'SHIP ,WAS ATTACKED WITHOUT WARNING' Captain of Strathdene Says 13 Shots Were Fired at Ship Before Crew Got Into Boats. New York City—Thirteen shots were fired at the British steamship Strathdene, one of the vessels sunk by a German submarine off Nantucket, before the 33 members of the crew had taken to their boats, according to Capt. Wilson, the Strathdene's commander, who was brought here with his crew by the Uruguayan steamer P. L. M. No. 4. "My ship was attacked without warning," declared Capt. Wilson, after he had given a detailed statement of the incident to the British consul general. "Thirteen shots were fired before we left the vessel. None of the shots, however, struck the船 until we had taken to the boats." Under instructions from the consul general, Capt. Wilson declined to give out further information. Consular officials said Capt. Wilson's report first would have to be forwarded to the British ambassador at Washington before he could discuss the sinking of the Strathdene. Members of the Strathdene's crew said that after they had pulled away from their ship they saw the submarine approach the oil steamer Christian Knudsen, whose crew seemed to be getting ready to lower their boats. The submarine then returned and torpeded the Strathdene, and again steamed toward the oil ship and apparently replenished her oil tanks. Several torpedo boats were in the vicinity, the sailors said, when the two ships were sunk. Officers of the rescuing ship asserted the Strathdene's officers told them that the submarine was made fast to the tanker for three-quarters of an hour, taking oil, before that vessel was sunk. Accounts of the torpedoing of the Strathdene told on board the P. L. M. No. 4 by the rescued crew corroborated Capt. Wilson's statement that his ship was fired on before the officers and crew got into the boats. Capt. Wilson and his crew also witnessed the torpedoing of the British steamship Kingstonian, which occurred while he and his crew were in their boats making their way to Nantucket lightship. Capt. Wilson said he did not know what became of the Kingstonian's crew other than that they appeared to have gotten safely into their lifeboats. Hold Berlin to Her Promises: Asbury Park, N. J. — President Wilson, it can now be stated with semi-official sanction, considers the presence and activity of German submarines on this side of the Atlantic a menace only in so far as the safety of American lives is concerned. Just before receiving the kaiser's representative the president authorized the following statement: "The government will, of course, first inform itself of all the facts, that there may be no mistake or doubt so far as they are concerned, and the country may rest assured that the German government will be held to complete fulfillment of its promises to the government of the United States. I have no right now to question their willingness to fulfill them." Jury Indicta Twelve East; Liverpool, O. — The grand jury's secret indictments in charges of gambling resulted in the arrest here of 12 men, one of whom, Harry Karagianis, owner of a pool room, was indicted on $3 counts. William Reed, owner of a business block, was indicted on charge of renting a room for gambling purposes and allowing gambling. Counts against 10 others on charges of running gambling rooms, playing poker and promoting the playing of pool were returned. THE GAZETTE Warms Vessels Before Attack Naval Officers Think Germans Have Secret Base in U. S. NO LIVES REPORTED LOST American Ship, Stopped, Allowed to Proceed; Many Americans Were Aboard One of Ships; Shipping is in Panic. Newport, R. L. — It is reported here that, a seventh ship had been sunk. Her identity was unknown, but destroyers were searching for her. Four destroyers of the American flotilla came into harbor here early this morning bringing 216 persons rescued from the ships sunk by the German submarine. Thirty-five women and 10 children are among those on the Eriesson. Boston, Mass. — Four British ships one Dutch and one Norwegian have been torpedoed and sunk within 12 hours close to the coast of the United States, presumably by the armed Teutonic submarine U-53, which paid a fleeting visit to Newport, R. L., and dashed to sea again after leaving a letter to be mailed to Count Vor Bernstorf. The ships sunk are the Strathdene West Point, Stephano, Kingston Biominerdik and Christian Kundsen. Of these the Stephano, a Red Cross line steamer, was the only one that carried passengers. The crews of the Strathdene and the West Point were given ample warning and all escaped before the ships were sunk. All the passengers and crews of the torpedoed vessels have been accounted for with the exception of the crew of the Kingston. Those men were missing and are being sought by the American destroyer Cushing. It is supposed that the crew of the Kingston took to their lifeboats. United States naval authorities express an abiding conviction there is a secret Corman submarine base somewhere along the American coast and that the U-53 was not alone in her voyage across the Atlantic. Some believe a submarine flotilla of formidable numbers is on the coast to disorganize the shipping of the allies. One Ship Hit by Three Torpedoes. The theory that more than one submarine is operating is based partly on reports that one of the vessels destroyed was struck by three torpedoes. Only eight torpedoes could be seen on the U-53 when she was at Newport, and at least six torpedoes appear to have been used. The Stepiano, by far the most important victim of the U-boat, carrying nearly 100 first and second cabin passengers, including many American tourists, was sunk at Nantucket lightship, near the Rhode Island and Massachusetts stores, at 4:30 p.m. The daring activities of the U-52 started early in the morning. She slipped out of Newport harbor and submerged just inside the three-mile limit at 7:05 o'clock Saturday night. AT dawnlight she turned up southeast of Nantucket and got in the way of the American steamer Kansan, bound from New York for Genoa by way of Boston, with freight. The Kansan was flying the American flag. She was stopped by the 'submarine at 5:30 o'clock. Assured that the Kansan was an American owned vessel, the submarine later allowed her to proceed. A half hour later the submarine encountered the Strathdene, commanded by Capt. Wilson, and under charter by the French line. A subsequent message from the Nantucket lightship stated that the Strathdene had been sunk at 6 o'clock and that the crew of 20 men were on the lightship. Pursuing her hostile course, the submarine next came up with the West Point, bound from London for Newport News. The crew was ordered to their boats and the ship was torpedoed. In rapid succession the wireless sputtered its tales of disaster to the other ships. The Kingston was the next to sink. Then followed the Bloomersdik and the Kundsen. A wireless was received from the destroyer Drayton saying she was returning under forced draught with 68 survivors of the Bloomersdik and the Kundsen. Newport, R. I.—With the allied cruisers guarding the steamship lanes, submarine raiding ceased Monday. But, under the surface of the water near Nantucket light, at least one German U-boat, the U-53, lies ready to strike. Rear Admiral Albert Gleaves, commander of the torpedo boat destroyer flotilla, says, there is only one German raider here. Eye-witnesses testify that there are two, perniaps more, and that they are tended by a "mother ship" with a cargo of torpedoes and bombs. KILLS Wife and Self. Newark, O.-John Myers, aged 31, a cement contractor, shot and killed his wife in a boarding house in the city's residential district. He then turned the gun upon himself, dying instantly. Myers left a note blaming a wildly, known man here for his troubles. He requested that he and his wife be buried in the same grave. After shooting his wife he ran from his room flourishing his revolver, and as other boarders started, toward him he cried: "I've killed Willie and now I'll end it all." ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883.

