Address Of Dr. E. G. Hirsch,
his Visit to Tuskegee, wi
The eloquent address of Dr. E.
G. Hirsch, who was a member of
the Rosenwald party that recently
visited Tuskegee Institute.
Dr. Hirsch's address follows:—
"Dr. Washington, Ladies and
Gentlemen."
"Like Mr. Rosenwald, I am under obligations to you. Our visit here has been a veritable inspiration. The great German poet, Goethe, remarked somewhere that what you desire in your younger days, you generally attain only when old age is upon you. I have desired to see your institution from the very day I heard of its existence. In the meantime I have grown old and what I desired in the younger days has come to me in its rich fulness here when I am standing at the threshold of my life's evening tide. Therefore, I am personally under more obligations to you. You are solving a problem. Most of those in your race believe that you are solving a problem, that you are solving a problem, that of your race alone and for your alone. A narrow view of this to take! You are solving a problem of American life for all of us, and who knows but that you are solving it for the world at the same time?
"We have often in our churches read the opening chaper of Genesis, and I dare say, if I may judge by the general attitude mentally and morally of the world, we have failed to understand its essential message. That opening chapter tells us that God made man in his image and we have not understood what that old Hebrew story may have intended when it placed upon men the crown of likeness with the great creator of the world. The Greeks had stories about the gods, but none of the Greek gods were ever pictured as working. They drank ambrosia, quaffed nectar; engaged in all sorts of intrigues and committed acts that the better civilization of later years refuses to mention in a society like this. That was the occupation of the Greek gods and many of our Americans today are much like the Greeks. Their ideal of life is to drink and not always ambrosia at that, to quaff, not always nectar, to engage in all sorts of intrigues, and because they cannot carry on that life without having money, they have ceased to be monotheists, believers in one God, and have be-
---
come moneytheists. That is, they deify money and they do not know what the use of money is, once in a while, however a man arises who is able to teach the world what you can do with money; that it is not given to men for the purpose of drinking nectar and quaffing ambrosia, but that it is given as a trust to an individual that through it he might bring hope and light to his fellow men groping upward and onward along the path of life.
"The Hebrew civilization begins with the story of God as a worker. He creates a conception that no other civilization ever advanced God worked, and when he created man in his image he meant that man should work as God had worked. The Bible's proclamation is the sanctity of human labor is a curse. It is the expression of man's likeness to God. God worked and he placed man on earth to work as God had worked before him, and the sanctity of work is gift, the sacred benediction with which this noble institution anoints your head. You came here to be consecrated priests in the temple of work and go out from here into the world as messengers of this gospel of religion; the gospel that flamed forth from Sinia and found sweeter and newer consecration on the lips of another son of Palestine, the gospel of labor. Have you ever thought of it—that great Son of Palestine was a carpenter's son. He did not have a classical education but He learned the lesson of life in His father's carpenter shop; He did not go to academies, but He heard His divine father's call. Whatever message He had, He clothed it in the phaseology, not of the counting-room, and not of the drawing-room but into the impressive vocabulary of the farmer and the artisan. In practising and learning to practice the religion of labor, you become Christianized, in the spirit of the Great Teacher, and Judiazed, in the spirit of the great Jewish prophets. As perhaps no other group of young women and young men in this our country, you have the opportunity to become consecrated, to be uplifted and to be empowered.
"Culture, yes, culture, can come from the anvil and the hoe, from the shoe-maker's bench, more potent than it ever came from the twaddle of Cicero and the singing

even of the blind bard of Greece. To despise the practical things is to despise God's work. God made the world so. We have to work in the world, and to call that which is related to work beneath the notice or unworthy of the sympathy of cultured men and women is to utter blasphemy.
"Culture, yes, what does culture mean? First, it means the larger vision and can you not have that larger vision when you create something? Every working man and woman creates. Culture means joy in life. What greater joy can there be than the joy of creating? The world has lost that joy. The slavery of the factory, the din and tumult and strife of the city have crushed out all true joy in this our age.
"A French writer recently said that the only one who was still true to the great mission and who understood the great variety of the gospel of joy in life was the artist. He created and found joy in his creation. This French writer should have said the artisan. The man who creates has knowledge, deep knowledge of God's joy in life.
"The third element of culture is worthiness. He who creates something that is worth while, gains culture. Every stroke of the hammer intended to bring forth something new is a declaration of man's worthiness. He who is conscious of creation can never become an unworthy, an immoral or degraded being on earth.
