WHAT MR. GRAVES THINKS.

THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.

The Distinguished Southern Orator Who Is to Be Here Next Month Ois-. cusses the Roosevelt-Wash-ington Incident.

John Temple Graves, the brilliant southern orator who is to lecture in Crawfordsville on November 11, thus expresses himself, in the Indianapolis Sentinel concerning the recent Roose-velt-Washington dinner: "There have been radical expressions in the south among some papers concerning the propriety of the dianer, but the bulk of southern expression has been remarkably conservative. Wo have no fear of social equality in tho south because we are amply able to taKe care of that issue, but the conservative southern people regret the President's impulsive action because it destroys in some measure the influence and usefulness of Booker T. Washington, who has always stood in the south as tho opponent of any aggresive policy that would produce friction between the races, and who by this act becomes an illustration of social equality which is likely to produce unfortunate aggression and friction on the part of his people. "The President's act is regretted because it reopens an issue which was seemingly in repose, and which, by the projection of the old question of the negro into the feelings of the people of the north and south, disturbs harmony.

Up to the period of this incident Mr. Roosevelt had captured the enthusiastic admiration and regard of southern people, and it is to be hoped that the steady continuation of his civil service ideas in southern appointments may do much to redeem the good opinion of which the Washington dinner deprived him. "To you people in the north, with your small negro population, it may appear insignificant to have invited so eminent a negro as Washington to dinner. But in the south, where we have 7,500,000 negroes, it is dangerous to have an example of social equality from the white house. You, too, will understand in that approaching- and inevitable day, when the rapid increase of your own negro population shall bring the racial problem home to the door of your own civilization, for the negro problem is surely and rapidly approaching in Indiana, Illinois and Ohio.

In these three states the negro now holds almost practically the balance of power."

the death or injury of persons to whom such liquor is sold. The story of the killing of "Boze" Ellis was gone over and it was slated that the evidence would show that Annable sold the liquor to ,hm Osborne, who afterwards killed Ellis with a beer faucet. The names of Prank Osborne, Howard Jeffries, Ed Reynolds, Jim Friar. Bill Hardache, Pete VantLeven, et al., wore mentioned and they will all appear as witnesses. The regular petit jury wili try the case, both sides hav ing accepted it. The trial will last several days and will attract no little attention.

Howard Jeffries was put on tho stand Tuesday and gave his version of the killiug of "Boze" Ellis and said that Charley Annable sold the party liquor Sunday morning at li o'clock, as he remembered that Annable tried to work the short change racket on them. When the defendant's attorneys took Howard, who had been industriously chewing gum through his testimony he was asked if he could pet along witnout. the gum. He said that he could and threw it away. He is a star witness and is a very bright boy, hard to rattle. The beer faucet, which has been exhibited for some time in a local store window, was again submitted in the evidence and identified.

Home Again.

After an absence of two years and eight months in the Philippines, Lieutenant Charles U. Herron has re turned to Crawfordsville for a visit with his parents, Captain and Mrs. W. P. Herron. He received a thirty day leave of absence and surprised even the members of his family by arriving in town last Monday afternoon at four o'clock, Unless important duties call

LIEUT. CHARLES D. HERRON.

him back to Fort Russell, Utah, where he is now located, he will likely re ceive an extension of thirty days and be here sixty days in all.

Lieutentant Herron is looking and feeling well and expresses himself well satisfied with army life. It is al together likely that he will continue in the service for an indefinite period. He expects to be sent back to the Philip pines within the next two or three years, for it is the opinion in army circles that civil government there without military backing will not be possible for many years. Everett Cole is the only Crawfordsville boy in Lieut. Herron's command. His three years will expire in the spring when he expects to give up military life and return home.

Lieutenant Herron is now battalion adjutant at Fort Russell, drawing a captain's pay.

Favors a State Park.

Prof. W. H. Freeman, of the state board of forestry, was at the Shades Tuesday with Dr. Moore, the president of the company, where they inspected the timber on the grounds. Several of the larger and finer trees are dying and to advise as to their preservation was one of the causes of Prof. Freeman's visit. He is greatly taken with Garland Dells as a site for a state park and sanitarium, and upon his re turn to Indianapolis he will embody in his report a recommendation that the state purchase the tract and use it for such a purpose. Such a plan is not en tirely unfeasable, especially if the proposed interurban railroad ever becomes a reality, and there is no disputing the fact that the springs at the Shades possess mineral and curative properties that are not excelled by those at Attica or West Baden, and as to its desirabil ity as a state park site, there is little question but that it is the most p:c turesque and primeval place now left in Indiana.

BIG DAMAGES ASKED.

Jacob H. Fisher, Marshal of Linden, Wants Seven Thousand Dollars From Lllburn Allen.

