VOL. 27.N041 OPEN LETTER To the District Republicans: I am a candidate for delegate. I am for Snator J. B. Foraker against the field. I have nothing to hide, and neither do I equivocate. Quite often in the daily press you will notice that certain men will not run on my ticket. It is easier for them to unload themselves than it is for me to unload them. I have burdens of my own without carrying other people's burdens. I am in the field to stay; either to rise or go down with the man who has defended the rights and liberties of ostracised citizens. I want to inform you that the field is full of traitors or candidates who are sailing under false colors. They are wearing the armor of Taft, but it is covered with the coat of Foraker. The Flathers ticket is the creation of the lily white Democrats in Riggs Bank, otherwise known as the silk stocking Democrats, who don't believe in equality of citizenship. The Flahers ticket means that colored Americans in this city have no rights that lily whites are bound to respect. A vote for this ticket means the continued enslavement of colored Americans in this city. When has Mr. Flathers ever participated in Republican meetings? Who ever heard of him being a Republican? This being a fact, his associates and companions must be judged accordingly. The Wilder ticket, or otherwise, Dr. Wilder, is under the wing of Capers, Inetrnal Revenue Collector, Treasury Department. That means Taft, and not Foraker. There is another ticket has made every effort to reach Mr. Hitchcock, to which certain candidates refused to subscribe. It is not necessary for me to name them, but "he who runs may read." My ticket will be complete in a few days, and at the proper time it will be launched in no uncertain sound. There is no uncertainty in the Home Rule ticket. When you vote for this ticket you vote for manhood rights. You uphold those fundamental principles that all true Americans enjoy. The sycophant, the knave and the coward are everywhere. I want to say that my opposers are the blacklegs, the gamblers, cut-throats and three-card-monte men who have no reputation save among cut-throats. I am an American citizen who wears no man's collar. I believe in the Constitution of the United States when that instrument protects those whose blood flowed so freely in the wars of the late rebellion and those men who went up San Juan Hill and saved the honor and reputation of this republic. I am opposed to any man for the presidency who has endeavored to disgrace colored Americans and has endeavored to make one portion of this American nation freemen and the other portion slaves. I appeal to all true citizens who believe in manhood rights to see that their votes are honestly registered and counted. I want to say further to all Republicans that the time has come for suffrage in the District of Columbia. If there is any honesty in colored Americans that will not forget their obligation and their duty to the man who has made sacrifices to uphold colored American manhood. The emoluments of office should not be a bribe to cause colored Republicans to forget their honor, their reputation, and their duty. If the Negro is bribed in this contest he should never look for another friend, and what little honor he now has will go from him forever. Let every Republican be on the lookout, and in this contest let posterity applaud their deeds. DR. SHEPARD IN MEMPHIS TENNESSEE Speaks to a Large Audience Friday Night on the Sunday School as the Greatest Means for the Uplift of the Race—Speaks in Atlanta Next Tuesday. In his speech which is being extensively quoted Dr. Shepard states that the only thing that will solve the race problem is religious education. The Golden Rule is the panacea for evils. There are some who believe that the higher education will solve it and lift the race higher, while others believe that industrial education is the great solver. It will never do it. Industrial education alone makes man a simple beast of burden, robs him of the power to thing and reason. The man who is industrially trained alone has done little to lift the race. The speaker said he could not recall a single example. The rallying cry should be change the man and then the environments will be changed by the man. So the leader DR. JAMES E. SHEPPARD. who advocates just a single idea for the uplift of the people hinders instead of helps. In speaking of temperance Dr. Shepard said that colored Americans should follow it strictly if they hope to be looked upon as good citizens. No people ever becomes great by frequent use of intoxicants. The head should be clear, declared this young orator. Therte is no man in the United States who is more serviceable to colored Americans than Dr. Shepard. He is a young man of ability and perseverance who si doing as much to elevate his people as any man in this country. He is honest, which is hisatest forte. He loves his people and they have confidence in him. The South applauds his work nd in Durham, N. C., his home, no man stands higher in the estimation of his fellow citizens. His Sunday School work among his people is very effective. His methods are en- ```markdown ``` tirely new; different from all others that the representative colored Americans adopt. AGAINST TAFT Lake Charles, La., February 22, '08. Editor of The Bee: Will you allow me space in your most valuable paper to say a few words to my colored race of people of the city of Cleveland, Ohio, and the Congressional District which Congressman Burton of Ohio represents? I see by the Houston Daily Chronicle of the 18th of February, 1908, that Congressman Burton has been nominated as a Republican from his district by the Taft forces. Will it be in keeping with the Foraker forces to vote the Burton ticket? I think not. Because the Burton forces have done everything in their power to drive Senator Foraker from public life through Mr. Roosevelt's advice. How can the colored people of Ohio and the people of this country stand by a man like Burton or Taft? Respectfully, R. C. Clayton, 730 Clarence St., Lake Charles, La. Hon. Henry Cox, former member of the Legislature of the State of Virginia, has recovered from his attack of la grippe. WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY MARCH 7, 1908. What I Saw And He I am not surprised to know that there are colored men in this city who have doubts about the nomination of Senator J. B. Foraker. When he took up the cause of the black man he never entertained any doubt. He saw that the black man was oppressed, hence he had no apologies to make. I shall be glad to see more gratitude in the colored American. He has too many doubts for his own good. The coming contest for the election of delegates to the National Republican Convention is more amusing than it is serious. There are several dozen candidates who declare that they have a right to be elected. Just what claim they have on the people will no doubt be developed later on. Mr. Sidney Bieber is laboring harder [Image of a man with dark hair and a white shirt]. now than he has ever in his life. One woulld imagine that the entire earth was upon his shoulders. Well, after he has announced his rules and regulations they will look like mountains to some and a mole to others. Before the end of the contest there will be another smash-up in tickets. The Horner-Flathers ticket will receive a jolt next if it has not already. There is no more show for this ticket to be elected than it is for a jaybird to pass through the eye of a needle. There will be a contest at the Chicago Convention beyond all doubts. The Dolliver bill is like "Banquo's ghost"—it will not down. It will die a natural death and the people will cremate it and mourn over its ashes. There is a certain Negro supervising principal at his old tricks again. I am of the opinion that the Superintendent will be compelled to teach him a lesson so that he will be able to understand good citizenship and common decency. Take some colored people and give them a little authority, then they lose their head. A common, poor white man is precisely like some elevated colored men. There are a few candidates in the field for members of the Board of Education. I believe that the judges will be more careful the next time. Rounder. In an address delivered May 30, 1905, at Arlington, Va., Memorial Day, Hon. J. B. Foraker never had in mind that he woud be compelled to defend the colored soldiers, said in concluding his address these words: Race Problem. But that has been finally dealt with, so far as national legislation is concerned. Time, patience, patriotism and the education of experience may be necessary to practically, and in reality, to secure to the black man, everywhere, all his legal rights and privileges; but his mental and moral growth give the highest assurance that he will eventually vindicate the statesmanship that made him a freeman and a citizen of the republic; while his loyalty and heroism as shown in every war in which we have allowed him to participate will win for ```markdown ``` him a triumph over all the prejudices that stand between him and the door of hope. In this cemetery lie hundreds of his race who gallantly wore the uniform, as thousands are gallantly wearing it today, but nowhere in all this broad land can a single one be found, among either the living or the dead, who ever raised his hand against our flag. It is not possible that in this country where there is such generous recognition of human rights such a race can fail to achieve success. No man can do, or is doing, so much to accomplish this as the black man himself. Education, industry and frugality, with his other good qualities, will more and more command respect and secure advancement. His progress since Emancipation has been phenomenal, and under all the circumstances he may well take courage for the future; while every comrade of the Union Army may be assured that what he did for that people was not done in vain. We have other questions, and many of them, and always will have, for we are an active, energetic, progressive people, cevr pressing forward to the accomplishment of some great purpose; but whether they are the labor questions, the trust questions, the control of corporations, the regulation of the rail- roads, the maintenance or the revision of our industrial policies, or something else, our differences with respect to them are not likely to be affected. by State lines, and probably not seriously by party lines, as we have heretofe known them, for the indications are that as to all these subjects a strong spirit of Americanism will determine what shall be done. This is the most hopeful sign of the day. Where genuine Americanism prevails there cannot be danger of any very widespread of populism, communism, anarchism, or any other heresy that would undermine and overthrow our institutions. Coupled with the saving common sense of the American people, which has never yet failed us, this national spirit is at once our greatest shield from harm and our greatest incentive to the highest and noblest endeavor. It is no exaggeration, but only the sober truth, to say that we were never so strong, never so prosperous, never so contented, never so respected, neve so powerful to do good in the world, and never doing so much good, either at home or abroad, as we are today And great as is the present, greater by far, exceeding all power of description, iss the career that lies before us. It will be seen that he was right on the race question then; he is now. It is nothing new for Senator Foraker to "render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto God the things that are God's." FOR LARGE STATE COMMITTEES The fundamental idea must be to have the State committee large, and not a small knot of selfish persons. The administration, of course, can protect itself absolutely as to the qualifications of the persons recommended for office. If they are not good men they will be rejected and the State committee must recommend others. The plan above stated is not novel. It should always have existed in principle and practice, but the tendency nowadays in the Republican party is to concentrate power in very few hands. This tendency works toward the destruction of the party in State and nation. It is time to revert to first principles. There are undoubtedly enough good and honest and true Republicans to hold all the offices of any note in the Southern States, but the present system does not bring them to the front, but does bring forth the neutrals, pretenders, and Democrats. As things are going on, there will be more than one delegation to the next National Convention from nearly every Southern State. This lamentable result, which, while it will not change any nomination in that convention, will tend to defeat the nominees at the polls, should be avoided by the simplest and fairest possible method, which is above suggested. As the project for disestablishing Republican organization in the Southern States progressed along lines of party policy, exactly, contrary to those whoch I believed to be wise, it soon became apparent that even an easier method than Mr. Hanna's of controlling the delegates from the South to the National Convention had been created. As the party in each State would have practically no organization whatever, two or three referees or advisers in each State, together with the oeffeholders, could represent themselves to be the Republican party and control all Southern delegates to national conventions. DR. WILLIAM TINDALL Dr. William Tindall, secretary to the Board of District Commissioners, has compiled a very valuable pamphlet concerning "Methods of Municipal Taxation and Assessment in the District of Columbia, Completed to and Including the Fifty-ninth Congress." Dr. Tindall is one of the most energetic officials under the local government, and a man of broad experience. The Bee congratulates Dr. Tindall for this valuable pamphlet, which will no doubt be of benefit to the people. The cry is "Negro domination!" and that is not true. But it will take God to tell the real cause. Have some respect for the devil because he does not draw the color line. (Extract from a speech by Bishop H. M. Turner). Good boy! D. G. M. W. H. Underwood has been presented with a fine jewel of his office by James H. Hill Lodge of Masons, by Grand Chaplain Rev. Shelton Miller. Past Masters J. W. King and A. P. Winslow received jewels (past masters!) for services rendered. There are a lot of hypocrites going around the city. All got religion, to hear them tell it. PARAGRAPHIC NEWS PARAGRAPHIC NEWS By Miss Beatrix L. Chase. The bill amending the immigration laws so as to provide for the deportation of alien felons failed to pass the House of Representatives. Rev. Dr. Woodrow, pastor of First Congregational Church, said in his lecture, "A Prosperous Farmer," at the church: "All boys and girls should be born in the country and live there till they are at least twelve years old." The anarchists have been holding high carnival and are getting in their work in no uncertain manner. Mr. Bryan had the headache, and doubtless a worse heartache. Politics bring on all the aches, and often produce shakes. Dr. A. O. Reid, who graduated from Howard's Dental Department last year, has begun practice in Baltimore. Miss Julia Seames, who was ill at Freedmen's, was a teacher in the public schools of Charleston. Miss B. Marie Wade, of this city, graduated last month with honors from the Girls' High School in Brooklyn, N. Y., and has entered the Teachers' Training School to prepare herself for a teacher. The Chicago Conservator says the 8th Illinois, a colored regiment with colored officers to and including colonel, is the best in the State of Illinois. Miss Mattie Bowen and Miss A. D. Madre delivered lectures in Baltimore last Sunday afternoon at Trinity A. M. E. Church. The Woman's Peace Circle, of New York, denounced Mr. Roosevelt for supporting the practice of rifle shooting for school boys. A joint resolution was adopted by the House of Representatives last Monday, donating to the State of Okla-homa "The first flag bearing forty-six stars." Prosecuting Attorney Lewis Rhoton in the courthouse at Little Rock, Ark. last Saturday night, is reported having said that United States Senator Jeff, Davis was "the most consummate liar and demagogue that ever disgraced the United States Senate. Mr. H. L. Scott, father of Mr. Emmett J. Scott, has resigned the position as letter carrier of Houston, Texas. He filled the position over eighteen years, and assigns no reason for giving up the position. The revival at Shiloh Baptist Church of Atlantic City, in which Rev. B.Johnson, of this city, was engaged, has been a signal success. The monthly statement of the Government for the month just past shows a deficit of $8,405,118; the receipts for the month were $48,324,899, and expenses $56,730,007. Representative Moon of Texas said on the floor of the House last Tuesday that "the Republican party for more than forty years had fostered false theories, and it is the most sublime, the most stupendous fakir in all the history entertained representatives of the Baltimore, Md., and Richmond, Va., societies at True Reformers' Hall last Saturday night. Lawyer David Dickson, forty-four years old, a prominent resident of Baltimore, Md., died last week in that city. He was born in Norfolk, Va. Miss O. Tennyson, of this city, is succeeding very nicely with her work in the primary department of the school at Milford, Del. The PhiladelphiaBranch of the Howard University Alumni Association held their annual banquet the 21st ultimo at Hotel Rudolph, in that city. It is stated that three hundred members were received into the Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist Church, of which Rev Simon P W. Drew is pastor, at the morning service of last Sunday. The entire extreme northeastern section of Tampa, Fla. proper was destroyed by fire last Sunday. Over three hundred buildings were consumed by the flames. W. P. Hart, a lawyer of this city, who arrived at Oklahoma the latter part of February( left the train when he reached the Oklahoma line and drove to Guthrie rather than ride in the "Jim Crow" car. The Senate has passed a bill appropriating $135,000 to provide a crypt in the chapel of the Naval Academy as a permanent resting place for the body of John Paul Jones. The proposed bill to levy tax upon all felines in the District of Columbia was discussed at the meeting of the Friendly Hand Society, which was later organized to protect the cats in this city, the capital of the nation.

