GREAT RAI BETH Remarkable Demonstration Announcement Was M tribution of $2,000 GREATEST IN HISTORY Bishops Sorrell, Williams Raise Over One Thous Mrs. Brooks' Great GREAT RALLY AT BETHEL NETS $11,172 Remarkable Demonstration When Final Announcement Was Made--One contribution of $2,000.00. GREATEST IN HISTORY OF CHURCH Bishops Sorrell, Williams and Heath Each Raise Over One Thousand Dollars. Mrs. Brooks' Great Feat. VOL. XXVI. No 37. "Ring the bell, ring the bell," shouted Dr. W. Simpson Brooks at 5 o'clock Tuesday morning, and as the bell in the tower of Bethel A. M. E. Church rang out, it announced to all Baltimore that the greatest rally in the history of colored churches in this country had come to a successful conclusion. The objective of the rally was ten thousand dollars, but when the money was all in it was found that the total amount raised in cash was $11,172, and it is confidently expected by the members that $12,000 will be reached. When the total amount raised was announced, the five hundred or more people who had lived patiently throughout the night broke out in joy and continued cheering, so that no worth waiting all night to witness. People ran up and down the aisles shaking hands with each other and many of the older members who had been through the critical struggles with this historic church, just sat in their seats and with tears streaming down their wrinkled faces, evidenced their joy at the success of the undertaking. Several months ago the membership of the church was divided into "conferences" with bishops, presiding elders, ministers and members, while the Sunday School was organized under the name of "Will-be-Forceful University." Thus every member of the church was put to work, and every member of the church is deserving of praise for the great success. Not only did the members work, but REV. W. HAMPSON BROOKS. D. B. members of other churches and denominations, catching some of the orthosism of the Bethlehemies, and charmed by the personality and magnetism of Pastor Brooks, put their shoulders to the wheel, and vied with the members of the church in "putting the thing over." Entertainments were held from which goodly sums were realized, but the most of the money was raised through the personal efforts of the workers. The final accounting the great mock conference was booked for Monday night, and before it was dark people began to gather at the church, while workers scurried hither and thither gathering in the shecklets that had been held out until the last minute. At the conclusion of a short sermon by Rev. Aquilla Brooks the big church auditorium was well filled and the suppressed excitement was evidenced by the expectant expression upon the faces of the audience. Then Pastor Brooks introduced William H. Proctor, president of the university. The announcement that the members of the Sunday School had raised over seven hundred dollars brought forth applause that lasted several minutes. Following this the "Thousand Dollar Conference" under "Bishop" John T. Williams announced its receipts as $1,075 and again the big audience broke into cheering. Then "Bishop's" Theodore White, Frederick Johns, Edward F. Barnett, Daniel W. Lee, William B. Hamer, Robert Sorrell, George Palmer, Jacob Heath, Charles Monroe, Thaddeus Copeland and William Watts were introduced and in turn presided over the "conference." When Bishop Sorrell was called open to preside and it was announced that he had collected over $250, the highest individual amount contributed up to that time, the audience went wild, but when a few minutes later Mrs. Susie Brooks, wife of the pastor, reported $230 it was a difficult matter to secure order. A call from pastor Brooks to make this amount four hundred dollars brought forth immediate response, and in a few minutes the report of liev. Mrs. Brooks stood at $111. Bishop Brooksference raised over $2,200. This remarkable performance was again represented "Bishop"Health answered the total for his conference of nearly $550 and the amount necessary to make this report read one thousand dollars was quickly forthcoming. Friends of Pastor Brooks from his native home, Calvert county, under Mrs. Eliza Cole, raised $300. Thus throughout the long hours of the night the conferences reported and the large audience waited in order to hear the final amount. When the last report was read Secretary Young announced the total as nine thousand dollars all to a few pennies, there was a breathless silence for a few seconds. Immediately Pastor Brooks announced that he had received contributions from two persons interested in the church, one white and one colored, one of two thousand dollars and the other of one hundred dollars. Then pandemonium broke loose and the rally closed amid scenes never before witnessed in this city. The reports were as follows: Will-be-forceful University, $731.12, Earthquake conference, Bishop White, $663.85; Thousand Dollar Conference, Bishop J. T., Williams, $1075.47; Turnout Conference, Bishop Johns, $304.59; Paupers Conference, Bishop E. W. Barnett, $857.12; Nightingale Conference, Bishop Daniel W. Lee, $453.69; Rough Riders Conference, Bishop W. R., Humer, $525.83; Matter-of-Fact Conference, Bishop Robert Sorrell, $1295.00; Little Kid Conference, Bishop Palmer, $768.00; Shipwreck Con ference, Bishop Jacob Heath, $1001; Ethiopian` `Conference`, Bishop Copeland, $444.76; Widows` `Mite Conference`, Bishop Charles Monroe, $133.10; Debt-Payers` `Conference`, Bishop Wm. Watts, $414.41; Calvert Countains, $300 and the General Officers, $107.40. The official count revealed that very few mistakes had been made in the counting of this large sum of money. The rally was officially come to a close next Sunday week, when it is expected to make the amount twelve and dollars. Ten thousand dollars will be paid on the principal debt of the church. When this sum is paid, it will make $20,000 that has been paid on the principal debt of the church during the pastorate of Dr. Brooks which began thirteen months ago. CHURCH CONSECRATED Petersburg, Va., June 6—The handsome new house of worship of St. Stephen's Protestant Episcopal Church was formally dedicated Sunday. Rev. George F.

Maryland to Send 2,500 Washington, June 5.—A call for 40,000 colored selective service men, qualified for general military service, was issued today by Provost Marshal General Crowder.