Allledged Attempt to Wrench Control of Progressive Institution From Its Present Chief Official Met With Defiance—Auditor of Morris Wing of National Body Questioned. The alleged attempt of the National Baptist convention to oust Miss Nannie H. Burroughs from the presidency of the National Training School For Women and Girls at Lincoln Heights, Washington, has met with a tremendous host of objectors. This new move on the part of some of the officials of the convention has stirred the entire Baptist denomination among the colored people of the United States. The following statement issued by a member of the women's auxiliary convention voices the sentiment and attitude of Miss Burroughs supporters. The statement says: The men's department of the split Nation's 90th district convention chose as their main channel for diversion at the 1916 session Miss Nannie Burroughs and the National Training school at Washington. They have indeed met with a different proposition than that of Mr. Boyd and the publishing house at Nashville, Tenn. It will not be long before these worthy gentlemen discover that they have met their Waterloo. Word has gone out that the men of the very dignified National Baptist con- NANNIE HELEN BURROUGHS, A. M. vention have resolved that the National Training school shall become their property and its management and affairs be placed in their control, so it is said. Should failures dictate to successful women? For eighteen years the men have been raising money for the purpose of building a theological seminary and as yet do not own a brick. No wonder they marvel at the ability of one woman to rear up such a work as the National Training school in the course of six years. Hardly is it to be expected that they can realize the work of Mr. Boyd in connection with the publishing house. Should such men dictate as to how the work of the training school should be carried on, much less to take upon themselves its entire control? What have they done with the money raised for the seminary? Associate Officers Made No Defense. The women who went to Savannah, Ga., recently might have been tools, but the hundreds who helped to build up the "National Training school are not. They will see that the one who has borne the burden shall stay and complete the work begun. Why did Miss Burroughs' sister officers sit with months buttoned-up and hold the clothes while the cowardly failures stoned the innocent victim of their petty jealousy? Unless they were part and parcel in the whole conspiracy—and are willing to give up their property into the hands of the men. The would be auditor of the convention claims that his purpose is to protect the interest of the property. He has probably failed to read article 9 of the bylaws, which furnishes full protection. We would refer him to the section which reads: "So long as the woman's auxiliary and the national Baptist convention shall foster the institution the executive staff of both conventions and the secretaries of the boards shall always be members of the boards of trustees. "At their first meeting the trustees shall divide themselves into classes by alphabetical arrangement of states as nearly equal as possible, these classes to serve one, two and three years respectively, but all trustees to continue in their offices until their successors have been elected and signified acceptance thereof. Subsequent elections shall be for the term of three years, except in case of vacancies, which shall be filled for prescribed terms of the class in which the term." Rather would we trust the hylaws then the word of a man who auditor books, and auditor reports which are thousands of dollars out of the way in one place the auditor states that there has been paid to Miss Burroughs, $1,900, whereas she has received but $230. This distorting of figures was done with either pincers design or gross incompetence. In either case the innocent victim suffers, for which the auditor should be made to answer. He should further be made to furnish Miss Burroughs the difference. Of course he offered an apology, but that does not suffice, when in his financial report there are errors amounting to eight or nine thousand dollars, for which the convention would be responsible. Auditor Rogers' Report Under Fire. When Miss Burroughs sought to point out the errors in the auditor's report she was met with yolls, "We'll stand by our auditor. Give us Rogers." How gloriously inspiring to the great Baptist family it must be to see the dominant organization resolve itself into a machine of oppression against one woman. Yes, stand by Rogers, a man and proven failure as an auditor. Down with Miss Burroughs, a woman who is a successful educator and builder. Rogers will need several, people to stand by him and to those who were not present and he is shine read of the affair. It seems a carved that he was not bodily elected from the platform. Something more than momentary indignation should follow the treatment of our corresponding secretary, M. M. Rogers will that the women "puzzling angels" before he has finished with his claims. Miss Burroughs has given her heart's blood to make the National Training school what it is today. The same gluttonous principles which prompted the controversy concerning the publishing house and resulted in the disgrace and deplorable split in Chicago are again at work. As was predicted at that time this was the first opportunity to cause a disturbance among a hitherto peaceful body. The women's meeting had been both successful and uplifting, when these resolutions were unframed through for the property of the National Training school to be removed from the lands of the trustees—no doubt the business that here was a good fit. Jack-leg professors seeking a way to do and obviously convenient for us, who have sons and daughters educate But the women will protect the property of the National Training school regardless of the contemplated robbery. What explanation has president Morris's to offer concerning his attitude in permitting this same auditor to be reelected? "A woman who can start up and build up an institution that carries an intrinsic value of $55,000 and a moral and beneficial value to the race of several hundred thousand dollars is as well prepared to handle the affairs of the National Training school. Miss Burroughs is better fitted than any man coming out of common country schools, who has never had a job at anything more than teaching in rural schools and gauging whisky for the government, who suddenly leaps into prominence through political chancery and wire pulling in secret societies. To the minds of the public it is the job of the man who has built this national institution should stand at its head till Gal says, 'It is enough—come up higher.'" The news of this contemplative movement has traveled