Only Surviving Child of Famous + Abolitlonist Still in Vigorous * Health—Fought with Father at Battle of Osawatomic. .Akron, O.—Jason Brown celebrated his elghty-fifth birthday at his home, four miles west of ttiis city, the other day. He Is the only surviving son of the famous John Brown who started the civil war in Kansas nearly a de- eade before Fort Sumter was fired “upon, who led “free soldiers” at Osawatomie, and who-was hanged for his raid on Harper's Ferry a few years later. Jason Brown was with his father in the Kansas warfare, and he carried arms at Osawatomle. He believed in his father and bad falth-In the cause of freedom. The hanging of his fa- ther and the slaughter of his brothers ‘and other relatives made him some- thing of a recluse and a wanderer until a few years ago, when advanc- ing age caused him to settle down. He took up his residence here on the farm conducted by his son. ‘The birthplace of Jason Brown was in Hudson village, this county, not more“than 15 miles distant from the place on which he now makes his home. He was the eldest of 20 chil- dren, His father, John Brown, * de scended from Puritan stock, was a stem man, and succeeded in instilling into the members of his family faith in himself and enthusiasm in behalf of the cause to which he felt bound by divine appointment. After a varled-experience In the vI- cinity of Akron and later in New York, where John Brown undertook the supervision of a colony of lib: erated slaves, the Browns were at- tracted to Kansas. There a vast ter- ritory had just been opened up to set- tlement, and there was fierce riyalry among the settlers as to whether it should be considered as a slave-hold: Ing territory or free country. In part it was the controversy that drew them, and then, in addition, there was the hope that they might prosper in the new country, So John Brown, with Gis fb A ay ay UN ; . ee, yy /e his numertas sons and sons-in-laws and thelr families, removed to Kan- sas In the early ‘50s and settled near Osawatomle. Ardent abolitionists and making no concealment of thelr principles, they were soon singled out by proslavery neighbors for abuse and persecution. Thelr crops were destroyed. Thelr building were burned, A son, Freder- ick, was murdered on the public high way, and another member of the famt- ly was driven hopelessly insane by cruel treatment while a prisoner In the hands of their enemies. * Finally,-one night in May, 1856, John Trown led a little band of free soldiers against the settlement of Osawatomie. If his band were several of his chil- dren and other relatives. This night attack became known as the massacre of Osawatomic. , Jasoh Brown was not in the first fight, but he bore arms under his fa- ther at the battle of Osawatomle, which came as a sequel, in August of the same year. And he remembers that he killed his man. After Osawatomle, John Brown and his family returned east. The father was determined to prepare for his later raid on Harper's Ferry, which he was convinced would mean an upris. Ing that would set all the slaves free Jason did not joln him, however. He had had enough;of war. ‘The fact that his life was saved by a Kentuckian, when he had been cap- tured and was about to be hanged, had a softening effect on the heart of Ja son Brown. He no longer hated the south. * Jason Brown {s still‘ vigorous. A short time ago he made a trip to Put in-Bay to visit the aged widow of hi: brother John, Jr. In the summer time he bustles himself about the farm, hoes In the garden or takes long walk: down the winding country roads. Hi: dog, Wolf, was his companion {o1 years, but Wolf died recently and the old man now has to walk alone. ‘At Jason Brown's home are many relies of the early days in Kansas anc at Harper's Ferry. Among them al . the thing he prizes most highly is ar old iron wash basin made by his fathe: many years ago at Meadville, Pa. No only did his father make It with hi own hands, but the old basin mad the trip to Kansas and was In the bat Ue of Osawatamie, where water car ried in it was used to bathe th wounds of the injured. It has beer _ through three fires, and {5 -badl; cracked and disfigured, but tha makes it only the more valuable In th eyes of its owner. GOOD WAY TO SERVE ORANGES. By New Method the Best Results Wil! Be Obtained. _ If you are going to have oranges cut up with other fruit, try this way of fixing them and see if it fs not an Im- provement over the old way of pecl- ing the orange and cutting it up as ‘best you can with skin and sometimes seeds In it, Cut the orange In half, take a sharp knife and, cut around each section, then filp the pulp out of Its quarter. Squeeze the skin, see all the juice you have, and how nicely the orange looks in comparison to the old way. . ‘Use a rich biscuit crust for your apple turnovers; the filling should be cooked down until very thick. Roll out the dough, cut in circles about the size of a coffee saucer, put on each a large spoonful of the sauce, wet the edges of the crust, fold over and pinch well together, that none of the sauce may ooze out. These may be elther fried in deep fat or baked In a quick oven; If the latter method is chosen, try sprinkling them quickly with a mixture of cinnamon and granulated sugar. 2 o> _ ‘These delicacies are made by pour- ing on the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs a generous half pint of scalding hot cream, and without beating, stir in a heaping tablespoonful of powdered ‘sugar, and a few drops of orange julce. ‘To beat the mixture after the eggs are added would destroy the delicious consistency of the custards. Pour at once into oranmental Ilttle souffle dishes and bake, standing In a pan of hot water, in a moderate oven un- til the custards are firm. Serve m the dishes at about blood heat on a pretty saucer resting on a lace paper dolly, accompanied by small squares of sunshine cake, | CARE OF HOUSE PLANTS. "Simple Directions That “Are Worth Heeding and Remembering. | Be careful not to overwater them. . To find out {f they need water rap ‘the side of the pot with your knuckles. If it rings clear and sharp the plant needs watering. If there is a dull sound the soil {s already moist enough. Let the soll get fairly dry before wetting it again. . Plants thrive much better if not permanently kept in jardinleres. The average living room is too hot and dry for growing things. They are best kept {n a cool room and moved to hot rooms only for temporary deco- ration. The extremes of day and night In a window sill are too much for most plants. Carry them into the middle of the room at night. $ Keep a pan of water In the room where they are kept; give them plant food; spray them free from dust, and keep a sharp lookout for pests.

Hollandaise Sauce, This 1s really a warm mayonnaise, using butter instead of olive oll. It is the best sauce for serving with sal- mon or other boiled fish if you desire it hot. It requires a quarter pound butter, half a lemon, the yolks of two eggs, a little salt and a half tea: Spoonful of white pepper. The secret of {ts successful making is to pre- serve an even temperature. The sauce should not approach the boiling polnt, as the eggs would cook and the ‘Sauce curdle.

One quart celery “(use for this out- side stalks and root ends), one small onion, bolling water, four level table- spoons butter, three level tablespoons flour, one pint hot milk, one pint veal or chicken broth, one cup peas, salt and pepper to taste. Cover the celery and onion with boiling water and cook slowly for two hours. Strain, press- ing through all possible.

KEEP THE FLOOR POLISHED. Simple Method That Takes Place of Continual Work. Hard wood floors are beginning to look a little the worse for the win- ter's wear. It's always a problem to keep them looking well without a con- tinual polishing performance, summer or winter. A treatment which has stood the.test of experience Is this: First wash the floor well and let it dry. Then go over it with a cloth dipped from time to time in kerosene oll, which both cleanges and peno- trates the floor so that less of the dolled oll is required. The boiled all finish should then be prepared. To make this, take two quarts of bolted linseed oll, put beeswax the size of half an egg and boll together until melted and thoroughly mixed. Care should be taken In doing this, as both materials are inflammable. While the oll {¢ stilt warm apply with a wide paint brush. It Is much easier than keeping up a war pollsh.

