Mrs. Carrie Moore Taylor, the far famed Contralto, will sing. Dr. J. T. Hill will sing Randigers, "Save Me, O God." Those who have not heard him, hear him Sunday. Big Baptizing. The Mt. Zion Baptist church is one of the old land marks of the city and is situated in the place where the greatest good can be done. About a year ago, internal strife shook the old church and its very existence was a question, even in the minds of those who wished otherwise. Two-thirds of the membership left the church. Dr. Hill, the former pastor, had closed his appointments and came to Los Angeles just in time to be thrown back into harness, to save the institution, which was the idol of his heart. It was indeed sad, when men and women would begin to tell J. T. Hill, A. B. A. M. B. D., Pastor of the Church. J. T. Hill, A. B. A. M. B. D. Pastor of the Church. the story of the great strife, to see them break down, hang upon the neck and shoulders of their former pastor, and beg him to come to them and save their church from utter ruin. The situation was dark, and the Holy Spirit was needed to give light and guidance. The call was given, and accepted. Dr. Hill beginning his work on the first Sunday in June, 1914. Peace and harmony were restored, men and women were born into the kingdom, others in great numbers were reclaimed and the work generally began to show signs of great progress. Within 12 months we have almost reached the place where we once were in numbers and influence, and the church with its Geo. W. Randolph, Chairman of Board of Deacons. many auxilliaries touches human life and conditions along all lines. The progress of which we have spoken is not due to the efforts of the pastor alone, for he is surrounded by a force of faithful men and women who in many in- stances have made great sacrifice of time and money to make the work a success. The deacon board is a unit, possessing a one-ness of mind seldom seen in men. The members of the board are G. W. Randolph, A. Caviness, F. K. Polk, W. M. H. Richardson, Jas. Robinson, Johnson Shells, Nelson Albritton. The trustee board has been a great held to the progress and general uplift of the church by attending to business in a real business like way. Bro. W. W. Gay is chairman of this board and the other four members are T. A. Torrence, M. D. Fredia, M. P. Wright and Frank Douglas. Each man was chosen on account of the business exemplified by him. The Sunday school is well regulated with a strong staff of teachers, and a host of eager students. Winston W. Gay, supt.; M. R. Caviness, ast. supt.; M. R. Torrence, secy.; Sister Idell Albritton, asst. secy.; Priscilla Johnson, treas.

Mrs. Shells and Patrick are active workers in this organization. The Literary Society, known as the "Get Together Club," on account of the most excellent programs rendered, has been styled Mrs. Annie E. Weler, President of the Parents' Association. one among the most helpful for our young men and women. Prof. C. A. Biggers is at the head of this society and his very name is a guarantee of success and efficiency. He is also the president of the only Negro business college on this side of the Rockies. The church has made arrangements with Prof. Biggers to make special discount to all students recommended by the pastor of Mt. Zion. Prof. Biggers is also at the head of the employment bureau of the church; and those seeking employment would do well to visit Mt. Zion and have a talk with him, or phone Main 2662.

Torrence is spoken of as one of the best choirs in the west. In order to avoid different colors of dress, etc., the choir voted to dress uniformly, and each Sunday the stand is filled with singers that help to bring the minds of the congregation to a oneness by the oneness of dress. We have individual singers that rank among the best in the entire country. Among them, Miss Winston W. Gay, Chairman of Board of Trustees and Supt. of Sunday School. Minnie Albritton and Mrs. Ella Hughley, Mrs. T. A. Torrence, one of the recent developments, ranks easily with any of the local choir soloists. We recently planned for a brotherhood, and the plan is to make it a help to men in every way, physically, mentally and spiritually. Mr. C. B. Dones is at the head of this organization. Mt. Zion Baptist Church, locat Third Street. A plain church for The Parents Association (undenominational) is one of the young organizations of the church, but already the neighborhood feels its power. Some of the best speakers in the city have delivered addresses to the fathers and mothers, advising as to the rearing of children. Sister A. E. Weber, who is an ardent worker, a loyal christian and a loving mother, is at the head of this organization, and she presides with becoming modesty and dignity. Mr. J. H. Johnson, Mrs. Hattie Wilkerson, Mrs. L. B. Patrick and Geo. W. Randolph are officers in this association. The B. Y. P.