like wildfire, and the entire country is supporting Miss Ephrouts and her work. She is besieged with telegrams and personal messages of encouragement and sympathy and has been tendered the support of a host of influential friends from every section of the country and representing every walk of life. Mr. Rogers would find himself, a most uncomfortable guest should be have the tenacity to impose his unwelcome presence in Washington, New Jersey or New York, where the influence of Miss Burroughs has been felt for all that is good and uplifting. Miss Burroughs Worked For Peace On a plan for peace an article which appeared in the weekly papers of July 15 the writer clearly set forth Miss Burroughs' attitude as being first and last for peace and unity in the denomination. Her only fear was that dissension might be sown in the ranks of the women by the warring men. It was in the spirit of peace that Miss Burroughs' sought by every possible means to bring the bodies together. This commendable effort was pounced upon by another very ingenious brother in the person of Rev. L. K. Williams, also of Texas, who by distortion of fact and frightening of words sought to place Miss Burroughs in the gudge of a disturber, accusing her of desiring to set up the women independent of the men. This was as far from her thoughts as the poles are apart. This act of the convention only drives the women to do so, as a matter of self defense. The women of this country who have worked to hold up Miss Burroughs in building up this work are prepared to go to the last ditch with Miss Burroughs in holding her at the head of this work. It is not left for Miss Burroughs to say that she will resign even though her heart must bleed under the terrible strain. Yet she represents a cause that will suffer immeasurably more than any individual can. The National Training school is the property of the convention. Its rights are amply protected by a board of trustees. The work of the training school has become effective through the genius and skill of Miss Burroughs, and it is to her the women look for its continuance. In her initiative, the materials she had to work with, the obstacles with which she was confronted, Miss Burroughs may be allotted to the wise men in Europe-lastes 9:14-15. Fifty Representative Colored Americans Were Recent Guests of Dr. J. E. Spingarn at His Summer Home, Where a Frank Discussion of Problems Confronting the Race Waa Hold, Amena, N. Y. - Fifty representatives of the Negro race of every school of thought and every form of activity held an important conference recently at Troutweek, the country home of Dr. J. E. Spingarn, near here, having been invited by Dr. Spingarn, in order that the leaders of thought from every section of the country might freely and frankly discuss vital questions confronting the race and endeavor to DR. J. E. SPINGARN. assertain the most advanced position that all might agree upon and hold as vantage ground from which to work for new conquests by colored Americans. Every phase of the race question was discussed. The following report was unanimously adopted: Your committee submits the following report for your consideration: The Amenia conference believes that its members have arrived at a virtual unanimity of opinion in regard to certain principles and that a more or less definite practical result may be expected from its deliberations. These principles, and this practical result may be summarized as follows: First.-The conference believes that all forms of education are desirable for the Negro and that every form of education should be encouraged and advanced. Second.-It believes that the Negro, in common with all other races, cannot achieve its highest development without complete political freedom. Third.-It believes that this development and this freedom cannot be furthered without organization and without a practical working understanding among race leaders. Fourth.-It believes that antiquated subjects of controversy, ancient suspicious and factional alignments must be eliminated and forgotten if this organization of the race and this practical working understanding of its leadership be the fifth. Fifth.-It realizes the peculiar difficulties which surround this problem in the south and the special need of understanding between leaders of the race who live in the south and those who live in the north. It has learned to understand and respect the good faith, methods and ideals of those who are working for the solution of this problem. Sixth.—The conference pledges itself to the inviolable privacy of all its deliberations. These conclusions, however, and the amicable results of all deliberations of the conference are all subjects for discussion in the colored press and elsewhere. Seventh.—The conference feels that mutual understanding would be encouraged if the leaders of the race would meet annually for private and informal discussion under conditions similar to those which have prevailed at this conference.

OPEN CONFESSION, ETC. ‘The southern newspapers are begin- ning to show in cartoons, editorials, and correspondence from Washington, D. C., how very “hard hit” that section of the country has been by the recent great exodus to the North of thou: sands of its Afro-American laborers. Some, like the Memphis (Tenn.) Com- mercial Appeal (daily), ‘have been frank enough to admit that “the South needs every able-bodied Negro that is now South of the line”; that “the Ne- gro is a good track hand, a good man around packing houses, and is useful in certain elementary trades”. Con- tinuing, the Appeal says, and very per- tinently, too, if a little reservedly: “The Negro has been a tremendous factor in the development of agricul- ture and all the commerce of the south. But in the meantime if we are to keep him here and we are to have the best use of his business ca- pacity there is a certain duty that the white man himselt must discharge in his relation to the Negro, ‘The busi- ness of lynching Negroes is bad, and we believe it is declining, but the Worst, thing is that often the wrong Negra is lynched. ‘The Negro should be protected in ail of his legal rights. Further, in some communities somo white people make money at the ex: pense of the Negro’s lack of intelli- genee. Unfair dealing with the Negro is not a custom in the south. It is not the rule, but here and there the taking of enormous profits trom the labor of the Negro is known to exist. It should be so arranged that the Ne- ro in the eity does not have to raise his children in the alleys and in the streets, Liquor in cities has been a great curse to Negroes. Millions of dollars have been made by no-account white people selling no-account liquor to Negroes and thus making a whole Jot vf Negroes no account. Happily this business is being extinguished.” ‘The Macon (Ga.)

