Tuesday's Returns
Victory, with
The bitterest city campaign ever put on in Tulsa came to a head Tuesday night at 7 o'clock, resulting in the election of Frank M. Wooden, democrat, with a majority of 157 votes over all the other candidates in the field, and giving a decided plurality to the entire democratic ticket with three other tickets in the race. This shows conclusively that the people of Tulsa still have abiding faith and confidence in the head of the democratic ticket and his associatesa commissioners and auditor. In the face of the bitter fight waged against the administration by the independent ticket and their leaders, the result of Tuesday's election is a compliment to Mayor Wooden, a direct rebuke to the independent ticket and a glorious victory for the democratic party in this city. None of the other candidates having received a majority of the votes cast, it will now be necessary to hold a second election, which election will be held one week from next Tuesday. The independent leaders are very much dissatisfied with the results of the election and the usual cry of "steal," "fraud" etc., has gone up from the independent headquarters.
However, the people have "spoken" in no uncertain terms and they will speak again at the next election in even more forcible terms. The Star predicted in a special edition Monday that the democratic ticket would lead in the race with the republican ticket a close second, the independent ticket a distant third and the socialist ticket a lagging fourth bringing up the drags. The returns of the election shows that the Star predictor is really a political prophet. The Colored vote was a potent factor in deciding the results of the election, notwithstanding the fact that the "East End" has always been considered a republican strong-hold.
The Colored voters followed the lead of their better judgment and voted for the best interest of the town as they saw it. The Star heartily compliments the voters of the East End for having so nobly voted their sentiment. The Star has always stood for the best interests of all the people and will of course continue in this well beaten pathway. With this principle in view we published a special edition Monday, putting certain facts before our readers. This special edition was circulated in every colored home in Tulsa and no doubt had its effect in helping the indifferent voters to bestir themselves as men for the best interest of Tulsa. That the Star was correct in taking the stand it did in this election was amply proven by the decision of the voters at the polls Tuesday.
SUMMER SCHOOLS FOR NEGROES
Of fourteen summer schools for colored teachers, reporting 2,121 students to the U. S. Commissioner of Education in 1912, four were held in Virginia and had 57 men and 609 women in attendance. Hampton with 346 students and Tuskegee in Alabama with 305 headed the list.

Representatives to the County Convention Selected.
The republican call for a meeting last Tuesday night to name delegates to the County convention which meets today, Saturday, at Oklahoma City was sponded to by three loyal veterans of the party, namely, J. B. Stradford, H. A. Guess and Archie V. Jones. The faithful three met and elected seven delegates, four others besides themselves, as follows: Geo. Mowbray, John A. Oliphant, A. Allen and Mr. Winteringer.

HIS HOM
P. L. Shoals, a prominent citizen of Bristow, was in Tulsa Tuesday and Wednesday on personal business, and while here incidentally met up with a reporter for the Star, who succeeded in extracting from him some interesting facts about the Colored people at Bristow and vicinity. Bristow is a farming town situated on the Frisco railway about 39 miles west of Tulsa, with a population of about 2000 people. Of this number approximately 300 are Colored people. According to Mr. Shoals the Colored people at Bristow are a very progressive class of people who are sticking close to nature and reaping the wealth of mother soil. Shoals is a Cherokee citizen. His mother was a full blood Cherokee and his father was a Negro, a native son of Alabama. He was born in the Choctaw nation 52 years ago and came up in the environments of the real western life. From 1888 to 1892 he was deputy U. S. Mrshal for the Northern district of the Indian Territory and as such became widely known. He has had his share of the Cow Boy life and in latter years setfied down to the practical farmer's

New Negro School Superintendent Oberholtzer Asks for a Building, equip For Industrial Training
Examinations on 11th and 18th
Superintendent Oberholtzer is proving his appreciation for the part played by the Colored voters of this city who were loyal to the school bond issue in a way that is highly commendable. He has gone in person to the city commissioners and asked for an appropriation to build a new school building for the East End and to equip departments therein for Manual training and Domestic Science teaching. If the request of Mr. Oberholzer is granted by the city commissioners, as it doubtless will be, Tulsa will take her place in rank with Oklahoma City, Muskogee and Okmulgee, all of which have Manual Training departments for both White and Colored schools. The white schools of this city had no Manual Training departments until last fall. Mr. Oberholtzer believes in all the advance methods of training the young minds and it was through his untiring efforts that these branches have been added to the schools of this city. Examination for city teachers will be held today and next Saturday, April 11th and 18th.

