New York Legislature Appropriates $25,000 For Emancipation Celebration. New York.—Governor William Sulzer has signed the Carswell bill appropriating $25,000 for an exhibition and celebration commemorating the fifteenth anniversary of the emancipation proclamation. The bill was drawn by Summer H. Lark, editor of the Brooklyn Eye, and presented by Senator Carswell of Kings county, who granted every opportunity to Mr. Lark and his associates to get the measure through before the adjournment of the legislature. Governor Sulzer showed his interest in the matter in an unusually friendly manner by issuing an emergency order so that the matter might receive consideration in ample time for legislative action. The full text of the bill as passed and signed by the governor is as follows: An act to provide for an exhibition and celebration in New York city to commemorate the fifteenth anniversary of the emancipation proclamation, creating a commission to take the same and making an appropriation therein to the people of the state of New York, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows: Section I.

The principal aim of the Negro Society For Historical Research is to instruct the race and inspire love and veneration for its men and women who have achieved distinction by their efforts. The society was organized April 18, 1911. in Yonkers, New York, where it maintains headquarters at Sunny Slope cottage. John Edward Bruce, the well known newspaper correspondent, is president of the society. The library contains a collection of over 300 books of rare value. Phillis Wheatley's poems, published in London in 1773; Frederick Douglass' autobiography, published in 1845; Blyden's "Liberia's Offering." W. C. Nell's "Colored Patriots of the American Revolution." "William Wells Brown's "Clotel." "Narrative of a Fugitive Slave" and Paul Dunbar's poems are among the many books of great value. Annual Meeting of Medical Association. The annual meeting of the National Medical association will be held in Nashville, Tenn., in August. The organization is increasing in membership very rapidly, due at the present time largely to the host of young men graduates from the various medical schools throughout the country. The committee in charge of arrangements for entertaining the delegates and visitors is hard at work, and the indications are that the attendance at the coming session will be quite large. Dr. C. V. Roman, editor of the National Medical Journal, is creating much favorable sentiment for the meeting through the Journal. New Industrial Training School Pennsylvania has granted a charter for the incorporation of the Isaac Randall Industrial Training School of Afro-Americans. The institution will be located in Sallisbury township, Lancaster county. The purpose of the school is to give the colored boys and girls a fair opportunity along industrial lines. The movement is backed by wealthy white capitalists. H. B. Best holds the list of incorporators. OLD NORTH STATE BAPTIST MEET Roanoke Association Ends Another Prosperous Year. CHEERING REPORTS HEARD. Annual Convention of Influential Religious Body Attended by Delegates and Visitors From All Sections of the State—Interesting Career of Moderator George D. Griffin. Elizabeth City, N. C.—The recent annual meeting of the Roanoke Baptist association held near this city was attended by upward of a thousand delegates and visitors from most every section of the state. The reports from the churches and other organized branches of work connected with the association were highly encouraging. The report on the work of the Roanoke Collegiate institute, which is under the fostering care of the association, was a special feature. This school is doing a great work. Under the leadership of the Rev. G. D. Griffin, B. Th. the association is doing splendid work for education and missions. Dr. Griffin moderator of the Roanoke Baptist association, is one of the best prepared and most aggressive young ministers, the denomination has in this state. He was born in Pasquotank county, N. C. of humble parentage about forty-one years ago and received the rudiment of his early education in the county schools. The Griffin family consisted of father and mother and thirteen children, all of whom are doing some good work. Like most men who follow preaching, the highest calling, Rev. E. H. Griffin, REV. G. D. GRIFFIN, B. TH. father of this large family, was away from home much of the time; hence young George did not receive much of his training from his father, but he had a devoted Christian mother, who directed his life until she had got him beyond the danger line and started him for the successful life which he is now spending for the good of others. It is said that this young moderator of such a large body of Baptists was always settled and plous and was very fond of books, so much so that he often carried a book to bed with him and slept with it under his head. Education was among the first things to claim attention for this promising young boy, so right into the public schools in the county where he was born was his objective point. Rev. Dr. Griffin attended the State Normal school in this city, and in May, 1901, finished the course of study, graduating at the head of the class in theology. With this training