This society arranges to give some- thing each week when sick and fifty dollars at death. It pays only $30.00 now at death but as the number of members increases the death claim will be $50.00.

Come and hear these soloists backed by a strong vested choir. The prayer meetings are under the supervision of Deacon A. A. Caviness. The plan of these meetings this year will be that different Wednesday nights will be taken up by different auxiliaries. We have inaugurated a Spanish and Mexican department under Rev.

ORIGINAL --- Sunday Celebration Marked New Era Church History NOTABLE EXCERCISES IN COMMEMORATION OF HEROIC DEAD HELD AT MOUNT ZION BAPTIST CHURCH LAST SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

President of the Literary Society head of business college and is in charge of Employment Bureau. CALIFORNIA INVITES THE WORLD By Prof. Charles Alexander On the western edge of the North American Continent, lashed by the restles waves of the great Pacific Ocean on one side and by an immense island-dotted bay almost surrounding it on the other, in a remarkably congenial climate, a vertiable garden-spot of enchanting loveliness, is located San Francisco, the city of hills. In the most favored section of this city has been planted the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. A visit to this Exposition is calculated to broaden the minds of visitors, creating greater social sympathies among them, harmonizing geographical and international view points and rendering it easy to realize the brotherhood among men. It would he a serious misfortune to the Colored people of the United States if they should for any reason be deterred from visiting this magnificent Exposition; and especially on account of the misleading and erroneous report circulated recently that the attitude of the citizens of San Francisco and the Exposition is unfriendly, hostile and antagonistic toward them. Knowing the sensitive nature of our people and realizing how easy it is to create the timorus spirit among them on questions of discrimination and prejudice. I have thought it wise to send forth this frank statement concerning the situation here in San Francisco. Nearly everywhere in this country questions of segregation discrimination and prejudice are engrossing the attention of leaders, and I would say our people embarassment and humiliation wherever it is possible. To those who have decided to visit the Exposition and to those who have not yet fully contemplated that pleasure, be it understood: That San Francisco is a big cosmopolitan city. A city made up of all sorts and conditions of men. It is more liberal in sentiment, and less provincial in racial matters than either Chicago or New York. Representatives of a great number of races are seen daily on the streets. Little racial antipathy or animosity is observable in the conduct of the people in public places, notwithstanding the incongruous, dissimilar and heterogeneous character of the population. Indeed, San Francisco, is singularly free from racial friction as compared with other cities. BY S. B. CARR. THEPIONEER SETTLER DO YOU USE The City Light? If not, Why not? It is your plant.

Whether we be black as a crow, or whether we are seven-eighths white, there is no race in the history of the world that has had so many obstacles and difficulties to confront as our race has. The Jap, the Chinaman, and even the Indian have practically no barriers against them. It matters not how low or ignorant, they are accorded a man's chance, while the colored man, however intelligent and refined he may be, yet he is discriminated against on or at every turn. So now Mr. Business man clean up and treat your business right and you will have no trouble in getting customers and holding them, and let us build up our own race. What I have said is true, but some times its "crushed to earth but will rise again." Some of the Reasons Why. We hear much these days about colored people not patronizing colored enterprises. As this is a barbed wire fence you have to be on one side or the other. So I spent a day visiting places operated, owned and controlled by colored people, and this is what I found. floors not swept, clerks sitting down, windows dirty, dust on the goods, no advertising in the papers or otherwise; subscribing for no colored papers, and willing and ready to tell you why advertising does not pay, and clerks fail to get up if they think you do not want to buy something, but will begin to tell you what they did "back East." And some of the restaurants look more like a glue factory than do like a place in which to eat; some of the barber shop floors look more like a garage than anything else, and when they cut a head of hair they sweep it under the chair to make you think they are doing business, and if you don't watch them they will use a towel on three or four customers before they change it, and in some of the printing offices if they make mistakes they want you to pay just the same, because they are colored. And these are a few of the many reasons why they do not patronize your business as they should. See how polite the Jew is; see how the Jap cleans up; notice the Chinaman's decorations; watch the Italian rub his fruit; and see how the colored man keeps the other man's place of business clean. The fact of the matter is that many colored business men have neither kept pace with the broadening and discriminating tastes of the colored customers, nor with the specialized efforts of their white competitors. It is a far cry from sentiment to business. This is an age of specialized selling methods, and the colored merchant must fall in or fall out. So fall in and not out. But what can you expect when your own leaders will not help. Some weeks ago a preacher was trying to get every member of his church to subscribe for a paper of another race; yet he lives on you.

