EXTRA! COLORED SOLDIERS TO FRANCE Rumors To The Contrary Are Squashed by Statement of Secretary of War Baker DELEGATE TO SECRETARY Fort Des Moines Sends I. Montgomery Gregory On Mission to War Office I. Montgomery Gregory, former professor of English at Howard, now in training at the Officers' Camp, in Fort Des Moines, was sent last week as special delegate by the men at the Camp to confer with the Secretary of War in Washington as to the disposition of Colored officers and drafted men in the war. The Secretary assured Mr. Gregory on Thursday morning that the commissions would be issued to the Fort Des Moines men October 15th, and they would then be put in charge of colored troops at the cantonment. Secretary Baker said further that the colored drafted men could not be sent to a single cantonment as the Des Moines Reserve Officers requested, because of the objections of both North and South. The office of the War Department is filled every day with Senators and Representatives from the South, who wish special disposition made of colored troops. Some Southern Camps where feeling against colored men is severe, will not get their quota of 3400 colored drafted men. The result will be that other cantonments in sections more favorable will have double or trible quotas, and in this way the request of the colored officers to be placed in a separate division by themselves will be partly met with. In answer to the question whether colored troops would be sent to France to fight, Secretary Baker replied decidedly, colored men would be sent to fight and to take care of the lines of communication—non-combative work. There are 35,000 write men doing work of this character in France now, and colored drafted men will be asked to give their proportion of men for work behind the lines, as well as in the trenches. Secretary Baker said finally that his reputation was staked on the success of the colored officer's Camp at Fort Des Moines and that he hoped their success would vindicate his confidence, and the confidence of the country, in them.

NEGROES TO MARCH IN PROTEST PARADE Ten Thousand Men, Women and Children In Silent Protest Against Wrongs of The Race. Newark, N. J., Sept. 26.—Ten thousand colored men, women and children will march in parade through the streets of this city on October 4th if the plans of the local committee do not go astray. The parade is staged as a silent protest, similar to that of New York, recently, against the wrongs and injustices practised against the colored race by the white people of this country, and especially the authorities of the government at Washington. All classes of the race will join in the parade, from the minister down. The women and children will be dressed in white while the men will be dressed in dark clothes. The ministers of the city and adjacent towns will be in arrested by the police and washing at the head of the procession, which will be preceded by muffled drums. Rev. William Johns, D. D., is the Rev. William Johns, D. D., is the chairman of the executive committee; R.W. Steward secretary, and Rev. Dr.W. G. Alexander, chief marshal. The line will move at one o'clock sharp through the principal streets. The question "Why do we march?" will be answered by the following placards which will be borne in line. The marche because by the grace of God an the force of truth, the dangerous hampering walls of prejudice and inhuman injustices must fall. "We march, because we want to make impossible a reposition of Waco, Memphis and East St. Louis, by rousing the conscience of the country and bring the murderers of our brothers, sisters and innocent children to justice. "We march, because we deem it a crime to be silent in the face of such barbaric nets." We march, because we are thoroughly opposed to Jim Crow Cars, Segregation, Discrimination, Disfranchisement, LYNCHING and the host of evils that are forced on us. It is time that the Spirit of Christ should be manifested in the making and execution of laws. We march because we want our children to live in a better land and enjoy fairer conditions than have fallen to our lot." "We march, because the growing consciousness and solidarity of race coupled with sorrow and discrimination, have made us one; a union that may never be dissolved in spite of shallow-brained agitators, scheming pundits and political apathy and uncertain financial support by promoting the disunion of a people who ought to consider themselves as one."

Camp Lee, Somewhere in Virginia, Sept. 24.-Dear Mr. Editor. I am down here in Virginia at Camp Lee on the cooks' staff and our business is to train the white soldiers who come here how to cook for their respective camps. It is no easy job, for many of them have not the right training of anything connected to cooking. We miss the dear old Afro-American man who you may know I miss it when I have been reading it friendly for the past fifteen years. The camp is, near Petersburg, and Petersburg is having the greatest time in its history since the days old General K. S. Lee.

BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, SEPT. 29, 1917 DEFENSE COUNCIL GETS TO WORK The colored division of the Maryland Council of Defense was held in Sharp Street Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church, Monday.

