The Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D.D. D., and the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann ARE ENDEAVORING TO GRAB $150,000 FROM BOTH BRANCHES OF CONGRESS, WASHINGTON, D. C., IN ORDER TO INCREASE THEIR PERSONAL REVENUE OR INCOME AT THE EXPENSE OF ALL THE TAX PAYERS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. THEY CLAIM THAT THEY WANT THE MONEY TO ASSIST TO CELEBRATE THE FIFTY YEARS OF FREEDOM IN 1915. THEY SUCCEEDED IN MILKING THE LEGHSLATURE OF ILLINOIS OUT OF $25,000 AND NOW THEY ARE MAKING AN EFFORT IN A BOLD AND BRAZEN FACED MANNER TO MILK THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OUT OF $150,000. SO THAT THEY WILL BE ENABLED TO FILE UP ALL THE MONEY THAT THEY WILL NEED AS LONG AS THEY LIVE ON THIS EARTH. LATELY THE UNSAVOEY POLITICAL PASTOR OF THE INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH JOURNEYED TO WASHINGTON PRESUMEDLY AT THE EXPENSE OF THE TAX-PAYERS OF THIS STATE WHERE HE MADE A SPEECH BEFORE THE COMMITTEE ON INDUSTRIAL ARTS, ETC., OF THE LOWER HOUSE OF CONGRESS.

BY A LOT OF DISHONEST COLD BIT THE BEST INTEREST OF THE OCCUPY ARE SIMPLY IN THE GAME IN AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. As further evidence that the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph., D.D. D., labors under the impression that he and his handmaid or chambermaid the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann, who are both heavy loadstones around the necks of the better class of Afro-Americans, entertain the idea that they are the only real pebbles on the beach or grains of sand upon the seashore or the only true leaders of the Colored race, are right at this time endeavoring to grab or rake in one hundred and fifty thousand dollars from both branches of congress at Washington, D.C. under the pretext that the money will be used to expand the scope of their Colored celebration of freedom which they claim that they will hold somewhere in this city or state in 1915, but in reality they want that vast sum of money for the sole purpose of increasing their own personal revenue or income at the expense of all the tax payers throughout the United States. For we all are perfectly aware of the fact that the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D. is the greatest single handed all hog grabbber in the wide world. It is too true that with the assistance of several honest men who thought for a short time only that Messrs. Carey and Swann were square and on the dead level, that they did succeed in milking the legislature of Illinois out of $25,000, which caused them to act like unto crazy or drunken men and they both imagine that they are tooting the whole world around in their hip pocket and that it and everything in it and that all the people swarming over the face of the earth were simply created for their sole benefit and to enable them to feather their own nests. Becoming very desperate for more money in a bold and brazen faced manner they have started in to milk or work the federal government out of $150,000 and if they are successful in grabbing it off they will be in a splendid position to pile up all the money that they will need as long as they live on this old earth. Only a few weeks ago the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D., the unsavory political pastor of the Institutional church, journeyed to Washington, D. C. presumedly at the expense of the taxpayers of this state, for the special purpose of delivering a rip-roaring spread eagle speech before the committee on Industrial acts, etc., of the lower house of Congress, asking HEW TO THE LINE; LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY or commanding it to turn over or blindly appropriate the above mentioned sum of money and ask no questions as to how it is to be blown in for his one state celebration in 1915, which can never become national in any sense of the word. It seems that the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D., is more than firmly convinced that he, himself the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann and the Hon. James Hale Porter, his two maid servants or lackies are the sole head and front of the Colored race in America and that all the Colored people in this country—that is if they desire to continue to want to reside in it must fall down and worship at their unwashed feet. It is entirely too late to attempt to get up a Colored National Exposition, and confine it to the State of Illinois. For these at the head of the commission, of this state, claim; that they will hold their show in Chicago during the month of August 1915, in the Eighth Regiment Armory, which so far, is not under construction in the eighth degree. In 1920 would be a much better time, for the better class of Afro-Americans, throughout the country to attempt to get up a National Exposition; for possibly by that time, Mayor Carter H. Harrison and Governor Edward F. Dunne, may be routed out of office, and Messrs. Carey, Swann and Porter, may be called on to transform themselves into bright shining angels and that they will be willing to wing their way on to heaven. Therefore, no committee in either branch of Congress, should divert or appropriate 4159,000 of the peoples money, for such a doubtful enterprise, for it would be recklessly squandered or expended; by a lot of dishonest, cold blooded schemers, who have not the best interest of the Colored race at heart, and who are simply in the game in order to rake in thousands and thousands of dollars, of real easy money.