That is, everybody but those farmers who have wakened up of mornings recently to find every male Negro over 21 on his place gone—to Cleveland, to Pittsburgh, to Chicago, to Indianapolis.

And while our ‘Very solveney is being sucked out trom underneath we go about our affairs as ‘usual: Our police officers raid pool- ‘rooms for “loafing Negroes,” bring in twelve, keep them in the barracks all night and next. morning find that ten of them have steady, regular jobs, were there merely to spend an hour in the only indoor recreation they have; our county officers heat of a disturbance at, a Negro. resort “and bring in fifty-odd men, women and boys and girls to gpend the night in the jai, to make bdnd at ten per cent, to hire lawyers, to mortgage halt of two months’ wages to get back on thelr Jobs Monday morning—although but a bare half docen could have been guilty of the disorderly conduct. It ‘Was the week following that several ‘Macon employers found good Negroes, ‘men trained to their work, secure and respected in their jobs, valuable as- sets to their white “employers, sud- denly left and. gone to Cleveland, “where they don't arrest fifty for what three of ‘em done.” Here it is—if not “‘the whole story”, certainly enough to enable any person to get a correct line on “why the ex- ‘dus of Negroes to the North in recent months”. Our people, South and North, are indebted to the Appeal and Telegraph and all other.papers, in that section particularly, for these frank and truthful expressions. They will undoubtedly have a good effect where it Is needed most—in the South —and, with the cold of the coming winter season, encourage the return South of thousands of our people wko have come North in recent months. ‘The resull, thus far, of this great immigration? It has lowered the Ne- gro's status in this section of the coun- try, has helped those of out people they have left behind in the South and—is helping very materially to solve the so-called “Negro problem”.

Urged by a Former Member of the Ohio ‘Legislature, a Cleveland Editor—"Justice Demands It.” ‘din expan dentitiie iabcebe Lima, 0. Oct. 10, 1916.—Charles Daniels convicted of an assault on Mrs. Vivian Baber, on rather weak circumstantial evidence, was sen: tenced to three to twenty years in the Ohio Penitentiary, yesterday. His al- leged crime caused the recent riots here., When Sheriff Eley had Daniels and two other Negro prisoners brought before Mrs. Baber for identification she picked out one of them by the name of Cole who had been locked up in the county jail here for three or more months and could not. possibly have assaulted her or any other wou- an. In the face of this, Daniels has been convicted and sentenced to a Jong term in prison. Attorney Elmer MeClain, who was appointed by the local courts to defend Daniels, has re- ceived the following letter, from ¢ Cleveland editor and former membde of the Ohio Legislature trom that city, that is self-explanatory: Cleveland, Oct. 9, 1916. Dear Sir:— I sincerely trust you will at once make a motion for a new trial in the Charles Daniels case. JUSTICE DE. MANDS IT! Then write “The N. A. A.C, B., No. 70 Fifth Ave., New York City,” for whatever help you may need in the effort to secure Daniels the jus: tice every Amerigan citizen is, entitled to in the courts, Harry ©.

The mittee report, favors segregation of its southern Afro-American membership with Afro-American bishops. The other plan favors the election of suffragan bishops under the present canons. Another important matter will be the election of a successor to the Bishop of Liberia, who was president of Liberia, Africa, who died a few months ago. He was the Church's only colored bishop.

