BOOKER WASHINGTON
 SAYS DISCRIMINATE
NEGRO RACE SHOULD NOT BE CONDEMNED BECAUSE IT HAS A FEW WORTHLESS MEMBERS. MOST WHITES WILL BE JUST.

Frankfort, Ky, October 15.-Booker T.. took part today in exercises commemorate ing the twentieth anniversary of the Ken lucky Normal and Industrial School for colored persons, making three speeches during the day to about 2000 of his race gathered from over tine state. Many white people gathered at one of the speaking apartments in the afternoon.
 Washington devoted his remarks main ly to the education of the negro in the southland, urging upon them that they be industrious. In the course of his re- marks he said:
 T hope that more and more the white people in America will learn to diserim- mate between negroes It should con stantly be borne in mind that there are two classes among us. The whole race should not be condemned for few worthless ones. How often do we hear that the negro will not work, is immoral. and cannot be depended upon. Such re- marks are unjust and usually mean that there is an element in the race that will not work. is immoral and cannot be de- pended upon Every community in the south has a number of negroes who are reliable, moral, industrious and speaking of them, the worthless element of the race should not be included. When white people differentiate, it encourages worthy ones who become more worthy. I am most anxious in this season of difficulty and trial that our people do not become dis couraged. | want our people to know there is large element of the white race in the south that are interested in our progress, and mean to see that justice Is meted out to our people.

SUPREME COURT
 AGAINST BURTON Former Kansas Senator Must
 Go to Jail NOTHING MORE TO BE DONE When Asked for Comment on the Decision He Says This Is
 Not My Time to
 Talk"
NOTHING MORE TO BE DONE

Washington October 15.-The supreme court of the United States today denied the petition of former United States sen- ator Burton of Kansas for rehearing in the case in which he is under sentence of Imprisonment and fine on the charge of accepting an attorneys fee in a case in which the government was interested while he was serving as senator. The effect of the decision will be the immedi- ate imprisonment of Burton unless his attorneys devise some other means of postponing the execution of the sentence.
 There was no formal announcement of the decision in the Burton case in open court the chief justice merely handing a brief memorandum to the clerk of the court just before converting.
 The ease of Senator Burton has been before the court since 1903. when he was indicted In St. Louis on the charge of ac- cepting fee for representing the Rialto Grain company of that city in an effort to dcbar it from the use of the United States mail. He was found guilty and sentenced to serve six months in jail and pay a fine of $25O0, On appeal to the su- preme court the decision was reversed on q technicality, and a second trial was or dered. The second verdict was identical with the first and 1t was affirmed by the supreme court. This affirmation was an nouneed just before the close of the term of court in May last The motion for re- hearing was then filed.
 It was claimed in Burtons behalf that the court had not had the real facts be- fore it in considering the case.

COUNT B0NI WILL
 INSIST ON RIGHTS
OFFER OF EVERY LIBERAL" AL ADVANCE IS SPURNED, AND HE INSISTS ON PAYMENTS OF ALL OLD DEBTS.

Paris, October 15.-On tho eve of the trial, October IT, of the suit for divorce brought by the Countess de Castelane against her husband. Count Boni de Cas- tellane, the count has refused the offer of the countess to settle 8 fixed amount on him. The amount is described as being very liberal" in accord with the coun- tess conduct throughout the action. The count, however, insists on the liquidation of his old debts, to which 1t is said the countess family would never agree
 In view of the failure to settle this point, it is practically certain that the count on Wednesday will seek delay. but the countess counsel who are ready for trial are confident that he will not se- cure postponement for longer than a fort night. If the case is postponed. they will endeavor to secure q similar postpone ment Of the creditors case on October 24 which the count wants to have decided first. When the issue finally comes to trial the countess lawyers expect to get decree upon the documentary evidence which will be submitted. and thus avoid an appearance in court, but if the court is not satisfied the French procedure is to order an inquiry to which witnesses will be summoned.

NEW YORK CENTRAL MUST
 ANSWER RELATING CHARGE

At the opening of the trial an objection
 on the part of the defense to the trial of
 Messrs. Guilford and Pomeroy in con1une-
 ton with the New York Central railroad l was made. It was contended by Mir Lind say that it would prejudice his clients interests individually The court ruled
 against the contention, but on the testi- mony of physician that Mir. Guilford was l i'll, and could not under any conditions i be present in court, Judge Holt ordered i that the trial proceed against all the de- | fendants except Mir. Guilfird.
 As the talesmen for jury trial were called they were questioned to whether they owned stock or were in any way personally interested in the corporation l trial. Several men who answered in the affirmative were excused.
 After several jurors had been accepted, an attorney for the defendants questioned
 talesman as to whether he had read anything about the case in the newspa- pers. Judge Holt said he thought the question not necessary. as he did not be- lieve anything published in the papers
 would bias a juror.
 T don't know replied the- attorney,
 there is one journal which has printed violent articles, and claimed for its editor the credit of bringing about the prosecu-
 tion. l think this may bias a juror" He asked the first juror if he had read any articles in the New York American
 attacking the defendant on account of
 granting the alleged rebates Both he
 and the other members of the jury re-
 piled that they had, but that it had made
 no impression on them. When the panel was completed the jury was excused until tomorrow to permit the attorneys to argue
 several important legal points which must
 be disposed of before the taking of testi- mony begins.