Young Colored Girl Graduates from High School at Sixteen. Wins a Scholarship at Seventeen. Two Prizes at Eighteen. Orange, N. J.—Miss Isabel Vandervall, a former member of the class of 1910, of the East Orange High School was awarded this year both prizes open to members of the Junior Class of the New York Medical College and Hospital for Women, 1-719 West 101st street and Central Park West, New York City. Exercises of the college were held in the Astor Gallery of the Waldorf Astoria, Fifth avenue and 34th street, New York, at which time various prizes offered to students were distributed. The first prize which Miss Vandervall won, consisting of $25 in gold, was awarded her for attaining the highest average in her class for the year. The other, a handsome watch, was given by Judge Alfred Ommen, of the Appellate Division, professor of Medical Jurisprudence, for having made the highest mark in the medical jurisprudence examination. Miss Vandervall's mark was 98 per cent. Miss Vandervall is just 20 years old. She received her diploma from the East Orange High School in June, 1910, when 16 years old. The following year she took a post graduate course at the same high school, entering the New York Medical College in the fall of 1911. There she immediately began making a record for herself, by winning the scholarship of $50, which the college yearly offers to the freshman student making the highest average in the class. In her sophomore year she received honorable mention for excellency in scholarship. This year, her junior year, she carried off both the prizes open to members of her class. Miss Vandervall is the only Colored student in the New York Medical College.—East Orange News. STAG AT THE APFOMATTOX CLUB This evening, J.

Wednesday evening at 5 o'clock, Mrs. Agnes Crane, was united in marriage to Mr. Michael G. Walsh, one of the efficient, most faithful and popular Deputy Coroners of Cook county, also a leading Republican politician of the Town of Lake. The wedding ceremony was held at St. Gabriel's Roman Catholic church, 45th and Wallace streets. Miss Celia Kelly, of Chesterton, Ind., was the bridesmaid; Mr. Thomas McInerney was best man. A reception was held later on in the evening at the old home of the groom, 4738 Union avenue, after which the newly married couple started on their bridal tour through the east. They will be at home at the above number shortly after July 1. They received many useful and beautiful presents from their multitude of friends. ATTORNEY EDWARD L ALEXAN- DER AND MRS. ALEXANDER HAVE SEPARATED FOR GOOD. The latter part of 1912 or the first prt of 1913, Attorney Edward I. Alexander who came to this city from Jacksonville, Fla., in 1908, who was so light that he could almost pass for white, was united in marriage to Miss McKinzie, who resided with her mother out on Sheridan Road, a White lady who was supposed to be quite wealthy. Shortly after the wedding, they went to Mexico to reside; from there they headed for New York City, from which place they beat it back to Jacksonville, Fla., the old-home of Mr. Alexander, and it is reported that neither the White nor the Colored ladies would associate with Mrs. Alexander, and as she did not like that section of the country and its people, it is claimed that she has left her handsome Colored husband for good and that she is now again residing with her mother on Sheridan Road. JONES AND CODOZOE WILL CONSTRUCT AND CONDUCT A NEW ELITE IN THE THIBTY-POURTH BLOCK ON STATE STREET.

SENATOR LORIMER IS ONE OF THE DIRECTORS OF INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH AND HE ALWAYS USED HIS INFLUENCE TO FORCE ITS PASTOR TO THE FRONT AND TO ADVANCE HIS INTEREST ALONG POLITICAL LINES. SO THEY TOOTED EACH OTHERS HORNS AT ALL TIMES WHICH EVENTUALLY WOUND UP BY CATCHING MANY SHORT SIGHTED SENTIMENTAL COLORED PEOPLE IN HIS BANK TRAP. The dear ladies throughout the state of Illinois rubbed it all over that class of politicians who looked upon them with scorn and contempt when ever they as much as intimated that they should have the right to cast their ballots at all elections and fully enjoy all the rights of suffrage like unto the men; it was that class of selfish narrow minded politicians who have always had a desire not only to use the influence of the ladies, but the influence of any one else who could assist them whenever they have or are seeking favors at the hands of the voters, who bitterly fought them in that resuscit to the bitter end. tour through the southern part of this state and each and every day he will hold heart to heart talks with the voters residing in the cities, towns and counties to be visited by him.

