Negro Soldiers World's Finest
VOL. XX1.
(From New York Age)
In view of the record being made in the European war zone by the black soldiers brought into the war zone by the French and English peoples, it is of value and interest to note also the record in this country of the Negro soldiers belonging to the United States army. For two years or more the Ninth Cavalry has been stationed on the Mexican border, and not infrequently the associated press dispatches bring the news that troopers of that regiment have fallen victims to stray Mexican bullets which have come across the boundry line. And the surviving comrades have not had a chance to avenge the fallen victims.
The gallant attitude and soldierly devotion to duty of the Negro soldiers arouses the admiration and respect of all who come in contact with them, and it has been declared that they are the finest soldiers in the world.
A TRIBUTE TO NEGRO SOLDIERS
H. A. Lamb, a white newspaper man of the Southwest, is staff correspondent of the Douglass (Ariz.) Daily International, one of the largest and most influential papers in that section. Lamb recently visited Naco, Ariz., where the Ninth and Tenth regiments of cavalry are stationed and as a result he sent the following special to that paper:
Naco, Ariz, Oct. 10.—To my mind the most interesting thing here is not the tiresome, ammunition-wasting battle access the line between Maytorena and Hill, but the behavior of the United States cavalry troopers (Ninth and Tenth regiments, composed of Negroes) on border duty here. The American soldiers have gone through an experience more trying than actual war, and have stood the test. A trip to Naco to see them on duty is an object lesson in patriotism. Nobody can come up here and observe these soldiers without feeling prouder than ever before of the men who maintain the nation's military prestige.
To me it seems that the behavior of the American troopers has not been only commendable, but remarkable. I have noticed it from the first. The only complaints I have heard about them are from General Hill, and his allegations are vague and without corroboration.
On this side of the line, under conditions naturally provocative of more or less criticism, I have never heard a complaint. From the troopers themselves and their
officers. I have never noticed a soldier, even while off duty, acting any other part than that of a gentleman. Their discipline is perfect. More exceptional, however, is the common sense and moderation with which they use their authority.
Making a gallant charge on the enemy is easy compared with the ordeal the troopers are going through. This is a test not only of courage, but of patience and restraint and kindness. Cheerfully officers and men take their lot when kept on duty one or two days at a stretch without getting a wink of sleep. Always when on duty keeping civilians out of danger when the firing becomes heavy they are in more or less danger of being shot. During the attack early Sunday morning, for instance American officers rode through showers of-called "stray" bullets to warn people in frame houses of their danger and to assist them to the few places in town really safe. And getting shot by a "stay" has none of the glory and glamour of being wounded on the battlefield. SIX TROOPERS SHOT BY MEXICANS
Though they have seen six of their fellow troopers shot by Mexicans, in one or two instances it seemed deliberately., not once, so far as I am aware, have the United States troopers yielded to the natural temptation to violate orders and shoot back across the line.
The behavior of the troopers stands out finest in the treatment of the Mexican women and children, who are refugees on this side. The soldiers are their protectors. When the dirty, miserable refugees themselves were too indifferent to clean up the quarters in the opera house Troop B Ninth cavalry, commanded by Capt. W. B. Cowin, is in charge of the opera house. Yesterday was a busy day for them, as they had to look after arranging quarters for the Mexican wounded.
The record of the Ninth and Tenth cavalry troopers at Naco is undoubtedly a credit to their regiments.
London, Oct. 27.—A despatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company from the Hague says that Magna Bell, the native chief of the German Cameroon, has been executed because he attempted to stir the natives to rebel against Germany. Cameroon is a German colony of Wertern Equatorial Africa, with an area estimated at 191,000 square miles. It has a population estimated 3,600,000, of whom less than 1,000 are white.

WANT NEGRO BISHOPS & SEPARATE CONFERENCES
Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 27.—The two hundred Negro layman and ministers of the Methodist Episcopal Church who met here October 21 and 22 to consider the future status of the 300,000 Negro members of the denomination, put themselves on record as favoring the election of Negro bishops for Negro churches and for the establishment of a jurisdictional or quadrennial conference, to be composed of the Negro membership, with identical powers and privileges as the white conference.
The paper read by Dr. Ernest Lyon of Baltimore on "Methodism and the Negro in the Future," was the basis and substance of the
declaration of principles adopted by the council. The Rev. W. H. Brooks of New York, who was chairman of the committee which issued the call for the meeting, presided at the opening and was made permanent chairman, with Mathew S. Davage as secretary. BISHOP SCOTT SAT WITH COMMITTEE Bishop I. B. Scott, who has jurisdiction only over the work in Africa, was present and presided at the first session. He also sat with the committee which formulated the address to the church. Whatever tendency toward radicalism was shown by any of the members of the council was effectually controlled and directed by the conservative members of the body, the chief of whom appeared to be I. Garland Penn. Not knowing what
RACE NEWS
GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES
Pensacola, Fla., Oct. 27.—For the first time in Florida's history a white man has been convicted of murdering a Negro. Three white men, Ben McDaniel, B. M. Franklin and Math Davis, were convicted at Blountstown, Calhoun County. Fla., of killing Eunice Johnson a Negro, whose body was found in a creek. Another Negro, a material witness, was killed at the same time, but the men were not tried on that charge. They will probably be given life imprisonment. The white men are all young fairly prominent in the community. No reason was advanced for the killing. Court was in session when the crime was committed and the arrest of the men was followed quickly by their indictment, trial and conviction. Ten days after the murder they were convicted.
Asbury Park, N. J., Oct. 28. The Carnegie Hero Fund has awarded $400 and a pension of $40 for life to Mrs. Henry West whose husband was killed at the Summerfield avenue railroad crossing, September 27, 1913, while saving the lives of two white children. Judson Haviland, and Buddy Jones both about 9 years of age, were driving a pony hitched to a cart and started across the tracks at the crossing where West was stationed as a watchman in front of an approaching train. West, who had lost an arm and all but three fingers of the other hand in an ac- effect radical action by the council might have upon his tenure of office as one of the secretaries of the Freedmen's Aid Society, Penn was evidently determined to run no unnecessary risk.
"Methodism and the Negro," the general topic considered by the council, was discussed by Dr. R. E. Jones, who contented himself with warning the colored members against doing anything to hurt themselves. Dr. Lorenza King of Atlanta discussed the past attitude of the church, bringing out some personal history, while Dr. P. O'Connell, discussing the present, rather disturbed the composure of the council. After Dr. Lyon had read his paper some of the radically inclined secured the floor and then things began to stir, but Penn stepped into the breach and with the aid of conservatives quieted the disturbing elements. "The Movements of Negro Bishops in the M. E. Church" was ordered printed and distributed because of its peculiar worth.

