The California Eagle California Conference of A.M.E. ESTABLISHED 1879 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1594 VOLUME 29 FORTY-NINTH SESSION OF THE CALIFORNIA A. M. E. CONFERENCE CONVENES AT FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH ON LAST WEDNESDAY The 49th session of the A. M. E. Conference convened at 9:30 o'clock Wednesday, with the Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks presiding. The churches from throughout the state were represented by their pastors and delegates. The Bishop did not waste much time in preliminaries, but got right down to the business of the session and after the roll call of the conference, introduced Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson, who delivered the annual sermon. Rev. Wilson was at his best and made a masterly effort. At its conclusion he was complimented on all sides for the same. At its conclusion the visitors were introduced. Among them were Rev. Kinchen, Prof. Green, and others. The afternoon session was taken up with reports from the various churches. They all showed a wonderful progress along all lines. The conference adjourned to meet for the reception at 8 p.m. Wednesday Evening's Reception. Wednesday evening was the grand reception in honor of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks and the members of the conference, their waves and delegates. The church was filled to overflowing to witness the program which was as follows: 1. Music—First A. M. E. church the city—Dr. H. D. Prowd, chor. 2. Praise—Rev. J. C.

Each participant acquitted himself with high credit. At its conclusion the Bishop's response was a masterly exposition of African Methodism, and the part it has played in the mighty march of progress of this nation. More than 780,000 members are enrolled under its banner and are marching on to victory. At the conclusion of the program the audience repaired to the banquet hall, where they were served with refreshments by the ladies of the Anuxiliary department. The Second Day Session of the Annual Conference Not until noon Thursday did the Mrs. Sunsee fit to brighten the universe with her dazzling rays, but even though a heavy mist fell upon the earth, within the walls of the First A. M. E. Church there was a brightness not unlike the rays of the sun in warmth and splendor. Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks occupied his seat at the helm; about him sat his boys, as he was wont to call them. On the Bishop's face one great smile lingered, and sometimes when a little shadow would steal its way across his brow the smile continued to stay. The morning session was full of interest as the reports from the churches in the district came in. Report of Presiding Elder Wilson To the Bishop and Members of the California Conference of the African Methodist Epistol Church, in Annual Conference Assembled. Greetings We rejoice that it has pleased our all wise and ever beneficent Father, in His just and wise management of the affairs of men, to preserve our dives, and enable us to again assemble here, in this, our 49th Annual Session with unbroken ranks. While many of the faithful membership to whom we have administered, have been called to their great reward, numbering among them some who might be styled "the land marks" of our Methodism on the coast, a merciful Providence has preserved unbroken the ranks of our itineracy; together with our superannuate fathers in Israel. And by the grace of God we are here to answer to the first roll call in the beginning of the second century of our organic existence. Sir, we would be derelict and unworthy of a place in the Church of Allen, were we unmindful of the heroic deeds and the self-sacrificing lives of the fathers and apostles of our Methodism that made this day of grace possible to us. And we take it that the San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SEPTEMBER 9, 1916 In 49th Annual Session. First A. M. E. Church, where Conference is in Session. measure of our love and appreciation for them, and the work they have accomplished, will be the measure of our loyalty and devotion to the legacy they have left us—the African Methodist Episcopal Church—with her one hundred years of achievement for God and humanity, battering down barriers, opening doors of hope and opportunities, taking the slaves and chattels of the earth, and making of them kings and priests unto God, teaching so successfully the lessons of self help and self-dependence to a people who hitherto knew not how to provide for themselves, demonstrating to the world the Negro's ability to govern himself, and manage large business concerns, and above all else, teaching, as no other organization the Fatherhood omi God and the Brotherhood of Man. While there are not a few that love the church for what it is, for what it has done, and for what it is destined to accomplish in the centuries to come, the lamentable fact remains that there are some among us who are not of us; who are diligent in their efforts, in their words, and in their deeds to destroy the very institution they profess to love and revere. As there are Socialists and Anarchists in the body politic, who inveigh against law and order, and those chosen for enforcement of law; so, into our Methodism have crept those of like temperament, passions and darings. It is a lamentable fact that in our ministry, in our officecy, and in our laity, are those who neither believe our doctrines, or love our Discipline. There are those who dare to strange firees upon our altars, who repudiate our form of government, and applaud others who rebel against it. When we review the achievements of the century just past when we consider the legacy left us by the long line of our noble ancestors, and when we remember thier great love for the doctrine and discipline of this, our common heritage, the African Methodist Episcopal Church, we rise in our might and say, as says tha state, socialism, and anarchism MUST GO! In this conference, I am sorry to say, are men who blush to speak evil, not only of their brother ministers, but also of the Bishops of our church, and for no other cause than that ministers have failed to receive the appointment they desired; hence by their insinuations and innuendos succeed in arraigning against the heads of the church and against the ministry not to their liking that class of our membership who are ever ready to meddle in the affairs of others; to fight the battles of others, or to carry the slime of others. Then, too, in some of the churches of this conference, we have officers who make no secret of their opposition to the powers that be; not only are they uncharitable, but unreasonable to the degree of untruthfulness in their remarks in private and in public in expressing that opposition. And stranger still is the fact that we have ministers who profess to be loyal African Methodist preachers who continue to nominate and place in office this class of men. I warn you today that the church must rid itself of the disgruntled trouble-breeder, who delights to sow the seed of discord, whether he be in the pulpit or in the pew, or they will clog the wheels of our Methodism on the Coast. Notwithstanding the malcontents and the ne'er-do-wells, the rank and file of the California ministry, the men who are bringing results; taking care of every interest of the church of Allen; are true to the core, and the reports they bring to you at this conference are but slight indications of the real hardships and sacrifices through which they have passed. The following is but a brief mention of each: REDLANDS—Rev. A. O. D. Steele Pastor Redlands has served as a drydock this year, in which Brother Steele has remained for repairs. It is well known to us all how broken in health he has been for the last three or four years; but by doing light church work, and getting out and roughing it, he POOR ORIGINAL THE PEOPLE'S FORUM FOR UPLIFT ALL MEN UP NO MAN DOWN NUMBER 30 Church is is fast returning to his former self, and feels able to assume heavier responsibilities. Redlands has a splendid citizenship. Some of the most thrifty, industrious, honest and loyal members of our communion reside here. But, unfortunately, their number is small, and there seems to be but little to attract and hold the newcomer. So, there is no appreciable increase in the population, no increase in the membership of the church. SAN BERNARDINO—Rev. I. C. Lockhart, Pastor The new church building which was in the way of construction when the conference met last; has been completed. The old church building remodeled and turned into a parsonage, the membership increased to 83, with a debt of $1879.45. Unfortunately for the reputation of the place, matters got beyond control in settling the claims for the new building. A loan of $3,000 was negotiated from a private individual; $1,500 of it was received and first mortgage given when the work was completed, and the other $1,500 needed, the lender had changed his mind, and refused to let them have it. Being now unable to secure the necessary amount elsewhere on second mortgage, the lumber man, to whom they owed $1,700, sued, got judgment, under which the property was advertised and sold. The lumber man being the highest and only bidder, the property was sold to him for $1,700, and he turned it back to the trustees for that amount plus the cost of court proceedings. The people have obt recovered rom the shock and humiliation of having their church sold, and are determined to meet their obligations. This property is well worth $5,000, with a debt of $1879.45. Brother Lockhart has done a splendid work in this charge. POMONA—Rev. C. H. Harris. Pastor Brother Harris is doing about all that could be expected in this appointment. There are but few of our people in this city, and, as usual, they are not all united upon any one thing. Yet, with the faithful few the year's work has been accomplished, and the standard of the charge unheld. DUARTE—Rev. H. Judkins Pastor This is Brother Judkins' first year in the itinerant ministry; and a brilliant beginning it is. He found Duarte in an almost hopeless condition, the result of past experiences. The few members who claimed membership were discouraged and scattered. He has succeeded in gathering them together, inspiring new hope and greatly reviving the work. RIVERSIDE—Rev. J. H. C. Redd, Pastor The debt that threatened trouble at the beginning of the year P. H. RT REV. H. BLANTON PAKES, Presiding Bishop California Conference has been reduced, creditors reassured, so that in the future the management of affairs will be less difficult. Brother Redd has labored hard this year, meeting with much opposition from some of his officers and members as a result of misunderstanding on minor matters. But in spite of all, he has succeeded in keeping the banner afloat. WATTS—Rev. Geo. L. Trigg. Pastor Nothwithstanding the discouraging circumstances encountered on entering this field, Brother Trigg has done an excelent year's work. Brother Brown, after his removal from this charge by your Reverence at the last sitting of our conference, returned to harass them for what he styled the balance of his last year's salary. Failing to meet a ready response, he caused suit to be brought for the collection of the same. This being but a mission, and having no funds with which to employ counsel to defend their interest in court, a new pastor and wife for them to support as best they could, I assumed the larger portion of the responsibility, retained council and met the case in court, which was tried, and decided in favor of the church. Overcoming the effects of this litigation and contention, the pastor and people have rounded out a very successful year. A new and more desirable location, on a popular thoroughfare is being secured, upon which the church building is to be moved. The population of this commonwealth is ever increasing, the people acquiring their own homes; so the future of this charge is hopeful. LONG BEACH Long Beach is a watering place, where our citizenship is transient, and consequently a transient membership. We have 14 members here, with $165.41 in bank for the purchase of a church home. It would be wise to continue our efforts in this field. Rev. M. J. Johnson, who felt that his usefulness in this mission was ended, resigned in July, and since he was accomplishing no good, we accepted his resignation. Since then the work has been without a regular pastor. I would recommend that this work be attached to Watts, and designated Watts Circuit. LOS ANGELES—Second Church, Rev. E. R. Johnson, Pastor This has been a red letter year in the history of this appointment. For the first time in its existence he have met their current bills and made a payment of two hundred due on the note last THE CHURCH OF THE SUNSHINE TO the great group breaking of the new Macedonia Baptist Church in Watta, Sunday, September 10th, at 2 p. m.

