St. Louis Palladium

ST LOUIS PALLADIUM Lyons' Short Order Restaurant Always Open 2337 Market St. Vol. XXII. No. 23. P. BISHOP MACK. Editor of the St. Louis Paladin Hall. Please allow me space in your brave and valuable paper, a paper that all the people of St. Louis and other cities should appreciate for its truth and veracity. I must speak on some things that pain my heart to say. It seems there is a faction here in St. Louis—there are two ministerial conferences organized among the Baptist ministers. There is a set of Baptist ministers holding to Rev. Cochon and there is another set that is against Rev. Cochon. The Central Baptist church and the First Baptist church, the Chambers Street Baptist church, the Fifth Baptist church, the Mt. Zion Baptist church and others have made resolutions in these bodies that shall not be recognized if they hold to Rev. Cochon. My advice to the brethren and for the sake of the Baptist cause is: It would be best to humble yourselves and come together, according to the rules laid down by the new church directory, which is the statute book and written policy, according to the New Testament. The rules laid down are: If a Baptist church or independent bodies exclude a member—that includes ministers as well—without waiting on him according to Gospel steps and the 18th chapter of Matthew, and excludes a member without taking the above steps, the church is in error, and should reconsider her actions. But if the church has properly waited upon the member, and he or she will not obey, it would be better for them to read the 18th chapter of St. Matthew, 17th verse, which readeth: "If they won't heed the church, let them be unto them as a heathen man and a publican, let them be minister or layman." No church or minister can affiliate with them until the member or members go back and make confession to the church of which he or she was a member. That will settle the difficulty. The one that rules ought to be the first to obey. There are a great many of our Baptist ministers, who are misleading the church, who ought to be brought to time by our sister churches. They will say to the congregation that they do not believe in the new church directory which is written for Baptist churches. The government, discipline and written polity is in this book. I have no confidence in a church or minister that ignores the guide. We have a guide, and therefore let us go by it. I will preach my farewell sermon on next Monday night at Chambers Street Baptist church at 8 o'clock. My subject will be "The Church Polity and History;" and Wednesday night at the Fifth Baptist church—subject. "Church Power: Officers, and Their Qualifications, According to Their Baptist Faith." We invite the public, and especially all of the Baptist ministers and churches of the city to attend. Yours in Christ. Bishop A. Mack, D. D., of Kansas City, Mo., and the National General Evangelizer of the U. S. A. The bishop will leave next Thursday on the Wabash to hold a basket meeting at the First Baptist church, Eolia, Mo. DEATH CAME UNEXPECTED. Mrs. Jane Anderson, of 324 South Compton avenue, by an accident, was burned so badly last week that death relieved her sufferings after a few days. Mrs. Anderson and her daughter lived at the above number, and they were like two sisters. Seldom did you ever see one without the other, but God in His wisdom saw fit to separate them. This should be a lesson to all. "In the midst of life is death," and when enjoying the world's pleasures it is then we are ushered into the presence of our Maker. We deeply sympathize with the daughter in the loss of her dear mother, and can only commend her to him that doeth all things for the best. There are about one hundred Negroes that he around and haven't done a day's work in ten years, and they are the ones who cause many of our good girls to go astray. The police force and the Paladium are joined in an effort to drive them out of town. CITY NEWS.

Miss Carrie Carney, a superb vocalist; Miss Pansy Phelps, of St. Joseph, violinist, and Misses Cassie Jones and Nellie Akers, pianists, ably assisted Mr. White, and demonstrated that Lincoln Institute's department of musicians under the supervision of Miss Carney, head of department of vocal music, and Miss Pigeon, head of department of instrumental music, is one of the strongest in the country. The high character of the music given at all religious exercises of the school, I was caught and taken up from the earth and felt the cool air blowing on me, and went to Heaven in the spirit. After walking and looking around, an angel took me to an open door, and I looked down on the stars. They seemed to disappear. I looked again and I saw St. Louis. This was nearly twenty-years ago, before ever I thought of coming here to live. I came here from Kentucky in 1899, and have lived here ever since, joining the Central Baptist church four years ago, I January, 1906. I was impressed by the Holy Spirit to tell some of the many things I saw, and if I would tell them my husband would be converted. I asked Pastor Stevens could I tell some dreams as I call them, and he said: "Yes, just get and tell them," and the next night I walked back in the rear of the church and led my invalid husband to the altar, and he was happily converted. The night after this I was endowed with power, such power as I never had in all the days of my life. This is a message from Jesus, himself, telling me to tell all the people, both white and Colored, rich and poor, that He is coming soon and prepare your hearts and be ready. He told me to publish it in the best possible way and he would do the rest." Mrs. Mary Fields, 2217 Morgan street. NOTICE Past Master's Council will have a special meeting, Friday, May 25, at 8 p. m.

On the Father of Waters the splendid steamer went down the river with the first grand moonlight excursion of the season, and it was a grand success. There were about 700 or 800 people aboard the steamer. The reporter of the Palladium was invited to a splendid repast in the big, hall of the boat, where were found all the good things that make a hungry man smile.

Buckner, Miss Laura Mason, Idella Buckner, Mrs. McCraven and little Ellen Weaver, mascot. All enjoyed themselves to their hearts' content.

