Defective Page ST. PAUL ST. PAUL ORGANIZATION. Negroes are citizens and voters, and should be recognized as such. The Independent Political League of St. Paul is the talk of the "wise ones." And the Colored Democrats are favorable to the movement, and are willing to help the "Flag Followers of the G. A. R., through their present dilemma. They consider themselves, and are the real progressives among our race in St. Paul—and are not ashamed to be classed as men who vote from principle. Among them are Messrs. C. H. Miller, F. L. Mckee, Wm. Liggins, Worden Haynes and Owen Howell. They have been Republicans, but had the courage to cut loose party ties, and assert their right to vote, regardless of party. The Old Guard may continue to fight for the Lost Cause and be led by a forlorn hope. The Colored voters of the 8th ward are and have been a power, and the Colored citizens of St. Paul has been benefited by their support given to Democratic candidates. The present crisis should place the Negro where he belongs. Had the Republicans wanted to deal fairly by the Negroes, they would have given them 3 representatives on the State Central Committee, one from Duluth, one from St. Paul, and one from Minneapolis. This is the apportionment that we ask. They could have a county organization and elect a committee of three, the Chairman of the County committee to be a member of the State Central Committee. This will never be done without a Readjustment of affairs. The wheel horses will fight to the last ditch, and the machine will help them, but the result will be that Negroes will be recognized. At present a Negro has no connection with the state committee. The Editor of the Star does not seek any undue noteyet, but at all times will defend the rights of the members of the race who are being led by a set of leaders of the Republican party, white and black, who seek to carry out their policies, which places Negroes of Minnesota and Texas on an equal footing politically. Our progress is hindered by those of our race, who are the puppets and lackeys of the men higher up. What representation has Minnesota? Why should they fear organization? It is because the so-called leaders are afraid to come out in the open, and secure their credentials by the consent of their constituents. Do they fear the test. The Star does not belong to any party, does not fear any of the powers, and will not support any man, regardless of our race's best interest. We demand Recognition for the Negroes of Minnesota. Show your strength, by your vote. Mrs. Della Gray, daughter of Mrs. Nora Young of 579 Wabasha St., returned Monday from a visit to Chicago, where she spent a week visiting friends.

Dining Car Superintendents Meet Here In October. Questions pertaining to the feeling of the American traveling public will soon be discussed, when the American Association of Dining Car Superintendents holds its big annual convention in Minneapolis, Oct. 21, 22 and 23.

The convention will have the Hotel Radisson as its headquarters. E. J. Westlake, vice president of W. B. Joyce & Co., honorary member of the association, has made arrangements for the reception of the delegates at the Radisson when they reach the city. The convention comes to Minneapolis in response to an invitation of the Commercial Club, which was extended to them at the last convention in Chicago. The entire time of the convention will be devoted to the solving of the many problems in the management of the railway hotels and dining service of the principal roads of the two countries. Railroad men will find it convenient to visit the Porters' and Walters' Hotel, 319 Wabasha St., St. Paul. Its appointments are first class and the management has proven that they are "up to date."

Mr. Hagans is the asst. supt. of the S. and I. E. Ry Co. The Pullman Co., gives their porters an extra months' salary if they make a clean record during the year. This is about 50 cents a week bonus. They put up this "Big Bonus" and then give demerits and porters holding these forfeit their chances of winning. This is a mean, narrow way of adding insult to injury. Why do they not pay living wages? Because they .ormament their cars with "extra equipment" known as Conductors and pay them $90 per to look wise, and they can't do that. Mr. Can. Clark, one of the old Chicagoans, is now in the dining car service of the N. P. on the Winnipesg line. REPORT and DO STATION DUTY are the Pullman orders from now till ????? What do you know about it. Where were you running to last summer? Who are you running to now? The N. P.

Mr. and Mrs. Jno. Matthews spent last week visiting in the Twin Cities and attending the Conference. We are informed that Rev. Jonathan Brewer will again officiate at St. Mark's if the report is true, the appointment will prove highly acceptable to a large number in and out of religious circles. Mrs. J. D. Howard who has been making Duluth her home residing at 115 E. St., left Wednesday evening for New York, her former home and will be gone for about six weeks. Mr. and Mrs. B. V. Holmian gave a stag for Mr. Hobart H. Starks, a former resident of Duluth, last Wednesday evening to which a large number of the masculine members of the community were invited. An exceptionally pleasant evening was had. Mr. Starks left for his home in Tacoma, Washington, Thursday night. The Emancipation celebration and dance is still the talk of the town and many were the expressions of commendation of the manner in which it was carried out. The reports of the daily white press were very flattering and probably no affair given by colored people at the Head of the Lakes ever received such splendid notice. With the exception of the vredit given Miss Louica Horne, who did not appear nor even send an excuse, a discourtesy inexcusable and failure to note Mrs. Lina Dawson's eloquent paper this treatment was well deserved as every detail of the affair was carefully planned and executed. Thanks to the efficient services of the Ladies' Book Club, The Interstate Club and the Order of the Eastern Star. The men's lodges were somewhat indifferent but this sort of thing is so prevalent among Duluth's so called leaders, that the most of us have long since ceased to expect anything else. Mr. BenJ. Smith of Duluth went to Kansas City to attend the funeral of his nephew. His sister, Mrs. Edw. Frances gave a nine course dinner in his honor. Among the guests were Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Rollins and Prof. Royster. John R. Meining, a local traveling man for the Duluth Candy Company is again making the run for Sheriff against Sheriff Wm. Bates, with a good chance of "winning out." John is a good clean cut, square up and up man and it might help some if there were a few changes made at the County Court House. You know what to expect from the old Regime—NOTHING. What's the answer? Try some one else. The primary election resulted in a landslide for Cong. Clarence B. Miller and John R. Meining the Stars candidate for Congress and Sheriff respectively.

