Barnett, colored, Is Chosen Municipal Judge By The People of Chicago Others Elected EIGTTHY YEAR. Negro Elec AT Hon. Fred L. Ba Chosen Munic The People Others Chicago.—Chicago is just awakening a realization of what it means to give a Negro judge, and the howl of protest which began Wednesday gained crescendo when it was announced at Frederick L. Barnett, the judge question, would not be assigned exsively to the trial of cases involving persons of his own race. "This is not a 'Jim Crow' court," denied Chief Justice Olsen, of the new imperial court. "I shall assign Mr. Arnott where I think he will do the best good." Barnett was elected to a two-year term as municipal judge as a Republi- cism, despite the fact that he ran 30.0 votes below the next lowest candi- late on that ticket. It is said that Thomas Lantry (Dem.) who lacked by 400 votes of defeating Barnett was easily scratched by the Republicans, managed to squeeze in on the Re- publican landslide, because the voters to bunch their ballots for any one of the Democratic candidates. If the Republicans expect to retain Negro vote they must learn to vote to Negro, as we vote for you. RACE RECOGNITION AT LAST. Declared Man Elected Member of Asso- ssembly From Richest District sien H. Palmer, (Colored) Defeats Thomas Ramsey, Democrat and Irishman, in the Third, Fourth and Seventh Wards. Milwaukee, Wis.—One of the sur- ses of the election in this county the victory of Lucien H. Palmer, red, Republican candidate for the demby, over Thomas Ramsey, Dem- mal. The district comprises the four, Fourth and Seventh wards, and probably the richest district in the city of Wisconsin from the standpoint the tax assessors' rolls, it being the best-town business district of the prosels of the state, in which many the largest corporations and banks are their main offices. The colored man put up an active design and enlisted the active sup- of his race in the district, as well as urging Republicans and Democrats throughout the district to support him. Mr. Ramsey is the present member of the legislature and served several terms in the common council as alderman of the Third ward. He is more thoroughly acquainted with the city charter than most former aldermen, having made it a special study, especially as regards the finances of the city. Mr. Palmer is the first colored man to be elected a member of the assembly in the history of the state. He is a caterer residing at 171 Sixth street, and enjoys a wide acquaintance not only among the people of his race, but among citizens generally. Mr. Palmer received the support of hundreds of loyal Democrats who disapproved of the manner in which the colored men had been neglected by the Republican party in Milwaukee in the division of party honors. The Evening Wisconsin is in error when it says he is the first colored man to be elected to any office in Wisconsin. P. D. Thomas, a Negro, was elected coroner of Racine county about ten years ago and served throughout the term with credit, and was only defeated for reelection to a second term of about ten votes. James Parrish, another Negro, was elected and served as alderman of the city of Waupaca for three successive terms. J. B. Perkins, another Negro, was elected justice of the peace at La Crosse, Wis., about two years ago. Mr. Palmer's campaign was managed by a committee consisting of J. D. Cook, W. T. Green, Alex Price, J. B. Buford, C. M. White, Richard Reed and S. R. Banks. Meetings were held weekly at the law offices of W. T. Green, where plans were laid and arrangements made for carrying them cut. The Republican county committee generously donated $30 toward their campaign fund. This was the only money received from any source. All other bills were met by Mr. Palmer himself. Many colored families are anticipating moving to Canada and the North in the Spring. WICHITA, KANSAS, SATURDAY, NOV. 17, 1906. Colored Men Elected to Various Of- Cook County Last Tuesday. There were a number of prominent Negro Republicans elected on the Republican ticket Tuesday at Chicago. Among them were: HON. F. L. BARNETT. (Judge of Municipal Court.) HON. OSCAR DE PRIEST. (County Commissioner.) RECORD OF LYNCHINGS. Four Thousand Put to Death in Last Twenty-Five Years—Ninety-five Per Cent of the Victims Have Been of Negro Blood. Washington.—Four thousand persons have been put to death without warrant of law in the United States. Ninety-five per cent of them were Negroes charged with assaults on white women. The methods of execution comprised hanging, shooting, flogging, burning at the stake and flaying. In one instance, in Arkansas, the victim's arms were twisted from their sockets. As a rule, the more atrocious the crime the more atrocious the punishment. Before the wholesale lynching of Negroes in Atlanta, Louisiana and Alabama held the lynching record. But Georgia now goes to the head with something like 55 victims. Burning at the state has been almost as frequent as hanging and more frequent than shooting. The example was set by the people of Paris, Tex., in February, 1893, when Henry Smith, a Negro farm hand, was burned alive after he had been tortured with red hot irons. His feet were seared first and then the upper part of his body. His tongue was burned out and the irons, partly cooled, were then thrust into his eyes. Then he was slowly roasted to death on a pine platform saturated with kerosene. The flames were stiffled from time to time with buckets of water so that his agony might be prolonged. Up to 1892 the commonest form of