FOR PRESIDENT Charles Evans Hughes of New York FOR VICE-PRESIDENT Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indiana FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR HIRAM W. JOHNSON Congressman from 10th Congressional District CAPT. H. Z. OSBORNE For Assemblyman 74th District FRANK H. MOUSER K Only a few more fleeting weeks of Wilson and hard times. Truckling to the labor bosses will hardly save President Wilson's hide in the coming elections in November. GETTING READY FOR THE FRAY Just at present the political forces of the various parties and of indyduals are laying out their plans of work on the trestle board and ere long the finish race will be on in earnest. The Wet and Dry forces are also, it is said, planning to launch a vigorous campaign, and this being the case the people can look forward to some lively milling between now and the first Tuesday in November. MESSED UP THE PARTY All that we can say relative to the present political situation in municipal politics is that it is a MESS. The whole party of five seems to be disheveled by the trend of events. The EAGLE believes in clean politics and we trust that after all it is not so bad as it looks and that as a result of the pending Grand Jury's investigation the innocence of the solid five will be established. A.M.E CONFERENCE WELCOME This week we have in our midst the preachers and laymen of the A. M. E. connection, in conference assembled and we will say to this great body as to all others who are really doing the things that mark progress and uplift, that we are more than pleased to have you in our midst, because you bring to us the fruits of your labor in the shape of Progress, and if as a Christian organization you report progress it means the progress of the whole race. So we are always proud to have near us in our very midst these forces which are doing so much to make history for this people on the Pacific Coast and we can hurl the message back over the rockies to our brothers in the East, that we too are keeping pace with this mighty march of Progress. Ascending the Heights Rev. J. Logan Craw is a young man, but by dint of energy and rendering meritorious service to whatever he was commissioned to do, has carved for himself at this early age an enviable record, and without doubt will continue to rise because his work commends him. His great service to this community cannot be estimated in dollars and cents, he came here when the boat was rocking in a rough sea, and he steadied the boat and brought it into a peaceful harbor. Los Angeles is proud of Rev. Craw and his estimable helpmate, who has been of such helpful service, not only to Rev. Craw, but to the people of this church and city as well, and we have no other thought than for their return for another conference year. URGING BETTER CONDUCT FROM OUR YOUNG FOLK ON STREET The conduct of some of our young people on street cars and in public places is reprehensible, and for the betterment of conditions of all concerned it is to be hoped that parents, guardians and others interested in our youth, and the young people themselves, will take in consideration the reflection it casts on the Race and act accordingly. Loud and boisterous language, an over exuberance of expressed exhalation, of one another telling everybody on a street car your business should be eschewed and the strong arm of the law should fall on all who use profane and obscene language in public places and on street cars. Western University The splendid contribution to Western University by the great meeting at 8th and Towne church on Thursday evening, is one indeed of which those who gave can rest assured that their sacrifice is greatly appreciated and the cause an eminently worthy one. Western University is doing great work in the field of education, each year she is turning out graduates who are going forth to all sections, advancing the slogan of Progress and Efficacy to the colored Race from the Middle to the Far West. Western University, therefore, is a school worth while and deserving of the support of the people of this section on the largest scale. Hughes was re-elected District Superintendent. Mr. Wm. Churchill was elected delegate to the Conference. The Sunday School work in the conference is in fine condition. Every charge in the conference has a school, well officered, and using the literature of the church. The Allen's Christian Endcaavor work is not what it should be. In some of our churches it seems difficult to keep it alive, while in others there is none. New Work We have attempted the organization of no new work this year, as we have not the men, theright kind of men to supply it with after organization. Thus closes our work for the conference year. Thanking God for the opportunity of being of some service in His Vineyard; for the Church of Allen; for the superior quality of her episcopacy; for her self-sacrificing ministry, and for her loyal and devoted membership, I have the honor to subscribe myself. THURSDAY EVENING Was Education Evening of the Conference, which was also Pasadena night. Rev. Dyett was in charge of the program, which was rendered to an audience that taxed the capacity of the big church. The program was highly creditable in every respect, and the music rendered to the choir and orchestra from the Crown City was all that could be asked. After reading the report of the Educational Committee of the Conference by Rev. R. H. Harbert, Rev. Dyett introduced Mr. Harold Prince, who delivered an address on education. It was an able dissertation along the lines of the educational advancement of the Race, and especially the part that the church is playing in the same. Great was the applause in recognition of his effort. Mr. Walter Dyett played the violin, and so pleased was the great gathering, he was forced to respond to an encore. Bishop Parks closed the exercises by timely remarks on the work of Western University and made an appeal which resulted in a collection of $153.37 for that institution, which is JOHN H. HARRIS J. B. BASS, Editor of The California Eagle, whose address at the Reception evoked the greatest enthusiasm ATTY. J. H. KILLY; Master of Cere monies at Reception. The Conference is continuing in its routine of work. Friday night Rev. B. R. Guy preached. Saturday will be the last day, and Sunday night the Bishop will read the appointments and disappointments for the ensuing year. An Excellent Cuisine The crowning feature of entertaining the Conference, has been the elaborate feeding accommodations. Each day one of the different auxiliaries of the church has had charge of the dining hall and all give the highest praise for the efficiency of the same. The following has been the order of the week: Wednesday Stewardess Auxiliary Board, Mrs. Eliza Warner, President; ably assisted by all the members of the same. Thursday Sisetr M. N. Harney had charge of the dining hall, assisted by Sister Fanny Warner and members of the Auxiliary Board. Friday The Mite Missionary Board served the meals and refreshments. Mrs. J. L. Craw, President; assiste dby the members of that board. Saturday The Deaconess and Young Folks A. B. O. U. T. Club will serve the meals and refreshments. Sister E. J. Stewart, President; assisted by the members. Sunday The Men's Cooperative Club, of which Mr. E. Bartlett is president, will serve the dinner, assisted by his corps of men workers for the church. Rev.

EXPLAINED We are sorry that some objections have come from members of the Thimble Club regarding the article which appeared in the last issue. We have the deepest reverence and respect for the members of this Club. We are proud of the grace of American womanhood which they represent. What has been written is not an effort to assail the intelligence of any member of the Club. We have only perverted our own intelligence by arbitrary reference to theories assumed for the purpose of argument; a hypothesis of what might naturally be expatiated upon by a refined and sensitive type of Colored Women's Contingent. It is the special prerocgative of every individual to resent any undue familiarity, but in a refined way. H. D. G. THE GIRL ORATORESS Last Sunday afternoon Miss Myrtle Anderson, the girl oratoress, addressed the people of Monrovia at the Zion Methodist Church. This young lady is making a wonderful career for herself as a speaker. It is always a treat to hear her, for she holds her audiences spell-bound. We expect to see another Ida B. Wells and a Nannie Burrongba in this young lady. Not only are her addresses masterful and eloquent, but her deliverance is forceful and convincing. She has taken up the race problem and in her forceful, earnest, and diplomatic manner she is determined to help solve this great problem. She deserves and needs the co-operation and encouragement of the public. Anyone wishing to come in touch with her can do so by phone West 2052, or address 1135 Hobart Boulevard. CARD OF THANKS We, the undersigned, desire to thank our many friends and acquaintances for their many kind acts and words during the illness of our father, and of the tenderness and care of friends at his death and funeral.