"I am and always have been friendly in my feelings to the Colored people. I have expressed it in this city at a meeting held with reference to Dr. Washington. I know the burdens and problems of your people. In what I say as to brotherhood and opportunity denied to none because of race, in that word race I include the Colored American and am mindful of your problems. There are parts of my career I can not bring into politics, but in the position that I have taken to be seen my principles as to equal rights. Americanism is a strong means of oppression; character, intelligence. In intellect, in character, in equality of opportunity there is no, there can be no color line. That is the Americanism for which I stand."—Hon. Charles E. Hughes, to a delegation of Afro-Americans, at Astor Hotel, N. Y. City, on August 2, 1916. "I say to you that I stand, if I stand for anything, for equal and exact justice to all. I stand for the maintenance of the rights of all citizens, regardless of race or color. The one word that I love above all others is the word 'justice.' We want in this country what is right. I am sure you do not wish particular things done because of color. You want what is right and fair, I desire to be公正 and decent, and just treatment as will make you proud of your manhood and womanhood."—Charles E. Hughes in an address at Fisk University, Nashville, Tennessee, Sept. 4, 1916. A. E. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—Some time in 1915, Gov. Frank B. Willis agreed to the appointment of a local Negro as a deputy oil inspector for this county which position he held until January 1 when his resignation caused a vacancy in the oil inspecting job. Meanwhile, two or three aspirants applied for it, among the number being a local saloon-keeper who operated on the main thoroughfare of our people, where our church-users must pass to and fro to their churches, be trained in their chores-out, and others passing in and out. In spite of our vigorous protests (for nearly two months) to Gov. Willis, as ministers of the gospel (representing several thousand Colored church communicants), against the appointment of a saloon-man, recommended largely by the saloon element, the Governor has appointed him and refused to appoint the man we enodged, one whom we thought the best can handle the race in an official capacity. We ask the officers, telegrams and night-letters (telegrams) to Gov. Willis in protests against the appointment of the saloon man and endorsing the other aspirant. The Governor, however, has deliberately and outrageously ignored our protests and endorsements by giving the position to that element, which witht his business (saloon) is doing harm and causing more retrogression of the power of our young manhood in this city, than the actual physical slavery of our parents before the "sitios." We, the ministers and churches stand for race elevation, a virile manhood, worthy citizenship and factors in every community, and for a better manhood and life. The Governor's action in this matter is in direct opposition to all these—and HURTS! What are we to do when these contemptuous indignities are continually heaped upon—appointing salamon to state to the decent grog republicans of this community, thus saying to the people, white and Colored, that SUCH men are the REPRESENTATIVES of the Negroes? We must and will organize and work to defeat any candidate for office, be he democrat or republican, who will so insult us, and Gov. Willis will be made to feel this, politically, if he is a candidate for office in November. Signed, (Rev.) H. Bailey, Pastor, Antioch Baptist Church, President, Cleveland Branch National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS One of the outstanding developments of the last few years is the growth of racial consciousness. The latest Negro Year Book reflects this. Not only are the exploits of the heroes of the race recorded but also the individual wealth of Negroes is described with pride. For example, the rise in the price of oil is said to have boosted the income of Taft, Rector, a young girl of Taft, Okin, to $000 a day. As the descendant of a Creek freedman, she happened to be allotted a piece of land in the oil district. Single taxers would hardly share in the enjoyment of this record. But it has its significance in a cumulative way. Says Monroe N. Work, editor of the volume: "Through purchases and increases in values, property holdings of Negroes of the country increased during the year by probably $30,000,000. It is estimated that on the basis of actual values and including exempted and nontaxable property the total wealth of the Negroes of the United States is about $1,000,000,000. They own 21,000,000 acres of land, or more than 32,000 square miles, an area greater than that of the state of South Carolina." This private accumulation and public emphasis on the power of property is the Negro's answer to the white man's apathy concerning his plight. Rapidly the mere possession of wealth is doing for the Negro what the white man's conscience has failed to do. Racial consciousness is the beginning of racial self-reliance. In an immense variety of ways the Negro is using his own resources to push forward his race, and, too, from many sources he is being aided. Julius Rosenwald, among others, has made interesting gifts to the rural schools. All this activity, the training of the Negro for more and more important services, is bound to have its consequences. On the one hand segregation is increasing—since 1911 13 cities and towns have adopted segregation ordinances—and on the other hand the Negroes are shaped by the schools and other institutions to share in the manifold efforts of the country. Here, in truth, is a genuine conflict of forces. What is the solution? Is it that of the Brazilian statesman who was quoted by Colonel Roosevelt as follows? "You of the United States are keeping the blacks as an entirely separate element, and you are not treating them in a way that fosters their self-respect. They will remain as a menacing element in your civilization, permanent, and perhaps after a while a growing element. With us this tends to disappear, because the blacks themselves tend to disappear and to become absorbed. In a century there will not be any Negroes in Brazil, while you will have 20,000,000 or 30,000,000 of them." Negroes are being absorbed in the United States, despite their hostility to miscegenation. The number of mulattoes steadily increases and the number of blacks decreases, despite the widespread laws forbidding intermarriage between the races. Unless the Negro's attitude toward this absorption changes, the gradual disappearance of a colored race seems to be the prospect in America—Chicago Herald. John Frager came into town and found employment in a pressing club. He washed windows and did errands. Commendation for the progress made by the colored race during the last 50 years in the face of strong race prejudice was bestowed by H. Martin Williams, reading clerk of the house, in an address before the Negro race conference at Mount Carmel Baptist church. Mr. Williams said: "You have faced it like men, and have made your way up in spite of the utmost difficulties." Following the address of Mr. Williams, the conference took the form of a permanent organization with the election of Rev. W. H. Jernagin of Washington as president, and the election of other officers as follows: Rev. J. Milton Waldron and E. P. Cheek of New Jersey, vice president; W. M. Alexander of Baltimore, secretary; S. L. Carruthers, treasurer; W. A. Taylor, corresponding secretary, and W. D. Norman, chairman of the executive committee. The organization, on the question of indorsing the Republican nominee for president, voted to appoint a committee of nine to wait upon Mr. Hughes and ascertain his views and purposes in regard to the colored race.

If a direct steamer service was installed between San Francisco and Apia, Australian competition would be almost eliminated. Gold from lode mines in the Willow Creek district, Alaska, in 1915 was vaulted at $250,000. Government observations prove that there is still an enormous amount of gold in this same vicinity. Specimens of almost every precious mineral have been found in Spitzbergen, but there are no signs, according to geologists, that precious minerals exist in paying quantities.

