President Roosevelt Made a Vigorous
and Wholesome Address
THE GLORY OF TRUE MOTHERHOOD
In an Address Before a National Gathering
the President Emphasizes the
Prime Importance of a Wholesome j
Home Life to the Perpetuity of the
Nation arid the Happiness of the Individual.
Washington, Special.?An address by
President Roosevelt v.ns Jhe featm-o of
the evening session of the National
Congress of Mothers, now holding its
tri-ennia] t onvcntiou at the Metropolitan
M. E. church. There was an immense
attendance. The President was
formally introduced to the audience hy
Mrs. Frederick SchofT, of Philadelphia,
the president of the congress. He read
his spec h, but occasionally interjected
some extemporaneous remarks to emphasize
a point. The President spoke as
follows:
"In our modern industrial civilization
there are many and grave dangers to
counterbalance the splendors and the
triumphs, it is not a good thing to see
cities grow at disproportionate speed
relatively to the country; for the small
land owners, the men who own their
little homes, and therefore to a very
large extent the men who till farms,
the men of the soil, have hitherto made
the foundation of lasting national lifo
in every State; and if the foundation
becomes either too weak or too narrow,
the superstructure, no matter how attractive.
is in imminent danger of falling.
"But far move important than the
question of the occupation of our citizens
is the question of how their family
life is conducted. No matter what that
occupation may he. as long as there is a
real home and as long as those who
make up that home do their duty to one
another, to their neighbors and to the
State, it is of minor consequence
whether the man's trade is plied in the
country or the city, whether it calls for
the work of the hands or for the work
of the head.
"Hut tiic nation is in a bail way if
there is no real home, if the family
is not of the right kind; if the man is
not a pood husband and father, if he
is brutal or cowardly or selfish, if the
woman has lost her sense of duty, if
she is sunk in vapid self-indulgence or
has let her nature he twisted so that
she prefers a sterile pseudo-intellectuality
to that great and beautiful development
of character which comes only
to those whose lives know the fullness
of duty done, of effort made and selfsacrifice
undergone.
HOME LIFE ALL-IMPORTANT.
"In the last analysis the welfare of
the State depends absolutely upon
whether or not the average family, the
average man and woman and their children.
teprese.it the kind of citizenship
fit. for the foundation of a great
nation; and if we fail to appreciate
this we fail to appreciate the root morality
upon which all healthy civilization
is based.
"No piled-up wealth, no splendor of
material growth, no brilliance of artistic
development, will permanently avail,
any people unless its home life in
healthy, unless the average man possesses
honesty, courage, common sense,
and d.veney, unless he works hard and
is willing at need to fight hard; and
unless the average woman is a good
wife, a pood mother, able and willing
to perform the first and greatest duty
of womanhood, ablo and willing to
hear, and to bring up as they should
he brought up. healthy children, sound
in body, mind and character, and numerous
enough so that the race will
increase and not decrease.
DIVISION OF LAROR RV SEX.
"Thre are certain old truths which
will he true as long as the world endures.
and which no amount of progress
can alter. One of these is the
truth that the primary duty of the
husband is to be the home maker, the
bread-winner for his wife and children,
and that the primary duty of the woman
is to be the helpmeet, the housewife
.and mother. The woman snould
have ample educational advantages;
hut save in exceptional eases the man
must be. and she need not be. and generally
ought not to he trained for a lifelong
career ns the family bread-winner;
and. therefore, after a certain
point the training of the two must
normally be different because the duties
of the two are normally different. This
does not mean inequality of function
but it does mean that normally there
must be dissimilarity of function. On
the whole, I think the duty of the woman
the more important, the more
mill file nuirn linnnrililn r\t iV.'
two; < n the whole i respect the woman
who (' t s her duty even more than 1
resjKct the man who does his.
WOMAN'S WOllK TUB NOBLER.
"No ordinary work done hv a man
if either us hard or responsible as the
work of a woman who is bringing up n
family of small children; for upon liei
time and strength demands are mad-:
not only every hour of the day bill
often every hour of the night. She
may have to pet up night after nigh!
to take care of a sick child, and ve!
must by day continue to do all hei
household duties as well; and if flu
family means are scant she must usually
enjoy even her rare holidays takins
her whole brood of children with her
The birth pangs make all men the
debtors of all women. Above all our
sympathy and regard are due td the
struggling wives among those whom
Abraham Lincoln called the plain people,
and whom he so loved and trusted; ;
for the lives of these women aro often i
led on the lonely heights of.quiet, selfsacrificing
heroism.
