ALLIES RESUME
DRIVE ON SOMME
Storm and Capture More Territory Near Maurepas, One of Enemy's Strong Points.
INFLICT HEAVY PUNISHMENT
Severe Artillery Fighting on Verdund Front continues; Russ Advance Checked; Italians Capture Additional Positions.
London, England.—A new blow, for which the French and British artillery has been preparing the way for more than two days, has struck against the German front, both north and south of the Somme. As a result Teuton trenches were carried on a two-mile front on both sides of the village of Maurepas to a depth of from 350 to 600 yards, while south of the river the German life three-quarters of a mile in length, was seized by the French. Control Highway.
These successes, which mark the opening of the fourth phase of the bloody struggle in Plecardy, have enabled the allies to penetrate at points on the Gullemont-Maurepas road, besides giving them complete control of the highway from Maurepas to Clery. The village of Maurepas itself is practically in their hands. Surrounded on three sides and with French troops engaging the Germans in the outskirts, its complete capture is expected at any moment. The hamlet is one of the foundation stones of the German defense in this region, each house having been separately fortified and each barn a small arsenal.
The attacks, coming on the heels of declarations from Germany that the allied offensive in Picardy was definitely halted and that the German lines could never be broken are taken here to indicate, that the French and British are determined at all costs to keep up their desperate offensive. Heavy losses were inflicted on the Germans, the official statement issued in Paris says.
The French success south of the Somme was won in one irresistible dash, which carried the victorious troopers clear across the German advanced lines. They are now consolidating the positions won despite counterattacks, which are reported already to be in progress.
On the Verdun front there was severe artillery fighting at points, but no important infantry actions.
Russia Moving Forward.
Gen. Letchitsky is moving forward between the Ziota Lipsa and the Dniester, but north of the Dniester, Petrograd reports that the Russian advance has been checked by the strong counterattacks of the Teutons.
Russians, however, have taken a series of heights west of Vorokhta and Ardzemoy and the Austrians are retiring to the westward in this region.
The Italians are moving southeastward from Gorizia toward Trieste, capturing additional Austrian positions on the mountain slopes. A Milan paper publishes a report that Germans have taken over the defense of Trieste, but a little credit is given that report.
SEEK BEST METHOD TO COMBAT DISEASE
Health Officials Meet in Washington to Plan Fight on Infantile Paralysis.
Washington, D. C.—A comprehensive, nationwide plan to fight the dread infantile paralysis scourge that has swept the eastern states is being developed at a conference of health officials from all over the nation. The meeting was called by the United States public health service, civery state health department being asked to send a representative.
Assistant Surgeon General Rucker of the public health service said the conference would co-ordinate and standardize methods of prevention of the disease and of quarantine against it throughout the country. Various officials from the state submitted to the conference their respective methods of combating the plague, and several days will be sent evolving the most effective means of fighting the disease successfully. When the best method has been decided upon it will be placed into operation at once throughout the nation.
Three little Aslatic monkeys of the public health laboratory are helping the scientists in their efforts to discover the best ways of preventing the paralysis. The monkeys are being inoculated with infantile paralysis germs and now have well-developed cases of the disease.
Facing Terms In Pen.
Camp Willis, O. — There is much trouble in store for the men who have so far forgotten themselves as to fail to return to Camp Willis within the specified ten days.
Camp, regimental and company commanders have made up their minds to go the limit with deserters. To bring this, about there has been organized in Camp Willis a special court which will deal with cases of desertion. Conviction for desertion will mean a term in the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth

· Mrs. Frank M. Roessing, vice president of the National American Woman Suffrage association and chairman of its congressional committee, has sent to the House of Representatives a letter to congress a direct inquiry as to his stand on the equal suffrage-question.
CHICAGO WOMEN OPEN PREPAREDNESS CAMP
Chicago, Ill.-Up at Lake Geneva, where in other years they have spent the hot weeks of August plucking and motoring, several hundred women, recruited from Chicago's elite, started to learn to do things for their country.
The women are enrolled in the national service station, which is being conducted under the auspices of the Navy league. Their tents are pitched on the campus of Northwestern Military academy, and for one month they will live the life of soldiers—eat, sleep, drill, work.
When the bugle声 at 6:30 they will arise, put on their loose-fitting khaki suits and flat-heeled shoes, make their cots, put their tents in order, wash at a common pump—all in a half hour. At 7 o'clock they will report to their commanding officer of callisthenes. At 7:30 they will grab their aluminum mess kits and line up for the welcome cry from the field kitchen of "come an' get it." The fare, however, is a little more dainty than the average preparedness camp puts out. Each will receive a portion of grapefruit, shredded wheat, cream, hominy, bacon, bread, butter and coffee.
When they have finished they must clean up their dishes, repack their kits and be ready at 8:30 for classes, which continue until 12:30. These classes will include a variety of things—from giving first aid to how to prepare a field meal. How to make surgical dressings, hospital supplies, how to signal with flags by wig-wagging will be taught. Other classes will learn telegraphy, motor and ambulance driving and attending and the mechanism of the machines.
Lunch will be at 12:30. A sample consists of fish, tomatoes, mashed potatoes, buttered beets, lettuce salad, pickles, bread, butter and sliced pineapple. From 2 to 4 o'clock there will be more lectures and another half hour of calisthenics. Leave may be obtained until the evening mess call at 6. Supper means clam chowder, fresh tomatoes; pickles, crackers, bread, butter, ice tea and stewed peaches. Roll call is at 9 o'clock and taps a half hour later.