Liberia, the African republic, has been isolated because of the European war and her citizens are upon the verge of suffering for lack of food. All communication either by ship or by cable with the U. S. and Europe have been severed by the war and food supplies which regularly entered Liberia by water no longer reach there. Three months supply is the usual limit of the food kept on hand and the last shipments are almost gone. Missionaries have laid the condition before the State department at Washington and are importing Secretary Daniels of the Navy Department to rush a food ship to Liberia. Only immediate action will prevent jeopardy and elaborate plans, contingent upon duration of the European war, must be considered to prevent calamity in Liberia. A million and a half of citizens and natives are affected. Their activities have been confined mostly to the trading of raw products to Europeans and Americans for food stuffs in meals, flours, and canned goods.
Tulsa county, Oklahoma, lays claim to the champion father of the United States in Charles Roberts, an aged Creek Negro, who is the parent of 42 children; 31 sons and 11 daughters.

The Roberts family owns almost an entire township, every acre of which came to them as a freedman's right Roberts is now 70 years of age He has been married three times.

HON. GEO. A. CARLSON
NEW GOVERNOR AT ONE TIME
POOR IMMIGRANT'S BOY.
Boundless Ambition Aided Him to Rise From Humble Station to Highest Office of State.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.—George Carlson, the newly elected governor, was born in Iowa of Swedish parentage. His father and mother were immigrants. They landed in New York and came directly to Iowa, their destination when they left Sweden.
While he was still a boy the family moved to Denver, and subsequently to a farm near Greeley. There he attended the district school until he com-
PETER H.
Governor-Elect George A. Carlson. pleted the course at the age of 16. He was ambitious to continue his education and went to the State Normal School in Greeley. It is told of him that he pursued the muses under difficulties at the Normal School. The story goes that his only assets when he entered the school were a few pennies, a red cow and boundless ambition. He found an empty shack on the outskirts of Greeley, so it is related, and promptly made it his home. He lived physically and partly financially on the red cow's milk, and garnered the wherewithal to supply the balance of his small needs from various odd jobs around the school. In addition he managed to lead his classes and take a prominent part in athletics.
On the completion of his course at Greeley, Carlson went to the State Agricultural College for one year. Not yet satisfied with knowledge, he decided that he would take a degree at the State University at Boulder, and did so. He made both ends meet during his course at Boulder by working on a ranch.
He moved to Fort Morgan and married. He now has four children.
Two years ago he was elected district attorney, receiving 1,700 more votes than Roosevelt and Taft combined. As district attorney he has been very active in the prosecution of alleged offenders in Weld county in connection with bootlegging and grafting in bridge building.
It is said that Carlson counts his mother the wisest of his counselors and that he always follows her advice.
Carson has been a life-long Republican. He is an active church member. While Governor-elect George A. Carlson will not be inaugurated until Jan. 2, he will begin to take an active interest in state affairs and to study state-wide business and industrial conditions immediately, according to a statement he made before leaving for Fort Collins and the country for a brief rest.

Washington.—Many changes in the organization of the House of Representatives will be made when Champ Clark and "Uncle Joe" Cannon once more face each other across the center aisle at the beginning of the next Congress.
The dwindling of the Democratic majority, which will drop after the close of the December session from 140 to 24, will necessitate a general shifting of the working order in the House.
With their slender majority the Democrats, while able to re-elect Speaker Clark and retain control of the committees, will be forced to maintain an almost perfect organization.

DRYSWINBY8,367
MAJORITY OF 20,000 IS CLAIMED BY THE ANTIS.
Liquor Men's 9,849 Lead in Denver Melts As Full County Returns Come in From Over the State.
Denver, Nov. 6.—Late returns from the state indicate that Colorado is steadily swinging further into the "dry" column, in spite of the majority of 9,849 votes given the "wets" in Denver county.
Estimates based upon partial returns from forty-nine counties in the state, including Denver, show the vote to be: "Dry," 111,649, and "wet," 103,282. A majority of 8,367 for the "drys." The counties yet to be heard from will probably go "dry."
The Denver county total vote on the prohibition amendment was: For, 28,575; against, 38,424; making an anti-prohibition majority of 9,849 in Denver county.
The Rev. A. J. Finch of the Colorado Anti-Saloon league claims the state by not less than 15,000, with a prospect that, when the final returns are compiled, it will reach 20,000.
"Nearly every county in the state went 'dry,' there is no question about the result," he said.
Victor Olmsted, secretary of the Colorado Business Men's Home Rule league, refuses to concede a "dry" victory, asserting, instead, that the state will go "wet" by a safe majority.

Drys Get Arizona; Democrats Offices.
Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 5.—Arizona went dry in election. Returns early indicated that prohibition had won the state. Wet leaders conceded the victory of the drys by about 600. Dry leaders claimed the state by at least 2,000. Democratic officeholders were re-elected, including United States Senator Mark Smith and Representative Carl Hayden. Governor Hunt was re-elected over Ralph Cameron, Republican. His estimated plurality was 3,000.