It is only three cents per week. The Y. M. A. had a good show Friday at the auditorium of the Y. M. C. A., but we do not believe it is the thing to do as it was done by some of the churches. They advertised in them. I do not think that the church of God ought to advertise a minstrel and vaudeville show in a case of that kind. Think about "What would Jesus do". James Williams died in Los Angeles Monday at 7 a.m. He came here many years ago from Atlanta, Ga.; he was born in South Carolina in 1861-54 years ago. He roomed at 36 E, Colorado street, and for a long time did janitor work in this city; he was taken sick some weeks ago and he went to Los Angeles in search of health, but he never gaied it. He was a faithful Christian and he died in the faith. He had a beautiful home on S, Raymond, which he sold a few myths ago to Mr. E. W. Brackett. He is survived by a mother and son, but both are in the E4st: he was buried Thursday afternoon. They did not tender him a banquet, Mr. W. E. Easton on his return We believe that Los Angeles county should have given Mr. Wood, Mr. Tyler, Ceruti and H. E. MacBeth recognition for their services rendered, as these gentlemen do much to keep the colored people on the map in California. I believe honor should be given to whom honor is due. But, on the contrary, our race is to the opposite, for they have been taught for generations to mistrust one another No matter what might be his ability, like Banquo's ghost, this feeling will not go down. Just remember what they tried to do to Booker T. Washington, even a 2nd preacher in the country knocked him. Some one has said that Mrs. Eloise Bibb Thompson writes the Jim Crow section of the Tribune I believe that her writing has done more good toward the advancement than all the resolutions that have been passed by the colored people in Los Angeles since aunt Biddie Mason came from Hancock county, Georgia. The same thing has been said about the secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who everybody knows, has made good, so let us our duty as we see it, for chief Sams will have his following as well as Booker T. Washington. I remember you can't make a success unless you make enemies. ```markdown ``` Prominent Church Worker and President of the Baptist S. S. Convention.

Cal., June 3rd, 1015.—The next meeting of the federation will be held June 20th, 1915 with the B. Y. P. U. of the First Baptist church, Venice, Cal. I hope you will notice the importance of this meeting, it being our last session before the convention convenes. The B. Y. P. U. at Venice is making a strenuous effort to raise $100 to donate to the church when their new edifice is begun, and for that reason the president of that Union has prevailed upon me to secure the co-operation of all the unions on the date of our next meeting. At our last meeting a motion prevailed to the effect that the entire contribution on that date be given to the Venice B. Y. P. U. Therefore let us come prepared to gladden the hearts of those few struggling people by lifting at least a part of the load from their shoulders. One of the Los Angeles ministers will preach their rally sermon. A mixed programme composed of numbers representing the federation as well as the local union will be presented, and free luncheon will be served to visitors. This will truly be a day of thanksgiving, being a continuous service from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Hoping you will lend your assistances individually and collectively, I am, yours, for Christian uplift. J. ALLEN REESE, President B. Y. P. U. Federation Years have passed and now we see him, On him's turned the strongest light; Every race is represented— Black, brown, yellow, red and white; And they call him now a problem, Yes, a problem yet unsolved. For there's One not been consulted And in it He is involved. There's a rise and fall of nations But dispute it if you can. There is just one God and Father And the brotherhood of man Ten tenths blood of pure Caucasian This it takes to make you white. But one drop of Negro blood is, Just the same, as black as night. Black, brown, yellow, red and white; And they call him now a problem, Yes, a problem yet unsolved. For there's One not been consulted And in it He is involved. There's a rise and fall of nations But dispute it if you can. There is just one God and Father And the brotherhood of man Ten tenths blood of pure Caucasian This it takes to make you white. But one drop of Negro blood is, Just the same, as black as night. For this stamp was put upon him And so let it thus remain For what is the use contending? All contention is in vain It is said ten million Negroes On this firm, free land doth stand God inspires them to mount upward Though chains bind both foot and hand, Read his crime in boldest letters Negro, and no question then And we own him, our heads bowing Grieved to know we have such men; On the other hand in turning We can point with pride to those Who thought it worth while in striving And to fame and honor rose Dumas, known as the French novelist, He his Negro blood could trace; Tanner, artist known so widely, Who has won himself a place; Yes, and there's the "Black Napoleon, Brave Toussaint L'Overture And the great Edmonia Lewis, Sculptress, whose work will endure. And we claim E. Coolerige Taylor, Dunbar, though he's dead, still lives; Booker Washington we all know For his race, his life doth live, Bishop Grant in sermons, lectures, Dubois, John H. Jackson, true Chestnut, Vernon, trace e'en Poushkin, Browning, many others too. Great Rome had her gladiators And of them was very proud; We care nothing for the prize-ring, But since it has been allowed Why not then applaud the winner? Whether white or dusky man? The survival of the fittest It is the rule and it will stand. This would be a grander nation With the goodness that's innate, It would be a perfect haven But the prejudice too great There are friends who say come, onward! Join us in life's great combat; Though your skin be dark, what matter? You're a man e'en for all that. And we're using every effort To make good where e'er we trod, One hand with the flag a waving And the other stretched to God. [Copyr] WESLEY CHAPEL Corner Eighth and San Julian Rev. Wesley E.

