DISCRIMINATION ALONG COLOR LINE Dr. N. P. Greggs Bids Farewell at Reception MRS. S. SHORE'S SUCGESS A LEADER OVATION GIVEN TO DR. N. P. GREGGS AT FAREWELL RECEPTION GIVEN IN HIS HONOR THURSDAY EVENING. The Eighth and Towne street church was filled to its main floor capacity on Tuesday evening with representative citizens of all class who came out to the reception in honor of Dr. N. P. Greggs and wife, who in a short time will leave our city to other fields of labor. It was a crowd that were intent upon showing their appreciation to a man who had by a short residence in their midst, by his sterling worth had endeared himself to the people who by spontaneous applause at each mention of his name voiced that appreciation. There was a splendid program arranged consisting of anthems by the choir and vocal and instrument solos, interspersed by five minute addresses by P. W. Ridgeway on behalf of the young people of the church, by Rev. E. W. Kinchen on behalf of Wesley Chapel, by W. J. J. Byers on behalf of the ministers' alliance, and by J. H. Kelly, introducing the guest of honor, Dr. N. P. Greggs. The audience stood amid the applause which lasted several minutes. The Doctor responded in a splendid speech reviewing his efforts in this field. He told his hearers the best way to show their friendship for him when he was gone was to be loyal to the church and to whoever was to succeed him, that insofar as the church, was concerned to forget Greggs and to take up the burden with his successor. At the conclusion of his address, he was loaded down with floral offerings for himself and Mrs. Greggs. It was indeed a great occasion and the highest honor and a deserved one, for the reason that his life in this community has been an inspiration to the people thereof. The Eagle wishes Dr. Greggs and his good wife the greatest success in whatever field may be his lot. EUGENE CURRY NELSON, M.D., OPENS OFFICE IN THIS CITY WITH DR. W. A. TARLETON IN THE GERMAIN BUILDING. The ranks of those who have to do with the practice of materia Medica have been reinforced by one of the most brilliant practitioners in the person of Eugene Curry Nelson, M.D., who no doubt will lend lustre to the already bright retinue of physicians which the race can boast of in this city at the present time. Dr. Nelson was born in Charleston, S. C., graduated from the famous Meharry College, was an attendant at both Hubbard and Provident Hospitals. He is devoting special attention to x-ray work and has inaugurated himself with the operating room at the County Hospital. Dr. Nelson is a nephew of the Hon. R. L. Smith of Texas, twice a member of the legislature of that state and now associated with ex-President Taft, Andrew Carnegie and Booker T. Washington on the Jeans fund of one million dollars for education in the South. He is also licensed by the great commonwealth of Virginia in which state he was held in the highest esteem by both clientage and the profes- POOR ORIGINAL M. B. GREAT CROWDS ARE FLOCKING TO HEAR THE GIFTED WOMAN EVANGELIST, MARY G. EVANS OF CHICAGO. BIG MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, EAST THIRD AND STEPHENSON AVE. Big Mt. Zion Baptist church, East Third and Stephenson Ave., of which the Rev. Dr. Joseph T. Hill is the popular minister, has during the week been the scene of a mighty religious awakening, a real old time halleljah shouting revival such as our fathers and mothers held in the bygone days. The meeting is under the leadership of one of the most gifted and forceful women evangelists that has ever visited Greater Los Angeles, in the person of Mary G. Evans, of Chicago, who is being assisted by Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, the "Fighting Parson" in the absence of Dr. Hill. Evangelist Evans has a powerful message for the unsaved and as a soul winner she has met with signal success in leading thousands of precious souls into the kingdom. As an evangelist, preacher and sweet gospel singer she is superior to the great woman preacher, Lena Mason, who visited here several years ago, and easily ranks with the late Amanda Smith, of sainted memory. The coming of Sister Evans to Los Angeles at this time was upon the invitation of the Rev. Dr. F. Jesse Peck, to hold a great evangelist meeting at First African Methodist church, Eighth and Towne Ave., but owing to the unsettled condition in the pastorate, Sister Evans was invited by Dr. Hill to hold a ten days' soul winning campaign in Big Zion, which has resulted in a mighty spiritual awakening. Precious souls are being converted and additions made to the church. Tomorrow, Sunday, promise sto be a great day in Zion, so follow the crowds. Three big services. At 9:30 a great Sunday school hour, bring the children; at 11 a.m., sermonic subject, "The Coming of Shiloh," Dr. J. Gordon McPherson, preacher; at 2:30 o'clock, big Union Gospel Services. All the pastors of the city with their congregations are urged to attend this glorious religious mass meeting and hear this gifted young woman preacher, Mary G. Evans, who is beyond question the greatest woman evangelist in the world. Every mother and young woman THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Evangelist Mary F. Evans should attend the great meeting Sunday afternoon and hear her thrilling message to the unsaved women of Greater Los Angeles, should crowd old Zion Sunday. Evangelist Evans will also preach Sunday evening and it is also predicted that many will be turned away. So great has become the interest throughout the city to hear this remarkable woman, the crowds are flocking from every section of the city, so you will have to hurry if you wish to secure a seat. The big augmented choir under the leadership of Dr. Hill will sing, and this will be worth going miles to hear. Sister Evans is the younger woman evangelist before the American Public, and has the distinction of being baptized in the sacred river of Jordan, where the blessed Saviour, Jesus Christ, was immersed by John the Baptist. She has traveled throughout the Holy Lands, Africa, Continental Europe, to hear this gifted young woman with eloquent pathos describe the interesting scenes of the Holy Lands, and other incidents of her travels are indeed a treat of your lifetime. Surely God is using the women of the Race in the mighty work of soul saving. 