The echoes of the Lorimer-Munday To say the least that same class of politicians were greatly astonished when they learned on reading the newspapers last Sunday morning that the four republican members of the supreme court, Justices Frank K. Dunn, James H. Cartwright, Orrin N. Carter and Alonzo K. Vickers, voted in favor of permitting the ladies to continue to vote the men up or down and strange to say the three Democratic members of the court, Justices George A. Cooke, Charles C. Craig and William M. Farmer recorded their votes against the ladies on that proposition nevertheless they will be an important factor at the coming fall election and no doubt they will assist to unhorse some of the tricky politicians who worked to deprive them of their ballots. Mayor Carter H. Harrison received a body blow or a black eye at the hands of that high tribunal for it was decided by the court that he had no legal right to separate the four or five members of the board of education from their positions and Messrs. Henry W. Huttman, Charles O. Sethueh, John C. Harding and James B. Dibelka, scored a very strong point against "the man of destiny." The first of the week the Hon. Roger C.

The echoes of the Lorimer-Munday bank failure reveals the fact that many Afro-Americans lost all of their savings in the La Salle street Trust and Savings Bank. Bishop H. B. Parks was caught in the wreckage with his eyes wide open; presiding elder the Rev. W. D. Cook who was saving every dollar of his money that he possibly could so as to be able to buy a fine home over east shed many large tears when he learned that it was actually lost in the bank failure. It seems that the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D. D. was largely responsible for many of his brethren being duped and coldly separated from their hard earned cash in that direction. Senator Lorimer, like Bishop Samuel Fallows, is one of the directors of the Institutional church and at all times he used his influence as United States senator, as a successful banker and as a high grade man of affairs, to force the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D. to the front and to advance his interest along political lines both Democratic and Republican so that he would be able to lord it over the honest and respectable Colored men who were justly entitled to share some of the honors and easy money which he always grabbed off for him (Continued on Page 2).

As stated before they tooted each others horns long and loud at all times and the tooting finally wound up by catching many short sighted sentimental Colored people, including lawyers, doctors and preachers who greatly delighted to hang around in the shadow of the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph. D. D. D. in his bank trap. OVER 44,000,000 RED CROSS SEALS SOLD IN 1913. Sale Shows Big Increase-New York State Leads With 10,000,000. More than 44,000,000 Red Cross Christmas Seals were sold last December, according to a report issued today by The National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, and the American Red Cross. In this way $440,000 is netted for antituberculosis work in various parts of the United States. The sale in 1913 is a gain of 4,000,000 seals over 1912, or 10 per cent. It is hoped that this year the 50,000,000 mark will be reached. The seal design for 1914 has been selected and orders for the printing of 100,000,000 seals have been placed. Plans for the organization of a larger sale this year than ever before have been perfected. New York State lead the country last year with a sale of over 10,500,000 seals or one for each man, woman and child in the state. Of this number, more than 6,825,000 were sold outside of New York City by the State Charities Aid Association. Pennsylvania's sale was second largest, aggregating 3,125,000 seals. Ohio came next with a sale of 2,800,000, Wisconsin fourth with 2,700,000, and Illinois, fifth with 2,500,000. Hawaii sold the most seals per capita, the total sale being somewhat over two for each inhabitant. Rhode Island came second with a scale of two per person. Beginning with a scale of 18,500,000 in 1908, in six seasons the revenue which these little holiday seals have brought to the anti-tuberculosis campaign has more than tripped, an aggregate for the period of over $1,800,000 or 180,000,000 seals. MME. CLARA JACKSON-HUTCHI SON SCORES. The Recital by the Madame at Quinn Chapel on Tuesday night was from an artist's viewpoint a success. Each number on the program as rendered gave evidence of the ability of the artist and the result of excellent training, and earnest study. The audience was a very appreciative one greeting each artist with a reception, and receiving each number with worthy applause. Madame Estella Bonds-Major opened the program with a very appropriate number by Kolling, which she played with much sentiment. Then Mme. Hutchison made her debut, stunningly gowned as she was, she made a beautiful picture, and when the last note of her first number "Life's Maytime" had died away, the edifice literally recked with the deafening applause and the Mme. had done herself proud by capturing her audience, but she fairly excelled in her operatic number "I am Titanis," proving herself a singer of quality with a sweet voice. The dramatic selections by Mr. S. S. Bruce were well rendered showing the gentleman to be a master of the art. Mr. Houston is an accomplished violinist, his "Fantasia de concert" from Faust merited rounds of applause. Mr. Hutchison sang in good voice "On away, awake beloved," from Hiwathea by S. Coleridge Taylor. These artists should be encouraged for in them we have representative talent to the musical world. ```markdown ``` HYDE PARK NEWS By L. W. Washington. Read this Column.