Peace! Prosperity! Union! Now that the city campaign is over, let us all get together with that great harmony meeting for a united stand for the things that go to make a greater progress all along the line. The people can go on in the evened tenor of their way and get ready for the next battle which comes about October 25th. THE RESULT The campagin just closed which resulted in the election of Mr. Sebastian to serve as mayor for this city for the ensuing year in many ways was the most remarkable and sensational one ever conducted in this city and after the result has been known, although we were not with the victor, as good citizens, we must now bow in humble acquiescence to the verdict of the majority. The majority of four thousand old, will indicate that the colored voters 75 per cent of whom gave the chief a loyal support, should have great credit for his election and certainly should receive at the hands of his administration, the fullest recognition. The Eagle has no regrets for our support of Mr. Whiffen and are sure that we would have received from him the fullest recognition in the event of his election and we now trust that the leaders who on various pleas, kept the majority of the colored votes in line for the chief, will make good with a greater recognition for the colored citizens than we have ever had before. DISTINGUISHED C. M. E. CHURCHMAN, REV. DR. S. L. HARRIS Joins the Silent Majority on the other side. Hundreds of Sorrowing Friends pay Last Homage of Respect. Sunday afternoon the sad and tragic news was flashed throughout the city that Dr. S. L. Harris, the former popular pastor of the Newton Street Phillips Chapel, C. M. E. Church was no more, that he had gone to join the silent majority on the other side. At first the news was unbelievable for just a week ago, Dr. Harris charge—leading men and women had closed a Revival ta his old to take a higher stand in Christian living. But today all that is mortal of this distinct wished churchman who planted the Banner of Colored Methodism here in the farthest Pacific Southeast is no more. Yes our Friend, Brother and Co-Laborer in the minisury THE the Los Angeles Ministers. Federation assembled in Solemn conclave, to pay the last sad Rites to one of their number who had been called from labor to reward, long before the hour for the funeral services to begin, Phillip Chapel was crowded with sorrowing friends who came to pay tribute to the Sainted dead. The remains having laid in state and was viewed by hundreds. At 1:30 Presiding Elder Jas. A. Stout, of C. M. E. Church of the Los Angeles District opened the services in which he paid a tender tribute to the memory of his fallen associate as a great preacher, a devoted husband, a loving father, a good citizen, a loyal churchman. The fountains of sorrow were broken as the choir sang "Servant of God Well Done" and Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson read the Scripture "lesson from the ninetieth Psalms with E. Edwards, of the Second A. M. E. Church offered a fervent prayer. The choir chanted "Asleep in Jesus" which was followed the reading of Resolutions from the Ministers Inter-denominational Federation, by Prof. A. J. Williams. Resolutions of Condolence from the Baptist Pastors Union were read by Rev. Dr. W.H. Tilman of St. Paul Baptist Church, then followed the Resolutions from the various auxillaries of the Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church. The Board of Stewards, Sunday School, Epworth League and choir. Mr. and Mrs. John Hall sang sweetly the duet "Death is only a Dream". Dr. James A. Stout read a Resolution of Condolence from Sunday School and Epworth League Conventions, which are in session at El Centro. Rev. Dr. N. P. Greggs, of First A. M. E. Church read the Obituary on the life and character of the deceased. The Rev. O. T. Wormath of Long View, Texas, an associate of the late Dr. Harris, paid a fitting tribute to the memory of the deceased in which he eulogized him as a Prince in Israel. The funeral oration was delivered by Rev. J. R. Rector, Pastor of Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church, Santa Monica, from the words "O Death Where is thy Sting!" Dr. E. W. Kinchen of the Wesely Chapel M. E. Church, a personal friend of the deceased spoke tenderly of their relations as Co-Laborers together in the Master's Vinyard. Rev. A. C. Williams sang with wonderful effect "My Saviour first All". The closing remark by Dr. Stout as the choir softly chanted "Shall we gather at the River". Hundreds of sorrowing friends passed the Bearier and took the last look in to the face of the deceased, after which the funeral cortage, was formed and wended its way to the beautiful Rosedale Cemetary, where all that was mortal of the Late Rev. Dr. S. L. Harris, was consigned to mother earth beneath a bank of flowers. The tender tokens of loving friends to await the triumphet Call in the Resurrection Morn.