Miller, the Republican candidate from this district polled practically the entire negro vote at the last Congressional election. If there was reason for voting for Mr. Miller then, there is twice as much reason for voting for him now. On questions affecting the Negro he voted yea when yea meant something to our interest. Much of the agitation against Mr. Miller at present is mere political buncombe and so far as we are concerned, amounts to naught. Vote for Miller and the BIG EXPOSITION in 1913 which will put the negro on the Commercial, Literary, Financial and Political map. By King Kelley. CHICAGO NOTES. Mr. Will J.

Carter, C. & N. W. Buffet porter was given a "surprise party" by his wife and friends, in honor of his birthday. Mr. Carter has reached a ripe old age but still looks the same.

"We must drive the special interests of politics. That is one of our tasks today. Every special interest is entitled to justice—full, fair and complete—but not one is entitled to a vote in congress, a voice on the bench or to representation in any public office."

MINNEAPOLIS CHURCH NOTES The Iowa Annual Conference which met in Minneapolis Sept. 21 to 26, was the best session held in many years. The Ministers look on the Flour City as one of the greatest in the Union. There were many changes, but only one in our city. Rev. Roberts goes from St. Peter's to Milwaukee and we still have Rev. Jas. L. Wharton at St. James. The church and the people of Minneapolis asked that he may remain with them. Rev. Wharton is delighted and will begin work at once. The trustees are looking for a pastorate, and they are going to get it. Many other churches wanted their pastor, but they would not let him go.

Mr. Herbert Parker leaves for his annual hunting trip on Tuesday. He will be gone about 10 days. Herb is the recognized "Nimrod" of these parts, and Tom Oliver is a close second. DEPUTY STATE GRAIN WEIGHER This position was made vacant by the death of our esteemed young attorney, Harvey Burke. There has been no successor appointed, on account of "dullness in the grain business," and the "powers that be" have left it as a political plum. There are about 6 of our representative Negroes of the Republican party, seeking this position. They are giving their support to the party, on this hope, and working against each others interest for the support of the party. The position should have been filled by a negro within 30 days after the death of Mr. Burke, had they wanted to appoint one. Why didn't these aspirants get together and decide on a man among themselves, then present him as a representative of the race. No, they are too narrow. Each one is gloated with his own egotism, and each one has been given "the promise." They are led by a set of "political vultures," who are seeking the offices now held by men, who are giving satisfaction to the public, whom they also claim as friends and brothers. We may in next issue make known the names of these aspirants. Also inform them that there are other "positions"—which may be had by application, for instance, Mayors' messengers, or clerical positions. Let the man of our race stay in office if he makes good! Let us try to gain new positions. Do not wait for death or discharge to create a vacancy! Do not covet! Be men! --- MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. No. 16. No.16. THE OFFICIAL CALL 'OF THE WESTERN NEGRO PRESS Des Moines, Ia., Sept. 14, 1910. Pursuant to a general custom, and by virtue of the official power vested in me, after conference with the executive committee and other officers we have called the Fourteenth Annual Convention of the Western Negro Press Association, to convene in regular session in Muskogee, Okla., Friday and Saturday, November 25 and 26, 1910, for the purpose of discussing all things pertaining to the growth, development and advancement of human society, and especially the welfare of the African race, realizing that the pen is the most potent power when rightly used for the betterment of civilization, and the ultimate solution of all social, industrial, economic and political problems of this century; therefore, we urge upon the editors, correspondents, journalists, publishers and co-workers, book and magazine writers, and men and women engaged in the industrial arts allied to newspaper work to meet us here in regular session, with papers, essays, etc, to be read and discussed at this meeting, pertaining to the real needs of our down-trodden struggling race. All papers are asked to be prepared to be no longer than ten minutes, except those that are specially invited; the discussion will only be eight minutes, unless by common consent. All publications west of the Mississippi river are eligible to membership, annual dues one dollar. This meeting will bring together some of the leading orators and thinkers of the country, and the program when published will bear out this statement. Urgging the press to publish this call, and hoping to meet the members of our fraternity in our annual meeting Witness my hand this 14th day of September, 1910. JOHN L. THOMPSON, President, Editor of the Iowa State Bystander, Des Moines, Iowa J. DALLAS BOWSER, Cor. Sec. Care of Attux School, Kansas City, Mo. VERNON MAKES DENIAL. Hon. W. T. Vernon, Registrar of the Treasury, and President of In vaders Univ. Kansas, has denied the rumor that he said that if he had the power he would bar all Negroes from the Univ. of Kan., persuably to fill up his own institution. Atty Blackmore of Coffeyville gave out this statement. The Twin City Star did not believe Mr. Vernon guilty of the charges when made, and we are now of the opinion that it is an attempt to defame a man, who has done much good for his race. A knock is better than a boost. SALVATION IN SIGHT. The Negroes of St. Paul, are awakening. They have been aroused from their slumber by the call of the "Negro Political League. Yet they are loathe to arise and accept its dictures, and take advantage of their opportunities. The party slaves, who constitute the Old Guard, are unwilling to be identified with any movement that is not entirely Republican. This class of unchanging fools are the greatest hindrances to our race's progress. They are faithful followers of the Republican leaders in our State, wishing only to touch the hem of their garments and begging the crumbs that fall from their table. These are petty politicians, who assume leadership by nature of office, and they are forced to do so by "the powers that be." Had they manhood enough to cut adrift from the party, and to vote independently, they would have been on the political map. As it now stands the world does not know that there is a Negro in Minnesota (politically speaking). When they ask for representation, they are given a dust broom and a map—and these are credentials of leadership. They are entirely ignorant of the value of organization. The Negroes of Minnesota should be ashamed of their conditions. They are able to prevent such treatment at the hands of any party. It must come. The Twin City Star has advocated the independent movement, and has published its platform in each issue. What are you going to do about it.

