Salmon. MicrObe.

Since the researches Of the late Prof
Huxley the well-known salmon disease
has always been regarded as caused by
the attack Of fungus. Hume Patterson
has recently conducted a research for
the fishery board of Scotland and has
come to the conclusion that the disease
is due to invasion of the tisses OF the
fish by a special bacillus. which gains
access through some abrasion of ulcera-
ton of the skin. When the skin of the
fish is in a healthy state the disease is
evidently not contracted. The bacilli re-
main alive in the dead fish. which
therefore prove a source of infection

Dancing for Children.

Just few suggestions concerning the
clothes and shoes young Reginald and
little Miss Dorothy should wear at the
winter dancing class. It is never a
good idea to send a child to the class
so distractingly gowned that she can
not put and keep her mind on the In
structions of her teacher. A simple lit
tie frock not any more "frilly' than
any afternoon pique dress she might
wear. Is best. And for Reginald the
same notion is the most satisfactory
Do not insist on making him tog out
as brother VIII wo,Id when going to
his first big dinner. 1t seems almost a
shame to insist that children should
wear high buttoned or laced boots for
the dancing class. but il is by far the
most sensible. for until the ankles are
strong and not prone 10 any turning,
the high shoes. with, however. very
low heels. are the best.

NATIONAL SUFFRAGE LEAGUE
Continued from page L.

Thereupon Rev. Corruthers and his
faction boIted, formed another organ
ization with Corruthers as president,
and unanimously adopted the resolu-
ton.
The Roosevelt resolution was as fol-
lows:
Resolved, That we indorse the able
and upright administration of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and ask for his nomi-
nation for the presidency"
Another resolution was then adopt
ed unanimously by the remaining
thirty-eight delegates, who were under
the leadership on the floor of Calvin
Chase, of this city, and James H.
Hayes, of Virginia, previously nominat-
ed for president of the League, when it
was but partially formed.
The resolution adopted by this fac
ton, is as follows:
BE it resolved, That we appeal to
the President of the United States to
supplement his commendable acts in
the interest of justice and fair play for
our race by recommending to Congress
the passing of legislation for the en-
forcement of the thirteenth and f1f-
teenth amendments, thereby making
effective his stand for equal rights.
This world is looking at u.s." was
the oft-repeated cry of the prominent

leaders when they were trying to Sc

ROOSEVELT AND ANTIRoosEvELT FAC
TIONs.
There were Roosevelt men, anti
roosevelt men, anti-Washington-
Roosevelt men and anti-anybody men
at the convention. Until 1.3O o'clock
this morning the convention was an an
Traction assembly. The burning uues-
tion under discussion nearly the whole
time was: "Shal President Roosevelt
receive the votes of the Negroe popu-
dation at the next election. and his
present administration be indorsed ?"
The committee in whose hands were
the much ?moOted resolutions was to
have reported at . o'clock, but at that
tnme it had reached no decision.
At the evening meeting the fight was
renewed. S. G. Coleman. of Pennsyl-
vania made a passionate appeal for
Roosevelt. He was interrupted repeat
edly, but his strong ministerial voice
pulled him through, and he was able to
complete his speech. Corruthers
sprang to the platform at its conclu-
sion and called for three cheers for
Roosevelt. Some one tried at the same
time TO introduce a measure of in
dorsement, but President Nelson ruled
the mover off the floor.
The colored American., 1903-12-19
THE coLoRED AMERICAN.

Still no committee. Rev. P. O'Con-
nell of Delaware, excited the delegates
to TRADE against Hampton and Tus-
kegee.
l would not sell my manhood for
all Hampton and Tuskegee." he shout
ed. He made good impression at the
beginning Of his speech but lost it by
his unfortunate reference to Hampton
and Tuskegee.
ADDRESS TO THE PUBLIC.
At length the committee sent in an
address to the public, which was read
by DR.. Walters. It declared different
methods must be used in different sec
tions to secure the salvation of the race
The colored American., 1903-12-19