"Men have tried in recent years to install the moral spirit in the public schools. They are even now debating and puzzling how they can teach the children the laws of righteousness. Take them into the work shop; there they will learn them. Unless you are true to your work, your work rises to curse you, for the anvil's song is a song of righteousness and the sigh of the saw, as it goes through the wood, is a protest against man's untruthfulness.
"The final element of culture is sympathy. That ancient Greek culture which they made so much of in the old-fashioned colleges did not lead men to sympathize with one another, and from the Greeks we learn this awful conceit that one or the other is better than his brother or sister on account of some accident in his personal appearance. The old culture did not unite but divided humanity. The new culture of the work shop has in it the magic to bring men together. In the consecration of common work you are learning that you help yourselves by helping others. Every article produced by you is not merely of usefulness to you, but is of usefulness to me.
"You are being led here into the sanctuary of this new religion of work. This new religion of conse-

crated, creative work ought to fill your hearts with thankfulness. I congratulate you on the opportunities that are yours. Your opportunities are larger than those that have come to the white children of many of the Northern cities and to the black children of many a Northern University town. Cease then complaining. You have nothing to complain of. Go your way proudly in the consciousness of your worth. Strive for worthiness and let those who will, out of the emptiness of their conceit, believes that they stand higher than you; learn from your life how poor is their judgment, how foolish their prejudice.
"I thank you for what you have taught me, for what we have learned from that one man who in these days of short-sightedness has had the vision. Without vision, the people parish. Be glad that he came among you, this great man of vision—your Moses indeed, with this difference; that while the old Moses died in the wilderness; he goes with you across the Jordan into the promised land."—The Student.

Chicago, Nov. 13.—Hernando De Soto Money, ex-Senator from Mississippi, one of the four members of the national monetary committee, went to the dinner given Saturday night by the Western Economic society in the Auditorium hotel, but hurried from the speaker's table a few minutes after the guests were seated. Mr. Money's hurried departure caused much comment. One was that when he saw a Negro sitting directly in front of him with the diners he grew angry and demanded to know why the Negro was sitting with white persons. He left the hall when told that the man was a guest of the society. Mr. Money, when seen in his room an hour later, said that he had left the dinner because he was troubled with neuralgia. "It is rumored that you went because of the presence of the Negro?" was suggested. "I refuse to be cross-examined on that Topic," was the Senator's reply.
The first colored woman in the United States to give $1,000 to a colored Young Men's Christian Association building campaign is Mrs. C. J. Walker, 640 N. West street, Indianapolis, Ind., whose gift of that amount was announced at the mass meeting of colored people in the K. of P. Hall, Sunday afternoon. Mrs. Walker is not only the first colored woman in the country to contribute that amount to the association, but is the fifth colored person to give $1,000. Her contribution to the campaign in Indianapolis is the largest yet obtained among the colored people here. "The Young Men's Christian Association is one of the greatest institutions there is," said Mrs. Walker. "I am very glad to help the association, and I am much interested in its work. I certainly hope that it gets the new building, and I think every colored person ought to contribute to the campaign. "If the association can save our boys," she added, "our girls will be saved, and that's what I am interested in. Some day I would like to see a colored girls' association started."—The Freeman.

BOSTON MEMORIAL TO HARLAN PROJECTED BY BOSTON LITERARY
BOSTON MEMORIAL TO HARLAN PROJECTED BY BOSTON LITERARY
RESOLUTIONS IN HONOR OF THE GREATEST JUSTICE AND THE BEST FRIEND OF THE COLOR-ED RACE ADOPTED—REV. J. D. CORROTHERS PLEASE LARGE AUDIENCES WITH SPECIMENS OF HIS OWN POETRY AND HUMOROUS VERSES.
Boston, Mass.—A meeting of the Boston Literary and Historical association was held in St. Mark's Congregational church last night, at which resolutions of sympathy on the death of Justice John M. Harlan of the United States Supreme court were adopted, copies of which will be sent to the family. The association voted to hold a meeting in commemoration of Justice Harlan in co-operation with the New England Suffrage league and the National Independent Political league.
Rev. J. D. Corrothers of Haverhill read poems by Paul Laurence Dunbar and verses of his own composition, and there were solos by William H. Reed and Dr. J. H. Thompson.
The Resolutions Adopted.
"The Boston Literary and Historical association, seeing in the late Justice John Marshall Harlan the greatest jurist in the history of the United States since his illustrious namesake, Chief Justice John Marshall, and the greatest friend of freedom and equality of citizenship under the constitution ever on the Supreme court, hereby records its grief at the death of a noble champion of the rights of colored Americans and sends its heartfelt sympathy to the family of this defender of the republic, sharing their grief in this death which is an irreparable loss to a race of ten millions, who are proscribed and denied political freedom, because of color."