he felt that he was prepared to enter the ministry. It was early in 1895 that he was given an opportunity to exercise his gift, for it was this year that he was licensed to preach and was ordained in 1897, thereby adding to the list of ministers one more well prepared man. He was set apart for his work by the Mount Carmel Baptist church. Perhaps it would be of interest to know just what charges he has filled, as this may prove of interest to some of the young men who are struggling to make their mark in life. Dr. Griffin has served as pastor of Little Zion Baptist church, 1896-1900; Galatian Baptist church, Durant's Neck, 1893-1907; Gale Street Baptist church, Edenton, N. C. 1902-4; Haven Creek Baptist church, 1900-5. In the rural districts one minister often pastors three or more churches at the same time. He is also chairman of the executive board of the Ronoke Institute. It was from this position that he was called to the moderatorship of that association. There is something fascinating about newspaper work which is drawing today some of the best men of thought to this line of work. Dr. Griffin was formerly business manager of the Roanoke Tribune and later the position of managing editor of the Hertford (N. C.) Messenger. At his present charge he has been able to erect a fine parsonage and make other improvements in the property. It has the name of being one of the best organized churches in the country and is foremost in its contributions for education and missions. Over 350 members have been added to the church under Dr. Griffin's pastorate. HAMPTON'S GOOD WORK. Annual Report of Principal Frissell Shows School's Achievements. The annual report of Hampton institute, being the forty-fifth since the founding of the school, has been prepared, printed and distributed by the principal, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell. The report covers twenty pages of regular magazine size paper. It is exhaustive in detail and deals with every phase of the inner workings of the institution. No one can read it without being deeply impressed with the tremendous amount of work which the officials of the school have to accomplish in order to keep the various departments up to a high degree of efficiency. Dr. Frissell pays a high tribute to the home in referring to the pioneer work of General S. C. Armstrong, founder of Hampton institute. He says: The most effective educational institution the world has yet produced is the home. In the home the problems to be solved are intensely real, and the solution of them means the power to solve more problems of a similar sort. This power is education. When the founder of Hampton institute was confronted with the problem of educating men and women but later freed from slavery, a race without the traditions of self supporting, self respecting family life, he consciously or unconsciously adopted the home as the model for his school, and he chose that type of home where each member contributes his share of service to the common need. Such a home differs widely from the ordinary school. In the home the motives for its activities are for the most part immediate and apparent; in the school conditions are necessarily more artificial and the prescribed tasks are, from the pupil's point of view, often purposeless. Only purposeful activity has educational value. From the first he insisted that the work incident to the daily life should be done by the students themselves, not merely because his students were poor and must work their way, but because of the educational value of the work itself. The enrollment for 1913 is 839, representing thirty-three states and five foreign countries. The total number of students enrolled in the trade school for the year is 375. Of these 180 are taking full trade courses. One hundred and twenty-four academic students came to the trade school a portion of the time for industrial training, and thirty-three agricultural students spent the three winter months taking special courses related to their work. The amount paid to students in wages this year amounted to $18,682.21. The largest single piece of work which the trade school has done during the past year has been the erection of Clarke hall. The building was begun in March, 1912, and was opened for use February, 1913. The contract price was $26,142.77, and, with the exception of putting on the slate roof, making some plaster cornice (industries not taught here) and a portion of the furniture, all the work was done by students. This called for the services of bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, sheet metal workers, steamfitters, plumbers, cabinetmakers, electricians and painters. Mr. Ludlow of the firm of Ludlow and Peabody, who designed the building, says that the brick work in it compares favorably with similar work around New York city, and some of the local builders have pronounced it the best piece of brick work on the peninsula. Besides completing this special contract, the trade school has kept up the repairs on the school buildings and done work for parties outside the school in seventeen states. This includes furniture, turned wood, reverse gears, steam separators, grate bars, wheelbarrows, wagons and trucks. IMPORTANT COMING EVENT. Features of Program For Closing Week at Fisk University. Nashville, Tenn.