While returns from precincts that cannot be reached by telephone or telegraph wires will be missing for several days, both parties concede they will not change the results. Partial returns give Hernandez 6,528 and Fergusson 4,335. Republicans claim the election of Hernandez by 4,000. The Republicans control the Legislature.

REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
After a period of six years the people of Colorado have shown their entire dissatisfaction with the Democratic party by electing Republicans to nearly all state offices. Three-fourths of a Legislature consisting of Republicans, with a Governor, Secretary of State and Treasurer of the same party, ought to lend inspiration to any body of officials to accomplish the best for a state having the machinery to start their work. The result of this election serves a two-fold purpose; first, that the people being alive to their share of responsibility are determined to get rid of any party that plays fast and loose with their political faith, expressing their disapproval by removing them from office or depriving them of their power; and second, setting such a standard for the party returned that any deviation from same will be rewarded with similar treatment. Politicians have learned at last that the days of "bossism" are over—that there is a certain element in our voting population that follows their political actions keenly even though they may not go to the general political meetings, and who becoming disappointed in their expectation through breach of faith of their leaders, prove their confidence is shaken by not restoring them to power. Viewing therefore, the result of this recent election we can only remind the Republican party that the people in their anxiety to get away from an administration which was more destructive than constructive demand, good government, free from taint, free from the selfishness which appears well at the start but ends in ruin—a government that will stand for the people, engaging itself in everything that tends to their welfare, giving equal rights to all and showing favoritism to none. Rejoicing as we do at the return of the Republican Party—the party that we identified ourselves with ere we entered the journalistic field, and for a quarter of a century remained with it up to the present, through thick and thin, storm and calm, we feel proud that the opportunity is afforded us to express our appreciation of those who returned to the party, reinforcing us to such an extent as to merit such a victory. Long live the Republican Party, and in her endeavors to maintain-her cause may righteousness be the agency that will guide her affairs and bring peace, harmony and prosperity to the people.
COMING PROSPERITY
From the sweeping Republican victory throughout the country it is evident that an era of prosperity has begun. The present administration, though in the majority in the Houses, has been so greatly reduced that it will be compelled to respect the opinions and actions of the Republican Party.
In the space of twenty months the nation has writhed under the policy of new things—reforms so impractical as to cause reduction of treasury, increased taxation, etc., and now the time has come when, groaning under their load and exhausted in their efforts to bear the burden any longer, the people have resolved to be governed by an administration that will bring success and restore their losses.
On every hand we can hear of investments that are to be made in our state so as to be able to cope with the demand that will be caused by the continuance of the war. Men who hesitated to invest on account of our affairs being in the hands of inexperienced officials are coming forward and declaring their faith in the Republican Party, which they say has a "backbone" and stands for general improvement. It can be easily noticed as one converses with the business men that they look forward to increase of trade, and encouragement is being offered to those who had lost heart to revive their hopes, as everything promises to be on the road to success. With such a rallying to the Grand Old Party our leaders must realize the responsibility now devolving on them and must work in harmony to insure perpetual benefits to the people of the land. Strong in our faith of the party, we look forward to better times, and when they shall have gotten in control of the national government we will be assured of protection and advantages that will keep alive in our memory the good works and deeds of the Republican Party. "The times are changed and we are changed with them."