Last Tuesday in the Montgomery circuit court through his attorneys. Reeves & Jones, Jacob H. Fisher, marshal of the town of Linden, filed a damage suit against Lilburn Allen, of the same place, asking the sum of $7,000. The complaint recites that on Oct. 8, 1901, in Linden the plaintiff was assaulted by the defendant Allen and made a deep, dangerous and painful stab and cut three inches long in the plaintiff's left shoulder, permanently disabling his left arm and shoulder, •for which the plaintiff asks $3,000

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

How s'.iall a mother who is weak arui sick with some female trouble bear healthy children J!ow anxious women ought to be to give their children tho blessing of a good constitution

Many women lon^ for a child to bless their home, but beeau.se of some debility or displacement of the female organs, they are barren. Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by JLytlia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound more successfully than by any other medicine, because it gives tone and strength to the parts, curing all displacements and inflammation.

Actual sterility in women is very rare. If any 'woman thinks she is sterile, let her write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., whoso advice is ivon l'ree to all expectant or would-be mothers.

The Story of Mrs. De Bett and Her Baby Girl. DEAI? Mns. PINKIIAM Before I took your mcdicinc I suffered for yeara. Life to me was a torture. I often wished I were dead. I had no children, and the doctor said I never could have. Menstruation was very painful, also Buffered with severe pains in left ovary, had pains in my back and heart, terrible headaches, and weakness of the kidneys. I tried everything, had -rromb dilated twice but that did no good. I got discouraged and concluded to let the doctors go and try your medicine. After writing to you explaining my case, I followed your advice carefully and with the result that I never felt so well in all my life. 1 am indeed a new woman and have a loving little babv girl which is the happiness of mv home. 1 feel that I owe my life to liyaia E. Pinkham's Medicine, and feel very proud to recommend it to others. J. hope that many others will follow iny example and that homes may be brightened as mine has." Mns. LUCY DK BETT, 80£ S. Ilalstfcad St., Chicago, 111. (March 1, 1901.)

DEAR MRS. PINKHAH I must write and tell you what your Vegetable Compound has done for me. Before taking your medicinc 1 was enable to carry a babe to maturity, having lost two one at six months and one at seven. The doctor said next time I would die, but thanks to Lydia E. Pinkham's "Vegetable Compound, I did not die, but am the proud mother of a six months old girl baby. She weighs nineteen pounds and has never seen a sick day in her life. Belmont, Ohio.

Allen also stabbed Fisher in the left forearm, reaching through the tlesh to the bone, for which damages In the sum of $1,000 are asked. Fisher was also stabbed in the left hand for which he asks $1,000, and In the leg leg above the knee, for which $f00 Is asked, in addition to these wounds the plaintiff alleges that he lost great quantities of blood and was caused to undergo great pain and bodily suffering for which he asks $2,000 more. Then he had $25 worth of clothing ruined in the melee, and had to pay a big doctor bill with others in sight, in addition to being prevented from transacting his usual business affairs, for whioh 1500 would be no more than right, making a total of $7,000. Allen is a tough character, and has the reputation of being a bad man, and while attempting to run things In Linden, and the new marshal, struck a snag. He was badly beaten up by Fisher before he was landed in jail.

Jake Jackson Fined.

The case of Jake Jackson, of Wave, land, charged with Intoxication, who had

hi9

case venued to this city from

Waveland, came up last Tuesday in Squire Stllwell's court. The original affidavit was quashed and a new one filed, to which Jake pleaded guilty and after being assessed $8.56 fine and costs, he went on his way rejoicing.

OH, UNCLE JOHN!

A Bald Old Maslier Run to Enrlh For: Ogling Pretty Girls and Made to Pay For His Sport.

Last Tuesday in tho Mavor's court' John Boyer was fined and costoa $10.3~ for annoying a number of youn? ladies who work in offices close to tho -treets. It appears that John, who is about sixty years old, and a slovenly old brute, Imagines that he Is a charmer and has been very busy for some weeks making goo-goo eyes at a number of young ladies who are employed in the offices in the business part of town. Hia favorite pastime is to get a cigar stuck in his face and then assuming a graceful and nonchalant attitude close to the oflice of his victim, prepare to lay siege to the heart of the fair one with sunny Bmlles that would turn the stomach of a stone image. His attentions have become so annoying that the officers to whom the case was reported had to take cognizance of it and arrest the old man and give him a taste of the red-eyed law. Boyer gets a pension of $24 per month and will be al lowed to contribute to the school fund. Recently he went Into an office where a young lady stenographer is employed and finding her alone threw down & dollar on her desk and told her to go to the circus and that he would meet her after the show. The young lady was greatly frightened and threw the money out Into the street. One young lady has laid in a package of red pepper and the next time Johnny comes around smiling he will get a dose that will make him dance the Spanish fandago In three different languages.