Set in a warm place until the’ contents are working and foamy, then lay in the fce chest until wanted. One yeast cake makes three bottles of koumtss, so It Is well to make several bottles at one time. Protect Clothes. To prevent the universally lked Gretchen apron from becoming solled and wet 0 quickly by coming fn con- tact with sink and washboard, stitch a casing on wrong side ‘at waist line, Insert tape, draw snugly and tle. Tack tape securely in center of front to keep it from slipping out when untied. Stuffed Chicken Baked with Ham. Order two two-pound chickens. Clean and stuff in the usual way. Rub with salt and place one-half pound bam cut in thin slices on the breasts and tle it in place with a string. Place tn a baking pan and bake fn a moder. ate oven until tender. Baste often with butter and hot water mixed. When done remove to a hot platter, surround ‘with the ham and pour over a gravy. How the District Will Be Divided. The District of Columbia will be di- vided into twenty-two districts, as fol- lows: First District—All that part of the conuty of Washington, outside the lim- ‘its of the cities of Washington and Georgetown, lying east of Lincoln ave- nue and Bunker Hill road. Second District—All that part, of the county of Washington, outside the citie? of Washington and Georgetown, lying west of Lincoln avénue and Bunker Hill road. Third District—All that part of the city of Georgetown lying west of High street. Fourth District—All the part of the city of Georgetown lying east of High pe | Fifth District—All that part of the city of Washington lying west of twen- ty-first street west.

His mother and ‘two young’ r brothers escaped to Bre- mon and later were given assistance “by relatives in Fort Dodge and were able to reach here. Their property ‘was confis-ated by the czar, After several weeks In a prison at Odeses young Balanorsky .was called into court, and although he plead his own case rnd was praised for his ora: fery before the magistrate, he was sentenced to a life of servitude in a military p:lson In Siberia.

London.—The Ship tavern, one of the most famous of London's riverside fons, in Greenwich, has closed its doors after an existence extending back to the days of the creat English Statesman, Willlam Pitt, who de- nounced the war against the American colonies and after whom was named Fort Pitt, from which the city of Pit{sburg takes its name. It was at the Ship tavern that Pitt instituted the dinners during his time of 16 years as a member of the ministry. In the days when Greenwich was a fashionable riverside resort the Ship pee : "| ERE! Eel FF — Soa ———— aye A tavern became known all over the world. It was while William Pitt was leader of the ministry 120 years ago that he introduced the custom of the yearly gathering together at the close of the parliamentary session the cabl- net ministers, the judges of the higher courts and the members of the gov- ernment to partake of a banquet at the Ship tavern, Greenwich, known as the ministerial white-bait dinner Its fea- ture was the white bait, a small fish not much more than an inch In length, for which Greenwich 1s fa- mous, which {s considered a great del- Icacy. It fs eaten with cayenne pep- per, lemon juice and brown bread and butter. The custom of the ministerial white- bait dinner at the Ship tavern was continued regularly from the time {t was instituted by Pitt until 1880. After that time the custom was not observed regularly and ten years ago It fell into entire disuse, 1$ IDOLIZED BY WORKMEN, New Yorker Gives Free Rent When He Cuts Wages. New York—Herman A. Metz, clty comptroller of New York, who owns the Ettrick mills, situated’in a New England village, has set a precedent that has made him the {dol of 500 em- ployes. A few days ago the painful duty devolved on him of notifying his 500 employes that it would be possible to operate the mills only three days a week. The gloomy countenances of the workers Indicated what the order meant to them. Then Metz added - peel ~ BY nN \ ” EDPAVA-ETE that the employes who live in his houses would need to pay no rent until they were, working full time again. A cheer that could be heard through: out the town was his reward. Asked to explain his action, Comp- troller Metz said: “I felt that my employes could not earn enough In these three days to en- able them to live with any comfort, and it is only just that I should afd them until work starts in full force. “To begin with, factory employes are illy paid, and for that reason are rarely prepared to meet adverse conditions. In my opinion they are the class of people most deserving of help and encouragement. “The rents I am giving to them amount to something Ike §2,000 a month, but I know the cause Is a worthy ‘one, and wish that more could be done to help this class of people.” Wanted His Money Back, Barker—Long is a fareighted man, isn’t he? : Parker—That's so.

Scullops Newburgh. Celery. Crown of lant Peas. Saratoxn potators, Green and gold salad with cream cheese sandwiches, Bavarian cream Sponge cakes. Cotten To properly prepare grape fruit it should be placed on the Ice or in Some very cold place for at least 24 hours before eating. Cut it through the Genter with a sharp pointed knife. Run the knife around the edges next to the skin, loosening the fenit from the outer skin. Remove all pits and, with the same sharp knife, cut out the core of the fruit, so that nothing remains but the luscious pulp Cover with powdered sugar and set on {ce for another half hour. It fs then ready to serve. The addition of a tablespoon of rum and three marschl- no cherries Is very tasty If you do not disapprove of Nquors. *: Crown of Lamb—The success of this dish depends largely upon the butcher. You need two racks of young lamb chops. They should be cut and “Frenched," but not entirely separat- ed. These two racks should be tied together with the boues toward the inside, forming a perfect circle. Put in baking pan and roast from 35 to 45 minutes, according to the heat of your oven, basting the meat frequently. This should be served on a large plat- ter and the inside of the “crown” should be filled with two cans of French peas that have been heated with a tablespoon of butter. Garnish the outside of the crown with Sara- toga potatoes and parsley. If your guests are not many and you have an exceedingly large platter. you can serve this entire course on the platter. Bavarian Cream.—Take the yolks of six eggs and beat them wel} In a deep lpowl. Add three ounces of grated chocolate, quarter of a pound of sugar ‘and one pint of rich cream. Put these ingredients in a double boiler and stir one way only until it thickens. Do not let It boll or it will be sure to curdle. Strain this into a bowl. Take another pint of cream and beat until thick and stir into it an ounce and a halt of dissolved gelatin, Mix this with the chocolate cream, lightly, and pour into a mold which has been rinsed With ice-cold water. Put on Ice to harden. This fs a delicious des- sert. E Scallops Newburgh—Melt a table- spoonful of butter in a porcelain-lined saucepan, add to it half a cup of sher ry wine and one quart of scallops which have been washed and drained dry in a colander. Cook these for ten minutes. Beat the yolks of three eggs thorouchly and add to them one tablespoon of cream. Add to the scal- lops already cooking a cupful of cream, pepper and salt and let it come to a boll, ‘then stir fn the yolks of the eggs and serve immediately. Green and Gol Salad.—Select the heart of a crisp head of lettuce and put two small pieces on each plate. Over this lay several very thin slices of oranges and a few cubes of pine- apples, Serve with French dressing. To Remove Stains. Most stains will yleld to simple treatments. If they do not, soak them In javelte water. then rinse. Javelle water Is the most effective of al cleaning fluids, and {s cheap—a gallon costs only a few rents Dissolve one pound of salsoda in a quart of ho! water, and add it to the clear lqulc left after dissolving half a pound of chloride of lime in two quarts o! water, This must be tightly corked and kept in a dark place. Never use {t on anything but white clothes, fo ft will take out color from a fabric To whiten clothing, put two or three tablespoonfuls of the liquid into the water In which the garments are to be ne . fnexpensive Puddine. One-half cup shertening, one cup molasses, one cup cok! water, two and one-half cups flour. oxfe level teaspoon soda, one-half level teaspoon each of elnnamon and cloves, one-fourth level teaspoon mace, one cup raisins, seed- ed, and cut in two Melt the shortening, but do not heat {t: add the m:lasses and the wa- ter; then the flour sifted with the soda and spices. Add the raisins, beat well, and tum into a mold or one pound baking powder cans, and steam for three hours. Serve with hot sauce or hard sauce. Prevent Chipped China.

Present Fancy Is for Jellies—Some of the Best Filling for Pies—Prune Pudding an Appetizing 3 Dessert. ‘ Everything seems to be jellied of late that was never so used before, such as cucumbers, mint, ete. Now It is sweet piekle. This is to be served with roast meats. Take good, swect- pickled peaches, pears, mangoes or melons. Gelatine 1s dissolved and hot pickle sirup added. When cooled the’cutup pickle is put fn, with some cut-up fresh orange and a few tea- spoonfuls of maraschino cherries, both frult and sirup, Cool llke any gelatine and serve with lamb or beef or poultry. Filling for Pies.—Canned blueber- ries, favored with wine, may now be used for ples or tartlets, Pineapple makes nice filling, also, and a choco- late cream filling with meringue in flaky pastry is another change. Peaches and pears canned, but not sweetened, make excellent salad with lettuce. Serve mayonnalse whitened with considerable whipped cream. A little orange snd apricot may bé used | with the other two fruits, or a very firm not over-ripe banana. This Is suftable for a last course at lunch- eon Instead of the customary dessert of pastry or sweets, Prune Pudding—A prune pudding, which is a favorite when once known, may be made from a cupful of prunes stewed soft, the beaten whites of six eggs, @ half cupful’of sugar and some Vanilla. Stone and mash the cooked Prunes and stir them into the white of egg. Sift a half teaspoonful of cream of tartar into the half cupful of sugar; add one teaspoonful of va- nila, Bake in a round earthen dish until firm. Serve at once with whipped cream. Da not jar this souf- fle while baking, as it {s Ifkely to fall. It should be of a pale brown color. Orled Peaches.—Dried peaches may be soaked in a sirup of sugar and water, and wine or brandy added, for a compote without cooking. That fs one expedient of light housekeeping. Of course, they must be devold of skins. Dried peach ple should be made with care, else it Is tough and bitter. Soak the peaches and stew gently. Throw away the water first used if it seems bitter, for both peaches and apricots are intproved and made more delicate by this seeming waste. Add the lquid to the vinegar keg, if you have one. After the peaches are bolled and sifted add sugar and elther a little fresh butter or some cream, about a half cupful for two medium-sized ples. A little lemon rind or sherry are not amiss in dried peach ple. Canned apricots and peaches combined make nice ples, and plain canned apricots make a delicious dessert. They may be used also for tartlets or for short- cake In winter. On these use whipped cream and garnish with crystallized cherrtes if destred more fanciful. If at all unripe stew the apricots as if they were fresh fruit. Serve with fancy crackers or cake. Springerle. Oie pound of flour, one pound sugar, four eggs, a lump of butter the size of a walnut. dne level teaspoon- ful of baking potash dfesolved In a tablespoonful of nillk. Mix sugar and butter, then adit the eggs and beat for 15 minutes, stir in the flour, the pot- ash and the milk and knead well.