The Right Kind of Reading Matter
Music an Intoxicant Rather Than Food By Nathan Haskell Dole, Boston, Mass.
Music an Intoxicant Rather Than Food By Nathan Haskell Dole, Boston, Mass.
If by music is meant the combination of words and tune, there can be no doubt that it has aided humanity in its slow and corkscrew upward march; but the question would be still unsettled whether it was not the words that had this beneficent effect. Andrew Fletcher wrote to the marquis of Montrose about a very wise man who "believed that if a man were permitted to make all the ballads he need not care who should make the laws of a nation."
If a person's emotions are stirred that person may rise to unusual heights of accomplishment. The ancient Greeks recognized this and noted the different effects produced by the Lydian or the Dorian modes. What those modes were is still discussed. Certain combinations of sounds or notes of instruments stimulated to bravery in battle; others to languorous and sensuous idleness.
No doubt "fife shriek, cymbal clash and trumpet blare to drum accentuation" stir the feelings. The beating of the tomtqm, the wild rhythm of savage horns is sometimes called music; but after all the regular accent rather than any melody is what stimulates. It is not music in our modern sense of the word.
The Greek myths seem to symbolize a popular notion that music has a practical value. Take that of Amphion. He was the son of Zeus by Antiope, daughter of King Nykteus of Thebes. He and his brother Zethos were born on Mount Kithairon, whither their mother had fled to escape from the somewhat justified jealous wrath of her earthly husband. They were brought up by shepherds. Hermes taught Amphion the art of playing on the lyre. His brother became a great huntsman and breeder of cattle. When they came to learn of their royal origin they went to claim the throne. They killed King Lykos and they tied his second wife, Dirke, to the bull to be torn to pieces. Then, wishing to surround the city with walls, Amphion took his lyre and played. The great cyclopean stones, when they heard the strains, jumped up of their own accord and ranged themselves in orderly array—a method of contracting that would make the fortune of the builders of modern subways and canals.
It probably signifies that the slaves who really worked at the task were encouraged by song and instrumental music, just as sailors even now heave the anchor while one of their number sings a chanty.
Pure music, dissociated from words or from the crude rhythms of the march or the waltz, marked by the wry-necked life or the banging drum, is simply a sensual, emotional, or perhaps an intellectual pleasure. It goes very well with the results of progress, is very possibly a barometer of civilization. It may cause pleasure to some and pain to others, just as it seems to affect dogs. It would be a great loss not to have it; its cultivation softens manners and cheers; it perhaps may inspire hope in sensitive souls, but that it causes progress can hardly be maintained
In one of Philadelphia's schools, situated in a district largely inhabited by poor families, more than one hundred badly nourished children were selected for experimental feeding.
Importance of Free Meals in Our Schools
By J. BAILEY RUSHING, Chicago
In one of Philadelphia's schools, situated in a district largely inhabited by poor families, more than one hundred badly nourished children were selected for experimental feeding.
They were given a lunch in the middle of the forenoon each school day for four weeks, the rations consisting of such nutrients as corn mush, oatmeal and rice, with a pint of milk daily for each child.
The physician under whose direction the experiment was tried does not regard as the essential point that the 113 children gained 250 pounds during the four weeks, but he does attach importance to the fact that they gained far more in scholarship.
Indeed, comparisons show that the improvement in their work was much more marked than that of the children who did not receive the cereals and milk.
Learning is hard for children of weak bodies. They need a full supply of good, rich blood, which makes for strength of brain as well as of body. Chicago educators have noted this in their experiments with pupils of low vitality when their supply of fresh air is increased, together with proper feeding.
The question arises, of course, whether it is profitable to make large investments in school equipment and teaching forces for pupils physically unable to make efficient use of them.
Proper Dances for Our Factory Girls
By FRED S. SCHRAM, Boston, Mass.
The first of a series of musicals and dances inaugurated by a Boston firm of cigar manufacturers for the young women in its employ was given at the cigar factory on a recent Monday.
Proper Dances for Our Factory Girls
By FRED S. SCHRAM, Boston, Mass.
The first of a series of musicals and dances inaugurated by a Boston firm of cigar manufacturers for the young women in its employ was given at the cigar factory on a recent Monday noon. A professional trio furnished instrumental and vocal music and the two hundred or more young women employed in the tobacco-stripping department danced in the big hall that is one of the show places of the building. Spanish dances given by two of the young women were features of the occasion.
Informal dancing by the girls to the music of a piano has been indulged in daily since the big factory was opened last January.
On several occasions professional musicians have assisted in the merry-making.
These events became so popular that the management decided to make them a permanent feature.
Various musicians, orchestras and other entertainers will be present Monday noons from now until the summer season.
It is also planned by the company to have a dancing master present to give the girls free instruction in the proper steps of the modern dances.
Chess, "the noble game," is one which appeals to people who are endowed with good thinking qualities.
Chess Serves to Exercise the Faculties By HUCH UNDERWOOD, Indianapolis, Ind.
As the athlete takes to athletics, so will the intelli-
gent person take to chess. The game is complicated. It requires skillful playing, rapid and exact calculations in mentally following out different lines of attack and defense, and choosing the strongest.
From the exercise of the faculties that are used in chess playing an inexhaustible source of diversified entertainment is derived.
It is an inexpensive pastime, too. If you have no friends who play chess books can be had at the public Library.

Miss Hobson was assisted in the program by Master Atwell Rose with several violin selections. A description of each number by Miss d'Autremont, which, together with their perfect execution, added greatly to their appreciation, which was evidenced by vigorous applause and flattering comment.

THEY COME HOME TO ROOST.
After six years of Democratic domination in Colorado the state is now in the Republican column as a result of last Tuesday's election. It is indeed gratifying to know that the Negro vote, which has been split in the past six years, voted solid for the Republicans with but a few exceptions. The Colorado Statesman, since its first issue, has ever championed the cause of Republican principles and we are truly thankful for the many congratulations we have received from our unbroken faith in Republicanism.
SHORTER CHAPEL'S NOTES.
Tomorrow at the morning service, certificates will be given a class from the primary department of the Sunday school by Mrs. E. P. Costigan, state superintendent of this department, and the pastor will preach a special sermon on Painting The Face On the Inside." In the evening his subject will be "Lost Opportunities." The topic for the league will be, "Getting Out of the Rut and Keeping Out." Mr. Geo. Tolbert will lead the discussion.
Quarterly meeting and Go-to-Church Day at Shorter was observed very effectively. The attendance at all the services was gratifying, thirteen accessions from the Sunday campaign and otherwise were had and the offering for the quarterly meeting ran to $152. Presiding Elder Ward was in his glory both morning and evening and he was wondrously used of the Lord; Rev. Washington of Campbell Chapel preached most acceptably in the afternoon. His congregation came up to the help of the Lord in large numbers and the Spirit of power manifested Himself among us through the preaching of the gospel of peace. During the quarter just closed, Shorter enjoyed a marked degree of prosperity. Despite the financial stringency now upon us, $1,465.84 was raised for all purposes. The Presiding Elder commended most heartily the pastor and members for the splendid work accomplished.
Mrs. R. L. Pope, who has been on the sick list for several days, is convalescing. Our pastor desires to publicly thank the membership and friends for courtesies shown.

