QUEEN VICTORIA
King Alfonso Changes Court
THE WEDDING OF THE MARRIED GIRL
One result of the recent domestic spat between King Alfonso and Queen Victoria will be a complete revision of the cast iron etiquette of the Spanish court, the first act of which began with the discharge of several court attaches.
Queen Victoria, an English girl, objected to surveillance by the Spanish court shortly after her marriage to Alfonso. She complained bitterly to the king, but the etiquette was of long standing and Alfonso was afraid to set aside the "sacred precedents."
The upshot was that the queen recently returned to her mother on the Isle of Wight, with the declaration that when the king put into effect the reforms she demanded she would return. She said the court was too
SOCIETY GIRL A
[Image of a person with a bald head and a neutral expression, wearing a simple shirt and pants.]
Miss Vera P. Gilbert, the only daughter of C. P. H. Gilbert of Ochre Point and New York, who is a debutante, very attractive and holds the record for the most perfectly gowned young woman at Newport, swam from Spouting Rock Beach to Hazard's Beach, one and three-quarter miles, in one hour and ten seconds. This beats all records made by other so-
CAUGHT A SEA BAT
One of the rarest specimens of the fish kingdom known to waters contiguous to the North Carolina coast was captured in a seine at Masonboro sound Monday by William Hewlett, a fisherman. The fish is what is called "the sea bat," and it is a perfect reproduction of a leather wing bat on a large scale. The fish is about fifteen inches long and about thirty inches across the back.
Strange to state, it had a thin, threadlike tail about fifteen inches in length and on each side of the rear appendage were two perfect formed gloved feet, with a smaller diversion having the exact appearance of a

"tussy" and when Alfonso, himself not very conventional, sided with the court, she "packed up and left." Alfonso went to England to plead with her, but found her obdurate. He soon discovered that it was a choice between adhering to precedent or losing his wife, and he showed his mettle by deciding that the grandees of the court and the long list of supernumeraries whose jobs for years had been considered sacred would have to shift for themselves. From the most formal household in the world, the royal establishment of Spain promises to become the most democratic. Court attaches and cabinet members are still remonstrating, but Alfonso has set out on his precedent smashing ventures and will not be stopped.

She was accompanied in the lifeboat by "Joe" Boyer, swimming master.
thumb, with the other part of the hand mittened. The mouth of the strange specimen was about five inches across and on each side of the mouth or the under side of the body there were five "strainers" or holes through which the fish is said to rid itself of refuse products resulting from the forage it picks up at the bottom of the sea. The top of the fish was a dark slate color and the under part of the body was white. One old negro fisherman more than seventy years old stated that this was only the second specimen of the sea bat he had ever seen in his long experience as a fisherman. The specimen, which had a truly uncanny appearance, will probably be sent to the state museum at Raleigh.
THE APPEAL.
Washington Apartment Houses Contain a Cosmopolitan Crowd.
"How many states are represented in the roster of the occupants of the house?" the clerk at one of the biggest Washington apartment houses was asked, and the reply was: "It would be much easier to tell how many are not. We have them from nearly every state in the union."
A more categorical elaboration of this assertion would be uninteresting. It is enough to say that one of the big apartment houses numbers among its occupants, when congress is in session, both senators from Idaho, a senator from Oregon, a senator from California, representatives from Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio, the secretary of the French legation and scores of other persons equally as diversified with respect to residential antecedents. Another has a senator from Colorado, a senator from Missouri, and representatives from the following states: Ohio, Texas, Colorado, Missouri, Florida, Indiana, North Carolina, New York, Illinois and Minnesota, as well as the counsel of legation of Colombia and other people, official and unofficial, from north, south, east and west. Another apartment house contains two legations, those of Guatemala and Panama, the counsel of the Japanese embassy, a senator from Maryland, one from Utah, and representatives from Illinois, New York, Ohio and Nebraska. The Chilean and Venezuelan legations are in apartment houses, and nearly a score of diplomats have residences in apartment houses. Statesmen as rarely find themselves neighbors with others from their own state as do people not in public life.
Whether the natives of various states are distributed among the apartment houses in the same proportion that they are distributed in the city at large it is difficult to tell. It is hard enough to keep track of the number of apartment houses, which are springing up like mushrooms in various parts of the city, and such a task is hereby side-stopped, because there are already figures enough in this article. Mathematics give some people a headache, and this is not a lesson in arithmetic.
ANIMALS SENT TO PRESIDENT.
Glfta Made Are Mostly Sent to the Zoological Park.
No president's family has been the recipient of as many animal pets as has that of President Roosevelt. This is undoubtedly due to the widespread knowledge of the president's fondness for hunting and his interest in everything pertaining to brute creation. With few exceptions the animals presented to the president or his children have been sent to the Zoological park in Washington.
Gifts of wild and domestic animals from admirers in foreign countries have not been infrequent. One of the most interesting presents of this kind was that of King Menelik of Abyssinia, who sent the president an Arabian zebra and two ostriches as a token of his esteem and admiration for Mr. Roosevelt.
The American animals received at the White House range from white rats and mice to a cinnamon bear or a mountain lion. The most treasured pets of the younger members of the family are their ponies. A Mexican double yellow-head parrot was the favorite of Miss Alice before she married, and the cries of "Alice" by the bird filled the White House for many days after his mistress had left. There is no home in Washington so full of pets of high and low degrees as is the White House.
Cleared Up the Situation
It happened the night of a big reception at the White House last winter. The local livery stable men were preparing to annex big chunks of musty kale, and they were busy rushing carriages hither and thither. On such occasions the excitement is intense, for these kale-annexing souls try to make one carriage do the work of 20 or thereabouts. The driver of one of these get-rich-quick carriages received an order from his stable foreman to go "and carry the Cuban minister to the White House."
With a crack of the whip and a careful assembling of the relns he prepared to obey the order, when a clerk in the establishment shouted, real gently, at him, and told him to hurry around to the Rochambeau.
The conflicting orders worried the not over brilliant brain of the colored man and hurt his feelings mightily. So he called a fellow employee to the after his team and proceeded to the office, where his employer was literally surrounded by carriage orders and chaos.
"See yere, boss," his voice meandered, "I is suah disturbed 'bout dese yere ordabs. Mr. B. J. say 'Go an g!n de Peculiah ministah, an' de clerk say 'Hurry 'roun' to de Rochambeau ministah. Now, I want fors t' know who is de ministah I is to gitt."
The most valuable work the driver did that night was to give occasion for the good laugh which followed. The surcharged air cleared and every order went out on time.
To Save Historic Old Steps.
Efforts are being made to preserve for the United States government the old steps at the north entrance of the ancient Sirth Street railroad station in Washington, which is now being demolished. The steps have been trod by every president of the United States and before being placed at the entrance to the station they were in service at the Indian Queen tavern, a favorite haunt of Washington.