Roll out a quarter of an inch thick, press well into the figures af a springerle mold (be sure the mold fs well floured, but do not have the crevices filled), cut apart and place on a table, upon which {s a light sprinkling of anise seed; leave there over night and in the morning bake In a moderate oven on waxed or oiled tins. A Novel Ham Dish. Thicken a quart of rich milk by letting it stand in a warm, but not hot, place over night Then put into a cheese-cloth bax and let It drain thoroughly. When it will drip no longer beat the drained milk for a few minutes ornntit it {s smooth and creamy; add half a teacupful of sweet cream, with pepper and salt to taste, and, at the last moment, cold boiled ham from which all the fat has been removed.

Extract Made from Vegetable Parings and Spices. “How do you ever get so much flavor into a clear soup?” asked an {ntl mate friend of the hostess. “I make a regular vegetable flavor ing extract," was the reply. “It's good for soups or stews of any sort. “If you want to make some, collect some nice fresh carrot and turnip peel- ings, onton, leak and tomato skins and celery trimmings. They should welgh about a pound altogether. Add to these a sprig each of parsley, thyme and marjoram, one bay leaf, one clove of garlic, a small piece of lemon peel, two cloves, eight peppercorns, one tea- apoontul of salt and one pint of cold water. “Put them all on the range and sim- mer until it has boiled down to abdut half a pint. Next stratn carefully and bottle the mixture. This flavoring Is very strong, and about one teaspoon- ful of it is required to Gavor one pint of stock.” Plants Thrive on Steam. A woman famous among her friends for her thrifty house plants ascribe her success to her practice of steam- ing them : “Whenever they begin to droop and look as if they needed ‘toning up’ they get a treatment.” she sald recently. She has a row of hooks arranged on the bathroom wall over the tub, and from these she suspends the pots by strings to within two feet of the water, the plants having previously had a thorough watering. The door and windoxs are closed, with the ex- ception of a narrow crack left open at the top of one of the latter, and the tub Is filled with water hot enough to allow a gentle steam to rise and per- vade the atmosphere In this position the plants are left for an hour. and the operation fs re- peated until they ure restored to health. This’of course only can be done in a ronm with painted walls, as the constant steaming wil! loosen paper” Gis oF tin, | The success of this ish Mepends largely upon your butcher You need two racks of young lamb chops.

If vour guests are not many and you have an exceedingly large platter, you can serve this éntire course on the one platter. Hot Ham Sandwiches. A housewife who was tired of serv- ing cold sliced ham advises other peo- ale to try hot ham sandwiches. “Cut thin slices of white bread and spread halt of them with soft butter and the remaining half with finely chopped ham,” said she. “Press the slices together and remove the crust. Beat one exe slightly, add onehalf cup milk and strain over the sand- wiches.

If there is any manhood in colored Americans they should demonstrate it. They should not allow themselves to be used and then cast aside like so much trash. The colored vote in the coming election will be needed. The black man in the South has a duty to perform and he should perform it without fear or favor. Today a Douglass and Langston are needed. Negro leadership of today is cowardly to some extent. The recent meeting of the bishops showed conclusively that the eyes of colored Americans are being opened slowly but surely. The question now is, however, Is the Negro needed? SENATOR CHANDLER'S LETTER. There is no man in this country more in the confidence of the people than ex-Scinator William E. Chandler, of New Hampshire. Mr. Chandler has always been a loyal Republican and a true American. He has always believed in fair play for white and black Republicans alike. There is no man more liked by the common people than Senator Chandler. The Bee means by the common people, those who are the bone and sinew of the republic. His defense of Southern Republicans is manly and like the man. Mr. Chandler takes no backward steps, and neither does he pick his man. His letter in another column of The Bee is an evidence of loyalty to the Republican party South. Senator Chandler is for Senator La Follette. He must be a man who can be trusted because he has the endorsement of Mr. Chandler. TWO WHITE MEN. There will be an attempt to send two white men to the National Republican Convention. Colored Republicans should be on the lookout and see that the will of the majority is carried out. If it is shown to the satisfaction of the Republicans that an attempt will be made to elect two white men, then the colored Republicans should see that two colored delegates are elected and a colored man placed on the National Committee. A SELL OUT? There is a rumor afloat that one of the many tickets in the field made an effort to sell out this week. It is now claimed that the two white candidates will get off the ticket. There is another candidate who has declared that he wants to go to the convention to make a deal. Within a few days there will be all kinds of a smash-up in the slates. The fight is now interesting, and at any moment someone will be on the cooling board. Existing conditions seem to point to the fact that the colored American is not wanted in the American body politic, so far as Republicans are concerned. Cries come up from the South that the lily white officeholders in that section have systematically organized against colored Republicans. It also seems that the Administration is doing nothing to stop it. That being a fact, it looks as if the Administration is a party to it. Remove John C. Nalle from the schools. All the bosses have not been removed from the schools as yet. A political vagrancy law will be enacted. Perhaps Chairman Bieber thinks that there is a gold mine in sight. The Editor of The Bee will be in the fight to win, and not to be counted out. Th next ticket the Editor launches will be a sticker and the winner. The banquet to Auditor Tyler the other evening gave the Administration forces a chance to straddle. The Bee extends its codolences to Dr. Bailey. "Sorrow could never revive the dead, so we weep because we weep in vain." Chairman Bieber, without authority, wants each candidate to put up $350. He thinks that he is running a bank, no doubt- Captain Oyster, the colored schools will not be tranquil until the obstructors are removed. The Dolliver bill will be defeated. There has been an exit of the local statesmen. They are leaving the sinking ship and making their way to Candidates Horner and Flathers. THE BEE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW If there are colored delegates, if any will vote for Senator Foraker. If C. J. Perry, of the Philadelphia Tribune, ever took a vacation when he was a member of the Council. When J. Douglass Wetmore stands now. If the colored race is in need of a leader. How many Negro electors will support Mr. Taft if he is nominated. If Mr. Taft and Bryan are nominated, which will colored Americans support. How will colored Republicans North vote in the next election. Who will go on the National Committee if the Burt ticket is elected. THE BEE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE BEE WOULD LIKE TO SEE District Republicans united. District Republicans united. More manhood among colored Americans. A strong National Committee man selected. The nerves of District Republicans soothed. Less worry about the Chase ticket. Five thousand more subscribers by the end of the year. A national testimonial to Prof. Booker T. Washington. Preachers keep out of politics. Dr. Corrothers made a bishop. WOULD AVOID PARTY SPLITS. Under such a system as the above there will be no splits in the Republican party of the South on delegates to the National Convention or other matters. The question at once arises, How shall there be obtained a State committee of from 50 to 100 which will be so completely a representative body that its decisions will be submitted to by the party in the State? Here is where hte power of the Administration should be exerted: Instead of making appointments according to the recommendation of two or three individuals, whether Republicans or Democrats, selected by the Administration, the State committee should have the privilege of recommendation, and the power of the Administration should only be exerted to secure an honest, and able committee, which will fairly represent the Republican party of the State. This power of the Administration can be exerted without creating friction. It would seldom be exerted, and would only slightly be exerted at any time. The State conventions which will appoint the State committees will be fairly representative bodies, and they will give all kinds of Republicans, black and white, reasonable representation on the State committees. The administration will have no trouble in inducing the conventions to place upon the State committees the very best Republicans there are in the States, and there is no Southern State in which there are not Republicans good enough for a State committee, if they are encouraged to go to the State convention, and to accept places upon the State committee. SENATOR CHANDLER'S PLAN. March 10, 1903. — Memorandum About Southern Politics. The condition of things at the South nomination made in 1908, as Mr. Hanna so far as the Republican party is concerned is unsatisfactory, and there is great dissatisfaction on the part of the Southern Republicans with the Administration. Without specifically stating the raisons for that dissatisfaction, or considering whether they are just or unjust, there is a very simple remedy which should be applied, and none other will answer the purpose. The habit of selecting two or three men in a Southern State as referees who shall control the whole Federal patronage within the State is intolerable to the mass of the Republicans, be that mass few or many. It is unbearable when the persons selected to act as referees are Democrats. There should be substituted for this unwise system the recognition in each State of the Republican State committee. This should go a large committee — not less than fifty, sometimes as many as 100. The administration should recognize in making appointments a majority of this committee, or may well require a two-thirds majority. The whole committee need not, by a vote of a majority or two-thirds of its members, decide upon each of its recommendations; it may appoint an executive committee, which will make their recommendations, but this executive committee must itself be the honest product of a majority or two-thirds vote of the whole committee, which must feel entirely free at any time to assemble and give directions to its executive committee. CARNEGIE HOSPITAL NEWEST ADDITION Branch Work of Avery College Receives Endorsement of Iron King. From the Pittsburgh Times. There is a new hospital in Pittsburgh. It is to be known as "The Carnegie Hospital." It is connected with the Avery College Training School at Avery and Nelson streets, North Side, and authority for the use of the name of Andrew Carnegie, has been received by letter. Joseph D. Mahoney, superintendent of the college and training school, leaves this morning for the East where he will remain for several days in conference with representatives of Mr. Carnegie, discussing necessary changes is operating, prior to the receipt of Mr. Carnegie's full endorsement. One of the stipulations to the use of Mr. Carnegie's name and receipt of his full approval is the appointment of Dr. John A. Brashear as a member of the board of trustees. Dr. Brashear was present last night at the college on the occasion of the mid-winter exhibition of work in company with John D.Cherry, Dr.G. G.Turfley, and Superintendent Mahoney. The college has been in existence for several years and has been doing a splendid work in the training department. Here young women are taught to sew and do millinery work, and the young men are taught tailoring and other useful trades. There is a membership at present of three hundred, some of whom are dormitory students. The hospital which at present consists of two wards, a nurses' room and operating room, has just been opened and there all cases, with the exception for the presence of contagious diseases, will be received and treated. NO NEED OF PLAN IN 1904. There was no occasion to use the convenient power thus deliberately organized in the National Convention of 1904, because there was no contest therein over the presidential nomination. If there had been a contest, the exercise by a few men of the control of the Southern delegates in imitation of Mr. Hanna's plan of 1896 would have been resisted, and the prediction made by me of contests in nearly all the Southern States would have been fulfilled. It has been reserved for a period four years later to see the legitimate, logical, and necessary result of the policy of destroying Republican organization in the Southern States. It is a question that has been weighing upon me since 1896, and the time came, as I thought, for me to speak, whether my snuffence might be much or little. I was bound to do this, whatever my feelings might be in reference to the presidential nomination, for I should have felt that a succeeded in making the nomination of 1896, would be followed by defeat. History often repeats itself as to methods, but frequently fails as to results. If I were in favor of Mr. Taft's nomination today instead of Mr. La Follette's, I should be intensely active to change the method of conducting his canvass at the South. The bold proclamation of a purpose to control the convention by Southern delegates' secured through the detail of Mr. Hitchcock to go South and capture them by appeals to the present Federal officeholders, and to the white Republicans and the white Democrats who may want future office, while there is ostracism of all the colored people of the South, would, if it were to meet with success at the National Convention, most likely be followed by defeat at the polls. HONOR TO MR. WASHINGTON. From the Buxton Gazette. The editor of the Washington Bee has suggested that the colored people of this country should tender to Dr. Booker T. Washington a testimonial by a public demonstration in Convention Hall in Washington next May. We believe that the idea is a good one and that if carried out in the proper spirit it will result in good for the race. Dr. Washington does not need it or desire it for any personal advantage. His fame is world wide and his cup of honor is full to overflowing. His work stands on the solid rock of its own worth and merit. He is not seeking those things that find expression only in vanity and notoriety. But the race which he represents does need to recognize the leadership of a man that has worked so wisely in their behalf. We need to show to the world that we will follow a sensible and conservative leader. Dr. Washington now stands for a cause that is greater than himself — the cause of human progress for all men — and it is to this cause that we lend our aid when we honor the man who is today one of its most earnest and effective advocates. ATTORNEY GREEN'S GREAT LEAGUE VICTORY. From the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Overwhelmed when a jury, after 24 hours' deliberation, found Wade Leigh, on trial for first degree murder, guilty of assault and battery, Judge Phillips yesterday scored the jurymen unsparingly. It was thought at 3.30 yesterday afternoon that the jurors would not be able to agree, having been out since 3 Thursday, and Leigh was on the point of pleading guilty to manslaughter, punishable with twenty years, when the gong rang, announcing that the jurors had reached a verdict. Slowly the twelve filed into the box. Criminal Court Clerk Flick called the roll, then read their verdict, "guilty of assault and battery." While the prisoner, happy sprang to shake each juror by the hand his attorney John P. Green made a speech of thanks. Prosecutor Lieghley followed with his gratitude, but irony was apparent in his words. Judge Phillips sat flushed and motionless on the bench until these ceremonies ended, then he launched forth: "This verdict is a miscarriage of justice," he said. "It is preposterous. If such were the rule, we might as well have no more law, shut up our court houses." As the prisoner walked trembling to his desk, the judge said that from the facts the accused himself conceded to be true, he was logically, guilty of murder in the first degree. Instead of death in the electric chair, Leigh escaped with a work house sentence of six months and a fine of $200 and costs. Wade Leigh, a Negro about twenty-five, was put on trial ten days ago for the shooting of Vernon Love, another Negro, in a saloon on East Ninth street at nine in the evening of December 17. Leigh's witnesses testified in the course of the trial that Love, who had a "bad man" reputation, after a quarrel, waylaid Leigh outside a saloon at 7.30 that night and hurled two bottles at him, grazing his head. Two hours after Leigh found himself in another saloon further down the street; Love followed. Leigh says Love flashed a knife; Leigh fired; his opponent fell dead. At three o'clock Thursday Judge Phillips was overcome by the verdict. Then he told Leigh to rise, and began: "This verdict is preposterous. I cannot account for it; that a jury of 12 intelligent men should hold you guilty of so light a charge after they heard the evidence in this case is to me unaccountable. "From the facts you yourself admit and from your explanation of your movements that night, the only logical, national conclusion is that you are guilty of murder in the first degree. Such a verdict may well inspire our citizens with a feeling of insecurity and encourage the commission of high crime. It is a miscarriage of justice." The jurymen, silent, filed out of the room. The work house, sentence, $200, ecsts and six months will keep the prisoner many years in the institution, if worked out; the length of time depends upon the total costs in the case. WILL THE BEE STOP AND READ? From the Cadiz Informer. Editor Chase is a splendid writer, but when he gets on the preachers for getting on the right side of moral questions we cite him to read the following Scriptures: Jeremiah, xxxv, where n is shown that God gives his unqualified endowment to and pronounced His blessings upon the Rechabites because they were a prohibition people, neither making nor allowing the use of 'the nasty 'stuff.' If some preachers drink whisky, then doubtless there are whisky-drinking preachers. God said there would be men who were lovers of flesh and of worldly pleasure. But back to the word of God. Passages of the following may be multiplied: "Wine is a mocker; strong drink is raging; and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." Prov. i, 20. "Look not upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth its color in the cup, when it moveth itself aight, at the last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder." Prov. xxiii, 31, 32. "Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest the bottle to him and makets him drunk." Also, Matt. ii, 15. "No drunkard shall inherit the Knigdom of God." I. Cor., vi. 6, 10. The pastors and preachers who drink whisky set a very bad example to their churches. Wonder is that those churches do not find sober pastors and preachers who can do without their dram. And save us from this lecture of our co-editor Chase. Christ does not approve of whisky drinking church members any more than He approves of whisky drinking pastors and preachers. Just the thought of Jesus patronizing a modern saloon is sacrilegious. HOSANNAS AND ANATHEMAS. From the Hosannas, 'to crucify him,' is with the practical Americans, an easy transition, and is determinable largely by the subtle influence of the "Aimighty and the recipient of the adulatory acclaims today may become the victim of the popular indignation tomorrow. It is related of President Roosevelt that on being congratulated some time ago by a friend on the popularity he had attained, he predicted that should a period of hard times visit the country he would be the most unpopular of presidents. And the prediction would appear to be on the threshold of fulfillment. Already a number of newspapers are attacking him, one attributes his saying as having 'turned on the light' to "the egotism of a very aggressive nature." Others are no less outspoken and to the verge of brutal plainness, all being excited by the financial panic which followed the exposures of the President, and it would now appear that his decision that he would under 'no circumstances accept the nomination for a third time, was dictated by the ripest of wisdom, for Roosevelt as president in 1908 is an impossibility.