WOULD-BE WHITE MAN FOUND TO BE A NEGRO Undoing. That "passing for white" has its drawbacks can be attested to by Lorraine Wilson, a chiropodist in the downtown section. Wilson and some other white men became involved in a dual suit as a result of which Wilson received a verdict for $100 he had paid on a house while his opponents received a verdict against him for $90. But to the beginning. Dr. Wilson, who is very fair, rented a house at Windsor Mill and Montgomery Road, an exclusive white neighborhood, (all white neighborhoods are exclusive) and is alleged to have occupied the property for several months. Recently he was broached upon the subject of purchasing the property and as a result. Wilson advanced $100 on the purchase of the property. A clause in the original deed is said to contain the stipulation that the property may not be owned by a person of Negro blood. This caused complications that resulted in moving from the property and the subsequent suits which were aired in the City Court before Judge Dawkins this week. Dr. Wilson has many colored relatives in this city who are well known. He is a grandson of Dr. H. J. Brown who was regarded as a leading figure in Republican circles, a quarter of a century ago, and who at the age of over eighty years, now resides at 426 N. Gilmor street. BETHEL HONORS PASTOR BROOKS Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church was the scene of one of the most brilliant receptions ever given a minister-in this city on last Monday night . Ministers and laymen from every denomination vied with the members of Bethel in doing honor to Dr. and Mrs. W. Sampson Brooks, the church's eloquent pastor and his estimable wife. Although late beginning, due, he said, was so many people who eloquently having an moment at a nearby institution, yet the program was a most enjoyable one. S. S. Booker, General Secretary of the Young Men's Christian Association, was master of ceremonies, handling the situation with a dignity and ease that were most pleasing. The invocation was by Rev. Dr. P. W. Wortham, pastor of St. John's A. M. E. Church. The speakers were Rev. Dr. William M. Alexander, of Sharon Baptist Church, whose eloquent speech on a high pitch of enthusiasm; Rev. Dr. C. H. Stepteen, of Allen A. M. E. Church; Leonard Z. Johnson, of the Madison Street Presbyterian Church, W. A. Hawkins Bishop John Furst and Miss Mabel C. Bourne, Mrs. Laura Gibbs Marshall, Mrs. Helen Cooper Dean, Madam E. L. Bruce, Dr. O. D. Jones and Mr. William E. Hamer were RV. V. the solists. Selections were rendered by the Bethel choir and the choir in Trinity A. M. E. Church under the direction of Madam Gross and Mr. W. Llewellyn Wilson, organist. The program was concluded by an in-bring address by Dr. Brooks in a room he expressed his gratitude not only to his own members, but to the ministers and friends of other churches as well as to the people of Baltimore generally for the magnificent treatment accorded him and his wife since coming to Baltimore to help his great burden resting upon his most historic church. The conduction was by Rev Cecil E. Herbert at the conclusion of the exercises the guests by Bishop and Mrs. John Hurst, and Dr. and Mrs. Brooks, repaired to the banquet hall where sandwiches, coffee, salad, fruit and ice, cream and cake were served. During the feasting a high grade of music was rendered by the Trinity Sunday School Orchestra Ms. Sumuel J. Calmell, Mrs. Isabelle the wife of chairman of the committee of arrangements having in charge this delightful affair. Contributions Coming in For the Soldiers' Kits. Baltimoreans were aroused by the article appearing in the Afro-American last week concerning the comfort kits for the soldier boys of the First Separate Company, and during the week, Mrs. R. W. S. Thomas, president of the Red Cross Section, announced that she had received proffers of support from many courses. The Royal Oak Club, Miss Edna I. Patterson, president, has announced its intention of filling twenty of the kits with the necessary articles. But there are a number yet to be filled and the ladies in charge of the work are very anxious that the kits be ready to be shipped by the 15th of October. It costs about one point to fill kit and persons who do not wish to be bothered with making the purchases can send the cash to Mrs. R. W. S. Thomas. Everybody is urged to help as these little gifts not only serve to make the boys at the tront happy, will be ever present evidences of the fact that the folks at home are thinking of "their soldier boys." The boys at the front are or will very soon be in need of such things as wristlets, sweaters and socks. In order that they may not suffer this winter embroidery clubs and like organizations are asked to form knitting clubs. Knitting material can be secured at the Red Cross Headquarters Eutaw and Druld Hill avenue. The sum of $4.40 was received from Rev. M. J. Naylor this week for the benefit of the East St. Louis sufferers. This makes the total amount received from Baltimore, $107.40: TWO LITTLE BOYS KILLED BY TRAIN Colonel Midnight Tells How The Sons of Prominent Chicagoans Met Their Death Chicago, Ill.