Sapulpa News
To Editor Tulsa Star:
Sunday was another big day in Sapulpa. Baptising being the order of the day. At 11 o'clock Rev. R. A. Whitaker preached one of his powerful sermons to the new converts. At 2:30 o'clock a line was formed for the water's edge, a great crowd gathered at the banks of Rock creek to witness the candidates put on Christ by baptism. After another strong sermon on Baptism by Rev. R. A. Whitaker 15 happy souls were baptised. We left water to reconvene at the church at 7 o'clock.
At night fellowshiping the newly baptised converts and the Lord's supper was the order. A great sermon was preached us by Rev. Dr. Whitaker, closed with a general handshaking.
Mrs. E. N. Dickson has been confined to her bed for the last two or three weeks, but she is improving now. We are proud to see her getting better and hope for her a speedy recovery.
Mrs. Fanny Weathers left Sunday for a two or three weeks' visit with her daughter Mrs. Elsie Jacobs, at Muskogee, Okla.
The street carnival has been here the past week and have claimed the attentions of quite a deal of our people. Suckers bite as usual, and they carried off the money.
The Creek county Teachers' Association will meet in Sapulpa Friday, April the 10th. Quite an number of teachers are expected to be in attendance.
Mr. E. D. Glass is pushing the erection of his Hotel as fast as skill and labor can build it, when completed it will be a cozy and modern building, and a credit to our town. We are anxious for its completion. Mr. E. J. Jolly is also building a nice little building which he expects to open with an ice cream parlor soon. Second to none in the state. Sapulpa is fast becoming the ideal spot to live on.

Harlow Brokerage Company
Harlow Brokerage Company
Opens New Store at Muskogee
The Harlow Brokerage Company, of which C. W. Harlow of this city is president, has purchased a new store and its entire stock at Muskogee. This company owns a string of stores in Kansas and Oklahoma, and all of them are said to be doing a thriving business. Mr. Harlow himself is in charge of the company's store here in Tulsa. His store here averages a daily business which exceeds that of any other store in town. This is due to the fact that patrons of this store are usually satisfied with their purchases both in point of quantity and the comparatively low prices paid.
The Harlow Brokerage Company makes a specialty of buying bankrupt stock and giving their patrons the benefit of the other fellow's misfortune.
The people of Muskogee are to be complimented on having secured the location in that city of one of the Harlow stores. Before many weeks have passed they will have realized the advantage of having this store there and will give it the patronage it is justly entitled to.

l, Gas & Coal Co
A new oil and gas company, composed of Negroes, will soon be organized with headquarters at Tulsa. This enterprize is being promoted by some of the leading Colored men of the state and when chartered will be one of the strongest organizations of its kind in the United States.
Chief Harrison, a prominent citizen of Haskell is mentioned as the president of the company; Mr. Rector, father of Sarah Rector, the wealthiest Negro girl in America, is mentioned as one of the vice-presidents, and a prominent Tulsa man as secretary. There is a liklihood of the company operating a coal mine also, as the prospective president is owner of considerable coal land in this state. He owns the land at Midway, three miles from Tulsa, on the Katy railroad, where there is now a coal mine doing a good business. The lease on this land now held by the operators of this coal mine will expire sometime in August and if the company is organized and chartered before that time the lease will be cancelled and the company of Colored men will take charge of the mine there. Chief Harrison is a Creek citizen and is well known among Creek citizens. A meeting will be called in the near future to complete the organization and put the company in substantial working order.

R. T. HILL IN CALIFORNIA
Reuben T. Hill, the defaulting cashier of the True Reformers Savings Bank of Richmond, has been located in California, where he has lived for some months, posing as a physician and living in seclusion, in a part of Los Angeles where no Negroes live. If Hill is returned to Virginia he will have to face a charge of embezzlement covering $45,000 to $50,000. A heavy reward is standing for the arrest and conviction of Chief Hill.
Backache Warns You
Backache is one of Nature's warnings of kidney weakness. Kidney disease kills thousands every year.
Don't neglect a bad back. If your back is lame—if it hurts to stoop or lift—if there is irregularity of the secretions—suspect your kidneys. If you suffer headaches, dizziness and are tired, nervous and worn-out, you have further proof.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills, a fine remedy for bad backs and weak kidneys.

Catering to All.
A Boston merchant tells of an old grocer in Massachusetts who was about as "slick" an article as one would care to meet.
"One day," says the Bostonian, "I stopped before his shop and looked curiously at a long line of barrels of apples, some marked with an 'A.' some marked with a 'Z.'
"'What is the meaning of these markings?' I asked. 'The barrels seem to contain the same kind of apples.'
"'They are the same kind, son,' the old gentleman replied, 'but some customers want a barrel opened at the top and some at the bottom.'"
Mustard an Ancient Remedy.
Mustard is one of the most ancient of medicines. Pythagoras, who flourished between 500 and 600 years before Christ, mentions it. Hippocrates, who was born in 460 B. C., employed it. Pliny the Elder, writing in 77 A.D., describes three different kinds of mustard, and says the seeds were imported to Italy from Egypt originally.
The Romans used it as a stimulant after a cold bath; they mixed mustard oil and olive oil in equal parts and used this as a liniment for stiffness of the muscles. They knew the virtues of mustard poultices and of mustard as an emetic. As a remedy for the stings of scorpions and serpents, they pounded it, mixed it with vinegar and applied it to the wound.
They also made a drink out of it, fermenting the seed in a fiery spirit. The liquor thus produced they called mustum ardens, which means burning wine. The word mustard is probably derived from this.