500 Christian men and women should join in this mighty religious awakening and win Greater Los Angeles for "Jesus Christ." Every minister, deacon, Sunday school worker, missionary, should follow the crowd to Big Mt. Zion, and bring their unsaved friends to hear Evangelist Mary G. Evans, the Chicago orphan girl preacher, the greatest woman evangelist that has visited Greater Los Angeles in recent years. Remember the place. Big Mount Zion Baptist church, East Third and Stephenson avenue. The carriage at the door, so come early in order to secure seats, as hundreds will be turned away from these great services. Come early, join in the big Gospel song services. What has become of the recog- It looks like President Wilson's friend, Gen. Villa, is all in There was no hesitancy to intervention in the case of Hayti. The First A. M. E. church is having a family quarrel and is amply able to control the situation, and it is hands off for outsiders. JIM CROWISM RUNNING WILD IN CITY DEPARTMENTS. Administration The following circular was sent out by the Sebastian headquarters during the last campaign as how well they are handling the self same proposition. "JIM CROW-ISM," offically announced by the City Civil Service Commission,— The Board of Civil Service Commission, 204 Exchange Bldg., Los Angeles, Cal. January 22, 1915. Mr. Arnold M. Cavanaugh, 947 McGarry St., Los Angeles. Dear Sir: "At the meeting of the Civil Service Commission on January 19, 1915, your request for transfer to the list of colored persons eligible for appointment to the Fire Service was granted." Respectfully yours, (Signed) F. M. DEE, Jr. Chief Examiner and Secretary. Mr. John Snowden, the personal representative and manager of Mr. Whiffen and, as councilman, is supervisor of this department, which is discriminating on account of the color of the applicant. He, therefore, as its official Mrs. S. P. Shores head, is aware of the existence of a white list and a colored list being used in this, the fire department. Mr. Whiffen, as chairman of the City Council, also has official knowledge of its existence. No colored man or woman can afford to vote more power into the hands of a person who is so un-American as to draw the color line in the merit system. Therefore on June first go to the polls and cast your vote for C E. Sebastian, a man who will give you a square deal regardless of race, color or creed and who views all of the people as American citizens and entitled to fair treatment as such. During the last municipal camfrom the Sebastian headquarters was circulated in every work of the colored settlement, we believe, under the direction of one H. H. Boone, real estate broker and a known stand pat Republican. The same Boone following the circulars, made most glorious promises to his colored constituents, assuring them that the Negro would not be discriminated against if Sebestain is elected and no colored and white list would exist in the civil service commission office on the hill. The Eagle has undisputed information that the same notices have been sent to every colored applicant after passing examination that their names have been filed on the colored list. Mr. Sebastian must be aware of this fact and silently permits this Mr. Dee who styles himself as secretary and chief examiner of the Civil Service Board to issue application blanks to colored men and women and if successful inform them that they have been regularly assigned to the colored list. In other words to the waste basket. Such discrimination is unknown to any portion of the American Republic except in the City of Los Angeles. It is an inacted farce with D. M. Dee as central figure, being surrounded by the city's chief executive and his chief of department. There can be no very good reason for the colored man in the city of Los Angeles should give sanction or support to such an admin- stration. The Eagle is in possession of many other racial discriminations of the present administration. The Eagle will keep up its fight for equal opportunity and even handed justice o all. THE FRATERNAL CAREER OF MRS. SARAH POLLARD SHARES From girlhood Mrs. Shares has been active in church and fraternal organizations that had for their object racial uplift along all ines. Her first connection was with the St. Anna Temple, Austin, Tex., her home town, where she labored ardently until she came to Los Angeles where she immediately became active in the formation of Hill Temple No. I, and is now one of its honored charter members. She was its first treasurer and banked the first forty dollars for that temple which has had the most marvelous growth of any order in this city. Hill Temple today owns property located on the corner of Newton and Tennessee streets, valued at $20,000) tweaty thousand dollars, a neat bank account and a plan for one of the largest and best auditoriums for Race accommodation. Neither members nor friends would deny accrediting the financial success of Hill Temple to Mrs. Shores under whose steady reign the order has developed for the best good of not only its constituents but all people of African descent in this section. Mrs. Shores as State Officer.. She is not only active in her home temple, but likewise exerts statewide influence for the spread of S. M. T. & U. B. F. For eight years she has presided as State Deputy and two years ago when the Mutual Aid was added to the organization she was unanimously elected treasurer and banked first nine dollars for this department, and since that, time more than $1300 and have in bank $1575.