Many new members were enrolled. Miss Edith Thompson, who has completed her education at Quindaro college, has returned to the city and was out introducing many of the fancy steps. She made many of the professionals sit down and take notice. Her introduction was grand, considering she had no professional partner, but when it comes to waltzing, Mra. McDonald masters those steps so perfect that it makes the man who wrote "Baby Shoes" want to lay down his pen just for one dance with her. Mrs. Simpson, who is always looking her best, was out. Mrs. W. D. Saunders seemed to be a masterspace at any thing. be a masterpiece at any thing. A certain young lady refused to dance wit a certain young man be cause she was not introduced. The question was she thought he could not dance, but she was sadly mistaken. We thought it was so sweet of her to apologize afterwards. If you are a member of the Gala it does not necessitate an introduction. In fact, it was one of the most enjoyable evenings they had had for some time. The following were present: Mrs. R. Thompson, Mrs. F. Tate, Mrs. E. Erter, Mrs. C. Hayden, Mrs. C. Simpson, Mrs. C. Hayden, Mrs. Edith Simpson, Mrs. Mosey Roslyn, Harmon, Miss A. Hobbs, Miss Ruth Jenkins, Mr. E. Thompson, Mr. Frank Ellis, Mr. W. Thompson, Mr. O. L. Goodwin, Mhr. B. H. Winston, Mr. M. T. Laws, Mr. C. P. Denson, Mr. A. Banks, Mr. D. Darder, Mr. A. Bunett, Mr. W. Gafford, Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Saunders, Mr. and Mrs. W. McDonald, Mr. and Mrs. C. Dickerson. The invitations are now out for the Halloween entertainment given by the Fidelity Lodge at Masonic Hall. October 21, 1916. K. of P.'s gave a "jinks" last Friday night at the Masonic hall for the benefit of explaining the love and friendship between Damon and Pythias, and the honor of being a member of said lodge. Mr. G. W. Meadows introduced Mr. G. A. Ramsay as master of ceremonies. After a short address he introduced Mr. Green, C. C. of Los Angeles, after which they called upon Mr. M. T. Laws of the eagle staff, who told of the many interesting points of being a member of the wonderful order. There were no ties any more binding than those of Damon and Pythias. Many speeches were made during the evening, including the short speech by Mr. McDonald, which was the topic of the evening. It was one of the most enjoyable evenings for many moons. Many defunct members and visitors went away well pleased with the meeting. Refreshments were served to the many visitors. Much credit is due the members of the P. L. Dunbar Lodge No. 2. Those present were Mr. C. Dickerson, Odd Goodwin, W. Thompson, W. L. McDonald, M. Laws, W. H. Johnson, I. M. Wooden, G. A. Rainsey, O. Moore, T. Harris, W. G. Mendows, Mr. Wintson, John Carr, Mr. Moore, John Cole, A. Hamilton, M. Lorrie, J. T. Tucker, W. D. Cleveland, C. Whiteside. The Black and Tan Orchestra of San Diego trimmed again last Wednesday night, when they played to a crowded hall of music lovers. Many strangers were out; in fact, they always are, as it seems to be the place to get acquainted. All seem to have just one round of pleasure. Those who missed it were asking themselves the question: "Where did Robinson Crusoe go with his man Friday?" On Wednesday night he went to hear the Black and Tan Orchestra. We are told that wherever there are strange men, there are strange women. So, don' forget the bir' special event that is now being planned by this great orchestra. Watch for the date later. Miss Leda Nowlin gave a birthday party at her residence last Friday night in honor of Mrs. Ethel Stansell. Many beautiful presents were presented, but there were no candles lighted. Mr. Geo Murray was in the city for a few days. Mr. Leon Smith, one of San Diego's youngest dancing masters, was somewhat peeved last Wednesday night when one of the society belles walked off the floor. Mrs. Stevens insisted on knowing why a certain party that she was dancing with wanted to dance so long on one pivot. Mrs. Smith objected to being shown man's delight. Mrs. Mothteyhouse, of Los Angeles, was peeled Wednesday night and in her handsome suit she certainly was sought by all the smart set. Many Los Angeles dudes are in the city looking as swine and fragrant as the orange blossom in the month of January. Every man to his profession, it was demonstrated last Wednesday night when Mr. Lloyd Williams took a seat behind the trap drum. A certain man paid 5 cents for a dance last Wednesday night, but he said it was worth it. Miss Sadie B. Ridley was out for the first time in several weeks. She certainly looked all class in that little Red Riding Hood. At the Pantages she said she would like to be one of the jungle maids. She lingered at the show until all had gone, but her sister objected, but we are satisfied that Mr. Palmer will give he a chance if she insists. Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Andrews, who have been spending several days at Maline, have returned to the city looking well, and say that they are feeling just fine. Mrs. Anderson would like that she feels so fine she would like to spend a month or more up there, but we inform her that society needs her at home. During their absence Mr. Thorn, Johnson has been in charge of the office, in which he is the Miss Ophelia Ellis, who is also connected with the office, seemed to have forsaken our city. She will no doubt be absent from the city $68 as a newbie. She youngest pine her absence. She is enjoying herself in the East. BETHEL A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. B. R. Gay, Pastor. By I. L. Bennett Both services were well attended last Sunday. Rev. Guy preached two very practical sermons. While he has been here but a very short time he has already ingratiated himself with the members of his church. Monday at 8 o'clock, at the church, a conference was held, at which there was a very, large attendance. After the meeting was over the members voted for a Board of Trustees to assist in the management of the church. The election was carried out to the satisfaction of all present. From all indications the affairs of the church will soon be in a prosperous condition. There will be a meeting of vital importance of the Colored citizens of San Diego, Sunday afternoon, Oct. 6 at 3 o'clock, at Masonic Hall, 65 Market street, Good speaking and music. All citizens invited to assist in organizing a Forum. Committee: Messrs. Jas, W. Gray, E. J. Freeman, R. W. Anderson, W. E. Cleveland, N. Robinson, W. D. Sanders, H. H. Harvey, Thon Wilson, Chan H. Dodge, Roy Pierson, T. H. Williams, and Messdames E. W. Anderson, E. J. Freeman, W. D. Sanders, N. Robinson, G. S. Thompson, Jas, W. Gray, C. H. Dodge, and W. E. Cleveland. Mr. Joe Stanssell has returned from Tau Juana, much improved in health and pocket. Mr. Jas, Garrett should read the "Life of George Washington." Mr. Wilkerson can only buy the El Toro at one stand now. Mr. G. A. Ramsey can be seen taking his exercise in his machine. The Santa Ana judge will never get acquainted with him. How many miles an hour? Just five, now, boys. Stand away from the front, I may be back ahead and knock you all down behind—twenty-three. Mr. T. B. Norman is lonesome at times, especially when his neighbors carry his Eagle away. We advise him to put it high in the elm tree. But he advises his neighbor to subscribe for the paper, as he does. It is said still water runs deep. It's a fake, still water does not run at all. Harry Hall, the winner of the gold medal at the National A, A. U. track meet last August, has been conned at the McNabb hospital for several weeks, and we note with pleasure that he is able to be out and around again. He was blood poisoned and for a time it looked kind of—you know—time to speak low, but the crisis has passed and Harry is himself again, but like Irew, will he ever enter again? Ask us something easy. All we can say is, the Race was in front—he won the hop-skip and jump. Mr. Shirley Brock has sold papers, and in fact done everything that can be done by a good hunter, but can be beat the famous Sam, who everybody knows in San Diego for miles around, and then some? Mr. C. A. Zollcoffer had more greenbacks than the U. S. treasurer last Monday morning. How about it? No races, no cards, what? Mr. J. S. Spencer, who has been in town several months, leaves for Los Angeles. I took up the California Eagle and saw the picture of a store upside down. What was it? Drugs were not running out of the bottles. It was only a new way to attract one to look at the picture of a drug store. All kinds of new things these days. The following are at the Richmond Hotel: Mr. E. V. Dunn, Colorado; Mr. J. Rogers, San Francisco; Mr. W. S. Chapman, Willington, Comm.; Mr. Geo, Brown, Los Angeles; Mr. John Taylor, Guthrie, Okla.; Mr. Chas, Pattum, Willows; Mr. Frank Patterson, Colusa: Doc Barnett, Kansas City, Mo.; Mr. John R. Schell, El Centro; Mr. Wm. Porter, Pasadena: Elbel Dimery, La Jolla; W. Littlejohn, Long Beach; C. A. Ranck, Santa Barbara; J. G. Smith, San Diego; Mrs. S. Duncan, Los Angeles. Mrs. C. E. Norwood is making a rapid collection and has asked the management of the office for a few days' extension, for the benefit of her friends, who say they do not want the Eagle discontinued. Mrs. Campbell called at the office and paid for her year's subscription and said that she liked the paper very much and would not be without it. The Tia Jana races will open, as we said in our last issue, on May 11. For there will be sport for the ladies and their escorts. There will be fast horses from everywhere and there will be people from most everywhere. Judging by the way the Jockey Club is doing things, we are led to believe that Tia Jana is destined to be the greatest racing place on the Mexican side. With the many new additions to the track and the large number of foreign horses that are now domiciled at the poddocks and the noted horses that are booked to arrive shortly, it is going to be the most of meets. So prepare your gulp and take a trip to Mexico and then you can say that you have been out of the United States for once in your life anyway. That is, of course, who you have never been THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE H.

FOR PRESIDENT Charles Evans Hughes of New York FOR VICE-PRESIDENT Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indiana The next president of the United States, Charles E. Hughes, is making his march of triumph westward and the same will not end until he reaches the White House on March the 4th, 1917. President Wilson, like Andrew Johnson, has proved himself unequal to the occasion of guiding the destiny of a mighty nation and will be repudiated by the people in November by an overwhelming majority. Coming down to local issues it is apparent that there are others that have friction within their ranks as to honor and prestige beside the colored race. Just now who is to have the honor of being in the limelight with the coming of our next president is agitating the minds of the managers of the party. We should worry; we really think the great victory that awaits us will be big enough and grand enough that all can rejoice in the same. The return of the progressives makes this victory possible, and we can see no reason why there should be any discrimination or preference to any particular part of the great army of Republican warriors. SECURE YOUR TICKETS AND MAKE RESERVATIONS NOW DR. DUVALL'S WORKS Much publicity was given to charges preferred against Rev. C. H. Duvall, president of the National Industrial School at Pasadena, and inasmuch as the same charges are now in court, a generous public will no doubt suspend judgment until the issues are tried out impartially in the courts. The editor of the Eagle has an abiding faith that Dr. Duvall will prove his innocence, and we further wish to go on record as saying that his work cannot be discounted; and it speaks right out for itself, his home at Pasadena has for years been a refuge and shelter for the helpless orphan and the great work of Rev. Duvall and his noble wife are entitled to a greater reward than continual nagging which has been theirs, by some who have taken upon themselves the task of his undoing. ANARCHY REIGNS NOT: COMING INTO OUR OWN. It is gratifying to reflect that of all the noble deeds, the great events that mean the very existence of our country, the colored race has played an important and meritorious part. From Boston Common to Carrizal, the Negro has proved his worth for the salvation, honor and glory of his country; and then it is again gratifying to note that although from all angles the provocation has been great to do the untoward thing, not a single instance can be pointed to where this people has been even in the remotest degree connected with any of the dastardly crimes, such as committed at San Francisco a few days ago. Anarchy or disloyalty is not his forte. This being so we believe that we shall yet come into the reward that such righteousness deserves. We believe that the time is not far distant when we shall have the preference over this class of citizenship. Take San Francisco today in the waiters' and cooks' strike the colored waiters have been their succor and relief. Also the longshoremen the same. Now after they have parleyed and reached an agreement with their striking employees, the colored workmen, it seems, are to be let out; this is not right, and even in the present crisis at San Francisco some of the biggest employers have given it out that the colored waiters and cooks, if they make good, will remain with them forever and ever. These are some of the things that come to us in reflecting at the past and present, and we are glad that it is as it is, for in the end we shall come into our own and not by the way of the assassin, the plunderer or anarchist.