There can be no question that China appreciates America's many acts of special friendliness in the past, such as her initiative in securing pledges in respect to China's integrity, her activity in inducing the belligerents to agree to restrict the zone of hostilities in the last war, and, latest, the return of the indemnity.

CLOSING UP SQUARE
GROUP OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS NEARLY COMPLETED.
When Finished, National Capital Will Have Most Imposing Structures on This Continent, If Not in the World.
The doors of a new luxurious office building will swing open for 92 United States senators on their return to Washington in December. The last stone has been set in the monumental structure. Apart from many costly furnishings and fixtures, the building costs the
The doors of a new luxurious office building will swing open for 32 United States senators on their return to Washington in December. The last stone has been set in the monumental structure. Apart from many costly furnishings and fixtures, the building costs the government $3,250,000.
The interior construction is well under way. The furniture has been contracted for at $80,000. That means, in round numbers, something like $800 for each of the suites of two rooms. Moreover, there is a big subway between this office building and the capitol, through which the senators can travel without exposure to inclement weather. It is among the possibilities that rubber-tired jaunting cars, driven by stored electricity, will be run to and fro for senatorial convenience.
Architecturally the building is an ornament to that legislative corner of the federal city. But it is much more than that, for the marble pile stands as next to the last to be completed before the magnificent square of public buildings on Capitol hill will be a reality. It will easily be the most splendid group of imposing public buildings on this continent and, it may be, in the world
The capitol, which had cost $13,500,000 up to 1896, and which has been renovated at an expense of $700,000 more since then, occupies the western side of the square. It does not fill in the whole of the space by any means, but looms forth in the midst of the capitol grounds as the most notable of all the many public buildings in Washington. Some time the east front of the old portion of the capitol building may be refaced with marble, so as to improve the architectural appearance and symmetry. That it is estimated, will cost $1,200,000. Otherwise the capitol, which has been a growth in construction for about a half-century, is wellnigh completed.
On the south side of the square stands the new house office building of marble. It cost $3,100,000. It was opened to the representatives, with its 400 rooms, last December. Workmen are still putting finishing touches upon it, including outside "treatment." It is almost an exact counterpart, in its exterior, of the senate office building, which is directly opposite, but on the north side and outside of the capitol grounds. The house building fronts on B street south, and the senate building on B street north, as the streets are called in Washington. It is a distance of four city blocks between the two. That is the width of the capitol grounds. Skirting one-half of the eastern boundary of the grounds is the library of congress, claimed by some to be the most beautiful building of its size in the world. It cost $6,500,000.
The last structure contemplated for the square is a temple of justice, which will probably cost at least $5,000,000 more. It is to occupy a great square just opposite the northwestern half of the capitol boundary, and it must be a counterpart of the library of congress. Speaker Cannon and Senator Hale, supported by friendly sentiment in both branches of congress, are supposed to be contemplating an appropriation for that new building at the coming session, now that the senate office building is completed.
Come from Everywhere.
The people of Washington are people from all parts of the United States. In a limited degree they are people from every corner of the world, but the foreign-born population here is not as large in proportion to the native-born population as it is in many other cities. It was in 1900 only 7.2 per cent. in comparison with 37 per cent. for New York, 35.1 per cent. for Boston, 34.6 for Chicago, 22.8 per cent. for Philadelphia, 19.4 per cent. for St. Louis and 12.5 per cent. for Baltimore. On the other hand, only 46.4 per cent. of native-born Washingtonians were born in the District of Columbia, while 74.7 per cent. of Baltimore's population are Marylanders, 50.9 of Boston's people born in Massachusetts, 55 of New York's people born in the Empire state, and 65.3 of Philadelphia's people born in Pennsylvania. These percentages show a striking comparison with the Washington percentage, when the large foreign-born population of Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia and New York and the small foreign-born population of Washington are taken into consideration. Charleston, S. C., affords a much more striking comparison. No less than 90.3 of its inhabitants are natives of South Carolina.
Religious Works in Dialect.
A missionary deaconess in Liberia has edited in native dialect a book containing the Ten Commandments, the Apostles' Creed, the doxology and a number of the best-known hymns. The book is not only the first book published in the dialect, but the first successful attempt to make it a written language.

