In placing these men along with Lincoln, we take the stand that "civilization and education, both industrial and moral" are all at its best when associated with Christianity, and these gentlemen seem to have caught Lincoln.

Not since the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation has there came to the Colored race such a benefactor as the New Year's Day of 1915 brought. We may look back through time. We see John Brown, who contributed his ideas and made an effort to bring them to pass. Then, Chas.

From the beginning of Charity Balls down to the present time, they have been looked upon as distinctively social affairs, and in no other affair is the effort made to make it as grand, that is, from a standpoint of dress as in these affairs; and yet, several of our leading men appeared last Monday evening on the dance floor looking as if they had come directly from work. balmer sen quite and Alonza, Malone re- exes, Wednesday after- tay of several days.

William Lorimer at Institutional Church last Monday evening. The name of R. S. Abbott had been assigned "Afro-American press" on the program, but the editor of the Defender had not been informed. We cannot understand why a letter of notification had not been sent to the Defender office, as the editor would have been only too glad to attend, and was rather surprised at censures from friends for not being present. George Little called Champion Jack Johnson a "Big Black Burley Nigger" in Judge Goodnow's court on Wednesday, the Judge, "You appologize or pay a fine." "Little" said I will pay for the "coon." The judge told him to wait until the next morning and he got a hot one and the promise of a jail sentence if he was not good when he came into the courts of Illinois; "if you can do that in your home in Georgia you must remember that you cannot do it here; it is said. The Defender thinks a jail sentence for such trash as Little's heart would be the best example that could be meted out to such cusses of the two "pups" recently by our courts. If the charm of amalgamation has any sweetness, the respectable people of the two races fail to see it in the present era, nor will it be advisable in general for more than six generations to come. The marriages of rich Colored diplomats and athletes to white women only serves to demoralize a Negro family and the race suffers the humiliation. Such marriages also make the white race booked solid until then.

Curious Legal Complications Ended Over Gold Bonanza Nome. The steamer Mackinaw has sailed from Nome, Alaska, with the famous launch Eagle aboard. The Engle will be taken to Seattle and be in a glass case, where the public may gaze to its heart's content and Carlin E. W. Johnson may gloat over Josh R. McIntyre. The launch was the case of the long drawn out suit between Johnson and McIntyre for the possession of the famous Copper Gulch No. 8, which Johnson finally will court. Johnson and McIntyre engage in the lightering business at Nome in the days of the gold rush and shipped a launch from Tacoma to do the work. The business did not pay, and the launch was beached. After lying on the beach for a year Johnson took out the engines and placed them in two other boats. In the course of time he traded one of the boats for a supposedly worthless claim. This claim is now the Copper Gulch No. 8, which has already produced $1,500,000 and shows no signs of stopping. When the mine turned out to be a bonanza McIntyre sued for a half interest on the strength of his old interest in the launch sent from Tacoma. BREATHING CAVE IN ARIZONA Air Inhaled and Expelled by Crevice in Rock. "A curious freak of nature is the pride of a country neighborhood near Prescott, Ariz." remarked F. X. Dorgan of El Paso, Tex. "This is called a breathing cave. The cave is in the lava formation on a high tableland near Prescott. In a wall of this cave is a crevice which is probably three inches wide and several feet long. A visitor stands close to this crack. He feels a current of air rushing out of it. This is not so strange. But if he waits long enough he will notice that the direction of the current has changed and the air is being drawn into the crevice. "The people of the neighborhood have many theories to account for the change in the direction of the air current, but I do not believe that any of them would stand the test of a scientist's examination. "A subterranean stream is given as the probable cause. Just how the now of an underground river could cause the direction of the air current to be reversed I cannot see. However, the crevice is there and the phenomenon exists. I think that see o is the people in that neighborhood must a be superstitious on the out of the breathing cave."