The association voted to arrange a public memorial meeting to Justice Harlan, with the co-operation of the New England Suffrage league and the National Independent Political league. Rev. Corruthers' Readings. The meeting at St. Mark's church, 1042 Tremont street, was opened by President Trotter with prayer by the Chaplain, Wm. D. Johnson, Miss Hattie V. Manley, secretary, read the minutes, which were adopted. A note of appreciation for the late Justice Harlan was adopted, and a motion carried for a public memorial meeting by all libraries and the suffrage societies, etc. Several names were proposed for membership.
Rev. Corrothers said he had not agreed to read Dunbar, but his own poems and prose. He read a little of Dunbar's and closed with his own poem on Dunbar, to be published in part by the Century magazine. His poems were liberally applauded and his humorous writings kept the audience in convulsions of laughter. He made one of the most interesting nights ever held by any literary in Boston. A large audience was out to hear the gifted writer and poet. Mr. W. N. Reed sang as never before and was enced. His beautiful paritone voice caused regret that he follows Mr. Hodges in soon leaving Boston. Dr. J. H. Thompson's solo so pleased the audience he was greatly applauded and given an encore.
PROFESSOR DUBOIS TALKS OF THE RECENT RACE CONGRESS
New York.—Dr. W. E. B. Dubois delivered a most interesting lecture at St. Mary's Lyceum on the Race congress, which was recently held in London. The lecture possibly contained nothing which has not already been published in various publications, yet it was extremely interesting and not the least bit monotonous. As a rule, Doctor Dubois seldom makes his audience laugh. On this occasion, however, he produced laughter when he said that at one time scientists were wont to acclaim long heads a sign of highest civilization, such as Germans, etc., but when they found that the Zulus had the same kind of heads they were at sea again. The doctor says it is not so much a race problem as it is a social problem. The problem in Africa is simply one of labor and wages. In Morocco, capitalists against labor. The consensus of opinion of the leading scientists was that it is impossible to draw the line between races. The color of the skin is simply a matter of climate. In describing the suffragists parade which was 40,000 strong, eight miles long, the doctor took occasion to say that the greatest question that the country has to deal with today is "What are we going to do with the women?" The doctor's highest praise for all who took part in the congress, saying there was all harmony. The next meeting will be held in America.
HE HAD A DIFFERENT RULE.
J. Pitt Hardacre has recently been touring the country with East Lynne.
"Funny things happen to us actors sometimes," said Mr. Hardacres. "This is what occurred to my friend, Tim last week:
"A society belle from Bayswater went into the water at Blackport, wearing one of those fashionable transformations or wings. A big wave went up over her, and when she came up the transformation was floating out to sea. She turned and ran to Tim.
"'Oh, save my hair!' she yelled. Save my hair!
"'Pardon me, lady,' says Tim. 'I'm a life saver, not a hair restorer.'"—Human Life.

COMING EVENTS.
November 27-29—Colorado Teachers'
Association—Denver.
Jan. 16-20—Seventh Annual National
Western Stock Show, Denver.
Big Apple Show Success.
Denver.— Thousands of people arrived in town from all parts of Colorado. Five thousand three hundred people cheered the athletic program in the Auditorium, and 8,500 people inspected the big Apple Show the first day. Bands from a dozen Colorado towns paraded the streets.
Whatever doubts that the Apple Show people had of the success of the show and the carnival were dissipated by the crowds the opening day; the day that is usually characterized by small crowds; the day the people ignore while "the show is getting finished," but this proved the one exception in the rule, and therefore the Apple Show men retired late the first night, tired but happy.
Bar Association Brings Suit.
Denver.—The State Bar Association has brought suit in the State Supreme Court against the Court of Appeals created by the last Legislature and appointed by Governor Shafroth, to force the members of that court to show why they claim the right to render opinions on cases that wer originally appealed to the State Supreme Court. The law under which the Court of Appears was created seeks to transfer certain cases from the Supreme Court to the Court of Appeals. The same law provides for the appointment of five judges who shall constitute the Court of Appeals. In this provision was a second proviso to the effect that the judges should be confirmed by the Senate.
Sugar Beet Growers Meet.