The Interstate Commerce Commission has decided by a unanimous vote to deny petitions for the extension of time within which to comply with the so-called hours of service law, the nine-hour law. Although a law on the statute book says that when a new State is admitted into the Union a star representing the State shall be added to the American flag on July 4th succeeding its admission to the Union, that law was violated last Monday by the House of Representatives. All the supply of forty-five-star flags having run out, a forty-six-star flag was raised at the House end of the Capitol. The official publication of the Post office says that one reason the mails are delayed is because names of residents are sometimes omitted in the City Directory. Several prominent residents of this city who have been seriously ill for the past few days are reported as being much improved. Inquiry into the competitive methods of the Standard Oil Company was continued last Monday in the suit of the Government against the company. A REVIEW AND THE OUTLOOK At a recent meeting of the Sixteenth District Republican Club the following instructive address relative to conduct of the members, was made by the president, William Tibbs: That orderly conduct should at all times be observed by organizations; that the right and interest should be both individually as well as collectively displayed in the upbuilding of the colored people as a race. He declared that the colored man's chances were never brighter, but that it depended largely on their cool judgment, careful conduct and forceful character. That it was entirely useless to expect his white brethren to caress him, or pretend that he was a good citizen when he really considered his qualifications to the contrary. He deplored the lack of interest displayed by the colored people in many ways. Subjects of vital importance are relegated to the background, while subjects of little concern are usually agitated. He spoke at some length on the present racial conditions that were in their power to eliminate or cause such action to be taken that would bring about the desired effect. He cautioned his hearers against being too hasty in selecting their local candidates in the present campaign. He pointed out the necessity of selecting such men who not only regard themselves, but have the interest, and the people, all districts, and all the peoples, regardless of color, creed, or previous conditions of servitude, for the benefit of perpetual organization all district leaders should recognize as such that district organizations may be maintained. That district organizations should unite, and devote their undivided attention toward defeating the undesirable element of candidates, who are seeking election through hypocrisy and deceit. He said it was time ethat colored men should be and are capable of selecting adequate representatives, and with aptience and at the right time such men would be selected. There are undesirable men in the field whose honor and integrity were questionable, and at the proper time the names of these campaign sharks now at large will be known to every member of the club. These men conspire and all of their concerted efforts to raise capital thrill their colored constituents only to ignore them when their votes and their presence at meetings are no longer in demand. It may be noted by many the jealous care former campaign favorites have used to defend the just distribution of acquired influence among the masses of their campaign supporters, choosing to recognize only a few favorites. The president closed by cautioning his hearers against listening to misrepresented campaign angels in disguise. He advised the members to make an individual as well as a collective strenuous fight to defeat the conspirators of, 1908. REGISTER VERNON IN NEW YORK. The Hon. W. T. Vernon, Register of the United States Treasury, spoke at the Bethel A. M. E Church, in New York city. Rev. R. C. Ransom, pastor, on the eveening of February 27; subject, "The Negro in America."