New York Outcasts Flock to Baltimore New-York, June 7.—The old order changeth and the new one prevails, is a true saying about old Gotham these "days. It has not loosened its commercial and financial supremacy, but it no longer has any room for the lofter professional. The latter genous home has been on the toboggan for more than a decade, and with the closing up of the gambling houses and the outlawing of race tracks he took himself to Baltimore and a few other more congenial climes. But now the last straw has broken the camel's back for the few "gentlemen of leisure" that are left. The State, following the lead of Maryland, has enacted a compulsory work law. Governor Whitman has gone so far as to issue a proclamation saying that loffers and those working in what is regarded as non-essential labor may be fined $100, sent to the workhouse for three months or given both penalties. Boom times and the war have greatly lessened the loafing element in Harlem, but the compulsory work law has even made the neighborhood around 135th street and Lenox avenue seem shy of loffers. It is all because "no work" means "some fine" or "some fail" or some of both. Then the old order has changed for the fellow who went to his barber on Sunday mornings in order to have the edges rubbed off his whiskers before going to see his best girl. Well, the barbers have agreed to keep the Sabath holy, and, therefore go to church on Sunday mornings instead of keeping an open shop. You can play pool and billiards still on Sundays, but Coney Island is now somewhat dark on account of the fear of submarines. Alas! New York is not New York—at least for the loater. Colored Methodists to Raise Million Dollars Columbus, O., June 7.—A broader program of social service for the Methodist Episcopal churches of the country will be discussed here at a meeting of bishops and district superintendents of the denomination on June 18, 19 and 20. The meeting will be in furtherance of the plan of the connection to raise $50,000,000 for its missionary and social uplift work. The project calls for work on the broadcast lines and will seek to have established in every small and large city as well as in rural communities, a church where various uplift activities will center. Colored churches are included in the big program and they are expected to raise at least $1,000,000 of the big sum. Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, of Washington, one of the field secretaries of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension, has spoken in various sections of the country for the project and succeeded in arousing widespread interest. He says that the success of the campaign means a great future for colored churches in every community. THE CHURCH OF ST. MARY'S 16 LYNCHED IN TEXAS SINCE U.S. ENTERED WAR New York, June 5.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through its secretary, John R. Shillady, made public a telegram sent Monday to Governor W. P. Hobby, of Texas, protesting against the lynching of Mrs. Hunt Cabinness and her five sons at Huntsville, Texas, and the fatal wounding of her daughter on June 1, as the result of an altercation between a white man and George Cabinness. Mr. Shillady calls the attention of the Governor to the fact that sixteen Negroes have been lynched in the State of Texas alone since America entered the war, and pointedly asks the Governor concerning his action in bringing to justice the murderers of the six Negroes. At a time when 157,000 Negroes are offering their lives for the preservation of the ideals of democracy, the Association wishes to know if the Negroes of Texas are to be given their share of the democracy for which they are fighting. The telegram follows: June 3, 1918. Hon. W. P. Hobby, Governor, Austin, Texas. "Press dispatches in New York papers June first state that Mrs. Sarah Cabiness, a colored woman, and her five sons were shot to death by a mob at Huntsville, Texas, on June first, and her daughter famously wounded because of altercation between white man and George Cabiness. In the name of its one hundred twenty-five branches with over thirty thousand members of both races as well as all other justice loving people of our country, the National association for the Advancement of Colored People protests in the strongest terms against this outrage and urges you to use every power at your command to bring the perpetrators to justice. Two hundred forty-seven Negroes have been victims of mob violence since the United States entered the war. Sixteen of this number have been lynched in the state of Texas alone. At a time when one hundred fifty-seven thousand Negroes are in France, they are going to get offending their love for the preservation of our country, it behoves Texas to do everything though its officials to stamp out mob violence. The laws of Texas are adequate to punish all offenders against them. Lynching is a cancerous growth upon the body polite and unless checked will spread as it has done during the orgy of bloodshed in your State and in Georgia during the past two weeks. Is Texas going to uphold her laws in this present crisis? JOHN R. SHILLADY, Secretary Philadelphia, June 6—The million dollar drive of the Crispus Attucks Circle for War Telief, with headquarters at 149 South Broad street, has as its objective the Mercy Hospital. The building to be used is at Pittieh street and Woodland avenue and was the Episcopal Divinity School.

Realizing the vital need of a hospital for their people, prominent citizens organized the Crispus Attucks Circle and are conducting the campaign now in progress. The drive is not contained in Philadelphia, but will include outside counties and towns.