Little Johnny's Guess
Little sister, who was fond of asking questions, asked Johnny, "Why do they call Captain Spearpoint a veteran?" Johnny thought for a moment and then answered, "I guess it's because he's a horse doctor."
Staggered the Witness
"Now tell us," sternly demanded the young legal luminary whose brow overhung like the back of a snapping turtle, addressing the cowering witness, "what was the weather, if any, upon the afternoon in question?"
Can You Keep a Secret
Can You Keep a Secret?
"Can you keep a secret?" is a very common question, usually put by a person who doesn't want to. Now you will reflect that a man going about his own business with several other people's secrets in his brain pockets is pretty certain to pull one of them out inadvertently. For, of course, other people's secrets are of no great importance. So when the question comes, "Can you keep a secret?" the answer should be: "No! Can you?"
Nation's Wiser Part
Since the foolish part of mankind will make wars from time to time with each other, not having sense enough otherwise to settle their differences, it certainly becomes the wiser part, who cannot prevent those wars, to alleviate as much as possible the calamities attending them.—Benjamin Franklin.
Don't you hazer strong
"Never put oil on a razor strop," said one of the largest dealers in barbers' supplies in New York. "It spoils it for sharpening steel. A new strop should need no attention for a year at least. If it begins to get dry, just take a little ordinary lather and rub it well in. This will soften it again, and nothing more is necessary."
In the last junior scholarship examination of the London county council the candidates were asked to explain the advantage it was to children to be taught to sing. One youngster rather evaded the question, but epigrammatically answered that "Singers' work is like earning a penny for eating a piece of chocolate."
Quite a Difference
Sir George Rose, once turning a corner, came suddenly upon some young barristers who were in the act of aping his walk and gestures. "You mistake, gentlemen," said the good-natured wit, accosting them. "That is not the air of the Rose; it is only the stalk."

THE WASTE OF WAR
The war that now engulfs Europe is only a preface to the story of sorrow and desolation that will follow.
The lives that are lost, the cities that are destroyed and the resources that are wasted will have their greatest effect upon future generations.
Until the last chapter is reached there will be a story of stragnant industries, desolate homes, barren fields and fatherless children.
While this great conflict of waste is being waged we Americans are fighting for the Battles of Peace.
An army of 150,000 men and women enlisted in the ranks of the Bell System serves the telephone wants of the American public.

The thirtieth annual conference of
Church Workers Among Colored Peo-
ple was held in St. Philip's church,
New York city, October 6 to 9, by
courtesy of the rector, Rey. Hutch-
ins Chew Bishop, and his people.
About fifty clergy attended the ses-
sions and more than one hundred lay-
men and women were visiting dele-
gates, ‘There was much interest in
‘the sessions for consideration of var-
Jed topics; the services were well at-
‘tended, the attendance was remark-
‘ably good in the evenings when from
‘seven to nine hundred persona were
present. Dioceses in the following
states were well represented: Missis-
sippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
South Carolina, North Carolina, Vir-
ginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
New Jersey, New York, Connecticut
and Massachusetts.
On Tuesday evening, after short-
ened evensong, Bishop Burch made an
address of welcome for the bishop of
New York, who was unable to be
present on account of the Minneapolis
meeting of the house of bishops. Ven-
erable Henry Baird Delany, D. D.,
president of the conference, respond-
ed to the bishop's cordial greeting.
‘The annual sermon was preached by
Rev. George F, Miller of Brooklyn.
and the necrologist’s report was read

Besides the president's annual ad-
dress and other official reports, a long
series of subjects were treated by
‘writers, appointed speakers, and yol-
“unter speakers.
| An address by Doctor Dillard of the
‘SlaterJeanes fund was of particular
value. There was a fine address by
Doctor Du Bois on the subject “War
and Prejudice.” Rev. George Chalm-
ers Richmond of Philadelphia made an
impression by an address, and Miss

iliary took active and helpful part in
the meeting of the women. A com
‘mittee was appointed from member.

reaffirmed, Commendation was given

W. Robinson, a layman of St. Philip's
church, New York, with respect to
conditions in connection with the
Brotherhood of St, Andrew and also
to the plan of haying a colored sec:

colored chapters. The plan for a ra.
cial missionary episcopate was en
thusiastically approved again, no dis

tertained as far back as 1657, when
the plague ravaged Rome.
Recent developments seem to indis
cate that the first newspaper in Eng-
lish was printed in 1620 in Amsterdam.
From the report of the correspond-
ing secretary of the Federation of Col-
ored Women’s clubs, Miss Ida Cum-
mings of Baltimore, Md., the follow-
ing excerpt is given:
“Our women are realizing as never
before the power of organization. They
are showing better judgment, working
for larger results; they have caught
the vision of service. Playing its part
in all the forces of human endeavor,
mutuality and helfulness have stamped
themselves. For these bodies of ours
to be out of harmony means disease
and death. Oh, a lack of human mu-
tuality means more!
“Here we have come as the Jewish
people came, centuries ago, to Jerusa-
lem, with their offerings, to celebrate
the harvest. Instead of dipping a gold-
en pitcher in the pool of Siloam for
the altar, we are come to draw water
of inspiration from the well of our
different experiences.
“In some states the ballot has come
to our women. We hope the day may
soon dawn when all of us may enjoy
this privilege. Jane Addams says: ‘If
woman should fulfill her traditional
responsibility to her own children, she
must bring herself to the use of the
ballot, that latest implement for self-
government.’ I belleve in woman suf-
frage because women are as integral a
part of the commonwealth as man,
and have equal social rights. But, sis-
ters, what we need is to work hard
‘and train ourselves to be fully pre-
‘pared to use this privilege when it
comes to us.
“The temperance question {s of vital
Importance to us. Sisters, let us work
with renewed energy to rid the land of
that which is doing so much to drag
us down as a race. March 13, 1913,
marked one of the most impressive
scenes in our clyic life in Baltimore,
when hundreds of our citizens ap-
peared with white citizens to protest
against the redssuance of certain
saloon licenses, and a woman of our
race held them spellbound as she
pleaded with them to close those dens,
for the children’s sake. Thirteen sa-
loons in that one district were closed
and 200 in the city.
“In the training of our children
homes and fresh air camps are being
established for the dependent ones,
girls’ homes for delinquents, and for
strangers from the rural districts. . . .
Three hundred Negro children are
born daily—and so much depends on
the child culture of today.”
A committee of seven Negroes rep-
resenting the Colored Federated Char-
ities appeared before County Judge
Ward at Houston, Tex., and spoke in
behalf of the boys in contemplation of
which the sum of $5,000 was set aside
in the bydget. The delegation declared
that a necessity for the institution ex-
isted despite the fact that the Gates-
ville institution was a suitable institu-
tion for the Negroes sent from this
county.
J. Dixie Smith, chief probation of-
ficer of Harris county, who recently
paid a visit to the Gatesville institu:
tion, declared that the Harris county
school was needed to care for juvenile
delinquents who committed minor of-
fenses. Judge Ward declared that the
matter would be taken up at an early
session of the county commissioners’
court and given due consideration.
Chile will raise $10,219,650 this year
for improvements on state railways
and $22,921,215 for betterments will
be raised in the next fixe years.
‘The vast area of rich lands in Texas,
her splendid climate, her generous
laws and her warm-hearted citizens
constitute a firm base upon which will
be erected from year to year a com-
monwealth of unprecedented prosper-
ity. ‘The instruction given in her agri-
cultural colleges and the research
work in her experiment stations will
be carried to the people of the rural
districts, Already the work of organt-
zation has begun and instruction and
demonstration in agriculture and home
economics in conformity with the pro-
visions of the Smith-Lever bill, will
inaugurate the work of popular edu-
cation of the working farmer, Surely
the good people of Texas must see an
immediate and urgent need for this
work among the people “furthest
down.” All the arguments in favor
of extension work among any people
anywhere apply with greater emphasis
to the Negro farmer.—Wade C. Rol-
lins, in the Houston Post.