lynching was by hanging. In that year 235 men were lynched—200 in the south and 35 in the north and west. Of the 235, 16 were whites, who were shot to death for crimes ranging from horse stealing to murder. In 1894 there were 190 lynchings, 70 of them by fire. The lynchings averaged about 150 a year until 1901, when the dropped to 135, but in 1901 more Negroes were burned at the stake for assaulting white women than in any year since 1893. The example set in the south extended to the southwest. Kansas had a record of 17 lynchings, all by hanging, but in January, 1901, Fred Alexander, a young Negro, was bound in chains for an attempted assault on Miss Eva May Roth. He was also suspected of the murder of Miss Pearl Forbes. Alexander protested innocence of both crimes, but he was not believed. His hands were shackled by the father of the Forbes girl and the brother of Miss Roth and his body was given to the flames. Gov. Stanley denounced the sheriff of Leavenworth county in unmeasured terms and offered a reward for conviction of the lynchers, but nothing ever came of it. In February of the same year, 1901, George Ward, a Negro, was hanged in Terre Haute, Ind., by lynchers and before life was extinct his body was lowered and cast into a flaming heap of brushwood and consumed. He had confessed assaulting and murdering Ida-Finkelstein. Georgetis's most noteworthy lynching by fire was in April, 1899, when Sam Hose, who murdered Alfred Cranford and then assaulted Cranford's wife, was burned at the stake. The officials of the town of Newman, saw him tied to a tree a few miles from Palmetto. It was first proposed to burn him in the garden of Mrs. McElroy, mother of Mrs. Cranford, but she objected to the litter that a fire would make, so he was taken to a field. After being bound one of the lynchers sliced off Hose's right ear and another man cut off his left ear. He never uttered a moan. Asked if he had anything to say, he said he had been paid $20 by a Negro preacher to kill Cranford and that the assault on the farmer's wife was an afterthought. Hose broke away from his bonds after he had been burning ten minutes and was kicked into the blazing logs and chained more securely. The embers were scattered and he did not die for 20 minutes. A state convention was called to meet in Atlanta to consider the question of lynching in a few weeks after Sam Hose had been put to death, but the movement came to nothing so far as denunciation of the practice was concerned. The majority of the delegates were rather in favor of lynchin than opposed to it. This was illustrated in the summer of 1904 at Statesboro, Ga. Two Negroes charged with murder had been placed under the protection of the state militia, but the malitia offered no real resistance when a mob descended upon the prisoners, who were tied together and burned alive by a mob of 1,000 citizens. The officers were court-martialed and Capt. Hitch, who was in command, was dismissed and Lieut. Kell was suspended for a year. The others were censured. Georgia averaged about 26 lynchings a year from 1901 up to the present year, the majority being by hanging or shooting. And yet we are told that America is the most civilized country in the world. Does these dark pages bespeak extreme civility? What barbarous natives, could be guilty of more fidelish punishment for only alleged crimes than this shows the perpetrators to be? Surely, there must be a final reckoning day awaiting some one. WOULDN'T ANSWER NEGRO. Miss Anna P. Thomas, represented to be a cousin of President Roosevelt, was a witness in Police Court in Washington against a prisoner defended by a Negro lawyer. "I refuse to answer questions asked by a darkey," Miss Thomas said. "He isn't a darkey," Judge Mullowyn stated. "He is an American citizen and a member of the bar. He is defending this man, and he has a right to ask you questions." "I refuse to answer a Negro," she insisted. "You must answer," his honor replied. "I won't ever for you." "Madam, you had better be quiet." "Keep quiet yourself." "I shall be compelled to fine you unless you are quiet." "You won't fine me." "Madam, I fine you $10, in default of which I will send you to jail for two days." Judge Mullowny announced. Miss Thomas was escorted from the stand and her fine was paid. Roosevelt and The Negro The action of President Theodore Roosevelt in approving a general order to dishonorably discharge a whole battalion of Negro soldiers—members of the famous and gallant 25th Infantry, U. S. A. for a failure of the department to be able to exactly locate those who are alleged to have had a hand in the very unpleasant Brownsville, Tex., episode is as startling and surprising as it is unprecedented, extremely harsh and unusual. Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States of America, would have been the last man in the whole round world whom any man acquainted with his past utterances would have believed would make so sweeping and indiscriminate an order which places a life disgrace over he heads of the innocent Negro soldier as well as those who may have known something of this unpleasantness. If any Negro soldier or civilian, has violated any law or has committed any crime, the Negroes of America do not now and never have condoned him in his criminality—but because in this instance, right in the hot-bed of Negrohating, in time of trouble a body of Negroes maintain that silence after an act which has proven so complete a cloak for the oppressors of the Negro in those sections, all believe it is unjust and unfair to the brave men of this battalion to heap the blame on the heads of all. In the South, yes, in Texas, mobs composed of hundreds of white man go in broad open day-time, lynch, burn, ransack, assault and murder innocent as well as alleged guilty Negroes, without masks and with no disguise, and because NO ONE KNOWS WHO WAS IN THE MOB (?) prosecutions for such acts of cowardice, brutality and savagery are dropped and no white man is brought to justice—now because the Negro hands back this same "KNOW NOTHING RULE" a whole battalion must suffer. Such for Justice (!!!!) This HUSH MOUTH RULE" has been worked successfully by the white man of the South and as a result more than four thousand Negroes have been swung illegally by the neck, shot or burned, and nothing is said, and no president, no, not ever our former idol—Teddy Roosevelt—has been able to find a remedy to make the guilty "peach"—but, when it is tried successfully by the Negro, something MUST happen. American idea of Fair Play??? Does the President's recent action mean to imply that his declarations "No man down—all men up" does not apply to the Negro? Is the Negro eliminated from his "Square Deal" or has he a "square deal" for one people and another and different deal for the Negro? On the face of it the action of the President seems very, very raw, not only by the Negroes but also by thousands of fair-minded and honest-thinking white people. For be it thankfully remembered that not all white men are bitter, extreme and unreasonable enemies of the Negro in this country and while there are thousands of hot-headed, unreasonable white men who applaud the Presiden in his action simply because his order affects the Negro, on the other hand there are thousands of white men who do not approve of the action of the President—not because those affected are white or black—but because hey do not believe his course right, just and equitable in this case at hand. No man in America since the day of the Great Emancipator, Abraham Lincoln, has by his words, acts and deeds so engrafted himself in the very he art-strings of the American Negro as has our present President, Theodore Roosevelt, and it is with great reluctance that the eleven million Negroes of America will believe him insincere. The recent order of the President is hard to bear, but having had unfilching faith in the fairness of Roosevelt, his apparent superb desire to do the right, his manifold avowed policy for merit, the man and not classes, we are persuaded to believe him o have acted ill-advised and without sufficient insight of the far-fetched nature of his order, and if his former words count he will make good all hat is apparently lost. While it may and does seem that condemnations are in order, yet even this stand can sometimes be too hasty, and while condemnations can hardly better the case, it may perchance augment against the Negro. In almost every act dealing with the Negro aside from this, President Roosevelt is admitted by friend and doe to have acted in fairness to the Negro, and it will not be amiss o listen for future explanations before going too fast now. The act of President Roosevelt in The act of President Roosevelt in this case proves one thing most vividly --- to the mind of the Negro, and that is he must inculcate within himself a strange spirit of self-reliance, and not in the future pin all their faith and future hopes on any none man. Be self-reliant, be race-loving, and sink into your heart that brotherly and racial love which alone is the bulwark of any race's stability. It shows another thing—that each day the white man, as such, is throwing the Negro more and more on his own resources, among his own, and to his own, and unless the Negro will awaken to the needs of the hour fateful must be his future. In a country where a Negro as a soldier is deprived of the full privileges as such, restricted to rise just so high in the official rank of the army, estraced while wearing the uniform of defenders of his country, discriminated against in the army and out of it, where as a soldier he must silently witness the lynching, burning, murdering and killing of his kinsmen, in such a country, and with such soldiers, to be a soldier, while patriotic as the Negro has always been, there is little glory, small satisfaction and less self-consciousness in being an American Negro soldier—and to be discharged is more in the nature of a favor than as a punishment. Yet there is that stigma of unfairness and tinge of the monster American race prejudice in the present case which speaks all else but satisfaction. Howbeit, with all these unfavorable conditions, we would not and do not discourage our young men from joining the army of their country—far from his. Even wilt all of this we would admonish them to join on every occasion possible. No harm can come or doing this. This is not a white man's country, a black man's country, a red man's country or a yellow man's country—but is a country for ALL the people, and ere long this will prove out. The Negro must remember he is in the minority and must bear patiently the unprovoked lills, the misdeeds now being heaped upon him—be loyal to your own rae, be peacable with your fellow man, and live in the fear of God, and all things will work out for the better. TO SERVE WITH ROAST DUCK. Baltimore Apple Bread a Favorite Southern Dish. Baltimore apple bread was a favorite accompaniment to duck in the old ante-belium days, and in many old Maryland families