So he had a table and an iron, and was drawing a wage of $1 a day. For all that he was just a pressing club Negro, Clement Richardson writes in the Southern Workman. Nobody thought of him as anything else. In a few years the owner of the business, a white man, died. Frazer bought the business. As colored folk came in to bring and take back clothes, they inquired for a barber shop. Frazer fitted up a chair, bought a pair of clippers, and advertised for clients; that is, he at first cut hair for nothing. Then, as he mastered the art, he charged five cents, then ten cents, and so on till he reached the standard price of 25 cents. Meantime he had bought a farm and a horse. He said: "Till take this horse and land and make it pay for another place." Scarcely lend he embarked on this proposition when a few choice acres of land on the west side of Auburn were put up for sale. Strangely enough, it was the land of Frazer's father's master. Frazer bought it. He put up a three-story building. He has abandoned the pressing club, but sells clothing. He still runs a barber shop in the rear of the store. His second floor is an assembly room for lodges and amusements. On the third floor he has an undertaking establishment. A few paces from the store he has built a home. A little further on he has put up a hotel cottage, a rare place in the South, with clean, airy rooms, and up-to-date cooking and service. Negro problems are to be considered as a part of the course in sociology at Howard university this year. Prof. Kelly Miller is to teach the first semester, and Dr. R. E. Parks, professional lecturer in sociology of Chicago university, is to teach the second semester of the subject. In order that the course may be available for city school teachers and others interested the time has been set for three o'clock Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays. The course is to embrace such topics as growth, distribution and tendency of Negro population, segregation, occupation, crime, vital statistics, education, religious and benevolent organizations, and also the discussion of remedial agencies and the general progress of the race. The advisability of naming colored bishops in the Protestant Episcopal church will be discussed at the general convention in St. Louis this month. A special commission of bishops, clergymen and hymen, appointed at the 1913 convention to investigate the question, has completed its reports, one a majority favoring the naming of colored bishops, the other a minority report opposing the proposal. The majority report, which includes the signature of the chairman, and bishops of North Carolina, Texas and Mississippi and the lay members from Virginia and Rhode Island recommends grouping the colored members of the church in the southern dioceses into one or more missionary districts over which colored bishops would be placed. The minority report is signed by the bishops of South Carolina and Georgia, Reverend Doctor Stires of New York and Judge Joseph Packard of Baltimore, who favor election of suffragan bishops for this work. effective committee opposed the appointment of the committee and urged the immediate indorsement of Mr. Hurley. President Jermagin, in speaking of the conditions among the colored race, said that in the last six months more than 500,000 persons had left the South for New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and northwestern states to take the places of foreign laborers who have returned to their respective countries. He asserted the employers are more than satisfied with them as laborers and are willing to employ 1,000,000 more. He said the leaders of the colored race feel that there are too many of their race in the South yet, and that every effort would be made to secure the migration of the surplus to northern and western states.

There was an increased demand for antimony during the past year, and ore to the value of $74,000 was mined and shipped from Alaska. THREE PIECE SETS HAT, SCARF AND MUFF THAT MATCH ARE MUCH IN FAVOR. One of Purple Velvet and Ermine and Another of Black Velvet and Sapphire Blue Taffetta Are Shown in Sketch. Hat, scarf and muff or bag that match are quite approved by dance fashion for the coming season, and two very charming sets are shown in the sketch. The upper one employs purple velvet and ermine in its construction. The little touque of velvet is banded in ermine and an ornament in oriental colorings centers the front. The scarf may be worn open, as illustrated, or it may be draped high about the throat. A narrow band of ermine borders the scarf on either side and an ermine-covered button of generous size serves to conceal the scarf's fastening. The small round muff is edged with ermine. Color of velvet used and type of fur may be varied to suit the individual taste. Chinchilla squirrel and silver rabbit are two effective furs that might be attractively combined with velvet in the development of a three-piece set similar to the one sketched. In the lower set, consisting of sports hat, scarf and bag, black velvet and Smart Three-Piece Sets That May Be Made at Home. sapphire blue taffeta are combined. An effective method would be to cord the taffeta, thereby making it heavier and richer looking. The hat is turned up at one side and caught with a bright ornament. Novelty dress accessories may be developed at comparatively small actual expense if patience and some cleverness at designing are possessed, and with the aid of these little odds and ends a very plain gown or suit becomes quite distinguished. French women are notably well dressed, and in large measure they accomplish this result not so much by the richness and variety of their costumes as by the individuality and smartness of their accessories. Charming hat shapes may be bought all ready to be covered and trimmed, and either of the sets illustrated could be perfected without a great outlay of either time or money. One-Piece Frocks Popular. We are inundated with one-piece frocks made of sutah, gabardine, velours and velvet. Chiffon plays a larger part than goggette crepe, and embroidery is spread over the surface of the frocks, but does not touch the tailored suits. The best choice of material in these is velours. The best style at the present moment is the moderately long and wide skirt arranged to hang limply against the body, and a coat that is reminiscent of the days when men dressed in a more conspicuous manner than they now—a coat that is tightly buttoned in at the waist, has a full peplum cut on an even line halfway between knees and waist without stint of fullness in its folds, and wide revers and collars that again suggest the directoire. With these are worn high, draped collars with full frills in front. Those who seek something new in every form Sequins in Trimmings. Sequins appear in bands of the elaborate trimming in keeping with the elaboration of this season's styles and materials. They are beautiful and effective in mother of pearl iridescent, in bands set solidly with sequins or the sequins forming patterns on a white net. They also appear in all the new colors. There are bands showing designs in different tones of the wine red, which is one of the new shades; there are the bright blues, sometimes combined with a line of black sequins which strengthens the effect. There are the trimmings in black sequins, solid straight bands, or set solidly in designs giving a fancy edge. There is always the gold and silver embroidery on net in many widths and designs. To Eliminate Housework. To make the house beautiful and livable and at the same time easy to care for, try what elimination and organization will do.