Interment at Mount Zion Cemetery A TAFT BANQUET TNRNED INTO A FORAKER LOVE FEAST. (There was a brilliant company of Americans at the cafe of James W. Gray last Monday evening. The occasion was a banquet to Hon. Ralph W. Tyler. Many speeches were made by the distinguished guests present. The most significant address made was by Attorney Harry H. Cummings, of Baltimore, Md. He was a Taft mann, and made every effort to boom him, but he found the Foraker combination in the majority. Every mention of Taft was greeted with a rebuff. Mr. Fred Moore made an attack on Senator Foraker. He said that the Senator was using the Negro for a selfish purpose. He was hissed into silence, and replied to Attorney Thomas L. Jones, who delivered the best address of the evening. Attorney Jones made a bold defense of Senator Foraker. Attorney James A. Cobb also made a fire address. He paid a high compliment to the lawyers. Addresses were delivered by ex-Governor Pinchback, Recorder J. C. Dancy, Prof. R. C. Bruce, Hon. Charles W. Anderson, Attorney J. C. Napier, Hon. Ralph W. Tyler and others. Among some of the guests present were Messrs. Robert T.Douglass, Clark, Drs. Cobbiness, Williston, Mr. Sam Williams, and others. The Foraker guests seemed to be in the majority. One of the most successful revivals ever held in the United States is in progress now at the great Cosmopolitan Temple Baptist Church, N street northwest between Ninth and Tenth street, Rev. Simon P. W. Drew, D.D., LLD., pastor, conducted by the world's famous evangelist, Dr. Drew. Since these meetings commenced, about four weeks ago, fully twenty-five thousand people have attended the services and about three thousand persons have asked for prayer that they may be saved. Several hundred have already been converted, baptized and joined the said church. Dr. Drew extended the hand of fellowship to two hundred new members last Sunday, and administered the Lord's Supper. He preached one of the most eloquent sermons that we have ever listened to at 7:30 p.m. Next Sunday he will preach special sermons at 10:30 a.m., subject, "The ladder extending from earth to heaven," and at 7:30 p.m., subject, "Dead dog after a flea," by request of several friends of the church, to be following by baptizing at 9 p.m.. This great revival will be continued until April 12. Dr. Drew is one of the best-known evangelistic preachers, saddowed with gifts peculiar to his work. His sermons are spiritual and philosophical compositions. His power as an evangelist has won from every denomination, the title of "The Colored D. L. Moody of America, and the Evangelistic Artist." He has an unusual manner, with a noble, dignified bearing, and he adds much to his acquired talents by his pulpit delivery. His voice is deep, mellow, under perfect control, at times strikingly like a thunderbolt, and compelling obedience to his words; again plaintive and persuasive, attracting his hearers by an irresistible force. Great crowds flocked to hear this great evangelist, from all parts of the city and nearby towns and villages of Virginia, North Carolina, and Maryland. A great revival wave is sweeping over Washington. THE WESLEY CLUB. A special song service under the auspices of the Club named above, Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, president, assisted by the Lyric Orchestra, was held at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church last Sunday evening. Both the body of the church and its spacious galleries were filled by an appreciative and enthusiastic audience. The exercises began with the "Glory Song," by congregation and orchestra; invocation by the pastor, Rev. J. H. Welch, and selection, "Religion." Chambers, by the orchestra. The regular program consisted mainly of solos, as follows: solo, selected, Mrs. Irving; comet solo, "Dear Lord, remember me," Thompson, by R. E. Giles; solo, "The endless Day," Madame Prileon; solo, "Open the gates," Knapp, Mrs. L. H. Burrell; solo, selected, Mr. W. H. Carter, Jr.; solo, "Save me, O God," Reudegger, Mrs.Blagburn; organ offertory, "St. Cecilia," Prof. W. G. Braxton; solo, selected, Mr. J. DeWitte Wilson; solo, selected, Master Turner Layton; solo, "Calvary," by request, Madane Prielon; selection, "Heart to heart," orchestra; doxology and benediction. Madame Pritleon came in for a large share of attention, judging by the marked applause, clapping of hands, stamping of feet, etc., by several hundred enthusiastic admirers, calling forth a mild but nevertheless a vigorous protest from the minister, Dr. Welch, who begged to remind the 'delighted' hearers that they were "in the house of the Lord." This pointed protest seemed to have allayed the applause somewhat. The Wesley Club is composed of a number of well known young ladies, who are active both in church and charitable work, among whom we noticed the Misses Daisy Watson, Bertha Saunders, Willie Nelson Eliza Bell Rosebud Murray, Rosetta Orme, Gertrude Ryan, Eunice Dorster, May Saunders, Florence Freeman and Marie Morgan, who acted as ushers. A silver offering was taken at the door by the Mrs. A. B. Baily, Sadi Wingard, Virginia Jeter and Essie Fortune. HALL ASSOCIATION A well attended meeting of the Union Hall Association was held at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, 18th street between L and M streets northwest, Monday evening last. In a short address Mr. P. D. Morris, president of the association, explained the objects of the meeting and of the association, which were to form a stock company and erect a large building or auditorium for theatrical convention and reception purposes. The principal address was delivered by Attorney W. C. Martin, who was present by special invitation. Mr. William Foman, the secretary, stated that the temporary board of directors had about decided to fix the capital stock at $100,000, with 10,000 shares at $10 a share. All present seemed pleased with the good start the organization had made, and fully appreciated the real necessity for such a hall. ODD FELLOWS. After forty-two years' existence as a voluntary association, pursuant to a resolution passed by the members of Potomac Union Lodge, No. 892, of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, a committee appointed for the purpose had prepared, filed and recorded in the office of the Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia a certificate of incorporation. The Lodge will continue its name; the term for which it is incorporated is perpetual, and its principal business and objects are benevolent. The incorporators are: Robert J. Holmes, Thomas D. Tucker and Jnho W. Lee. The articles of incorporation were prepared and filed by Attorney W. C. Martin, Past District Grand Master of the Order. REPUBLICAN RALLY A rousing Republican rally was held at Odd Fellows Hall, Twenty-eighth and Dumbarton, on last Tuesday night, under the auspices of the United Republican Clubs of the District of Columbia. Many and long were the applause that punctuated every mention of the name of the Ohio Senator. Chairman Bowie presided, and in a neat, well-chosen speech told of the object and purpose of the meeting, and the efforts the clubs are making in trying to arouse the Republicans of the District to the importance of carrying the election for the Foraker delegates. Mr. John T. C. Newson was the next speaker. He said: "When they come to you and ask you to stand by the administration, reply to them according to the watchword on our hand-bills, 'Remember Brownsville.'" Our friends only can get our votes." He spoke of the several combinations or tickets which we have endeavored to form, and which, after announcement have mysteriously fallen to pieces. This, he urged, should not disconcert our followers at all. It indicated, he thought, the desperate efforts being put forth by the Administration forces to demoralize us, and carry the election for Taft, for Hitchcock is now abroad in the land We are grateful for the fact that we have two candidates on our ticket that are, impervious to such influences—men who are strong and true to their convictions and to the people, and who will win on election day. He referred to W. Calvin Chase ad Colonel Odell. These efforts on the part of the opposition should only move us to renewed and more determined efforts to win, as we will. Dr. A. J. Robbins, of the Fourth Virginia, District, and formerly of North Carolina, was next called upon. Dr. Robbins is a forceful and eloquent speaker. He has been doing some yeoman service down in Virginia. He held the audience spellbound while he told of the heroic efforts being put forth throughout the Old Dominion to combat the evident growth of lily-whitism, and to send only known friends of Senator Foraker to Chicago. He emphasized the importance and wisdom of sending uninstructed regular delegates, rather than instructed contesting delegates, which they are endeavoring to do in Virginia, wherever the conventions are called and dominated by petty officeholders or lily whites. Dr. Robbins is a trained and impressive campaigner, and his visit to the Republicans of the District was a source of inspiration and much enthusiasm. He promises to come again a little later on in the cmapaign. NEW PASTOR INSTALLED THE installation of Rev. E. E. Ricks, the pastor-elect of the First Colored Baptist Church, corner of 27th street and Dumbarton avenue, on Wednesday night was largely attended. At eight o'clock Rev. John H. Burke, pastor of Israel Baptist Church, the master of ceremonies, called the assemblage to order, and the exercises began with an organ voluntary, followed by the doxology. After prayer by Rev. o'Jeph H. Lee and a hymn Rev. J. N. Beaman then read the fourth chapter of second Corinthians. Following an anthem by the choir, Rev. Walter H. Brooks, D.D., pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, preached the installation sermon, taking as his theme "The Duty of the Preacher." A quartet composed of William De Long, John Braxton, T. A. Walker and A. Lincoln Alexander, sang. Lawyer J. Thomas Newson, of NewportNews, Va, spoke of Mr. Ricks as his schoolmate at Howard University. Mrs. Julia Masonn Layton extended a welcome on behalf of the women of the denomination and the Baptist Woman's Home Missionary Society; A. S. Pinkett spoke for the young men of the church. A welcome from sister denominations was extended by Revs. A. C. Garner, of the Congregational Church; B. T. Perkins and F. A. Seaton, of the Methodist Church; D. E. Wiseman, of the Lutheron Church, and Mr. William W. McCarey, of the Presbyterian Church. Rev. W. J Howard, of Zion Baptist Church, next spoke and following a selection by the choir Rev. E. E. Ricks, the newly installed pastor, responded. Rev. Daniel Reed pronounced the benediction. After the formal service the congregation sat down to supper. Rev. J. H. Burke acted as toastmaster, and Rev. Dr. S. G. Lankins, pastor of Tenth Street Baptist Church; Dr. Charles H. Marshall, A. W. Tancil and James E. McGirt, of Philadelphia, spoke.