still finds abundant appreciation. To make it, rub through a pound of sifted and warmed bread, two-thirds of a cup of butter and three heaping tablespoonfuls sugar. Dissolve half a compressed yeast cake in a cup of milk that has been scalded and cooled to lukewarm. Add to the flour and mix to a stiff batter. Add again three eggs well beaten and beat the batter until it blisters. It needs be very stiff. Cover and let rise over night in a warm place. In the morning it should be nearly doubled in bulk. Divide in two portions and roll out in cakes about half an inch thick. Spread one with rather tart apple sauce, cover with the other and let them rise together about half an hour, then bake in a moderate oven until well done. As soon as taken from the oven spread with more well-cooked and sweetened apple sauce, dredge lightly with sugar, sprinkle with nutmeg or cinnamon, and set back in the oven long enough for the sugar to melt. Eat very hot. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. Serve crisp celery with cold meat. it is always appreciated, and is a fine r serve tonic. For washing coarse clothes soft soap is best, and will go further than the hard yellow soap. To clean your pewter, first wash it in very hot water, rub with fine silver sand, and when quite dy polish with a leather. Croquettes baked in the oven instead of fried, and serve with a rich brown sauce, are the invention of a housewife who was once a victim of dyspepsia.

Parisian Meat Supply. The last year for which complete statistics concerning the meat supply of Paris have been published is 1903. From the reports of that year it appears that 267,027 cattle, 274,390 calves and 2,047,770 sheep were slaughtered at the city abattoirs and produced 156,007,850 kilograms (or 827,616,485 pounds) of meat of which 123,712,180 kilograms (259,795,578 pounds) were consumed in Paris, and 22,922,650 kilograms exported. Some of the choicest of French beef goes to England, where the fillets and other prime cuts are in demand for clubs, hotels, and the best class of restaurants. During the same year there were killed 282,508 hogs, which yielded 27,657,350 kilograms (58,080,435 pounds of pork, and 29,370 horses, which furnished 7,305,650 kilograms (or 15,341,865 pounds) of meat, all of which was consumed in Paris. Marion Harland. The celebrated authoress, so highly esteemed by the women of America, says on pages 103 and 445 of her book, "Eve's Daughters; or, Common Sense for Mald, Wife and Mother": "For the aching back—should it be slow in recovering its normal strength—an Allcock's Plaster is an excellent comforter, combining the sensation of the sustained pressure of a strong warm hand with certain tonic qualities developed in the wearing. It should be kept over the seat of unaciness for several days—in obstinate cases, for perhaps a fortnight." "For pain in the back wear an Allcock's Plaster constantly, renewing as it wears off. This is an invaluable support when the weight on the small of the back becomes heavy and the aching incessant." The man who sows his life in the furrows of human need will reap a rich reward.—W. Smith. Dyspepsia of Women Caused by Female Disorders and Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound A great many women suffer with a form of indigestion or dyspepsia which does not seem to yield to ordinary treatment. While the symptoms seem to be similar to those of ordinary indigestion, yet the medicines universally prescribed do not seem to restore the patient's normal condition. Mrs. M. Wright Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a derangement of the female organism, and which, while it causes a disturbance similar to ordinary indigestion, cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has a peculiar tonic effect on the female organism. As proof of this theory we call attention to the case of Mrs. Maggie Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y., who was completely cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound after everything else had failed. She writes: "For two years I suffered with dyspepsia which遭到了 the dirty sweaty dues that was unable to attend my daily duties. I felt weak and nervous, and nothing that I ate tasted good and it caused a disturbance in my stomach. I tried different dyspepsia-cures, but nothing seemed to help me. I was advised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial, and I was happily surprised to find that my digestive days I began to enjoy and properly digest my food. My recovery was rapid, and in five weeks I was a well woman. I have recommended it to many suffering women." No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement or has such a record of eures of female troubles, as has Lydia L. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