Novel Use for Old Bangle. Most of us possess an old bangle, and our sketch shows a novel way in which it may be utilized in making it do duty as a safety pin holder. House pins and brooches can also be fastened upon it in the way illustrated. All that has to be *done* is to tie a pret- Pretty Safety Pin Holder. tly colored piece of ribbon upon one side of the bangle and arrange, it in a long loop that can be slipped over the post of the looking glass. Should one be available, an old bracelet with a clasp can be used in the same manner, and will be found even more handy than a bangle, as the bracelet can be unfastened and pins and brooches easily slipped upon it, and also it will form a very safe holder for rings, from which they cannot fall off and get lost. Fashion's Whims. Fine metallic thread embroidery is featured in many of the new French model frocks. In underwear the empire waistline is noticeable this autumn. Another noticeable detail of autumn lingerie is the number of fine pin tucks which appear. Much lace is used to trim Italian silk underwear. Ostrich feather for trimming finds a place in autumn fashions. Clipped ostrich feather fans are shown in the smart shops and they will probably be much used with the new evening frocks. For the Stout Young Lady. It would appear that Dame Fashion devotes more than enough time to the styles for the slim and well-rounded young lady and gives scant time and attention to her stouter slater, who finds it hard to dress becomingly and in the latest style without accentuating her stoutness. This is one of the many new fall fashions to which much care has been given. It is of plaid taf- Kewfirst Matured & Retired. feta overskirt with plain taffeta bodys sleeves and underskirt. It possesses very effective sleeve gatherings, which are trimmed with buttons. The collar is of taffeta finished with jet ornaments. plty, but it will bend to the will as readily as the sitting room. Keep in mind just two things—with good outl line a bedroom is furnished once in a lifetime. Then remember color. It is astonishing what can be done in the most economical fashion in the world with color in the bedroom. One does not need a single bit of white from start to finish except in sheets, pillow cases and towels. Plunge into color for the window draperies, for the outside spread for the bed and for the rugs. Economy in Skirts. The jersey skil skirts common are rather expensive, whether bought in the shops or made at home, but the same effect may be had in charmeuse for a great deal less. A lovely tub skirt of charmeuse can be made at home for $4, and for $1 more it can have some fancy box plats. It is equally important to note that white skirts are a great saving of time where the washing is done at home. These can be put into the boiler with the other white clothes. USING LEFT-OVERS THE CAN BE UTILIZED TO AD VANTAGE AND MEAN ECONOMY. How to Keep Them If They Are Not To Be Used the Same Day—Some Recipes for Use of Left Over Of all the left-over remnants of food from the kitchen bread is the most common, perhaps, and many pieces are daily thrown away which a little thought would turn to excellent use. If the left-over pieces are not utilized the same day, an excellent plan is to wrap them in pieces of waxed paper and store them in a stone jar. They will keep well for a week in this way. Dried Crumbs for Stuffing and Meat Frying—Put the crusts and small pieces in a baking pan and dry in the oven without burning. They may then be put through the food chopper and stored in clean mason jars until wanted. They may be used as a basis for meat croquettes, poultry stuffing and other things. French toast must be made from the whole slices of left-over bread. It is an excellent luncheon pick-up dish. Beat an egg and add a little milk. Dip the slices of bread in this and fry a nice brown in hot drippings. Serve with butter jelly or marmalade. Bread Custard Pudding—Cut the bread in dainty shapes and butter liberally. Make a plain custard of eggs, milk and sugar. Put in baking dish and float the buttered bread on top. Sprinkle with grated nutmeg and bake in a quick oven until brown. This is excellent. To make croutons for the various soups so much relished in summer, cut the bread in cubes and fry in butter or dripping just before serving with the soup. Add five or six to each plate of soup. These are delicious with almost any soup. Bread Jelly for Invalids—Scald the stale bread freed from crusts. Mush to a paste until of mushlike consistency. Add a little sugar and flavoring, mold, chill and serve with cream. Sterilized bread crumbs are especially valuable for the young children in the household. A jar should be kept filled with these. They may be heated when wanted and sprinkled in soft eggs, soups, milk, fruit juices and, indeed, anything eaten, by very young children where fresh bread is often positively dangerous. Dried bread is also valuable for mixing with various other foods for feeding the household pets. MANY WAYS OF USING CIDER There Is No Need of Consigning it to the Vinegar Barrel Just Because It is Getting “Hard.” When your sweet elder begins to get “hard” don’t consign it to the vinegar barrel, but try using it in the following ways: To bake apples or pears, use eider instead of water to cover half the fruit. Sweeten with brown sugar instead of white, add a few cloves, a stick of cinnamon, a pinch of ground ginger, and the result will be a dish of deliciously flavored fruit covered with a rich, spicy lot of juice. Or use eider as the foundation of a gelatin or minute taplae dessert in place of water. Sweeten to taste, add a bit of lemon juice, and when beginning to set add some chopped dates and English walnuts. Or it can be served perfectly plain and rather tart with the meat course. It seems to fit right in with a tur- key or chicken dinner, just as much as so cranberry jelly, and is a de- lightful change. English Pudding. One-half cupful chopped salt pork Fill cup with boiling water, let stand a few minutes to dissolve, two-thirds cupful molasses, finish filling cup with sour milk, one teaspoonful each of soda, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, one cupful chopped raisins, three and one-half or four cupfuls flour. Steam two hours. Sauce for Pudding—One cupful sugar, two cupfuls boiling water, one half teaspoonful each of salt and nutmeg. Thicken with two teaspoonfuls flour. Remove from stove, add a tablepoonful of good sharp vinegar and piece of butter. Homemade Soap Homemade hard soap that you know is sweet and clean is easily made, costs