About the City FAMOUS FIGHTER'S MOTHER FACES POVERTY. "It's all I could do," sobbed Mrs. Marta Gans as she laid a few flowers on the grave of her famous son, Joe Gans, in Mt. Auburn Cemetery Decoration Day. She passed from Joe Gans to that of his son, James Gans, and thence to that or her brother. "It's all I could do" has a deeper meaning than the general public suspects for the flowers on Joe's grave were fewer than ever this year. It indicated that his mother is about the end of her financial resources, and, though too proud to ask for aid, needs it. As Mrs. Gans strewed flowers over the graves of her beloved ones some who come out to bedeke the graves of their own dead stopped to look. They shed a tear, too, as tears dropped from Mrs. Gans' eyes. They knew well that were Joe Gans living his mother would have everything that she needs. It was a little over a year ago that her home—the gift of Joe—at 1030 Argyle avenue, was sold for unpaid taxes. Since then she has been occupying a room at the southwest corner of Greenwillow and Little rine street, just around the corner from the home where Joe died. These are dreary days for the mother of the famous lightweight champion who brought fame to Baltimore and made Al Herford rich. He had hosts of friends when he was living and spending his money, but most of them seem to have forgotten Gans' old mother. It was she who gave her son the famous advice when he went to Goldfield, New York to battling Nelson. Bring him to the bacon" Joe brought the "bacon" in the shape of the lightweight championship and enough money to make all Baltimore sit up. Out of the proceeds he built the Goldfield Hotel. Mother lived good in those days, for her son was living. Now that he is gone she is hovering on the brinks of the penniless and Joe Gans' legion of friends seem to be in ignorance of the fact. DENTISTS PASS EXAMINATIONS Twelve graduates of the dental department of Howard University, Washington, created a deep impression at the case with which they passed the tests prepared by the Maryland State Board of Dental Examiners last week. When it came to filling two teeth apiece—one with gold and the other with silver—the men did it with a dexterity that amazed all of the whites. One white man was heard to remark: "I never saw any darkies as smart and well equipped as those since I was born." A large number of whites took the examination also, and some were not so fortunate in passing the various tests as the well-trained men from Howard University. WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs. Joseph C. Costen celebrated their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary on Thursday, May 27, 1918, at their residence 1043 W. Lexington street. Amid a background of palms and cut flowers the receiving party presented a most beautiful scene. Mrs. Costen was charmingly attired in a satin gown over rave lace and a neckline of pearls and diamonds. She was assisted in receiving by her daughter Mrs. Elsie Costen Collick, in white Georgette and lace. Mrs. Hattie Washington in steel taffeta and chiffon; Mrs. Annie Nichols in white cope de chine and Mrs. Mattie B. Smith in steel and white Georgette. Among the many invited guests was Rev. J. W.

M. C. A. Two handsome loving cups were awarded the winners in the recent checker tournament held at the Y. M. C. A. Building in which 18 men and 15 boys took part. The senior cup was given to Dr. B. M. Rhetta who defeated all comers in a three weeks tournament. The junior cup was given to Louis Harmon who defeated all the boys in the Association. The donor of the cups made all the condition, namely, cups must be played for every six months and said contest must be held at the association building. Mr. C. A. Robbins made the presentation speech and during his remarks he stated that the present champion could not hold the cup longer than November, for when it comes to playing checkers, no one man can beat Messrs. Jones, Sollman, Young. Ray, Biddle, Caster, Woodward and Lewis consistently. The tournament created much interest in checkers about the building. The boards are being used every night and if this keeps up, there will be some hot time when the next tournament comes. Mr. C. A. Robinson was elected president of the checker club.

Tate is an easy-going and mild-mannered man. He has been to the Holy Land and hundreds of people have read his pamphlets. He aroused the ire of the Bancal Ministers' Conference last week when he declared that President P. Carter Neal conducted the Marshs of the meeting in a "bountiful" manner. The ministers demanded that he retract, give him until last Monday to withdraw the word "petticoat." When the ministers assembled at Union Baptist Church in weekly session Monday Rev. Mr. Tate was there. Other ministers were on hand also to listen to him say that he greatly regretted that he had used the word "petticoat" in referring to the way Dr. Neal presided. He refused to retract, however, and in a few minutes his name had been stricken from the roll and an order denying him entrance any Baptist pupil. He would make much difference to Rev. Mr. Tate as he has no pastorate, but it cut off a prospective joint debate that he and Dr. W. M. Alexander were to have at Sharon Baptist Church. The ministers did not appear to be very hard hearted after Mr. Tate departed, for they decreed that any time he came before them and apologized his name would be placed back on the roll. A BIRTHDAY RECEPTION Mr. and Mrs. George Brice gave a birthday reception in honor of their daughter, Miss Geneva Brice, at 526 N. Eden street, Monday evening. May 27, 1018, after a beautiful design of roses were presented the guests entered the dining room where a sumptuous repast awaited them. She had a host of friends and received many beautiful presents. RED CROSS ORGANIZED The Lucy Lancy Chapter, American Red Cross, was recently organized at School No. 105, Rogers avenue, near Lexington street.

The officers of the chapter are Eugene Bell, president; Miss Mamie Prayer, secretary; and H. Grafton Brown, treasurer.

Robinson officiated. They plan to give a reception at their future home, 920 Argley avenue, in the near future. The groom is employed as an engineer. "IKE" BANNISTER GETS PRIZE Isaac Clinton Bannister, the hustling agent of the Afro-American, who is known to thousands of Edinburghans, won the second prize in the trustees' declaration contest at Morgan College last Friday night.

J Naylor, received honorable mention. They are students in the preparatory department.

Their final destination is unknown, but it is presumed that they are going to Europe, a number of the men. Baltimore last identified identification cards, thus indicating that their stay at the cantonment would not be long. Baltimore, June 15, 1915. To the People of Baltimore: I take this means of expressing for myself individually and for my most loyal congregation our grateful appreciation for the great assistance given in our effort to reduce the debt on our historic church, which has been, and will ever remain a forum where every question pertaining to the welfare of colored people may get an opportunity of being heard. By your unstinted giving we were able to lay on the altar Eleven Thousand and One Hundred and Seventy-two Dollars ($11,172), with a large number of members an friends yet, to be heard from. That God may prosper you and increase your blessings more and more is our sincere wish. W. SAMPSON BROOKS. Pastor Bethel A. M. E.