TURKEY WISHES TO REPENT AND BE GOOD NOW
Ottoman Government Offers to Apologize for Attack on Russia----Germany Urges Her to Fight.
GAIN FOR ALLIES
Kaiser's Forces Blocked and Forced to Give Some Ground in Northern France, According to Official Dispatches.
( Summary of Events. )
Turkish battle cruisers bombarded two Russian Black sea ports, damaging property considerably, and sank two or three small Russian war vessels, a few days ago. The Turkish ships, recently bought from Germany, were commanded by German officers. This attack on Russia and this undeclared entry into the great European conflict caused Russia, France, England, Italy and Greece to prepare at once to clean Turkey off the European map. Seeing the handwriting on the wall, Turkey now offers to apologize for the attack.
Russia and her allies answer that an apology might be arranged if Turkey will pay for damage done, remove the German officers from the warships that made the attacks and dismantle these vessels until after the war. To this proposition Turkey has not yet replied.
It appears that Turkey's fate hangs in the balance. Germany wants her to remain in the fight, and as a moral bracer has deposited five million dollars to Turkey's credit in the Turkish Imperial bank. The Russian, British and French ambassadors and consular representatives have quit Constantinople.
Comes as No Surprise.
Turkey's entry into the war is not a surprise. Ever since hostilities started reports have come of the mobilization of the sultan's army. Always they have been denied.
German officers have been drilling the Ottoman soldiers for several months. For several years it has been known that the kaiser was aiding the sultan in his military preparations. The German military system was drilled into the Turkish soldiers and in the later Balkan war the German hand could be recognized in the movements of the Turkish army.
British Warned Turkey.
It has been said that Germany supplied the Ottoman government with large sums of money. Great Britain warned Turkey to keep off, and recent advices from Constantinople indicated that Turkey intended to maintain her neutrality.
Under stress of pursuit by British warships, the German cruisers Goeben and Breslau early in the war took refuge at Constantinople. They were purchased by Turkey, but the German officers and crews were retained. Later they sallied forth, and a warning was issued by Russia that should the Russian warships meet these two cruisers they would open fire.
The former German warships have proved a cause of irritation throughout the last few weeks to the Allies, and Great Britain asked the Ottoman government to remove the Germans from the vessels, but Turkey replied that this was a domestic question.
Means New Balkan War. Meanwhile Turkey has been under surveillance by the Allies. Its action
GENERAL KONDRATOVICH
CENTRAL CORPS
AND SERVICE
General Kondratovich is a Russian commander who has won the order of St. George by his energy and ability in the fighting with the Germans and Austrians.