Washington, May 18.—Senator Bailey again, Thursday, took the floor in the senate to make a further explanation of his connection with the efforts to secure an understanding between the president and the democratic senators on the railroad rate bill, basing his statement on an article in the Chicago Tribune and the New York Tribune charging him with bad faith in that connection, and giving Senator Chandler as authority for that statement. He had read a series of letters and memoranda beginning with a request from himself to the former senator for a copy of any statement that he might have made that justified this statement. This was followed by the reading of the following letter from Mr. Chandler: "Washington, D. C., May 16, 1906. "Hon. J. W. Bailey, United States Senator—Dear Sir: I have your letter of to-day and I inclose to you a copy of a memorandum sent by me to the White House on morning of Wednesday, April 11. I think the memorandum was not dated, but my retained copy is dated April 11. I did not therein give the president any assurances as to your attitude relative to the so-called 'game', because I had not seen you, and did not feel authorized by anything Mr. Tillman had then said to give any assurance in your name. At 9:15 p. m. I saw Mr. Tillman and talked with him fully, and he then told me that neither he nor yourself were entering into 'games' with the railroad senators; and at 9:30 I saw the president and told him what Mr. Tillman had said, and that he need have no apprehension on the subject. I inclose to you copies from my diary, April 13 I saw Mr. Moody, and again on the 14th, and arranged with him to see Mr. Tillman and yourself on the next day, Sunday, the 15th. Memorandum to secretary Loeb. Then followed the memorandum to Secretary Loeb, and that was accompanied by an extract from Mr. Chandler's diary. The memorandum was as follows: "The 'game' of the railroad senators is to support Bailey's amendment and induce him to agree to a broad right of court review. What that is to be is not certain, but the principal object is to 'beat him,' meaning the president. Mr. Tillman, however, considers himself as acting with the president to pass the review clause with the minimum amount of court power and will not enter into any such 'game.'" "Diary: April 11—At 9:15 p. m. saw Senator Tillman at the Colonial about railroad house legislation. At 9:30 at White House saw President Roosevelt alone up-stairs. Talked of railroad rates and many other things for more than an hour. He was very gracious. At about 10:30 to Colonial, with Tillman until 11:45." Proceeding with his remarks, Mr. Bailey said that the New York Tribune of to-day (Thursday) had put the matter somewhat differently from Wednesday's presentation thus, "modifying the lie." He quoted to-day's (Thursday) article, in which it was stated that copies of Mr. Chandler's letter to the president had been in circulation among democratic senators. To this statement Mr. Bailey gave especial attention, saying that he had made inquiry sufficient to assure him that not one of the democratic senators had ever seen the document, much less circulated it." I did not. Wednesday, know that any senator on the republican side had seen it, but I am enabled to say now that on Wednesday the president showed it to one of them, and also to a member of the house, and if this statement is denied I can call names." Others Were Playing a "Game." He then declared that if Mr. Chandler had never spoken another word there was not a syllable in his memorandum concerning himself to justify the statement that he (Chandler) had impugned his (Bailey's) good faith. "He does not say that I was playing a 'game.'" he went on, "but that others were. I will say that the 'game' was played to Tried to Wreck Fast Train. Tiffin, O., May 17.—With loaded guns and revolvers pointed at their heads and with daggers and stilettos menacingly floured over them, 25 Italian laborers were forced by 100 fellow countrymen to tear up several rails on the B. & O. road near Attica in an attempt to the fast east mail train. Only the timely discovery of F. J. Dell, timekeeper of the road, saved the lives of many people, passengers on the train, which was brought to a standstill but a short distance from the misplaced rails. Two of Wickliffe Band In Jail. Vinita, I. T., May 18.—Ben Hungry and Ned Carseulte, two members of the Wickliffe band of outlaws, who killed Deputy United States Marshal I. L. Gilstrap, have been lodged in jail here by United States Marshal W. H. Darrough. Mrs. Davis Has Relapse. New York, May 18.—Mrs. Jefferson Davis suffered a relapse. Dr. Wylie was summoned to the Hotel Gerard, and remained with her several hours. Her condition is serious. catch others, and very successfully." Further continuing the memorandum, he called attention to the fact that the effort was "to beat the president." "With that," he added, "I ought to have sympathized, but at the time did not." He then called attention to the fact that upon the president's authority Mr. Chandler's veracity had been challenged in the senate by Mr. Lodge and asked: "In view of that fact does it lie in the mouth of those people to assail me with a statement like that from a man whom they have denounced as a false witness?" Continuing, he said: "The President's Attitude. "The president did not consider this memorandum an impeachment of my good faith. The proof of that is, that with the memoranda before him, within three days he asked me to confer with his attorney general on this vital question. "It is inconceivable that the president, with a suspicion of my integrity in his mind, would permit his attorney general to transmit to me, an amendment intended to be incorporated in this great measure. I have no words to express my opinion of those who would treat with those whom they suspect of treachery, and only traitors would do it." Chicago Tribune's Correspondent. Senator Bailey then read briefly from the reply of the Chicago Tribune's correspondent to his speech of denunciation made on Wednesday, and continuing said: "My statement does not seem to have disturbed the correspondent of that paper, because he says he was overlooked in my attack on the president. Perhaps he regards it as being overlooked to be called an unqualified, malicious liar. He says he had not the Chandler memoranda before him, but he attempts to quote from it. Now where did he see it. I did not show it to him. Ex-Senator Chandler did not show it to him. It is addressed to Mr. Loeb, the president's secretary. I will leave it to the country and the senate to say who furnished him his information concerning it." The Texas senator spoke of his own faults, admitting that he has at times justly been called arbitrary, dictatorial, intemperate in speech and rash, but he declared that he had never done a wrong without making reparation, when the fault was called to his notice. He said that no man ever before had imputed to him a lack of candor; no man had ever charged him with double dealing, and could not do so now and escape his denunciation. The Brand of Liar. "Across the brow of such a man," he said, "he would put the brand of liar, so that all men may know him and shun him." No one else, spoke on the subject. During the entire recital there was intense interest in the senate and galleries. SAYS PATRICK IS INNOCENT Committee of the Medico-Legal Society Say Wm. Marsh Rice Was Not Murdered. New York, May 18—William Marsh Rice was not murdered by Albert T. Patrick or anybody else, according to a report of a committee of the Medico-Legal society. "There is not an unprejudiced medical mind in the world," said Clark Bell at a meeting of the society, at the Waldorf, "who would believe that if a towel made into a cone, containing a sponge saturated with choloform, was placed over the face of a living man, who was asleep, it would cause death if he was left alone for thirty minutes. The first struggle that the man made would dislodge and throw off the towel." "It is not likely that the statement made by Valet Jones of the method of killing Rice by inhalation of chloroform has a single element of truth." Cabel Powers' next trial in connection with the killing of William Goebel will be held in Scott county, Kentucky. Codifying Federal Laws. Washington, May 18—The house held a session Thursday night for the reading of the bill codifying the laws of the United States. No other business was transacted at the session. Chairman Moon of the committee on revision of the laws estimates that it will require at least ten days or two weeks to read the bill. The bill deals only with the penal code, and consists of more than 1,000 sections. It is the intention of the committee to try to get through the penal code only at this session. Washington, May 15. The business of the interior department was practically suspended during half of Thursday out of respect to the memory of Carl Schurz, former secretary of the interior, whose funeral occurred Thursday.