Hallinan Before the League. Mr. Charles T. Hallinan, chairman of the press bureau of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who attended the annual meeting held in Baltimore last month, will make report to the Negro Fellowship League, 3005 State street, Sunday June 21st, of the work that was done, at this annual meeting. You are cordially invited to be present. Meeting begins at 4 o'clock sharp. Come early and bring a friend, as this organization is the only one in the country which is doing anything in a national way to aid the Negro in the solution of his problem. The Peerless Orchestra has been asked to furnish the music for the occasion. Ida B. Wells Barnett, Pres.

Thomas Wallace Swann, Secretary of the Illinois State Commission, WasForced to Pay Back to F. L. Osborne THE $400, WHICH HE HAD FLIMPLAMMED HIM OUT OF UNDER THE PRETENSE THAT HE WOULD COMMAND GOVERNOR EDWARD P. DUNNE TO APPOINT HIM ONE OF THE MEMBERS OF THE STATE BOARD OF BARBER SHOP EXAMINERS. MAJOR GEORGE W. FORD, BISHOP SAMUEL FALLOWS AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE STATE COMMISSION WERE ALSO MADE PARTIES TO THE SUIT WHICH HAD BEEN INSTITUTED BY MR. OSBORNE TO RECOVER HIS MONEY. ON RECOVERING IT HE DISMISSED THE COURT PROCEEDINGS IN SANGAMON COUNTY AGAINST THE WHOLE SHOOTING MATCH. ON ONE OCCASION AND BEFORE HE COULD PROCEED ANY FURTHER WITH THE EATING AND PEASTING HE HAD TO BUSH ABOUND AND HUNT UP $50.00 TO PAY THE HALL RENT AND FOR THE FINE GRUB. THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER COLORED MEN IN SPRINGFIELD, WHO MAY ALSO ENTER SUIT AGAINST MR. SWANN AND THE STATE COMMISSIONS TO RECOVER SOME OF THE MONEY WHICH HE SHOOK OUT OF THEIR POCKETS FROM TIME TO TIME. Not long after Mr. Osborne had started his suit to recover his money, it is claimed that state senator W. Duff Pierce, who is also one of the state commissioners rushed into Governor Dunne's office red and white in the face with rage! that he really did unbosom himself of some cuss words, that he excitedly exclaimed that he would not have one damn thing more to do with the commission nor with the celebration in 1915, unless F. L. Osborne dismissed his suit against the commissioners, that it was a rank outrage to think that a first-class White gentleman like he, was sued along with some dishonest, tricky Colored men who did not own one decent suit of clothes, it is claimed that even Governor Dunne came mighty near falling from grace and that he almost felt like uttering a few cuss words himself, in order to clear up the more than unpleasant situation which he and the state commissioners had been placed WEST SIDE NOTES St. Stephen's members and friends are doing splendid work in trying to raise the $1,000.00 for the Rally to be held in July. The dinner given by Mrs. Thornton at 314 N. Leayitt St., was a great success as we all had plenty of everything. The choir under the direction of Professor Turner is doing splendid work. Mr. Charles De Prad departed from this life Wednesday, June 17, leaving a very young wife, who has many friends to mourn the loss of her husband. in by his most distinguished friend the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann. It required sometime to pass before it dawned on the cunning mind of the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann that there was only one way to make Mr. Osborne back up and close his mouth and that was to come across with his four hundred dollars which he did and after recovering his money and the court cost, Mr. Osborne dismissed his court proceedings against Col. Swann and the state commissioners, and Osborne must be given the credit for knowing just how to get ahead of filmfammers and dead beats to perfection. On one occasion it is said that Col. Swann wanted to prove to his pal Governor Dunne, that he had money to burn that he was the wealthiest gentleman of Color in this state and in order to make good in that respect he decided to give a grand banquet at Masonic hall in Springfield, the affair was to be pulled off in honor of the state commission and other prominent White and Colored citizens, both ladies and gentlemen but it is claimed that just as his guests and the state commissioners were on the eve of entering the doors leading into it that the doors were slammed in faces and then locked tight and that those who had been invited to the eating or feasting were forced to stand around in the street in front of the hall and wait until the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann could rush around town and hunt up fifty dollars to pay the hall rent and for the fine grub and wine. The following are said to be among the many other Colored men residing in Springfield whom the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann, in the most brazen faced manner relieved them of their money in order to impress Governor Dunne with the fact that he was a little dishonest rich Colored man. Major George W. Ford, $150 who was selected as one of the state commissioners by Governor Swann, J. M. Mosley, $150, one crazy man $90, and it is estimated that at the present time that he still owes the Colored citizens of Springfield and throughout the State of Illinois more than one thousand dollars aside from turning over the four hundred dollars to F. L. Osborne, whom he had endeavored to skin alive to a dead stand still. Notwithstanding the above facts Governor Edward F. Dunne, is so dull minded that he labors under the halucination that his warm chum, the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann is the highest embodiment of all that is good, true, beautiful and ennobling in the Afro-American race. It seems that the present chief executive of Illinois is not unlike the great majority of short highsided narrow contracted White men who always greatly delight to elevate their Colored waiters, butlers, bootblacks or coachmen, the vicious and the most ignorant Negro over and above the intelligent, the honest, the manly, the property holding, the tax paying and the straight forward Colored man.