SEE END OF STRIKE
COAL OPERATIVES BELIEVE THE HOOKING VALLEY WALK.
OUT SETTLED.
Columbus, Ore. The satisfactory adjustment of the Hocking Valley district coal miners' strike is assured by the operators in an announcement, provided the men return to work at once. This announcement followed a conference of strikers and operators in this city, after the strike had been in progress one week. It is estimated 2,500 miners are affected by the controversy which led to the strike, the main issue of which is the price of powder which the miners must buy.
Woman Drops Burglar.
New Castle, Pa.—Mrs. Lena M. Hornbeck, a young matron living in the Dean block, heard a noise in the hall at 1 o'clock in the morning. Peeping from a partly opened door, she saw a burglar in the act of forcing his way into an adjoining apartment. She brought a heavy piece of the from her bathroom, slipped into the hall and hid the man out with a blow on the head.
When a policeman arrived the burglar jumped up, knocked him to one side and got away.

CAPABLE MEN FOR NEW YORK GUARD
Applicants For Regiment of Colored Soldiers Pass Rigid Examination With High Average—Lively Interest Shown in Effort to Recruit Fifteenth Infantry to Full War Strength.
The Fifteenth Infantry of the national guard, the first regiment of Negroes to receive a New York designation, although not by any means the first to be raised in this state, will be recruited to full war strength in the next four weeks if the enrollment of new members continues at its present rate, says the New York Evening Post. It was the latter part of June that William Hayward, public service commissioner, was commissioned a colonel of the national guard by Governor Whitman for the purpose of organizing the new regiment, and in this short time 425 men have been enrolled. A. B and C companies of the First battalion have been mustered into the state service, with a total membership of 200 men, and 100 men additional have passed the physical examinations. The surgeons who have been examining the applicants say they are the finest lot of recruits ever pressed on for the national guard. Their standard of physical fitness may be judged from the fact that despite the most rigorous physical tests only 20 per cent who apply are rejected. Poor teeth and eyesight, frequent defects among white men, are almost unknown among Negroes, who, it must be remembered, are largely born.
According to Colonel Hayward and the officers detailed to assist him, they are an unusually clean cut lot, intellect gent and keen for work. The men have no armory, their only adequate headquarters as yet being Lafayette hall at Seventh avenue and One Hundred and Thirty-second street, and almost no rifles and uniforms. But notwithstanding these handcaps from 60 to 70 per cent of the recruits report every night for drill, and the schools for officers and noncommissioned officers which have been started are eagerly attended.
A number of men honorably discharged from the four colored regiments of the regular army have collated and already three men have passed their examinations for commissions. V. W. Tandy, an architect, who has been commissioned first lieutenant and assigned temporarily to command of A company, was the first Negro to receive a commission in the New York national guard. Charles W. Filmore, an ex-major of the Ohio national guard and a lieutenant of United States volunteers in the Spanish war, has been appointed captain and placed in command of B company. V. H. Parks, who has seen service in the Twenty-fifth infantry and Tenth cavalry of the regular army, also will be commissioned captain and probably placed in command of C company.
It is the intention to give the Negroes every opportunity to furnish their own officers. A request already has been sent to the war department for the assignment to the Fifteenth of Major Charles Young. Tenth cavalry, the only Negro graduate of West Point now in service and one of the finest officers in the regular army, and of Captain Benjamin O. Davis, cavalry, unattached, who entered the army, through the volunteers in the Spanish war.
In some quarters it is hoped that an arrangement can be made for Major Young to take command of the Fifteenth. He has had thirty-one years' service, including service on the plains in the last days of the Indian frontier, in the Philippines and in Mexico. Besides, he has undertaken special service in Liberia and Haiti, in each case acquiring himself with great success. The most significant tribute to Major Young's tact and personality is the fact that he has never had the slightest trouble with the white officers under his command.
The present plan is for one battalion of the Fifteenth to be recruited in Brooklyn, one in the Harlem section and one partially in Manhattan and the Bronx. Recruiting stations are located at Lafayette hall, in Harlem, and in Brooklyn at 114 Myrtle avenue, besides a recruiting tent at Dean street and Rochester avenue. A fourth company, D, has been mastered in.
Although the regiment will conform in every way to the latest tactical requirements of the United States army, including, besides its twelve infantry companies, machine gun, supply and headquarters' companies, there seems to be every prospect that it will be complete at minimum peace strength by Aug. I and at war strength in a month.
As has been said, this is the first regiment of colored men to receive a New York designation, but so long ago as the civil war three regiments of black troops were raised in New York. The governor refused to recognize them as New York regiments, however, and they were murdered in units of the United States colored troops, their quota of men, however being allotted a New York in all estimates of troops Established for the war by the seven states.
HARRE & HENRY
George W. Norris of Philadelphia, executive head of the new farm loan board, was a reporter for six years after his graduation from the University of Penn. He served as a banker for six years, then became a mister of a banking firm. In 1911 he decided to retire from business in order to make a further study of social and economic questions in which he had become deeply interested. In 1914 he accepted, in December, 1911, the directorship of the municipal department of wharves, docks and ferries. Later he became a director and deputy chairman of the national reserve bank of Philadelphia.
EXPLORER DISCOVERS 'NEW GREENLAND'
Members of. Arctic Expedition Return; Have Been in Polar Regions Three Years.