NEGRO NEWSPAPERS OF THE UNITED STATES. We have tried hard to get the exact number of papers that are published by the Negroes of the United States, and their standing, from the best of and most reliable authority outside of what we have at our command. There are about 171 Negro newspapers published in the United States, and as near as we can count them, they are as follows: Alabama and Georgia, 15 each... 30 Illinois and North Carolina, 12 each... 24 Mississippi... 14 Pennsylvania and Kentucky, 10 each 20 Texas... 12 Missouri... 12 Massachusetts, South Carolina and Florida, 6 each... 18 Washington, D.

We have about 20 of them that last sometimes a year. The whites are flooded down with them. Out of the 171 there are about 80 that stand side by side "THE OLD RELIABLE" E. W.

"JL" CHICAGO, IL with weekly white papers of this country. Our people have not as yet arrived to that point where they carefully appreciate a paper published by Negro men and women. We see German, Irish, French, Hebrew and Italian papers printed, and supported by that particular class of people, and yet the Negro can not fully understand why a Negro paper is published. We take it for a fact that the majority of Negro ladies and gentlemen read the white daily papers to get the news of the world, so we read a paper published by French, German, Irish, Bohemian, Italian or Negro we get the news of that particular people, and they ought to be patronized. White people recognize their newspapers, magazines and other periodicals as the pivot on which their information is dispensed among the people. Newspapers mold sentiment for good or evil. Then the Negro inhabitants of this country should look to our people and the Negro papers to dispuse news and information. Yet some of our best-writers and publishers have had to give up, and go into other business, and the reason is because they were not supported. Thomas Fortune and Cooper are leaders in the journalistic world, and brilliant and first-class men have had to almost attempt to give up. WE LEAD OTHERS FOLLOW! The St. Louis Palladium has more subscribers than any other two Negro papers in the.state of Missouri. We have more business men and women that advertise in The Palladium than any four Negro papers in the west. Notice the thick rubber tread "A" and puncture strips "B" and "D," also rim strip "B" to prevent rim cutting. This makes them easier to make—SOFT, ELASTIC and EASY RIDING. Happenings in Missouri. Wealth in Missouri Banks. The banking department of Secretary's Swanger's office has completed the tabulation of the reports of the financial condition to March 20, 1906, of the 885 incorporated and private banks and 28 trust companies in Missouri, as filed by these institutions. As a similar one made ten years ago shows an increase of 295 banks and 28 trust companies, with an increase of $241,834,631.28 in resources. Ten years ago there were no trust companies reported. In the report there are 781 banks outside Kansas City, St. Louis and St. Joseph, with total resources and corresponding liabilities of $118,844,945.42; 15 incorporated banks in St. Louis with $65,818,251.24 resources; eight incorporated banks in St. Joseph with $8,365,759.85 resources; 75 private banks throughout the state, $8,174,727.29 resources. Six incorporated banks in Kansas City show $6,358,262.19 resources, making a total of $207,201,945.99 resources, with corresponding liabilities, for all the 885 banks. The 28 trust companies of the state have $133,550,939.06 resources, making the grand total resources of all the banks and trust companies $340,742,885.05. The report shows an increase of one bank in Kansas City the last decade with an increase of $3,-994,835.79 in resources. The Game and Fish Law. The game and fish law, passed at the last session of the legislature, has proved far reaching in its effect and of interest to many individuals. Unusually rigid enforcement has resulted in hundreds of prosecutions in the state courts, the accumulation of a substantial fund for the maintenance of a staff of wardens, and a noticeable benefit to thousands of sportsmen, who find recreation in the use of rod or gun. The new law, which was written and introduced in the legislature by H. R. Walmsley, a representative from Kansas City, has been in effect less than one year. In that time there has been collected, from license fees and fines, nearly $50,000, now in the custody of J. H. Rhodes, state warden, and available for use as salaries and expenses for deputies and for legal services in prosecutions. The license fees were contributed by hunters in every county in the state the cost in each case being $1.15. Outdoor Didn't Cure. Miss Grace Hughes, daughter of Mrs. B. C. Hughes, died here recently of consumption. Miss Hughes is the young woman about whom so much was written a year ago as having been cured of tuberculosis by sleeping in the open air. The disease first developed 18 months ago. Upon advice of a local physician Miss Hughes spent last summer in a tent in the rear of the Hughes residence in Carthage. At the close of the summer, presuming she had been cured, she resumed her abode in the house. About two months ago she began suddenly to decline. As soon as the weather became warm she went back to her tent but it was too late. She was 19 years of age. Saint Leader to Live There. Frederick M. Smith, the future president of the Reorganized Latter Day Saints' church, will soon make independence his home. He has begun excavating for a residence in South Crysler avenue, which he will occupy with his family. His present home is at Lamoni, Ia. Mr. Smith is the first counselor to his father, President Joseph Smith, and associate editor of the Saints' Herald, the church paper published at Lamoni. At the recent general conference in Independence President Joseph Smith received a revelation designating his son, Frederick M. Smith, as his successor whenever he himself became unable to fill the duties of the office. Pardoned by the Governor. Gov. Folk commuted the penitentiary sentence of Clay Secoy of Pemiscot county, and the prisoner was released from the institution. Secoy was sentenced in February, 1905, to two years in the