' Just as the happiest and most honorable
and most useful task that can
be set any man is to earn enough for
the support of his wife and family, for
the bringing up and starting in life of
his children so the most important, tho
most honorable and desirable tark
which can be set any woman is to be a
good wise mother in a homo marked
by self respect ami mutual forbearance.
by willingness to perform duly,
and by refusal to sink into self-indulgence
or avoid that which entails ef- I
fort and self-sacrafic?. Of course thoro I
are exceptional men and exceptional
| women who can d?> and ought to do I
! much more than this, who can lead
anil ought to lead great careers of out|
side usefulness in addition to?not as
| substitutes for?their home work; hut
i I am not speaking of exceptions; I am
i speaking of the primary duties, I am
| speaking of the primary citizen, the ;
I average men and women who make |
ud the nation.
Rojestvensky Recalled.
Washington, Special.?There is high j
authority for the statement that the :
Russian Second Pacific squadron has
been recalled by the Russian govern- |
ment. While not regarded as a sure
sign of peace, the recall of Admiral '
Rojestvensky's squadron, in the opin- j
ion of European chancellors, is regardi
ed as a hopeful sign that peace is at
hand.
Treaty Likely to Fall.
Washington, Special.--The discussion
j of the Dominican treaty, in the legislative
session of the Senate Tuesday,
j resulted in the drawing of party lines.
| The Democrats who have been report *d
as likely to support the treaty will return
to the fold, it is said, and on both
sides of the chamber it is admitted
there is little prospect that the convention
will be ratified. The Republicans
have been depending on some Democratic
support and have counted ascertain
the votes of Senators McEnory
and Foster, of Louisiana, and Clarke,
j of Arkansas.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General, j
Washington. Special.?The President
sent to the Senate the nomination of
Peter V. DeGraw. as Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General. Mr. McGraw is
.. _ ^ . . I
a native or i\ew jersey, nur nas spent i
most of his life in Now York, Philadelphia
and Washington. He has had
groat experience in newspaper work, ;
in the telegraph business as manager
of large corporate interests, and recently,
as the eastern representative
of the publicity department of the
l.ousiana Purchase Exposition.

sons were burned to death in a tire ci
which destroyed the five-story house, Iv
1,005 Allen street, early Friday. More J1
than 40 were injured and only a few e;
of the sleeping inmates escaped tin- ?!<
hurt. Several of those who perished
were roasted to death in plain view
of thousands in the streets. Coroner ?ij
Goldenkrane declared after an inves- w
tigatiou that he had reason to believe a
the blaze was the work of an incen- li
CI
diary. He issued subpoenas for the fire t|
marshal, tenement house and building ti
inspector and health and police officials v
to appear before him at the inquest Jj
Thursday. .,
The firo started in the basement and
spread with frightful rapidity to the h
roof. The victims were caught in traps j1
of llames, the halls and exits being
rendered impassable in a few minutes r
after the blaze started. The building c
was one of the usual tenement and n
the disaster was the worst in the his- j
tory of the Mast Side. The district a
attorney's office has begun an investi- j
gation to place the blame for the great
toss of life. Chief Croker. of the fire
department, asserts that the police and j.(
the tenement house departments are t
to blauie for the violations of the fire 1 ..
escape law. The tenement house de- ! .
partment officials, however, say that
the blame is on the shoulders of the ^
fire commissioner. I ,
Of the nineteen dead, three bodies, ((
there of a boy and two girls remain j v
unidentified. '.
Crowded fire escapes in the rear of
the tenement house were largely re- ^
sponsible for so many deaths and in- J
juries among its population, which ap- v
proached 200 souls. ; J1
u no scenes were heartrending. The | 1
fire started in the basement, occupied j ''
by Isaac Davis, his wife and three s
children. When Davis reached his
home early this morning and went into ?
his store on the same floor he saw a | *
kerosene lamp in the rear explode. 1 "
He awoke his wife and both tried to | K
put out the fiaming lamp but without ''
success. A policeman who heard the 0
cry of alarm rushed to the scene ; v
and every effort was made to arouse '
the sleeping people. Meantime the '
flames had spread with startling rapid- '
ity and the occupants of the upper s
floors awoke to find themselves con- v
fronted by a wall of flames on nearly 11
every side. Panic-stricken people n
rushed to the fire escapes only to find a
them literred with rubbish. On some (l
of the escapes the ruhibsh was so f
closely packed that it became impos- r
sible to pass certain points and men. ' f1
women and children stood literally |(
roasting to death as the flames reared >>
through windows around them. One of 1'
the escapes was manned by Police
man John J. Down, who had run a J ?
plank across to the window of an ad- : F
joining building. He rescued nearly a ' 11
dozen persons, but finally fell 20 feet ''
to the paved yard and shattered his ,
shoulder. Dozens of people were taken tl
from the crowded fire escapes and up- |
per windows. Ry this time the building i o
was a furnace and the rescues were "
effected in many cases only through | '1
heroic efforts of the firemen. Lieu- v
tenant Ronner. son of the former chief, <
descended the now red hot fire escapes ! t
five times. Four times he brought e
uuwn a woman or n cniici in ins arms.