but a few cents and saves several dollars' worth of the purchased article. Put into a crook one can of tye, pour on it a quart of water. Let cool. Add a half cupful of borax in water to dissolve, mix together a half cupful each of ammonia and kerosene. Have five pounds of clean grease warmed in a granite pan, pour in the cold lye, then the ammonia and oil and the borax, stirring with a clean stick until all is well blended. Pour into a strong box and in 24 hours cut in bars. Cherry Core Half dozen apples, half pint water, one cupfled canned cherries, one cupfled sugar, six candied cherries. Pare the apples and remove the cores; put into a deep pan with sugar and water cover tightly and boil until the apples are tender. Turn often, as the sirup will not cover the fruit. Put each apple into an individual serving dish about the edges place the jelly formed by the sirup, and let cool. Fill the center of each apple with cherries and serve with whipped cream topped with a candied cherry. Sour Milk Spice Cake This calls for a cupful of sugar and a half a cupful of butter creamed together. To this should be added a beaten egg, one teaspoonful of each of the following: Cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, ground cloves and vanilla. Add the cup of sour milk or cream and a teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little cold water. Finally add two cupfuls of flour and a cupful of raisins tossed in a little of the flour. A little citron may be added if desired, though this is not necessary—New York Sun. 1 ECONOMIZE DIGESTION The Eating of Vegetables Without Mastication Is Productive of Gastric Rebellion. Indigestion is often attributed to hasty eating, and people are reproved and rightly so, for bolting their food; but it is interesting to observe that while the bolting of meat is always severely censured, one never bears any blame attached to those who swallow fruit by the mouthful, and devour uncooked vegetables without any attempt at mastication. Nevertheless, it is the hasty swallower of vegetable fiber who is really the inciter of gastric rebellion. Vegetables are, at all times, very imperfect digested by the stomach, and require their tough fibers to be thoroughly broken up by the teeth if they are to be dissolved even in the bowel. There is a well-known saying which avers that digestion waits upon appetite, and there is no doubt that all of the helps to digestion a keen desire for food is the most powerful and important. But appetite itself often depends upon conditions which are independent of the body's absolute necessities. Thus the aspect of the food, its smell, taste and even the manner in which it is served, all help either to stimulate a desire for it, or to induce a sense of aversion, while the environment of the diner often exercises important influence, beneficial or otherwise. Brain work of any kind interferes with the rapid digestion of food, and even the habit of reading during meal times, practiced by so many, is conductive neither to appetite nor digestion. A well-lighted room, music and trivialous conversation will often permit a chronic dyspeptic to enjoy without remorse the pleasures of the table, while a depressing atmosphere, uncongenial company and unappetizing dishes may induce a fit of indigestion in the most healthy individual.—Food and Cookery. COOKING UTENSILS OF GLASS Baking Dishes Made of New Material Have Been Found Very Satisfactory and Almost Unbreakable. A new material now on the market for cooking utensils is glass. A great variety of cooking dishes are made, but the baking dishes or casseroles, would probably appeal most to the home-keeper. No silver or copper container is required for the casserole when put on the table and hence they are comparatively inexpensive. A great variety of dishes have been cooked in the glass casserole with splendid results. The material is cooked uniformly throughout the dish, due to the conductivity of glass and the results have been just as good with a souffle as with a meat pie. The oven can be better regulated since one can see the material cooking in the dish—i. e. one can see whether it is cooking too fast or too low. The utensils are attractive and seem to be almost unbreakable. The casserole has proved to be the most satisfactory baking dish we have ever used.—Magdalene Hahn, Colorado Agricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo. Pepper Meat Cups. Take as many large peppers as you need, either green or red, but of the sweet variety, and as round as you can get them. Cut off the tops, take out the seeds, pour boiling water over them and cook gently for five minutes. Drain well, place in a baking dish and fill with a mixture made according to these directions: Take enough of the white meat of chicken—other meats will do if you have no cooked chicken on hand—fill a cup with the meat chopped fine, one and a half cupfuls of bread crumbs moistened with a little hat water to swell them; also a large tomato peeled and chopped, with two teaspoonfuls of grated or chopped onion, an ounce of butter, a level tablespoonful of chopped parsley, half a teaspoonful of salt, a dash of red pepper and a raw egg well bent. Pour a little stock or hot water around the peppers and a very little over each one and bake 25 minutes—New York Sun. Brine for Pickles It is the custom with vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers to soak them in brine before putting them through the regular pickling process. The brine is probably used because it withdraws moisture from the tissue of the vegetable and makes it possible to obtain a firmer result, renders a milder flavor, gives the desired salt taste, and adds to the keeping quality of the pickles. The strength of the brine required depends on the length of time the vegetable to be pickled is to remain in the brine. Too strong a brine softens and spoils the vegetable. The proportions should be: To one quart of water add one-third to one-half cupful salt. The brine should be strong enough to float a fresh egg. Chocolate Hearts Two ounces of butter, two ounces of cornstarch, two ounces of grated chocolate, a tablespoonful of milk, two eggs, one-quarter tablespoonful of baking powder, three ounces of powdered sugar. Cream the butter and sugar together, beat in the eggs, next and the chocolate, cornstarch, baking powder and sufficient milk to make a thick batter (rather over a tablespoonful may be required). Have ready 12 little heart-shaped tins well greased. Divide the mixture between them and bake for half an hour in a moderate oven.