penitentiary for assault to kill. The prosecuting attorney and other officers of Pemiscot county petitioned for the release from the penitentiary, which was granted on condition that Secoy obey the laws. Students Fight with Showmen. Several hundred University of Missouri students engaged in a fight with showmen from the Cole Brothers' circus and as a result Maynard M. McDole, a freshman from Craig, Mo., was shot in the head and is in a critical condition in the Parker hospital at Columbia and several others are slightly hurt. Large Deal in Sheep. Johnson Bros., of Mexico, Mo., sold 50,000 pounds of wool and 7,000 sheep to J. B. Hopkins, of Adair county. This is one of the largest deals of its kind ever consummated in Audrain county. Gas Found Near Marceline. The Landreth-Carmichael Drill company struck gas one mile west of Marceline at a depth of 240 feet. The pressure is strong enough to force the water out of the pipes and to make considerable noise in escaping. Further prospecting will be rapidly pushed. To Make a Woman Happy A Humansville sage has observed that one way to make a woman happy is to bring her a potted plant a distance of 1,000 miles that she could buy around the corner for 15 cents. Act of Vandalism. A form of depredations without precedent in the mining district was discovered at the Jewell mine, one mile from Joplin, recently. The entire underground equipment of the mine had been completely disorganized during the night and three men, said to be Harry Morris, C. Cranmer and another unknown, are being hunted by the constabulary on a charge of malicious destruction of property. When the day force entered the ground it was discovered that several hundred feet of tracking had been torn up, the air pipes to the machine drills disjointed and smashed, picks, shovels and other tools twisted an ruined the column pipe in the shaft uncoupled and the working clothing of the miners either destroyed or hidden under broken earth. The motive for the deed is unknown. Missouri Teachers' Election: The Missouri Society of Teachers of Mathematics and Science, which closed its annual session at Columbia recently, elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Dr. J. W. Withers, principal of the Teachers' college, St. Louis; vice president and chairman of mathematics division, E. M. Bainter, assistant principal of Manual Training high school, Kansas City; vice president and chairman of science division, F. N. Peters, of Central high school, Kansas City; general secretary and treasurer, Dr. L. D. Ames, of the University of Missouri; secretary of the science division, Prof. B. G. Shackelford, of Cape Girardeau normal school; secretary of the mathematics division, Prof. George R. Dream, of Rolla school of mines. Killed in a Fishing Camp "Al" Mullenix was stabbed to death near Low Ground, in the southeast part of Linn county, by Charles Mills Charles and Bert Mills and two other men, from Unionville, were camping on the Chariton river fishing Mullenix and "HI" Hatfield went to the camp. It is said the two engaged in a quarrel and Charles Mills interfered, whereupon Mullenix shot at him but missed. Bert Mills then knocked Mullenix down with a club and Charles stabbed him. The Mills brothers surrendered to the sheriff. The Elusive Dollar. Just to learn how often a dollar would change hands in 30 days, and how many debts it would pay in that time, the Mexican Ledger put a dollar bill in circulation with a tag attached, asking each person who received it to put his name on the tag, with the date and hour. In ten hours after leaving the ledger office, it was handed in to pay for a subscription. The tag showed that in ten hours it had been in the possession of 25 different people. Capt. Allen Resigns. Captain J. W. Allen, corporation clerk in the office of Secretary of State John E. Swanger, has resigned. Captain Allen is a democrat who was retained by Mr. Swanger on account of his familiarity with the corporation laws. He has served under three administrations and resigns to accept a place under the municipal government in St. Louis where he resides. Secretary of State Swanger has appointed Dudley Calfee, of Milan, to succeed Captain Allen. A. Penitentiary Romance. As the result of a visit to the penitentiary last fall, Miss May McCormick formerly of Kansas City, is to be married to Harry Murphy of Barry County who was recently released from the penitentiary after finishing the three-fourths time of a two-year sentence for burglary and larceny. The story is that Miss McCormick went to Jefferson City on an excursion and while visiting the penitentiary chanced to meet Murphy. It was a case of love at first sight with both. May Mean a New Road. A special dispatch from Washington announcing the passage by the house of the bill to allow the building of a second bridge across the Missouri river at Kansas City has revived the story of another electric line to the up-river towns. While the Metropolitan street railway has made a survey for a line to St. Joseph by way of Platte City, touching at Leavenworth and Aitchison President Corrigan declares the company has no present plans of building the line. Pardon for a Free Man. For the purpose of restoring William Griffith, of Pierce City, to his rights of citizenship, Gov. Folk has pardoned him. Griffith has been a member of the police force at Pierce City three years and has made an excellent officer. He was recently elected city marshal. It was then found that he was ineligible, as his citizenship was not restored after serving a term in the penitentiary from 1880 to 1883. On Behalf of Lehman. Miss Lehman, of St. Louis, daughter of Julius Lehman, convicted of bodding in St. Louis and sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years, has been making an effort to secure a commutation for her father. Clemency has been recommended by Police Commissioner A. C. Maroney, who, as assistant circuit attorney, helped prosecute the case; by quite a number of St. Louisans and by Deputy Warden R. E. See. It is also understood that Pardon Attorney Mosby will recommend a commutation. A. F. and A. M Of Missouri and its Jurisdiction. GRAND LODGE. GRAND LODGE OF MISSOURI Officers. C. G.