SYLVESTER RUSSBLL PUCCINT'S VIEWS OF AMERICAN MUSIC. Says It Belongs to the Negro, But Savage in Sound. Dovak, the great European composer, who first firmly established the procedure of Negro folk-tone as the only genuine origin of the music he had extracted from the Savannah jubilee and the gynocapped two step of the guitar and harpine, so skillfully used early stages of buck dancing, was hardly down to posterity sacred to the name and gratitude of the Negro race in the annals of American musical history. And in London, England, when he said: "There is an argument willed of the past, the present argument willed of the past. What they have is Negro music, which is always the savagery of sound." When the "Girl from the Golden West," the American composer of the score, the first January the critics were delighted with musica as a whole intermingled with complaints that there was not enough Americana to make the score. The critics there as well made the same continent. But of Negro Puccin's expression, and rag-time songs introduced by the Williams & Walker and Oriental America companies, the probably needed its way back toward the rapturous scenes of the wild west deplied by Buffalo Bill and a well trained band of half breed Indians from the war cry he ceased and the native trinity that started Europe in a decade ultimately in a eighty-fourth cipher in dudelemmon. The only thing that can be said to be savage (cynical) classical development of Negro (Negro) music, which migrate from the treatment of jubilee back into raw dissipation theory of tone Puccin sees that he can be able to receive further instructions by building Marlon Cook, H. Lawcercer, Freeman, and J. Rosamond Johnson. A Country School Farce at the Pekin Carolina Four at the Monogram. Manager Klein was again on the job in the bill he had gotten together for the Davis band which includes Fred Davis, Clarence Chance, Phi.

The Griffin sisters made their quarterly re-appearance in the band's 1980s' "Their songs, aided by the exceptional ability of swatman, Dorsey and Reese, as an orchestra that is unexcelled on State street, were generously received. Their appearance was so beautiful, their songs were beautiful. Le Roy Bland a character specialty performer who was seen last season at his house was an acceptable feature on the bill. His work was not only that of a performer but also of a tuneful in the baritone and all of his accents were a decided improvement on past performances. Lewis and Lewis who opened the bill were to be a good team which stick the pop music to the fore and be accorded a hit in his song on false hair. Their singing as a whole was the best thing in their act. Murphy and Francis Hit of the Season at the Grand. The Grand Tacte never had a better history than one, presented this week. Murph and Francis Who've hold over from last week are presenting a new act which in point of merit would easily eclipse any similar act of the kind in town. One look at Murphy's pants, one look at hfs' feature and you are convinced that he is one of the most great men in the world. But, in the actors who ever appeared in vaudeville. One shiver from Murphy one comic step. In dancing and one comedy scene with his wife, Miss Francis and you are sure that he is very good, but when you hear him sing his own original songs you are sure that you are the one who has the best. Miss Francis who, the prettiest colored soubret in vaudeville, also a quick witted actress. The fine clothes she wears indicates intelligence and her jeweled throat necklace added to her brightness. Simms and Thompson have kept the ball of fun in the same way which kept the ball of fun a colling. Joe Simms is not only a clever comedian but his topical songs of the day have alded him in his vocation. Mr. Thompson was a sleek looking, straight man and his dialogue with his partner in cludings, and his song, which is with it, has a long-time song all gained favor. Monte Taber, a tenor and yoder formerly of Richards and Pringles Georgia, misstrelle made his first appearance at this house and won instant favor.

Gray who was stupidly suddenly sprang from his seat bound- ing through the door and across the stage to kick the Turkish wrestler. He was caught by Manager Motts just in time to be spared of a terrible bedding. Mr. Moore an old time minstrel and a good character actor who was urged by Paul La Mere of the Crown Garden, Indianapolis, Ind., was cancelled after he had done a speciality. Mr. Moore who had a contract claims that he was hired to appear in the White Rails cases of this kind that the White Rails fight legally. Mr. Moore is a member of the C. V. B. A. once of Charles D. Harrington, a white booking agent January 24th in London and Duke Brennan (white) manager of the Grand picture house and also of the new Grand (colored) theatre which is to open for five weeks, had made an effort to control the colour of the colored theatres of the Middle West, as in the Grand theatres, as against the little Monogram theatre on the next block, which is being a thriving business. After the meeting took place and the alliance was said to have been handled and Brennan disagreed and Duke Brennan drew from the firm, deceptively its possibility. The Grand is now booked by Mr. Harrington and the Monogram by Doyle. Prominent bookers have recently complained that white bookings of the "small time" are getting entirely too insane that an effort will be made to form an all colored booking alliance, data of which may be given out a little later on.