THE SUPREME COURT.
A prominent Virginian recently
said to a reporter for the Washing.
ton Herald:
“Taft is strong with the conserva.
tive Democrats of the State, and he
will get a large number of such votes,
‘The one factor that will tell against
Bryan and cost him thousands of
votes, not only in West Virginia, but
throughout the country,, is the know-
ledge that the United States Supreme
Court will be practically reorganized
during the next four years; and the
country is not yet teady to intrust a
man with Bryan's record to appoint
Judges to our highest court.”
We commend the above statement
to the serious attention of the: Afro.
American voter. There ts little diff-
culty in predicting what sort of an
institution the Supreme Court would
be, under Bryan’s manipulation, If
he should be elected, it would be
mainly through the instrumentality
‘of the solid southern yote—the great-
er part of his electoral vote would
come from that quarter—and his ap-
pointees would certainly hail from the
same section. The main effort of such

t HON. JAMES’S. SHERMAN,
Next Vice President of the United States.
‘As a Nation our duty compels that by every constitutional and rea-
sonable meats the material and educational condition of the Afro-American,
be advanced. ‘This we owe to ourselves as well as to them. As the Tesult
of a course of events that can never be reversed, they are a part of our

our inisfortune,

-@ court would be to overturn to the
full extent all the legislation of the
Republican party.
In this connection it should tbe
remembered that there are many
weak-kneed Republicans who think
that much of the legislation enacted
during the reconstruction period is 2
mistake, and that some are ready tc
admit that even the 15th amendment
was a mistake. Thus far, there has
boen no serious attempt ‘to onforec
the provisions of the amendments,
but Judge Taft has publicly and em
phatically declared that he favor:
such enforcement.
It seoms that the above should in
sure to Judge Taft the earnest sup
port and the vote of every Afro
American,
THE LABORER AND HIS JOB.
Judge Taft recently said:
“Another point that I distinctly de
Qided in those cases was that no
temporary restraining order or injunc
tion could issue to prevent a man’s
leaving the employ of a railway, and
therefore that no injunctions could
issue to restrain men from acting in
concert and going on a strike,”
On the contrary it is a well-known
fact that in most, if not ail of the
Southern states, there are laws which
virtually make it a felon for any
employée to leave his job. Such is
the true intent and scope of the law,
although that intent is disguised as
much as possible. The Democrats
rule and control in every one of ine
Southern states and, in these states,
the condition of not omly the labor.
ing man, but the laboring woman and
the laboring child is deplorable. In
‘Texas, laboring’ women are sent to
the rockpile.
And, moreover, as to Mr. Bryan
himself, he still entertains hopes of
cutting’ the wage of the laborer in
half, for he said in Philadelphia a
few days ago, explaining why he_was
not insisting now as he did eight and
twelve years ago upon free coinage
of silver and the 16-to-1 proposition,
‘that unexpected discoveries of gold
have given the increase which was
demanded by the Republican party as
well as the Democratic party,
In other words, Mr. Bryan believes
in the policy of the liquor dealer, who
whenever he drew out a pint of
whisky, poured in a quart of water.
THE PRESIDENT IN THE CAM
PAIGN.
We have not one particle of sympa
thy for the outery that has been made
because the: President has taken an
active part in the political campaign.
We care little for the fact that for-
mer Presidents havo acted differently,
and fail to see that Mr. Roosevelt ig
bound to follow their example. The
‘President is a citizen of the coum.
try, ard more accurately informed as
to its conditions and needs than, per-
haps, any other citizen, and it there-
fore becomes his sacred duty to use
‘every means in his power to insure
prosperity and ‘prevent disaster.
Under the old Roman law it was made