Rev H. B. T Barbara, has retu National Baptist I Chicago, and will port the same in m sue of this paper. PASADENA PART THE NEW YORK CITY UNIVERSITY Rev. W. T. Vernon has been ousted from the presidency of Campbell college and his friends are angry. They held an indignation meeting at Jackson, Miss., and at the same time they burned in effigy Bishop James Connor the president of he, board of trustees of the school. Two months ago Bishop Flipper bolted from the Bishop's council when defeated as a candidate for the position of secretary of the council at Wilberforce. Bishop Chappelle and Conner also leave. What's the matter with our ministers? W. B. Hutte, 3606 Wabash ave., and C. C. Smallwood 1912 S. Dearborn street were pleasant visitors in our city Saturday. Bhey are both from Chicago. Mr. Hutte is a medical student at Meharry in Nashville, while mr. Smallwood is a great Y. M. C. A. man and a batchelor, but he forgot to speak for the Broad Ax and said mr. Julius F. Taylor has a great paper in the Broad Ax. Call again gentlemen. Mr. Smallwood thinks Pasadena is the most beautiful place he was ever in, and says when he retires he wants to spend the evening of his life in this city. The gate is open. Editor Taylor is a fearless writer and hews to the line and will see that the ax will fall on Rev. A. J. Carey and mr. T. Wallace Swan. We need more writers as editor Taylor. Mrs. Frank Prince and her two children were the guests of Mrs. J. C. Moore Tuesday. Miss Ruth Moore will leave monday for North Carolina, where she will teach.

