THE ANNUAL EXERCISES (From the Press Bureau.) Howard University held its annual commencement last Wednesday evening at the First Congregational church. This closed its fortieth year of great work and glorious achievement. It conferred degrees upon 107 young men and young women and sent them out into the world ready to meet the great problems of life and settle them for the good of humanity. The audience which greeted the students was one of the most representative that the nation can afford. There were representatives from all over the nation, leaders in the various avenues of life—in religion, in education, in the professions, in business and labor fields. They were there to welcome into the larger life those for whom they had labored so long and so arduously, to confer a blessing upon those who had had the courage to journey so great a distance into the higher fields of humanity. This graduating exercise was the most solemn, the most pathetic and the sublimest that the university has had in its forty years of achievement. First, because it marked the closing of an era, and second, because the graduating class was addressed by a man of God, who believes in the human race, in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. The program of the evening consisted of music by the Lyric orchestra, an invocation by Dr. Welch, pastor of the Methodist A. M. E. church of this city, and an address by Dr. S. Parks Cadman, the most eminent Congregational divine now living, who has charge of the leading Congregational church of Brooklyn, N. Y., and the presentation of diplomas and conferring of degrees by Dr. Wilbur P. FIVE CENTS A COPY UAL XERCISES Thirkield, president of the university, and a benediction by Bishop Tanner of the A. M. E. church. But the feature of the evening was the address by Dr. Cadman. He said among other things that the young men who were going out from the university should each in his own individual capacity become a leader; that the need was pressing for men of higher training; that the world's history taught the wisdom of this. He reviewed the history of civilization, gave credit to the colored race of which we form a part for the highest civilization of Egypt; pointed out why the sceptre of power passed from the Delta of the Nile and was borne upon the fleeting wings of the unceasing trend toward the light, upward to the realm of God; reminded the white races of the earth that nations like men have their day, stand for a time upon the center of the stage of human action, play their part, pass and die, leaving the field of activity to those who have greater wisdom and who conform to the dictates of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. He spoke of the nations of conquest, of the colonial policy of the British empire, how it has surpassed all others of the world, and then how this civilization has reached its highest point in the spirit of the American republic. Speaking of our own national duty and destiny, he declared that the nation which conquers another race, but cannot assimilate it is not worthy to rule. This is the crux, the force that binds, makes full and complete the manifest destiny of the American nation. He declared that the Colored man of America had every reason to hope; that the long years of discipline had prepared the race for great (Continued on page 5.) PAGE 10. TRINIDAD ITEMS.

Butler's Doubtful Compliment. The late Gen. Benjamin F. Eut told the following on himself: Several years after the war the general had occasion to visit Georgia, and from a town on the railroad took a two-seated ramshackle vehicle, driver by a typical southern darky, for his place of destination. The general entered into conversation with the driver, and learned that he was one of eleven boys, and that he had a twin brother. He asked the driver his name. "Abraham Lincoln Backus," was the answer. "A fine, noble name," said the general. The driver was quiet a moment, then suddenly said: "Wat yo' think dat twin brudder's name is?" "I have no idea," said the general. "His name is Benjamin F. Butler Backus." The general appreciated the compliment, and was thinking it over, when the driver added: "Boss, I was always glad dat I was born fust." Visions of the Verdict She was 49 if she was a day. He was 22. They were the only two occupants of one of the carriages of the Scotch express. "Are you a commercial traveler?" she asked suddenly. "Yes, madam, I am." "In what line, sir?" "Groceries, madam." "It is you, then, you horrid, horrid man! Aren't you ashamed of yourself to so annoy a lone woman passenger?" "I, madam? What do you mean?" "Oh, you base wretch. You know it is you that has been scattering samples of rice all over the floor to make people think we are a young married couple." Rev. Mr. Parkhurst Was Willing In Chelmsford, Mass., some thirty years ago, a candidate for the ministry was required to preach a sermon before a committee of clergymen chosen by the church. During the progress of the sermon by the candidate, one of the committee, the Rev. John Parkhurst, was seated with his face buried in his hands, apparently oblivious to everything. At the conclusion of the sermon, when the committee were discussing the qualifications of the aspirant, it was noticed that Mr. Parkhurst was conspicuously silent, and seemed disinclined to favor granting a license. Finally, after considerable discussion and criticism, one of the committee said: "Mr. Parkhurst, are you willing for Mr. E. to preach?" He slowly drawled his reply: "Why yes—if he can." His Fate Not Elijah's. The Rev. Cyrus Searles was blessed with a goodly portion of this world's goods. He lived in the suburbs and traveled to and from his church in an automobile. One Sabbath morning the assembling congregation was shocked by a loud explosion. A panic was imminent, but was averted, fortunately, by the trembling sexton, who rushed up on the pulplit platform and, with uplifted hand, demanded quiet. "Friends," said the aged church of officer, quivering with emotion, "be not frightened. Our dear pastor's chariot was gone up in fire, but I am pleased to inform you that, unlike Elijah of old, he did not go up with it." Wm. Williams. Wm. Williams.