—You don't know much about sickness and death until it comes right to your door. If you are not in the act of seeing the suffering, then you are not in position to say much about it. Death has been to the home of our friend and Brother H. H. Lowber, of Philadelphia, and took Wlibur, age 7, and Lindley B., age 5. Perhaps you may not know Mr. Lowber, but if you have ever been around the A. M. E. Sunday School at 17th and Bainbridge streets, you have met him, for he has been connected with that Sunday School ever since he was knee-high-to-a-grasshopper. If you have ever had any business with the passenger department of the Pennsylvania railroad, you have seen him right there, for he has been connected with that department for years, hol d avery responsible position. He is a friend to his people, and never loses an opportunity t odo a favor for a preacher. His home is at 1681 Kinsey street, Frankford, Pa. His wife and children had made a trip in an automobile to Dover, Del., September 2, and were returning home with her children. The railroad was reached, the children told the man at the wheel that the train was coming, but Mr. Hardhead would not listen, but tblunged on, and the engine struck his car sending into eternity two bright little boys. This was indeed a sad thing, and I went to assure Mr. and Mrs. Lowher that they have the sympathy of the readers of the Afro-American, as well as that of myself. It is such a pity when a child meets an untimely death, because we do not know what is wrapped up in them. Out of the boys we are to get the men, and with good parents, whose lives are centered in directing the lives of their children for manhood and womanhood we may expect good things. But let us pray for the life and happiness of the father and mother and for the children who are left behind. I spent a few hours in Baltimore last week—in fact I spent a night there with Mr. and Mrs. Thadius Copeland. 1922 Drudd Hill avenue, and to me it was a source of pleasure. He is the superintendent of Bethel A. M. E. Sunday School and has held that place for a long time. He is considered one of the best Sunday school workers in our race, and we are all proud of him. He has some of the best men and women in the country associated with him in the work. Among them is Editor John H. Murphy, and that man has been connected with Sunday schools almost ever since they were invented by Robert Rake, back yonder in Bath England before I was born. Air Copeland has been a friend to me, and that way that he always wants it in his home. I was delighted to see his name. He was a representative of Baltimore at the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias and was attentive to the business there as he is to his Sunday school. He is a man among men and I am glad that I know him. If I had stayed away from Baltimore just a weck or so longer, I would not have known the Afro-American office. They are preparing to do great things there. Already the foundation is down for one of them big newspaper presses, and you are going to need them to do anything to make things hum there. They were all gird to see me when I reached the building. Arnett had a smile that would do honor to the Gold Dust Twins, saying nothing about the smile on the faces of Mrs. Henry Miss Bourne. The devil jumped from behind the hell box, and the office cat must have turned over from the place where she sleeped. I touched the man and put him down to do the Editor. John M. Murphy Jr., rode down in a special automobile in order to shake hands with me. John Murphy, has made a place for himself in this country. He is a man who believes in his race and their possibility, and to that end he has labored to give to the people a good clean newspaper. If he has failed, it has not been because he failed to try, and he is still putting something into it. He will have business so that if he should pass out his children can take it right on to perfection. They have the greatest love and respect for "the Boss." did not see many in Baltimore or get to many places. Lawyer C. L. Vendleton thought that I had crossed the other land, because he had not heard from me for so long. I had the pleasure of meeting his wife at her home, also Bishop John Hurst. But I am not going to tell you all that now, but will have something to say another time. The Afro-American is Maryland's Greatest Colored Weekly Newspaper PRICE THREE CENTS. Mr. Charles W. Wright Meets Horrible Death in Union Freight Yards The many friends of Mr. Charles W. Wright were shocked to hear of his death by being run over by a train at Union Station on Sunday. The deceased was run over at the lower end of the yards under the Calvert street bridge. Mr. Wright was on his way to the private car of President Daniel Willard of the B. & O., which was standing in the yards of the Pennsylvania, preparatory to starting to Buffalo on Monday morning. When found his body was completely severed, with a number of minor bruises about the face and head. Mr. Wright was among the oldest employees of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, having started there under John W. Garrett, then president, as his personal attendant. He has been in the executive department ever since having served under W. T. Manny, Col. Douglass, F. D. Underwood and others. He was held in high esteem by his employees and among the letters of condolence received by the members of his family were many from men high in the military, President Willard and President F. D. Underwood of the Eric Railroad. Mrs. Daniel Willard and her daughter were among those who called at the house or the deceased and personally expressed their sympathy. Others who called were Mrs. Charles H. Rousch, Mr. George Campbell, Mr. J. S. Murray, assistant to the President o the B. & O., Mr. F. H. B.