Turner on Worcester avenue, Among those present were Miss Margaret Prince, Miss Edna Jackson, Mrs. Turner. Mrs. Wilson did not have her bible class for children Saturday, but she took fourteen of the children to the East Lake park, where they had a picnic. The outing was a grand thing for the little folks. It is better to send your children to 517 S. Raymond avenue every Saturday afternoon than to send them to the play grounds Don't forget that school opens Monday. That is the door of hope for out race, so don't let the door close on our children. Monday morning, that being the opening day at school. The young ladies will add much to the Pasadena society. On the 4th sunday evening Mrs. S. Wilson will lecture at Scott chapel. 615 S. Fair Oaks avenue, under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid society. They will render a fine program.

CARR, THE PIONEER SETTLER Pasadena High School School Chapel choir went to Los Angeles sunday and sang at Mason chapel. Rev. L. G. Robinson preached a great sermon, and Rev. McKinney will preach both morning and evening sunday at scott chapel. All are welcome; seats free. Miss Marie Ford who is a student at present in the Chicago musical college in Chicago, writes that she meets so many people there from California that it makes her feel at home, and many of her school mates are daughters of her mother's schoolmates, Mrs. Camelia (Crowley) Williams, Mrs. Emma (Eskredge) Williams, Mrs. Mamie (Sloan) Willard, all have daughters in that college; and Mrs. Florence (Cole) Talbert, formerly of Los Angeles, is taking a course there. Miss Ford is a member of the National Baptist convention chorus, and is also a member of the chorus that organized some months ago to sing at the emancipation celebration. There are a thousand male and female voices in it, under the leadership of Prof. J. Gray Lucas. They sang national and religious anthems at the coliseum, 15th street and Wabash avenue. There were 10,000 people in the building at the opening and many thousands were turned away. The meeting was opened by Bishop Samuel Fallows. On the platform were Governor Dunne, Dr. J. W.E. Bowers, Rev. A. J. Carey, Dr. J. T. Jenifer historian of the Methodist Episcopal church, D. E. Shanahan speaker of the Illinois house of representatives. Thousands viewed the interesting exhibits and Gov. Dunne praised the progress made by the colored people in fifty years of freedom. Miss Ford is the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ford of this city and is a production of the Pasadena high school. Mrs. M. E Moore entertained her sunday school class Saturday afternoon in honor of Miss Caroline Taylor of Seattle, from 3 to 5 o'clock. The out-of-town guests were merian and Ella and Charley mathews of Los Angeles. Mrs Moore is one of the teachers at Scott chapel. The house was tastefully decorated with flowers. It was an enjoyable affair for the little people. 一 Rev. and Mrs. W. H. Hughes leave for vacation.

Peck who was appointed to Los Angeles, but the church was not satisfied, so Rev, Peck will go to Portland, Ore. But the people were well pleased to get back Rev. W. S. Dyatt, for he has done a great work in this city. But the question now is who will Scott chapel get, as the conference meets next week in San Diego. Many people regret to learn that Dr. Kinchen will leave Los Angeles, for he has done more than any minister ever stationed in Los Angeles. Read The Eagle and get food for thought on two classes of people that do not like The Eagle, one don't read and the other don't think. When will the Harriet Tubman club meet again? Mr. Vanderbilt Williams went to Santa Monica Thursday on his vacation. He is registered at the La Bonita, and from there he goes to San Diego for a few days. Miss Margaret Prince after spending a three months' vacation in this city with her parents left saturday for Allensworth, where she is teaching school. It is not a segregated school for she teaches both colored and white children. To know all the news all the time read the California Eagle. Read the Eagle.