Chicago.—A meeting of beet sugar growers and refiners which is expected to result in the formation of a permanent organization to represent the industry was held here. Representatives from Michigan, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Idaho, Montana, California, Iowa and Minnesota were in the city. An annual production of 500,000 tons of beet sugar is represented. According to a statement issued at a preliminary meeting the growers were in convention to "consider matters of interest to the industry and to meet the attacks being made upon it by certain importers and refiners of cane sugar, who are demanding the removal of the duty on sugar." A permanent organization for publicity concerning beet sugar was one of the objects of the meeting.
New Ruling on Relinquishments.
New Ruling on Relinquishments.
Washington.—Settlers on the government irrigation projects who find they have taken more land than they are able to meet the various charges on, may relinquish part of it and have the payments already made credited to the charges against the retained land, according to a decision by Secretary Fisher. The settler may relinquish a second tract if he still finds himself overburdened, but the minimum area he may hold is ten acres. Experience has shown, it was pointed out, that the forty and eighty-acre units were in many cases too large for cultivation by a man of moderate means. The secretary's purpose is to promote the intensive cultivation of land for which the government has furnished a water supply and to enable deserving settlers to retain a part of their present holdings which otherwise might be lost through cancellation for non-payment of charges.
---
Improvements for Grand Junction.
Grand Junction.—The next four years is to be the greatest consecutive period in the history of Grand Junction. Within that period, if present plans mature, work will have been started on public and semi-public works to cost over $3,000,000 in the city and the Grand Valley.
This includes construction of the $250,000 federal building, the final appropriation for which will be made at the coming session of Congress, and upon which work should be started early next summer, the starting of construction upon either a joint county and city building or a new court house and city hall, both badly needed, the building of the Main street bridge, completion of the new high school building with needed additional wings, construction of the Palisade & Clifton extension of the Interurban railroad, extension of the paving on Main to Thirteenth street, starting of work on the Grand and on the Colorado, a new public library building and construction of the High Line canal.
Big Concern Incorporates.
Pueblo.-Having filed articles of incorporation, the Arkansas Valley Railway, Light & Power Company promoters are ready for extensive operations that will cover the entire central and southern part of the state eventually. The company is financed largely by and made possible through the energy of Byllesby & Co. of Chicago, which concern recently made its debut in Colorado by purchasing the Pueblo Traction company's interests.

Felix Griego died in convulsions at Trinidad as the result of a kick received in a saloon. An hour after his death Leo Dolce, proprietor of the saloon, was placed in jail.
Ten million dollars will be left in Colorado annually by automobile tourists, if the State Highway Commission's plans for a great state highway from the eastern to the western part of the state are realized. The Gunnison County Commissioners have just concluded the work of levying the 1911 assessment. It is 5 mills higher than in 1910 and was raised principally for the purpose of making the annual payment on old bonded indebtedness. The Methodist Episcopal church, during the coming year, will expend $613,850 for the purpose of home missions and church extension. This was decided finally and irrevocably at a session of the general committee of home missions and church extension held at Trinity church in Denver.
In Fremont county there are 30,000 acres of irrigated agricultural lands and nearly 10,000 acres of improved fruit lands. In addition to these there are 130,000 acres of grazing lands, 4,000 acres of natural hay lands, 20,000 acres of coal lands, 6,000 acres of oil lands, 3,000 acres of stone and fire clay lands and 2,900 acres of mining claims.

Mr. William Sunday, familiarly called "Billy," the evangelist, who used to be a popular baseball player before he went in for saving the souls of sinners from themselves, or striving to do so, has precipitated upon a stupid situation a nation-wide discussion of the cost of saving a soul in the large cities. The subject is a palpitating one, the heart-beats of which can be heard from farthest northwoods to farthest southglades. The millionaire hears it as he listens to the stock ticker and the washerwoman hears it as she listens to the sighing of the clothes wringer. He is a benefactor who springs a palpitating subject into a stupid situation; Mr. William Sunday is, therefore, a benefactor, and has placed the stupid situation, which is grateful, under obligation to him. Every sinner has a soul to save, and a very large and influential body of people have dedicated themselves to the work of saving it; and, too, without the desire or request of the sinner that the dedication should be made in his behalf; then as long as mankind is divided into two classes, the saints and the sinners, the former, who consider themselves as the salt of the earth, will strive to save the latter, whom they consider the enemies of themselves and of society. The sinners have no such compact, worldwide organization as the saints, therefore we do not know, as we have never had a pronouncement, what the sinners consider themselves as, or what they honestly think of the saints. Well, then, Mr. Sunday has published his findings of the cost of saving souls in a pamphlet. Cost per soul: Atlanta, $75; New Orleans, $78; Chicago, $305; Boston, $450; New York, $545; Indianapolis, $620. Who would have thought it! If we had been asked in which of the six cities we thought it would cost most to save a soul we should have stuck our stub pen into Atlanta, when, behold, it heads the list for cheapness! It is one of those surprises that stagger belief. And Puritan Boston, with tougher souls than Chicago, and Indianapolis, with tougher ones than New York! How Philadelphia escaped the evangelist statistician is not explained. And we can imagine the sinners of Brooklyn and Jersey City kicking themselves because they were not appraised. Mr. Sunday does not say so, but we take it for granted that he enumerated the black sinners along with the white sinners, as we are sure he must be too good a saint to have made any distinction between them, in so important an enumeration, "on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."—New York Age.