McGuinn, who was recently elected to membership in the State Central Committee from that ward, tendered the advocacy committee in charge of his campaign an informal luncheon.

Rich and Mr. Clark. After thanking the voters for their loyal support during the campaign, Mr. McGuinn urged the organization of a permanent body in order that matters affecting the ward may be discussed and that a feeling of friendliness might exist among all classes. "Our future in this ward politically," he said, "will depend upon the amount of interest we take in the civic affair organization that is thoroughly conversant with conditions in every part of the ward will be of inestimable value from every viewpoint." The other speakers heartily endorsed Mr. McGuinn's plan and a committee was immediately appointed to perfect an organization. The committee is as follows: Messrs. Richard Newton, Dr. J. H. Bunday, Dr. Joseph B. Mason, Walter S. Emerson, Charles Owens, Daniel H. Murphy, George L. Dent, Maurer E. Brinker, James Herman Briscoe and John Briscoe.

ELLIGOTT CITY AND ANACOSTIA LEADING The agents contest of the Afro-American is beginning to narrow down to a few hustling agents, as the time for awarding of prizes draws nearer. Miss Bessie Lett at Elliott City, and Rev. Geo, West of Anacostia, running almost neck and neck for first place with Miss Scott having a shade the better of it. Miss Scott's increase to date is 53 and Rev. West's 50. Mr. I. B. Turner, or Cambridge, who is the largest state agent for the Afro-American is a close third, with a total increase to date of 40 copies. Mr. Noah Gunhy, of Pocomoke, who up until this week did not enter the race, jumped into the contest and asked for an increase of 10 copies. There is little doubt but what the aim of the Afro-American to increase its sales a thousand copies by Christmas thru its agents, will be realized, and that the ones who are working to help will not only receive the reward of the prizes offered but the larger revenue that will come with the increase of their sales. A new agency has been established at Snow Hill, Md., under the management of Rev. E. J. Henry, and we are looking for big things from this "neck o' the woods." Increases this week as follows:— Anacostia ..... 10 Cambridge ..... 10 Pocomoke City ..... 10 Ellicott City ..... 5 Havre de Grace ..... 1 Chase ..... 1 Towson ..... 2 WOODVILLE JOTTINGS Woodville, Md., Sept. 27. —The Third Quarterly Conference of the Woodville Charge was held at St. Thomas M.