[Name] MORRIS OPPENHEIM FOR POLICE JUDGE Judge Oppenheim, who has for the past two years presided on the bench of the police court of San Francisco, has made an enviable record for dealing out even handed justice, and the common people who have oftimes been denied justice have come into their own. Judge Oppenheim knows no class nor creed. He seeks in his high position to deal justly with all, and if he errs to do so on the side of mercy. This being true it accounts for the hearty and almost unanimous support which he is receiving from all classes and it is almost a foregone conclusion that he will be triumphantly elected at the primaries on Sept. 28th. THOMAS H. FINN FOR SHERIFF The Colored voters in rallying to the support of Tom Finn for sheriff, are simply standing by a man who has done more for them than any other man in public life in the state of California. Therefore it is indeed good fortune that they at this time have the opportunity to show their appreciation for the efforts which he has made in their behalf. And in the pending campaign it is freely predicted that Mr. Finn will receive the solid Colored vote. He has served the people in this capacity and his past record speaks for itself. Aside from this as State Senator he has done much, especially for our people. In defeating the segregation measure in the last session of the legislature he was a potent factor, and the recognition which has been given by way of patronage he has also been the keystone. So therefore in supporting Finn for Sheriff it is a case of standing by the man who has been our consistent friend. R.B STRICTLY HANDMADE 5¢CIGAR THOMAS F. BOYLE FOR AUDITOR. For auditor of San Francisco county Thos. F. Boyle, the present incumbent, will no doubt be returned for another term, in fact at this time there seems no one with the temerity to run against him, and it is confidently expected RETAIN A FAITHFUL OFFICIAL Elect Him at the Primary, Sept. 28, 191 John Ginty Incumbent For Assessor* that he will be elected at the primaries. Mr. Boyle is a genial and well met gentleman, who has safeguarded the interest of all of the citizens with the greatest proficiency, and they will do themselves credit to continue him as the city and county auditor for FICKERT FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY The people of all classes can well afford to support Chas. M. Fickert to retain the position of district attorney, for the reason that this office has been so satisfactorily conducted under his regime as to merit the approval of the people of all classes and of all parties. The common people have in that office at this time a man who is considerate of their interests. The Colored people are giving his candidacy a strong support, several of their organizations having already given him their endorsement. This is probably the most important office to be filled as a result of the coming primary and election and it therefore behooves the people to look well that they retain Mr. Fickert, who has so satisfactorily filled that position for the past four years, who has been an official of the people, and if re-elected be in a better position from his varied and ripened to serve the people Francisco in the imposition of District Attorneys The Strat FURNISHED ROOM Strictly first-class, accommodat 1936-38 Bush Street; SAN FRANCISCO Mrs. Will Lashle Phone, West Second Baptist Chu Beach, Sunday School, 9:30; at 11 o'clock; B.

It was left to a democratic national administration to forcibly take over the government of the republic of Haiti taking for its excuse the internal disorders of that unhappy country. But the conditions in Haiti are not half as bad as are the conditions in Mexico, neither is the cause for American intervention as urgent. It is to be hoped in its plans of retrenchment the county Board of Supervisors will not cut either the number or salaries of the colored janitors. These employees of the county have been faithful in the discharge of their duties and now earn more than they get, though we have yet to learn of a single complaint from them. As we spoke in favor of the colored city firemen, in like manner now speak for all classes of Negro labor in all the departments of the city and county, which at best is but meager representation.

The installation of the Company's Milling Plant is about complete. Mr. James B. Freeman, a practical machinist, will be sent to the Company's camp Tuesday, September 14, to adjust the Gold Separator and put the plant in operation. By order of Board of Directors of the Eldorado Gold Star Mining Company, NAPOLEON G. PITTS, We were present at the office of the company-on the departure of Mr. Freeman to the mines to set up the separating plant, so in a short time the milling will commence and then the long looked for day at hand, the plant will be making money for the stockholders. If the readers of this article would only realize the possibilities of this company they would take advantage of these few remaining days and buy stock and be in on the ground floor. Other mines are being worked on adjoining claims whose ore will not assay anything like the claims of the Gold Star Company, and they are earning thousands of dollars weekly for their owners. These people had plenty of money to install their plants. Bite with the Gold Star Company it has been launched by small buyers of stock and they will be the beneficiaries. We confidently look for the company to be the greatest success ever undertaken by members of the race. By frugal management they have methodically, step by step, so managed its affairs as to at this time be in a position to say that they have actually succeeded and the company will in a short time begin to reap its re- For instance the following is ward TRIP OF PROMINENT MERCHANT AND WIFE BY AUTO TO SAN FRANCISCO AND RETURN.