the especial duty of the consul, to
see that the republic sustained no
damage, and the President is follow.
ing a precedent much eartier than the
times of Washington, And the patron
saint of the Democracy, Thomas Jet.
ferson, as is well known, in the mat:
ter of the purchase of the Louisiana
Territory, acted in violation of what
the people thought was his duty and
the limitations of his office. But the
peope vindicated Jefferson just as
they will Mr. Roosevelt. Besides, wr
‘Bryan provoked the attack,
“Can you think of anything dirtier
or nastier than eating with, a nig-
ger?” “I would rather eat out of a
trough with a hog than to eat with
a nigger. I would rather drink pot
Mauer out of a pot with a hound pup
than eat with a nigger.” The Dem
ceratic Senator, Jeff Davis of Arkan-
sas.
If anyone supposes that the Afro
Americans of the country have any
intention of deserting the Republican
party, he is badly mistaken. The
Afro-American vote will go as it has
always gone, to the G. 0. P
Somehow or other, Bryan's jumping
into the President refninds us of the
historic bull that jumped into the 1o-
comotive. . We may admire Bryan's
pluck, but we have a very poor opin:
fon of his descretion.
‘The Afro-American can never be
charged with ingratitude, He realizes
what the Republican party has done
for him and will stand by the party
in this campaign as he has done in
e past.

agitating many of the minds of the
‘Southern brethren ia whether, or not,

the Afro-American vote up north,
Standard Oil has no political pre-
ferences nor prejudices. Democrat,
Republican, Populist and Socfalist—

rakes them in comin’ an goin’,
We do not claim that Bryan, it
elected, would appoint Haskell, Tom
‘Taggart and Vardaman as Supreme
[Judges, but, as we have doubts upon
that point, we'll go for Taft.
Under the Roosevelt administra-
tino there are 11 Afro-Americans in
ithe diplomatic and consular service
jand their salaries aggregate $35,000
‘per annum, *
‘Uncle Joe Cannon say some poli-
ticlans have hollow-horn. We hope
Messrs, Bryan, Haskell & Co. will not
regard this as a personality.
Bryan is really the advance agent
of misery and want, and if he is
elected, those who voted for him will
see the point next year.
‘The government printing office at
Washington, D. C., employs 552 Afro-
Americans, and they earn $376,180
every year.
‘The Afro-American who fails to
vote for Taft at this time deserves
the contempt of his people,
The Democracy has stripped the
Afro-American of all his rights in the
South by force and trickery.
We must stand by law and order,
we must stand by prosperity, we
must stand by William H. Taft.

the Grand for the week starting Sunday matinee, Oct 18th. The play is sensational, brimful of exhilarating comedy, wholesome pathos, climaxes and thrills. The plot revolves around the nefarious methods of the notorious Black Hand gang, a band that has proved such a menace to the public all over the country. The gang kidnaps a wealthy heiress and holds her for ransom. She is eventually restored to her father's arms by the good persons in the piece after many hair-raising and perilous adventures. There is not a dull period in the production, the action being spirited throughout. A cast of more than passing merit has been engaged, and in point of scenic investiture, nothing, it is understood, has been neglected. The usual matinees will be given on Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday.

Bye defects are few—symptoms many.
‘There can be but two defects in the human eye.
Theeye may be too long in whole. Then we have the
Myopic eye.
Or too Short in whole—the Hyperopic eye.
Combine the two in one eye and we have Astigmatism.
Properly adjusted glasses will sorrect these defects.
Medicines or waiting, never.
‘Symptoms that spring from these two simple eye mal-
ormations are manifold; such as eye and headaches, Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility, Chorea, Epilepsy and
other ailments having their origin in lack of nerve force.
We correct all Defects of the human eye that glasses
will remedy. Charges reasonable. Satisfaction guaranteed.