—The school year at Fisk university, in this city, will soon come to a close. Active preparations are being made for the annual commencement, which will begin on Wednesday, June 11. Five members of the graduating class have been selected to take part on the program of the public exercises. The commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, a member of the board of trustees. Aside from the general interest which is always manifested in the events of commencement week, there are two features which are attracting considerable attention. The most important of the two is the trustees' report with reference to the endowment fund which the institution has been for the past two years struggling to raise. Every effort is being put forward to complete the fund of $300,000 by June 1. The other feature centers in the work of the junior class, which is preparing to present a play entitled "The Lion and the Mouse." Class day exercises, the usual receptions and farewell meetings by students and faculty will hold the attention of every one throughout the week. The usual large number of out of town visitors is expected. The students and local alumni association have already given a jubilee concert for the benefit of the endowment fund. The concert program of music was participated in by the university Glee club, a large chorus and several noted soloists. The school is widely known for the musical ability of its students, and the May jubilee concert fully sustained the musical reputation of this pioneer institution for higher education. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS WIFE MURDERER LOSES HIS FIGHT Porter Charlton Must Return to Italy. DECISION OF SUPREME COURT Prisoner Upon Arriving in United States From Italy Admits Slaying His Spouse Soon After Being Placed Under Arrest. Washington, D. C. — Porter Charlton must return to Italy to answer the charge of having murdered his wife in June, 1910, at Lake Como. The supreme court so decided Tuesday. Charlton has been a prisoner in the Hudson county (N. Y.) jail nearly three years while the fight for his extradition has been going on. The supreme court's decision affirms the action of former Secretary Knox, who determined to turn Charlton over to Italy. Justice Lurton began delivering the supreme court's opinion in the Charlton case as soon as the court assembled. He said first that no error had been committed in excluding evidence of insanity at the habeas corpus proceedings in the lower court and that no error was committed in making the formal demand for Charlton because it was not necessary to the demand at the extradition hearing. "The conclusion is," said Justice Lurton, "that this government making exception in some treaties that it would not extradite its citizens, shows it was fully aware that there was no exception in favor of citizens in other treaties where the exception was not made, as the treaty with Italy. PORTLR CHARLTON "We come to the question whether the treaty is no longer binding on the United States because Italy has refused to surrender up its subjects." Justice Lurton reviewed at length the correspondence between the United States and Italian governments regarding the attitude of the two governments. He pointed out that it was conceded that crimes committed in Italy were not justicable in the United States, so, if extradition were not granted, the criminals would go unpunished. Crimes committed in the United States, he added, were justicable in Italy. According to international law he held that the treaty, by reason of Italy's course, had not become void, but merely voidable at the option of the American government. The executive department having waived its right to annul the treaty, the justice concluded, nothing remained for the court to do but to enforce its decision. History of the Crime. The body of Mrs. Mary Scott Castle Charlton was found in a trunk near the wave-washed shore of Lake Como, Italy, in June, 1910. It was in a horribly mutilated condition, showing plain marks of violence. The Italian police at once took up the investigation of the case, with the result that a warrant was issued for the arrest of Porter Charlton, charging him with the murder of his wife. A search for young Charlton revealed the fact that he had left the scene of the crime shortly before the corpse of his wife was discovered. His movements were traced to Naples and then aboard the North German liner Princess Irene, bound for America. News of Charlton's whereabouts was cabled to the New York police, and, on his arrival in Hoboken, N. J., on June 22, 1910, he was promptly put under arrest. Within an hour he confessed to the police that he was guilty of the murder. Train Hits Auto Four Die Springfield, Ill.—Four men, three of whom were Chicago businessmen here to appear before a senate committee in the interest of the eight hour law, were killed when an automobile in which they were riding was struck by a Wabash train at Niverton, eight miles from here. The automobile was hurled against a steel switchstand and was wrecked. Three of the men were instantly killed and their bodies so badly mutilated that identification was difficult. Bartel died shortly after the accident. PY FIVE CENTS ROY ORCHARD WOODRUFF C.