The senatorial subcommittee on privileges and elections, which convened at Chicago to investigate the alleged fraud and corruption in the election of Senator William Lorimer, decided to proceed at this time with the taking of testimony, and not to postpone action until after the November elections, as urged by the senator's attorney, Elbridge Hanecy, at the first open session of the committee. twelve passengers on a street car on the Appalachian expedition line at Knoville, Tenn., were injured in a stampede that followed the burning out of a fuse. Mrs. A. S. J. Davis may die. She jumped and was trampled on. Sixteen persons lost their lives and thirteen others suffered injuries in the wreck two miles east o. Clayton, Kan., of west-bound Rock Island passenger train No. 27. Most of the dead and injured were in the smoker and one of the day coaches. The wreck was the result of a cloudburst which carried out a mass of earth at a long fill, washing out nearly a thousand feet of track. A work train on the Southern Indiana railroad was in collision with a passenger train a few miles south of Terre Haute, Ind., and 19 persons were injured, four of them perhaps fatally. Boodlers, grafters and legislative corruption are denounced in strong terms in the platform adopted by the Democratic state convention, held at East St. Louis, Ill.

The Dense administration, accused of broken promises on civil service, was denounced Charles A. White, Democratic representative whose confession that he received $1,000 for voting for Lorimer for United States senator precipitated the bribery and "jack-pot" scandals, repeated before the senatorial investigating committee which he said he had with Representative Joseph S.

Disobedience to orders by the crew of a freight car is said to have been the cause of the second interurban traction wreck within three days in Indiana, and the disaster cost the lives of six more and severe hurts to a score. A south-bound freight car crashed head-on into a north-bound passenger car on the Indianapolis and Peru division of the Indiana Union Traction company shortly after noon, two miles north of Tipton, Ind.

"It is our opinion that Porter Charlton is of unbound mind and liable to attacks of impulsive violence, and that his moral sense is pathologically defective. He should be taken to a hospital for the insane and there kept indefinitely." This is the conclusion reached by the alienists who examined the slayer of Mrs. Scott Castle, the actress, who was Charlton's wife, at Lake Como, Italy, last June.

A colored chambermaid stabbed and killed her employer, James Mayden, a New York hotelkeeper, when he discharged her. When the police arrived the woman was found dying with a stab wound and accused her victim Dr. William Colby Rucker, was reinstated as health commissioner of Milwaukee by the common council. At the request of Mayor Seidel the council rejected the resignation of Dr. Rucker, made out after he had been arrested on charges preferred by a young woman domestic, and importuned him to remain at the head of the board of health of the city.