Separating Yolks From Whites.
In separating the white from the yolk of eggs, it often happens that just a little of either is scattered and will spoil the use of the parts, as, for instance, the whites will not beat to the same lightness unless the yolk is entirely removed. If a piece of damp linen is touched to the remaining yolk it will be removed at once. If a piece of egg shell gets into the mixture, the egg shell itself made to touch the offending scrap will cause the two to form an adhesion, and it can be brought out of the dish at once.
To Wash Silk Underwear.
Now that silk underwear is worn so extensively, it behooves the owner to see that it is washed properly. When washing white silk garments soap should not be rubbed on them, and pure white soap rather than yellow should be used for the suds. Rinse very thoroughly in cold water after rubbing in lukewarm suds. Iron with only a moderately warm iron and cover the silk with a piece of muslin so that the iron will not come in contact with the silk.

SPRING FEVER IS HEALTHY
It Indicates Fresh Hopes and Renewed Buoyancy of Spirit.
How wonderfully tight the spring wander-lust for the countryside grips one!
Spring fever, with all of its healthfulness, is the harbinger of fresh hopes and a buoyancy of spirit.
I noticed a passenger on a Detroit-Chicago train the other day who had started out on his trip with the evident intention of becoming deeply taken with one of the best sellers, that he might shorten the trip between the two cities. You have done the same thing yourself.
But his book had been cast aside. He had read only a few pages. His interest in it had larged
From the car windows he was counting the fields now bared of snow. The ditches were carrying away the water and the still less sluggish creeks were now streams bearing the overflow to the rivers. The farmer, in his shirt sleeves, was repairing the fences after the winter drifts; the cattle showing proof of a winter's stabling and now heading here and there toward the meadows, seeking the new-green patches of grass; the farm help, in field and stubble, was putting into repair this and that necessary feature, here looking after his plow and there his harrow, and on all sides were scenes which reminded the traveler that spring was here, at last!
As the train sped onward and glimpses of the painter as he worked on the weather-beaten buildings were revealed, the interest of the tourist was aroused and, when I asked him the reason, he answered: "Spring is here and I feel its blood flowing!"
The truth was, that like many others, he was planning the work he was to do the coming summer. He was going out to the farm—his farm in Western Canada. He had his wells to dig, his horses to get into shape, his grain implements to fix up, his seed grain to prepare, and other details for the land that was ready to receive it. His was what might be termed an "unrest"—to get to the farm!
Thousands in Western Canada today are making the preparations that this interested man contemplated. Their summer fallows are ready for the wheat, their spring plowing is being attended to, fences are being rebuilt or being put into repair; indeed, the entire country is one great hive of industry. Railroads are in readiness to take care of a great rush of settlers, those charged with the reception of whom are prepared to extend every courtesy and thus meet the rush with judgment and without the least friction. Thus, the enjoyment of the opening of spring is fully met.
At many of the stations throughout many of the middle western states, trains of settlers' effects are in readiness to move to Western Canada. Not only in these states are scenes of this kind to be witnessed, but, also, on either coast and throughout the eastern states there is the same activity among those going to Western Canada this spring. The crops have been heavy and all reports are that the winter was enjoyable; also, that the prospects for a satisfactory year were never better. There is plenty of land yet to be had by homesteading or otherwise. Adapted, as Western Canada is, to small grain farming, it is especially adapted to cattle raising and many of the farmers are placing small and large herds, as their individual means will permit.
The illustrated literature sent out by the Canadian government agents tells the truth clearly and the inquirer should send for a copy and if you be one of those who has an ambitious interest, you may be the gainer by a perusal of such information—straight, cold facts in themselves.—Advertisement.

THINGS ABOUT GUINEA FOWL
Birds Make Excellent Substitute for Game and Many Big Hotels Serve Them as Pheasants.
(By MRS. A. JOSEPH.)
The demand for guinea fowls grows stronger every year and is increasing as people become acquainted with the good qualities of their flesh. Those who have learned to appreciate the flavor of the flesh of a plump guinea are not slow to express surprise at the fact that the excellent qualities of this bird have not been more widely recognized.
It is true that the cook book falls to refer to them at all and yet there is not the least question but that they are superior eating to either the duck or the goose.
The young fowl are best broiled, while the older birds may be cooked by any recipe devised for the cooking of chickens, and in any case the result is far more palatable.
The flesh of the guinea is rather dark, but is finely grained, possessing a game flavor. For this reason the fowl makes an excellent substitute for game and many hotels in the larger cities serve it for pheasant. The eggs are also much relished on account of their rich flavor.
Every family in the country should keep a few guineaas, if for no other purpose than for a "watch" for the