Get the right view of life. Riches, fame and power are all good in their places—but remember that out of their places they are all very, very bad, and are, indeed, real curses. The true work for which mankind was intended is, to be of genuine service, and by this service not only to make others happier and better off, but likewise to benefit the one who serves for the common good, and make him or her superlatively happy.
A similar truth is admirably expressed in the following paragraph which was headed "Real Riches:"
"Who is the richest man in the world? asks an exchange, and begins measuring millions against millions. All wrong. The richest man in the world is the one that gets the greatest amount of happiness out of what he has, whatever it is. It is an old truth, but it was never truer than it is today."—Pueblo (Colo.) Chieftain.
During the Cuban war, the late N. B. Broward, at that time senator from Florida, operated a fillbustering vessel known as the Three Friends. Some weeks ago some one was congratulating him on account of the bravery displayed by him and his men during the many expeditions they made. In reply Senator Broward said: "Yes; they were brave men, but don't forget that nigger deckhand. I have forgotten his name, but he was just as brave as any of the rest of us." In the foregoing we glimpse the cause of history's silence regarding the negro. He is not in the habit of "recommendin' himself" very highly and vociferously, the people with whom he plays his part, forget his name, forget that he ever done anything and when they write history the silence regarding his deeds is convincing proof that "he wasn't there." The senator's confession does credit to all concerned.
Hooker T. Washington besides being the world's greatest industrial educator is a Missionary Baptist and black Republican. Of these three things he is never in the mist; upon these crafts he flies no doubtful flag. This much cannot be said of his traducers. He does not blow hot and cold on the same subject. The climate and weather do not affect his mind. He is steadfast. This makes him a shining example.—Dallas Express.
Many a farmer who is in funds now is going strong in the matter of spending, and will probably have to buy his Santa Claus on credit, and a month later will be begging some credit merchant for the privilege of buying his goods on time at about 300 per cent. profit.—Dallas Express
Lots of good advice is to be picked up from time to time in the daily newspapers. Most of it is dropped in dribbles from mouths of men who have succeeded in life, and who want others to do so. Any one, for example, who would keep a scrap book of the newspaper sayings of Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, James J. Hill Cardinal John Gibbons and Booker T. Washington would soon have as wise a collection as "Poor Richard's Sayings." But do people really care for good advice? Do not people really think they are wise enough, without instruction in their own conceit? The other day when Mr. Rockefeller was leaving his Cleveland home for the winter, he said to a reporter: "I believe in sticking to one thing—don't change." The young man who works to make his fortune must pick out one thing and stick to it." Could any advice be more helpful than that? Young negroes, especially those just out of schools, could study this advice to great advantage. Most young people are easily discouraged in any adventure in which they do not succeed speedily, and abandon it for some other, in its turn to be abandoned. It is the long, steady grind that wins in the end. Few can stand sudden success; it throws them off their stride.—New York Age.
As everybody knows, these empty gin bottles became such a nuisance at Abeokuta and danger to both man and beast that the authorities were compelled to pass a law prohibiting the people from throwing empty gin bottles on the streets. Rev. M. L. Stone, the noted Yuba orator, attracted huge crowds to his church night after night to hear his account of his experience of empty gin bottles at Abeokuta and elsewhere; and his famous utterance, "Bi oyi si bl, Igo! bi oyi oshu, Igo! ("If you turn this way, Bottles; If you turn the other way, Bottles") is a lingering pat-word in everybody's mouth. On the other hand, garden borders formed of empty, upturned bottles, still exist and can be seen any day by anyone who desires to see them. Of course, it is not to be wondered at if evidence of this kind escapes the notice of those who would pretend that drinking and the havoc it is producing are non-existent. It is the same old story expressed in the aphorism, "None are so blind as those who will not see."—Lagos Weekly Record.