I GET THERE AND NO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE JUST LINK AT THE MENU BAR RULED RECORD-HARP PROGRESSIVE FOR N. Y. GOVERNOR STIMSON NAMED TO HEAD TICK ET BY NEW YORK RE- PUBLICANS. Colonel Leads Fight and Completes His Triumph At Saratoga—Announces That He Will Struggle State Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. 29.—The Republican state convention named Henry L. Stimson of New York as its candidate for governor. The nomination of Mr. Stimson was one more victory for Col. Theodore Roosevelt, who personally led the fight for the nomination of his candidate, completing the unbroken series of triumphs from the moment the convention was called to order until its final adjournment. The remainder of the state ticket follows: The Ticket! For leutenant governor — Edward Schoeck. For secretary of state—Samuel S. Koenig, renominated. For state comptroller — James Thompson. For state treasurer — Thomas F Fennell. For state engineer—Frank M. Williams, renominated. For attorney general—Edward R. O'Malley, renominated. For associate judge of the court of appeals—Irving G. Vann, renominated. The Vote: The vote for governor stood as follows: Henry L. Stimson ..... 684 William S. Bennett of New York ..... 343 Thomas B. Dunn of Rochester 28 James B. McEwen of Albany 28 Susan 22 At the close of the convention James S. Wadsworth, Jr., speaker of the assembly, announced his with- drawal from the legislature, due to his personal views as to the length of time during which a member of the assembly should be a candidate for speaker. He has been speaker for five years. Mr. Wadsworth would not say that his retirement was due to the victory of the progressives. Roosevelt Is Master The close of the convention found the Roosevelt forces in complete mastery of the situation. It was the election of Colonel Roosevelt as temporary chairman Tuesday over Vice-President Sherman, which decided the issue between the colonel and the organization, but the old guard kept up its fight grimly until the end. Following the first rout of the organization came Colonel Roosevelt's dramatic and successful battle for the adoption of the platform of the progressives and his final nomination of Mr. Stimson. By the time the vote was taken the strength of the organization had been dissipated badly. Having no candidate to run, the organization determined light it threw the bulk of its vote to Mr. Bennett. As a rule the voting on the gubernatorial candidates followed the same division between progressives and the old guard as the vote for temporary chairman. Woodruff Geta Place. Chairman Timothy L. Woodruff, who failed of re-election in his own district, was elected from the second district. The election of a chairman from the progressives in place of Mr. Woodruff is expected, although no idea could be gained as to who the new chairman will be. Colonel Roosevelt said that he would take in the stump in the campaign. He said that he would try to speak in every county in the state, which he would not cancel his southern trip, which begins on Thursday of next week, or his trip to Iowa early in November. William Barnes, Jr., of Albany, who led the fight of the old guard against Colonel Roosevelt said: "The ticket is nominated and I am Wireless Telegraph Detector The torsional or twisting vibration of a fine iron wire under the action of magnetic lines of forces having a spiral direction is the basis of the novel wireless telegraph detector of Professor Rossi of Turin. The wire is stretched very near two permanent magnets with like poles adjacent. It is also placed in the center of a coil in which a helical flux is set up, and on rapidly alternating the current through the coil the wire twists back and forth, or has a rectangular rotary for the ticket. That is axiomatic. It is party government. I shall support the nominees of the convention and hope for the best. I expect that harmony will prevail in the party. The state convention is the supreme authority of the party. I believe in party government. I believe in acclosing in the will of the majority. In adopt the principle of direct nominations the party needs to feel the direction of radicalism which, if the tendency is not checked, will mean the advocacy later on of the initiative and referendum, direct legislation in other words, a pure democracy as advocated by Mr. Roosevelt in his speech on the direct nomination plank." SHEPARD TO LEAD DEMOCRATS Rochester, N. Y. Sept. 29.—The men who will head the Democratic state ticket this year have not yet been chosen. But Chairman John A. Dix of the state committee, who last week gave official impetus to the Gaynor boom by declaring that upstate sentiment tended strongly in that direction, says that he finds among the delegates an "undercurrent of feeling" toward Edward M. Shepard. After mentioning Mr. Shepard's name, the state chairman was asked what his attitude was on certain published criticisms of Mr. Shepard's alleged connection with the American Sugar Refining company in an advisory legal capacity. Shepard is Defended. Mr. Shepard, or those who watch for him, did not fail to hear of this sugested attack and presently there issued from his headquarters the following statement: "The statement that Mr. Shepard drew the sugar trust deed is absolutely without foundation. It was drawn by John E. Parsons in conjunction with Eilhu Root some years before Mr. Shepard's partnership with Mr. Parsons commenced. Several years afterwards, in 1890, Mr. Shepard became a junior partner of Mr. Parsons, but the sugar company was entirely Mr. Parsons' personal client. Much pressure has been brought to bear. Mr. Dix himself to consider the nomination for governor, but he declined. Charles F. Murphy, in the most extended statement he has voucafhed since he came to Rochester, reiterated that he has no candidate. The Democratic league met in the ballroom of the Seneca hotel and put itself on record in favor of the widest type of direct nominations. James S. Havens and Herman Ridder remain strong probabilities for the gubernatorial nomination, while the boom of Martin H. Glynn of Albany suddenly sprang into activity when the hotel corridors were flooded with literature describing his qualifications for the office. There was also some talk of Justice Martin L. Keogh of Westchester county. Pioneer Couple Die in South Farlbault, Minn., Sept. 29.—A message was received here from Ruskin, Florida, announcing the death of Mr. and Mrs. C. F.

TAWNEY EXPLAINS AVERS HIS OPPONENT WON THROUGH "KNOCKS" OF OPPOSITE PARTY, WHO VOTED REPUBLICAN TICKET Under the Present Primary Law This Could Not be Prevented.—Democratic Candidate Buck Is Winona. — After declaring that his defeat is directly attributed to the voting by the Democrats in the Republican primaries, Congressman Tawney, defeated on Tuesday, issued the following: "My defeat for nomination cannot be charged to the bolt of the Republicans. In seven of the 10 counties in this district, there was no contest for any Democratic nomination. One vote, therefore, in these counties would nominate the Democratic candidate. "The Democratic vote in these counties two years ago was over 7,000. At the primary election in these counties there were less than 150 Democratic votes cast. In a single precinct in one county there were 70 more Republican ballots voted than were cast for President Taft in the same precinct two years ago. "It will be seen, therefore, that the Democrats of the district have made the Republican nomination, as it was intended they should do when my opponent was selected only a short time before the time for filing expired and after the insurgents had spent more than three months in a fruitless endeavor to obtain a Republican to file as candidate against me. "The Democrats knew this was their only opportunity to accomplish my defeat, and they naturally took advantage of it. Under the former system of making nominations this would have been impossible." Buck Doules the Charges. Mr. Buck, the Democratic candidate, made the following statement refuting the charges: "It is probably true that some Democrats throughout the district called for Republican ballots. It is also true that some Republicans called for Democratic ballots. It is true also that many of the Democrats voting in the Republican primaries cast their ballots for Mr. Tawney and others for Mr. Anderson. "None of these Democratic votes, however, were cast for Republican candidates at the solicitation of any Democrat, but at the insistent importing of the Republican candidates for local offices who desired their help in securing the nominations. "Early in August I issued a statement which was widely published throughout the district in which I expressed the hope that the Democrats would resist the solicitation of this Republican friends and abstain from taking part in the Republican primaries. "The claim by Mr. Tawney that his defeat for the nomination was brought about by these Democratic votes is not borne out by the returns and it is not borne out by the voters of this district are the ones who are responsible for his defeat."