Davis stands alone voice is rich, full and The Most Fitting To HEAR WILCOX DECLARES THAT PRESIDENT WILSON HAS PREACHED "NEW FREE- DOM" BUT HAS PRAC- TICED "NEW BONDAGE" TOWARD THE NEGRO. By William R.Wilcox, Chairman Republican National Committee New York, September 18-It required more than ordinary assurance for the man who has done more than any other Presid- ent since the Civil War to fasten the shackles of bondage on the American freedman to stand at the humble log cabin at Hodgvinville, Ky., and pronounce an eulogy upon the great emancipator. In the light of President Wilson's own contemptible treatment of the Negro, his praise of Lincoln, the plain man of the common people, the product of poverty and obscurity, was false and shallow. Bringing to Washington all the prejudices of his Southern birth and rearing, surrounding himself with men of the same inherited feelings, Mr. Wilson early gave to his administration, so far as the Colored man was concerned, the stamp of snobbery, vindictiveness and ignorance, and these traits have characterized it from the time of the removal of J. P. Napier, Register of the Treasury, to the present day. Not even the splendid patriotism of the black heroes of the Tenth Cavalry, who went to their death at Carrizal as the result of the President's policy of timidity and blundering in Mexico, sufficed to move him from his course of Negro baiting. The Colored man, under Woodrow Wilson, may die for his country, but he may not serve it in civilian life save under the sign of the "Tennessee." of the Jim Crow.

Her and well modulated. Testimonial is to HER President Wilson gave evidence of one of his most characteristic traits by surrendering to Southern Negro haters of the Vardaman type. In the matter of plain justice to his colored fellow-citizens, he was "too proud to fight." He did recognize the justice of the claim of the Negroes to the treasury position, which a colored man had held for more than twenty-five years, and at first nominated an Oklahoma Negro; but he promptly withdrew it when notice was served upon him by the democratic race fanatics in Congress that no Negroes would be confirmed. It was Mr. Wilson's theory that the problem presented was "human, not political." The rapacity with which the hungry democratic office-seekers scrambled for the 15,000 Government positions, carrying salaries amounting to more than $8,000,000 per annum, which under Republican administrations had been filled with self-respecting and intelligent Negroes, indicated that he was right, but not in a sense reflecting credit on human nature. The segregation begun by McAdoo and Burleson under Wilson has spread through the country. It is the fixed policy of the present administration. The obnoxious theory of "Jim Crow" intolerance has fastened like a cancer in the political and social fabric of the nation. Bishop T. W. Kyles, presiding bishop of the A. M. E.

The Bishop is a young man, as well as a young bishop, but is very scholarly and well trained for the work of the high calling unto which he has been appointed by his denomination. The Zion churches on the Coast will greatly prosper under such an energetic and able bishop to direct them. Presiding Elder Matthews came down from the North yesterday to meet the new bishop and will accompany him on his episcopal visits to all the churches, big and little, in the California conference. Bishop Kyles will preach in Oakland next Sunday and in San Francisco Sunday evening. A big reception will be tendered the learned prelate by the citizens of San Francisco next Monday evening. His Honor, Mayor Jas. Roiph, Jr., the generous benefactor to the Zion church in San Francisco, will make the welcome address on behalf of the citizens of San Francisco. The Bishop will come back south Oct. 11, to preside over the sessions of the annual conference to convene at Monrovia. The sessions will continue throughout the week, or until Sunday, Oct. 15th. The public will be given a hearty welcome at all the sessions. There will be a large number of delegates from the North and from the adjacent towns, who will attend this conference. The people at Monrovia are making great preparations to entertain the visitors. SAN DIEGO Mr. James Warren and Mr. Graves have gone to Imperial Valley for a while. Mother Anderson, of Los Angeles, is visiting her son and also friends in San Diego. She says she will try and stay a month. The Carnation Club will render a literary program Tuesday evening, Oct.

Mrs. Mellissa Mason, of Vallejo, formerly of San Diego, has secured her divorce and left Monday for Arizona to join her daughter. A woman in a hat is greeting a man in a hat. Most Worshipful Woodrow Wilson, President of all these United States and Shepherd of the Democratic flock; then he holdest great julky alices of pie in the hollow of thy simple hands, when not holding thy new wife, and dealth it out according to thy righteous will; we, thy poor, weatherbeaten and unworthy constituents, come tumbling down on our tummies to pour out our political devices to thee and bless thy glorious Democratic name and to wish thee a large family of little Democrats in due season. Give our unto our supplications, Great Political King. Master Wilson, we thank thee that we are anxious and waiting Democrats. We are anxious to know what thou wilt have us do. We are waiting for anything that thy excellency may see fit to give us. We are waiting for thee to give us 20 cent cotton and 5 cent cattle. We are waiting for better times in general. Some of us haven't paid our taxes for two years. We will confess that it is not as well with us as it might be. By some unaccountable reason several of us have not got jobs worth speaking about. And then knew a Democrat with no office and no work is in a devil of a fix. We simply can't harrah for "Wilson Prosperity" under such circumstances. It makes us feel like sheep-killing dogs. We could, stand it to be without work, and have our patrons run short and see times get hard, if it wasn't for the informal Republicans making fun of our lst and saying "we told you so." Master Wilson, that hurts like blue blazes. What is the straw that is breaking our backs. Maybe this is the reward for our wickedness. But if something is not done pretty quick thou mayest not find us waiting at the gate. There are other parties calling for us. We hate to pray like this, but starvation is hell on manners, and we can' help it. If our prayer is unpollished it is due to the desperation of starvation. But with all our crudeness and lack of manners we want to emphasize the fact that we are absolutely ready for our reward and we will accept thy pie blessings as graciously as ever a little dog accepted a chicken's liver. Mighty Master, thou knowest, we can't be Democrats without reward. Thou knowest we voted for those with the understanding that we inherit the offices and the emoluments thereof. Yet we see Republicans holding over everywhere while we are down in the gatter. Again, we declare that we are ready. We will take anything that thou hast. We would be dog-catcher for the back districts of Hespidam. We would be tick inspector. We would be fertilizer smeller; Just anything thou hast to dispense we will thankfully accept, and the quicker the better. And Master Wilson, there is one important question we would ask thee. It may be treason in us to want to know such a thing, but we can't help it. It is this: When dost thou expect the Free Trade tariff to begin to lower the cost of living? We know it is wrong to be impatient, but, Great Chief, if something is not done pretty quick we are going to have hard work keeping the party together; besides, we are going to have a harder time keeping our own souls and bodies together. Something to eat is getting shorter and shorter with us, and the price is mounting to the sky. Worthy Master, we wish that thou wouldst explain this tariff business a little. We can't understand it to save our lives. We thought reducing the tariff made things cheaper. We have always been taught to believe in that theory. Again. Mighty Chief, we beseech thee to hear our prayers. For heaven's sake don't saddle us with a bond issue. We read in the papers that thou art considering a big bond issue to get money to run the government, and dodgast them bonds. Thon shouldst remember that Cleveland sold bonds, and it busted our party into smithereens. We never can survive a bond issue. Bonds means slavery, and slavery is worse than war, and war is worse than hell. It will bury us so deep we will never hear the gun fire this year. Cut down salaries rather than sell bonds. Oh, mighty Woodrow, thon who hast already skinned us out of our jobs with thy business-busting Free Trade fare, don't get us scaled in a war. Thon knowest, dear and mighty pie-distributer, that we have never had any luck with war, anyway. Thon knowest that in the great history of the American people thou hast written how we Democratic duplex followed the party call and went to war against the Stars and Stripes for four long years, and how "Honored" the Hands Held the Progressive Educational Association The Greatest Proposition Ever Organized For the Benefit of the Race.

It being monthly communion, the usual large crowd was present and partook of the Lord's supper. The services were indeed edifying. The pastor, officers and members of this church do not intend for their church to be a burden upon the public, hence another progressive movement has been launched. They have decided that a special offering for the building fund be made on each first Sunday. The result of this effort last Sunday was $170. Mt.