One of the most interesting features of official life in St. Petersburg is the intricate system by which the czar's life is safeguarded. Since the tragic death of the Grand Duke Sergius the spy system has become more complicated than ever, until now there are whole regiments of officials and carefully picked men and women whose duty it is to guard the czar. These officials are scattered through the ministry of the interior, the secret police and the ministry of war. The inner circle of the system is the dreaded "third section" of the secret police—the men who are charged with the guardianship of the czar's person. These men are highly educated, are artists in disguise and possess extraordinary knowledge and power. High officials, nominally their superiors in rank, dread the vicinity of one of these men, lest their most innocent act—a call on a friend, a journey for health or pleasure—be construed into a sinister act demanding explanation.—Harper's Weekly. --- SENTENCE SERMONS.

The elite of the colored population of our city are looking forward to the reception and banquet to be given in honor of the two young people, Miss Eva Hopkins and Mr. Nolle Smith, who graduated from the Cheyenne high school Tuesday evening last. The reception is to be given by the Women's Search Light club. Never in the history of Cheyenne has its colored population had as just a cause to "feel themselves proud" as they did at the commencement exercises of the Cheyenne high school on Tuesday evening, May 29th. A great deal had been exptected of our graduates, Miss Hopkins and Mr. Smith, but they surpassed all of our fondest expectations. Miss Hopkins, clad in her graduating gown of soft clinging white and carrying armfuls of American beauty roses, was herself the sweetest rose of all. Miss Hopkins' graduating selection was a piano solo entitled, "Waltz Brilliante," and she astonished and delighted her hearers by her finished and brilliant execution. She was tremendously encored. We had several times enjoyed the privilege of listening to Mr. Smith's oratorical efforts, but never had he at his most brilliant moments, proved himself the orator that he is. Mr. Smith's subject was Benedict Arnold, Traitor, and in his able hands, he became almost a hero. Mr. Smith's stage presence was easy and self-possessed, his voice deep, full and rich, and from beginning to end he held his audience spell-bound. At the close the vast audience demonstrated their enjoyment and appreciation by furiously applauding. The gradulating exercises were held in the Capitol Avenue theater, which was crowded to its utmost capacity. Miss Hopkins and Mr. Smith were two of a large class numbering twenty-five. Their relatives and friends have every right to be proud of them and we predict for them a bright future. Sad indeed was the death of Mr. William Mitchell, which occurred at his home in this city, May 23rd. Mr. Mitchell had been failing for several months and as his illness was not thought to be serious, his death came as a shock and a surprise. Mr. Mitchell is survived by a widow, who has the sympathy of the entire community. The funeral services, conducted by Rev. F. P. Greenlee of the A. M. E. church, were very impressive; the floral offerings were numerous and very beautiful. Mrs. E. F. Landor, the superintendent of the Sunday school of the A. M. E. church, is, with the assistance of Miss Macie Smith, arranging for an elaborate program to be rendered at the church on Children's day. The evening service on that day will be in charge of the choir and a treat is anticipated. Miss Lena Hopkins, who has been attending school at Jefferson City, Mo., is expected home in a few days. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORAD. The members and friends of the A. M. E. church are looking forward with pleasure to the District Conference and Sunday School convention which is to be held in Cheyenne June 12th to 15th. No pains are being spared to make the convention a success in every particular, and all homes will be open to our visiting delegtaes. Mrs. M. Goodall, who has been ill for the past week is convalescing and able to be about. We are glad that Mrs. Stevens, who underwent a serious operation at St. John's hospital is in our midst again. A very enjoyable party was held at the home of Miss Bertie Larkins on last Friday evening. Among the young people present were the Misses Macie Smith, Lucie Smith, S. Katherine Thistle and Eva B. Hopkins; Messrs. Orlandor Gaskin, Simon Gaskin, Arthur Gray and Nolle Smith. Mr. and Mrs. D. B. Carpenter, who have resided in our city for several years, departed last week for their new home in Boise City, Idaho. Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter leave a host of friends in Cheyenne who regret their leave-taking and wish them joy and prosperity in their new location. Preparations are being made for a day's outing to Twin Lakes, etc., by a few of the colored citizens of Leadville. WOMEN'S CLUB NOTES. 1.

