied body of the drunken man. One reading of them is enough without discussion. The question is, how we can best check the evils of intemperance. The principle must be to overcome evil with good, and one of the practical methods is hinted at in this utterance of Henry van Dyke in the baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class at Princeton last June: "Intemperance," he said, "is the type of all evils, because so many others grow out of it. The way to attack it is to make sober life beautiful and full of interest. Teach your boys how to work, how to read and study, you, fathers, before you send them to college. If you want to guard them against the temptations of strong drink and the many shames and sorrows that go with it. You reformers, provide men with recreations that will not harm them, if you want to take away the power of the gilded saloons." PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS. Others have troubles, but none has so many as does the drunkard. No one will have the drunkard's bitter experiences, if he does not taste the first cup. Looking, tasting, sipping, draining, guzzling—those are the steps by which one becomes a drunkard. The full consequences do not fall upon the drunkard himself. His family suffers with him. Banish the saloon, and you make safe the home. Many homes are dismantled that there may be one dirty saloon. Was Afont with Napoleon. Two men living in St. Helena who were born respectively in 1798 and 1862 are not the only persons now living who have seen Napoleon the Great. Thomas De Moleyns, who was for many years county court judge of Kilkenny, who was called to the Irish bar in 1831, and appointed a queen's counsel in 1855, in his early boyhood in the royal navy. Mr. De Moleyns was a midshipman on board the Bullerophon when Napoleon, on July 15, 1815, after the "hundred days," placed himself under the flag of his country and was received on board the Bullerophon.—Chicago Tribune. Money Value of Toads. Mr. A. H. Kirkland asserts, after an examination of the character of the food eaten by toads, that those ugly little animals are great benefactors of the farmer. They destroy enormous numbers of injurious insects and other enemies of cultivated crops. The amount of money that a single toad might save to a farmer in one season by the destruction of cutworms has been estimated at nearly $20. This calculation is based on the damage that the number of cutworms a toad could eat in a season would be able to effect among growing crops.—Youth's Companion. One of Many. Editor—Your story seems to be fairly good, but I'm afraid we can't use it, because as an author you are unknown; you have no name, as it were. Author—The name affixed to the story is a nom de plume. My real name is quite well known—in fact, it is a household word wherever the English language is spoken. "Indeed! And what is it, pray?" "John Smith." — Chicago Evening News. Sherthand贸 to Premier- Like many another successful man, Sir John Gordon Sprigg went to the Cape in his youth because he was too delicate to live comfortably in England. His occupation was at first that of a shorthand writer, but he quickly found his talent in the direction of politics serviceable, and has been premier no fewer than three times in the Cape parliament. A Wise Precaution. Senior Partner—Make each of our employees hand in a list of all his relatives. Junior Partner—What on earth do you want that for? "The baseball season opens soon, and I want to make sure that each relative dies only once during the summer."—N. Y. Journal. Charity Among Ants: It is certain that ants intentionally sanction the residence of certain insects in their nests. This is the case, for instance, with a curious blind beetle, which is absolutely dependent upon ants, and is habitually fed by them, the ants supplying it with nourishment as they do one another—Chicago Tribune. A Chance for All. Mrs. Gadd—N-o, I guess not. She hain't no ear for music. "Well, I wouldn't be discouraged at that; melby she might learn to play classic, anyhow."—N. Y.

There comes a time to both men and women when sickness and poor health bring anxiety and trouble hard to bear; disappointment seems to follow every effort of physicians in our behalf, and remedies we try have little or no effect. In many such cases serious mistakes are made in doctoring, and not knowing what the disease is or what makes us sick. Kind nature warns us by certain symptoms, which are unmistakable evidence of danger, such as too frequent desire to urinate, scanty supply, scalding irritation, pain or dull ache in the back—they tell us in silence that our kid- ART ENTHUSIASM.

One day he saw a newly finished picture on the casel, relates the New York Times. "Ah! that's fine," he burst out, "fine! There's lots of life, lots of animation in that, my boy. You've struck the right thing now—life and action." "But, father, I don't understand what you mean." "Why, that picture has action, movement in it. Look at those horses, rearing and tearing ahead, tugging at the reins—and their riders are standing up in their stirrups, snouting and waving their sabers over their heads—the whole picture is movement and animation.