NON COLORED ARTILLERY OFFICERS Colored artillerymen may pump shells at the Kaiser "Somewhere in France" after a while, but officers will be white and not colored. The fifty-eight colored officers, who have been in training at Camp Dix, N. J., since the Camp at Fort DesMoines closed in October of last year had the kibosh put on their hopes for becoming officers in the Artillery Corps. After the "Colonel Mississippi Coles" affair chronicled in these columns week before last, speculation was in order as to the disposition of the 58 officers who, detailed at Camp Meade, were insulted, stayed three days, and then ordered back to Camp Dix. The Afro-American hazarded the guess that those officers would be detailed to another camp for training, or sent back to command Infantry regiments. This last guess proved correct. Unofficial but nevertheless authentic reports reached this office early this week that the fifty-eight officers were summoned before the commander at Camp Dix and given their choice of: 3. Returning to their infantry regiment. No questions were allowed, and ten minutes were given one fifty-eight men to make their decision. Very naturally these men and everybody else who has the heart of the 92nd Division at heart are chagrined over the failure of colored officers to win places in command of artillery regiments. It is plain that the fault is not theirs. They were transferred to the artillery without their consent and are now retransferred back to the infantry against their will. While some of the men preferred infantry from the beginning, the majority had taken a lively interest in their work and were making what they thought to be satisfactory progress. With the continued difficulties in the 92nd Division of colored troops which could be met by the Division Command-if he were in full sympathy with the officers and men he commands, the Afro-American is rapidly coming to the point ready arrived at by the New York News and several other newspapers when they believe and state that General Balis unqualified to lead colored troops.

When it is time of the Negro in the war, these lists will value. According to lists made public in the current issues of the Howard University Record and the Tuskegee Institute Student, the first named institution has 229 former students enlisted in some branch of the army or navy, among them 62 officers; the latter nearly an equal number, 228, among them 37 officers. The highest rank of officer is that of captain. The Tuskegee list shows five of her former students to have reached this grade. The Howard Record lists no officer above the rank of First Lieutenant. This brings up the point that the lists are far from being complete. Not every former student who has entered the service has taken the pains to write to his Alma Mater to appraise the school secretary of that fact. It has come to our notice that Captains Charles H. Garvin and Edwin H. Lee, of the Medical Reserve are both former Howard men, and everyone who reads over the list can doubtless suggest other reasons that have been omitted. The encouraging thing about these service lists is that it indicates the intention of school authorities to keep records of students and graduates in the war. When it is time to write the history of the Negro in the war, these lists will prove of greatest value.

It has been known for some time name was under consideration, but man the very last that it was merely a rumored man would be asked to take the poew president takes his office July 1st. I stimulated "57,000 salary and a free h Running true to form the trustees of Howard University enacted another Congregational minister to take the place of Dr. Stephen N. Newman as president of Howard University last Wednesday. The graduate of a Baptist school, Bates College, doctor of philosophy from Boston University, and successful New England Churchman, Rev. Dr. Durkee is the new president. It has been known for some time that Dr. Durkee's name was under consideration, but many alumni hoped to the very last that it was merely a rumor and that time colored man would be asked to take the position. The new president takes his office July 1st. It is reported that he stipulated "$7,000 salary and a free hand" before considering the trustees' offer. If this is true, Rev. Mr. Durkee is the highest paid president Howard has ever had. The present stipend is $4,000. However, this is the very thing that Howard needs—a big man, able to pull the university out of its present rut. To be perfectly frank, in the last four years under President Newman, the school has merely gone forward under the impetus given it by the active and energetic former president, Dr. W. P. Thirkield. Of itself, President Newman's administration merely marked time. How serious a blow this has been for Howard may be attested by the fact that the income of the university remains the same as five years ago, there has been only a nominal increase or students, no extension of university courses worth talking about, and of course, no ne wbuildings. While every large university in the country inaugurated military courses and military training along with its regular work last year, Howd University went to sleep and actually closed its doors last year and this year a month before the regular time set for aduation exercises by the catalogue. This is the situation that the new president faces. The Dr. Booker T. Washington complained that the president Howard and the trustees spent too much time discussing how many square yards of concrete walk had been laid during the year and how many square feet of surface painted, instead of the larger problems of university endowment and expansion. expansion. Perhaps the stipulation of Dr. Durkee that he must have "free hand" is advance notice that he knows what is needed and intends to handle the situation in his own way. President Durkee has our wish that he will make of Howard everything that the largest colored university in the world has a right to be. Over eleven thousand dollars at Bethel A. M. E. Church, over two thousand dollars at Sharon Baptist Church, over one thousand dollars at the Peoples Church—all in one week—puts up a high-water mark in church collections never before equalled in any city.