One of the chief questions to be considered by our next general conference will be the adjustment of our financial system. Our plan of assessment based on one dollar per member and apportioned among the conferences according to their numerical and financial strength is as nearly just and equitable as we can hope to make it. The trouble seems to lie in another quarter, the irregular collection and the inequitable disbursement of the funds coming to the department. It is well proven that immediately before the conference assembles the general fund is raised. Another suggestion that seems to meet with deserved favor is to have one depository for the general assessment and reporting every dollar collected directly to it. This would furnish financial credit never before enjoyed. The corresponding secretaries would then become in a larger degree field agents and a vigorous campaign for all benevolent collections would ensue. We would be glad to hear from those who have something to suggest relative to these really important questions.—Star of Zion.
We are making herculean efforts to save an organization which has ranked along the side of such white organizations as the Royal Arcanum, Christian Brotherhood, Knights of Honor and many others. It has done much to start the negro on the road to success. The principles and rules of the organization are the same they were 20 years ago when the negroes of this and other states were checked in their recklessness and taught what could be done by co-operation, combination and concentration. These lessons have been helpful to the whole race, and especially members of the order. Our condition is not on account of our rules and regulations nor on account of insufficient assessment, but mismanagement has brought the disaster to our door. We are proceeding in a different way and with different guides, so we extend you an invitation to cast your fortunes with us.—True Reformer.
Nashville offers many opportunities for the negroes in her bounds. For instance, there is not a single negro shoe store in Nashville, nor a dry goods store, nor a millinery store, nor a man's clothing store; there is not a bakery nor a confectionery store. There are several communities where there is not a drug store, nor even a grocery store; there is not a furniture store where new goods are sold; every dish, tin pan, in fact, everything that is used in the negro kitchens of Nashville are bought from men other than black men. To say that negroes cannot engage successfully in any of these businesses is a mistake, and the charge that if they should attempt it the negroes would not support them is also erroneous.—Nashville Globe.

National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes Formed.
PLAN MUCH ACTIVE WORK
CONSOLIDATION OF ORGANIZATIONS MARKS NEW DEPARTURE IN SOCIAL WORK-OFFICERS OF NEW LEAGUE.
New York City.—Thrée organizations which have been doing a great work in the interest of the negroes of Greater New York, namely, the Committee for Improving the Industrial Conditions of Negroes in New York, the National League for the Protection of Colored Women, and the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, consolidated with a view to doing more constructive work, and formed what will be known as the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes.
The organization of the new league marks a new departure in social work among negroes as well as in the entire community. This is the first time that a number of social agencies have gotten together with a definite alm of uniting their work and preventing overlapping and duplication. It is also the first time that such organization have come together to make a consolidated appeal to the community for financial support. The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes will not only act as a clearing house for information, but will superintend and direct in a general way the work of the different organizations under its direction.
The objects of the league are to promote and to carry on constructive and preventive social work, for improving the social and economic conditions among negroes in urban centers; to bring about co-ordination and co-operation among existing agencies among negroes in urban centers to develop other agencies where necessary; to secure and train negro social workers, and to make such studies in cities as may be required for the carrying out of the objects of the league.
The membership of the league consists of equal representation from the membership of the three organizations.
The officers are: Prof. E. R. A. Selligman, chairman; Dr. Wm. L. Bulkley, Mrs. Wm. H. Baldwin, Jr., and Jacob W. Mack, vice-chairmen; Edward E. Pratt, secretary; A. S. Frissell, treasurer; L. Hollingsworth Wood, assistant treasurer.
The executive committee are: Paul D. Cravath, Prof. Felix Adler and Miss Frances A. Kellor, from the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes; Dr. E. P. Roberts, Mrs. E. B. Leaf and Mrs. Haley Fiske, from the National League for the Protection of Colored Women; the Rev. Wm. H. Brooks, Abraham Lefkowitz and the Rev. S. H. Bishop, from the Committee for Improving the Industrial Condition of Negroes in New York.
The members of the finance committee are: The chairman, secretary treasurer and assistant treasurer, exofficio; E. Everit Macy, Fred R. Moore and Dr. Wm. Jay Schieffelin.
The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes is not only a local committee. Already branches are being organized in various cities throughout the country, which will be under the general direction of the new National League. The object of these committees in other cities will be to do work similar to that done by the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, which has been in existence in New York city for about one year.