PAYABLE IN ADVANCE Three Months - - Forty cents Six Months - - - Fifty Centa One Year - - - One Dollar SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1917 Since white soldiers encamped at Camp Gordon Harris near Macon, Georgia, assaulted four girls in an automobile on a lonely road recently, colored people have become oppressive. Employers have been requested to let female workers off in time to reach home before dark. Residents near Camp Meade should take notice. - MORGAN COLLEGE White citizens of Ladraville and adjacent territory are very much "het" up over the removal of Morgan College from its old and inadequate building at the corner of Saratoga street and Fulton avenue to a spacious campus of 67 acres on Hillen Road near Lauraville. Not only are they displeased at the temerity of Morgan College in venturing to remove to the suburbs of the city, but they have filed a suit at Towson to prevent the trustees of the college from occupying and utilizing the property they have purchased. If Morgan College is forced to vacate, it will be the second time this year that a philanthropic institution of this city has been compelled to sell its property because of the protest of white neighbors. The delay of the Y. M. C. A. in starting its new building on the corner of McCulloh and Dolphin streets is due to the whites of the neighborhood, who invoked the segregation ordinance to help them. Fortunately there is no segregation law on the books of Baltimore county, where the new home of Morgan College is situated. The Lauraville people have, for this reason, a more difficult task than those who prevented the Y. M. C. A. from building on its own site. This fact has not deterred them however, and they are hoping to have the college vacate its premises by bluffs, threats and perhaps later by violence. In the face of it all, President Spencer and Dean Pickens are standing pat on the rights of the college to occupy any property that it owns. In last week's paper Dean Pickens pointed out that the college has been in its old location in a white neighborhood for the past 40 years without being a nuisance or eliciting a complaint. His article stated that Morgan College had not moved to Lauraville in order to be in a white neighborhood, (they were already in one), but to acquire the larger space needed for the development of the work and future of the school. Moreover not only the future of the school is at stake. The fight against the college "is a challenge to the right of the whole colored population of Baltimore to EXIST IN SPACE and to walk the streets." Many prominent citizens and local associations are behind Morgan College in the fight to keep their property. Attempts by these same Lauraville people to have the state legislature in its last session pass a law evicting Morgan College failed largely thru the efforts of the Maryland Association for Social Service and others who had the whole situation clearly before them. As long as Morgan cannot be legally driven out, the indications are that it will neither be bluffed nor threatened. A NEW PARTY The suggestion of the October Crisis of last year to the effect that the inability of the colored people to secure recognition from the existing political parties should cause them to establish a national party of their own, has born fruit. Clergy and laity from eight states met in Atlantic City recently and proclaimed the organization of a Negro Party to be known as the "National Independent Civil and Political Party of America." Quite a lot of name when just "Negro Party" would have served just as well. However the only point is can this newly organized party control the 2,500,000 colored voters in this country? At least they are going to try, and have announced their effort to raise a fund of $50,000 to further the campaign. The founders of the new party declared for women's suffrage, prohibition, and a federal law against lynchings with provisions for the maintenance of the dependents of men lynched. These are minor declarations beside the main plank, which calls for CITY HAPPENINGS OF INTEREST Mr. John Thomas, of the Dunbar School, has asked for a year's leave of absence for the purpose of study. of Missouri. Miss Alethea Washington, of the Miss Alethea Training School, Miss Watts and Miss Randolph of the Frederick Douglas School will study at the University of Chicago this winter. Miss Tompkins of the Practice Department has resigned to teach in Chicago. Miss Nannie B. Grooms, of School 107. Miss Mary K. Owens, of the Robert Brown Elliott School, and Miss Edith V. Lynch are out of school because of personal illness. Mr. Win. H. Lee, principal of School 103 had to leave the city this week to attend the funeral of his sister. Cupid seems to continue to pay his respects to the teaching force, both young and old bow to his wishes Miss Barbara Rusk, a member of the junior class of the Teacher's Training School, being one of the latest recruits. It is rumored that several of the regular teachers are soon to follow. Miss Pearl Fisher, of the Practice Department of the Teacher's Training School, will take charge of the English in the Theory Department. It is an ill wind that blows no good. Many leaves of absence and resignations have made positions for a large number of teachers who were on the eligible list. Quite a few new teachers have been appointed in the Colored High School. CELEBRATES THIRD BIRTHDAY About thirty of the very, very young society folk of the city gathered at the home of little Mary Elizabeth Murphy, 748 Waesche street, last Monday afternoon to help her celebrate her third birthday. The ages of the guests ranged from ten months to five years, but they were all children just the same and they played and laughed and cried and ate until the "sand-man" was ready for most of them, and their mothers, and chaperones had to toddle them off to their homes before they fell asleep. The little hostess received many beautiful and useful gifts from her friends and tried in her own way to see that everyone got his full share of enjoyment in return. The invited guests included: Misses Susie Minor, Dawndolyn Thomas, Nannie Harik, Clementine Murphy, Murray Murray Gladys Jackson, Albion Johnson, Olivia Carter, Mary Hayward, Elizabeth Oliver, Katherine Blackwell, Susie Bruce, Alice House and Margaret Deman. Masters James Scott, Wilbert Harris, Avon Rawlings, John Murphy 3rd, Houston Murphy, Donald Murray, William and Nathaniel Proctor, Allen Collick, Jr., Milton and Warren Weaver, Robert Hopkins, William Lee, Richard Blackwell, John Oliver, Richard Blackwell, Milton Bruce and Antonie Brown. SUCCESSFUL FLOWER RALLY The Primary Department of Allen A. M. F. Sunday School held a very successful Flower Queens' Rally on Thursday evening, September 20, 1917. There were nine queens, rang- ing from the ages of from six to nine years, respectively. After a beautiful musical program under the leadership of Mdmes. Katie Miller, Margurette Fortile and Clara Scott, the little queens