Owens in his race for re-nomination and re-election to his present position. GRACE RESCUE MISSION. Rev. L. D. Burbridge, Evangelist, preached at Grace Rescue Mission, 4543 Dearborn street, Sunday June 14, at 3 P. M. Rev. Burbridge took for his Text, Matt. 16:19, "I will give unto hee keys of the kingdom of heaven." He brought out the fact that man's heart is the kingdom, and the gospels are the keys which unlocks the door of the heart. He said Christ never gave Peter the keys of death and hell, so the binding and loosing on earth and in heaven shows God sanctions the Apostles' doctrines binding and loosing under the apostles were more than it is under our Christian power. Peter bound Simon, Paul bound Jannes and Jambus. It was the remission and retention of sin by the apostles as Christ gave them that Paul says I have delivered such a one to Satan. Power given and when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said, "receive ye the Holy Spirit, whosoever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them, and whosoever sins ye retain thy are retained. Rev. J. H. Jackson, Minister. Rev. L. D. Burbridge, Evangelist. "C." ELLIJAH H. JOHNSON'S NEW HALL WILL BE MODERN IN EVERY RESPECT. IT WILL BE COMPLETED BY SEPTEMBER 1ST. Elijah H.

WILL EMULATE TUSKEGEE School to Be Founded With Fund Left by Baltimore Woman, but More Money Is Needed—Future President a Clergyman and Educator of Much Note In His Adopted Land. That matters of great importance in the educational advance of the republic of Liberla are in contemplation is indicated by the visit to this country of Dr. John H. Reed, principal of the projected Caroline Donovan Normal and Industrial institute, which will be located in Great Bassa county, Liberla. The school has been made possible through the turning over to Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Liberian consul to this country, of $65,000 of the accrued income left by the late Miss Caroline BW DR. JOHN HAMILTON REED. Donovan of Baltimore to the American Colonization society. It will be modeled along the lines of Tuskegee institute. Dr. John Hamilton Reed is a native of the United States of America and received his full collegiate course at New Orleans university, New Orleans, being graduated*from that institution June 2. 1891. Soon after graduation, he went to Texas, where he taught for awhile in the normal and industrial institution under the supervision of the department of education of the state located at Prairie View. Tex. He was also for a number of years professor of mathematics at Wiley university, Marshall. Tex. He was for a number of years connected with the Texas annual conference, being honored as secretary of the conference for nearly ten years. Leaving this conference, he was transferred to the Little Rock conference of the Methodist Episcopal church where the city of Little Rock felt his leadership in the pastorate of Wesley chapel, the leading church in that conference, for four years. Here, under his leadership, a $30,000 brick church was built. It stands today as the best monument of his efforts in the ministry. In 1905 he was appointed by the board of foreign missions of the Methodist Episcopal church to the foreign field, Africa, and with his wife, Mrs. Marguerite Louise Reed, and two children, Walter and Florence, began a career of great influence in connection with the work of the College of West Africa at Monrovia, Liberia. In 1908 Dr. Reed was commissioned by the state department of the United States of America as vice consul general to Liberia and holds that commission still as a bonded officer, under bond sureties in the city of Baltimore. In the month of February, 1914, he was duly appointed and commissioned by his excellency, Daniel E. Howard, president of the Republic of Liberia, as principal of the Caroline Donovan Normal and Industrial institute, which was established by an act of the national legislature under the trust fund known as the Donovan fund. The site for the establishment of the educational plant has been duly selected in the county of Grand Bassa, republic of Liberia, upon a tract of land comprising 5,000 acres of land in one of the most productive and beautiful sections in the interior of the republic. Dr. Reed, as principal of the institute, has been duly commissioned and empowered by the executive government of the Liberian republic to visit the United States for the purpose of interesting other organized financial agencies in this great educational movement. His further mission is to procure all the necessary materials and equipment for the immediate establishment of the institute under the provisions of the act of incorporation through the Donovan fund made available for this purpose. The president of the board of trustees, with the executive committee, gave the principal full power of attorney in the administration of this fund during his trip to America, to confer with the depositories of the fund and carry into effect everything necessary for the permanent founding of this important institute in Liberia.