The fifth time lie was descending with tl
an unconscious woman but staggared s
and was barely saved from death, o
Once Bonner rescued a little girl from H
a window where she stood surrounded a
by flames. She pleaded with him to tl
leave her on the escape ami go in after C
her little brother whom she said had t:
fallen unconscious. Bonner jumped tl
into what looked like a furnace, found C
the hoy and saved him. n
Swarming With Hungry Russians.
General Kuroki's Headquarters in the
Field, via Fusan.?The country is v
swarming with hungry, disheartened ! c
Russians, who are surrendering squads j '1
to any passing pursuing Japanese they j .1

Total Dead 111.
Birmingham, Ala., Special.? With
^ the removal of the last four bodies
from the Virginia mine, the total
fatalities from the awful explosion of
February 20 Wns swelled to 111. The
recovery of the bodies has been a slow
and difficult task. The fund which was
raised for the relief of the widows and
orphans left 1*' the disaster feache.l
nearly $30,000, and this is being distributed
among them in the form of
semi-monthly allowance by a committee
of prominent ministers in the Birmingham
district,

was handed down in the Super- !

ference to Flood as a colored man
as an error which the one paper fell j
ito by reason of the other's lack of
lllgence. and both natters nromntlv
adogized when the mistake was
tiled to their attention. In the cumlaint
Mr. Flood alleges that the reforlre
to him as a tailored man damaged
is social and business position to the j
stent of $10,000 in eaoh case. The
efendants demurred on the ground
tat ninler the fourteenth and till "in th
liendments to the Federal constitution
> refer to a man as it negro is not
helous p? r se and that to refer to a
bite man as a negro when lie is not
negro is an apparent mistake which |
in do him no harm. The Supri me |
mitt reserves this position and ho'ds i
itat in spite of the Federal eonsiituion
it is libelous per se to refer to a j (
hit." man as a negro, inasmuch as tlm
tws of this Slate forbid social equality
y its jim crow car laws, its lawn
gainst miscegenation and otherwise, j
The decision in the newspaper case I
? written by chief Justice Pope ami
t is very exhaustive. Among the parllel
cases referred to is one in which
reporter referred to a whit* man as
"cultured gentleman," the "intelligent'
oinpositor "set it tip" "colored gentle- !
tan." and the proofreader changed it '
o "negro." The Supreme Court says: j
"The only question presented by this
ppeal is. Ms it libelous per se to pub- I
is'.t .a white man as a negro?' To J
all a white man a negro affects the I
ocial status of any white man so reerred
to." Authorities tire quoted on
his point and the court continues: j
When we stop to think of the racial
istinction subsisting between the
fhite man and the ldark man. it must
ie apparent that to impute the con- j
lition of a negro to a white man j
irould affect his, the white man's, so- j
ial status, and in case any one pubished
a white man to be a negro. It |
irould not only be galliig to his niide j
nit would tend to interfere seriously |
nth tho snrinl rotation nt vuhti-?? 1
nan with his follow white men; and
o protect the white man from such ,
ublioation it is necessary to bring 1
uch a charge to an issue quickly."
In Strauder vs. West Virginia, the
ourt held that these amendments,
welt'th, fourteenth and fifteenth, were
esigned to accord members of the nero
race the same protection in life,
iberty and property whl-h was already
njoyed by the white race, and no- j
irhero does the court in tliat state re- ]
er to the social relations of each race. ;
'he statute law of this State forbids
he association of the two races, in
uch a way it excludes the negro from
rhito society and vice versa, lt.v the
lisoegenntion statutes, tlie inter- j
tarrlage of the two races is forbidden
nd made a crime. Ilailroads are re- j
aired to furnish separate coaches for J
he two races. White children and
olored children are forbidden to at- !
end the same school. Various opiums
are quoted to show that publishug
a white man as a negro has been
eld to he libelous by various court:-.
The court then quotes the language
f the three amendments to the contitution
of the United States refined
> and argues that It must be appr.r- !
nt from consulting the texts that
here is not the slightest reference to
lie social condition of the two ra-"s. !
All take pleasure," it Is stated in ties
pinion, "in bowing to tlie authority
f the United States ;n regard to
Iipsp amendments, hut we would he
ery far from admitting that the soial
distinction subsisting oetween the
wo races has been in any wise affe.-itd."
In concluding the court holds*
"We. therefore, hold that these
liree amendments to the Federal ionlitution
have not destroyed the lav
f this State, which makes the pubcation
of a white man as a negro
nything but libel. The judgment of
his court is Hint hto judgment of the
irciiit Court ho reversed when it suslined
tho domurror in this case and
ho action is remanded to t !>? Circuit