REV.EDGAR ERICKS INSTALLED Last Wednesday evening, February 26th, was the scene of a most brilliant affair at the First Baptist Church, of Georgetown, when the Rey. Edgar E. Ricks was installed as its pastor. Over a thousand people witnessed the occasion, which gave honor to whom honor is due. Several hundred people were turned away because, so to speak, there was no room in the inn. Dr. W. H. Brooks, of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, with telling effect, preached the installation sermon, after which some of the best speakers in the city delivered addresses, in which they paid a high tribute to the real worth of the Rev. Mr. Ricks, not only to the Church which had called him, but of his race. Circled "E," of the First Baptist Church, through its president, presented the newly installed pastor with a handsome gold fob. The reception room tables were laden with palatable food prepared for those who desired to participate. CHAIRMAN BIEBER CALLED DOWN — ATTORNEY COLLINS OBJECTS — A PROBABLE SPLIT IN THE COMMITTEE. Chairman Sidney Bieber, of the election committee, has been called to an account by Attorney George F. Collins, a member of the election committee. Chairman Bieber, it seems, has been holding star chamber sessions; that is, he and Mr. Cranford have been doing things contrary to the rules and without the knowledge of Attorney Collins. Mr. Bieber was told this week by Attorney Collins that he had made every effort to have a meeting, but without success. A meeting was called for February 22, but Chairman Bieber disappointed Attorney Collins and made no apology. Attorney Collins was informed by Chairman Bieber that each delegate would have to put up $350. Attorney Collins wanted to know who authorized him to make such assessment. Mr. Bieber informed Attorney Collins that two were a majority and sufficient to do business. Attorney Collins informed Chairman Bieber that he would not do business unless he was consulted. In reply the chairman stated that either he or Mr. Collins would have to get off. Attorney Collins in reply informed him that he could suit himself. The Bee would suggest that unless Attorney Collins is treated with respect he issue a separate call for the election of delegates. F. E GREEN & CO Mr. J. Henry Foster, manager for F. E. Green Co., 816 and 818 Nineteenth street northwest, has made an addition to his place of business. Aside from the large work and repair rooms upstairs, he has opened another room downstairs, where he has on exhibition all kinds of ladies' dresses. Mr. Foster is active and persevering, and there is no doubt that he leads all tailoring businesses in this city. Then he has two expert dressmakers in the persons of Miss Mabel E. Anderson and Mrs. Mayme B. Jones. Both of these ladies are expert fitters and cutters of ladies' dresses. They are also up in business, which is a great acquisition to F. E. Green Co. You should not hesitate to give him a call. JIM CROW AIR. In theBureau of Engraving andPrinting there are separate toilet rooms for the females. The white women have heat in their room, but the colored women have no heat. Just why this discrimination exists The Bee is unable to state. SUPERVISOR NALLE There is every reason that John C. Nalle, one of the colored supervisors, should be removed from the schools. The Bee would suggest that this man and his work in the schools and his bossism over teachers should be investigated. There has never been a report in the case of the Misses Patterson as yet, which was promised before the retirement of Dr. Chancellor. WILLIAM S. ODELL From the Journal of the Knights of Labor. It does not for that because a person becomes a member of a labor organization that he must throw aside all party affiliation and wage a battle against "party" in the interest of labor reform. The brother whose name heads this article has during his political life been a member of the Republican party, but that fact did not prevent him from joining the Knights of Labor and of becoming a loyal member of Local Assembly No. 1620, Washington, D.C. His record as a man among men was all the recommendation necessary to admit him to membership. William S. Odell has been a resident of the District of Columbia for years, and is thoroughly familiar with the political and business interests of this city, and this is why his friends have decided to push forward his name as alternate delegate to the National Republican Convention. Mr. Odell served as a Union soldier in the War of the Rebellion, in the Seventh Indiana Infantry Volunteers, for three years, participating in thirty-two general engagements, including Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, "The Wilderness," Spotsylvania and Petersburg. At Petersburg he was severely wounded. He joined the Grand Army of the Republic in 1866, and has filled all the offices from Outside Sentinel to Department Commander, and his standing as a Master Mason covers more than forty years. He voted for Abraham Lincoln in 1864, and for every Republican President since that date. He was the representative in Washington, D. C., of the Indiana Republican State Central Committee, 1883 to 1886; president of the McKinley and Hobart Interstate Campaign Club, 1896; secretary of the McKinley and Roosevelt Interstate Campaign Club, 1900; organizer and national secretary of the "Old Boys" (the men who voted for Fremont and Lincoln), 1904; member of the executive committee of the League of Republican State Clubs, District of Columbia; member of Local Assembly No. 620, Knights of Labor; and an organizer of the Roosevelt and Fairbanks Labor Club. He is nominated as an alternate on the Distriqt Republican tickets composed of William S. Odell and W. Calvin Chase, alternate, Mr. Marshall, of Georgetown; and the ticket that names General A. S. Burt, with—William S. Odell as alternate, and John W. Patterson, with—Mr. Gaskins as alternate. June, 1906, Colonel Odell was sent as a delegate to the fiftieth anniversary of the birth of the Republican party. There is no man in this city more popular than Colonel Odell. of the world." ITEMS ON THE WING Recent events have more fully demonstrated the necessity of the Negro of the United States being united. Comrade Goodman, commander of Post No. 9, G. A. R., is sick with the grip at his home. In 1776 Washington did away with kings in the United States. In 1908 the money kings are in full control. Recorder Lazarus of Bayonne, N. J., rules that a mistress is justified in slapping and kicking a sevant girl for impertinence. At a meeting of the Encampment, G. A. R, Department of the Potomac, it was resolved that the price of admission would be $1.25 to the dinner given to the National Commander in Chief on February 20 in order that all comrades in the Department could meet him. In order to keep out the black comrades the number of guests was limited to three hundred, as it was stated that it was impossible to hold a popular banquet. The white comrades may draw the color line, but there is an encampment they will visit in the near future where they will meet on the one level. In Freiburg, Germany, the authorities maintain a theater, seats for nine cents, several restaurants, meals for six cents; schools, and a newspaper. They also own a cemetery, where people can be buried che, p. Representative R. P. Hobson claims that the Government discriminates now against the illiterate whites of the South by heavy taxation to pay pensions in other States. In his remarks to the Southern Industrial Educational Association. If the South had not rebelled she would not have pensions to support. Geore Wicks, colored, a prisoner in the jail at Washington, Pa., has been elected constable in the Third ward of Washington. Mrs. Annie R. Hale, of Tennessee, in a lecture Friday, subject "A Plan to Bring the North and the South Together Upon an Old Issue (we all know what that is), in part synopsis states that the South should encourage an orderly, systematic, gradual exodus of the Southern Negro into the North and Northwest, and that the distaste of the South toward the Negro rests on prejudice. (All the trouble the Negro of the United States has today rests upon prejudice and lack of unity.) The Chicago Evening Post proposes that the Republican party should elect a Southern man as Vice President. That is the trouble now, viz., too much Southern influence in Government, affairs. Mrs. James F. Johnson, of D street southwest, is sick with la gripe. Bishop Satterlee, of the Diocese of Washington, D. C., died February 22. One of his last official acts was the confirming of a class at St. Monica's Protestant Episcopal Mission (colored) S. W. Requiescat in pace. There are six brothers in Antwerp who were born of the same mother within one year. The first three in January, and the second three the following December. United States Attorney Baker and Assistant United States Attorney Cobb have filed in the District Supreme Court sixteen transcripts of judgments entered by the Police Court.

Left-Over Peas with Eggs Make Rel - jshable Dish, When peas are left over a good breakfast dish can be made by truss: ing them in butter over the fire and serving them with poached eggs on top. « Another appetizing way to cook eggs is to cream them. Boll 12 egga until hard enough to cut into slices. Put around the bottom and sides of a baking dish some crusts of bread cut thin. Put in the eggs with alternate lay ers of grated breadcrumbs, seasoned with pepper and salt. Into a saucepan put one-quarter of! 8 pound of butter rubbed In one large tablespoonful of flour with some | chopped parsley, a seasoning of onion salt, pepper and one gill of cream Stir over the fire until the Ingredients begin to boll, then pour {t over the eggs. Cover the top with grated bread crumbs, place in the oven, and wher the top is sufficiently browned serve at once. Uncooked Candy. | Into the whites of four eggs stir 2s much confectioner’s sugar as will make the mixture like a soft dough. This can be used as a foundation for @ great many kinds of candy. Put ft ut On a molaing ovard and form into balls, which can be dipped into melted chocolate and made into chocolate creams. . A piece put between a split date with the sed removed and the whole rolled in either pink or white granulated suzar forms another. A plece put between two half kernels of English walnut makes another. Chopped nuts mixed in the dough and then cut In squats forms another. Putting a little red sugar,in the mix- ture as you stir it makes a lovely pink color, which you can arrange in layers between the white and‘ cut Into squares. These are only a few of its uses. Use any ilavoring extract de- sired, but in smull drop quantities, Health Hints. For unbrolen chilblains rubbing with damp salt Is one of the best rem- edies known, Onions are a tonic for the nerves, but people will be forever prejudiced because Of their color. A few grains of coffee burned on hot coals will purify the air in a sick room and drive away any odor. Don’t wear bracelet’ so tight that they affect the circulation or so lonse that they rub on the wrist Joints. A small onion eaten raw before re. tiring will often result in a restful sleep, as onions are excellent nerve soothers, Baked Fish. Clean, wash and dry the fish and ‘sprinkle the inside with salt. Cut -gashes In the side two inches apart ‘and tle fish in letter S shape. Rut with salt, pepper and melted butter and put a piece of salt pork in each gash In the side. Put in oven to bake and baste often. Add follgwing dress ing: Take cupful of cracker crumbs, two tablespoonfuls melted butter, one saltspoon salt, one of pepper, oné tablespoontul of chopped pickle, one tablespoonful parsley and one table spoonful of onjon juice. Add hot water to moisten. Hot Chicken Salad. One tablespoonful of butter, melt, add one tablespoonful of flour mixed with a pihch of salt, a IMttle pepper, cayenne, and If liked celery salt, or for a change a few «drops of onion juice. Use about 2 cup of milk to make a cream. Stir in a beaten egg, then carefully a cup of chopped chicken meat, Don't stir much after adding the meat. Veal is good instead of chicken, and lamb can be used, but cut it into little dice instead of chop- ping it. Serve on toast or with fried potatoes. To Remove Grease from Silk. Woolens, paper, floors, etc, take French chalk, grate thickly over the spot, cover with brown paper, set on it a hot flat fron and let it remain un- til cool; repeat if necessary. The fron must not be so bot as to burn the pa- per or cloth.

PINAUITS: HAIR TONIC and LILAC VEGETAL FOR FINE CANDIES Reclpe Given Here, in Respect of Ma: terials and Quantities, Is intended for the Beginner at Mak- ing Dainties. As fondant is the foundation for all the fine French candles, a good work- ‘ing knowledge of how to make It is essential. Molasses candy can be made on a damp day, fondant never. |The materials needed are the best granulated sugar for the cream, @ ‘small quantity of confectioner’s sugar ‘to be used in the kneading, vegetable color pastes that can be purchased at any first-class confectiones or made at home, a little cream of tartar, and then the fillings, flavorings, nuts, etc., that are to be used in connection with the fondant, For flavoring the ordl- nary extracts are used, also maraschino and other cordials. The formula for fondant Is always the same: A pound of graulated sugar (that 1s, two ordinary cuptuls), one cupful hot water, and a half tea- spoonful cream of tartar. This fs the easiest quantity to handle for the ama- teur. After a litle experience the quantity can be doubled, as fondant can be made and képt on hand. Put the Ingredients Into a granite sauce- pan with an extra heavy bottom, and atir over a slow fire until the sugar Is dissolved, -but not a moment longer. After it has become a clear sirup stir- ring will cause it to granulate. Heat rapldly to the boiling point, wiping gently away with a damp cloth any moisture that appears on the sides of the pan. Yf th{s drops back {nto the pan it Is apt to make the sirup grau- ‘viate also. Jf any scum arises, remove it eareruny. / After cooking *ten min- utes begin testing In cold water. If it whl make a soft ball when rolled be- tween the fingers it Is just right and Must be at once removed from the Gre. Set aside In the pan {n which it has cooked to cool. Do not try to hasten this by setting In cold water. Let It take its time. When cool, not cold, begin stirring energetically with &@ wooden paddle. In a few moments it will look cloudy, then whiten and gtow thick and creamy. Wher too suff to stir, take in the hands and| knead Iike bread dough. There 1s no chance of overdoing this, for Its Hght- ness depends upon the thoroughness of the kneading. When quite light and creamy it fs ready for use, though it ls better to put away a day, aa con- fectioners do, to mellow and ripen. Pack in an earthen dish and cover airtight with a slightly dampened cloth. This will keep for weeks if de sired. * When sufficient fondant has been Prepared it is ready for the coloring. All colors, extracts and flavors must be as concentrated as possible, so as not to thin the fondant too much. If you make your own colorings green 1s made by cooking spinach leaves a few moments in a little water. Strain and bottle. To obtaln red, boll one ounce powdered cochineal fn a cup of water for five minutes, then add one ounce cream of tartar and a half ounce powdered alum and cook ten minutes Tenger. While hot add two ounces sugar and bottle. For pink use a few drops cochineal or a little cranberry Juice, or the pink coloring that comes with some gelatines. For blue, rub indigo In a little water on a plate. Caramel or chocolate give a dark brown. The grated rind of a dark skinned orange soaked In a small quan- tity of its juice, then strained, gives yellow, as also the yolk of an egg. Fruit juices also furnish good eolor- ings for fondant.