and that the Negro could not be elimi-
mated politically. Party preservation
must be changed to race preservation. -
it declared. Lynching was denounced
as a cancer that might spread over the
entire body. The penal institutions of
the South were also denounced, and the
distribution of the race in all the
states advised. 1t was recommended
that the Secretary of the Interior ap-
portion the school funds of the South.
A second executive session was en-
tered into at 1880 o'clock Tuesday
prevailed for hours, and all the lead
ers tried vainly to out-shout one an
other. 1t was at this juncture that the
cry of fire was started by woman
in the basement Although the excite
ment spread to the convention, the dis
cussion did not stop for an instant.
1t was incorporated in the resolu-
tions that the League should hold
convention in Chicago just before the
holding of the Republican National
convention, WHICH Iu0oIS III anu
should request the latter convention to
adopt a plank to uphold the fifteenth
amendment.
PERIOD OF HEATED DISCUSSION.
The hottest debate on the Roosevelt
measure came just before and after the
hour of midnight. 1t ragged furiously
until 1.3O o'clock, when vote was fl
naIly taken, the result being as stated.
At one time there were said to 125 del
egates voting but this number dwindl-
ed considerably as the night wore on r
At times the delegates Kissed and
ieered one another, and tried to pre-
vent action by drowning all words by
shouting. The terms ''boodiers, - ''pol-
iticaI snivelings" and towards" were
hurled at the supporters of the indorse-
ment, while the Roosevelt men replied
with epithets accusing the other side
of insincerity.
/ The report of the committee on reso-
/ Iutions was indefinite as to the Roose-
velt measure. 1t was said that the
vote in committee had stood to 9,
with Chairman Hayes refusing to cast
the deciding vote, desiring the Con
vention to decide the question.
The colored American., 1903-12-19
DR.. LEE SCORES REPUBLICANS.

w. Lee, made a witty and humorous
speech. He declared that the Republi-
can party had not redeemed the prom
ises 1t had made the Negro, but that
IN granting every concession it had
been with an eye single to the advan-
tage of the party and not for the bene-
ut OF the Negro race. The party was
now standing dumb. he said. while in
the South the race was deprived of the
privilege of the suffrage, forced to ride
in Jim Grow" cars and in other ways
denied the privileges of American citi-
zens.
L remember" he said, "a compari-
son that used ID be made by Frederick
Douglass, to the general effect that to
the Negro the Republican party was
like ship at sea, with the water every
where about and no land in sight And
that may be right; I guess it is. But
say to you now that the ships afire,
and it has become a matter for quick
decision with the passengers as to
whether they will stay on the ship and
die hot or jump overheard and die
cold.
"Tt reminds me of the old grand
mother sitting in the chimney corner,
with the members of her family for
three generations about her, who re-
marked to the youngest of her descend
ants that she was the root of 'em ALL
The child looked up at her and said:
Grandma, don't you reckon the branch
es would grow better if the root was in
the ground?' Now they do say the Re-
publican party is the political party of
the Negro race"
The evening session was consumed
in the making of addresses. Notable
among these were the speeches made
by DR.. S. P. Hood, of Pennsylvania,
and James H. Hayes of Virginia. The
latter is in way the father and in
spiration of the present Negro suffrage
movement, and his speech that eve
ming swept his hearers off their feet,
and assured him, beyond question, cleo
tion to the first presidency of the
League
Hayes declared for policy of using
the Negro vote n Congressional dis
tricts in the North in which it weld
ed the balance o. power as means
of enforcing recognition of the rights
of the race.
REPUBLICAN PARTY SELFISH.
He declared that everything that
the Republican party had given the
Negro-even his freedom and the suf-
frage had been for selfish reasons. He
urged that the organization of the
League be made national in its scope
and that candidates for Congress, who
failed to give entire allegiance to the
Dick resolution, which was designed to
institute legislation for the enforce
ment of the fifteenth amendment,
should receive rebuke from the black
vote at the polls.

"Ay, my dear, do"

Ay, my dear, do.
Her ladyship was the more disposed to
make the concession in that her husband
had met her wishes about taking a house
in London in the kindest manner. That
he did not like the idea was evident, but
so far from combating the proposal, he
had given in to it at once and agreed that
his mother should take a house and make
all necessary preparations. He would not
give any promise about going up much
himself, but if June came down every
week he and the boy would manage to get
along for the rest of the time.
Lady Nevil wrote an affectionate note
to Mrs Bryan asking them all to dine the
following evening. She thought it not
improbable that her cousins would refuse
to come. But both had reasons for not
wishing the estrangement from the Hall
to be prolonged, and were, besides, anx-
ious that their parents should be kept in
ignorance of the unpleasantness which
had occurred. This, however, contribut-
ed to make the evening a thoroughly I'M
pleasant one for their host and hostess.
Madge met Tom in the most supercilious
manner, scarcely deigning to give him her
finger tips. and behaved afterward as
though he did not exist; neither speaking
nor looking his way all the evening, but
devoting herself to June. Agnes, on the
contrary, redoubled her attentions to Tom,
and hung on every word with a pertina-
cious affection which nearly maddenei
June. Frequently, too, Agnes would smile
at her with an expression of mingled
sweetness and triumph which her ladyship
understood only too well.
The weeks passed. Easter was at hand,
and June looked joyfully forward to hav-
ing visitors in the house, Dallas among
them. She felt his CHEEKY face and voice
would bring light and life to the Hall,
which certainly was not very lively just
at present. Madge came up sometimes,
but avoided Tom as much as possible, or,
when she met him, treated him with i'll
concealed hostility. Agnes came, too.
and invariably set every nerve III June's
body tingling with irritation.