Exercise of the Franchise. Edward L. Thorndyke, writing on education, especially high school education, in the Bookman, says a knowledge of the duties and privileges of the exercise of the franchise ought to be one of the cardinal teachings of our high school. "The exercise of the franchise," he tells us, "is no longer chiefly a matter of honesty and good-will and wisdom in choosing between two clear lines of party policy or between two sets of officials. It is a matter of more or less expert knowledge. "A future voter ought to know that for a city to give a traction company the use of its streets is identical with giving a neighbor the use of part of your house, wise or unwise, according to who the neighbor is and what he pays you; he ought to know that laws can do more against consumption than medicine can; he ought to believe that one man's gain need not be others' loss, as surely as he believes that two and two are not five; he ought to understand as clearly as he understands addition that a man's contribution to the world is to be measured by the number and worth of the wants he satisfies, and that a man's cost to the world is to be measured by the deprivations he causes. Is it not silly to let the youth of the land spend twelve years in school and at its close be unable, even though he wishes, to protect common property as well as his own, ignorant of the simplest rudiments of public hygiene, possessed by the fallacy that what others have has been taken from him, and burdened with the superstition that a man gives to the world what he spends in it and takes from it the wealth he acquires. Is it not a calamity that although eight out of ten of our high school graduates will live in cities or city suburbs, there is apparently in no high school a course on municipal problems?" Higher Education. In his Chancellor's Address at the fourth centenary of Aberdeen University, Lord Strathcona compared higher education in Great Britain with that in Germany and the United States. While praising Aberdeen, he held that the Old World has much to learn from the New. He was convinced that on this side of the Atlantic our institutions of learning adapt themselves more easily and readily to the needs of their constituencies. "They found out long ago that law and medicine and theology are not the only legitimate points of academic study; and in their faculties of applied science they are training their young men to do work that is most loudly called for. They have never accepted the view that universities must necessarily be institutions cloistered and apart from the main current of public life and service." In this country there is, indeed, little danger that the college-bred man may sacrifice practical utility to remote ideals. But, as Mr. A. C. Benson lately remarked in his paper on "The Uselessness of Knowledge," the pursuit of knowledge as an end is not inconsistent with practical activity. This is easily to be seen in Germany, which, with her high university standards, has combined advanced and successful methods in industry and commerce. Give a youth a trained mind, and then, if he chooses to be "practical," he can be more intensely so than any of your rule-of-thumb men. The Velocity of Light. Light moves with the amazing velocity of 185,000 miles a second, a speed a million times as great as that of a rifle bullet. It would make the circuit of the earth's circumference, at the equator, seven times in one beat of the pendulum. For a long time the light was thought to be instantaneous, but it is now known to have a measurable velocity. The discovery was first made by means of the eclipses of Jupiter's satellites. Jupiter, like the earth, casts a shadow, and when his moons pass through it, they are eclipsed, just as our moon is eclipsed when passing through the earth's shadow. Jupiter's shadow far surpasses in magnitude that of the earth. His moon revolves around him more rapidly than our moon revolves around the earth, and their orbits are nearly in the plane of the planet's orb. Consequently, says the Hesperian, they all, with the exception of the fourth and most distant satellite, pass through the planet's shadow and are eclipsed at every revolution. A Danish estate has been purchased by the dowager empress of Russia. Evidently she recognizes the necessity of providing herself with a place in which she may retire after she and Pobledonostseff find it impossible to go on running things in Russia.

Little Girl's Obstinate Case of Eczema —Mother Says: "Cuticura Remedies a Household Standby." "Last year, after having my little girl treated by a very prominent physician, for an obstinate case of eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies, and was so well pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afforded that we discarded the physician's prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs were covered with running sores. In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble. We find that the Cuticura Remedies are a valuable household standby, living as we do, twelve miles from a doctor, and where it costs from twenty to twenty-five dollars to come up on the mountain. Mrs. Lizzie Vincent Thomas, Fairmount, Walden's Ridge, Tenn., Oct. 13, 1905." First Flower of Spring. First Flower or Spring. In the northern United States the snowdrop is the only garden flower that we can count on year after year as the earliest sign of spring. Its pendulous white blossoms, with "heart-shaped seal of green" sung by Rossett often appear before the last snow has gone. Luckily, even city families need not be without snowdrops, for they have been known to thrive in narrow passageways between all houses. Most bulbous plants like the baking hot sun of midsummer in order to ripen their bulbs, but the snowdrop thrives best in partial shade. It blooms earlier if it has a chance at the March sun, but is one of the very few that will flower regularly, though less freely, in dense shade and with a northern exposure.—Country Life in America. Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine wash goods when new, owe much of their attractiveness to the way they are laundered, this being done in a manner to enhance their textile beauty.