Notice to the Public. --- Their was a bill brought against the "Chicago City Railway Company and The American Car and Foundry Company" for damages of ten millions of ($10,000,000) dollars, to Dr. E. R. Robinson. The court below give defendants a judgment against Dr. E. R. Robinson. He appealed his case to the Circuit Court of Appeals. That ruled toowit: "Whereof, It is now here ordered and adjudged by this court that the judgment of the said Circuit Court in this cause be, and the same is hereby reversed with costs." "This says if we have not said all that is necessary, to hand you, issue the explanation papers; you do so, when it said, toowit: you therefore, are hereby commanded that such further proceedings he had in said cause as according to right and justice, and the laws of the United States ought to be had, the said writ of error notwithstanding. Witness the Honorable Malville W. Fuller, chief justice of the United States. This took place on the 2nd day of January, A. D., 1907." The plaintiff in error made this motion to file the mandate, toowit: "motion of plaintiff, for leave to file the mandate in case No. 27178, and that the costs with the costs taxed in this Court and that execution issue therefore." The Court bellow received the reversed mandate when it made this order toowit: "E. R. Robinson vs. Chicago City Railway Company, et al, 27178, on motion of plaintiff's Atty., leave is hereby given the plaintiff toowit the mandate from the United State Circuit Court of Appeals—reversing the judgment (which was against Robinson, and give it back to him the Court) entered here in on the 9th day of Feb. A. D., 1907, with costs, etc." This finish case No. 27178, and any one say that any one could move from the Courts order which was made in case No. 27178, on the 20th day of Feb. A. D., 1907, is a lie. Because the law says toowit: "Where (the Court) reverses the decree it does so at the appellee's costs, so—when (the Court bellow) receives the mandate, will have nothing to do but to tax those costs, and enter a decree therefore, and from such a decree there is no appeal." This is found in Walker on patents pages 498 and 499, par. 656. (3rd Ed.) The only thing in the way of this judgment, was and is that the clerks refuse to obey the Courts order which was made on th. 20 day of Feb. A. D., 1907, and that was to issue the execution papers. Judge Geo. A. Carpenter has allowed Dr. E. R. Robinson's motion to be filed, that ask that the clerks show cause why they does not issue the execution papers. And if any, one say different, is a lie and main to conspire to injury Dr. E. R. Robinson, by public statement and they will be called to Court to answer for such. This is by the patentee himself. DR. E. R. ROBINSON, 2944 State Street. BAPTIST FOREIGN WORK. How It Has Proposed In Africa and the West. Jice. The growth of religious work in foreign fields as conducted by the colored Baptists of the United States is something wonderful when we consider the educational advantages they have had on the sublet of worldwide missions. Fourteen years ago they had one missionary station and one missionary, with fewer than 200 members. Now they have over 100 missionaries, American and native, with valuable school and church property in West, South and British Central Africa, in the West Indies and in South America amounting to E. Murff in faroff South Africa telling of his desire to come home for the benefit of his health. He also needs financial aid. Secretary Jordan has sent out urgent appeals to all the colored Baptist churches asking contributions for the relief of Rev. Mr. Murff and the other missionaries on Sunday, Jan. 29. Dr. Morris, president of the National Baptist convention, has also written an urgent letter that the appeal of Secretary Jordan be heeded by the entire denomination throughout the country. Comer on Relation Between the Races. In his recent message to the state statute Governor Braxton B. Comf Alabamn has the following to concerning Afro-Americans: "Between the Negro and the whites there have been less friction, fewer murders, fewer assaults, fewer lynchings, than ever before, and the Negro has made advancement. This is due to two causes—prohibition and temperance laws and to the advance in the price of cotton. There is no question but that liquor is bad for the Indian and for the Negro, and I myself believe that there is no exception—that it is bad for all." GLASSIFIED COLUMN. FURNISHED ROOMS. For Rent.