The BLANCHE TAYLOR Indicatee Interest in National Get-together Mesting of Colored Americans to Make a Stand Against Prescription Points to Many Delegates From Many States. Boston, Mass., Aug. 24, 1916. The proposed National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress will be held in Washington, 11, C., the latter part of September. After a canvass of the situation and receiving suggestions from many race champions over the country, Rev. Byron Gunner, of Hillburn, N. Y., president of the National Equal Rights League, which proposes and calls the congress in lieu largely of it's ninth annual meeting, announces the capital of the Nation as the consensus of opinion to hold this race congress on equality of rights. No place could be more fitting. An Open Congress This National Colored Congress is to be an open one, both to delegated persons and to individual representatives of the cause who attend on their own responsibility. It is to be free and open for race conference, action and declaration. The congress will organize itself independently. The Equal Rights League will call it to order and those assembled will then create the congress. Aims cf the Meeting Racial fraternizing, mutual acquaintance, unity of spirit and of program, exchange of notes on local conditions, race unity of feeling and a future national working together for rights, a united declaration to the country of colored Americans on color proscription, are among the purposes of this gathering. No move will impress the white American public on our presence, numbers, capacity and spirit for equal rights like an actual national convention attended by large numbers of colored citizens from various states. How to Get Up Delegates Delegated representatives are quite advisable, and churches, civic and literary societies, fraternal organizations, political and other clubs are asked to elect and send delegates. The call asks that a Citizens Equal Rights Committee be formed by public spirited citizens in each community to work up interest, hold a public meeting and send representation. Any person is at liberty to start such a committee. Act at once. Secretary Wm. Monroe Trotter at 27 Cornhill, Boston, will be glad to receive suggestions and inquiries.

Aryhow it is a matter for serious thought and it is a matter that our city legislators could well take in hand in this secular city. The state laws prohibit discrimination in places and provides a penalty for the same. There is no rule by the police commission of this city could not make a perforteiture of license for public places to discriminate in any. The events and happenings of the day demand some traction along these lines. We all realize that the act of Mrs. S. A. Cole in wrecking a dairy lunch room on Broadway because they refused to serve her, is not within the law. Mrs. Cole realizes the same, but she has imbibed the spirit of old John Brown at Harper's Ferry, of Toussaint LaOverture and says that the continued insults of a loyal race must be stopped if it takes force to do so. And who knows how far reaching this spirit will go. A people who have all but obliterated their illiteracy, and who have been taking copious draughts from civilization's fountain may not continue in the even tenor of their way, they may, by constant oppression imbibe the same spirit that overtook Mrs. Cole. And this being so, no one can tell what the end will be. Anyhow it is a matter for serious thought and it is a matter that our city legislators could well take in hand in this particular city. The state laws prohibit discrimination in public places and provides a penalty for the same. There is no reason why the police commission of this city could not make a penalty for forfeiture of license for public places to discriminate in this city.

INTERIOR VIEW OF PRENITICE'S PHARMACY, ONE OF THE CITY'S NEWEST DRUG STORES. Located on Central Avenue, near Eleventh Street, is one of the latest and most modern drug stores in Los Angeles. S. G Prentice, the proprietor, moved to this city several years ago from Chicago and shortly after his arrival purchased the Delta Pharmacy at the corner of Third and Stephenson Avenue. The continued growth of the business soon compelled him to seek 1. The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text or graphics. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a building or a street scene. Due to the low quality, no text can be clearly identified. larger quarters. Securing a lease on the opposite corner, Mr. Prentice moved his stock over, prosperity following him. Seeing the possibilities at 1121 Central Avenue, he decided to open a new store, intending to retain the old one, but a favorable opportunity to sell presenting itself, the deal is consummated and S. G. now devotes his entire time and efforts to the upbuilding of the new pharmacy. As may be seen from the accompanying illustration, the proprietor has shown rare good taste in the matter of furniture and fixtures. The fixtures throughout are of mahogany finish and were installed by the Showcase and Fixtures Department of the Brunswig Drug Co. All showcases are of the newest model, tall and narrow, perfectly suited to adequately display the tastefully arranged sundries and confectionery. One of the main features is the unique showcase windows, which not only make a very attractive front, but are veritable silent salesmen. On entering the store at the right is a beautiful Bishop-Babcock Soda Fountain of white Italian marble from which are dispensed soft drinks on a pair with those offered at the best up-town stores.

The white sanitary tables with the triangular seated chairs make a very inviting appearance. Nothing has been overlooked that would add tothe comfort and convenience of the patrons. Telephone booths at either side of the prescription counter permit of some measure of privacy which all of us appreciate at times. Back of the prescription counter everything is conveniently ar- 1. ranged for the careful compounding and the prompt filling of prescriptions. This feature of the business Mr. Prentice takes particular pride in. He has a modern and complete equipment and enjoys the confidence of the physicians which accounts for his large prescription business. S. G. Prentice is a graduate of the University of Illinois, and in addition to being a thorough pharmacist, is a capable business man of gentle temperament—a strong combination to draw and hold customers. J. T. Smith, the proprietor's right hand man, is a big asset to the store, and Mr. Prentice is to be congratulated on having associated with him a gentleman of his caliber. The California Druggist congratulates Mr. Prentice on his successful business career and wishes him continued success. —From California Druggist.

Hilberte Rozier Narrowly Es capes-Death Presence of mind is all that saved Hilbert Bozier, Eagle reporter, from being crushed to death a few days ago when his wheel skidded just in front of an auto truck. He had just turned off 9th street onto Central Avenue, in order to pass a heavy truck he turned into the center of the street, he had no more than passed the truck when a newly repaired handle bar worked loose and his wheel fell in front of the truck. As the wheel fell he jumped landing on his hands and knees and crawled rapidly to safety, while his wheel was crushed to pieces beneath the truck less than a yard away. Hilbert, is the son of Rev. W.H. Rozier, and stands in high esteem in Los Angeles, being corresponding secretary of the R. Y. P. U convention of Southern California, he also holds the same office in the Baptist Sunday School Union and is critic and debating manager of the Progressive Club.

Never has Los Angeles had a sweeter bride. Her gown was a personification of simplicity and richness, the style was strictly French; the waist was of white georgette crepe and a bodice of silver tieue, the skirt of white satin and georgette crepe, a training veil of white net with a wreath of sweet pear.

BARTLETT TEACHER OF Piano and Organ Reference Douglass School of Organ Playing Bdwy. 8133 936 East Pico Street DIEGO DEPARTMENT SAN The Creole Black and Tan orchestra under the leadership of T. Harris held sway in San Diego at Kastle Hall on the evening of the 4th; the most jovial ball of the season. Los Angeles maids seemed to have hypnotized the crowds with their graceful dancing, but Floyd Williams and his company did not have to take any back seat. Everything went well until Mrs. Tait and Mrs. Stancel lost their balance the floor and then you know what followed. There is no doubt but that San Diego has one of the best orchestras on the coast, it was demonstrated after each piece of music. The applause was so great that the spectators would have to place their fingers in their ears until the encores were played over and over again, hours after all the refreshments were gone the crowd even lingered. There were so many pretty girls out till Dan Badgett, Dan Cole and a few other society beau brummels had the time of their lives picking the buds to suit themselves. Speaking of the costumes these are some that caught the eye of the reporter, the blue costume of a handsome hue worn by a short handsome lady, the pink dress was the center of attraction —— she became so sedate until she was drenched in champagne punch; the handsome lady from East San Diego was in her lyle silks lingered and missed her car. Reg. Townsend was out and said that he was enjoying himself but had not the courage to venture farther than the door. Mr. McCarthy was refused a dance by one of the handsome ladies as she did not want him to spoil her pretty red and white slippers. At 2 a. m. several autosped up to the door and took several guests of the fashionable ball out to a prepared lunch that had been set for them. The Hall Jubilee Singers have been in town several days and have sang at the A. M. E. church and at Germsnia hall. Rev. T. Allen Harvey left for Los Angeles to attend the A. M. E. conference. The delegates are Mies Mary Jackson, Mrs. Idonia Harvey, Mrs. N. Robinson. The Eagle is proud to learn that that Knights of Tabor reconsidered the action in regards to moving. And the action is better for the race in general and will be proud to see the lodge grow better and better, much credit is due the leaders of both factions, as they now shelter under one roof. It has been officially announced by President G. A. Davidson that the exposition will continue until December 31 and will celebrate the old year out and the new year in. Labor Day was well observed, thousands of visitors thronged the grounds and building and paid tribute to the day which working people celebrate in a setting unequalled in the United states. A feature of the attendance was the large number of out of town visitors in the great throng. Local labor people and families were there in large numbers, but by far the greater number of those who kept the turnstiles busy were visitors to the city, they came from every county in California.. All were liberal with their praises and compliments of its varied program. The program of sports began at 2 p.m. the track and 1stmud-speedway being used for the various events. The greased pig proved a very exciting event because there were five colored lads who fought for supremacy and to say it was a treat would be putting it light, it was a hummer. Between the special features and Tommasino's band people had all they could attend to in the way of amusements. The best part of the program was hard to say as all was above the average. Miss Hattie B. Ridley, who has been secretly married several Rev. Woodby for Kansas City to attend the Baptist Grand Annual Convention. He will be gone several weeks. W. G. Lincoln of Santa Ana has spent several days in the city. Mrs. A. Freeman and Miss Ellen Crain seemed to have captured all the pleasure in San Diego and left Tuesday morning. H. M.

Hodge left for Vallejo to visit her daughter, Mrs. Price, after which she will go to Oakland to visit her son, she expects to stop on her wav home at Jan Jose. Miss Ruth Coleman is a house guest of Miss Leola Newlin. Since one of the fashionable ladies' porlor has been blended with music she does not recognize voices over tee phone any more. Rev. Kinchin was in town for a few hours last week. Among the guests at the Richmond hotel are: D. L. Gould, J. H. Trimble, Hazel Gottschalk, G. W. Young, Theresa Anderson, Mr, and Mrs. W. B.