Try Defiance Starch and you will be pleasantly surprised at the improved appearance of your work. Wouldn't Fit. Some visitors from the north attended service at a colored church in Alabama and were much amused when the good old preacher referred to John I. and John II. as "John with one eye and John with two eyes!" But when he gave out a hymn beginning "Purge Me with Hyssop," there was consternation in the choir and great fumbling around for a tune to fit the words. At last the leading chorister addressed the preacher: "Say, Brother Johnsning, won't you please try some older yarb?"—Lippincott's. When Is an Old Mald? When does a girl become an old maid? This question, blunt and shorn of delicate innuendo, is now figuring in the somnolent discussion of Philadelphia society. One might say that a girl becomes an old maid when she fails to marry betimes, but that is not the point. What is the exact year that ushers in spinsterhood and closes forever the gates of youth? Of course, this is not a matter in which man has any word to say. No rational wearer of trousers would tempt fate and the scorn of femininity by attempting a suggestion, for any arbitrary dead line would necessarily bring down upon the luckless masculine head a storm of reprobation. It has been left to the women themselves to brave the peril. And they have placed the age at 40 years. Under this ruling a woman is a tender bud until twoscore years have counted their gloomy litany of days and the hair near the scalp begins to whiten. IT'S THE FOOD. The True Way to Correct Nervous Troubles. Nervous troubles are more often caused by improper food and indigestion than most people imagine. Even doctors sometimes overlook this fact. A man says: "Until two years ago waffles and butter with meat and gravy were the main features of my breakfast. Finally dyspepsia came on and I found myself in a bad condition, worse in the morning than any other time. I would have a full, sick feeling in my stomach, with pains in my heart, sides and head. "At times I would have no appetite for days, then I would feel ravenous, never satisfied when I did eat and so nervous I felt like shrieking at the top of my voice. I lost flesh badly and hardly knew which way to turn until one day I bought a box of Grape-Nuts food to see if I could eat that. I tried it without telling the doctor, and liked it fine; made me feel as if I had something to eat that was satisfying and still I didn't have that heaviness that I had felt after eating any other food. "I hadn't drank any coffee then in five weeks. I kept on with the Grape-Nuts and in a month and a half I had gained 15 pounds, could eat almost anything I wanted, didn't feel badly after eating and my nervousness was all gone. It's a pleasure to be well again." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a reason." HOCH ELECTED GOVERNOR. Topeka, Nov. 12. — Official returns sent to Chairman Crummer at Republican headquarters today show that Gov. Hoch will have a plurality of close to two thousand votes but it will not quite reach that figure. At midnight three counties had not reported, the one hundred and two counties showing a plurality of 1,993 for Hoch. The three remaining counties are in the extreme western part of the state and the returns will not make any material change in the result. If the three counties should give the entire vote for Harris this would not reduce the plurality of Gov. Hoch to below fifteen hundred. The Republican state ticket is elected entirely and excepting the governor or the plurality will probably range from eight to twenty thousand. It is believed that W. A. Johnstone, candidate for justice of the supreme court, will lead the ticket with J. M. Nation, candidate for auditor, a close second. R. A. Burch will probably be the low man on the supreme court ticket. The pluralities as given by each county on official returns received at Republican headquarters today are as follows: follows: — County Hoch. Harris Allen 193 ... Anderson 58 Atchison 668 ...

Topeka, Nov. 12. — Official returns from 103 counties out of a total of 105 in the state give Governor Hoch a plurality of 1984 votes over Colonel A. W. Harris, Democrat. The returns from the two missing counties will change these figures but slightly. Governor Hoch did not receive a majority of all votes cast for governor, but under the laws of Kansas a plurality is said all that is necessary to elect. Fame.