For years we have had a so-called manual training department connected with the Colored High School of this city. Ever since it has been connected with the High School, it has been merely an appendix rather than an institution of real value and worth. For this reason, few, if any of the graduates have been able to secure positions forth while outside of the teaching profession. Just at this time when young men are being called upon to fill positions requiring mechanical skill, these positions are going begging because of a lack of trained men to fill them. Had this school been pushed to the front as well as the white Polytechnic Institute, our young men might now be doing things worth while. It was the biggest kind of mistake in the first tplace, that these two schools were ever put together and the sooner hey are separated the better it will be for both schools. It is to be hoped that the colored people will take this matter up and petition the School Board to separate the two schools and put both of them on a higher plane. When we remember that the High School is the only institution of so-called higher-learning for the colored people of the State, except Morgan College, and the only one supported by the State or city government, it behooves us to see to it that it fulfills all the functions belonging to a school of that kind. We ought to be satisfied with nothing less. Now that the various church rallies, the Red Cross drive and the Liberty Loans are giving us a breathing spell, let us get to work and put that matter of fifteen hundred dollars or so "over the top" for the Day Nursery. This institution has done an excellent work in the past and its usefulness will be greatly enhanced if those charged with its management can be freed from the responsibility of worrying about the finance with which to carry on the work. Every little bit helps and if everybody will help a little it will be an easy matter to raise the amount needed to meet the present pressing obligations. Let us give quickly and cheerfully. A Tennessee an Answers Pickens Dr. William Pickens, vice president of Morgan College, delivered an address before the colored division of the Maryland Council of Defense on Thursday of last week, in which he contended that the Negro be treated as other men. His subject was "The Kind of Democracy The Negro Ruce Expects," and, among other things he criticized the Tennessee lynchings. An extract from the address was published in last week's Afro-American and the full text in last Sunday's Philadelphia Public Ledger. The publication in the Public Ledger around the ice of a white man, evidently from Tennessee, who wrote a letter of "rebuke" to Dr. Pickens. The "rebuker" signs himself "A leading Philadelphia citizen." The letter sent by the white man is herewith appended, giving his spelling and grammar: "After reading your subject The kind of Democracy the Negro race expects. "No doubt you are colored but you are casting an insult to the Tennessean's. And well do you know you would be severely handled if you were to put such in a Tenn. paper. I read another negro topic about mobs in the southern states yet the man who wrote that never stop to say what the negro did to get mobbed. "The highest ambition of a negro is to write a white wife and well do you know it, which will never be. If a negro is educated that does not change his color he is still dark. Explain your self in the Public Ledger next week. "The Jamaican's are fighting with England but that doesn't say they are as good as a white man. "The negro can be traased from a monkey you know that much. "So lay the dead losses you are still a nigger. (Signed) A leading Philn. citizen. ("F. S.) This no black Republic. Of course, the letter shows that the "rebuker" is an "educated" man of the "superior" race. Dean Pickens gave the following terse comment on the letter that the white man wrote him: "If the good Lord made a hell, it was not done in order to punish such a soul as this. It is punishment enough for such a soul to live with itself." The Day. Nursery. Campaign was opened. Sunday with a service at the Metropolitan M. E. Church at which Mrs. Jennie H. Ross presided.

