1t is well known that terrible rheumatism,

the other diseases that afllict humanity. The
great medicinal virtues of Paine's Celery Com

for the cure of all forms Of rheumatism and

has banished these terribly fatal troubles when
all other treatment has failed. Mrs. Mar

years of agonizing tortures had desire to end

guage.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-'I am no advo-
cate of lynching or of lynch law, but
| would rather see community
wrought up to the highest pitch over
crimes that would seem impossible
this side of hell, than to remain apa-
thetic." was the declaration Of Rev.
DR.. Bartlett, at the First Congrega
tional church today, in prelude on
"Lynching From Another Point OF
View" DR.. Bartlett said among other
things:
Il have seen so many sermons,
editorials and resolutions denounclng
lynching and mob law that one gets
the impression that the citizens who
hang or burn the destroyer OF life,
home and all that is held sacred By
wOmanhood. are the race offenders
rather than the monsters whom they
destroy.
Eve seem to be so absorbed with
the majesty of this vague term law,
that the notion appears to prevail
that the real criminals are those who
do not wait for legal processes, and
the yiOlntOr Of wOmanhOOd is the
abused party.
Eve shudder at the torture OF the
criminal who is burned, but appar-
emily forget to shudder for the innO-
cent girl, whose mental and spiritual
agony is tenfOld greater than that OF
the fire This is not q race problem,
except so far as one race are the OF
Tenders. The white man who com
mits the same crime is Just as guilty.
"The indignant uprising OF Il com
munity, and some Of the best men III
it, to avenge Il wrong OF such awful
magnitude may be technically law
less, but the spirit which causes the
| uprising is the reflection OF higher
civilization. There are crimes so
dreadful that thepur and chivalrOus
and the strong find it we'll nigh im-
| possible to endure the thought that
such q degenerate should pollute the
| earth with his presence. 1t is easy
to theorize about the anarchy OF mob
| law, but the same hand which penned
the calm editorial might be the first
to grasp the torch ii it were a mother,
wife or daughter who WAS a vic
| tim.
Il say that when you look at a
| lynching from another viewpoint, it
is simply the bursting forth of an i'll
dignation and loathing that will not
be checked I'm the Old Testament
days they made short work OF such
an offender.
Iynching is certainly Il bad
method and forms the habit OF dis
order and makes men blOodthirsty
But If it is to lie avoided there GER

speedy trial of these wretches, who
often brazenly deny crime amid thu
red tape of legal processes and con

One of Many.

New York sun.
a century and quarter ago, 125
years, has not been time enough for
the American public to appreciate
Valley Forge to the extent of estab-
fishing a fitting memorial OF Wash
ington's long winter there during
the Revolution. The 125th anniver-
sary of that deadly trial was cele-
brated on Thursday, and now it is
announced that the project of max
ing the site of Washington's camp
into a public park is sufficiently de-
velOped to promise that it is to be
accomplished.
The traditions about no spot in
the United States are more worthy
of preservation than those that dis
tinguish Valley Forge. At the same
time, the country should be explored
for places where monuments to it's
birth and the bloody services which
attended it should be, but are not.
There cannot be too many remind
ers of Washington and the men of
his time.

THE WRITER'S.

Mrs. Ruth McEnery Stuart is one Of
the few authors who have been dis
tinctly successful with readings from
their own stories.
Booth Harrington draws his stories
before he writes them. He not only
maps out the scenes, but makes COM
plcte picture of each one of them.
The real name of Henry Seton Mer-
riman, author of The Nultures," is
Hugh Stowell Scott. Mr.. Scott keeps
his personality we'll from the eyes of
the public, and very little is known of
his private life.
Maxim Cork is great lover of
birds. He keeps several kinds in his
room all the time, gives them food and
water with his own hands and allows
them TO leave the cage daily for a
flight in the room.

FORTUNES REPORT.
The New York Negro Has Brilliant
Scheme for Settling the Race Prob
Iem-W ouId Make Booker Washing
to- Governor of Philippine Islands.

Charlotte Observer
T. Thomas Fortune, the turbulent
New York negro politician and edi-
tor, who was appointed by President
Roosevelt some months or q year
ago, as special commissioner to Ha-
wall and the Philippines to investi-
gate general matters and especially
race Industrial conditions, has re-
turned with what the New York
Commercial describes as "a whole
barrel of information and theories
ard suggestions We will let the
paper Just mentioned speak:
Hawaii, he said last Thursday
night at a complimentary dinner
rendered him by the Fellowship Club,
is no good. It's fit only for rich
men to dream ii-an ideal group of
islands with a matchless climate,
dominated by the millionaire sons
and daughters OF two or three gener-
ations back. SO let US dismiss
Hawaii forthwith. It's not worth
talking about.
But the Philippines-ah, there's
the country for you. It's just the
opposite of Hawaii" says Fortune.
"The Fillipinos are d proud, indepen-
dent race, have the right stuff in
them. If you step on a Filipino's
corn their champion tells US, 'he
will step on yours. If you pop him
in the jaw he will pop you in the jaw.
That's how he's earned the respect
OF the whites \ very simple rule it
would appear-merely a matter Of
being handy with your feet and your
fists, SO as to get in good retalatory
work on jaw and corn! And Fortune
wishes that our American negroes
had long ago won white respect
by this corn-and-jaw recipe
Thus equipped" he goes Oh, ''the
Filipino and the negro get along
splendidly in a social way" SO he
leaps forward this conclusion as a
happy solution of the race problem
here in the Uuited States:
Let the American people appoint
some such able Afro-American as
Booker Washington to be Governor
OF the Philippine Islands, with sym
pathetic felloW-commissioners, and |
believe that, while such appointees
would give general satisfaction to
the FilipinOs, a very large num-
Der of Afrc-American people would
desire to live under the American
flag in. the Philippine Islands with
the firm hope and belief that at some
future time the constitution would