We must congratulate the police and detectives for cleaning the several streets from loafers, rounders and the dirty-dozen. Still they have found a new corner, on Jefferson and Lawton avenues. They should be kept on the move and not allowed to stand on the corner blocking the streets and raising their hats to girls and women that they know nothing about. A drug store on Goode avenue, the customers of which are two-thirds colored people, and who really keep up the drug store, refuses to sell soda to colored ladies and gentlemen. This should not be, still I am glad of it. If the Negroes of that portion of the city have no more respect than to spend their money with such Negro-haters, we do not sympathize with them. Where the Negro is not respected by white men or women, they should not put one cent in their hands. Do without or go to some place where you are respected.

He has twenty-five years' of experience in the grocer business, and thoroughly understands the wants of the patrons. His success is due to his courteous treatment of all to come to his store.

Men and women of our race should patronize him as he patronizes our business men and firms. See his ad elsewhere in this paper.

Cole (ex-pastor of First Baptist church of this city) as their pastor. Rev. Cole was present and accepted the call, Trouble which has been growing since the organization of the new church reached a very critical point Monday at the call, and Thursday evening, the 17th, at prayer meeting. Mrs. Sarah E. Stokes, clerk of the church, made written request for an advisory council. Rev. E. Calvin Cole, unanimously called to the pastorate of the Thessalonian Baptist church, will preach Sunday morning at 11 o'clock at their temporary place of worship, Thirteenth and Lucas avenue. Services will be continued at the Lucas avenue place each Sunday morning at 11 o'clock and Thursday evenings until they move into their new church house, corner of Jefferson and Scott avenues, Sunday evening May 27, at 8 o'clock. The installation service will take place the first Sunday in June in the afternoon at 3 o'clock. The pastors, churches and the public are cordially invited to be present on the first Sunday in June at 3 o'clock. All creeds, professions and trades will be welcomed on this occasion. The members of the church are getting along nicely. Please remember the wedding bells. The members of the choir will please attend rehearsals on Saturday night. Miss Ella Rucks sang a beautiful solo last Sunday, at the evening service. The board of managers of the St. Louis Colored Orphans' Home announces to the public the celebration of their fifth anniversary of Orphans' day, Sunday, May 20, at 2 p. m. The free-will offering on that day from the churches, Sunday school, all benevolent orders, male and female, and from everyone charitably inclined, has been one of the methods of raising money to help reduce the debt on the home. There is only $2,000 remaining unpaid, and we hope to raise that this year, and call on everyone to assist. If any club or organization has failed to receive a notice, we earnestly beg them to consider themselves among those invited, as we have made strenuous efforts to reach all organizations, but may not have succeeded in so doing. We will present as a souvenir a handsomely-framed picture of the home—16x20—to any church and organization which, together with their various auxiliaries counted in, will give the largest donation on that day. We will also give a large cabinet picture of the home to any benevolent order, club or individual giving the sum of $5. All organizations will place their offering in an envelope with their name and amount plainly written on it. The needs of the home are many, and they can only be supplied by the generosity of the public. We desire to make this orphanage one worthy of the Colored citizens of St. Louis; therefore, come and do your part in making it so. He who giveth to the poor and helpless lendeth to the Lord. Make your loan on that day a worthy one. MRS. J. W.