AVE. SHOOTING CAUSES COMMENT The fatal shooting of a colored man on Pennsylvania avenue by the police las (saturday night) and the severe wounding of another, has aroused a great deal of comment this week. It appears that some colored men were disorderly and the police grabbed one. While dragging him to the call box, some one hit the policeman with a chair. Despite the crowded condition of Pennsylvania avenue at that time, it is said the police began shooting, with the result that one man lay dead and another seriously wounded. The man killed, it is averted by some, was not the man who hit the policeman. A ban has been placed on pedestrians, and any who stop to talk this Saturday may be arrested. Some of the police, it is alleged are gloating over the killing of the man. They look forward to making a harvest in arrests this Saturday night, it is being claimed. Pennsylvania avenue has been what some call an "indicted street" since the recent large inflow from the South and many have been arrested on Saturday nights and charged with loitering. A decade ago the police indiscriminately arrested colored men and women who happened to stop even for conversation. They were invariably fined notwithstanding character witnesses appeared the next morning in a number of instances and attested to the good habits on those taken in Rumor That Brandon Has Confessed Murder Humans have been flying around Baltimore and Annapolis for the past two weeks that the husband of Brandon woman who was murdered in Annapolis some time ago, has confessed. Brandon's husband was at first accused of the crime but later the colored man, John Snowden was charged with killing the woman and later sentenced to hang. He is now in fall at Annapolis awaiting the outcome of an appeal to the Court of Appeals. The Brandon man is said to be in training at Camp Meade and, so the story goes, confessed to one of his comrades that he killed his wife. He is said to have been brought to Annapolis, but was later returned to the camp. While a thorough investigation has failed as yet to prove these rumors there is still a general belief that John Snowden is being made the goat in this case and the real murderer is some one closely connected with the Brandon woman. **GRAND MASTER HONORED** A testimonial dinner in honor of J. P. Evans, grand master of masons was held at Sharp Street church Monday morning of last week. He was presented a set of engrossed set of resolutions. THE AFRO-AMERICAN WEEKLY VIEWS AND COMMENTS The Pastor, members and friends of this great church, here in our city are rejoicing over the most successful ending on last Monday night of their campaign to raise Ten Thousand indebtedness, and all the friends of the church elsewhere are gratified to know that so great was the unparalleled effort that more than eleven thousand lars were saved before the end of the meeting early Tuesday morning. This result is not only most pleasing and encouraging to all the members and friends of Bethel, but has lessons of encouragement and inspiration to all faithful and conscientious workers in the vineyard of the Lord. REV. WILLIAM H. WEAVER, D. D., Contributing Editor BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH'S SUC- CESFUL TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR TALLY. carrying sufficient fuel and suc- to relieve them if the necessity base is not so all important no it is to discover their exact v Rev. W. Sampson Brooks, D. D., the consecrated Pastor of Bethel, was appointed to the charge less than fourteen months ago, and since that time under his wise and intelligent leadership, four thousand dollars have been collected and expended by the church, and with the money raised in this last most successful rally more than twenty five thousand and dollars will have been paid on the mortgage indebtedness, a record that pastor and student may be dusty proud. This record evidences what any thoroughly consecrated minister of the Gospel of Christ, giving his whole time to the work of his ministry, and with confidence in and loyalty to their pastor may do. It should be encouraging and inspiring to every Christian minister, amid all his struggles for success, inasmuch as it is an evidence and an assurance that God's will is to all those who give themselves wholly to the work to which He has called them, and also that a loyal people will give their unstinted support to those who merit their confidence and consecrate themselves worthy of their esteem. But the record made by this church has a lesson of encouragement and virtuous consecrated ministers who serve in the pastoral office, but for all earnest, loyal church members, and particular church congregations as We suspect that it was the personal knowledge which the pastor—leaders and members of this church had of their God, which gave them the strength of mind and will to purpose courage and faith to carry to its most triumphant accomplishment the great result recently achieved. Our heartiest and most sincere congratulations are tendered Dr. Brooks and his dear, devoted people, achievement for God and the church. Such service is due, and will doubtless get its proper recognition, in time by calling such a leader and worker to a wider sphere of usefulness, and to the people of our community and life of his great denomination. We Baltimoreans have peculiar and special pleasure in this great accomplishment not only as it affects our own city and one of the great churches of our community, but because we are workers among our people throughout the country and was put over by a man born in our state and a product of one of our schools. GEOKIAN U BOATS OPERATING OFF THE AMERICAN COAST Doubtless a surprise come to many when on Monday afternoon, of this week they read that German U Boats were not only present along the Atlantic coast, but had been used for maritime sailing craft and torpedoing one or more steam vessels. The fact that these monsters of the sea are now actively engaged in their nefarious business on this side brings the war to our own and we may not be able to expect anything that they are likely to bring to our side. We are engaged in it. Our distances from the hitherto scene of hostilities counts, for little now so far as our being safely out of reach of harm from air or sea raids by the enemy. The feasibility of such attacks upon us is no longer in the realm of conjecture out an assured fact, and it is up to us to be prepared to resist any attacks that make up us, and put out of business those who engage in them. Whether the U Boats are operating from a near by base or whether they are capable of carrying sufficient fuel and supplies to relieve them if the necessity of any base is not so all important now, as it is to discover their exact whereabouts along our coast, capture, destroy or chase them away, and so guard and protect the coast as to keep them away. We may expect that our government will not be long in finding out by thorough search whether they are operating from a near by base or from a home station, and will suit its action accordingly. Whatever may be the purpose of the Germans in sending the U boats to this side the Atlantic whether to retaliate or interfere with the transportation of our troops "over there" or to make us feel unwell we recall some of our ships or destroyers from across the waters to protect our own coast and shipping, or relax some of our efforts in France because of need of defending ourselves here at home—it will fail. We are going to master-Germany by air—and sea and land in this war, because we are in the right—and God is on the side of right. And the American people are now so thoroughly aroused and determined to win the war, that nothing can do them in putting forth every effort everywhere and along with every effort to accomplish the defense. The government need have no doubt that the American people are with it in all its war aims and will back up all its efforts and endeavors, by any and all sacrifices that may be required of them. It was announced at the commencement exercises of Morgan College Thursday night that plans had been formed and approved by which this most excellent institution will enlarge the scope of its work. Under the plans adopted there will be the separation of the college from the college preparatory school and the formalization of an academic school and other changes that will give larger opportunities and increased facilities to the students of the institution. Dean Wm. Pickens who has so efficiently filled his place in the college as dean has been elected vice president of the college, and will give considerable time to the conduct of a country wide campaign, by which the institution's work and needs may be more generally made known. Dean Pickens is admirably adapted to a work being a most valuable and able resource, a speaker, and will no doubt bring to those interested in the thorough education of colored youths the facts and information that will call forth their most liberal support. We can have no other wish for this great institution among us, of which we are all proud, that the new and enlarged plans for its increased usefulness may be carried out, and that the largest success may follow. Our Morgan better known and secure for it many more new friends who may be able to provide more generously for its maintenance and support. 351st FIELD ARTILLERY It is reported that this regiment composed of colored soldiers which has been in training for several months at Camp Mende, has been or will soon be sent elsewhere, and are long will cross "over there" to do its part in helping to get the victory over the Kaiser. We have made the acquaintance of a number of the boys of this regiment and a fine set of fellows they are, and we are confident that if they are sent over there they will give a good account of themselves and the Huns will know it when they are in action. Many of the boys in this regiment are from Pittsburgh and other cities and towns of Pennsylvania. Eultimore has a number of boys who are not conceived of these boys as they have frequently visited our city on leave while at the cantonment, and on special occasion when some patriotic meeting or enterprise was pulled off, was always such as to win for them commendation, and spoke well for their discipline, and showed that they had respect for and were proud of the uniform they wore. Of course none of us care to have our loved ones separated from us, especially when we know that they go to face the great perils of war, nevertheless we willingly give them up for our country's sake—for the sake of truth—righteousness—for the sake of Democracy and liberty, and such is our confidence in their patriotism and loyalty that we feel sure that every mother's son of them will do their duty to them themselves, why it is counted as the American citizens—brave—heroic—couragous soldiers—men fearless and undaunted in upholding the right—reverencing God—loyally serving their countrymen and fighting for humanity. God bless—the 351st Artillery. ELKS ELECT OFFICERS At the regular election of officers of the Monumental Lodge of Elks, the following were elected: Rev. C. G.

I gave them to the boys from home and they nearly went wild, there was plenty of interesting news. We also read a letter from the 15th New York City. I which is over here, I saw them on the 1st of January, 1918 and I haven't seen them since. We also enjoyed the headline picture of some of our boys at Camp Meade. As a whole the boys appreciated the papers very much and a joint thanks and hope will still remain save them as often as possible. We would love to have a personal letter from you. We are having plenty of rain and mud over here now, because it rains nearly every day. I have a nice little piece of poetry written by a boy from our school going to send to your paper as it may be something you can use.