WOMEN WIN BALLOT IN STATE OF ILLINOIS Suffrage Bill Passes Both Branches of Legislature. Members of the Fair Sex of the State May Now Vote for All Offices Except Those Named in the Constitution. Springfield, Ill.—The women of Illinois on June 11 won their fight for the ballot. The house of representatives by a vote of $3 to 58 concurred in the womans' suffrage bill recently passed by the senate and sent it to the governor for the signature. He is pledged to sign the bill. The measure was adopted in one of the most dramatic scenes ever witnessed in the Illinois legislature. The interests which have fought equal suffrage followed the bill to the floor of the house. The measure hung in the balance until after Speaker McKinley had cast what was in fact the deciding vote and the call absentees be-gan. Galleries Are Packed. GENERALS ARE PACKED. The women of the state may now vote for all offices except those named in the constitution of Illinois. They will vote for presidential electors, all municipal officers, the boards of review and assessors, drainage trustees, the state board of equalization and many minor officials and on all propositions. The only reason that women were not given complete enfranchisement is the fact that an amendment to the constitution would be necessary to give them a vote on constitutional offices. Cheers Are Deafening. The house galleries were packed and but six representatives were absent when the bill was called. Every rule and twist of parliamentary practice, fair means and foul, were used by the opponents of the measure to delay action. Three separate roll calls were necessary before the enemies of suffrage would allow it to come to a vote. At the end of the roll call Speaker McKinley voted a yea and the ayes were 76, although they should have been 77, just a constitutional majority. There was a moment of tense silence. Then Representative George B. Baker arose and shouted: "Mr. Speaker, record me as voting aye." The cheers were deafening. Books and bills were hurled into the air and a dozen members ran to grasp Baker's hand. On the call of the absentees six more votes were mustered and the roll call stood 83 to 58. FOUR DIE AS BOILER EXPLODES One Is Missing and Eleven Are Rescued When Blast Occurs on Steam Barge. Racine, Wis. — Four men were killed, two injured, one fatally, and one reported missing and eleven rescued when the boiler of the steam barge E. M. Peck, a 2,500-ton steamer owned by Hutchinson & Co. of Cleveland, exploded. The explosion occurred at the coal docks of the Pugh Co. The boiler was blown 200 feet ashore and crashed through the coal sheds of the Pugh Co. The force of the explosion carried with it the stern portion of the vessel deck and scattered it about the harbor. Grand Vizier of Turkey Assassinated, Constantinople, Turkey.—The Turkish grand vizier, Mahamud Skeffet Pasha, was assassinated by two men armed with revolvers, who attacked him while he was proceeding in his motor car to the sublime porte. The alde de camau of Mahamud Skeffet Pasha was also killed by the assassins. It is understood that the men who committed the crime are civilians. It is believed in government circles here that the assassination of the grand vizier was the outcome of a plot against the Young Turks. --- PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY | ee ee | SUBSCRIPTION RATES (in Advance) | Ore Years ceeccccece ee 188 Six Menthe... lc... 1.00 ‘Three Months. ..00000000000 go | Gubscribers are requested to re mit by postoffice money on ‘der or registered letter.

