MR.. ROOSEVELT DEFENDED.
DIR. CrO6ut Justi6es the Dinner with
Booker Washington.

The members of the Second Baptist
| Lyceum colored, II near Third Street,
were addressed yesterday afternoon by
DR. W. A. Croffut on How to Build a
! Man" Considerable attention was paid
to President Roossvolt's dinner to Booker
Washington in DIR. Croffuts address.
When the incident was referred to the
large audience applauded vigorously. DR..
Croffut said in part:
"A man who is properly constructed is
always built from within, like the palm
tree, an endogen, enlarged by pressure
from interior forces. This kind Of human
architecture means a mans proper adap-
tation to externals, fitting himself to
prevailing conditions. Among the quail
ties recommended for cultivation are
trustworthiness IS, or the virtue of doing
exactly as you agree; stamina, the abil-
ity to persist and overcome obstacles;
subordination, obedience to the commands
of an employer and to the laws of the
community, and patience, the ability to
wait"
Two men mentioned by the speaker as
the possessors of these qualifications
were Theodore Roosevelt and Booker
Washington.
II do not see," DR.. Croffut said, why
an invitation to dinner from either of
these gentlemen to the other, and its ac-
ceptance, ought to create the slightest
comment Such matters ought to be so
commonplace as not to attract public at
tentiOn.
People talk about social equality as
though it was a terrible thing to bring
about. / do not see that ii Is terrible or
Objectionable. Social equality exists in
this country and in every country. and
always has existed. For social equality
means merely the right which a has to
Invite to his house. and the equal right
that = has TO invite A to his house; and
the right of both 80 accept or decline the
invitation. a man has z perfect right to
go tc ball II he is invited, whether white
or black, and he has no right to go If he
is not invited.
The exclusion OF negroes from schools.
theatres, hotels. restaurants and cars has
nothing to do with social rights what
ever, or with social equality. Does the
waiter at Il restaurant put on a white
apron to wait upon society? Is running
street car a social function? Is the
engineer Of a railroad train the manager
of social machine? No; the exclusion
OF personal rights, not OF. social rights.
Social equality prevails; but this mere
iy means that all men and all women
have an equal right to accept or reject
invitations. and that as far they recog-
nize each OtEer at ALL IL is a mutual duty
to treat each other with equal Difference.
| see TO passengers on the street cars of
Washington who conduct themselves with
more consideration and poiiteness than
the negroes, though every race produces a
good many brutes.

inviting him to dinner Theodore RoOs.
Welt has done a humane and manly thing,
even if he should not do another during

to District Assembly No. &C are, and at
that time We're, members of local 420 of
the Brotherhood of Painters. Decorators,
and Paperhangers. One of them is an

on Thursday night.
The meeting was presided over by
Harry |. Wells. the Master Workman of

Mr. Hickman denied that the affiliation
WIN lhe DTOlheTnoou, WAS the cause OF
any dissatisfaction, as TO the result of the
recent strike. The move, he said, was
entirely for the purpose of advancing the
best interests of his trade. This, ne said,
could only be done by consolidating local
paperhangers under one head. If a great
number Of the members of Assembly No.
67. he said. had not also held a charter
under the Brotherhood Of Painters, Dec
orators, and Paperhangers they would
have lost the strike within few days
after it had ueen begun As it was, how

Molina is but one of many prominent
Cubans who have publicly advised the
use of Paine's Celery Compound, basing
their recommendations on the benefit
they themselves have derived from its
use.
Not only among business men, lawyers,
clergymen, and physicians, but among all
classes of thoughtful, intelligent people.
Paine's Celery Compound is the one re-
liable remedy for building up the system
when it is run down. 1t is the greatest
nerve and brain invigorator the world
has ever known.
II your wife, daughter, or sister is pale,
languid, headachy, and irritable, persuade
her to try Paine's Celery Compound. If
your husband, son, or brother cannot eat
sleep, or work, and drowsy, dyspeptic
and despondent, induce him to take
Paine's Celery Compound.
1t restores a worn and weak nervous
system to healthy vigCr.
There can be no substitute for Paine's
Celery Compound.

Whatever else has been accomplished in
Cuba, the health of the island has been
wonderfully improved.
In Havana the change has been mag
ical; streets have been asphalted, sewers
built, buildings whitewashed, and drug
stores supplied with scientific, up-to-date
preparations. The demand for Paine's
Celery Compound has grown to enormous
proportions.
The following statement from E. J..
Molina, of the Havana custom house,
shows the standing Paine's has already
secured among the most progressive
energetic people of Havana:

Dear Sirs-I take great pleasure in
stating that / have used your Paine's
Celery Compound, both while in the
United States, as well as in this city.

tive power. especially in this enervating
climate. Very truly yours,

MRS. NATIONS BRUTAL SPEECH

MRS. NATIONS BRUTAL SPEECH.
Mrs. Nation has done many fool
ish things in New York, but the
greatest mistake she made was to
attack President Mckinley in one Of
her lectures at Coney Island says
the Topeka Journal. According to
the New York papers this is what
she said:
"Bill Mckinley deserves to die.
He is the friend of the brewer and
the drinking man. I have no care
for him. He deserves just what he
got"
The same authority then gives
the following account of what hap
pened:
"She had hardly uttered this SEN
timent than she was greeted with
jeers and Misses. Many of the au-
dieuce arose 10 protest. Indignant
com ments were heard all over the
auditorium. Several of the audi.
ence advanced to the platform with
menacing gestures. The thousand
people who were present were unau-
imous in their expression of con-
tempt. Mrs. Nations manager, see.
ing the situation. tried to induce
woman to leave the stage.
Julius Harflarr, of Newark, N. J,
proposed three cheers for the pres
ident and the assemblage gave
them with a will. Mrs.. Nation be.
came furious.
"You hell houndsv she cried.
You snakes, you can jeer and boot
az you likev
"Her manager at this time in
sisted that Mrs. Nation beat re.
treat. He got her away from Coney
Island without any further scene.
Mrs. Nation had announced that
she had made her last appearance
In Coney Island. She had forgot.
ten that she must appear this morn
ing TO answer a charge of mali
cious naiechief."
Mfs. Nation has a wonderful fac
ulty foe creating disturbance, but
she will probably remember this
experience above all others. 1t 10
extremely i'll advised and brutal for
q person to speak harshly Of any
one whose life 10 trembling in the
baisnee. The deep sympathy 10

who who has been elevated to the
highest place in the nation, and
who has been faithful to every
trust. And 1t IL surprising that
Mrs. Nation escaped with 90 little
trouble after her inhuman TRADE
against the suffering president.