Duluth.—A gold strike of importance has been made on the famous Vermilion iron range of Minnesota, by the North American Mining company while exploring for iron ore. At a depth of 100 feet the shaft is bottomed in a ledge which yields gold at $22 to $2.60 per ton. The shaft was being sunk in what was supposed to be barren formation between two iron formations. The discovery of the gold was in a similar manner to the discovery of the rich silver deposits of the Cobalt. NEW MANKATO FACTORY. Hugo Shirt Co. Decides to Remove from St. Peter. Mankato.-The management of the Hugo Shirt company of St. Peter will move its factory to this city October 1. The entire lower floor of the Mason hall has been leased for that purpose.

SENSATION IN SIGHT Bemidji—Dr. Iris B. Derby, state chemist, is here from St. Paul as the most important witness in the suit brought by Matilda Akerberg against F. A. May for five thousand dollars damages for the death of her son, which she alleges resulted from the error on the part of a drug clerk employed by Mayo in filling a physician's prescription. Senator Peterson of Moorhead has charge of the case for Mrs. Akerberg, and E. E. McDonald, the former St. Paul attorney, defends Mr. Mayo. Step Will Be Proposed at the State Sanitary Convention. Minneapolis. — The Minnesota state board of health is preparing to advocate medical inspection for all students at the University of Minnesota. The first public step will be taken at the meeting of the Minnesota State Sanitary conference, when Dr. J. G. Cross, a member of the faculty of the University of Minnesota, will read a paper invocating such inspection. Dr. Cross will be supported by the state board of health and the members of the faculty of the school of surgery. Dean Westbrook of the college said that while he was not ready to an nounce plans, it undoubtedly was a necessary reform. Dean Westbrook Seas Need. Dean Westbrook Sees Need. "I cannot say anything yet until we have determined on a course of action," said Dean Westbrook. "If medical inspection is necessary in public schools where a few hundred are attending school, it is certainly necessary among 4,000 students." If the plans are adopted and medical inspection becomes a law in the university the school will be among the very first in the country to adopt the system. The meeting of the sanitary conference will be held Oct. 5, in the Unitarian church. It is thought that the mild epidemic of measles and typhoid fever at the agricultural college last year had something to do with the movement. Dr. Cross Formulates Plan. Dr. Cross has not outlined any definite plan, but is working on a general line that would, he thought, be beneficial. The inspection will be somewhat different from that used in the public schools owing to the different conditions. DEM. STATE COMMITTTEE. State, Congressional and Executive Bodies Are Appointed.

Duluth. — An early Sunday morning fire destroyed $100,000 worth of lumber, lath and singles at the West Duluth sawmill of Alger, Smith & Co. The wind blew away from the company's big sawmill, so that it was not endangered, but it was with great difficulty that 30 head of horses were gotten out of the company's barn in order to save them before the structure was completed. The origin of the fire is unknown at the time, but there are people who believe that the New Duluth firebug, who has destroyed $100,000 worth of property in four weeks, with six fires, has extended his operations to Duluth proper. It may be a matter of some significance that only a few hours before the big fire at Alger, Smith & Co.'s mill yard the fire department was summoned to the plant of the Scott-Graft Lumber company at the west end. This fire was easily extinguished before the flames spread far enough to do much damage. The lumber consumed at the Alger, Smith & Co. fire consisted of nearly 4,000,000 feet, the bulk of which was low grade stock. This loss amounted to about $50,000 and the loss on shingles and lath amounting to $50,000 and may exceed that amount, all covered by insurance. The figures are given out by the company and doubtless are conservative. ALLEGED ROBBER ARRAIGNED. Charles Adams, Caught in Wisconsin, Held to the Grand Jury. Lamberton.—Charles Adams, charged with robbing the Security State Bank of Seaforth last April, was given his preliminary hearing before Justice of Seaforth last April, located at Fond du Lac, Wis., and brought by Sherif Schueller, from whom he escaped shortly after the robbery.