France Mr. Editor of The Afro-American:— I read with great interest the weekly views and comments by our very helpful friend and minister, Dr. W. H. Weaver, on the world's champion riveters and other things of importance to the race. I can readily see that Dr. Weaver reads the sun and I do wish that more of our race would read it, especially the Evening Sun, not for a fighting reason for I see no other way to express reading the Forum at April 30th the closest time, but for what one might have learned from the boosts and knocks that have appeared in this paper this long time. This affair was all about a colored woman who was called down by a white one for getting too close to her. There have been some wonderful accounts in the paper and our people at least the most of them should have not missed the opportunity of reading them. Now someone has decided to knock a blow in with an account on the riveters, by saying that the Negro must remember that if it was the white man that enslaved him, it was the white man that freed him and made him an American citizen, and that if he, the white man, has treated him unjustly at times, it was the white man who educated him and gave him all the opportunities he has; that while there is much race prejudice which is not all the fault of the whites, meaning that of the whites) for if not all the fault of the whites I would like to know whose faults it is; the soft respecting, well behaved colored folks have a host of sincere friends and well-wishers among the white fellow citizens as has been shown by the recent discussion in the Forum. Now for my part in the matter I do not think this a time for any kind of a discussion except the war which we must discuss and Christianity which ought to head all or it, but I will say this that I would like to know who had a better right not to enslave us but to educate us and give us all the opportunities we have other than the white man. Now the way I feel about anything that is done that is wrong I blame only the doer not the race no matter what race, and while I am not an educator nor even a teacher or leader of any people or body of people, I think every good thinking, broad-minded citizen will agree with me. I want also to say that one of our female members of the race made such a mistake in writing an article to the Sun concerning the way we act about color these days which was very true every word, but I think she would have been doing more good or service if there was any done, by putting or having the account put in one of our own papers as the matter is one of the many that must be settled by our own race of people, among themselves, with the help of God. There is no other way. All of our problems cannot be settled by the white man, we must learn. PYTHIANS AT CHURCH The annual memorial session of the Knights of Pythias was held at Bethol A. M. E.