None, Alaska.—Six members of the Vilhjalmur Stefansson Arctic expedition; who arrived here on the power schooner, Alaska, related their experiences in the polar regions during the last three years.
They said Stefansson, who retained in the Arctic to continue his work of exploring newly discovered land north of Prince Patrick land, probably would not return to civilization during the present season.
The pugly aboard the Alaska was under Dr. Rudolph Anderson, Stefansson's chief subordinate, w.o. had been exploring and charting the coast lines bordering Union and Dolphin straits and the Coronation gulf region, far east of the mouth of the Mackenzie river.
All of the party which left here on the Alaska in July, 1913, returned, with the exception of Daniel Blue, engineer, who died at Bailey Island in May, 1915.
Most of the time since the spring of 1914 the party has been in quarters at Bernard Harbor on Coronation gulf, east of the Mackenzie river, one of the least known sections of the habitable earth.
The last member of the party to see Stefansson was the photographer, Wilkins, who was one of those who departed from the ill-fated Karikh shortly before that vessel was carried away in the grip of the northern ice in the fall of 1913, and later crushed near Herald islands.
Wilkins was with Stefanson last winter, having rejoined him last year. After spending some time with the Stefanson party, Wilkins made the trip over the ice, to Coronation gulf and joined the Anderson party.
Mr. Wilkins learned from Stefanson that the new land which the explorer discovered may be described as a second Greenland. Up to the time that Stefanson left the new land, after his memorable trip across, the frozen sea with Storker S. Storkerion and Ole Anderson, the explorer traced about 200 miles of its shore lines, and found high mountains upon it.
HIS SIGHT IS RESTORED
WYAÑDOT COUNTY MAN, WORSHIPER at SHRINE, SAYS HE CAN SEE.
Upper Sandusky, O. — Blind for years, Albert W. Fishhaugh of Middletown, suddenly saw the light of day while worshiping at the shrine at Carey this week. He was so overjoyed he left by first train for his home to break the news to his mother. Catherine Daugherty, Lima girl, also is reported to have recovered her sight. Elderly persons left the shrine with renewed strength, cripples report great relief, and joy lighted the faces of the suffering whose faith is believed to have brought them heavenly aid.
Five Killed at Crossing.
Elyria, O.-Four women and one man are dead as a result of a New York Central passenger train striking their auto at the Chestnut crossing here. They are: Mrs. C. H. Bittenbender, 55; Mrs. J. E. Emmert, 60; railway postal clerk's wife; Mrs. J. C. Conaway, 50; attorney's wife; Mrs. J. E. Weis, 50; railway postal clerk's wife, and Capt. C. H. Bittenbender, 50; real estate dealer and architect. Elyria was the home of all the victims. The party was returning from a picnic at the time of the accident.
How Hampton Institute Has Encouraged a North Carolina Boy.
Lorenzo C. White of Winston-Salem, N.C., one of Hampton Institute's graduate bridgelayers and for the past year president, and general secretary of the school Young Men's Christian association, has had experiences which have furnished him with abundant opportunities for observation.
At eight years of age his mother hired him out during the fanning season, receiving, for his services $1 a month, which was increased until at the end of six years his wages were $12 per month.
After leaving the farm White at various times worked in a brick plant, as a dry laborer on a street car line and for four years in a tobacco factory. Then White went to Hampton Institute. He has worked two summers away as a bridgelayer among Negro mechanics.
He has had the opportunity of observing his race under varied conditions and says he is particularly impressed with the alleged average Negro's failure to work regularly and systematically, to spend wisely and to lay by for a rainy day. His ambition is to use his Hampton training to help his people become "more efficient workers, to spend their money more indulently, and to have more confidence in themselves and their fellow men."
LOTT CAREY CONVENTION.
Baptist Foreign Mission Body Convenes In Baltimore Aug.27.
Baltimore.—The forthcoming twentieth annual meeting of the Lott Carey Baptist foreign mission convention, which will be held at Sharon Baptist church. In this city, the week beginning Aug.27, promises to be a notable one. The Rev. Dr. W. M. Alexander of 1825 David Hill avenue, corresponding secretary of the convention, will be the entertaining pastor.
The convention has raised about $6,000 for the fiscal year, totaling in all about $75,000 during its history.
DR. W. M. Alexander.
Three-fourths of this money has been spent in foreign fields. The Lott Carey mission house in Liberth, West Africa, has been built at a cost of $7,000. The Rev. Dr. C. S. Brown of Winston Salem, N. C. president of the convention, paid a visit to Haifa recently to look over the field there. He was accompanied by the Rev. A. M. Moore of Durham, N. C.
At the recent meeting of the executive board of the convention held at Norfolk Drs. Brown and Moore made a report of their visit and urged that the convention undertake missionary and educational work in Haifa. It was decided to begin a campaign for the raising of $7,000 to establish the work as soon as possible.
The woman's auxiliary will also meet here the same week. J. D. Randolph of Richmond, Va., is president, and Mrs. Anna L. McGulian of 1403 Division street, this city, is the corresponding secretary.
CHILDRENS' HOME DESTROYED
Institution For Cripples In Philadelphia Sustaina Great Loss.
