Provisional Government liII r Maks No Change in Status
LADIES HOLD RECEPTION
Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Bacon Receive Many Prominent Guests Before Dc. parture-RooseVelt Respon-
 sble for Sending Bell.

Havana. October 1.-The provisional government will have nothing to do with the question of the sovereignty of the Isle of Pines, or with the separation of the government of the island from the rest of the Cuban republic. The executive authority of the United States already has decided that the Isle of Pines belongs to Cuba, and has embodied that affirma- ton in treaty concedng the sovereignty of the island to Cuba, and this treaty Is now pending ratification in the American Senate The entire matter being one of the adjudications of the state depart ment the provisional government. which is wholly under the war department. will not mix therein.
 The mode of government of the Isle of Pines as part of the Cuban republic may be altered or amended. but the desire of Americans in the Isle of Pines for. terri torial or municipal government as part of the United States cannot be conceded by any act on the part of the provisional government of Cuba or the war depart- ment
 May Have Separate Governor.
 
 on the Isle of Pines has not made repre- sentation on the matter. but the most likely action to be gained would be the placing of an American military officer on the island as governor in place of the present Cuban Mayor.
 The American residents of the isle have auopted unanimously resolution exon- erating Secretary Root and Gen. Leonard Wood from all blame in connection with the turning of the isle to Cuba, and they feel that this step ought to open the way to negotiations for making the isle Amer jean property They consider present con ditions opportune for securing asettie- ment Of the matter wnen they believe may hang fire indefinitely in the United States Senate. Governor Taft has decd- ed that the pay of the Cuban senators and congressman be stopped October 1, when the Palma administration ceased. He will decree the Congress to be in re- cess until the question of its status Is settled.
 Ladies Hold Reception.
 Mrs. Taft and Mrs. Bacon held re- ception this evening in the main saloon of the palace II was attended by many Cubans and American officers The band played Cuban airs in the park opposite the palace during the reception which was informal and enjoyable.

 Mir Kline addressed the court in an exhaustive argument to show that 1t was not violation of the Valentine act for owners of stock in one corporation to own stock in another of the same nature in another state. A man could not com pete with himself, To show violation of the Valentine law a combination of rivals must be shown for the restraint of trade.

Caution to Northern Negroes.

aTo the members of my race who reside in northern states let me utter the cauton that in your enthusiastic desire to be of service to your brethren in the south, you do not make their path more thorny and difficult by rash and incorporate utter ances. Bebore giving advice to the negro in the south, the negro in the north should be very sure that what he ad- vises is what he himself would be will ing to take into the heart of the south and put into practice. Be careful not to assist in lighting fire which you will have no ability to put out.
 Some may think that the problems with which we are grapplins will be bet ter solved by inducing millions of our people to leave the south for residence in fhe north, but l warn you tlslt instead of this being a solution, it will but add to tne complications of the problem.
 While eondemning the giving of promi- hence to the work of mobs in the south we should not fail to give due credit to those of the white race who stood man fully and courageously on the side of law and order during the receft trying or deals through which this section of our country has been passing. During the racial disturbances, the country very sell dorl hears ot the brave a 1d heroic acts Of d certain element of southern white people wncse deeds are seidom heralded through the press

Learn Lesson of seIf-controI.

Tn the season of disturbance and ex- citement if others yield to the temptation of losing control of their judgment and give way to passion and prejudice, let us as race teach the world that we have learned the great lesson of calmness and self-control; that we are determined to be governed by reason rather than by feel ing. Our victories in the past have come to us through our ability to be calm and patient, often while enduring great wrong. / Again l am most anxious and I know that in this I speak the sentiment of every conservative member of our race that our race everywhere bear the reputation of law-abiding and law-re- specting people. Ii others would break the law and trample it under foot, let us keep and respect it and teach our chii- dren to follow our example.
 "In this I repeat what I have urged on recent occasions, every iota of influence that we possess should be used to get rid of the criminal and loafing element of our people, and to make decent law-abid- ing citizens.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-10-12

At the afternoon session when the an nual reports of the New Jersey company had all been read, the annual report of the Union Tank Line company of New Jersey for 1905 was offered Mir Kline expressed the opinion to the court that to admit this report was about the most remote evidence that could be given. He wanted the court to remember that the Standard oil Company of Ohio was being tried criminally and was entitled to meet the witnesses against it face to face

At the vesper service at 4 O'Clock
today, at the Y. w. G. A., Miss Flor
ence Ben Oliel will give her talk OH
"Prophecy Fulfilling in the Holy
Land.' This will, doubtless, be the
most interesting of all her talks. While
adding much to a general knowledge of
the Bible, the definite recital of pres
ent fulfilling Of the prophecies will be
a great inspiration.
The class in millinery, meeting at 8
pm. tomorrow, is not yet full, and pu.
pills may still enter both for advanced
and beginning work. The cooking
classes just beginning are Wednesday
morning, housekeeper g course; Friday
morning, waiting and serving, and Fri
day afternoon, class for maids.
The annual open lesson of the gym
nasium department. will be given Tues
day evening at 8 o'clock, and all the
evening classes will take part. There
will be floor and apparatus work by
the advanced class, club swinging anc
dumb-bell drill by the intermediate anl
beginning classes. The program will
close with a basketball game, and re
freshments will be served.
The classes are under the direction
of Miss Ellen H. Douglass, whose work
for the past five years has demonstrated
her ability as physical director.

WOMEN WHO COMMAND
REGIMENTS

~ UROPEAN women are popularity
r. supposed to possess fewer rights
- than their American sisters; yet
one distinction enjoyed by them is little
known on this side Of the ocean. In
the Prussian army alone the command
ers Of fourteen regiments are women;
and, altho the position is purely formal,
yet these female colonies enjoy like mill
tary rank with the male holders Of the
title, and, on occasion, wear the uniform
Of their office. The distinction is not
confined to German women, altho re-
served for those thru whose veins flow
royal, or, at least, princely blood.
Those who have been thus honored
are as follows: The Grand Duchess of
Mecklenburg -Schwerin, the Grand Du-
chess Of Baden, the Empress Alexandra
of Russia, the Grown Princess of Greece,
the Empress Augusta Victoria of Ger
many, the Duchess Of Connaught, the
Queen Dowager of Holland, the Princess
of Sachsen- Meiningen, the Queen Dow.
ager Of Italy, the Princess of Schaum.
burg-Lippe, the Princess Frederick Karl
Of Hessen, the Princess Karl Of P rus
STA, Queen Wilhelmina Of Holland, and
the Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg. OF
these befrocked commanders eight be-
long to the infantry, three to the garde
de corps, and three to the cavalry.