made the following report: Edna Harris, as carnation $5.10 Hilda Truxon, as daisy 10.92 Cordetta Hill, as pansy 7.00 Ada Glover, as buttercup 1.34 Hattie Jones. Grand total We are exceedingly grateful to every one who helped to make this affair successful. Mr. Howard D. Brent, superintendent; Miss Ada Wells, assistant secretary. Rev. C. Harold Stephan, pastor. The Cosmopolitan Choral Society which made such a favorable impression upon the musical public at its last recital in June will begin its regular rehearsals for the coming season Monday evening, October 1st in one of the lecture rooms of Bethel A. M. E. Church at 7:30. This organization which is perhaps the largest choral society in the state plans to present during the season some of the most noted musicians of the race and also many of the famous choral compositions of the world and especially such compositions by men of color as will be available. In the preparation and rendition of the various programs of the society the wishes of the musical public and lovers as well as the gradual enhancement of the Negro as a musical factor in Baltimore will be kept in view. Some original compositions by local artists may be presented. The continued co-operation of the public is solicited. Those wishing to meet the Committee on Membership may do so Monday evening. DISTRICT CONVENTION MEETS The annual meeting of the District Convention of the L. O. of St. Luke was held on Monday night, September 24th at the hall, Carneine and Millman streets. After the review of the work by the District Deputy the new officers were elected for the ensuing year. The election was presided over by the grand worthy messenger, Mrs. M. E. McCormick. On motion the Rev. Williams was elected as the district deputy, Mrs. Annie C. Scott, the associated deputy. The appointed officers were; Mrs. F. Snowden, district secretary; Mr. Eagly, treasurer; Rev. Henry Thomas, chaplain; Rev. Williams, reporter; Mr. E. Gillett, grand marshal. The meeting was well attended and much interest manifested in the new administration. A strong effort will be put forth to assist our state deputy of Maryland, Mrs. Mary E. Collins, whose report stood second for the highest number of members added to the Order; also received the second highest prize. The motto now for the next two years is To Win The First Prize. Mr. Isaac Bond has returned home after a delightful visit to his relatives and many friends in Harford county, Md. full manhood rights of the Negro. Quite a deal of work or organization and extension is ahead of the new party if it expects to become an effective force. Not only does it have to combat the enormous campaign funds of the other national parties, but it will need to conduct an educational campaign both North and South. If rightly led, it need not fear for the hearty support of all intelligent people. NON-STRIKE LABOR? The waiters of the Copley Square Hotel in Boston went on a strike last week following the inhilation of their white union brethren to aid them in their fight for better working conditions. The men demanded an increase from $6 to $8 per week and one day off. Checkers and bellboys were called on to serve guests, who were left in the dining room, when the waiters walked out. Some of the strikers have been in the employ of the hotel management for a quarter of a century, yet walked out when the call came. There is every indication that the strikers will win, and justly they ought to win. The high cost of living affects them just as it does every other worker. At the same time a number of workmen of the shops of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, estimated at 500 walked out at the Rocky Mount, N. C. shops, when the six and one half per cent increase was given to all laborers except Negroes. In Norfolk, Va., according to the Journal and Guide, 300 colored women working for the American Tobacco Company as stemmers, went on a strike for increased wages and shorter hours. In each of these three cases the workers have been organized into unions and pledged themselves to stick together. It appears that the capitalists, who have been employing colored workers for exploitation, are due a surprise. They believed that the white unions would not receive colored people, and so colored workers would be unable to organize and strike when they wanted better conditions. The capitalists invoked the principle that "non-strike labor is non-organized labor," and felt perfectly safe in employing colored workers at low wages. Colored labor has fooled these employers by organizing itself into local unions when the larger bodies did not take them in. A few more instances of the above will convince grasping capitalists : colored labor will strike as quickly and determinedly as any other. A MYSTERY SOLVED "Get off the earth, you Japs, IIn- "Get off the earth, you Japs, Hindoos and Niggers." "No we won't, you stop shoving" A circular with the above printed in large type in red ink, and with a paragraph accusing the whites of gobbling up practically the entire surface of the earth, exterminating the natives, and denying those, whom they do not wipe out, the rights of citizenship in the name of civilization, Christianity, and religion has been sent broadcast over the country for the past two years. This office has received several unsigned copies. The unknown author termed it a "mild rebuke to the pale face greed, avarice, and rapacity. First snot in the initial skirmish inaugurating a war of races unless colored people are better treated." This last line got the author in trouble with the Federal authorities, and last week James E. Henderson, physician, of Springfield, Illinois, was arrested charged with the distribution of riot-inciting literature. Dr. Henderson admitted his guilt, said he had sent a copy even to the U. S. Marshall, and is out on $2,000 bond. Dr. Henderson's circular would have been quite as effective without his last statement as with it. Had he left it, he would not now be in the toils of the Federal authorities. He has the right to his propaganda against "pale face greed," but even the sincerest race patriot should have the sense not to talk about rebellion when there is no chance of its success. The Tuskegee Student publishes this excerpt from one of the late Booker Washington's Sunday Evening Talks to pupils at the beginning of a school term. Dr. Washington's advice is, mighty good for all school children: "And last, but far from least, set aside a regular time for thinking, for meditating with yourself. Take yourself up, pick yourself to pieces, see wherein you are weak and need strengthening. Analyze yourself. Get rid, as it were, of all the weights that have been holding you back, and resolve at the end of each week that you will walk upon your dead selves of the week before. If you will go on, making that kind of progress, you will find at the end of the nine school months that you are stronger in everything essential to good manhood and good womanhood."