poultry flock. In fact, in some places in this state they are called the watchdogs of the poultry yard.
The high, shrill notes which they possess will quickly put to flight any hawk or crow mischief bent; while after night no prowling animal or person can approach a house where guineas roost without arousing their discordant cries of alarm. Their senses of smell and hearing seem to be very keen.
The time required for hatching guinea eggs is twenty-eight days. The guinea is naturally a wild bird possessing a strong instinct to wander. For this reason it is better to raise the young birds under hens as they are more careful of their young than the guinea hens, and a great deal of trouble to get them to behave like domestic fowls will be avoided and if a few chicks can be placed with the brood when first taken off, so much the better; the guineas will then be inclined to stay along with the other birds and will not be nearly so wild as if kept alone.
OATS WILL PRESERVE EGGS
When Carefully Packed In Barrel and Placed In Some Cool Corner They Will Keep Sweet.
(By MRS. D. RYMER)
Every year I pack a great many eggs and they keep from two to three months, and even longer in perfect condition. I have tried "water glass" and other things, but find that oats will keep eggs longer than anything else.
I pack them in half barrels and use plenty of oats. I first place a layer of oats about three inches on the bottom, and then a layer of eggs, never allowing one to touch the other, or the sides of the barrel. And then follow with another layer of oats until within about six inches from the top, when I fill up the barrel with oats. If the barrel containing the eggs is placed in a cool corner of the cellar or in the attic, or any other dry place, they will keep perfectly sweet, but if allowed to become damp they will spoil.
I have packed eggs in October in this way leaving them in the barn until nearly Christmas and then bringing them to the house. I have used these eggs as late as the following April and have sold them—always stating exactly what they were—and never had a complaint.

I tried other medicine but got no relief. After taking one bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I began to improve and I continued its use for six months. The pains left me, the night-sweats and hot flashes grew less, and in one year I was a different woman. I know I have to thank you for my continued good health ever since." — Mrs. M. J.