BERTHA ALEXANDER. Theoughts Wise, and Otherwise. By Hilbert L. Rozier. Oh no, I haven't been sick—just been on a little vacation. The L.A. White Sox realize, now more than ever before, what Julius Baker, their sturdy little backstop, means to their team. Baker is out of the game with a sprained wrist and as a result his team is sorely handicapped; he will be able to don the mask again in a few weeks. When it comes to wonderful production the Furlong tract is in a class by itself. Just take a glance at a few of their representatives: Pianists—Misses Lottie Bolds, Doris Youse, Josephine Baker, Ruth Sykes and Irene Salisbury, Soloists—Miss Mayne Lowe, Mra Nellie Battles Williams and Elmer Jackson. Debaters—T. A. Greene Jr., L. C. Greene, Engene Walker, Master Jesse Sykes is a wonder with the violin for his age, while Jesse Smith is an artist with the cornet and banjo-madolin. These are only a few of those who star in their respective lines. The Tract also plays no little part in planting stars in the athletic world. Julius Baker, catcher for Manual Arts High was rated as one of the best backstops in high school ranks. Marion (Dock) McLaughlin is what Howard Drew A. would call "rome spinner", at the age of 15 he stepped 100 yards in 10 3-5 seconds, nuff sed. We are also equipped with a few "Jack Johnsone" among whom are Don McLaughlin and Bill Jackson McLaughlin is a clever lightweight while Jackson is a middleweight. For information as to his punch see 'Blue' Washington. We also have a newspaper repcr — I mean beautiful weather. Answers to Queries Can you tell me whether Clarence Smith is the name of an alley or an animal? A. Neither. Clarence Smith is the name of a peculiar kind of squirrel food. Do the White Sox really wear white stockings? A. No. the White Sox don't but the players do. I am a foreigner and would like to know who is president of the U. S.? A. Sorry sir, but we have no president, but Wilson is temporary chairman. Who do you consider the best actor in our city? A. Jim Hunt, he has been acting as manager of the Hoegee Giants for 2 years and nobody ever caught on.

Holmes of Hanford preached in the evening. The members and friends of Phillips chapel are always glad to hear Rev. Holmes. There will be services all day Sunday, it being Grand rally day, Sunday school at 9:30 a. m.; preaching at 11 a. m. by the pastor, Rev. J. C. Anderson. Preaching at 8 p. m. by Dr. Selecman, pastor of Trinity M. E. church. There will be a sacred concert by the choir and Epworth League, under the management of Mrs. A. C. H. Bilbrew, who has prepared for the hearers a splendid program. A cordial invitation is extended to all. The members and friends of the above named church are still holding services at 1040 E. 9th street. They hope to worship in their new church at an early date. All the meetings are being held as usual on Sunday. Bro. Williams preached an able sermon last Sabbeth morning and at the Endeavor service Bro. Turnage did equally as well in his discourse on "Usefulness of Choir," and others who spoke on the topic brought out many good points. Bro. Turnage said that cheerfulness was contagious and that a person full of life and sunshine, love and cheer entering a room where sullenness prevailed, the whole atmosphere was changed. All cordially invited. Sunday was a banner day for the People's Independent church. Odd Fellows hall did not afford space sufficient to accommodate the enormous crowds that gathered for worship at this church. Many souls were blessed by the practical and impressive sermons delivered by the pastor. The total receipts from the great new church rally at the conclusion of the evening service, amounted to $2,042.49 and there are still more to be made. Another remarkable feature is the fact that the rally fund has not interfered with the regular public collections, which, as usual, continue to exceed the fifty dollar mark. As soon as arrangements for building are completed, a great ground breaking service will be held on the church property, corner 18th and Paloma streets. Announcement of the date will be made soon. The public schools closed last week. There were 24 graduates from the grammar school, among them little Ammie Lewis, a colored girl, who, with two others, made the highest mark of the class, repenting the class with essays. Ammie's subject was, "A Eamous Negro Leader," under which she narrated the life and work of Booker T. Washington. The manner in which she rendered her essay was a credit to the Race. She received many compliments from the whites, and was remembered by her many friends with lovely presents. Miss Ammie will visit her aunt in Los Angeles during the hot summer months. The El Bethel Christ Sunday school spent last Sunday out at the C. &. M. ranch, where Sunday school services were held and a dainty picnic lunch was enjoyed after which the Children's day program was rendered to a very appreciative audience. All were royally entertained by the residents of the place with ice cream, cantaloupes and plenty of shade. After spending a very pleasant day the party returned to Calerice hoping to have another outing in the near future.

Red ey Pee The members of the Sisters Royal Helping Hand Society most Saturday afternoon at the masonic hall and duly installed all of their new officers. The business was all transmitted by the sisters and was both spiritual and inspiring in every feature. Mrs. Nichol installed the officers with much ability, and Mrs. P. E. Robinson offered up a prayer in their behalf, after which each officer was shown their stations. The officers elected were as follows: President, Mrs. E. D. Marshall; vice-president, Mrs. M. Woodby; recording secretary, Mrs. L. L. Alexander; assistant secretary, Mrs. Childress; financial secretary, Mrs. Goodan; treasurer, Mrs. Nelson; chaplain, Mrs. P. E. Robinson. Each member was allowed to invite a friend, and the program was suspended and the visitors allowed to speak, the speakers including Mrs. Corban of Valleja, Mrs. C. E. Norwood and Mrs. Lewis of Los Angeles. Each one spoke of the spiritual feeling, and the love and kindness which prevailed throughout the entire meeting. After the services each member took their invited guest to the dining room, where the table was laden down with everything mentionable. After all had partaken of the spread, there were baskets to be taken home. The visitors were highly entertained and asked to be remembered again at the next installation of officers. The young people are taking great interest in attending the B.Y.P.U. meeting every Sunday evening, and we are very proud to have them with us, as there is no better place in which young people can assemble than in the House of the Lord. Many of them stay for the evening services, which are also very encouraging for the future church. All of the services at Mt. Zion church are very interesting, made so by the most able sermone delivered by the acting pastor, Rev. C. Williams. The church also has a choir, led by Mrs. C. Williams, which also adds much to the services. Through the kindness and generosity of M. T. Laws, who has a high standing with the Exposition officials, a committee of ten were scorted through the Exposition grounds on last Friday afternoon with the view of locating a good place to have the union picnic. The committee was favorably impressed with the Exposition grounds and picnic park for this grand outing, and as soon as the teachers, pastors and superintendent can get together the date will be set. Those acting as the committee were, Rev. and Mrs. C. Williams, of Mt. Zion Baptist church; Rev. and Mrs. T. Allen Harvey, of the Methodist A. M. E. church; Mrs. L. Goodwin, Mrs. C. Wright, Mrs. M. Warren, Mrs. C. E. Norwood and Mr. and Mrs. M. T. Laws. On next Friday evening, June 29, the young people of the B.Y.P. U. will give a lacky social and entertainment at the Mt. Zion parsonage for the benefit of the delegates going to the Sunday school and B.Y.P. U. conventions. All are cordially invited to be present. Prizes will be awarded. Notice to the Public:—The Santa Fe Railroad company has granted us a rate of one and one-third fare provided we can show 50 certificates. Therefore, when purchasing your ticket for San Bernardino, all delegates and friends traveling from all points and over all railroads are asked to be sure and secure a certificate from your agent with your ticket and present the certificate to the secretary of the convention. We have two young ladies of Lagar Heights to graduate from the public schools this year, and we take this method to say that we are very proud of them and hope they may continue until they reach the highest round of the ladder. The girls are the Misses Gertrude Williams and Addie Belle Goodwin. Mrs. C. Wright received a letter this week from a brother whom she has not seen since he was three years old, and he is now grown to manhood and married. He is in Los Angeles, and we imagine the scene when they meet again. Mrs. Corban of Vallejo is still in our city and is enjoying the beautiful sights that San Diego affords. Mr. and Mrs. Haywood, daughter and son-in-law of Rev. and Mrs. C. Williams, like San Diego so well that they have gone to housekeeping on 30th street. We wish them much success. They are both good church workers and have joined the Mt. Zion Baptist church. Mrs. P. E. Hornsby and Mrs. A. N. Hornsby left San Diego last Sunday morning for Los Angeles, where they will visit relatives and friends for two weeks. The Carnation club held its regular business meeting on Tuesday evening, and had two new members added to the club. On the second Sunday in July the club will have its annual sermon delivered by Eev. C. Williams. The club will also give a 25c rally and a short program on that Sunday in the afternoon. The public cordially invited to attend. The Carnation club, in recognition of the fact that the Eagle has been printing different little articles from time to time for the club, have donated one dollar to the Eagle and hope to be able to do more in the near future. The club was royally entertained during its business meeting by a duet by Rev. and Mrs. C. Williams One of the Lone Star society belles royally entertained in San Diego—Miss Velma Strickling of Houston, Texas, teacher in the public schools, guest of Mrs. Jenkins of this city, the one so royally entertained. Many have been entertained while in the city, but her reception has surpassed them all. While here she was the dinner guest of Mr. and Mrs. Robinson and Rev. and Mrs. Nelson, and many other prominent people of the city. After visiting the Exposition and its beautiful scenes in which she was much delighted, she took the boat trip to Fort Rosecrane, also Coronado, formerly Tent City. On Tuesday she was a guest of Mrs. Jenkins and friends to Tia Juana, Mex., where by chance she was introduced to the manager of the Eagle, who also hailed from the Lone Star state, which made the meeting much home-like. She leaves in a few days for Los Angeles and San Francisco before returning to her home. Her departure will be much regretted by all those who had the pleasure of meeting her. The Masonics will hold their annual sermon Sunday, June 25. All members in good standing are cordially invited to attend. Dr. A. O. De Steel, pastor of the A.M.E. church of Redlands, is visiting in our city, the guest of Rev. T. Allen Harvey. Together they visited the Eagle office, where they met the busy Eagle correspondents. Dr. Steele preached the morning sermon at the Bethel A.M.F. church, which was inspiring and delightful to all who heard him. Much credit is due Dr. Steele for bringing together many of the scattering flock, and it seems now as though "where there is union there is strength." Mrs. H. A. Gafford left last week for her former home in Victoria. Tex. to visit her mother. YESMAR HOTEL G. A. Ramsey and A. Brown, Propa.