in the present attack on Russian seaports has not been explained, but it is possible that her injection into the war may bring to arms some of the Balkan states which have up to the present remained quiescent.
Of the Balkan states, Servia and Montenegro already are taking part in the war, Servia having started it. Bulgaria and Rumania will stand together with Russia, it is believed, both being opposed to Austria and Turkey. Greece also will turn against the Turks and the Greek navy will be of great assistance to the Allies, it is believed.
There also is a probability of Italy being drawn into the war as the result of Turkey's latest move.
Says Germans Attack Failed.
Between the North Sea and the Oise the attacks made by the Germans have been less violent than previously, according to French official dispatches. In Belgium the Allies have progressed at the south of Dixmude and at the south of Ghelavet and have maintained their other positions. In the region of the Alsne a violent German offensive between Braye-En-Lannera and Vallly has completely failed.
The fighting on the northwestern flank is now of a particularly savage character. A considerable number of the wounded suffer from bayonet thrusts which often pass completely through parts of the bodies of men.
Lull iin Big Battle.
The battle of the Yser and the series of fights which has taken place along the whole front in Belgium and France appear, with the troops now exhausted, to have degenerated into numerous isolated attacks and counter attacks, in which the gains and losses are about equally divided between the combatants.
May Leave Belgian Coast.
The way to Bruges is now open to the Allies, allowing them to recapture Roulers, and the Germans are digging new trenches behind Ghent with feverish energy. To do this is to announce their retreat. The Germans are abandoning their wounded, guns and transports. Unless their fleet comes out to create a diversion they will be driven from the Belgian coast within a week.
Buried 25,000 Germans.
As showing the huge German losses in the Ypres region it is stated that the British soldiers have buried more than twenty-five thousand Germans. There are many great piles of German dead around Dixmude, which it has been impossible to bury on account of the continuous fighting. Dixmude is a heap of ruins. German aeroplanes have been very active.
German Week's Loss 62,000.
The German casualty lists for last week amount to 62,000. The total to date is about 420,000. Reports from stations for convalescents show that thousands of wounded have already returned to the front and others are being used as instructors for new formations.
Austro-German Retreat Ends.
Events in Poland would appear to be shaping themselves for a renewal of the fighting between the main forces of Russia and the Austro-German allies, according to German official dispatches. The Austrians and Germans have completed their retirement to new positions previously selected by them. When the vanguards of the Russians who were following them came into touch with this new line, there were several encounters in which the Russians were driven off.
Russian Advance in Suwaik.
The Russian forces advancing through Russian Poland continue to press back the Germans in the government of Suwaik while beyond the Vistula they have occupied Piotrko, Opoczno and Ozarow. The Germans have now been pushed within twenty miles of their positions along the Warta river.
"Charity Feedeth a Multitude."
King Albert of Belgium has asked the American people, through the American Committee for relief in Belgium, to help feed his starving people during the coming winter.
It has been announced from New York that the Rockefeller Foundation has determined to employ its immense resources for the relief of non-combatants in the countries afflicted by the war, and "stands ready to give millions of dollars, if necessary," according to the statement of John D. Rockefeller, jr. As a cost of $275,000 the Foundation has already chartered a ship, loaded it with 4,000 tons of provisions for the relief of the starving Belgians, and started it for Europe. The, National Red Cross has announced that Kansas City raised more money per capita (about 20 cents for each inhabitant) for European relief, than any other large city in the country.
Tsing Tau Flames Light Sea. Official advices show that a desperate fight is being made at Tsing Tau. For miles from shore the sea reflects the flames from the burning ship yards, reservoirs and houses that had been set on fire by shells from the Japanese and British warships and land artillery which cover the rushes of the infantry.
Japan to Enlarge Forces.
Japan to Enlarge Forces. At a meeting of party leaders in Japan, Premier Okuma delivered an address urging the immediate expansion of the Japanese army and navy in order to enable the imperial government to act quickly in the event of an emergency. It is expected that the new budget, to be introduced soon, will contain the largest military fund Japan has known since the war with Russia.
JAP WARSHIPS TO AID BRITISH
EIGHT NIPPON VESSELS SEEK TO
WREST RULE OF PACIFIC
FROM GERMAN FLEET.
GERMAN SHIPS ESCAPE
VICTORY OF KAISER'S SAILORS WON BY EFFICIENCY IN LONG RANGE SHOOTING.
London, Nov. 5.—Japan is rushing fleet of eight warships to wrest the control of the South American Pacific coast from the Germans, which was won by the Kaiser's warships by defeating a squadron of three British cruisers off the coast of Chile Sunday.
A steam collier which has arrived at Valparaiso reports having seen eight Japanese warships at Easter island in the Pacific about 2,300 miles west of the Chilean coast. Easter island belongs to Chile.
The Times reports that the German cruiser Koenigsberg has been put out of action in the Indian ocean. The Koenigsberg is a protected cruiser of 3,348 tons.
Vancouver and the other seaports on the Canadian Pacific coast are reported to be in terror of bombardment from the victorious German fleet.
The victory of the German squadron places a new aspect on the naval situation in the Pacific.
For the present, at least, it definitely shifts command of southern waters to the Germans, and until there has been a readjustment of forces, will make itself felt in the movement of all cargoes between the Pacific coast and Europe.
Which way the Germans will elect to turn next is purest speculation, but they are free to move northward toward Canada.
The engagement accounts for all German warships at large in the Pacific and east of Suez except the Emden, whose repeated raids on British commerce in the Indian ocean have been so costly.
According to German accounts, their armored cruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisnau and the light cruisers Nurnberg, Leipzig and Bremen escaped unscathed, while the British cruiser Monmouth was sunk, the cruiser Good Hope put out of action and the cruiser Glasgow, with the transport Otranto, sent scurrying for shelter in the neutral port of Talcahuano, where they are bottled up by the Leipzig and Bremen.
A comparison of the strength of the British and German vessels shows that the total British tonnage was 28,720 and the German 32,636.
The Monmouth was built in 1900, the Good Hope in 1898 and the Glasgow, the newest of the British ships, in 1908.
American Minister Fletcher at Santiago, Chile, reported the arrival of three German warship at Valparaiso. The damaged Good Hope is reported as having escaped with the Glasgow and the transport Otranto.
The Gneisenau and the Nurnberg arrived safely though somewhat the worse for their encounter with the Britishers.
Despite the fact that the British had only three fighting ships as against five of the Germans, the decisive defeat of Rear Admiral Cradock's squadron appears to have produced a profound impression in London.
TWO STATES GRANT SUFFRAGE.
Missouri, Ohio, North and South Dakota Vote Against.
Chicago.—Woman suffrage leaders rejoiced when belated returns indicated that votes for women had been apparently granted in two of the seven states voting on the question in Tuesday's election. First returns had indicated defeat of the franchise to women in all seven states concerned. Montana and Nevada, according to the latest returns, granted votes to women. Returns in Nebraska on the woman suffrage amendment are still far from complete, but those compiled thus far indicate that it is defeated by 5,000 or more. Suffragists made an extraordinary campaign in this state and were opposed by anti-suffrage organizations of Nebraska women, the campaign being bitterly fought out until the polls closed. Missouri, Ohio and North and South Dakota refused to grant equal suffrage, the vote against granting the franchise to women increasing with the size of the population concerned.
Chicago Stockyards Closed.
Chicago, Nov. 5. — The Chicago Union stockyards, the largest cattle market in the world, which has been in continuous business since 1865, was ordered closed for several days because of the prevalence of the hoof and mouth disease among cattle. The closing order will go into effect at the close of business Friday, Nov. 6, and continue until the opening of business on the second Monday thereafter, or Nov. 16. This makes the cessation of business at the yards cover nine days, including Sundays.