The absence of twenty-nine girl inmates of the St. Michael and All Angels' Home For Crippled Colored Children at 615-515 North Forty-third street, Philadelphia, probably saved them from a terrible fate when the building was destroyed by fire which occurred recently. The children are at Sea Isle City, and had they been at the home here when the fire was discovered it is believed that many would have lost their lives.
The Rev. J. De Costa Harewood, pastor of the church that bears the name of the institution, believes that the blaze was the work of robbers. The fire marshal, however, is of the opinion that the fire was started by a bolt of lightning.
The home is supported by voluntary offerings, and although there was some insurance on the building, it is not enough to erect another. Managers of the home are considering how they may appeal to the public for financial aid with which to erect another. The summer home at the shore is without heat and could not be used for the children in the winter.
Raising Funds to Run Down Lynchers
The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People held two big meetings on Thursday, Aug. 3, one in New York city and the other in Brooklyn. The meetings were held in the interest of the anti-lynching fund of $100,000 which the association has undertaken to raise for the purpose of blinding to trial the leaders of the Lynching mob responsible for the recent murder horror at Waco, Tex.
SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS.
IN OLD MEXICO, ON THE BORDER!
With Soldiers and Civilians of Both Countries.
Las Cruces, N. M., Aug. 12, 1916.
Dear Friend: Your card is at hand bringing pleasant recollections of forerun days and giving me much satisfaction in knowing that I am still remembered. I have intended to write you frequently but I have procrastinated until the days have become years. On the other hand I have related stories of Cleveland, of The Gazette, of Charlie Hackley, Geo. Sappon, Geo. Tucker, George and Charley Sutton, Fred Sappon and a host of others until I think that those names are well known in Northern Mexico. I suppose what I said was interesting to them for they sat far into the night; Sometimes the children would stop the street and say "Oh, tell us about Charlie Hackley. Couldn't he run fast and couldn't be sing low like thunder." Or the newboys: "Tell us about the money you made selling 'The Gazette.' To the soldiers I told of the time when I belonged to the Ninth Bat. O. N. G., and wore a coat much short. These were simple tales but I am sure they lost nothing in the telling. And sometimes I have told soldiers—ranging in age from eight years to seventeen of my mother and my sister. And then in a few hours—not days! I have knelt beside them while the life bore on my wounds and heard them say: "I'm going to see your mamma and sister soave. Say, don't you think I was brave? And I've said 'Yes, yes, very brave,' and I folded their arms and turned away for they had gone to see my mother and sister.
Well, when the idea of going into Mexico first struck me I bought several Spanish grammars and two diacrities—a small pocket edition and a large one. I intended to study a little before I entered the country, but was busy over places and talked to the poets concerned in that memorable Brownsville affair that I had no time for my books before my entry into Mexico. I was shown the bullet holes in the houses; and I was taken to the salon where there had been trouble—but, I didn't drink, mind you, at though invited). I went all over the buildings we wiped by white troops. Southerners showed me about and appeared to take pleasure in aiding me in every way. (But they spoke disparagingly of our soldiers. Then, right there on the drill ground, I blazed away, telling them what I thought of the whole business and them in particular. I forgot. On mine up and up and made a pass at me. The crowd stepped in and saved me from getting a beating. I guess. He threatened vengeance but later he came to me and apologized as the officer in command of the post had spoken to him, telling him that I would be protected if it took the whole garrison. I thought it could not have been better treated while I stayed in Brownsville if I had been a millionaire.
When I was ready to go to Mexico I exchanged my American money for Mexican, receiving ten dollars for my five American dollars. At the foot of a long flight of stairs I entered a ferry, boat which took me across the Rio Grande and cost me eight cents, Mexican. Right here the river, is sometimes not over waist deep so that losing side up tries to bridge U.S. and S. to avoid killing them like ducks in a pond. When I had disembarked and had passed the custom house, after being searched and paying ten cents, Mex., I found myself in Santa Cruz, a very small town but with several hundred soldiers who eyed me curiously but said nothing. I boarded the street car and after paying ten cents, Mex., started toward Matamoros. Tumapilas. When half way there the driver stopped his horses and came back to me collected ten cents, Mex., again. I began to think that as long as but as we were out of sight of any living soul I paid and said nothing. Finally we reached Matamorgos. There was a good-sized town. In the center stood a beautiful park. And that is a feature of every Mexican town. I have seen—no matter how small the town is—there is a park near the center. I went first to the quartel or soldiers' barracks. There were soldiers too small to carry the whole outfit—boys not more than eight years old. Indians as well as other amusees and Indians as well as other craftsmen. They were very kind, obliqued, and talkative. As I only remembered two words—"sif" (yes) and "caballo" (horses)—they made no understand by gestures, or thought they did. Out of curiosity I arranged myself in a uniform with a hat three-foot high like an ice cream cone. To my ques
tion I had said "si, si" and at the word "caballo" my countenance lightened up. They brought me a horse and I imagined myself learning Spanish "famously." Then suddenly and unexpectedly they rushed me into the quartet. Then I forgot my two Spanish words and spoke English, pure English and told them in unmistakable language that I desired a leave. Then I did not care to joke any farther and that I mongt what I said. But it was no avail. They knew something was wrong but what, they were unable to determine. So they brought me food, then fruit, and then drinks of various kinds. Finally they took to petting, me and hugging me. Their whole manner showed a desire to please and satisfy me. I was not conented. At dusk General Jose Carrillo Chiff came to see me. He spoke English and from him I learned that! had joined the army! To him I explained that I had not known what was being said and that I had said "si" because I did not know any other word "caballo." After he had explained to them, I was released and it was considered a good joke. I then returned to the U. S., but went to Matamoros every day that I stayed in Brownsville, I kept off for a colored people in Brownsville—one a man working for a traveling salesman, a porter on the railroad, and two ladies—mother and "daughter" who lived in Cleveland, thirty-five years, ago.