SHEPHEED, Proprietor Corner Second and Market, San Diego, 4 TO LET We note there is much anxiety felt as to the safety zone in the event of war, but San Diego is as safe from hostilities as most inland towns. First, we are 18 miles from the border, which has no cannon effect. Second, no doubt Lower California will be declared a neutral state. Third, our disappearing guns, which are situated at Fort Rosecrans, can hit a moving target on the darkest night at a distance of more than 21 miles at sea. We could touch one button that would explode a mine that would destroy every ship before getting in range of our port. As to the people in San Diego there are more people visiting Mexico now than there has been for many days. And remember, we have the largest and latest wireless station in the world, which would put us in touch with any ship b-fore even reaching the Philippine Islands. We notice among the business men in our city J. B. Bass of Los Angeles, editor of the California Eagle, accompanied by J. H. Shannon, San Francisco representative. Before getting down to business they made a flying trip to Tia Juana, Mex., in order to take in the situation. After leaving here they will no doubt make their official tour of the state.

WATTS NEWS The jubilee concert was a great success. Prof. Woods and choir of the Baptist church assisted. Samuel Steward, Skinner and Braggs were perusing the scriptures Sunday evening and when they were fully persuaded who was right how much better they felt. Children of the Macedonia Baptist church gave a social at the residence of Mrs Woods. Now they have a mite in their treasury. Methodists gave sacrament for the last time this conference year. Mr. Williams and workers gave a chicken dinner Labor Day and added more to their treasury. Mrs Leak entertained about thirty-six at a party Tuesday evening. They reported a delightful time. The trustees of the Methodist church paid $100 on the church lot on Thaxter street Tuesday. Mrs. Shields and Mrs. Smith were visiting the sick Friday. Everybody enjoyed Labor Day, seemed as if they wanted each moment remembered. All the churches were busy with something. Mrs. Beeks has been ill with hay fever. The young son of Mr. Beavers has been confined to his bed. Rev. Washington is very busy preparing for the great rally Sunday. Everybody invited. Mrs. Harris will entertain Mrs. Jones of Highland Park Monday. Mrs. R. D. Perry was surprised by a number of friends! Watts has everything to encourage it.

BERTHA ALEXANDER By Hilbert L. Rozier. Oh no, I haven't been sick—just been on a little vacation. The L.A. White Sox realize, now more than ever before, what Julius Baker, their sturdy little backstop, means to their team. Baker is out of the game with a sprained wrist and as a result his team is sorely handicapped; he will be able to don the mask again in a few weeks. When it comes to wonderful production the Furlong tract is in a class by itself. Just take a glance at a few of their representatives: Pianists—Misses Lottie Bolds, Doris Young, Josephine Baker, Ruth Sykes and Irene Salisbury, Soloizte—Miss Mayme Lowe, Mru Nellie Battles Williams and Elmer Jackson. Debaters—T. A. Greene Jr., L. C. Greene, Eugene Walker, Master Jesse Sykes is a wonder with the violin for his age, while Jesse Smith is an artist with the cornet and banjo-madolin. These are only a few of those who star in their respective lines. The Tract also plays no little part in planting stars in the athletic world. Julius Baker, catcher for Manual Arts High was rated as one of the best backstops in high school ranks. Marion (Dock) McLaughlin is what Howard Drew A. E. would call "reno spinner," at the age of 15 he stepped 100 yards in 10 3-5 seconds, nuff sed. We are also equipped with a few "Jack Johnsons" among whom are Don McLaughlin and Bill Jackson McLaughlin is a clever lightweight while Jackson is a middleweight. For information as to his punch see "Blue" Washington. We also have a newspaper reporter—I mean beautiful weather. Answers to Queries Can you tell me whether Clarence Smith is the name of an alley or an animal? A. Neither. Clarence Smith is the name of a peculiar kind of squirrel food. Do the White Sox really wear white stockings? A. No, the White Sox don't but the players do I am a foreigner and would like to know who is president of the U. S.? A. Sorry sir, but we have no president, but Wilson is temporary chairman. Who do you consider the best actor in our city? A. Jim Hunt, he has been acting as manager of the Hoogee Giants for 2 years and nobody ever caught on.

FIRST STEP TOWARD THE SOLVING OF THE RACE In our last issue we announced to the reading public that we would publish the details of a proposition that is worthy of their consideration. Now, before presenting the facts in the case we wish, as a member of the "Progressive Educational Association," to state the underlying principles that prompted or created the spirit of this organization. The nine persons composing the organization that was effected some months ago, are Christian men and women, deeply interested in the future, of the Race with which they are connected, and furthermore this company has no idea or intention of promoting any segregation proposition, but are ambitions to demonstrate to the community and to the world that the Negroes of this country can get together on one thing. What the Progressive Educa tional Association Has Accomplished. The Association has already secured a tract of land in the State of Arizona which is a part of the territory purchased by the United States from the Republic of Mexico and known as the Gadson Purchase. The lands under discussion comprise about two million (2,000,000) acres. The Educational Association now holds claim upon one hundred thousand acres of this land. A few weeks ago four of the members of the company in company with a land expert, visited this territory in question and in substance brought back this report: "There is no alkali, no dobie soil, no rocks, no sand or sand dones and no gullies. The land needs no leveling for irrigation. By demonstration on the part of the U. S. Government it is the best cotton producer in the States and cattle raising is its specialty. Two crops a year can be produced without irrigation—one in December, and the other in June. Without irrigation this soil will produce fifty and sixty bushels of wheat to the acre, and the same of corn. his country is also free from the winds that tantalize the California farmer. he water is so pure that there is absolutely no trash or sediment in a boiler used for four years. There are no fogs and fruit or vegetables that can be produced anywhere in the U. S. can be produced in abundance upon this soil. The Company has opened its office at 12th and Hemlock streets in the real estate office of H. H. Williams and Company, and any further information concerning the land will be cheerfully given.

Conquest, Spain got possession of the territory comprising Mexico, and the States of Texas, California, New Mexico and Arizona. The Spanish found the inhabitants (Indians) civilized or semicivilized, dwelling in fixed abodes, cultivating the soil, practicing a formal religion and governed by permanent laws. In reviewing the actual history of this country we find that the Indians dwelling here were and are of a fairly high intellectual standard. We are also pursued to believe that the history of the country dates back further than any records at hand give. What the Company Proposes This company proposes to build an empire for Afro-Americans over which a Black president shall reign, and all officials shall be Black people. A great university for the training of the head, heart and hand is to be the center about which the chief city must grow. All people dwelling in and about the city will be spiritually and not carnally minded, for this is the rock upon which we are laying our foundation. It would be impossible for us to close this chapter of what may appeal to some of readers as a strange note without giving honor to whom honor is due. This idea that is being promoted by this company was conceived in the fertile brains of our own Dr. J. D. Gordon, of this city. It is not a new idea with this man of God. For a number of years it has haunted his mind. A few years ago the hand of Destiny brought him to the African coast where he took a retrospective view of the fatherland, but that same hand of Destiny caused him to right about face and go back to the land of his birth. Since that time he has struggled with himself with the hope that he might overcome the command that had been given him, because he knew that his people would not understand, but it was the irresistible hand of God that was leading and it leads him still. The Get Acquainted Literary Club will hold their installation of officers and an informal debate on the subject: Resolved, That women should hold offices, local and national. This debate is to be led by Miss Idell Albrighton for the affirmative and Mr. H. C. Johnson for the negative, after which it will be open for general discussion. All are invited to come and participate therein, Tuesday evening, at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. MRS. A. ELGIN ENTERTAINS EDITOR AND WIFE Sunday afternoon Mrs. Annie Elgin, who is one of the pioneer settlers of Los Angeles, and among the first acquaintances and friends made by both Editor and Mrs. Bass on coming to this city, entertained the editor and wife at dinner, Sunday afternoon. No other guests were present. The dinner-party was little unlike a family reunion. Mrs. Elgin makes her friends feel better like always.

FORECAST OF APPOINTMENT FOR COMING CONFERENCE YEAR NOTICE NOTICE California Conference ESTABLISHED 1905 LEADING RACE JOURNAL THE LARGEST AND BEST PHONE MAIN 1394 VOLUME 29 FORTY-NINTH SESSION OF THE CALIFORNIA A. M. E. CONFERENCE CONVENES AT FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH ON LAST WEDNESDAY The 49th session of the A. M. E. Conference convened at 9:30 o'clock Wednesday, with the Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks presiding. The churches from throughout the state were represented by their pastors and delegates. The Bishop did not waste much time in preliminaries, but got right down to the business of the session and after the roll call of the conference, introduced Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson, who delivered the annual sermon. Rev. Wilson was at his best and made a masterly effort. At its conclusion he was complimented on all sides for the same. At its conclusion the visitors were introduced. Among them were Rev. Kinchen, Prof. Green, and others. The afternoon session was taken up with reports from the various churches. They all showed a wonderful progress along all lines. The conference adjourned to meet for the reception at 8 p. m. Wednesday Evening's Reception. Wednesday evening was the grand reception in honor of the Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks and the members of the conference, their wives and delegates. The church was filled to overflowing to witness the program which was as follows: 1. Music—First A.M.E. church the city—Dr. H. D. Prowd. choir. 2. Prairie, Berl. J. C.