Refreshing Drink Extract Easily Prepared and Bottled. Do you ever wish you could make iced chocolate that would taste, as good as iced tea and coffee? One original hostess who is always springing something new served it at a card party the other night. She gave these directions to a guest who inquired into the mystery: Put an ounce of cooking chocolate into a saucepan and pour on it gradually one pint of boiling water, stirring all the time. Put the saucepan on the fire and stir until the chocolate is all dissolved, then add granulated sugar and taste and stir until it begins to boil. Cook for three minutes longer without stirring, then strain and cool. Add one teaspoon of vanilla extract, bottle and store in a cool place. When needed, put two tablespoons of crushed ice in a tumbler, add two tablespoons of whipped cream, one gill of milk and half a gill of any carbonic water. Stir thoroughly before drinking. It is wonderfully refreshing. MEATS THAT REQUIRE CARE. Care Needed in the Preparation of Lamb and Mutton. An experienced housewife declares that both lamb and mutton should be more carefully prepared than the other meats. First, the loose fat which comes wrapped around such a roast should be removed, washed carefully in salty water and set to work in a dish of cold water into which a very little blcarbonate of soda has been put. Then the roast proper instead of being washed or wiped, as usual, should be thoroughly scraped with a sharp knife until every bit of skin has been removed, without, however, cutting away any of the fat, and next the meat should be freely rubbed with salt. After this, the loose fat, which has meanwhile been soaking, should be wiped quite dry and fartened around the roast with long skewers. Finally, this outer layer should be rubbed over with salt and at last the roast of lamb or mutton is ready for the pan. Ribbon Pudding One quart milk. $1 \frac{1}{2}$ squares chocolate, six level tablespoons sugar, one half cup shredded cocoanut, eight level tablespoons cornstarch, whites of two eggs, two teaspoons vanilla. Use two double bollers and scald a pint of milk in each. When hot put the chocolate into one and the cocoanut into the other. Divide the sugar and cornstarch and mix in two cups.

So, as long as these Diamonds last, it will be possible to buy them here under the regular market for Add a bit of salt to each and dilute with enough cold milk to pour. When the chocolate is melted add the cornstarch mixture from one cup and stir until thick and smooth, then cover, and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the remaining cornstarch to the cocoanut and milk, and cook in the same manner. When done remove from the fire and add the egg whites boaten stiff, allowing half for each double boiler; then add half the vanilla to each. Wet a mold in cold water and add half of one mixture, then half of the other. Repeat the chill thoroughly. When ready to serve turn on a glass dish and serve with cream, either plain or whipped. A French Dish A favorite dish in a French family consists of Spanish mackerel served with young leeks. The leeks, with their leaves on, are boiled for half an hour in salted water and a tablespoonful of butter. Meanwhile a Spanish mackerel that has been split down the back is seasoned inside and out with salt and pepper, folded and brushed thoroughly with melted butter and broiled for ten minutes on each side. The fish is served in the middle of the platter with the leeks arranged around it and accompanied by a rich cream sauce seasoned with parsley and lemon juice. A. Left-Over Suggestion. When you have boiled a ham do not insist upon its appearing on the family board after it has been eaten down to the serag ends. These are unsightly and by that time the family is tired of it at any rate. Instead, make use of the chopper and turn the small pieces into croquettes, or mix them with creamed eggs baked in a pudding dish or even have some dainty minced ham sandwiches for lunch mixed with mayonnaise, a little chopped lettuce, and some cut up sweet pickles. Fruit Economy. When preparing apples or other fruit for cooking, first wash the fruit thoroughly and then save all the good skins, cores, etc.; put a little water over these and simmer on stove gently, then strain and pour the juice in with the fruit, and you will find that the fruit will be much richer and more highly flavored. Cinnamon Jumbles Mix as for the lemon jumbles, omitting the lemon and adding two tablespoonfuls clanamon. To make the cakes, roll lightly between the hands a small piece of dough, join the two ends, making a ring, lay in the bake pan, sprinkle with sugar and bake in a hot oven Baking Apples. When baking apples baste them often with their own juice. This is as essential for good results as to baste a roast. Everybody has some friend whom they wish to make happy. It may be mother or father, sister or brother. It may be a wife, or it may be a sweetheart — and no better time than Christmas is so appropriate — so suggestive. Nothing makes one feel happier than to gladden the heart of another. Our stock of Jewelry and Bric-a-brac is now complete.

THINGS GOOD TO REMEMBER. Soda Crackers with Raisins and Almonds—Onion in Gravy. Dip any of the crisp soda crackers in milk, but do not permit them to become too sodden. Brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with sugar and spread upon a platter, on which there is room enough to lie singly. Put in the oven, let them brown slightly, and sprinkle with minced raisins and almonds. Lay two or three together and serve with whipped cream. All white meats gain in flavor from a delicate onion admixture with the gravy. The nion is to be grated and put over the meat before it has just finished roasting and then blended by basting. In this way one avoids the burnt onion slices, which sometimes result from other methods, and which have, in a way, caused the addition of onion to be regarded with disfavor. The bits of tongue and ham which do not look well upon the table should be saved and chopped up together for meat pies. Spinach prepared with a butter sauce is mixed with the fragments just before they are put into the chopper. A little tomato ketchup is an improvement. The thickening should be either grated bread or cracker crumbs. The usual pie crust is best, with a little niggardliness in the matter of shortening. An old carpet dyed often looks as good as new. If, therefore you have a carpet which is badly faded, but otherwise in good repair, send it to be dyed, and if you choose a nice color you will be delighted when you get it back again. All shoes are rulled if wet too often, and poor shoes suffer most of all. If the shoes have been thoroughly wet don't try to dry, them quickly. After removing them rub them with plain lard or vaseline and let them stand in a cool place until thoroughly dry, when they will have regained much of the original oil of the leather. A delicious savory can be made by pounding together the yolks of hard-boiled eggs and sardines freed from bone (equal quantitles) and lemon juice and salt to taste. Fill the whites with the mixture, stand on fried croutons of bread, put a tiny bit of whipped cream on top, and serve garnished with parsley. Shave beef very fine, put into a frying pan when good and hot, season with pepper and salt just before serving. Beat two or three eggs light and stir in and you have an appetizing dish easily prepared for tea. Cold ham is also good. The Use of Mineral Waters Unless it is known positively that the mineral water is a pure kind, use distilled water, which is always pure, although it may not be as agreeable to drink.

A housekeeper with small children found the closet room in her house very limited, and invented the following device: A piece of smooth wire, small enough to go through the hole in the top of a safety pin, was fastened to the first hook in the closet. Then she slipped on to this a number of large safety pins. The wire was passed through or over each hook, with a number of pins between, and fastened to the last hook, being drawn as taut as possible. In hanging garments up, slip one or two pins through the band, as may be required. In this way a great many dresses may be hung side by side in a small space, and an article can be hung up or tanned down without disturbing the others. This kind of clothesline will prove of great value in a summer hotel, cottage, or hall bedroom. It can be made to hold one's entire wardrobe, except the nicest things, and each garment can be seen without wasting time in searching fo. it. Scalloped Corned Beef. Two cups of milk, one slice onion, one-half cup chopped celery, three level tablespoons butter, three level tablespoons flour, one fourth level teaspoon salt, one-eighth level teaspoon pepper, two cups corned beef cut into cubes. Scald the milk with the onion and celery. Cook for ten minutes, then strain. Melt the butter, add the flour, salt and pepper, and when blended stir in the hot milk gradually. Cook for five minutes, then add the corned beef. Pour into a buttered baking dish and cover with buttered bread crumbs. Bake for 20 minutes in a hot oven. Potato Scones. Sift a cupful and a half of flour with a half teaspoonful of salt and two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and rub in three tablespoonfuls of shortening. Add one cupful of light freshly mashed potatoes, add one well-beaten egg and enough milk to make a soft dough. Roll out half inch thick, cut and bake on a hot griddle or in a hot oven. Serve very hot with plenty of butter. Citron Preserves. Pare, weigh and scald with a piece of alum, the size of a walnut, in water, one large citron. Boll until sufficiently tender to pierce with a straw, slice and remove the seeds. Add its weight in sugar and allow Add its weight in sugar and allow to stand thus over night. Boll half an hour with a pinch of mace and two lemons sliced. Bottle while hot. Apple Pancakes Mix one pint of sour milk, one teaspoonful of saleratus, one cupful of Indian meal, one cupful of molasses, three sweet apples cut fine and sufficient flour to thicken. Fry in deep boiling lard and serve hot with cinnamon (powdered) and pulverized sugar mixed.

Architects Who Have Won Their Way Through Pure Merit. The following is an exact copy from the Democratic paper of Potasi, Mo., where J. A. Lankford and his brother, Mr. A. E. Lankford, were born. Lankford & Bro, as will be explained in the article, are Negro architects. They are young men of ability, character and standing. J. A. Lankford is president of the Washington Negro Business League, an LEGAL NOTICE John F. Rhines. So STRAIGHTEN KINKY or CURLY HAIR that it can be put up in any style desired consistent with its length. Ford's Hair Pomade was formerly made by the only safe preparation known to us that makes kinky or curly hair straight, as shown above. It is made the most sturdy and easy to comb. These results may be obtained from one treatment; 2 to 4 bottles are usually sufficient for a year. The hair prevents dandruff, relieves itching, organizes the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives new life and strength to the hair. It harmless, it is a softer necessity for ladies, gentlemen and chil'den. Ford's Hair Pomade is about 15S and label "OZONIZED OX MARROW," was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1817.

A., and prominently connected with the St. Luke's and True Reformers Lankford & Bro. have designed and built more buildings than any other firm of its kind. The supervising architect of the United States, in passing on their plans for the Jamestown Exposition, said: 'The plans of J. A. Lankford & Bro., rank first in every respect, from a standpoint of beauty, design and prices.' "J. A. Lankford & Bro., architects an builders, of Washington, D. C., who were born and reared in Potosí, Mo., have just been selected by the white Presbyterian Church committee of this city to plan and build their new church which is to be one of the finest in the city. There were eight white competitors in the architects' contest for this building, all white except Lankford & Bro., whose plans were found to be the most satisfactory in every way over those given by his white competitors." We are glad to note that J. A Lankford was unanimously elected by the board of directors supervising architect and engineer of the National Negro Fair at Mobile, Ala. This fair, has been incorporated as a National Exposition for the Negroes of America. We congratulate them on getting such a talented and worthy young man as their supervisor of construction. DEATH OF MRS. BAILEY. The funeral of Mrs. H. L. Bailey, wife of Dr. Bailey, took place from the Thirteenth Street: Presbyterian Church on last Wednesday at three o'clock. Dr. Grimke spoke of the useful life and high character of the deceased, and J. of her great loss to her race and the community Remarks were also made by Rev. Howard and Rev. Garner. Among her last words was a plea for her race and a wish that all her people should uphold the hands of Mr. Monroe Trotter in his efforts for their good. The floral offerings were numerous, testifying to the great worth and appreciation of the deceased, whose good influence reached even the children. An offering bearing the inscription "May OPPORTUNITY ForYoungMen OPPORTUNITY ForYoungMen There is a growing demand at lucrative salaries in all sections of the country, and especially in the South, for young men trained in agriculture.