Office 4265 St. Ferdinand Ave. Mr. Jeff Smith. We wish to present Mr. Jeff. Smith, who conducts a saloon on 1201 Morgan street, and another on the southeast corner of Twelfth and Wash. He is one of the most remarkable characters that we have come across. He conducted a saloon at the same number for Mr. Barney Belker, who now keeps a grocery opposite his place. Mr. Belker, during bad health, placed implicit confidence in Mr. Smith, and when he went out of business he offered Mr. Smith certain considerations. Mr. Smith's financial condition did not permit him to accept the offer, but Mr. Belker trusted the saloon to Mr. Smith. In three years Mr. Smith managed not only to return the debt, but also to open another saloon. All who are acquainted with Mr. Smith speak well of his integrity and thrift. Not only that, but everyone who has been in his employ, speak of Mr. Smith's kind and just attitude toward him. Mr. Smith first began advertising in The Palladium over two years ago, and of all its subscribers he was the first to pay in advance. Of course he knows The Palladium knows no such word as fail. Mr. Smith has been in poor health for the past few months, but is up again, and his friends hope for his ultimate success. He has several brothers; one is with him in business. Mr. Smith lives at 1333 Gay street. A MOST REMARKABLE CHARAC Mr. Robert Johnson, of 209 South Fifteenth street, was born in 1815; therefore, was a slave 45 years. He passed through the civil war in the commissary department, and since that time, through friends, he has secured several good positions. In 1881 he was employed by the late Hon. John W. Turner, street commissioner under Mayor William L. Ewing; then under Hon. D. R. Francis, who was mayor of St. Louis. For the past ten years he has been a patient sufferer, not being able to do any hard work, yet he was always willing to do something for a living. He is now a newsdealer, selling papers. By that means he makes a fair living. He sells the St. Louis Palladium, and if you wish to help him, you can do so. Remember, he can not get out, but you can get The St. Louis Palladium by calling at his house, 209 South fifteenth street. BUD GATEWOOD. Captain. IRVIN WHEELER Business Agen THE 400 A. Mrs. Ples Holly is quite sick, and will leave Newport for Cairo, Tuesday morning, 17th inst., with the hope of becoming better. ESSENCE. It is exceedingly quiet around Newport now, both because of the falling off of work and of the grand jury's inquiries as to so much lawlessness in shooting about the streets. Your correspondent here in Newport learned, incidentally, that a certain citizen claims that the statement made in The Palladium—issue of October 17—as to "Mr. Ples Holly, a league member, has a nice little home here," is not true. The general sentiment here is that the would-be critic of the truthful "nice little home" statement thinks he is better than his own people, with whom he has nothing to do in the way of assisting the community to be better. The community in which a person lives is by far a truer, more universal and substantial self of the individual than his single would-be big self. Why, my friend, Mr. Editor, who has known me for years, what happiness would you or any other individual get out of St. Louis, which is now not St. Louis Missouri, but St. Louis, The World, if it would be given you on the condition that everyone else leave, and that you sustain absolutely no communication with a living human being on the earth? Would you accept the bargain. No! An everlasting no! What would St. Louis, The World, be to you or anyone with no human companionship? What would Newport be to our friend Critic on the same condition of absolute excommunication. Now, my friend Critic, come out from your little, insignificant, dying worm-of-the-dust self, and put on your truer and more cosmopolitan self, and try Ples Holly-like, to make Newport your home, a more respectable place to live. So I repeat: "Mr. Ples Holly has a nice little home." Not finely decorated with paint, furniture and a grassy lawn, but a comfortable shelter from rain, snow and storm, to which he can freely return when you would not admit him to yours. Honorable hard-worked-for comfort is always "nice" to him who earns it. Thus I claim truth for the statement: "Mr. Ples Holly has a nice little home."

The handsome gowns of some of the ladies were displayed to an admiring audience. The music was captivating, the orchestra receiving numerous encores. The play was well rendered. Mrs. Cannon, as "Charity," and Mr. Orman, as "Harvey Maynard," displayed excellent theatrical ability. Miss Marie Henderson, as "Kitty," played her part well. Miss Harvey Nichie, as usual, captivated the audience with her sweet contralto voice. RAMSEY'S THE STRICTLY MODERN ROOMING HOUSE Of the city for Gentlemen and the general traveling public.