The charmed circle broken, a dear face missed; Day by day from its usual place, But, cleansed saved perfected by grace. One more in Heaven, one less on earth Its pain, its sorrow, its toils to share, One less the pilgrim daily cross to bear; One more the crown of the blest to wear, At home in Heaven.

COMMON SENSE HEALTH TALKS No.4 With the advent of cold weather there is evidence a train of alliments which are practically unheard-of during the summer. ing the This is the time when old cases of "rheumatism" begin to give notice that they have barely been dormant, not cured; when neuralic pains of the sides and back and limbs may cause more or less alarm; when comps, resulting from female disorders of recent or long standing, may cause more or less discomfort; when colds-in-the-head or coughs may give clear signal that the summer is over past and winter is approaching. That these and many other bodily inconveniences are due to "catching cold," there is no doubt about it; but that all of them can be successfully avoided is a truism which many do not realize and which others ignore. Cold a terrible Dung. As simple and harmless as a cold may seem, it is one of the most dangerous foes to health imaginable. Not even a "head cold" should be trusted or given a season of entertainment, so as to speak. From the nostrils to bottommost parts of the lungs is a continuous cavity, larger in some parts than in others, but nevertheless, vitally correlated. A simple cool-in-the-head," if neglected, will not only ultimately extend to the throat, causing sore throat or tonsillitis or quince or diphtheria, but may dip into the wind pipe, cause laryngitis or bronchitis or any of the pneumonias. Consumption may follow a slight cold, a bad cold or a neglected cold, depending whether the germs are in the lung or its adjacent parts. Various cavities of the head may involve at the onset or as a complication of a "head cold." But coming cold is not confined to the head or air passages. For instance, one may catch cold in one's airways or bowels and thus start tuberculosis of the bowels. To harbour a cold and say valuable time in trying useless home remedies or the various nonsensical stuffs often advertised at this time of the year for sale is literally gambling with one's health. The result is often disastrous. To send for the doctor or call at his office after the cold has enthroned itself supreme and the vitality given hostage to a relentless pneumonia or tuberculosis is the piti- ANNUAL SESSION OF COURTS OF CALANTHE Cambridge, Md., Sept. 28.—The Annual Session of the Grand Court of O.