Neither suffragist nor anti-suffragist adopts the shrinking, thornless violet as an emblem. A man may be as old as he feels, but a woman is generally older than she thinks she looks. If you are not getting better yourself it is hard for you to believe that the world is getting better. Still, an illiterate man never has his love letters read in open court in a breach of promise suit. He said her hair was dyed, and when she indignantly exclaimed "Tis false!" he said he presumed so. Lightning never strikes twice in the same place because the place isn't there after the first visit. A victory for Sir Thomas Lipton would at least be preferable to losing the cup to a rank outsider. All troubles come to him who waits. Hunting them may be good exercise, but displays poor judgment. Life for most of us is made up of little things, so don't despise the opportunities for small enjoyments. Monte Carlo made a profit of over $4,000,000 last year, notwithstanding the men with sure systems to beat it. Some French scientist has figured it out that in 2,000,000 years the earth will be frozen by the cooling of the sun. A good example of wasted energy is a book agent trying to sell an encyclopedia to one of those fellows who know it all. As we exclude sunshine and fresh air from our homes, so do we make business for the doctor and the undertaker. The plea of "somnambulistic insanity" made by a Chicago defendant in a murder case must be a double barred defense. On the London and Northwestern railway 17,000 signals are lighted every night. Canadian Northern has 8,694 miles under operation in Canada. The completed mileage has cost, for construction and equipment, $303,319,222. There is now a through train service from Buenos Aires to Asunción, Paraguay, the run requiring about fifty hours, but there is only one train a week. SIRES AND SONS. Daniel Coffee of Cleveland fought in the Mexican war of 1846-8. He is eighty-six. Philadelphia has three living veterans of the former Mexican war. J. B. Wilson, ninety; I. Williams, eighty-eight, and G. Manypenny, ninety. J. C. Chatterji, one of India's most distinguished scientists, will shortly visit Japan to carry out research work in the interests of Shintoism and Buddhism. Myron T. Herrick, United States ambassador to France, has been given a gold medal by the French Natural History association for "international service in the protection of wild life." Sir Charles Wyndham, the veteran actor-manager, who is seventy-seven, is still hale and hearty, and has no intention of retiring yet. He is now preparing to bring out a new play. Before going on the stage he served as an army surgeon. Captain Hugh Rodman, U. S. N., who will have charge of all the details of putting shipping through the Panama canal, graduated from Annapolis in 1880, and with the exception of six years has been at sea ever since. He has been around the world five times and has commanded ships in nearly every big port. Forest Notes. Results from western white pine plantations three seasons or more old show an average of 97 per cent success. On average white pine soil planting can be conducted for from $5 to $6 per acre. Western yellow pine cones to the amount of 6,377 bushels, obtained on the Blitter Root national forest, Montana, yielded 9,482 pounds of seed. The average cost of the extracted seed was 41 cents per pound. Forest botanists recognize only one cypress in the United States. Its range extends from Delaware southward around the coast into Texas and up the Mississippi valley to Illinois and Indiana. It is one of the few cone bearing trees which drop their leaves in winter. The heart wood of cypress is noted for its decay resistant properties. Aviation Notes. Provided its builder accepts certain conditions, the British war office will put any aeroplane through the military acceptance test. One of the French manufacturers has produced a hydroaeroplane so powerful that it is in reality little less than a flying tugboat. The English aviator Gustave Hamel made a record recently by looping the loop successively twenty-one times at Bournemouth at a height of 2,300 feet. When the latest Zeppelin airship cruised over Berlin it made hardly any noise. In the past the airships of this type have been conspicuous for the disturbance they created. Mean Man.