CAUSE OF TROUBLE
CAUSE OF TROUBLE
By CY WARMAN.
No. 7, the Salt Lake Limited, used to chase No. 21, the fast freight, into Salida, as a terrier chases a tomcat into the kitchen. If 21 was ten minutes late, she had to pull right into the yards, but if she arrived sharp at 4:15, the road engines would cut off at the coal chutes, pull up and back in on the house track.
That gave the yard engine ten minutes to pull the freight in to clear the main line, allowing five minutes for variations, clearing the line for 7, due at 4:30.
Now, if you have never done 120 miles on an alkali division in summer, you will say it's a small thing to scrap about. Why don't you pull on up into the yard?
That's all very fine, but just pulling up isn't all. The limited follows you in. The road forks here. The limited has to be cut and shifted into two sections—one for Leadville and the other over Marshall Pass to Salt Lake; for this thing happened when what is now the main line ended at Leadville.
It was summer in Salida. Johnny Hill and Johnny Carr came in on 21—double-heading. They were on time. The 217 and the 222, respectively, were the Grants, handled by these
A man in a suit and hat is running away from a police officer.
Chased the Yardmaster Across the Track.
energetic space-eaters. Hill was ahead, and when the 217 was opposite the switch he hooked her over. The head brakeman pulled the pin behind the second engine.
All this time Killeen, the yardmaster, was giving frantic signals for the double-header to hoist the train up into the yard. Hill didn't appear to see these signals. When the yardmaster saw that the brakeman was cutting off, he jumped on the footboard and told the driver of the 106 (that was the goat) to back up.
Just as Hill and Carr got their engines into the forward motion, the goat jumped onto the frog and blocked the switch.
The yardmaster—whose word is law in the yard limits—ordered them to back up, couple on, and pull the train. Hill asked him where the yardmen were. Killeen intimated that that was his business.
"Bet four dollars they're over at McGulre's gin-mill."
"That's their business—back up."
"Have they any other business?" Hill asked.
Killeen knew that old Tom Andrews was on No. 7, and as he looked at his big watch she blew. The rear brakeman had gone back, and, a second later, they heard Tom answer his signal.
"Now will you back up? You still have two minutes to save your job."
All three of the engines were blowing off. Hill beckoned Killeen up under the cab window and told him to ask Carr. As Killeen went back, Hill's fireman dropped, off, and picked up the pilot-bar of the 217. As he did so, Hill pushed forward, and, before the yard engineer knew what had happened, they were all coupled up.
Hill whistled Carr ahead, and then began a tug of war that resembled a fight between bulls.
If the goat had been on her guard she could have backed them up, but they got her going. All three were wide open, spitting fire and grinding sand. The air was blue with smoke and full of a smell like brimstone.
The goat screamed down brakes, but the two Grants, eager to get to the turntable, to turn and head for home, would not down. At the water-tank, where the rail was wet, both the Grants blew up, and before they could get sand to them, the yard engine started them back. The racket created by the three engines brought Carl Ridgway, chief clerk in the office of his father, the
superintendent, bareheaded, to see what was happening.
Jones, the master mechanic, rushed from his office, and De Remer, the foreman, from the roundhouse.
The yardmaster and the head brakeman on the freight were scrapping for the possession of the switch. There was such a rain of fire from the three stacks that nobody seemed to care to rush in and pry them apart.
Without taking time to hear the case the motive-power officials were inclined to sympathize with the road engineers, while young Rldgway leaned toward the yard crew.
While they scrapped, old Tom, back on 177, swore audibly, while traveling men, who knew the road, left the train and hurried up to the hotel to supper.
It was smooth sledding for the goat until she struck the wet rail. By this time, the road engines were on dry sand. One more run and they shot the goat over the switch. The brakeman and the yardmaster were still struggling for the switch when Carr's fireman threw it over and the two Grants backed in to clear.
When the officials had succeeded in pulling Killeen from the brakeman, the goat backed down, coupled on, and took the freight in off the main line; No. 7 pulled up to the station 15 minutes late.
Hill and Carr were in bad.
The law of the rail is to obey orders on the road and kick after.
The conductor of No. 7 was first to report. Cause of delay: "Line blocked by twenty-one."
Dispatcher to Hill—Matter at Salida?
Hill—Yard crew.
Dispatcher—Matter with yard crew?
Hill—Coffin varnish.
The ward crew, save Killeen, were still lapping up intoxicants at McGuire's, along whose front porch lay the lead of the yard tracks. Killeen, with an eye in mourning, had to make up the two sections of No. 7, one for the third, the other for the fourth, division, getting them out 3 minutes late.
Meanwhile, Hill and Carr received orders, while their engines were being turned, and were now screaming down the Grand Canyon of the Arkansas for Pueblo, wondering what they would do to kill time for the next 30 days.
When the two sections of 7 and three sections of 21 had departed—the last section an hour and forty minutes late—Killeen went over to McGuire's to round up his Indians.
As the evening was young, some of them objected to the yardmaster's interference, and, eventually, they started a row among themselves. One fellow found a gun and chased the yardmaster across the track as No. 8 was coming in from Leadville.
Just here, John Hill's good fortune, which has chased him through 45 years, turned up. Mr. Kelker, the master mechanic to whom Hill and Carr would have to explain on the morrow, was in the east sleeper—just going to bed.
Before the train had stopped at the station there was a loud report outside and a bullet smashed through the window immediately over the master mechanic's bed, ripped through the curtains, crashed out through another window and sped on its way.
Hill and Carr were not called to go out the following afternoon. They were called to go in and see the master mechanic.
They went. The Old Man had all the papers in the case before him. Hill recognized his wire of the previous night to the train-master. The master mechanic asked:
"What was the trouble out at Salida?"
Hill—The yard crew.
Master Mechanic—There was some excitement when 8 came through.
Hill—Yes. That was Rough Neck Ryan shootin' at Killeen.
Master Mechanic—What made him want to kill Killeen?
Hill—Same thing that made all the trouble. Mr. Kelker—coffin varnish
China.
Any figures for the population of China must necessarily be more or less unreliable, inasmuch as the census man is not much in evidence in the land of the Celestials. The estimate, which is probably somewhere near correct, is 402,700,000. As to whether the millions of China will ever thoroughly modernized in the sense that the Japanese are, remains to be seen. The Chinaman possesses a plenty of good sense, and there seems to be no valid reason why he should not some time "catch on" to the things, and forge ahead with the rest of the folks.
The largest dairy farm in the world is nearing completion at Head Lake, Headingly, a suburb of Winnipeg, Can. When completely stocked the farm will contain 2,500 head of cattle within its fences. With 1,500 of these giving milk, the total yearly output of milk and cream is expected to be about three million gallons.