I shall write you frequently of my Life in Mexico. If you find anything of interest, use it. If not I will write something else. I would be glad to have credentials as your correspondent. It might be possible that I could use them. As I shall be at a lesson several days, I will send letters more within a week. With best wishes to you and all my friends, I am as ever.
Sincerely yours,
WILL EDWIN SMITH.
VALUABLE WORK ON LAW.
Estlmable Service Rendered by Alfred
B. Reeves and Associates
B. Cosey to Lawyers and Laymen.
Attorney Alfred Bonito. Cosey of Newark and the New Jersey bar has compiled for the use of the busy lawyer a compendium of English and American law on title of record with practice and procedure supported by English and American decisions. In the preface to his book the author says:
"The purpose of this book is to present in a condensed form the origin, history, object, use, constitutionality and construction of the American and English recording and registry laws and record title and index thereof; the distinction between them; when, how and by whom deeds and other written instruments conveying real or personal property or interest therein shall be acknowledged, proved, witnessed, recorded, filed or title registered, the number of witnesses required; with references to American and English statutes and decisions, together with the practice and procedure thereon, and the duties of the recording officer or register."
The book contains 415 pages, is cloth bound and looks exactly what it is—a law book—a reference book packed from cover to cover with a mass of useful legal information which every young beginner in the law should have in his library and every old practitioner within easy reach on busy days.
Mr. Cosey has rendered a distinct service to the members of his profession in preparing for their use a volume of such incalculable service to lawyers and laymen. To know what to do and how to do it with exactness and certainty is set out with great minuteness of detail in "Cosey on Tiboe of Record."
It is the most ambitious undertaking by a Negro disciple of Blackstone in the United States of America. With the exception of a small work by the late D. A. Straker of Michigan this is the first legal work from the pen of a Negro lawyer in this country which has come to my notice; says John E. Bruce "Grit."
In Africa, Haiti and other West Indies Islands-Negroes write law books that stand the test of critical examination. The late J. Mensho Larahb "Fantl Customary Laws" have been adopted by the English courts on the Gold Coast, Africa, as standard authority on native laws. Cossy Hayford's "Gold Coast Native Institutions" is a learned legal definition-interpretation of the tribal laws of West Africa which Englishmen are learning to respect.
Mr. Sarabah was in his lifetime acknowledged as the ablest of the many lawyers on the Gold Coast. Cosey Hayford how occupies that position at the Gold Coast bar. This book of Mr. Cosey's is really worth white. It is a decidedly valuable contribution to our racial literature and should have a wide reading. Every Negro attorney throughout the country should possess a copy of "Cosey on Title of Record." I have known Mr. Cosey for over twenty years and have always believed that he was one day going to do something to make himself famous. He has done the trick and deserves, and should have the communication and the substantial one manhood of the members of his family for whom he has performed a service which should not be a shame.

"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our work and stand it."—Abraham Lincoln.
Gov. Frank B. Willis prevented that infamous play, "The Birth of a Nation," from showing in Ohio—Dayton O. () Forum.
He did not do anything of the kind, so Chairman Williams of the state board of film censors said some months ago in a letter to The Gazette which was published repeatedly in this paper. Tell the truth, brother.
At Indianapolis, in January, 1915 President Thomas Woodrow Wilson undertook to treat the Mexican problem with levity. He spoke of himself as sitting back and laughing about it. Since then he has shed crocodile tears over the bodies of men of the navy who were killed at Vera Cruz and he has absented himself from the funerals at Arlington cemetery of the officer and men who met a treacherous death at Carrizal. Just now his mood must be anything but humorous as he traces the path of our bitter humiliation since he first took on his grouch against Huerta.
The National Equal Rights League Rev. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., president, will hold "a race congress" in Washington, D. C., Sept. 15, 1916 for the purpose of considering lynching, distranchisement, segregation and other subjects of vital interest to the race. All who can do so are urged to attend and participate in the proceedings of the congress. If it will be free from political influence and will express itself frankly and truthfully, from a racial viewpoint, on the Wilson administration and Candidate Hughes' administration as governor or New York state, much good will result.
In spite of Senator John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, and his Democratic associates, the New York National guardsmen, who are down on the border protecting and otherwise enriching the citizens of Texas, are not to be deprived of their vote. The attorney general of New York has ruled that the "Empire State" guardsmen may vote under the section of the state constitution which provides for such voting "in time of war." President Wilson claims to have "kept us out of war", but surely nothing is lacking from warfare but the word itself. There are 17,000 New Yorkers down on the Texas border to help out Mr. Wilson and his party—and when they come to vote in November, as their attorney general has said they may, they will doubtless help him out in a very literal sense.
THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.
Harry, how is Herrick—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press, J. R. Clifford, Esq., editor.
Col. Myron T. Herrick, Republican candidate for U. S. senator in Ohio, is a good man and has always been friendly disposed toward the race but in the past has been most unfortunate in the selection of his political advisers and immediate political assistants, both white and colored. His future success, if elected, is dependent largely upon a change, in this respect, which is sure to come if the Colonel has properly benefited by the more or less bitter experiences of the past.