War Taxes on Beer and Wine.
Denver.—The Denver internal revenue district will contribute approximately $200,000 in additional taxes on beer and wines under the provisions of the war revenue bill recently passed by Congress. Collector Mark Skinner has been engaged for several days in preparing for the sale of revenue stamps and a large number have been disposed of, as the law went into effect Oct. 23, the date of passage, by virtue of the emergency clause. This extra $200,000 a year will be only a part of the revenue the Denver district will pay into Uncle Sam's treasury to help relieve the government's financial difficulties created by the war. It is impossible to estimate the total yearly additional tax at this time, said Collector Skinner.

Ditches May Damage State Land.
Denver.—State Engineer Field, after a personal inspection of drainage work being done in the San Luis valley near Alamosa has found that some of the ditches being constructed there to drain swamp lands will turn their water flows upon state lands, making swamps of them. Failure by private companies doing the work to obtain engineering advice is the cause given by him for the situation. He believes that the outflow upon state land can be prevented and will consult Attorney General Farrar as to the best method to protect the state lands from injury.

The colored people of Wilson, N. C. have completed and opened for the reception of patients a splendidly equipped hospital. The building was erected at a cost of ten thousand dollars. Special attention will be given to the treatment of tubercular patients. What the colored people of this city of Wilson have done in this respect could be done in every city in the South. It shows what can be done with capable leadership. Dr. F. S. Hargrave of Wilson is the founder and leading spirit in the movement. He has been ably by Mr. S. H. Vick and Mr. J. D. Reid public spirited citizens who have the interest of the race at heart. The white citizens of Wilson contributed largely toward the cause.

MATCHED sets, in the millinery shops, mean three articles, at least, made up of the same materials and corresponding in style. A neckpiece, muff and hat, or a neckpiece, bag and hat, constitute the usual set of three pieces. Sometimes a fourpiece set includes all the accessories mentioned, but as a rule only three are made to correspond.
These matched sets employ fur, velvet, brocades, silk and fur-cloths (or plush) in their construction, and are embellished with passamenterie beads, silk and millinery flowers and fruits. Furs are combined with fabrics, or two kinds of fur may be made up together. Fur and velvet is a rich and popular association of material. Satin and fur-cloth is inexpensive and as beautiful as the more costly furs. Velvet alone and velvet embellished with passamenterie stands between the costlier furs and less costly plushes in point of price and are less durable than either, but utterly feminine and elegant.
A set of two furs combined in neckpiece and muff, worn with a small military turban, is shown in the picture. A flat neckpiece of fine Hudson seal supports a handsome fitch skin, one of the most fashionable of furs. The muff is barrel shaped with
A Few Good Kitchen Aprons

I
THE up-to-date kitchen apron is by no means an ungrateful garment, and much ingenuity is evident in designing it to meet all the requirements of housework and good looks at the same time. The new patterns, that cover the entire figure, look better and are far more practical than the aprons set on to a band, that preceded them. It is just about as easy to make aprons that protect the whole dress, cover the sleeves and stay in place, as to make those gathered to a band, and it is quite as easy to do them up.

Gingham, calico and percale are used, cut by plain kimono-sleeved patterns like that shown in the picture given here. Indigo blue and white, or black and white, are selected for permanency in color. Any number of patterns in figures and checks and stripes give one a wide choice in design.
Aprons made of these good substantial cotton fabrics having a white ground with, black stripes are great favorites for "cook-aprons." Shepherd's cheeks and polka dots figure among these also. For sweeping and dusting the indigo blue cottons with small white dots for figures are made up with caps to match and are better than the more readily soiled cottons with white ground for these purposes.
Turkey-red cotton fabrics are used for making bindings on the shepherd's checks more particularly but are liked on the dark blue aprons as

a fitch border at each end. Both are lined with plain brown satin.
The turban needs a border of fitch fur at the top of the velvet band, or a group of small animal heads of fitch or some other decorative touch of the fur, to match it up with the other pieces.
A velvet set in black is shown, with the velvet fulled on the barrel-shaped muff. Passementerie beads, tassels and buckle make a novel trimming.
In the plush and fur combination plush is used in the body of the pieces and fur in the decoration.
Circular Skirts.
Circular skirts may be the next thing on the calendar of dress. At any rate, they are a coming possibility. A circular that has already made its appearance is made of white taffeta. It is fitted at the hips and falls in wide ripples at the ankles.
Drecoll's Lace Gown.
In America there is little doubt that Drecoil's black lace gowns over satin will find much favor. He also brings out the inevitable suit of baby lamb; Paris is never able to get through the season without one such costume offered to the American buyer.

well. The red will not fade in the least with any amount of washing, and is therefore liked better than any other solid color. The apron pictured is an example of the use of this red binding on a medium large shepherd's check. The neck, sleeves, pocket and edges are bound with it. It brightens up the otherwise ordinary pattern and makes it really attractive.
Some aprons are made of the heavier cotton crepe in gray and finished with borders in solid colors or figures. These usually fasten in front and look very much like home dresses. They are not closed below the waist line and are easily slipped on and off. The front of the dress under them is protected because, in these patterns, the fronts overlap.
The new aprons are, in fact, so like house dresses that they may be worn instead of a dress. But they are made with ample sleeves, round necks and simple fastenings, so that they slip on over a dress easily. Sleeves are short and out of the way. Altogether, well chosen kitchen or work aprons may be said to be attractive in themselves. Certainly the neat housewife knows how to look very "fetching" in them.