And now we are to have another election—But we all know the
results. Why worry about a campaign?
While cleaning up is in order let’s get busy in the East End.
Your home place can be made as clean as the finest home in Tulsa—
and it really ought to be.. Now just see how nicely you can do the
job.
Any little fellow can get out on the streets and prattle about
his political prestige and sagacity, but there is a man in ‘Tulsa who
sits in his office and pulls the wires that almost decides the question
on election day. There's just one political Mark Hannah in Tulsa.
It is not the little curb-stone, would-be politician who spends
his |time telling “de white folks” what he can do with the Negro
voters and exploiting his own great personality in his community,
telling of his wonderful influence, ete., that represents the better
element of Colored people in any city or town, The man who is
really influential in any community is that man who is always mind-
ful of his own obligatoins to the people of that community and who
at all times manifests a sincere regard for the best interests for all
the people of the community.
‘The selfish individual whose chief ambition is to elevate him-
self even at the cost of his neighbor can never be a leader of any
people. It takes thoughtful, honest, conscientious men to be recog-
nized as leaders. And besides he must have that peculiar faculty
of knowing when and how to advise, so that the majority of the peo-
ple will agree with him, There is at least one such man in the East
Ind, and his influence was felt in Tuesday's election. He is not a
lawyer, nor a doctor, nor a teacher, just a plain, straigtforward man
who has the confidence of the people.
THE WAGONER LYNCHING.
The lynching of the negro woman over at Wagoner a few days
ago is giving Oklahoma some fine advertising throughout the coun-
try, particularly in the north, east and west. In the south it seems
that lynchings of negroes are accepted as a matter of course and ex-
cite no surprise nor comment.
There will be those who will charge, of course, that Governor
Cruce’s commutation policy is responsible for the numerous lynch-
ings in this state and seek to make it appear that a killer in the gov-
ernor’s office would put an end to lynchings. The facts, however,
belie such conclusions and make them appear as extremely weak
excuses for frequent manifestations of barbaric impulse. The Wag-
oner mob lynched the negress because it is the popular thing to
do. It understood that our prosecutors long since learned to shut
their eyes to anarchy of this nature. Moreover, we must have some
form of innocent amusement for the bloodthirsty.
But thes tate is suffering no end of adverse criticism among law-
respecting people everywhere because the mob spirit runs riot every
time a negro commits some dastardly crime. We are being held
up before the gaze of the world as a barbaric, semi-civilized: people
who observe the forms of law only when we find it convenient.
If it could be truthfully said that our courts and juries were
remiss toward the crimes committed by negroes some excuse might
be found for these numerous lynchings. But the contrary is the
case: We have an abundance of law for adequately punishing every
crime committed by negroes as well as whites or reds, and courts
aud juries which mete out justice with a stern hand. The conclusion
is unescapable that we indulge in lynchings so often because, as a
race, we thirst for negro blood, and love the excitement which at-
tends the stringing up of a black skin, Let us look out, however,
that we are not met with a derisive smile when we say to a stranger
that we are a civilized people.—Daily Oklahoman.
Phe East end is still suflering for want of street improve-
ment. What are the citizens of this community doing to bet-
ter conditions?

SOLDIERS LIFE IN HAWAIL \
BY ONE OF THE SOLDIERS.
From boyhood I desired to make
a soldier and I would often men-
tion this inclination to my mother:
About the most encouragement I
received from her was a command
which meant.—‘ Beat it with that
neise.””
As I grew in age and knew more
about the duties of asoldier, and
especially the opportunity of such
a fellow to see the world and for-
eign lands, I became more deter-
mined to mvke a soldier; so I en-
listed in the U.S. Army, bound for
Hawaii.
At first they sent me to Wash-
ington, from whence I was sent, af-
ter a short while, to San Franci. co
and across the “briny” Pacific to
Hawaii Islands. When we reached
Honolula it wes telling upon the
nerves of the recruit. We swung
our rolls about our shoulders, how-
ever, and were sent on a two days
“nike,” reaching Pearl City, where
we feil out and slept on the bare
ground until early the next morn
ing when we were gain ordered to
march until half past eleven o’clock,
—and the sua was broiling hot. We
marched to Schofield Barracks by
that time before we could smell
put—without food. But it was sol-
dier life—discipIne, they call it.
Makes a feliow think of home—and
with such a fare—the life of a sol-
dier. Each day, each trying or-
deal, makes home dearer
— This s & wonderful country ond
beautiful Perpetual summer, flow-
ers always. When I reached the
city of Honolula I thought I would
i the city and then make applica-
tion for a pass. Butin the city I
was alone. Every one spoke a lan.
guage of his own—all different from
minc, More thoughts of home—and
the great thought in all its serious:
ness and signiffleance came to me,
and I felt jike bursting forth wich
all the music of my soul with my
thought of: “My Country "Lis of
Thee, etc.”

back to America—my country—my

Myra, Ky.—Mrs. Sarah Branham, of this town, gives out the following statement for publication: "I am 37 years of age, and suffered untold agony with womanly troubles for 11 years. For 7 years, I was all run down, and was told that I could not live. My husband spent everything he had, but I got only temporary relief. A merchant recommended Cardul, the woman's tonic, to my husband, and he got me 5 bottles at one time. I began taking it, and before the first bottle was gone, I began to feel better. I took all of the 5 bottles, and I am today as sound and well as any woman, and fat and hearty."
Such testimony as the above, which is given unsolicited, speaks for itself. Can't you see, lady reader, that you are doing yourself, your family, your friends, an injustice by not, at least, trying Cardul, if you suffer from any of the many ailments so common to women?
Cardul is composed of pure, harmless, vegetable ingredients, which act in a gentle, natural way on the weakened womanly organs, helping build them back to permanent strength and health.
Cardul has helped thousands of other women. Why not you?
Ask your druggist. He knows about Cardul.