The recent light primary election vote in Ohio, at which he and others were nominated, does not by any means assure the election of the Republican ticket in this state, this fall, although we firmly believe that presidential candidate Hughes will carry the state. The election of many county Republican candidates in Ohio, in November, especially those in this (Cuyahoga) county, is largely dependent upon the increased vote our presidential candidate is expected to draw to the polls. If it is not large, many Republican candidates in this and other counties of Ohio, will go down to defeat.
"AMERICA FIRST AND EFFICIENT"
A powerful arraignment of the Administration; a faultless and dignified presentation of the argument for the prosecution. Such was the speech of Charles Evans Hughes in which he formally accepted the Republican Presidential nomination. "We come to
state in a plain and direct manner our faith, our purpose and our pledge." is Mr. Hughes' opening remark. And what follows is plain and direct. No flowery verbosity; no rhetorical curricules requiring editorial interpretation; no "weasel words"; but facts, plainly put and striking home. Not only did Mr. Hughes expose the stick and straw construction of the Democratic party, but he presented a plan for a nobler, more stable structure, founded on "a dominant sense of national unity" with the Republican party, "the agency of national achievement," as the master builder, and, we are confident, with Mr. Hughes the guardian of the edifice.
Mr. Hughes epitomized his desire for American supremacy in a sentence which will be the watchword of his party: "AMERICA FIRST AND AMERICA EFFICIENT." He then outlined the duties of the Executive in respect to our foreign relations and instanced how, at the very time when most we needed the services of trained and experienced diplomats they were recalled and the service demoralized by the appointment of tyros whose sole qualification was that they were "deserving Democrats."
As was anticipated, the Mexican policy was Mr. Hughes' chief point of attack. It is the Administration's weakest point. It is the perfect type of a vacillation and instability of purpose, exceeded never, equalled, perhaps, but once in our history, and that was when the shiftness of Jefferson and of Madison culminated in the War of 1812. There is not a red-blooded American who can read the Hughes indictment of the Administration in regard to Mexico without blushing for the shame which has been put upon this Nation. Huerta, recognized by Europe, was denied recognition by us, and then an emissary was sent to treat with him. We demanded a salute from him while denying his leadership, and retired without receiving it, leaving 19 of our dead in Vera Cruz. Denying that we were at war with Mexico, our dead soldiers were praised as having died in a war of service. Later it was denied that we went after the salute. It was explained we went to Mexico to show them we meant business. We labored to get Huerta out of office while England and Germany got our citizens in Mexico out of peril. On the arms and ammunition embargo the Administration changed front five times. We advanced the cause of Villa, then turned on him and recognized Carranza who had refused to attend the conference called by President Wilson, and who has never pretended to be able to maintain orderly government. American citizens have been massacred and American property destroyed and there is no redress, notwithstanding the Democratic platform declaration of 1912 that the constitutional right of American citizens should "go with them throughout the world." What a sickening chapter!
In the matter of preparedness, Mr. Hughes showed that the Administration has followed, not led. Three times has it changed front on its own program, and after three years of warning the National guardsmen were called from their peaceful occupations and sent to the border without proper equipment, without necessary supplies, and without suitable conditions of transportation.
In his outline for national defense his proposal for an international tribunal to settle disputes, his demand for the safe-guarding of our economic independence, South, East, North and West, by means of a protective tariff for the upbuilding of our merchant marine, and for fiscal reform, Mr. Hughes shows a comprehension of our national needs and a breadth of statesmanship which give the country serene confidence in his constructive ability, and which are in striking contrast with the makeshift, anything-to-catch-votes, devices now being put through by the party in power. He outlines conditions which are to be met after the war, and warns us that at present we are living in a fool's paradise, industrially. He stands for adequate Federal workmen's compensation laws, and he favors votes for women. The acceptance speech was a model of enlightenment, straight forwardness, and upstanding Amercianism, and the public had grown dog tired of emasculated utterances. Hughes and manhood will win the day!
LUNA PARK OUTRAGES.