EDITOR MITCHELL IN ERROR. ‘The editor of the Richmond Planet is wrong in several instances: There was and is not “an ex-parte” case, be- cause he was not asked to judge or “pags on anything but merely to give an’ opinion as to the advisability of DuBois and the N. A. A. C. P's taking up new and more important work. ‘The TAIRD great problem is lynch- ing or mob violence; the FOURTH, the one he calls attention to. Then again he is certainly wrong when he says that the “milk in the cocoanut, the vital point at-issue” is anything else but whether or not DuBois and the N. A. A. C, P, should take up the two great big problems named. ‘The matter of funds was only referred to incidentally by The Gaette, and was not “the vital point” being considered by it. For so large a man, Editor John Mitchell, jr, {s certainly “some sidestepper,” but we are not going to permit him to get away in that way. “NEGRO” REGIMENTS. Gov, Tener of Pennsylvania vetoed the Afro-American regiment bill passed recently by that state's assem bly. There are Afro-American mem- bers of Pennsylvania's State Militia, and it is a question, whether or not he has not acted wisely in so doing. ‘Our people of New York are having ‘a queer experience in their effort to Sloat” a similar organization as there are some peculiar “angles” to the N, Y. bill granting an Afro-Amert- can regiment which Gov. Sulzer signed last week, He says the bill is not a general one but that it was “a special city bill, relating to the city of New York, and therefore need. ed the approval of the mayor” of that city before It could become effective. When Mayor Gaynor was asked to approve ft he sald that he could not approve the bill because it was nec- essary that a public hearing should be advertised with reference to it two days in advance of {ts consideration by him. We have not learned that this has been done as yet. However, Gov. Sulzer was to tell Adjutant Gen- eral Hamilton t6 muster in one com: pany of the regiment at the end of the 90 day period specified in the bill. REFUSE $10,000 FROM CARNEGIE FOR A LIBRARY. A $10,000 Carnegie library has been refused by our people of Evansville, Ind, a committee having assured ‘Trustee Edmund L. Craig, who got Carnegie to contribute the $10,000, that they did not desire the library and would do nothing toward raising funds for a site or its maintenance. Furthermore they told him that they looked upon it as a plan to segre- gate them and that it virtually would bar them from the other three local Ubrarles for all the people. They feel that they want to have the liberties ‘of the other libraries on an equal footing with all the other people of that city, and for that reason are dis- couraging the idea of putting up a new library to be used exclusively by ‘our people even if Colored librarians ‘would be in charge of the “jimcrow” Wbrary. Thank God! for those sane, sensible, loyal and intelligent Afro Americans of Evansville, Ind.! “May their kind increase and rapidly, too. Here is a precedent for all of our peo- ple in the North to follow. It ts the correct one, too. The “Colored Ii- Drarians” bait did not work this time and never should in this section of ‘the country. THE TWO PROTECTION PLAT. FORMS. In previous discussion of the Re publican and Progressive platforms { has been shown that the Progressive demand for social and industrial jus- tice covers nothing that is not Re- publican and that upon the tarif,, Dusiness and financial questions they fully agree. Jn the matter of conservation of natural resources the two Chicago platforms, and that of Baltimore as ‘well, make the same demands, except fn the handling of mining lands. The same unanimity 1s seen in the demand for waterway Improvements. ‘The Republican platform makes no declaration in regard to the important questions growing from the opening of the Panama Canal, but, doubtless, the voters are ready to endorse the propositions of the Progressives which are: Panama Canal to maintain compe- ton witb transcontinental railroads; 0 be closed to vessels owned by rail- roads; to be free to American coast- wine ships. ‘The Republicans declared for a par-| o} post and established it. As it has| proved popular it will not again be an issue, As to corrupt practices, each makes a demand which the other does not. The Progressive platform declares for publicity of campaign contributions before as well as after the primary or election.