HOW DEBILITY SHOWS HOW DEBILITY SHOWS And Why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Are a Specific for Dangerous Physical Declines. The symptoms of general debility vary according to the cause but weakness is always present, a tendency to perspire and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears, sometimes black spots passing before the eyes, weak back, vertigo, wakefulness caused by inability to stop thinking, and unrefreshing sleep. The cause of the trouble may be some drain on the system or it may be mental or physical overwork, sometimes insufficient nutrition due to digestive disturbance. In the latter case there is generally a loss of appetite and a coated tongue as well as general languor and debility. Miss Lula M. Metzger, a stenographer, living at 71 Mill street, Wetatown, N.Y., suffered for over a year from general debility. "It was caused by overstudy," she says, "and I had no ambition, didn't want to go anywhere, my food didn't taste good, I was run down, Helfess and distress. I took medicines but they failed to help me. Finally friends recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to my mother and she got some for me. I took them for some time and was entirely cured and have had no return of the trouble." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure debility because they actually make new, red, rich blood, and as the blood carries nourishment to all the organs and tissues of the body, nerves as well as muscles, the new blood stimulates the organs to do the work that nature expects of them and normal health follows. Not only is this treatment sufficient to cure debility but many severe nervous disorders as well. The pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Scheneotady, N. Y. Send for free diet book.

INDIAN GRADUATE OF DARMOUTH Made Dramatic Plea to the Senate Committee — Only Sixty Acres From Which He Had to Make a Living. Vinita, I. T., Nov. 15. — D. W. C. Duncan, a full blood Cherokee Indian, a graduate of Dartmouth, made a dramatic plea today to the senate Indian affairs committee for removal of restrictions of all kinds from the lands of Cherokee Indians. He said his full blood brethren would fight allotment to the death. Mr. Duncan told his own experience. He had devoted most of his life to the improvement of a 300 acre farm near Vinita to be in comfort in his old age. Under the allotment provisions the percapita money value of his head right was $325. This enabled him to take only sixty acres of the kind of land of which his farm was composed. He was not permitted to buy the remaining portion of his farm and other Cherokee citizens took it, even the corn that stood ripening in the field. Since that time the utmost toil and labor had not enabled him to make a living from this land and only penury in his old age awaited him. "If I, with my intelligence and the good soil of my place, cannot make a living what is the misery that will come to the ignorant full blooms in the flint hills east of here?" asked Duncan. The members of the committee were deeply impressed with the statements of Mr. Duncan. Senator Teller told Duncan that years ago he foresaw what would happen under the Curtis bill and that he had opposed the allotment of lands in Indian Territory. "It was my preference," said Senator Teller, "that the Indians should be allowed to work out their own civilization under the conditions of the old treaty. The Indian has been hurt more by his misguided friends than by his avowed enemies. I believe that the Indian Rights association has been of immeasurable injury to the American Indian." The senators today discussed means of keeping oil and gas deposits in the territory from falling into the hands of great syndicates. HONORS FOR DEAD. Great Throng of People Pay Tribute of Respect Bakersfield, Cal., Nov. 15.—The remains of the late Major General William R. Shafter arrived at 6 o'clock this evening from the McKitterick ranch, and lay in state at the Southern Pacific depot until 11:40 o'clock, when passage was taken on the Owl train for San Francisco. At 11:30 this morning the local guard of honor, composed of representatives of the G. A. R., Loyal Legion, Masons and the militia, left for the ranch and at 2 o'clock the funeral cortegge began its journey to the railroad. At the station a great throng of people gathered during the evening to pay a last tribute of respect and view the body, which was clothed in the uniform of a major general, with sword and chapeau at the side. Standing guard over the casket was a detachment of soldiers. The banks and leading business houses closed their doors at an early hour this afternoon, to remain closed until tomorrow. Another Advance in Paper Print paper manufacturers will announce another advance of 25 cents per cwt. on Monday morning, despite the fact that two advances of 10 cents and 15 cents per cwt. were made during last month. Print paper is now selling for about 50 cents per hundred more than it was eight months ago. Many of the Wisconsin mills are refusing business, some of them having orders for six months ahead. At least two of the largest mills are contracted for the entire year coming. Manufacturers deny the existence of a combine. They declare they have been losing money so long that all are now willing to jump at a chance to get better prices, and a further advance may be looked for: within two weeks.

It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy.

