NEGROES DINE At SENATOR
ELECT SHOOTS BANQUET
Mormon Leader Points to President as
His Model.

SALT LAKE. Utah. Feb. 13.-Much
comment and criticism has been aroused
in Utah over the action Of Senator
elect Reed Smoot in seating some
negroes at a banquet with white people
and having white girls serve them.
Friends OF Smoot defend his course,
and he himself is quoted as saying:
IF President Roosevelt isn't too good
TO entertain a negro man at the White
House ! don't see why l should not
have negro people as my guests"
The occasion was the banquet given
last night by Apostle and Mrs. Smoot
to the members Of the Legislature and
other State officers. Invitations were
given to the officers Of both houses
of the Legislature.
One OF the doorkeepers OF the lower
house IS a negro, and he brought his
wife and two friends with their wives
One Of these men is editor OF weekly
paper for negroes. and the third is en-
ployed as a porter
They went to the banquet and seated
themselves beside some white people.
Some of the guests arose and went TO
another table. Several OF the walters
refused to wait on the negroes.

ONLY A SUGGESTION.
But It Has Proven of Interest and
Value to Thousands.

Common sense would suggest that If
one wishes 10 become neshy and plump
IL can only result from the food we eat
and digest and that food should be al
luminous or flesh forming food. like
eggs. bcefsteak. and cereals; in other
words the kinds Of food that make flesh
are the foods which form the greater
part of our daily bills of fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much. the
stomach, from abuse and overwork, does
not properly digest and assimilate IT,
which is the reason so many people re-
main thin and under weight. the IL
gestive organs do not completely digest
the fesh-forming beefsteak and eggs
and similar wholesome food.
There are thousands OF such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics, although
they may have no particular pain or
Inconvenience from their stOmachs.

dices aside and make a regular practice

LORD DUDLEY PROMISES
IRISH LAND REFORM
Prepares the Way for Wynd-
hams Purchase Bill.
HIS SPEECH OPTIMISTIC
Nationalist Member of Parliament
Duffy, of South Galway, Re
leased From Prison

DUBLIN. Feb. 13.-The Earl OF Dudley.
lord lieutenant OF Ireland. has sounded
the keynote Of land reform and paved
the way for the land purchase bill that
George Wyndham. the Irish chief secre-
tary. will introduce in the session OF
Parliament that opens on Tuesday.
Speaking last night ~ the annual din
ner OF the Royal College OF Surgeons. his
exceIlency made very optimistic ad-
dress. in which he declared that the
prospects for the future OF Ireland were
very encouraging Agitation had been
largely abandoned, and he hoped earnest
~ that those who were responsible for
the government Of ireland would never
again be compelled to enforce the excep-
tional treatment which they had been
obliged to impose early in 1902 Never
in his life had he signed anything more
gladly than last weeks proclamation.
Land Conference Lauded.
Lord Dudley's references TO the con-
tinued absence Of crime in Ireland was
directed TO the Englishmen who read the
political news in the London newspapers
rather than to his audience The latter
knew that serious crime had almost dis
appeared from ireland. and when Lord
Dudley alluded 10 the fact II was to pre-
pare England for measure OF justice to
her sister country.
Having done this. he adroitly referred
to the land question. and in this connec
tion said that the country had shown a
genuine desire for a just. final and am

would prove an epoch in Irish history.
the handspring thereof being federation.
moderation, and cooperation, and with
these principles there was nothing Ire
land could not accomplish.
Spirit of Cancellation.
The fact that Lord Dudley so Iauded
the work OF the recent conference OF
landlords and tenants is clearly meant
TO convey the impression that the new
land bill will be based largely. IL not
entirely. upon the report issued by the
conference. This report the majority OF
the landlords and Of the tenants has ap-
proved OF. so that Mr.. Wyndham can
with truth assure the house Of com
mons that there is almost total unanim-
ity between the two classes
Meanwhile. and probably as an earn
est OF his sincerity the lord lieutenant
issued an order today for the release OF
William Duffy. Nationalist member OF
parliament for South Galway. and three
others who were imprisoned under the
coercion act. They NSe-c accordingly re-
leased today.