California Invites The World * Continued from Page 1 On the Exposition grounds, the most generous’ and cordial spirit prevails among the, visitors and natives; and here one sees for hirself the gathering together of many strange peoples, arrayed in picturesque garbs, speaking un- familiar languages and betraying peculiar traits of character. This wonderful sight inspires the be- lief that the time is not remote when universal peace will be real- ized, notwithstanding the terible conflict now raging in Europe. The races, in order to reach some common ground, in order to arrive at some mutual understand- ing, must come together in this fashion, confer and get acquaint- ed with each other, and this Ex- position is performing the benefi- cent mission of introducing the representatives of various races to each on a larger scale than has ever been done before. Now as to accomodations for Colored people in San Francisco. It is not true that our people are discriminated against as has been stated in the Eastern newspapers. Let alt:who will, come, and you will be given a hearty welcome. First class accomodations at re- asonable rates can be secured in all parts of the city. If any-of our readers contemplate the ‘trip to the Exposition it would be well to write to Prof. Charles Alexand- er, 1299 Hyde Street, San Fran- cisco, California, for literature and full information. He is pre- pared to Rise all questions re- lating to the Exposition and ac- commodations. Our educators and leaders ev- display of ‘skill: and genius‘ of the world. The educational value of this. Exposition is inestimable The arrangement of the spacious pal- aces in which the exhibits are in- stalled and the tower of Jewels, scintillating day and night with a wealth of unsurpasing beauty, furnishes a feast for the mind and soul as helpful and inspiring as anything that has ever happened in the history of our country. anes Ocean Park, Santa Monica . Rev. W, A. Carter of Seattle, Wash,, was a visitor to the beach Sunday. The Rev. called on Bro. Eaesly and family, who were mem- bers of his church in the northern city. . The Eastern Star of Santa Mon- ica entertained with a program on Friday evening, at the residence of Mra. 8, A.. Wright, on Sixth near Santa Monica boulevard. Miss Viola Hammond, a charm- ing young lady, niece of Mre, J. A. Trimble, is spending some time with her aunt on Broadway ave., Venice. Mr, E. Reese has purchased the residence at 646 San Juan‘avenue, a 5-room bungalew, and offers it for rent ata very reasonable figure J. P. Mason, who for some time has resided in Santa Monica is now at Monrovia. Much to his regret Mi, Mason’s health forced him from the beach, Ocean View lodg No, 15 K. of P, have elected Sir Knights D, B. Sheffield and Walter McNeal to represent it at the grand lodge to be held at Riverside. Mre,, Jennie Reese is in Los An- geles spending a while with her daughter, Mrs. Fanny Adams, Mr. Hy Gadeon and Miss Henri- etta Heron of El Paso, Texas, were united in marriage by Rev. An- derson, at the residence of Mr. J. A. Trimble on May 15,1915. Mise Heron made avery beautiful bride, as smiles of felicity crept across her cheerful visage. Mr, and Mrs. Gadson left for San Diego and from there to San Francisco, then back to Venice to reside On last Sunday Rev, J, D, Gor. don, his congregation, choir and their brass band were met at [Venice by Mesere, Sercey, Brown ‘Nichols and J, Reese, and escorted to the home of Mrs, Middlebrooke, where in her rear yard, under the trees loaded with fruit, a table 35 feet long bad been dressed especial- ly for the guests, the occasion be- ing rally No. 1 of the First Baptist church, Mrs. 8. L, Niehols ic captain of this club, and was host. ess to this mass of bumanity that came to encourage and advance the Venice church. Rev. Gordon preached from Rev. second chapter, 1-14 verse. Aud indeed the eermon was a neat one. The choir sang, the band played and the friends of the chureb placed upon the table $40.06 as an appreciation of the Christian treat- ment received at the hands of Mrs. Nichole and her corps of workers. It is with delight that we berald the news that a certain club in Venice has dissolved, We appre- ciate the fact that the former club membership have found no virtue in “turning tricks” when their val- uable ;time could be applied at study, or for financial gain. Let those whose ambition is to bea champion whist player press for- ward, and the Venice population will move onward, turning time into dollars. At 50 years of age who will be the succesful com- petitor? Mr. Heard’s home in Sante Monica was destroyed by fire on Wednesday. It was impossible to learn the extent of her loss.