The intention of saving the doctor's fee and drug bill often leads to a larger compulsory expenditure at the hands of the undertaker. To deal loosely with a cold is like harboring a frozen rattlesnake in one's bosom. Danger Signs of a Cold Whenever a cold lingers, either from neglect or after proper treatment; when a cough is occasional and "sticks," the appetite is low, the weight falling, and emaciation shows itself by prominent collar bones when the face begins to grow slow and pale, the lips blenched and dry and the cheek bone swelling more and more visible when there is trouble—serious "mobility" in the camp." It is not "mobility" nor a mere "run-down." Don't consult the neighbors about it; don't take beef, wine and iron—its allot. You need a doctor and need one badly. This is as true as the gospel. What to do With a Cold This is as simple as a b c. Never rest until you get rid of it. To regard a cold as a matter of course is oftentimes an invitation to severe illness if not death. If it were natural to be with a cold everybody would have it at all times. Promptly attacking a cold is the best way to get it but it must be attacked properly by competent physicians, not by druggists. Should it be in spite of the cold, it must be discouraged, never rest at until it IS GONE. The longer it remains the more should it be regarded with suspicion. Another way of avoiding a cold is by wearing, proper clothing. But, alas, how can the ladies do this with any sense of up-to-dateness when they are competed, at fashion's behest, to make visible, a la negligence, all that seems to lend so much charm to feminine attractiveness and beauty? It is in conforming to "the latest style" that the laws of health are frequently violated. By the use of proper clothing there will be less cold contracted. Proper ventilation, day and night, prevents easily catching cold. Making air in time, that is to say any time it is cold and not until Thanksgiving, can not be too strongly emphasized. Corpses are better kept cold, but really live people must be warm. An revoil. EDWARD MAYFIELD BOYLE. CARROLL HAPPENINGS Carroll, Md. Sept. 27. —The services es held at Evergreen A. M. E.

Books and pampblets of real merit by members of the race and by others about the race have appeared in more ‘than usual abundance. In this article only the. barest mention ean be made of those productions of greatest merit. “The African Abroud.” a work of three large yolumes, by William H, Ferris, ‘A. M., of New Haren, Conn.

Mr. Lynch defends the re construction governments against the charges so often mude axainst them of incompetence, extravagance and dis- honesty. As to thieir honesty ke says that in Mississippi all funds were ac counted for until the reconstructed Re publican governinent was overthrown by the Democrats. ‘The first Demo- eratic state irensurer was found. to be short over $300.000 and was convicted. sentenced and served in state prison. Mr. Lynch by the same sort of facts shows how the only way the Negroes were kept from. practical re-enslave ment was by the methods of congress in denling with the reconstruction of the soutliern governments. ‘The work 4s to be highly commended and ought to be largely read. “Life of Norris Wright Cuney," by Mande Cuney Hare.

Scarborough, Booker 'T, Washington, Bishop L. J. Coppin, F. J. Grimke, W. B. B, DuBois, X. C. Ransom and others. It is about 500 pages and ts especially adaptable for college students and Nterary societies. ‘The author has been discriminating in her selections and bas reudered the race a real service. In “Reminiscences of an Educator” Fanny J.

Being zealous for further education in a day when the advisa- dility of higher education was. ques- tioned even for white women, she en- tered Oberlin college, from which she was graduated in 1865. From 1865 tc 1902, thirty-seven years, she was 8 teacher in the famous Institate For Colored Youth, established in Philadel- phia for higher education of the race in 1837. “The Hand of Fate.” a dramn in five acts by Beresford Gale. intended tc show the progress of the race during fifty years, It has considerable merit It vividly depicts conditions directls after the war an¢ contrasts them Witt present day conditions. “Mission Study Course.” by Rev. 3 ‘W.

Pro- fessor Sturt has written an extremely serviceable and eminently fair book upon the Negro republic. ‘The profes: sor tells of his visit to the country and his impressions of the same, He dis. cusses the physiography, political gous- raphy, society, government, economics, history and problems of Liberia. Es- pechilly interesting 1s his treatment of the problems: ‘ie boundary question, frontier force, development of trade and transportation, the native popula. tion, education, immigration, public cht and foreign loans, polities, ete. Professor Starr seers to think that Liberla has not got a fair chance from writers as a rule, Te holds out ‘tiope. He suys in his preface: “A successful Liberia would be a star of hope to the dark continent, Tn Liberian success there lies African redemption—redemp- tion not only in the relixious sense, but reilemption economic, social, govern- mental, If the blick ian ean stand alone in Liberia he can stand aloue elsewhere, If the Negro is able to or- xanize and maintain a government on the west const he can do the same on the cust const snd in the southern part of Africa." ‘The hook contains list of Liberian officials und presidents. since the bezinning, the constitution, declara- tion of independence aud tional anthem. ‘he author pays a glowing tribute to such colored men among the carly founders of Liberia as Elijal Johnson and Tott Carey: and such men | of its Inter duy's as President Joseph J Hoberts, President Arthur Burelay and others. Me thinks that Liberia. offers a fine opportunity fur Negro Ameri- cans of Intelliyence, energy and some money. “ihe Nexro’s Progress For Fifty Years" ts the subject of the September igsne of the Annals of the Academy ‘of Political and Social Seience.