If ever there was a case of "selling a birthright for a mess of pottage," our people of Cleveland were given a striking illustration of it on Monday week at Luna Park, this city. In the face of the fact that their wives, sisters, and brothers, as well as themselves, are grossly discriminated against—denied their civil rights—in that place of amusement every day in the year that it is open, because our people will not go into the courts use our Ohio civil rights law and break down the color lines drawn there, the Cleveland Association of Colored Men, an organization with a membership that boasts of average intelligence and some self and race respect, for the fourth or fifth time inveigled thousands of local Afro-Americans and a number from nearby cities and towns into attending, on Monday week at that park, its annual money-making advertisement as an "emancipation celebration." This, too, in the face of protest after protest from the manly and womanly of our people of this community, extending over a period of four or five years. On every day of the year that Luna Park is open, it is a notorious fact that the roller skating rink, dance hall and bathing pool are closed to our people, except on the days (two, annually) the Cleveland Association of Colored Men and the Cleveland Caterers' Association (Colored men) use it. Even on these days the bathing pool is closed to the Negroes who so far forget themselves and their civil rights as to visit the park. More than this, they are taken unfair advantage of in various other ways, such as being overcharged by a lessening of the time allotted them for a fee in the roller skating rink and the dance hall, and in various other places at the park. The management reaps a golden harvest from the Negroes visiting the park on the two "Negro" days each year, only an

insignificantly small part of which ever reaches the treasurers of the two race organizations named. In plain words, twice a year, led by the Cleveland Association of Colored Men and the Caterers' Association, Negroes are inveigled into paying that park management, in hard-earned and much-needed dollars, a great big golden royalty for denying them civil rights and privileges in the place every day in the year it is open, thus holding them up to the ridicule and contempt of the manly and womanly of other classes or races of people in this community. Is it any wonder that prejudice increases so rapidly and that public places of amusement, entertainment and accommodation are so rapidly multiplying in which our people are being denied their rights and privileges, when our own will make it more profitable for them to so mistreat and insult us than to accord us what we are clearly entitled to under the law as men and women—CITIZENS! And if the decent, and respecting Afro-Americans of this community, with the proper manhood and womanhood, are to continue to sit supinely by and see this sort of thing go on from year to year, as it has been for the past four or five years, how much the surrender and personal or organization gain Negroes, like those in the two organizations named who persist in attracting our people to line Luna Park to be relieved of their hard earnings—we reduce, how much hard will it take to reduce the Afro-Americans of this community to the level of their brothers and sisters in the meanest locality in the far south, as far as their civil rights and privileges in public places are concerned? It is high time an effort was again being made to show both organizations and all such—organizations and men of the race—that the desire for personal or organization gain must not be cultivated at such tremendous sacrifice of self and race respect, manhood and womanhood, civil rights and privileges. It is an outrage upon those of the race in this community that will reach out and beyond the men and women of today on down to the children who are the men and women of tomorrow. God knows we ought to make conditions better for them if not for ourselves. We should not tolerate any more such reprehensible acts as these Luna Park affairs, because they are unquestionably slowly but surely making living conditions in this community infinitely worse and subjecting us all to ridicule and contempt most of us are not entitled too.

CHEERING REPORTS HEARD. Delegates and Visitors to Annual Summer Session of State Organization Benefited by Contact With Workers From the Various Schools—Service For Late Dr. M. W. Vaughn.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Newark, N. J.—The annual summer meeting of the New Jersey Baptist state Sunday School convention was held at the Mount Olive Baptist church in this city on Thursday, Aug. 3. The first period of the morning session was devoted to the usual devotional service and was led by Superintendent Joseph Cox of the First Baptist Sunday school at Cranford, N. J. Mr. Cox was assisted by Mr. J. Moody, associate superintendent of the Elenzen Sunday school at New Brunswick. The main sessions of the convention were presided over by the president, Thomas C. Woody, of Roselle. The address of welcome on behalf of the convention, church and school was delivered by the pastor, the Rev. W. W. Fleming. The address was timely and interesting. The response was made by Superintendent McCoy of the school at Englewood. A duct by the Misses Alice Wilmore and Martha Lewis concluded the welcome exercises.
The subject for general discussion was "The Elevating influence of the Sunday School In the Community." This topic was opened by the Rev. William J. Jones of the Second Baptist Sunday school, Roselle. The Rev. Mr. Jones, who has had considerable experience in religious work in connection with young people, gave a thoughtful and practical discourse on the subject, which paved the way for a most profitable discussion by a large number of delegates. The reports from the various schools showed a healthy growth in membership, regular attendance and social service to the community rendered by the Sunday school official, teachers and pupils.
The conference hour was one of the most brilliant and helpful periods of the convention for teachers and superintendents. Departmental work was discussed under the following heads with leaders from the various towns and cities: The beginners' department which under the graded system includes pupils whose ages range from three to six years, was widely presented by Miss Mattle Green of the Mount Olive Sunday school at Plainfield; the primary department, with pupils from six to nine years of age with a select course of study covering a period of three years, was led by Mrs. Hendricks of Orange; the junior department work and that of the intermediate senior and home departments was outlined by Miss Ella Bland of Newark Marshal M. Hays, J. E. Sadler of Montclair, who is the editor of the Eastern Observer, and Mrs. M. M Hayes of Plainfield, respectively.
The teachers' relation to their classes was the subject of a well prepared paper read by Miss Violet A. Johnson of Summit. Miss Johnson gave the convention the benefit of her experience in class management. This feature of the teachers' work is one of the most critical and important phases of Sunday school ethics. Miss Johnson's paper proved a distinct benefit to the convention.
Business hour was observed at the afternoon session, at which many topics of Sunday school management and discipline were gone over. The Rev. D. Y. Campbell of Plainfield read a very instructive paper on the "Ideal Sunday School Teacher." The paper was discussed by members of the convention, who gave bits of their personal] experience as teachers and officials of Sunday schools and leaders of religious effort among young people.
The evening session was devoted to hearing of reports from delegates who attended the New England Sunday school convention held in Philadelphia in June and short addresses by visitors. Former Superintendent Epps and Michael Jones were in charge of the preliminary exercises. Officers for the fiscal year were: Thomas C. Woody, president; J. E. Sadler, R. L. Burrell, W. Woundtreet and Marshal M. Hayes, vice presidents; Miss Gladys Jones, recording secretary; Miss Pinkie E. Anderson, assistant recording secretary, and Frank J. Smith, corresponding secretary. A solemn service was held in memory of the late Rev. Dr. M. Waugh, treasurer. The eulogy was pronounced by Rev. J. R. Brown of Newark. The Rev G. W. Krygar of East Orange rendered a vocal solo, which was well received. The missionaries of the convention are J. W. Hayes, R. F. Logan, Rev. G. W. Warrington and Mrs. A. M. Shederick.