MISS LORENZA JORDAN In the city of Los Angeles as representatives in the schools and academies we have a jew young men and women of whom we are wont to boast, and to predict for them futures that wil! redound to the glory and honor of the race, and ‘conspicuous among them is seventeen-year-old Loren= za Jordan Miss Jordan is not a stranger to the general public, but this is her first. appearance in recital. She is a young girl with rare abil- ity and a musical genius. Those who have heard her perform on the piano on less conspicuous oc- casions will want to hear her in this, her first piano recital. In the L. A. High school, where she is a student, she has attracted close attention of teachers and pu- pils as one of the best music stu- dents in the school. This week her original composition attract- ed attention at the Harmony con- cert at the school Tuesday, she heing the only Colored student on the program. Because of her push and pluck Miss Jordan is waging her way: ‘Hier plans for entering the Bos- ‘ton Conservatory are already laid, and we predict that this road will lead to Berlin. ‘Those who avail themselves of the opportunity of attending “the Jordan piano recitay” will not only help and encourage a young girl of the race. who is making the fight, but every young boy and girl with the same or similar am- bition. Miss Jordan will be assisted by Miss Minnie Albritton as soloist and Mrs. G. L. Williams as dra- matic reader. Don't forget that the concert is June 29 at First A. M. E. church.

There is an old saying “If a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon, or make a better mouse trap than his neighbor, though his hut be in the forest, the world will make a beaten path to his door’. This statement Holds good in reference to the great Memorial Day Ser- vices on last Sunday afternoon in old Dreamland Rink on East fil- teenth and Central Avenue, where several hundreds of the most rep- resentative race men and women assembled to pay honor to the na- tions heroie dead and enjoy an jexcellent program of music, song and orations. | The principle address of this occasion was delivered by Com- rade A. C. Shafer, a Grand Army Veteran and Prof. W. E. Easton, who paidsan eloquent tribute to the Black Heroes. The famous Hall California Jubilee Singers enlivened the occasion with many of their popular vocal sglections. It is hoped. that on the second Sunday evening that these sweet voiced singers will give a sacred concert and Dr. MgPherson will give his famous war lecture on the Daring Charge of the Black Regi- ment at San Juan Hill. During the week a large number of both white and colored people have been profited attendants at the old time revival meetings that have been in progress nightly in the Rink, where Dr. J. Gordon MePherson has been preaching the most powerful sefmons of his life A big Saturday night meet- ing is planned with special illus- trated songs. “Where is my Wandering Boy”. Beautiful ste- reopticon views with use of a strong lantern will illustrate the song. Dr. McPherson will preach the “Gamblers Sermon” on the deck of cards.