This new movement toward the consolidation of the negro activities in New York and other large cities is the outgrowth of the work of the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, which was organized largely through the efforts of Mrs. Wm. H. Baldwin, Jr., the latter part of 1910. The work of the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes during the past year has been peculiarly successful. In addition to bringing about the organization of the new league, it has made a preliminary survey of the Harlem district, which has resulted in a local movement among the colored residents for improvement. The committee is also conducting the work of the Central Bureau of Negro Fresh Air Agencies and has supervised and directed all the fresh air work among negroes in New York city during the last summer. The committee also conducted a mode, camp for colored boys at Manorville, L. L, and a playground was established in Harlem. One of the most interesting parts of the committee's work, which will be continued under the national league, is the work done in economics and social science at Fisk university. This work has been conducted with great success by Prof. Geo. E. Haynes, and the students have not only been given academic work, but practical work in the community as well.
This year there has been established two graduate fellowships under the Committee on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, and two students, one a graduate of Fisk university and the other of Atlanta Biptist college, are studying at the New York School of
Philanthropy and Columbia university. The National League for the Prevention of Colored Women has been doing a growing and important work in the community. Stations of the league have been established at Norfolk, Philadelphia, Memphis, Baltimore and New York, where travelers are met and aided. At Philadelphia the league has established its own lodging house. It also keeps a list of reliable employment agencies to which people seeking employment are referred. Several amusement clubs for young women have been established.
The Committee of Improving the Industrial Condition of Negroes in New York, which is one of the older organizations working among negroes, has continued through its committee and officers to carry on work which has for its object the bettering of the industrial conditions among negroes in New York city. It is promoting toward education, facilities for finding employment for negro artisans and for the promotion of social work among the negro communities in the city.
The membership of the executive committee of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes is representative of all points of view and various sections of both the white and colored communities. The remaining membership of the new national league will be chosen by the executive committee already elected. With such representative membership, the success of this new movement seems almost assured.
IROQUOIS CLUB ELECTION
JAMES LEWIS, JR., CHOSEN PRESIDENT—RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED LAUDING WORK OF W. L. COHEN.
New Orleans, La.—At the annual election of officers of the Iroquois club, the following officers were elected: James Lewis, Jr., president; J. Madison Vance, first vice-president; Dr. L. B. Landry, second vice-president; E. O. Moss, third vice-president; Ed Barnes, recording secretary, defeating R. J. Maurise; C. J. Reeves, financial secretary; Dr. J. A. Hardin, treasurer; members of governing committee, Joseph Cavalier, Z. A. Cohn, Jordan Cavalier, Theo. Evans, John Alberts, Dr. Ed Vincent, J. E. Hobbs and E. M. Holland.
At a recent meeting of the club called to nominate officers in conformity with the recommendations of the special committee on reorganization, of which Attorney J. M. Vance was chairman, the following resolution offered by Ed Barnes, was unanimously adopted:
"Whereas, Hon. W. L. Cohen, president of the club for twelve successive terms of one year each, or as can be said since its organization down to the present, has declared his inability to further serve the club in that high office, and in view of the fact that his splendid executive ability, coupled with the valuable services he has rendered were largely instrumental in advancing the club and proved a potent factor in its existence to this time, thereby manifesting a devotion that none will gain say; and
"Whereas, After more than a decade of faithful and honest service volunteered and put forth to maintain and continue the wide reputation this club enjoys abroad, it is meet and proper that we should express our regrets that his pressing business affairs compels him to relinquish the throttle and commit it to the hands of others; therefore, be it
"Resolved, That the Iroquois club in meeting assembled on this date reiterates the abiding faith and confidence it has reposed and still reposes in W. L. Cohen, its retiring president, and places the highest estimate on the services and sacrifices he rendered unselfishly for the club's uplift.
"Resolved, Further, That as a mark of esteem to Hon. W. L. Cohen, who now descends from his office to take a place in the ranks of active workers
—"The Men Behind the Gun," carrying with him the good will and wishes of the members, the club endorses the proposition to confer on him as a token of appreciation of his real worth, the exceptional distinction of honorary life member; and that his name and the proposed title be placed accordingly on the ballot along with the officers and members of the governing committee to be voted for, and so that each qualified voter may register his approval to so elect Hon. W. L. Cohen the words 'For and Against' shall be printed on said ballot."
WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
FOR CONGO REGION
Berlin, Germany.—An ambitious venture with wireless telegraphy is about to be tried by the German government in the colony of German East Africa. At present that colony is without a direct cable connection with Germany and uses a British line. The government is planning a continuation to Kamerun of the telegraph line recently carried down the Moroccan coast to connect with the new Bramian-German cable.
It is further planned to send wireless messages across the vast Congo wilderness to Central East Africa. The central station in that colony will be erected at Tabora, which lies about 175 miles south of Lake Victoria.