On the 13th of February last we published an account of the Buffaloes' ball, and the Palladium sold like hot cakes.

Use Pickett’s Laxative Viburnum for Female Trouble. icteric Miss Sarrows Tells How Mrs. Pinkham's Advice Helps Working Girls. Girls who work are particularly susceptible to female disorder, especially those who are obliged to stand on their feet from morning until night in stores or factories. ```markdown ``` Mari Abby F. Barrows Day in and day out the girl toils, and she is often the bread-winner of the family. Whether she is sick or well, whether it rains or shines, she must get to her place of employment, perform the duties exacted of her—smile and be agreeable. Among this class the symptoms of female diseases are early manifest by weak and aching backs, pain in the lower limbs and lower part of the stomach. In consequence of frequent wetting of the feet, periods become painful and irregular, and frequently there are faint and dizzy spells, with loss of appetite, until life is a burden. All these symptoms point to a derangement of the female organism which can be easily and promptly cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Miss Abby F. Barrows, Nelsonville, Athens Co. Ohio, tells what this great medicine did for her. She writes: "I feel it my duty to tell you the good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier have done for me. Before I took them I was very nervous, had dull headaches, pains in back, and periods were irregular. I had been to several doctors, and they did me no good. "Your medicine has made me well and strong. I can do most any of work without complaint, and my periods are all right. I am in better health than I ever was, and I know it is all due to your remedies. I recommend your advice and medicine to all who suffer." It is to such girls that Mrs. Pinkham holds out a helping hand and extends a cordial invitation to correspond with her. She is daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years has been advising sick women free of charge. Her long record of success in treating woman's ills makes her letters of advice of untold value to every ailing working girl. Address, Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. IN OTHER LANDS.

His Own Business. This anecdote was told by John Graham Brooks: "One of the brightest replies I ever heard came from a lad in my neighborhood, who was being quizzed about his father's accomplishments, and was asked: 'What does your father know, anyway?' There was no hesitation in the answer: 'I don't believe he knows much of anything except his own business; but he knows that.'" Lemon — Her father.—Los Angeles Herald. TRANSFORMATIONS. Curious Results When Coffee Drink- ing Is Abandoned. It is almost as hard for an old coffee toper to quit the use of coffee as it is for a whisky or tobacco fiend to break off, except that the coffee user can quit coffee and take up Postum Food Coffee without any feeling of a loss of the morning beverage, for when Postum is well boiled and served with cream, it is really better in point of flavor than most of the coffee served nowadays, and to the taste of the connoisseur it is like the flavor of fine Java. A great transformation takes place in the body within ten days or two weeks after coffee is left off and Postum Food Coffee used, for the reason that the polson to the nerves has been discontinued and in its place is taken a liquid that contains the most powerful elements of nourishment. It is easy to make this test and prove these statements by changing from coffee to Postum Food Coffee. "There's a reason."