THE NEGRO NOW It is predicted by the newspaper world that President Roosevelt will have much to say concerning the Ne- gro proglem in his next message to congress. Owing largely to the pres- ent satus of affairs Just how he could dodge recommending some legislation which effects more than ten millions of his subjects is a matter of much conjecture. As’ to recommendations looking to substantial legislation which could in any way alleviate the condi- tions of the Negro in America, no president in twenty-five years has dared to raise his voice. But in these strenuous times of a virtual return to slavery through peon- age, when South and North unite in conferences to search for a purgatory in which the Negro maybe safely landed, and there stripped "of every ‘qualification which distinguish men from beasts, where these dark species of taxation without representation may be held in subjection without ap- peal or the right of petition certainly ouk far-seeing much-honored pres! dent can find opportunity to come to our relief. Certainly if by any’ means he can find jusice in his action for discharging without honor three com- panies of his regular-army because a few who knew, would not divulge alt, concerning the ikiling of one man, when poor innocent defenseless Ne- groes by the thousands have been ‘killed and burned in Texas and other states; when our imploring, our pet!- tion, and our combined prayers could not as much ‘as elicit « passing notice from the president then certainly Roosevelt, who is reputed above all our presidents for justice and square deal- wut WICH TA SEARCHLIGHT Y Are Invited! ou Are invited!

Suddenly a footman addressed atin: “I beg your pardon, sir,” said he, “but her ladyshtp sent me to say that whe wishes to speak to you.” Godfrey turned; Lady Annandale was stepping from the carriage. “Yon can go home,” said she to the sfootman. “Very good, my lady.” ‘Then shé gave to Godfrey her hand. “This place—" sho glanced round at the radiaat prospect—“seems scarce- ty the spot sulted to serious discus- sion. We might, perhaps, over there.” So, ‘side by side, Lady Annandale -and Mr. Godfrey Boyne walked across ‘the soft, green turf and established themselves upon chairs under the -eweet-scented lime trees, whose shel- tering boughs masked them from ob- servation. i ‘He beamed amlably found. * “4 have brought you here, that you may continue your last night's inter rapted’ account of the woman with whors you were, in Joye,” said she: “Was in-loye?.

Has that deterior- ated?” Lady Annandale spoke earnest: ly; her face was grave and sad. “To test that is very simple.” “Really?” “I have but to say to her: ‘Marry me, and let us together renew the simplicity of our youth.’ The nest— you remember that I spoke of a nest—?” She bowed her head. “Is fairly Uned. Will you with it accept my heart and name?” Lady Annandale’s arms of aggres. ‘sion, even of defense, were possibly close at hand, but she made no at- tempt to reach them, and was not maladroit in thus leaving them un: touched; for this harmlessness of at- titude on her part induced Godfrey to lay aside his buckler of suspicion, and in reply to her “Then this visit of yours is, I take ft, a tribute—a small tribute to youthful sentiment, to a dead love?” he, as lightly rejoined: “By no means, Love, amongst the other attributes which I have enu- merated, resembles a sachet, with the scent of which we are so familiar ag eee, Na a ey, AN “4 = pe ae 1 that it is advisable sometimes to ‘shake it up anew.” "Then, seriously, he added: “Oh, my ‘dearest, we have lost ten years!” “You would wish to take me to Cey Jon?” He saw the pupils of her eyes con tract at the unattractiveness of the suggestion. “Ot course, if—" It Godfrey had come to her with the intention she believed, or even It this intention had been caused by the spell of prpximity, he must be no longer mistaken in her meaning. “I couldn’t go,” she interrupted. “Then we will leave Ceylon to take care of itself,” he said, carelessly, tak- ing no more notice of her werds than if she had not sald them. “You serfously mean that?” “I was never more serioas in my life. I will abandon that nest and make another over here.” “Then we come to the second court —your heart. Are you quite, quite sure that {t is negotiable flesh, not in a battered condition?” “ swear—” “You needn't; for, oddly enough, 1 believe you.” “You are the only woman f have ever cared for.” “Does not every man tell every woman that?” - She looked into his eyes and laughed. ‘Then, across this chasm Lady Ann- andale lightly threw a plank, accom- plishing with woman's dexterity, more in one moment than Godfrey had been able to do in weeks of ardu- ous work. Vaguely, in a tremor of unforme lated hope, Godfrey saw that that walch bad appeared to him as the end might really be but the begin- ning. “In all the phrases, creeds, common. places which you have sald of love, you have omitted to enumerate the only attributes that woman recog niges,” sald she, and paused to beg him, by a lttle Sphinx-like smile, to pay attention to her words. “These are its power of over-riding ‘every obstacle; of “conferting upon woman a title higher than that of aiteen.” “Go on, please, go on,” he stam- mered.