Archer's Engagement By CLARISSA MACKIE Copyright, 1920, by Associated Literary Press Bert Desmond's hand came down on Archer's shoulder with a resounding "Congratulate you, old man," he exclaimed, heartily. "Thanks," said the other, with an amused smile; "but what's all this row about, anyway? "Your engagement, of course! Blake has told me. She's the—" yacht and a boat was hastily lowered and came to her rescue. She was entirely exhausted with the hard pull. Archer was a heavy man and he had been a dead weight in the one hand she could spare. Inside the launch she fainted and only revived when a distracted sailor dashing salt water in her face "Blake's a silly old chatterbox. I'm not going to marry anybody--you might congratulate me on that fact," interrupted Archer. "Funny, isn't it," mused Desmond, perplexedly. "Blake told me plain as could be that Archer was engaged to marry—" Archer interrupted this time with a laugh. "Oh, it must have beey my cousin, Tom Archer! Go and congratulate him, Bert--you can't make a mistake; he's always engaged to somebody. Going down to the club house? No? Very well, so long." Bob Archer went grinning on his way down to the yacht club while Desmond pursued a solitary walk along the board walk that led to the big hotel. A girl seated in an automobile car my looked toward the shop before which she was waiting with a bored air. Through the folds of the white veil that swathed her face the color in her cheeks burned like a stain. Her hands were firmly clenched in her lap and her whole attitude betrayed restrained imitation. Helen Dale had heard every word of the conversation between the two men. She knew that she was the girl who had been reported engaged to Tom Archer, but to hear her name linked with Bob Archer's had brought her such a pang of exquisite pain that she stood self-revealed on the instant. So that was the reason she could not fall in love with the dozen men who had succumbed to her beauty and charm! She had claimed for herself coldness, aloofness, indifference to all men—and it was merely because she had given her heart, unasked, into the keeping of Bob Archer. It was well known that Bob Archer did not care for women. Yachting, temples, military officers, fitted all his cravings. He lived at a club and his vacations were spent in the open, wherever there was good healthy outdoor sport. Helen's tastes were the same, but Archer's companions were mostly men and she had met him seldom, then when he had made one of his infrequent appearances in the ballroom. And Helen had fallen in love with him, unsought, undesired. A very agony of shame came upon her, but through it glowed a fierce joy that he had declared himself a confirmed bachelor. If he did not care for her there was nobody else. Then it was that Helen Dale's firtation with Tom Archer came to an abrupt end. A few days afterward Helen was swimming far out beyond the float that marked the limit of safe bathing. She was an expert swimmer and rejoiced in the cold salt water, the warmth the sun on her uplifted face and the resistance of the waves against her strength. Slender, graceful and muscular, she made a pretty sight, her white arms gleaming like marble against the blue sea, her crown of bronze-tinted hair shining in the sunlight. Her eyes were fixed on a distant buoy she had marked for a turning point. She did not see a man's form dive downward from a handsome yacht nearby, nor see his long strokes toward the same goal she was striving for. Helen was almost upon him when her attention was attracted by a low shout of distress, his brown arm shot upward and he sank before her eyes. It was not until Helen had reached the spot and grasped him firmly by his thick hair that she recognized Bob Archer. In that moment of suspense she forgot her tenderness for him, everything save the fact that he was a human being and that his life was in danger. The cramp that had seized him had left him only half conscious. His eyes were closed and he did not struggle. Before she could cry for assistance she could cry for assistance. GETS MUSIC OUT OF CLOCKS Happy Inspiration Which Enabled Mr. Stogleton to Do More Than Banish Discord. "I am our humble home's expert horologist," said Mr. Stogleton. "We have seven clocks and before I undertook the care of them they used to keep all sorts of time and strike no two together. "You'd hear one banging away and then close to it another and then perhaps another and then the rest would come straggling along irregularly, and then apparently they'd all got through you'd hear some loneness clock whacking away all by itself as if it had got lost in the shuffle.

She was entirely exhausted with the hard pull. Archer was a heavy man and he had been a dead weight in the one hand she could spare. Inside the launch she fainted and only revived when a distracted sailor dashed stinging salt water in her face and eyes. Then she sat up and looked anxiously at the inanimate form. She looked, fearfully, "I think he'll be all right, miss," said the coxswain reassuringly. "He must have been took with a cramp, for ordinarily Mr. Archer is a fine swimmer." Tears of thankfulness forced themselves to Helen's eyes and she made no reply. Once on board the yacht she declined the captain's urgent offers of hospitality. She did accept one of Archer's heavy ulcers and slipped it on. When she was assured that he was recovering and would soon be up and awake, she asked to be taken ashore. The next morning she left the hotel with her mother and returned to her home in the city. Helen Dale knew that Bob Archer must seek her out and express his gratitude for what she had done; that she might not meet him again she had fled. Bob Archer awoke to a rather unpleasant realization the morning after the rescue. He who had always been independent of women was indebted to one for his life. He blushed to recollect that a girl had come to his rescue and he cursed his own weakness in succumbing to a more cramp. But he set forth to the hotel, immaculate in white duck from top to toe, in his heart grateful to the plucky girl who had saved his life. He recalled Helen Dale as one of many other girls whom he had avoided as mere butterflies. When he inquired for Miss Dale at the office the clerk informed him of her departure. There was no doubt in his mind that she had gone to escape his thanks. Well, she was the right sort-some girls would have been gled of the opportunity to play the heroine. New York was not far distant, and in the eve of the same day, he presented himself at the Dale house. So unexpected was his coming that Helen was taken by surprise. She came down to find him in conversation with her mother. "I resolved you should not escape," he said, holding her hand in a warm friendly clasp. "I wonder if you know just how plucky you were yesterday!" "It was mere chance," evaded Helen, coloring. "Any one else would have done it. It was easy, too, for your boat came quickly to the rescue." "Nevertheless, if it had not been for you I would have lost my life," insister Archer. He remained for the evening, and was surprised at his own pleasure in the occasion. A day or two afterward he came again and took them for a spin in his new motor car. Then he came again and again. When the first crisp autumn winds were blowing Bob Archer awoke to the fact that he could not live happily without Helen Dale for his wife. He clapped on his hat and made his way to the Dale house. Helen was alone in the library, when he arrived, and he sat beside her in the dim firelit room and told his story. But in spite of the great joy in her eyes she shook her head. "I know how you feel, Mr. Archer. It is natural that you should mistake gratitude for love, and that you should offer me the life I saved, but—" Something in the flicker of emotion that crossed her face brought him close beside her. "Helen, look at me!" he commanded, taking her hands in his. Slowly she turned until her eyes met his. "What do you see there, darling— so far you have been so softly gratitude or love?" he asked, softly. Her glance before his gaze, and for the first time since her heart had gone out of her keeping she was radiantly happy. "Love," she whispered, softly, and then to give him a glad I had the chance to have your life. We might never have known, each other, Bph." got all these clocks regulated now so that they keep time accurately and I've got 'em all set now to the correct time with only slight differences among them, a matter of seconds only, as will make them strike together most effectively. "Some are quick strikers and some strike slowly and I don't want them all to strike together in a mere jumble. So I have strung them along just a little so as to make a variety of tonal effects and yet of harmony with no gaps. From the time the clocks begin to strike there is no moment when there is not music in the house till the clocks get through. And then in our neighborhood there are two tower clocks that are correctly kept and when our clocks are striking their music is punctulated by those tower clocks' sonorous boom." A Later Mark. "Your baby isn't as pretty as ours." "Maybe not, but it is a this year's model." JOHN KLING STILL HOLDS HIS OWN JOHN H. Catcher Kling, of Chicago Cubs. When Catcher Johnny Kling patched up his differences with the Chicago Cubs last spring there were quite a few baseball fans who predicted that he would not return to the form he had previously displayed. It was said that he had been out of the game for a whole season, that he had not kept himself in good shape, and a lot of other things. But he has played all of the skeptics. He has played as good ball this year as he ever did before. This has been displayed by the way he has played since Captain Chance's forced retirement, owing to a bad "Charley-Horse." While Jimmy Archer has been playing first base during the absence of the captain-manager all of the back-stopping has developed on Kling. He has not only fielded his position in masterly fashion, but he has ben hitting the ball hard. It is almost a certainly that Kling will do the most of the watching during the series for the world's championship probably opening in Chicago on Oct. 16.