GOLDEN TEXT.—Be not drunk with wine wherein is excess."—Eph. 5:18. TIME.—Imprisonment of John after nearly two years of preaching took place in March or April, A. D. 23, and he was beheaded just a year later, at the age of 32. PLACE.—Jesus in Gallilee with disciples. John in prison in Machaerus, east of the Dead sea, where probably Herod's feast took place. Comment and Suggestive Thought. V. 14. "King Herod." Mark, for courtesy, styles him king. "Heard of Him." Heard of Jesus, who was attracting so much attention by His wondrous works in Galilee. "His name was spread abroad." The apostles were journeying through Galilee, thus multiplying Jesus' influence and extending His fame. "John the Baptist . . . the dead." Herod was at least nominally a Sadduce, and professed to believe neither in spirits nor a resurrection. V. 15. "Others said." Others entertained various opinions about Jesus. With these they tried to calm Herod's troubled conscience. "Elias." Elijah. "A prophet, or as one." A new prophet, or as one bearing great resemblance to the old prophets. V. 17. "Herd him himself. "Not moved by matters of state, but for purely personal reasons. "Laid hold upon John." Arrested him. "For Herodias' sake." Because the crime for which John reproached him was with and on account of Herodias. V. 18. "John had said unto Herod." He had repeatedly besought the tetrarch to forsake his sin, undoubtedly assuring him that even for such as he, there was forgiveness and restoration from God upon true repentance "It is not lawful for thee to have her." He was her uncle, and it was not lawful for those so near of kin the marry; moreover he had a wife and she a husband living at the time. V. 19. "Had a quarrel." Rev. Ver., "Set herself against him." That is, she became the sworn enemy of the Baptist. She strongly "desired to kill him," but "could not," because she lacked personal authority; and Herod would not order his execution. V. 20. "Herd feared John." Matthew says he also feared the people for they counted John a great prophet. "Observed him." "Kept him safe" out of the reach of Herodias' mailer "Heard him." Herod was a man of keen intellect, and it seems that Herod often called the prisoner from the dungeon to the palace, which was under the same roof, that he might listen to him. He "did many things," or "was much perplexed." Perhaps he abandoned some sins, and began the practice of some virtues. V. 21. "A convenient day." A day which brought Herodias opportunity for executing her purpose. "Lords, high captains, chief estates." The three classes mentioned were the great men of the court, of the army and of the province. V. 22. "The daughter of Herodias." Salome. "Came in and danced." In the corrupt age of Herod a feast among high dignitaries would be incomplete without the coming of one or more professional dancing-girls in dainty costumes and with voluptuous dances, commonly accompanied by tambourines or tinkling bells, to entertain men of debased instincts. But for one of high birth to enter the banqueting hall, was considered a great shame, hence the strong expression, "herself came in." "Pleased Herod." He fancied that Salome honored him by degrading herself. Had he been sober, he would have felt horrified. V. 23. "He swear." He confirmed his words by repeated oaths. "Unto the half of my kingdom." A foolishly extravagant expression commonly used by kings, but not meant to be literally interpreted. V. 24. "Went forth." Left the scene of feasting to find her mother, who was in another part of the castle. "The head of John the Baptist." This request Herod would be warranted in refusing. John's head was of more value than the half of his kingdom, and under no just law was it his to give. V. 25. "Straightway with haste." Undoubtedly Herodias counseled great hate of all parties, lest the girl become too horrified to proffer the request, and lest Herod, when sobered, refuse to grant it. "By and by." immediately. "In a charger." In a platter a dish. V. 26. "Exceedingly sorry." Herod's sorrow was probably as deep as he was capable of feeling, but was not, as the sequel shows, deep enough to cause him to refuse the infamous request. "Oath's sake." In the original the word "oath" is plural, indicating that he had made the promise repeatedly. "For their sakes." Lest he should appear to them to be fickle and vacillating. "Reject her." Refuse to grant her request. Practical Points. V. 17. It is no excuse for sin that it was done at the instigation or for the sake of another.—Ezek. 18:20. V. 18. If hearing the truth does not make us better, it makes us worse.—Jas. 4:17. V. 22. Frivolous minds find pleasure in frivolous amusement.—Prov 15:21. V. 33. Many barter the whole of the Kingdom of Heaven for a temporary pleasure.—Mark 8:36. V. 27.

TRUE SOUTHERN CHIVALRY Kentucky Colonel Didn't Apologize, But He Came Very Near Doing It. Many stories have been told of southern chivalry, but the palm appears to go to a story told by a former governor of Kentucky while visiting Philadelphia recently. According to the narrator, a genuine Kentucky colonel boarded a street car which was very crowded, and somehow he stepped on the foot of a very pretty course, the woman expected the colonel to apologize, just as did everybody else who heard her give a mouselake squelch when the colonel's foot came down. And she looked as though she expected an apology, but the colonel, divining her thought, doffed his hat and said: "No, madam, I'm not going to apologize. When the good Lord was so gracious as to make women so beautiful and charming and with such wonderfully small feet that a man has to tramp on them "o find them, then I don't think that an apology—" The compliment was too graceful for the woman to resist, and all that followed was a smiling acknowledgment of the colonel's gallant speech. BOY'S HEAD ONE SOLID SORE. Hair All Came Out—Under Doctor Three Months and No Better—Cuticura Remedies Works Wonders. Mr. A. C. Barnett, proprietor of a general store in Avard, Oklahoma, tells in the following grateful letter how Cuticura cured his son of a terrible eczema. "My little boy had eczema. His head was one solid sore, all over his scalp; his hair all came out, and he suffered very much. I had a physician treat him, but at the end of three months he was no better. I remembered that the Cuticura Remedies had cured me, and after giving him two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, according to directions, and using Cuticura Soap and Ointment on him daily, his eczema left him, his hair grew again, and he has never had any eczema since. We use the cuticura Resolvent, the eczema keep our skin soft and healthy. I cheerfully recommend the Cuticura Remedies for all cases of eczema. A. C. Barnett, Mar. 30, 1905." Each to His Taste. "Did you see where the chaplain general of that aristocratic patriotic society prayed for all those who have not the same ancestry as themselves?" "Well, that's a matter of taste.

Don't Poison Baby. FORTY YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them "poison." The definition of "narcotic" is: "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, coma, convulsions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed.