Wallace Hamilton of the Delinester gives six causes of Diarrhea in summer, the mother's bugaboo. He says "Diarrhea requires skilled medical attention, patient and devoted nursing, and a strict observance of the doctor's instructions. At the first distress signal from nature to you, don't delay calling in the doctor. In most instances, diarrhea occurring in the summer is due to such factors as: 1. Inherent and unsuitable food. 2. Overfeeding—giving more food than the child can digest. 4. Too frequent feeding—so that the digestion gets no rest. 5. Night feeding and eating between meals. 6. The child's digestion not in condition to digest what ordinarily would have been proper. This may be due to (a) Constipation. (b) Too little drinking water. (c) Exposure to sun. (d) Too hotly eating. (e) Loss of sleep. Contrary to popular notion, the cutting of teeth very rarely causes diarrhea. Giving indigestible or insufficiently cooked foods, or fruits and vegetables that are stale and unsuited to the child's age, causes sudden and often dangerous diarrhea in older children. Preoenting Diarrhea. It is easier to prevent diarrhea than to cure it. To prevent it baby should have clean food, regular hours for feeding, cool, boiled water to drink, daily bath, plenty of fresh air, unbound exercise, regular hours for sleep. Should not have soothing sirups, pacifiers or teething rings, light hands, eyes exposed to sunshine, night feedings. To Treat A Sick Child. Prompt treatment at the very beginning of an attack of diarrhea is worth more than many days' treatment later. At the very onset of loose bowel movements: 1. Stop all food. 2. Give a generous dose of castor oil. 3. Wash out the bowels. 4. Call the doctor at once. 5. Keep the child in bed. 6. Give cool, boiled water frequently. 7. Don't experiment with patent medicines or home remedies suggested by well-meant neighbors. What the Doctor Says About Prickly Heat. What the doctor also says about Prickly heat on the baby might also be of help to the young mother. May was a warm month and the baby who was kept too warm suffered greatly. I had read this article in the Delineator and wished that every mother could read it also. One mother I know that has a three months old baby was in quite a dilemma, and as she dressed her baby one morning said to me "just look how plumply my baby's face and neck is and his back is in the same condition." "I think," I replied "that you have the baby dressed too warm. If I had my way I would take some of those things off of him." "But I am afraid he will take cold if I do," she answered. "Well, I said" how would you like to be to wrap up in all those things a day like today? It seems to me that he will not only break out with the heat but will catch cold quicker if he should cool off with all those clothes on them he would with only part of them. Then I told her of this article and she said "Well I will try it and see if it helps any." When I saw the baby the next morning there was no sign of the pimples and the baby was resting comfortably in his crib. Never again said the mother will I be so foolish. He tells us that the difference between prickly heat and measles is that it occurs on the part of the body—most abundantly—which is confined to where the clothing retains the precipitation, and occurs exclusively in hot weather, whereas measles, liberty measles and scarlet fever are prevalent in winter months. For Prickly Heat. nothing is more trying to a baby's leaves in the hot summer than the irritation from prickly heat, and every care should be given to afford the little one prompt relief. It is usually caused from keeping the baby too warmly clothed. During the hot weather baby should wear only a maplin, a light-weight abdominal band and a thin muslin slip. Give the baby one tub-bath every day, and on very warm days two to four sponge baths, using cool water with a tablespoonful of alcohol added to it. Don't use oils, salts or any soap on a baby with heat-rash. Give a bath in which bicarbonate of soda has been dissolved. One tablespoonful of soda to a gallon of water is sufficient. A salt bath, with the same amount of sea salt or common table salt, is sometimes be found helpfully. When the heat-rash is accompanied by rashiness and chafing give a daily oatmeal bath to prepare an oatmeal bath, sow one oatmeal into a cheese-cloth bag. Place this in the baby's bathtub in a small amount of hot water for one-half hour before bathing time. When it is time to give the bath add sufficient hot water to give a temperature of ninety-five degrees. Allow the baby to remain in this bath for five or ten minutes. A starch bath may be given in the same manner and for the same purpose. For this add one-half cupful of powdered laundry starch to the water and stir until the mixture of allaying the irritation. It is made by adding a cupful of bran to two gallons of water at ninety-five degrees temperature. Stir thoroughly into the water either the starch or bran. All these baths are soothing and grateful to a baby when he has heat-rash, chafing, hives or insect bites. Often one will do good when the others do not. Always dry carefully the creases of the skin under the arms, at the neck, groin and about the genitals. Dry without rubbing. Dust all over the body with a reliable powder, paying particular attention to the folds and creases of the skin. Dust away any excess of powder in the groin, as it is likely to get wet, cake, and cause irritation. Use mittens, baby mitts, or pin the sleeves to the mattress to avoid scratching. This is an important point to remember in the treatment of prickly heat. Remedies For Hives. The commonest cause of hives or nettle rash is indigestion, produced by the child's eating something which does not agree with it. Whatever the cause, the treatment that is most effective is to stop all articles of food likely to cause the trouble, put the child on a skin-milk diet for two days, give plenty of water to drink, and clear out the bowels thoroughly. To allay the itching a soda or catmeal bath may be given once or twice daily, and the spots dabbed with absorbent cotton wet with equal parts of vinegar and water. When hives tend to recur frequently, search for and remove the cause. In this regard be particularly careful to eliminate all sugar from the diet. Baby's Summer Needs. Mariann Wheeler in The People's Home Journal gives us an idea of baby's summer needs. She especially warns young mothers about the careful nursing of the baby, knowing that the mother who nurses her baby, lessens the dangers of diseases that come with the heated term, and even under these favorable conditions she urges care so as to not overtax the baby's stomach and good digestion, as ver feeding overworks the little stomach and causes the very things that it is essential to avoid, and it is also not right to let the feeding hour go by as baby-becomes so ravenously hungry that he takes more than is good for him. Feed the baby with absolute regularity once every three hours the feeding limit twenty baby that really demands the most careful attention, as in mixed diet loss danger ofsum disorders. She advocates milk diet not only for babies but for older children, and puts especial emphasis upon the care of the milk. When it is delivered it should be immediately put away in a cool place; and not allowed to stand on the door-step or sit in the vestibule, as it will soon change good milk into a condition that will be poisonous to an infant. In preparing baby's food be sure that all utensils are absolutely clean, and used only for baby. After the food is prepared scour all the utensils, boll them and, when put away cover with a clean towel or cloth. In Hot Weather. The sketch given below by Mariana Wheeler on foods to avoid in hot weather for the baby may help you or some one else you know to have a healthy baby and avoid the many discussions that so many babies have to fight every summer. --- Grauels, cereals and broths must be given when freshly prepared and kept on ice between feedings. Particularly bad are decayed fruits, soda water, cheap ice cream in the form of cones and sandwiches. If ice-cream is given it should be home-made, and from the purest milk or cream. Underripe and overripe汁 are as bad as decayed fruit. it is safest way to cook all fruit or children under two years of age. Heavy, heat-producing foods are better omitted during the hot months. The lighter cereals, and broths from chicken and mutton—from which every particle of fat has been removed and which have been made from perfectly fresh meat—are suitable foods. Fresh eggs are also good summer food for babies that have passed their first year. Give one egg at a time. If it cannot be taken soft, cooked or coddled, whip it up lightly in the milk of two or three feedings. Thus it will be divided into portions. While the proper preparation and administration of food is most important, there are other things which contribute to the baby's health and comfort during a hot summer. One of these is proper clothing. Nature requires a certain degree of bodily heat to aid digestion. When the temperature of the body falls far below the normal degree or goes much above it, digestion is impaired for the time being. During the summer the baby's clothing should be comfortably light; but I would advise a ribbed band of cotton with one-fourth wool, for if the vital organs are protected and kept warm the digestion is better. The shirt may be of cotton; but it is not necessary on very hot days. If the feet are cold, baby should wear stockings and little booties. Temperature Of The Summer Bath. A tub bath in the morning is healthful and invigorating; but it should not be cold. Have the temperature of the water about 98 degrees, which is near the temperature of the body. A cold bath is more or less heating in the after effects. A tepid sponge bath before putting baby to bed for the night is very soothing and baby will sleep much better for it. If a child is feverish or has heat rash, or hives—which is a sign of indigestion—sponge him with water in which bicuronate-of-soda has been dissolved and do not wipe the skin dry. For this bath use a pint of tepid water with a heaping teaspoonful of the soda. If there is no soda at hand, a small lump of starch may be used instead—just enough to make the water look cloudy. Be as careful in summer to shield baby from drafts as you would be in winter. A FEW HELPS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. CODDLED EGGS Eggs should be very soft and evenly cooked through. To accomplish this, place a saucepan of water over a hot fire. As soon as it comes to a boil, remove it from the stove and drop the egg into the hot water. Let it remain there for five minutes, then remove and break the egg into a cup or saucer and season with very salt. Or, put in a tiny sauna half a coffee cupful of milk and place on the fire. Then the milk is sealing hot, break the egg into the milk. If the milk does not cover the egg baste it with the hot milk. It should cook about three minutes, then pour egg and milk on a piece of toast and season with a little salt. WHEN COOKING PEAS "Shell the peas and put in a covered bowl while you boil the pods for an hour. Strain the pods and use the water in which to cook the peas. An extra sweetness and richness is obtained in this way, and the water makes excellent soup for lunchon" says R. H. W. in Mother's Magazine. BEETS WILL NOT BLEED If you sing the roots immediately upon digging, up the beet. This prevents bleeding and conserves the flavor and dark red color" says A. C. D. in Mother's Magazine. TO KEEP HEATER FROM RUST Placing a small quantity of lime (quarter peck will do) in an old receptacle and setting it on the grate of the heater in the cellar will keep it from rusting while not in use during the summer months.

TO GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Sooby Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food and stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasap. Quinasap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstuff or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you. Write to Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 130th street, New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper. Advt. The Spirit of 18 The World Cry Food! Cultivate the Soil MME.