Visit to San Quentin After reaching the exposition city, among the side trips was one to the state puenitentiary at San Quentin, where ewe viewed the bleak, gray somber walls and passed into this silent work shop conducted by the state, the great jute mills, the spacious dining halls etc. We also made the side trip into Yosemite, via Big Oak Flat route. To drive over that road is equivalent to Sherman's saying as to war. The period was at the time known as the dead dull season, but even at this time we were able to get an idea of the natural beauty so much talked of in ley. Writers of the Yosemite Valley Road, which prover the Wanona driving through the historic tree forests of California. At times on these trips we fared as the sturdy pioneers, we slept on straws with our blankets and the canopy of heaven for a cover, ate Kaffir corn, foraged the wheat and bean fields on our way, from this fare to the sumptuous fare at the Poodle Dog Cafe in San Francisco, and the best that city affords.

Bernett, the good shepard who has led the flock through the land, of Cappadocia, has been called to another field. Being a Christian man as well as an humble servant to both his minifriend, as well as to his members, and citizens likewise, even though he regrets to leave San Diegins balmy climate, he willingly says that he calls; and that the days are never too stormy no the nights too dark to fail to respond to the call of the gospel. As Rev. Rurnett said in his closing remarks sunday night: Even though the town to which he was going to was small, and the charge likewise and the people are in doubt as to what can be done, but as he was formerly a Missourian he has not forgotten the Missouriian spirit and that is, he will have to show them what a God-sent man can do. Time and space will not allow us to tell all the good things that Rev. Burnett has accomplished. During his pastorate here he has benefitted the church in every way, both socially and financially. He left Monday on the 12:50 train. At the station a host of friends bid him a God-speed journey. At Kansas City he will stop for a few days to visit his wife, and then he will continue to his destination. Fifty years of freedom and still read your neighbor's race paper. That makes you dependent. You should not continue to read your neighbor's paper any more than you should use your neighbor's phone. It is just the same when you borrow your neighbor's paper, you begin to find fault and criticise, when no doubt you yourself are at fault. Have you stopped to think the amount of money it takes to run o newspaper? Have you stopped to prune the criticisms the newspapers have to bear? Every person when they accomplish something expect fame, and they desire the world to know it. Without the aid of the paper how can they? Refreshing your remembrance back to childhood's days when the child made its first play house, taking its mother by the hand and led her to the house. If mother praised the house the child shouted and clapped its hands with joy. If she found fault the child would cry. It is the way with every man and woman today, as their heart is on a pivot; when sorrow strikes it, it tells. When a young lady makes her debut in society regardless of the praises of relations and many surrounding friends, there is an aching heart in which she waits for exclamation from some one. If they do not respond the evening of enjoyment is faded away. The Eagle which is practically a home paper can not feel its good effect without it is shown some appreciation. The Egle wants subscribers, advertisements, help ads; reading matters, laconic, news and every thing of importance, for the advancement of the people. Mr. S. L. Daniels of Rev. Mitchell's Baptist church, was elected vice-president of the Dunbar Literary society.

Now that summer is with us once again, our minds should turn to thoughts of vacation. It is very difficult sometimes to decide just where one wishes to spend his vacation. But if you are thinking of going to the seaside, the problem of WHERE to go is at once solved. No more peaceful, homelike, convenient, and cheerful place can be found than LA BONITA at beautiful Santa Monica by the Sea. At La Bonita you will find: Clean, comfortable, well ventilated rooms and apartments; a complete line of bathing suits and accessories; hot and cold shower beds; a playground for children; a tennis court; and a restaurant presided over by one who knows how to prepare good things to eat. And remember the following facts: That La Bonita is only a very short distance from the ocean—a convenience which bathers appreciate; that the tennis court is at the service of the public at all times that a supper at LA BONITA CAFE will give the finishing touch to an evening of the management of La Bonita to do everything that will add to the pleasure and comfort of patrons; and that if you take the Venice Short Line car, you get off at Pico Boulevard (formerly Fremont Avenue) walk one block east and one-nalf block north.