Meeting of National Religious Body Will Be Largely Attended. Nashville, Tenn.-At a special meeting of the Sunday school congress official board and the National Baptist Publishing board recently held it was decided that the Nashville delegation to the ninth annual meeting of the Sunday school congress to be held in Beaumont, Tex., would leave Nashville on Monday night, June 8, or early Tuesday morning, June 9. It was decided to go by way of the New Orleans gateway. The secretary of the Sunday school congress stated that an effort would be made to have a special train this year as heretofore and that in view of the fact that selections of delegations were coming in so fast the prospects were that a special train would be necessary. He also stated that he did not know how many of the northern and eastern delegates would come through Nashville, but that he had received several letters from points north and east asking if it were possible to go by way of Nashville. He has replied to each, saying that this information would have to be given to them by the various railroad representatives. The committee of arrangements for the entertainment of the visitors are the members of the executive committee, which is composed of Drs. Gibson, Bendy and Williamson and Professor J. P. Eugene. The chairmen of the various committees are: Arrangements, Dr. M. E. Robinson; reception, Dr. C. H. McDade; entertainment, Dr. M. Hurd; decoration, Dr. W. H. Holland; music, Professor L. L. Prater and Joseph D. Turner; turns, J. R. Jacobs; assignment, Professor Thomas T. Pollard and J. P. Eugene; solicitation, John H. Rhone. With these active workers already in line the work of the congress is in safe hands. WELL MANAGED SCHOOL Progress of the Utica Institute Under Professor W. H. Holtzclaw. Utica, Miss.-The Utica institute, located four miles south of here, is recognized as one of the leading institutions in the south for the education and advancement of Afro-American boys and girls. Under the wise management of the president, Professor William H. Holtzclaw, the school is meeting the needs of its large student body in a most satisfactory way. Seeing the great need of industrial education in the south, Mr. Holtzclaw struggled strenuously under difficulties to plant a school to give the young people, especially of Mississippi, a chance to acquire such an education as would fit them for making their way through life. During its eleven years of existence the school has done a wonderful and commendable work. Graduates of the school since its establishment are filling nearly every position in the walk of life with honor to themselves and credit to their alma mater. The enrollment this year was over 500, coming from Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Cuba and Mississippi. The high class work done by the institution places it in the front rank. Perhaps nowhere in this country can be found an institution that is more alive to the needs and best interests of its students. The character of its work was clearly shown in the fact that at the state fair held in Jackson, Miss., in October, 1913, the school won first prizes for nearly every department exhibit, notwithstanding every school in the state was represented, and the Utica Normal and Industrial institute was the younger of them all. The faculty of the school consists of thirty-two well trained young men and women, some of whom are graduates of some of the leading institutions of learning in this country. Professor Holtzclaw was born of humble parentage on a farm in Randolph county, Ala. Starting with such education as was offered him in his home county he made his way to Tuskegee institute, where he worked during the day and went to school at night for four years, when he graduated from that institution with honors. The school held its commencement exercises recently. Ten young people received diplomas and certificates. This is the largest number of graduates ever sent out from the school at one time.