had upon the business of the big show
 If anything it helped the patronage was the reply "The necessity for elim- mating the parade because of the magni- tude of the show was generally recog- nized, and the public was anxious to see a show that was actually too big to give a processioh. Before the advent of the show in some of the western cities there were some unfavorable comments regard ing the mo parade feature, even in the press; but after the public and the news paper men saw the performance, noticed the increased vim and ginger that was installed into it because the performers and animals were not overworked, and the greater enjoyment of the people be- cause they had not been worn out by a long period of tiresome waiting, there was but one verdict, and that was that the elimination of the parade was d success from every standpoint"
 The Barnum x Bailey circus is the only one that has had the courage to cut out the parade. Another well known show man, when asked if his show would fol- low suit, replied: 'I would like to, but l can't. The Barnum X Bailey circus is the only one that is big enough to do it." And it is evident that it has intro duced this innovation in the circus world because the show gives popular satisfac- ton without the aid of what is al best a conventional display of so-called pa geantry.
 The absence of the parade is more than compensated for by this years big arenic acts and 'thrillers." There are num- Der of big sensations and the structural steel used in these startling acts alone utillzes the carrying capacity of several railroad cars. Incidentally, it is announced that splendid free show will be given on the exhibition grounds daily at il and o'clock, by Prince Youturkey, a remark able performer on an elevated wire-cable

WILLIAMS ANSWERS
 SHAW'S REGENT SPEECH
Says Taft Is the Wsest and Shaw the ShreWdest and Sharpest of
 Presidents Cabinet.

Greensboro, N C., October 15.-John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, minority leader in the lower house of Congress, spoke to an enthusiastic audience here today. The address was a reply to a speech made by Secretary of the Treas ury Leslie M. Shay at Salisbury few weeks ago. The speaker said Taft was the wisest and Shaw the shrewdest and sharpest of the present generation oe republicans
 The statement of Mir Bryan that he believes in the government ownership of railroads he said, lis MT. Bryans pri- vate opinion and will find no place in the democratic platform
 He made thrust at the republican members of Congress for voting against a bill to allow cement to be used in re- building San Francisco to be admitted duty free, and also for defeating the bill providing that purchases for the Panama canal should be made in foreign eoun- tries, when they could be bought at lower prices in the United States.

INTERESTING ELECTION
 CONTEST IN WILCOX

Selma, October 5.-(Specal) )-Today in Greensboro application was made to Cir cult Judge B. M. Miller that the name of Capt J. N. Stanford be put upon the ticket to be voted for in November as the democratic nominee for probate judge of Wilcox county.
 This procedure grows out of the recent democratic primary and it's result. Capt J. Fleet Foster and Captain Stanford were candidates in the recent primary election, the latter receiving the nomination by a majority of 43 votes. Captain Foster is the present probate judge, having been appointed by Governor Jelks to the vacancy caused by the death of Judge James T. Beck, which occurred on May 6 at 80 D. m. in a Selma sanitarium The election occurring November 6, a question arose whether the constitutional provision providing for an election if d vacancy occurred not less than six months of said election applied in this case.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-10-16

Governor Jelks, who appointed Judge Foster, and Attorney General Wilson held that Judge Foster was appointed for the unexpired term of Judge Beck, which is two years off. However Judge Foster signed an agreement during the primary that if he failed after nomination he would institute a contest, and even if it was decided that he had the right to hold until Judge Becks term expired he would resign in favor of the primary nom inee. Captain Stanford was nominated but Judge Foster contends that there is no vacancy, hence he cannot place the name of Captain Stanford on the ticket and that the only way the successful can didate of the late primary can become probate judge is after his (Foster's) resig- nation, and Captain Stanford's $ appoint ment by the governor. Judge Miller set the case for hearing in Camden on Frl- day next, at which time it will be decided whether or not the name of a candidate for probate judge will go on the ticket to be voted in November.

TOO BIG TO PARADE.
Rarnum 6 Bailey Continue Experi- ment of Eliminating Street Pageants.

A circus that is 'too big to give a street parade is a novelty even in these days of colossal enterprise and mammoth amusement institutions. But that is the announcement of the Barnum x Bailey circus, which exhibits in Birmingham Saturday, October 2.
 In speaking of the reasons for this striking innovation, a representative of the big show. said recently: "The Barnum X Bailey circus has become so large that q parade Is no longer possible or even desirable. If we could be absolutely sure of getting into town by daybreak, the parade would still be feasible, but with our five long trains of cars, this is too much to expect of the railroad companies. In many instances it is or 9 o'clock before the last section arrives and l0 O clock before 1t is unloaded and the para phernalia transferred to the show ground. This leaves just sufficient time to erect the big tents and prepare for the after noon performance. To take several hun dred men away from the show grounds at the most critical time in the morn ing, in order to give a parade, would mean delay in opening, and consequent discomfort to the public. To compel thou sands of people to stand out in front of the entrance, Tn the not sun or rdlnt De- cause the giving of the parade has de- layed the opening for an hour or more, is positively cruel; but there is frequently no help for it when parades are given.
 By eliminating the parade the public Is also saved q long and often uncom- fortabe wait on the streets pending the always more or less delayed procession, which at best has nothing new to offer, to say nothing of the interference with public traffic and the business of the city's merchants Many municipal govern ments have recognized the later facts by either refusing to give licenses for pa rades, or by making the tax so high as to be prohibitive. Street parades were all right when circuses were small, and were necessary from an advertising standpoint. The Barnum & Bailey show Is too we'll known to need advertising of this char acter. and instead of wasting time and energy on a conventional street display. every effort is concentrated upon the performance.
 The experiment of cutting out the pa- rade was tried In this country for the first time last season. and the circus man was asked what effect the innovation

Has Nothino to Say.

Abilene, Kan, October 15.-Joseph Ralph | Burton, former United States senator from Kansas, when seen at his home today by an Associated Press representative re- gardng the action of the United States supreme court in refusing him rehear- ing said:
 This is not my time to talk"