With the retirement of Catcher Frank Bowerman, baseball loses one of its most eccentric characters. Bowerman has been playing in the bigger leagues longer than many of the other players in the same company today have been living. He made his debut years and years ago, and has played in fast company continuously since. His best work was done for the New York Giants, with whom he played when they were at the pinnacle of their fame. Bowerman has always been a lifely, scrappy player, up to his neck in the struggle all the way. He left the Giants and took a whirl at the managerial end of the game in Boston, but his Beaneyers, after making a glorious start, fell by the wideside when 5 Catcher Frank Bowerman. the race grew warm. Reports say that he trained his men too fine early in the season. At any rate he left Boston before last season was over, and announced that he had retired from the game. Later he joined the Indiapolis club, and was with them again this year. Recently he left the team and went to his home in Michigan. Steffen to Coach Indiana Stephen to Coach Indiana. Walter Steffen, Chicago half-back, quarter-back and captain, is to succeed Sheldon as coach at Indiana university after this season. This rumor gained credence yesterday at Indianapolis when it was announced that the Maroon star would assist Sheldon this season. It is a well-known fact that Sheldon will retire this season to practise law in Chicago, having coached the Crimson six years when the last game is played this season. O'Connor on Wagner Jack O'Connor thinks that Hans Wagner is the greatest thrower in the game. He is and has been the best thrower in the game, according to the St. Louis manager, since he broke into the game. There are many others who think the same as O'Connor in spite of the fine showing of the youngsters who have come up in the last three or four years. Wasmund to Coach Texas. Former Quarterback Wasmund of Michigan university will coach the Texas university football squad at Austin this fall. he has played since Captain Chanco's forced retirement, owing to a bad "Charley-Horse." While Jimmy Archer has been playing first base during the absence of the captain-manager all of the back-stopping has devolved on Kling. He has not only fielded his position in masterly fashion, but he has been hitting the ball hard. It is almost a certainly that Kling will do the most of the catching during the series for the world's championship probably opening in Chicago on Oct. 16. NOTES of the DIAMOND Four triple plays have been made in the National league this season. Kid Eiberfeld turned his ankle and was not spiked by Ty Cobb in the recent series between the Tigers and Senators. President Ban Johnson is after the owners of the tall-end clubs in the American league and wants them to get busy signing good players. Oldring of Philadelphia Americans has the record for being at bat the greatest number of times. His record is 476. Lajole is now with 473. Cobb is credited with only 442 times at bat. Dan Murphy of the Athletics is said to have the season's long-distance batting record. He will have to keep traveling perty fast if he wants to keep out of Schulte's way from now on. Pat Livingstone is touted as the star catcher of the Athletics. He will likely do most of the backstopping in the world's series, but he will have to travel some to get an even break with Kling. Catcher Ainsmith of the Senators is touted by the Washington scribes as a wonder. The new man is filling a big hole in the team just now on account of the crippled condition of Charlie Street. Umpire BILL "Dineen, who used to be more or less pitcher, says withers not recrine on floor beds of ease. Winning or losing, they do more worrying than other ball players, Bill thinks. Lee Ford Tannhill thinks that the Cubs will be bothered more by Cy Morgan than by any of the other pitchers of the Athletic staff. "There never was a team that disliked a spitball pitcher more than the Cubs do," said Tanny. Dubue and Rock Island played a nineteen-inning game the other day in Rock Island, and Pitcher Cavet of the son's record for the Three-1 league by striking out 23 men. Shortstop Darringer of the Dubue team had 12 assists without an error. Grantland Rice, the famous baseball writer of the south, has picked an all-star team of southern players. Catcher Sid Smith of the Atlanta team and Outfielder Joe Jackson of the New Orleans team are two of the men Rice has picked on his team, and both of them are to join the Naps next year. Doc White will head a quartet of singers made up of himself, Hofman and Sheckard of the Cubs and Aaddle Joss of the Naps. This should be a real attraction for vaudeville during the long winter season, for all of these men can sing. White's own song, "Little Puff of Smoke, Good Night," will be one of the songs that the quartet will sing. The Cubs will have just enough exercise in the closing week of the National league schedule to keep them in practice for the world's series. President Murphy says he will not ask Stanley Robinson of the Cardinals to move up that series with the Cubs on the final week so that it will keep the local a week a longer than the athletics. Hal Chase got his start by accident. The Los Angeles team did not think much of Chase, but one day the first baseman was unable to play, and Chase was sent out just to "fill in". Chase made two doubles in that game, and the team was kept at that station, that was kept up by the New York Americans, where he has taken rank as the greatest first sacker in the