Each participant acquitted himself with high credit. At its conclusion the Bishop's response was a masterly exposition of African Methodism, and the part it has played in the mighty march of progress of this nation. More than 780,000 members are enrolled under its banner and are marching on to victory. At the conclusion of the program the audience repaired to the banquet hall, where they were served with refreshments by the ladies of the Auxiliary department. The Second Day Session of the Annual Conference. Not until noon Thursday did the Mrs. Sunsee fit to brighten the universe with her dazzling rays, but even though a heavy mist fell upon the earth, within the walls of the First A. M. E. Church there was a brightness not unlike the rays of the sun in warmth and splendor. Rt. Rev. Bishop Parks occupied his seat at the helm; about him sat his boys, as he was wont to call them. On the Bishop's face one great smile lingered, and sometimes when a little shadow would steal its way across his brow the smile continued to stay. The morning session was full of interest as the reports from the churches in the district came in. Report of Presiding Elder Wilson To the Bishop and Members of the California Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, in Annual Conference Assembled: Greetings— We rejoice that it has pleased our all wise and ever beneficent Father, in His just and wise management of the affairs of men, to preserve our lives, and enable us to again assemble here, in this, our 49th Annual Session with umbroken ranks. While many of the faithful membership, to whom we have administered, have been called to their great reward, numbering among them some who might be styled "the land marks" of our Methodism on the coast, a merciful Providence has preserved unbroken the ranks of our riteacy; together with our superannuate fathers in Israel. And by the grace of God we are here to answer to the first roll call in the beginning of the second century of our organic existence. Se, we would be desirful and unworthy of a place in the Church of Allen, were we unminful of the heroic deeds and the self-sacrificing lives of the fathers and apostles of our Methodism that made this day of grace possible to us. And we take it that the San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, SEPTEMBER 9, 1916 Conference of A. In 49th Annual Session. THE CHURCH OF THE NATIONAL SCHOOL OF CHRISTIANITY First A. M. E. Church, where Conference is in Session, measure of our love and appreciation for them, and the work they have accomplished, will be the measure of our loyalty and devotion to the legacy they have left us—the African Methodist Episcopal Church—with her one hundred years of achievement for God and humanity, battering down barriers, opening doors of hope and opportunities, taking the slaves and chatties of the earth, and making of them kings and priests unto God, teaching so successfully the lessons of self help and self-dependence to a people who hitherto knew not how to provide for themselves, demonstrating to the world the Negro's ability to govern himself, and manage large business concerns, and above all else, teaching, as no other organization the Fatherhood omi God and the Brotherhood of Man. While there are not a few that love the church for what it is, for what it has done, and for what it is destined to accomplish in the centuries to come, the lamentable fact remains that there are some among us who are not of us; who are diligent in their efforts, in their words, and in their deeds to destroy the very institution they profess to love and revere. As there are Socialists and Anarchists in the body politic, who inveigh against law and order, and those chosen for enforcement of law; so, into our Methodism have crept those of like temperament, passions and darings. It is a lamentable fact that in our ministry, in our officerry, and in our laity, are those who neither believe our doctrines, or love our Discipline. There are those who dare to kindle strange fires upon our altars, who repudiate our form of government, and applaud others who rebel against it. When we review the achievements of the century just past, when we consider the legacy left us by the long line of our noble ancestors, and when we remember thier great love for the doctrine and discipline of this, our common heritage, the African Methodist Episcopal Church, we rise in our might and say, as says the state, socialism and anarchism MUST GO! In this conference, I am sorry to say, are men who blush to speak evil, not only of their brother ministers, but also of the Bishops of our church, and for no other cause than that ministers have failed to receive the appointment they desired; hence by their insininations and innuendos succeed in arraigning against the heads of the church and against the ministry not to their liking that class of our membership who are ever ready to meddle in the affairs of others; to fight the battles of others, or to carry the slime of others. Then, too, in some of the churches of this conference, we have officers who make no secret of their opposition to the powers that be; not only are they uncharitable, but unreasonable to the degree of untruthfulness in their remarks in private and in public in expressing that opposition. And stranger still is the fact that we have ministers who profess to be loyal African Methodist preachers who continue to nominate and place in office this class of men. I wanna you today that the church must rid itself of the disgruntled trouble-breeder, who delights to sow the seed of discord, whether he be in the pulpit or in the pews or they will clog the wheels of our Methodism on the Coast. Notwithstanding the malcontents and the ne'er-do-wells, the rank and file of the California ministry, the men who are bringing results; taking care of every interest of the church of Allen; are true to the core, and the reports they bring to you at this conference are but slight indications of the real hardships and sacrifices through which they have passed. The following is but a brief mention of each: REDLANDS—Rev. A. O. D. Steele Pastor Redlands has served as a drydock this year, in which Brother Steele has remained for repairs. It is well known to us all how broken in health he has been for the last three or four years; but by doing light church work, and getting out and roughing it, he JOHN D. BROWN This is a placeholder image. The actual content should be displayed here. NUMBER 30 is is fast returning to his former self, and feels able to assume heavier responsibilities. Redlands has a splendid citizenship. Some of the most thrifty, industrious, honest and loyal members of our communion reside here. But, unfortunately, their number is small, and there seems to be but little to attract and hold the newcomer. So, there is an appreciable increase in the population, no increase in the membership of the church. SAN BERNARDINO—Rev. J. C. Lockhart, Pastor The new church building which was in the way of construction when the conference met last, has been completed. The old church building remodeled and turned into a parsonage, the membership increased to 83, with a debt of $182945. tion when the conference met last, has been completed. The old church building remodeled and turned into a parsonage, the membership increased to $3, with a debt of $1879.45. Unfortunate for the reputation of the place, matters got beyond control in settling the claims for the new building. A loan of $3,000 was negotiated from a private individual; $1,500 of it was received and first mortgage given when the work was completed, and the other $1,500 needed, the lender had changed his mind, and refused to let them have it. Being now unable to secure the necessary amount elsewhere on second mortgage, the lumber man, to whom they owed $1,700, sued, got judgment, under which the property was advertised and sold. The lumber man being the highest and only bidder, the property was sold to him for $1,700, and he turned it back to the trustees for that amount plus the cost of court proceedings. The people have obot recoveredi rom the shock and humiliation of having their church sold, and are determined to meet their obligations. This property is well worth $5,000, with a debt of $1,879.45. Brother Lockhart has done a splendid work in this charge. POMONA—Rey. C. H. Harris Pastor Brother Harris is doing about all that could be expected in this appointment. There are but few of our people in this city, and, as usual, they are not all united upon any one thing. Yet, with the faithful few the year's work has been accomplished, and the standard of the charge upheld. DUARTE—Rev. H. Judkins, Pastor This is Brother Judkins' first year in the itinerant ministry, and a brilliant beginning it is. He found Duarte in an almost hopeless condition, the result of past experiences. The few members who claimed membership were discouraged and scattered. He has succeeded in gathering them together, inspiring new hope and greatly reviving the work. RIVERSIDE—Rev. J. H. C. Redd, Pastor The debt that threatened trouble at the beginning of the year P. BRY, REV. H. BLANTON PAKES, Presiding Bishop California Conference has been reduced, creditors reassured, so that in the future the management of affairs will be less difficult. Brother Redd has labored hard this year, meeting with much opposition from some of his officers and members as a result of misunderstanding on minor matters. But in spite of all, he has succeeded in keeping the banner aloft. WATTS—Rev. Geo. L. Trigg. Pastor Nothwithstanding the discouraging circumstances encountered on entering this field, Brother Trigg has done an excelsent year's work. Brother Brown, after his removal from this charge by your Reverence at the last sitting of our conference, returged to harass them for what he styled the balance of his last year's salary. Failing to meet a ready response, he caused suit to be brought for the collection of the same. This being but a mission, and having no funds with which to employ counsel to defend their interest in court, a new pastor and wife for them to support as best they could, I assumed the larger portion of the responsibility, retained council and met the case in court, which was tried, and decided in favor of the church. Overcoming the effects of this litigation and contention, the pastor and people have rounded out a very successful year. A new and more desirable location, on a popular thoroughfare is being secured, upon which the church building is to be moved. The population of this commonwealth is ever increasing, the people acquiring their own homes; so the future of this charge is hopeful. Long Beach is a watering place, where our citizenship is transient, and consequently a transient membership. We have 14 members here, with $163.41 in bank for the purchase of a church home. It would be wise to continue our efforts in this field. Rev. M. J. Johnson, who felt that his usefulness in this mission was culled, resigned in July, and since he was accomplishing no good, we accepted his resignation. Since then the work has been without a regular pastor. I would recommend that this work be attached to Watts, and designated Watts Curtent. LOS ANGELES—Second Church, Rev. E. R. Johnson, Pastor This has been a red letter year in the history of this appointment. For the first time in its existence he has met their current bills and made a payment of two hundred due on the next bid.