Lands Show Confidence In General Property. *Traffic Managers' Meeting Takes Action Indicating Optimism* Approximately $1,250,000 is to be expended during the present year by the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific Railroad Systems in advertising their Facilities and the Industrial Development of the west. This program indicating the confidence in prosperity of the county on the part of the Harriman management was determined upon at a meeting during the day of some fifty of the passenger officials of the Harriman system. Following closely on the heels of the announcement by President R. S. Lovett that the system is prepared to spend $75,000,000 in double tracking, its lines through to the Pacific const, the decision to increase the advertising appropriation of that year by approximately $300,000 is regarded as one of the most remarkable indications of industrial optimism that the year has brought forth in advertising the possibilities of the west, the roads are carrying out the policy of the late E. H. Harriman, the $1,250,000 will be devoted as between the Union Pacific Southern Pacific Systems, the latter getting three-fifths, and the former two-fifth of the amount. A large share of it will be devoted to newspaper advertising, and the most of it will be spent in the United States, and we sincerely hope that Hon. R. Lovett, the president will not overlook the Chicago Defender, the paper which is read by the money market as well as the common people. But a considerable sum will be spent in showing the people of other countries the advantages of living in the west. New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company and the Boston and Maine, have placed an order for 63,400 tons of rails, about one-half of this order went to the Pennsylvania Steel Company. In our next issue, Mr. Winston will write a brief sketch about the Mormons and Gentiles. There is a certain cheap train porter on the Rock Island inguaging a hollow. He should go to the packing house and buy a pair of gaul and he would not have to have a female to represent him. I will keep his name to myself and watch his performance. With respect to the report from Chiefriceau B. F. Yoakum, chairman of the a readjustment ready for announcement at San Francisco, the company involving retirement of the first has two predecessors. The facts may be set forth: something more than six months ago such a plan in tentative form was formulated and submitted to the board. The company and other of its large interests, after due consideration it was decided that the money market and conditions generally not have brought out the point that the company time, accordingly. It has been noted that abacusness there is nothing to indicate that it is not important. But on the conclusion for believing that it continues forward again when contended, it is regarded far more contended that in relation to retiring the preferred stocks of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company, thereby leaving only the common stock outstanding, the other stock outstanding, the portion of some of the smaller companies now grouped with the Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad Company and the Evansville and Terre Haute Houses, instead of nothing has been done on the plan since last summer apparently the controlling interest, does not contemplate bringing it out in the immediate future.

Medicine so strong that a dose must be limited to seven drops had been prescribed for the man with unstendy hands. His family also had shaky hands, and as there was no medicine dropper in the house it looked as if somebody would have to make a midnight trip to the drug store. But a visiting relative that they had put up for the night suggested an alternative. "Take that half of that raw eggshell—raw, mind you; cooked eggshell is too brittle and crumbles too easily—that I saw lying on a saucer in the cupboard, drill a hole in it the size of a pin head and let the medicine trickle through that.

When a car is full it is full, and there is no way to get into it except by being rude to those occupying it. Now, if the conductor is honestly convinced that there is room for an extra passenger in the crowded car he ought himself to be compelled to find the space for you before ordering you to enter. But this does not bother him in the least. He simply tells you that you must go in and compels you to make room for yourself."

It will be of fourteen stories and attain a height of fifty meters, or over 158 feet. It will be raised in the Place du Dome, on the site of the Cadican, the famous residence of the more famous Glangalenzo Viscato, duke of Milan, noted for his conquests and his patronage of art. There will be seven elevators, so that the highest story can be reached with ease.