Planet ot May 21, "13: “EDITOR SMITH’S CRITICISMS. “Editor Harry C. Smith of The Cleveland (0.) Gazette insists that we ‘did not read his editorial carefully and correctly. He claims that he said and intimated that the organization under Dr. DuBois’ leadership was ‘rittering away valuable time and the people's hard-earned money doing little things when there were two great big prop: jositions that concerned all of our peo- ple untouched by the National Asso- elation for the Advancement of Col- jored People. He referred to the ‘grandfather clause’ and the ‘Jim crow’ ear laws. “We understood Hon. Harry C. Smith to say and mean this very thing. We proceeded to cite some of the things which the distinguished ed- {torial writer regarded as ‘little things.’ Boiled down, the entire dis- cussion is @ matter of opinion until the organization comes forward and submits the facts on which a conchi- ‘sion can be reached without prejudice to the Association, “It-seems to us that the ‘long and short’ of the whole business is that Editor Smith is of the opinion that the Association should proceed to test the ‘grandfather’ laws and the jim crow" car laws, and if the money is not available the salaries should be reduced in one department to tur- nish the fees in the other. We sus- pect that our friend will not accept the last alternative as being in his mind and if so we withdraw it in advance, “Of course Dr. DuBois is a scholar —a veritable “book worm’ and he Is not calculated to make friends by petsonal contact. He is ‘icy’ in his demeanor and distant in his habits, but his great ability is luminous and tends to counteract ‘the effect of his other scholarly peculiarities. “As we understand it, Hon. Harry ©. Smith fs not opposed to ihe Na tional Association for the Advance- ment of Colored People but in. tact favors it. He only desires that it ex tend the scope of Its usefulness to the extent of testing. the two great racial questions now confronting and embarrassing the Colored people of the country. Selah.” Right you are, at last, Brother Mitchell. That is exactly what we fare insisting upon and want you and all others of the race press to join lus In doing. We do not care a “rap” how “scholarly” and “ley” and “dis- tant” Du Bois is and how “luminous his great ability.” We want him to make a PROPER effort to “deliver” or “get off the perch.” In Missouri they demand that one “show.” In Ohio, we demand that you “show” and PROVE! If Du Bois will do this, we are still with him and are willing that his salary be doubled, What we want and insist upon, are results anent the two big problems which af- fect ALL of our people, and not only results, anent little ones, affecting in- dividuals only. The case, last week, of 3. W. Green, grand chancellor of our K, P,, is evidence indisputable of the necessity of action in the U. 8. Supreme Court, fathered by Du Bois and the N. A. A. C. P. against the “jimerow railroad laws of southern states. Our wives, mothers, sisters and daughters may be the next to be mobbed and nearly Iynched, as he was, for exercising @ right guaranteed by the U. 8. Constitution, if some- thing’ is not soon done in the U. S. Supreme Court to teach the south that even Afro-American interstate railrqad passengers have rights that | even that section of this peculiar country must respect. Yes! we are insisting that Du Bois and the N. A. A. ©. P. pay some attention to the two great, big problems—disfran- chisement “and “jimerow” railroad cars—that concern ALL of our peo- ple, as well as important cases in- volving practically individuals only. The two big problems are: Dis: franchisement laws, especially those based on the “grandfather clause”; and ‘“jimcrow” car laws, at least as far as they affect interstate passen- gers, And want Editor Mitchell of the Planet, Editor J. R. Clifford of the Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press and all other loyal confreres of the race press, to join us in this demand, Will you and they do it? We sincere- ly hope so. DU BOIS AND THEN.

BYRD HONORED Named A State Commissioner, in Charge of the Religious Depart- ment of the State Emancipa- 4on Celebration: Rochester, N. Y.--Rev. Dr. William A, Byrd, pastor of Trinity Presbyter- jan church, has received notice of his appointment by Gov. William Sulzer, a state commissioner, to arrange for the fiftieth anniversary celebration of the signing of the Emancipation Proc- lamation, to be held in New York city next fall, The celebration was divid- ed by the last legislature into three departments, religious, industrial and educational.” Dr. Byrd, who will have charge of the first, is arranging to ‘open offices in this city and in New York. The central feature of the cel- ebration will be the interdenomina- tional world congress of religions, in which all creeds will be represented, with delegates from many parts of the earth, for the purpose of discussing problems which confront the Afro- American in his religious life, Of first importance in this symposfum will be such questions as the over- churching of certain communities; ri- valry, which causes two or more de- nominations to occupy a field not large enough to support more than one; the temperance problem; the question of the new conception of quiet, but thoroughgoing evangelism, as opposed to the old revivalism me- thods; competitive church. schools and many other matters of vital import- ance on the home field: together with the missionary activities of the church in foreign fields, notably Africa and the West Indies; the Men and Reli- gion Forward movement, new Sunday school propoganda, and the like. The exact date for the congress has not yet been fixed, but it doubtless will be some time between October 18th and Sist, As soon as further details of the celebration are arranged, they will be given out through the local of- Drew and Howe, Great Runners. | Bangor, Me.—Races under the aus- pices of the Oldtown A.