Presided Over by Mrs; S. A. Collins, S. G; V.; Mrs. Julia Gibbs, M. E. Q. Mrs. C. Jones, M. E; Q.; Mrs. Josephine Brown, M. E. Q.; Mrs. Katie Pitts, M. Q.; Mrs. Bain Pitts, V. P.; the Grand Leader Juvenile, East St. Louis, and Hon. J. W. Wheeler, Editor of the Palladium, On the night of May 6, Dr. D. L. Martin, S. M., in company with his wife, boarded the Dixie Flyer for St. Louis, over the Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis, and Illinois Central Railroad. The run was perfect from start to finish. We had no sleeper, but yet we slept all the way. This was due to the fact that we were seated in a splendid chair coach, which was not crowded, and we simply had things to ourselves, and we say here, if you are going to St. Louis try this route once. At the Union Station we were met by a committee who had a carriage waiting. Among this committee was one old friend and brother, John W. Wheeler. God bless John, for we have been brothers for 25 years. Another was Mrs. S. A. Collins, the grand queen of the west, at whose palatial residence we had been assigned. Orders to move were given, and the up-to-date carriage donated for the occasion by Mr. Anderson Russell, an up-to-date undertaker, of St. Louis, did move, and in a few moments we alighted in front of 3220 Hickory street. Breakfast was served in great style by Sister Collins and her kind assistants, Mrs. Susie Corbett and Mrs. L. Ramons. A hearty welcome extended and the keys turned over to us. At night the carriage called for us again and we were driven to the hall, where a splendid program was carried through, which consisted of speeches by prominent women and men of the order in St. Louis, as well as one hour's address by the Supreme Master. Dr. Martin is a talented speaker, and if you give him time he will let you know what he is driving at. His address was full of wit, and kept the house in on uproar of laughter. Speaking of the many trials through which the order had passed during the 18 years existence, and of the falling by the wayside of even his own cabinet of supreme officers, he said that they all turned Dr. Martin and his order out into the commons to die just like one would turn out an old worn out mule. But that death was so slow coming some of the great ones came and examined his pulse and pronounced him very much alive, and that the other day Sir J. W. Randolph, G. M., of Tennessee, closed up his annual tour over the state at Nashville, and that after hearing his report many of those whom had left us began to clamor to return. His remarks were pointed and he displayed a thoughtful knowledge of what was going on. He assured the members that the order was for unity, love and charity. That the officers were the servants and not masters; that a child could lead a horse to water, but a thousand men could not make him drink. He urged each one to unite in this grand cause and work to build up. He showed that there were no salaried officers and that when a lodge or council received its charter that the presiding officer at once become a member of the Supreme Lodge, and was amenable thereto for all actions. That we did not create circuits for men or women out of work to go from place to place, show their high authority and draw out money put there to meet the legal demands of the order. He said a lodge or council should learn to control their own affairs. At once, he said, we have a great field of raw material in which to work, and he explained that a hustling organizer could make it a good business. He will appoint several new organizers as well as a supreme grand queen of the western states; also supreme grand master of the same. These states comprise Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. These two officers will have power to appoint local organizers and to visit annually all the L. & C. & J. in their district of states, and also to make special visits when sent for. The Supreme Queen will look after councils and juveniles, and the Supreme Grand District Master will look after lodges, but he can visit a council of Juveniles if sent for. He said to new organizers do not act like others have done by going into communities organizing and have a big time, then stay there till the people become tired of them and break the new organization up. The best way, he said, was to go and set up your lodge or council, go back till you have finished your work and thoroughly instructed your officers and members, then go to the next place. But if at any time you get an invitation to come back on a visit go, but don't push yourselves off on the L & C, simply to draw out their money that was collected for other purposes. The Supreme Master said that the annual tax of 50 cents per member, was to defray the running expenses of the order. He granted a special dispensation of councils and juveniles that had been taxed to defray his expenses on this visit. The program from start to finish consisted of a meeting Monday night at Widow Son's hall. This meeting was attended by many of the most prominent men and women of the order in the west. Speeches were delivered by Mrs. S. A. Collins, S. N. G.; Mrs. Mamie Buckner; paper by Mrs. Julia Gibbs, subject, "Unity, Love and Charity"; address, Mrs. C. Jones; address, Mrs. J. Brown; introduction of S. M. by Hon. J. W. Wheeler; address by Rev. W. B. Stewart; W. H. Fields, master of ceremonies. On Tuesday night the palatial residence of Mrs. Ada Harris was decorated from front to back and every door thrown open to visitors who came to banquet the supreme master and wife. A program, consisting of speeches, was first carried out, Daughter S. A. Collins being the toast mistress. She called on Dr. Scott, who responded in eloquent style. The next called being Dr. McCllenl, who did honor to the occasion, then Mr. Carter, an official of the K. P., who paid a special tribute to Sister Collins. After speech-making closed Sir W. H. Fields gave orders to march to the lower story where a splendid repast was served in courses. All enjoyed the banquet to the highest and left for home on the owl. Wednesday afternoon the guides gave orders to move on to East St. Louis. We arrived there about 3 p.m. Our first stop was at the residence of Sister C. Jones, M. E. Q. She had prepared a home dinner that was so wholesome that most of the guests made themselves sick by acting the glutton. Many thanks, Sister Jones. At 8:30 we went to the hall and found waiting 100 Knights and Daughters of Africa The meeting was presided over by the S. M., assisted by Daughters Gibbs and Collins. The meeting lasted two hours, and all went home feeling benefited. "The D. L. Martin Juvenile met at 2 p.m. Thursday. The visit closed with a visit to Belleville, Ill. Here Daughter J. Brown is in full control. Particulars of this meeting will be seen elsewhere. The supreme master and wife left for home Saturday morning. Many sad hearts witnessed the departure. All felt that the effects of the visit will be lasting. The S. M. promised to return in six years, provided that all present will stand firm till that time and be ready to repeat the same programme. All said: "I will endeavor so to do, God being our helper." It was ordered that the proceedings be first printed by Sir J. W. Wheeler in the St. Louis Palladium.