league. HOW PLANK GOT HIS START Bimply Closed His Eyes and Cut Loose —Afterwards Studied the Game and Pitchers. BY EDWARD & PLANK They all say I got my start the day of the battle of Gettysburg, but they exaggerate somewhat. I was born in Gettysburg in 1875, and that gave the boys a chance to say things. I admit the 1875 without trying to get away and scalp half a dozen years off my age as some of them do. At any rate I think I am rather a freak as a baseball player because I seldom have heard of any case anything like my own. As I told you I was born in Gettysburg and I played some baseball around there in an amateur way, and without giving the game much thought. I started to college about the time most of the other fellows are getting enough. I was twenty-five when I was began pitching for the Gettysburg college team, and I was big and strong and fast and wild and inexperienced and everything else that goes to make up a college pitcher. I simply shut my eyes and cut loose and Edward 8. Plank. most of those who didn't strike out got bases on balls, and I have suspected since that a lot of them struck out there because I escape from standing up there at the bat. Seriously I think the real reason for my start was that I was older, stronger and better developed than the average college man. That made me stand out among them and it attracted the attention of professional clubs. I had not thought of baseball as a profession at all until offered a job, and I joined the Athletics in May, 1901, after school closed, knowing about as much about major league ball as I know about who will make a three base hit in the morning game next Decoration day. Suddenly I saw that there was more to it than throwing as hard as possible and curving them. I saw I would have to do some thinking and I began to study the game. Querely enough I went wrong right away. I was guessing wrong, but luckily for me I had enough speed and shoots to hang on by sheer power until I learned more. I worked and studied hard at the game, watched the other pitches, picked up their tricks and began to pitch with much exertion and strain and still get results. If I had gone on the way I started I would have been out of it in two seasons, and I'm still here. On the other hand, if I had known as much when I started about pitching, I'd be here a long time. NOT TO TRY FOR DAVIS CUP No American Team Be Sent to Australia and Preparatory Matches Are Called Off. No American team will be sent to Australia this year to play the holders of the Davis cup for the fardous international lawn tennis trophy. This announcement was made in New York the other day by R. D. Wrenn, vice-president of the American Lawn Tennis association, who said that the decision had just been reached, owing to the inability of T. C. Bundy, the California tennis star, to make the trip to the Antipodes. It had been planned to have Bundy and M. E. McLoughlin, another brilliant player and also a Californian, represent America in the contest with the Australians for the Davis cup in case America won the preliminaries with the English challenging team which were to be played here. Bundy, however, telegraphed that he had found that his business engagements would not admit of his taking the trip to Australia. There being no possibility of an American team entering the lists to play the Australians, the proposed preliminary matches with an English team, which were to be played here to decide whether England or America should send the challenging team, also were necessarily abandoned. The British and Australian tennis officials have been notified. Ball Players Scarce "It's a queer thing," said President Navin of the Detroit club, "that out of the 80,000,000 people of the United States and the 8,000,000 of Canada, that there are less than 200 first-class ball players. Probably there are actually more capable of playing in the big leagues, but discovering them is what keeps a lot of scouts and pocketbooks busy." Berlin Bara Mat Game. Public displays of wrestling have now been added to the long list of things "verboten" by the Berlin police. The reason of this new mandate is said to be the obviously parried nature of several "championship" contests which have recently taken place, one of which led to a disturbance among the spectators.

Constipation Vanishes Forever Prompt Relief--Permanent Cure CARTER'S LITTLE NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT "My little son, a boy of five, broke out with an itching rash. Three doctors prescribed for him, but he kept getting worse until we could not dress him any more. They finally advised me to try a certain medical college, but its treatment did no good. At the time I was induced to try Cuticura he was so bad that I had to cut his hair off and put the Cuticura Ointment on him on bandages, as it was impossible to touch him with the bare hand. There was not one square inch of skin on his whole body that was not affected. He was one mass of sores. The bandages used to stick to his skin and in removing them it used to take the skin off with them, and the screams from the poor child were heartbreaking. I began to think that he would never get well, but after the second application of Cuticura Ointment, and with the third and fourth applications the sores commenced to dry up. His skin peeled off twenty times, but it finally yielded to the treatment. Now I can say that he is entirely cured, and a stronger and healthier boy you never saw than he is to day, twelve years or more since the cure was effected.