Cleveland, June 7th, 1913. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gaz- ette, Dear Harry:—I am’ this morning in receipt of two marked copies of The Gazette in which yow quote cor- respondence between Councilman Fitzgerald and Director of Public Service Springborn. In his letter of the 7th, Mr, Fitzgerald calls attention to the fact that we will offer the $12, 000 of bonds, authorized by Council to be used for the extension of East 24th Street, to the Sinking Fund. Mr. Fitzgerald recently called upon me to determine what might be done to sell these bonds. Unfortunately the. rate of interest provided for these bonds is 4 per cent, Since the constitutional amendment taxing municipal bonds Was approved at the September 1912 election no municipal or County bonds have been sold at a less rate than 412 per cent, and there are instances very recently where Ohio cities offer- ed 41-2 per cent, bonds for sale with Out a bid: pamper Fs | gS a if Be fae ce ee ee | iA y iss Gack The County of Cuyahoga has been unable to sell its Road bonds which carry a rate of 4 34 per cent. The flood, the fact that money is tight, and more particularly the fact that what were previously known as taxable se- curities now must be returned for taxation is the cause of the present in- activity in the bond market. It is very doubtful {f we could sell the bonds at 4 1-2 per cent. Tassured Mr. Fitzgerald that 1 would submit the matter to the Sink. Ing Fund Trustees in the hope that they may have the available cash, suf ficient to take up these bonds. It fs doubtful however, if this can be done in the immediate future as the Sink- ing Fund Trustees recently purchased from us over $1,000,000 of Street Im- provement bonds which enables us to go forward with the paying and sew- ering of streets, and as you are aware they bought $200,000 of the Municipal Blectrie Light bonds for the comple- tion of the Blectric Light Plant. This has taken up practically all of the available cash that the Trustees have and until they get their next settle- ment, which will be in September or perhaps the latter part of August, it is very uncertain as to whether or not they could purchase additional bonds, Tam quite sure that no member of the administration is opposed to the extension of this street. Personally, I should like to see all streets of this character extended and you may be assured that if there is any probab- ility of the Sinking Fund taking these bonds I will urge it strongly, and if the City offers any of its bonds for sale in the near future we will include this tesue. Yours truly, THOMAS COUGHLIN, City Auditor. WH NOT GET BUSY! ‘And Compel One, the N. A. A. C. P. to Do What Is Most Needed’. Wo recall a play which we wit nessed many years ago. In one of the scenes, a shipwreck. one of the actors exclaimed, “Water all around and yet not one drop to drink,” Pos- sibly no race of people under the sun has more “organizations” than the Ne- gro race. And many of them enjoy the distinction of Biblical names, And yet with all our “organtzations” we are not organized at all. ‘Ten million Negroes—and not one really effective organization among them. They will not hang together, and con- sequently we are daily hanging sep- arately. One of the purposes of dis- franchisement, segregation and_jim- crowism is to force just such an or- ganization as is needed, It will come. Of-this there can be no doubt. We need to feel a little more keenly the deep humiliation of such contrivances before we shall be thoroughly convin- ced that the Almighty answers our prayers by making us the instruments of bringing ourselves the thing for which We pray. All of these contriv- ances will disappear and fall down as the walls of Jericho before any people who have found out the secret of unity of action.—Baltimore (Md.)

If fuch-a woman wanted a simple and Inexpensive white lingerie frock she had it mage ‘at home. Better Models May Be Bought. But the designers and manufactur era have learned wisdom in the last few seasons. They still turn out over trimmed cheap, showy models.

The desired effect then ts pro- vided by a piping of the material let Into the body of the coat in any way that sults the requirements of the Wearer. For instance, perhaps, the back looks too plain and the small collar is not sumicient, Then a square might run from the under erm seam up across the back or it might be a point, Or again, the back of it might be desirable to have it meet high in the center and then separate to give a yoke effect. All of this is possible and without in any way making the cutting or the sewing more complicat- ed, for one has only to mark the line for the piping up on the finished gar- ment with chalk and then introduce it a little at a time so the material will not stretch. Tho line may also be made with equal facility in the front, and the result will be a coat en- tirely different and distinctive, but in no way more dificult to make. The material tor the pipings may match that of the coat or it might be a satin In the same shade or one shade deep- er. Ina black coat the introduced line could be of the flowered silks or st may be anything that happens to sult the desire of the wearer.