Mr. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building, for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide experience as Editor, Author and Manufacturer, he is, without doubt, the highest authority on all these subjects. Address all inquiries to William A. Radford, No. 1827 Prairie avenue, Chicago, Ill., and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply.
Sometimes it is necessary to build a house to fit a narrow lot. As a general thing lots are deep enough to hold almost any kind of a house. Few lots in American cities are less than one hundred feet front to back, but because of expensive street improvements they are often squeezed sideways until houses get to be very close neighbors. It is unfortunate that it is so but we have to take conditions as we find them and make the best of them. Sometimes these narrow lots are in very desirable neighborhoods, convenient to transportation and convenient for other reasons; and by building a house to fit the lot such property may be made very comfortable and attractive.
This design shows a house only 18 feet wide, but the length is 38 feet 6 inches, exclusive of the front porch. Such a shape necessarily requires that one room shall follow another, sometimes with a very long dark narrow hall, but this plan avoids that difficulty by putting a room at the back end of the hall and by connecting the kitchen with the dining room by way of the pantry. Then the upper part of the house is laid out with a bedroom in each end and a bathroom opposite the upper hallway in the center. This arrangement requires that the bathroom shall be lighted by a dormer window, the

design of which is very neat and attractive. It adds a great deal to the appearance of the house because it is ornamental as well as useful. Such attachments make up the difference between a common cheap looking house and a satisfactory, useful, ornamental habitation that is at once very pleasing and interesting.
So-called cottage houses with one gable end towards the street are as common as house files in the cheaper

You may count them by the hundreds and they are all practically alike; cheap tenement looking affairs, each house trying to look as near like its neighbor as possible without any attempt at individual ornamentation. The front yard is usually bare of grass and there is a broken board walk at the side. Generally such houses are boxed in with some kind of a wooden fence that shows signs of weather wear and the dilapidated breakage caused by children at play.

A neat design like this costs very little more, but what a difference in appearance. The shape of the roof and the corresponding roof over the front porch with the proper placing of windows make the difference in the outside appearance. The colors used in painting of course have a good deal to do with the final finish. A good combination of light shade of paint for the body with darker trimmings carefully chosen to properly match show to

modern improvements whether the house is large or small. More attention is being paid to bathrooms with hot and cold water connection than ever before. The time will soon come when a house won't rent or sell unless it has what are generally termed modern improvements. I have known small houses to rent for eight or ten dollars a month and I have known houses that cost very little more to rent for double that amount simply because they were built attractively and contained modern means of heating and with plumbing connections so the different members of the family could keep themselves clean.
A great deal depends on the plan as well as the convenience and the outside appearance. It is an art that seems difficult to acquire, the building of small artistic, comfortable houses, but it is an art well worth studying. Such houses should be a great deal more common than they are. It would prevent families who like to live nicely from crowding into flat buildings where they have neither light nor sufficient air. This is another excuse for narrow lots. A 50-foot lot would hold two such houses and make comfortable living quarters for two families instead of one.
Regular Health Exercises
Men and women of sedentary habit as a rule do not take sufficient exercise, especially in the open, nor do they practice deep breathing, both of which have a direct effect upon the blood and its course through the body. Morning exercises should be taken regularly, including deep breathing. They should also be repeated at noon hour and on going home and again on retiring.

VITAL FORCE
Disease germs are on every hand. They are in the very air we breathe. A system 'run down' is a prey for them. One must have vital force to withstand them. Vital force depends on digestion—on whether or not food nourishes—on the quality of blood coursing through the body.
DR. PIERCE'S Golden Medical Discovery
Strengthens the weak stomach. Gives good digestion. Enlivens the sluggish liver. Feeds the starved nerves. Again full health and strength return. A general upbuilding enables the heart to pump like an engine running in oil. The vital force is once more established to full power.
Year in and year out for over forty years this great health-restoring remedy has been spreading throughout the entire world—because of its ability to make the sick well and the weak strong. Don't despair of "being your old self again." Give this vegetable remedy a trial—Today—Now. You will soon feel "like new again."

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to Bring Back Color, Gloss, Thickness.
Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy," you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe for about 50 cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy.