Miss Austin Makes Fine School Record
Miss Charlotte Louisa Austin, who was graduated from the college of pharmacy. University of Pittsburgh recently, has the honor of being the first colored girl in Pittsburgh to graduate from that department of the university. She is a graduate from Pittsburgh Central high school, class 1914 and is one of Pittsburgh's most accomplished young women. She has bright prospects for either a business or professional career.
A TRIBUTE.
In love and remembrance of our dear husband, James M. Tilley, who departed this life one year ago, today August 19, 1915.
We always, yes, we love him,
But angels love him more;
And they sweetly called him
To yonder shining shore.
The golden gate was opened,
A gentle voice said come;
And with a farewell unspoken
He entered the Eternal Home.

YOUNGSTOWN.—The census report of 1910, the last regular census taken, gives some interesting statistics with regard to Afro-Americans. Lowell, Mass., has the smallest population of our people, 133, of any of the cities given and, if we except greater New York, Washington, D. C., with its 94, 446, the largest. Of these southern cities, 144, 446, has leads, its Afro-American population, 89, 262, Atlanta, Ga., has 51, 909, Birmingham, Ala., 52, 363; Louisville, Ky., 40, 522; Memphis, Tenn., 52, 441; Nashville, Tenn., 36, 523; Richmond, Va., 46, 733; St. Louis, Mo., 43, 960, and Baltimore, Md., 84, 749. Chicago, Ill., in 1910, had 44, 103, a larger number than that of any other western city given in the list. Philadelphia is credited with 84, 459; Pittsburgh with 25, 623; Chicago with 15, 366; Greater New York, 18, 3418. These figures will be something of a surprise to many people who, without taking the trouble to inform themselves, imagined that pretty nearly all of our people live in the south.

W. A. Brown, a trustee of Cory M. E. church, informs The Gazette that its case in "nuny" court, recently, against R. S. Jury resulted favorably to the church. The appraisal value of the latter's goods levied on it $133.75. Justice's brother-in-law, Mr. Geo. Brooks, went on his bond for that amount to secure the release of the defendant. The Gazette and therefore must settle the judgment to that amount in case Justice fails to do so. He says that the original amount due Cory church from Justice was $400, of which $100 was paid and 12 notes for $20.50 each given; $85 were subsequently paid, leaving $233 to which this recent $133.75 is to be applied, leaving a balance of $99.25 still due the church from Justice, Mr. Brown says. He also says that he has notified "Noomdy" to "get busy," too, as his case, if it is still standing when the Justice case is settled, will be the next to be taken up. Justice is again at business in Cedar Av. near E. 36th St.
THE OLD RELIABLE GAZETTE
Last week's issue of the Cleveland, Ohio, Gazette made it 34 years old. It denotes pluck, ability and success. It also shows that its editor found the path for which, and kept therein, nature fitted him for. We have read no books about the nature of bood rights. It has unceasingly bettered for better citizenship; better homes, better schools, better churches and a better government. Its editor has his peculiarities—we all have—but the life he has lived will never die, because he has made the world his home. He has made but one serious blunder; he should have had a Mrs. Smith and a half dozen or a dozen little Smiths to turn to and perpetuate his excellent paper. However, long may he and his paper live—is the sincere wish of the writer—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press.

Manhood Alone Is What Counts
Labor, calling, profession, scholarship and artificial and arbitrary
istinctions of all sorts, are incidents and accidents of life and pass away.
It is only manhood that remains, and it is only by manhood that man
is to be measured. When this proposition shall be comprehended and ac
copted, it will become easy to sce that there is no euch thing os menial
work in this world. No work that God sets a man to do—no work
to which God has specially adapted a man’s powers—can properly be
called either menial: or mean. The man who blacks your boots and
Blacks them well, and who engages in that variety of labor because he
can do it better than he can do anything else, may have, if he choose,
just as sound and true a manhood as you have, not only after he gets
through the work of his life, but now, with your boots in one hand and
your shilling in the other. There is very much dirtier work done in
politics and sometimes in the professions, than that of blacking boots;
work, too, which destroys manhood, or renders its acquisition impossible.

Boys Weaker Than Girls.
4n view of the number of men killed
by the war, the result of a study now
being made by an English physician
is rather pessimistle as regards the
future masculine supremacy of the
race, For @ period covering nearly
five years his study indicates that the
mortality of boys under a year of age
has been from 128 to 125, as compared
with 100 for girl bables, Nothwith-
standing the fact that at birth boys
have the advantage of four to five
ounces of weight over the average girl
baby, they have less resistant power
and ure therefore less able to throw
off disease. The reports upon babies
born since the war are Incomplete, but
they Indicate that while the number of
boys born is considerably in excess
of the girls, the number who survive
their first year 1s so much less that
there is no hope of the men of the
next generation equaling the number
of women.

leaning is all Ghat they need.

‘colorers of various sorts, $0, If you
have a soiled white straw hat, frst tey
cleaning it with some bottled or boxed
preparation und then, if it remains
‘soiled looking, try coloring it with
‘some other preparation.
So, too, If a white frock or blouse
seems yellowish or grayish, boll it rst
in water to which « little washing soda
is added. If tt bleaches nicely, well
and good. If not, get some dye und