It is about 2,500 miles from Kamerun station, and a specially powerful equipment will be required. The authorities apparently entertain no doubt as to the success of the undertaking and they even expect to make substantial reductions in the cost of cabling to East Africa

ANNUAL NOVEMBER SALE of

WHEN milady takes it upon her to go forth in glittering array, as to the opera or a reception, she must give great attention to the decoration of her coiffure. This will not be difficult this season, because fashion has taken to herself all the beautiful features, which have heretofore figured in millinery, to be used in adorning the splendid coiffure. These features, beautiful in themselves, she has seen fit to embellish with mock jewels. The lovely peacock feather is shown with eye partially outlined with emeralds and rhinestone. The soft ostrich plume
STYLES FOR THE BRUNETTE
Vivid Colorings, So Popular Just Now, Need Dark Beauty to Set Them Off.
At a recent style show held in Washington under the patronage of a committee of society women the living models chosen were girls with brown hair and brown eyes. No matter how beautiful a girl of the blonde type might be, she did not have a chance of being chosen for the show. The blonde girl is not admired this season, for she does not bring out the good points of the new "creations" and "dreams" launched by the Paris dressmakers for the winter season.
Poiret, the most daring of the Paris dress artists, still clings to the oriental in his latest models. He has finally acknowledged his "jupe pantalon" or Turkish trouser skirt to be a failure, but the wonderful vivid colorings of the orient still hold his attention and in some of his startling new afternoon and evening frocks he has combined vivid reds, blues and greens—color schemes which would be lurid and terrible except when combined with the master hand of a Poiret and worn by a woman of the right type.
The fair beauty of a blonde model is eclipsed when she dons one of these frocks with its vivid color notes. She is not the woman to set it off to best advantage, so an olive skinned, almond eyed beauty is chosen in her place. It is said there will be no flaxen haired models employed at any of the big style shows held in this country or Paris. Only the languorous beauties who suggest the mystery of the orient are in demand.
Desirable Millinery Furs.
Touches of fur are the rule on the winter models, says the Drygoods Economist. Ermine is a strong favorite in high-class millinery and beaver is a high novelty, being used to edge and face brims, and in bands and bows encircling the crown. Small, close-fitting bonets and turbans are shown in the short-haired furs with long or short empire scarfs and frequently a muff to match. Mole is in prominent use, also sealskin and its substitutes, as well as ermine and beaver. Skunk is used in large quantities for trimming purposes.
Quaint Dancing Frocks.
On some of the little dancing frocks of chiffon or net made for the afternoon dancing classes of the very much ycunger set wool embroidery is very much in evidence, and until one has seen a dress of this description it is hard to realize just how effective the popular worsted trimming may be. Some of the gowns have bands of wool flower work about the bottom of the skirt and on the girdle, and a frock of white chiffon had a blue tunic effect bordered with worsted flowers resembling roses and forget-me-nots.
is mounted in a circlet of big pearls and little rihne stones, and a strand of these, with the stones alternating, are mounted along the rib of the plume.
The beautiful and graceful paradise shows the stem in a jeweled cabochon and many tiny dew-drop spangles scattered over the flues.
Besides feathers, tiny ribbon roses are favored of fashion, and between the two, with the addition of jeweled bands, the choice covers the field and everyone may be suited from debutant to doager.
DRESS FOR YOUNG GIRL
1
This design is for a girl of 10 to 12 years, and may be carried out in any thin woolen material; our model is in pastel blue cashmere.
The short-waisted bodice is cut low and square in the neck, a piece of fancy galloon being carried across the edge both front and back; wide pieces of material are carried over the shoulders, they are edged with the trimming, and the ends are gathered in under the band at top of spirit; the panel in front of skirt is carried up over bodice both front and back in a deep point, it is trimmed below the point with buttons; the trimming is carried across sides between the panels at top of hem.
Materials required: 3 yards 44 inches wide, about 4 yards trimming.
Tulle Theater Caps
Fur and tulle is one of the inconsistencies of the smart autumn millinery. The charm of such a combination is nowhere more evident than in the quaint little theater cap seen in the best shops. These are of the most vivid shades of tulle—burning red, flashing green, brilliant blue flaming orange, bright cerise, with wisps of fur of a darker tone along the edges. A cap of deepest orange tulle was bordered with mink and had a huge pillow muff of the tulle and mink to correspond. Cerise tulle is striking with seal, and the deeper reds with ermine. Bright blue and moleskin is also a favorite combination.
