Cyrus Field Adams, assistant register Of

Senator Hanna as follows:
Il have noticed in the press dispatches
that you head movement to build a monu-
ment at Canton, Ohio, in memory of our
martyred President William Mckinley. 1

successful issue 1 inclose my check for
$50 as my contribution to the fund. hope
that 1 have the honor of being the first
Afro-American to contribute and that the
race will give literally.

account of the many noble qualities he pos
sessed and that he was my personal friend,
but also because he was the true friend of
the Afro-American people. William Nc

DIES AT NAVAL HOSPITAL,
Young WashinEtOnian a Victim of
Typhoid Fever.

John Joseph Broderick, twenty-five years
of age, young Washingtonian, and for
merly a sailor aboard the U. s. s. Yankton
whose family resides in this city, died yes
terday in the naval hospital at Portsmouth
N H, as the result of an attack of typhoid
fever. The dead man served on the Yank-
ton throughout the Spanish war, and saw
active service on several occa sions.
Mrs. Catherine Broderick, the mother of
the dead man, left this city for Portsmouth
Sunday morning, and arrived at the hos
pital before the death of her son. The
funeral will take place from her residence
4I6 f street southwest. tomorrow morning
at o'clock. Young Broderick was a ma
tive of this city, having been born at 476 E
street southwest. Mrs. Broderick, his
mother, is a widow. Her husband Thomas
ID. Broderick. foreman of the local navy
yard, lost his life there last March when a
piece Of machinery fell upon him killing
him instantly.
Ihe young man attended the public
schools of this city up to the sixth grade
and was one Of the most popular young
men In his class. Upon reaching that grade
young Broderick left school and enlisted at
tne w Washington navy yard as an appren-
tlce boy. He was serving his third enlist
ment when he succumbed to the ravages OF
typhold fever, believed to have been con-
tracted while he was doing duty aboard The

TEA DRINKING HABIT.
The South Increases It's Consumption
of the Fragrant Leaves.
From the New Orleans Times Democrat.

The South Increases It's Consumption
of the Fragrant Leaves.
From the New Orleans Times Democrat
THE increased consumption of tea is one
OF the interesting phases Of modern COM
mercial life in the SOUTH" said a drummer
for New Orleans house, 'and you would
be surprised at the vast change which has
taken place in this respect. The fact is
that during the past few years the changes
In the tea business have amounted to a rev.
olution. I have Just returend from a trip
on the road and I touched some Of the
more remote places in Texas and Misss-
sippi, and while I have been out before in
the same territory, 1 was surprised at the
increased number of tea drinkers.
up to few years ago in the more re-
mote sections of the country tea was used
almost exclusively in the sick room Tea
had to be bought in the country from the
druggist The man who dealt in general
merchandise rarely thought of selling tea,
unless he had medicine counter in his
store. Tea was something finicky. some
thing to be given to the convalescng pa
tient along with crackers tasteless broth
and things of that sort.
This is not the case now. Tea is bought
in rather large quantities by country mer-
chants, and the country folk it for
other than sick room purposes. 1t is ex-
tensively used throughout the country.
There Is still more interesting fact in
connection with the growth Of the tea
trade. Negroes are now great tea con-
sumers. You would be surprised at the
amount OF tea consumed by this element Of
the population. Using tea is a new thing
with the negro element, but since they have
gotten into the tea drinking habit they
have vastly increased the consumption of
the product. Yes, they have about quit
using sassafras roots for tea making pur-
poses, and this rather primitive drink is
now used for its medicinal properties 1t
has exc hanged places with the other tea
These are some of the reasons for the
increased consumption of tea. There are
of course, many other special and general
causes for the new demand, and altogether
the changes form a rather Interesting sub
ject so far as modern commerce Is con-
cerned."

BUSINESS AND Boards.
Most London Men CIean-Shaven or
Wear n Mustache Only.

From the London Express.
This would appear 10 be mainly beard
less age, for. though you do find men in
nearly all pursuits who wear boards they
are nevertheless in a vast minority just
now. In the first place, let us take the
typical city man He is probably engaged
on the stock exchange. and If so 1t will be
remarkable If he wears a beard. Most of
the frequenters of Throgmorton street are
clean shaven. or, at most, a mustache is
cultivated. The same applies to most bank
clerks and young and middle-aged men in
insurance and other offices. Secretaries
OF companies are also generally content
with cultivating slight mustaches, If they
are not altogether clean-shaven.
On the other hand, II, is curious to note
that boards seem fairly popular among
accountants Indeed. it would almost seem
as II the growth of hair on the face were
conducive to clear-headedness in matters
of calculation. so general do boards and
whiskers appear TO be among men of fig
uIes. Middle-aged buyers and travellers in
the wholesale soft goods and the rag
trades also seem partial to cultivating hair
the face. though In retail trades It Is
seldom that more than the mustache Is
grown among men of all ages. For in
stance, bearded men are the exception
rather than the rule among drapers, boot
makers, stationers. grocers. hosiers and
such like callings. In the government serv-
or they cultivate the mustache only. Take
the clerks. telegraphists and sorters in the
post office. Mustaches, especially the
downy. embryo sort, seem rather popular
among the youths and younger men, while
few of their middle-aged seniors indulge
in the luXuries of comfortable boards, but
for the most part the clean-shaven men
manage to hold their own.
AT Somerset House the same remarks may
b. applied, at the treasury and other
government Offices In the army. of course.
they cultivate mustaches, but boards are
practically unknown. even among our gen.
erals. Naval officers are, a rule, clean
shaven. though boards are pretty common
among seamen. The law Is, of course. the
cleanest shaven of all clean-shaven callings
which is. perhaps, but as 1t should be.
Medical men, on the other hand, are rather
fond of their mustaches- One supposes that
they are cultivated when their Wearers