The pastor delivered two splendid sermons on "Clandestine Marriage" and "The Life of Saul." The rally was indeed a success and the speeches by the various pastors of the city were well delivered. The rally was given for the anniversary of the pastor, Elder D. L. McMickens, who has held this charge for the past four years. The brief speeches made on the life and work of our pastor were delivered by Rev. McPherson, Kinchen, Sheafe, Washington, Brown, Conquest and Father Cleghorn, while the Rev. Byers acted as Master of Ceremonies. Space will not permit to go into the details of the many different splendid speeches.

CHURCH EMBRQILEI If there is anyone who reads the Eagle who are anxious to see the same this week on account of the sensational episodes which have been reported in A. M. E. Church circles this week, and reading, expect to feast upon the things that happened which reflect in any way upon our members thereof. BSHops. Pastors present or ex, they will be doomed to dissapointment. We do not seek to publish the untoward things or happenings of the race, but on the contrary we exploit the things in spell PROGRESS. However, as a newspaper, we are compelled to give to our readers the news in a general way, that they may be acquainted with the trend of events which at all times should be public property. The appointment of Rev. Jesse F. Peck, who served as the pastor of the Eight and Towne street church five years and who has pastored for the past two years at Oakland, met with strong opposition on his arrival in the city to take charge of his appointment. On his arrival here last Saturday accompanied by Bishop H. B. Park's, there was gathered at the 8th and Towne street church from seventy-five to one-hundred and twenty-five members who insisted that the Bishop come up and hear their protest, to which place the Bishop and Rev. Peck wended their way. On their arrival and what happened thereafter we say not.—we were not there! But suffice to say Rev. Peck did not assume the duties of pastor on Sunday and the Bishop left saying he would send a new man for the charge. At this writing Dr. Peck still has the appointment in his pocket, but as to whether he will ever use it remains to be seen. The appointment, contrary to report has not been recalled. The Breast Care Oncology Desk The Reason For Opposing Peck The opposition to Rev. Peck's appointment in the main is wholly impersonal, while quite a following were sorely disappointed at Dr. Greggs not being returned. Still Rev. Peck left the charge beloved by all after a five year service, but it was alleged that his return this time was the result of trickery, by influences outside of the church, by meddling outsider it was this phase that made it a hostile demonstration that greeted the Bishop and Dr. Peck on their arrival in this city on last Saturday. Just what the outcome will be can only be chronicled as the events take place and for that—keep your eye on this Eagle. We will keep you posted Since writing the above the Bishop wired that presiding elder J. H. Wilson would fill the appointment here until such time as he could permanently send a man. But at a meeting held last night by about two hundred members in the church, they wired the Bishop the presiding elder would not be permitted to fill the pulpit in that way and up to going to press this is the status of conditions. What the next move event will be can only be conjectured. Sunday New Hope had a large congregation present when the Assistant Pastor Rev. Howard Folke preached from the text, "The Lord guve and the Lord hath taken away, blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1-21. The church was crowded in the evening, baptism was held. Rev W. G. Petts preached the sermon after which the pastor spoke a few well chosen words. Pastor Anderson will occupy the pulpit sunday at the morning service; in the evening Bro. E. Payne will preach. At this service missionary sisters Emma and Zurula Hodnet will favor us with a Duet. All members and friends are cordially invited to be present at both services. M. S. S. A GOSPEL PREACHER Rev. E.

D., formerly of the Illinois Annual Conference, where he has paedored successfully a number of the leading charges, is appointed by Bishop Parks to lead to success, by the grace of God, the Second A. M. E, church, 53rd street Los Angeles. Rev. Mr. Johnson is a gospel preacher who loves his race and has great confidence in humanity.