INTERNATIONAL
SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON
By E. O. SELLERS, Director of Evening Department, The Moody Bible Institute, Chicago.)
THE JOURNEY TO EMMAUS.
LESSON TEXT—Luke 24:13-35.
GOLDEN TEXT—"Who is he that shall condemn? It is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us." Rom. 8:34.
We turn aside today to consider as the Easter lesson a well-known event in connection with the several appearances of our Lord after his resurrection; one of the many infallible proofs, Acts 1:3; I Cor. 15:4. The narrative of this journey is one of the most beautiful post-resurrection stories, simple, clear and of great value. It is related, evidently, by an eye witness. The Cleopas mentioned is not the son of Mary, John 19:25. The name of the second pilgrim is but a conjecture, though we somehow feel it was Luke himself. The journey was about seven and one-half miles and most likely they were returning to their homes after the Passover. Somewhere on the way a stranger joined them who asked the nature of their conversation, and the cause of their evident sadness (v. 17). In astonishment, Cleopas answers, but the stranger continues and adroitly draws out their entire story.
Interesting Progression.
I. Their Disappointment, vv. 13-24. It is all too evident that they did not expect a resurrection and that, filled with perplexity and discouragement they were on the verge of despair. It is interesting in this lesson to observe the progression (1) "and they talked" v. 14; (2) "and they found not," v. 23; (3) "and they saw not," v. 24; (4) "and they constrained him," v. 29; (5) "and they knew him," v. 31; (6) "and they said . . . . . the Lord is risen," vv. 32, 34; (7) "and they told," v. 34. As they "talked" it was revealed that their loving hearts were full of sadness and empty of faith, yet to talk is often the only way to find relief from the gnawing of grief. There seem (v. 15 R. V.) to have been two opinions and in their slowness of heart and unbelief they did not recognize their new companion. In response to his query they told how this Jesus had been delivered, condemned, crucified, and then revealed that this was to them the end of all things, for said they, "We had hoped that it was he." Are we willing he should have part in our every conversation? Continuing they told the amazing tale related by the women and, moreover that their statement of an empty tomb had been verified by certain women who had gone to investigate, but, in conclusion, they again reverted to their sadness by saying "They found his body."
Cause of Sadness.
II. His Appointment, vv. 25-35. Evidently the journey was continued and he gently rebukes them for their slowness of heart to believe the record of their own prophets. All sadness, practically, arises from unbelief in the Word of God, Phil. 4:6, 7; Rom. 8:28-32. He interpreted to them the true Messianic teaching of their own scriptures. He charges them with folly not to believe "all" of the record (v. 25). True wisdom is not that of skepticism which cuts out portions of the word, but, according to Jesus, it consists in believing all of the Scriptures. At last they reach Emmaus, still, let us remember, not knowing who it is walking with them. The road beyond was dangerous and "they constrained him" to accept their hospitality. As he sat at the table partaking of the ordinary evening meal, he assumed the place of the host, took the bread, blessed it and broke it. Instantly those old familiar acts and words revealed to them who it was that had walked by the way.
III. Teaching Points. This narrative is so full of teaching and yet so clear and simple that it is hard to suggest any ordinary deductions therefrom. The story does, however, reveal the interest of the risen Lord in the doubt of these two disciples. That they were probably not of the twelve is evident by the fact that when they returned to Jerusalem they found the eleven assembled (v. 33). Thus we see him going to those outside of that inner circle, also, two who loved him seeking a solution of the mystery and consolation for their sad hearts. First hiding his identity, he drew from them their story. He then took them back to their Scriptures, with which they must have been familiar, and revealed to them that this mystery was according to those holy writings.
KIDNEYS CLOG UP FROM EATING TOO MUCH MEAT
Take Tablespoonful of Salts If Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers—Meat Forms Uric Acid.
We are a nation of meat eaters and our blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irritable, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe headaches, nervous and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and active.—Adv.
MADE THE GHOST DISGUSTED
English Statesman's Story of Vision Has at Least a Little Touch of Originality.
Mr. Birrell told a ghost story at the Bristol Press Fund dinner, when responding to the toast, "Literature and Journalism." In referring to a recent speech by Dr. Silvanus Thompson on the importance of science, Mr. Birrell said:
"I don't know, my Lord Mayor, whether you ever have bad dreams, but I have been haunted ever since I was almost a boy by the constant repetition of one and the same dream.
"It comes to me again and again. It is this: I dream I am walking about somewhere in some plain or desert, and I suddenly encounter the agitated ghost of Sir Isaac Newton. He approaches me, his eyes almost starting out of his head; he tells me who he is, and how ignorant he is of all that has happened in the world of science since he left.
"Now," he says, 'I want you to tell me in a few words—for I have only a quarter of an hour left—all that has happened to the race; the progress. How is it? I know what it was when I left it. What is it now?'
"My heart sinks, and, covered with confusion, I stumble, I stutter, I stammer, I become more and more involved, my ignorance becomes more and more apparent, and at last the unhappy ghost, throwing up his hands, leaves me with dismay.
"That dream constantly comes to me. The only difference is that the moment the unhappy Sir Isaac Newton sees me now he says, 'Oh, that old ignoramus,' and departs."—London Tit-Bits.
HAIR CAME OUT IN BUNCHES
Route No. 3, Box 20A, Broken Arrow, Okla.—"My trouble began with an itching of the scalp of my head. My scalp at first became covered with flakes of dandruff which caused me to scratch and this caused a breaking out here and there on the scalp. It became so irritated until I could not rest at night and my hair would come out in bunches and became short and rough.
"Everything I used would cause it to grow worse and it continued that way for about three or four years. While reading the paper I saw the advertisement of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and sent for a sample. It proved so good that I decided to get some more. I used them as directed and in two weeks I saw a good effect. Now my hair is longer and looks better than I have ever known it to be. I give all the credit of my cure of scalp trouble to the Cuticura Soap and Ointment." (Signed) Mrs. Ella Sheffield, Nov. 30, 1912. Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold throughout the world.

The mother of five-year-old Helen Martin of Boston has been ill for nearly two weeks and a nurse has been in constant attention. Recently, however, she has been convalescing. The other afternoon the maid was giving Helen her bread and milk preparatory to tucking her in bed for the night when the nurse, spotless and serene, leisurely walked through the room and stood gazing out of the window. Helen looked at her disapprovingly. "Well," she blurted out. "You haven't done much work today, have you?"