Works of English and American Writers Eagerty Read. It is but forty years since an English book was practically unknown in Japan, the only foreign literature studied was the Chinese, and the first foreign language to be taught in the schools was the Dutch. Now, while the English is the most common among the people and is studied by all high school pupils, German and French are favored generally by scholars and physicians. There is a foreign language school in Tokio, where almost all languages are taught, and, curiously enough, Russian is the favorite. The study of English literature in Japan is represented by Prof. Yuze Tsubouchi, who has translated into Japanese some of Shakespeare's plays—"Othello," "Macbeth" and "The Merchant of Venice." The most widely known English writer in Japan is Carlyle. All students of English literature in Japan read his works. Next to Carlyle comes Macaulay and the new Hauyaku, or translation style, was practically created by borrowing his language by the Minyushamen, a literary band in Tokio. Emerson is greatly admired and his writings have influenced many notable Japanese journalists of to-day. Mill and Herbert Spencer have also influenced the thought of modern Japan. Tennyson, Longfellow, Wordsworth, Byron and Milton are the most popular poets, and in fiction Irving, Thackeray and Dickens are best known. Bellamy's "Looking Backward" has been recently translated into Japanese. An Interview With Kruger. Poultney Bigelow attempted on one occasion to interview "Oom Paul" Kruger and met with about the same fate that many interviewers have had with the former president of the Boers. He found the old man in a very bad humor and could get only monosyllables in reply to his questions. He employed every art of the interviewer, but to no avail. Finally, despairing of getting any information of use to him by straight questioning, he determined to be diplomatic and approach Mr. Kruger from his family side. So he asked, very nonschalantly: "Is your wife entertaining this season?" Short and sharp came the gruff answer: "Not very." And the interview closed there.— New York Times. Teetotalers seem to be the vogue in Yale football circles. Capt. Rafferty of 1903 and Capt. Hogan of the 1904 team and Capt. Thomas Leonard Shevlin, last year's head of the eleven are all teetotalers. One declaration of peace in which Mr. Roosevelt had no hand was that where a good mother lately sent her six children to school in the morning and then declared with a sigh of comfort: "Now I'll have peace." The fog of love not only blinds the eye; it takes away the taste, so that a young fellow in love with a girl as ugly as a barrel of salt will, after she has eaten a dinner of boiled onions and parsnips, kiss her and swear that he can sip honeydew from her lips, and herein he discounts the honey-bee—Rev. Charles A. Crane in THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Effects of "Ron," a Native Beverage of Panama. It is said that during the construction of the Panama railroad for every lie laid a human life was given up, but that's is one of those romantic lies which everybody likes to read but few believe. There were, indeed, a great many deaths; some caused by legitimate disease and some by careless living, and many by drinking a native beverage called iron. This latter liquor is made from sugar-cane, and it is such a drink that a Scotch highball is pink lemonade alongside of it. Taken in small quantities, it prevents malaria, but taken in copius draughts, as some men use it, it produces life everlasting.—The National Christening a Railway. Engineers are, as a rule, sternly utilitarian, but there are occasions on which they indulge in sentimental practices. One of these occurred the other day on the completion of the first transcontinental railway in Africa. When the plate-laying gangs from Buluwayo and Salisbury, respectively, came within twenty chains of each other a telegram was sent to the contractors and engineers, who at once arrived on the scene. The rails were joined and two engines proceeded slowly toward each other from each side. Attached to the drawhead of the engine from Salisbury was a bottle of champagne and as the two engines met it was broken and the new railway was named in the orthodox manner. RAISING CATTLE IN WEST. New Refrigerator Car Built Up a Trade the Trust Ruined. "To produce beef that will stand refrigerating and long carrying," writes Mr. Rusell in the May installment of "The Greater Tree in the World" in Everybody's magazine, "cattle must be fed on food that contains certain flesh-making elements. In some parts of the country there grows what is called 'short grass,' which has all the required nutrition. But the supply of 'short grass' cattle is not sufficient. The only other food that will make the quality of beef requisite for refrigeration purposes is corn. Hence in the great corn belt of the west (Missouri, Iowa, southern Minnesota, South Dakota, eastern Nebraska, eastern Kansas) the practice came to be this: The farmer bought from the western ranges in western Nebraska and Colorado range cattle that had been matured on common grass, took them to his farm and fed them on corn for six or eight months. When they had been sufficiently 'finished' on corn they were shipped to be slaughtered. Subtle Poison of Java. The natives of Java have a natural poison to aid them in avenging themselves against their enemies. It is a strong fluid found in the bark of the vpas tree. The bark is over an inch thick and is very spongy. A drop of the fluid on the skin causes intense irritation. A private revenge is satisfied by hiding a cup of this fluid in the room of the enemy and then the avenger flees, for well he knows that by morning his victim will have crossed the high divide. The fluid produces stupor, which ends in death. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, Land Office at Denver, Colorado.

(Continued from page 1.) achievements; that it was receptive, has gifts, capacity, energy and is goaded by the spur of necessity, and will achieve a great place among the races of mankind. But yesterday he said the Japanese were looked upon with contempt, but today they are commanding the respect of the world. This same future awaits the colored man of America. In the language of Dr. Cadman, "Nations which merely conquer races and cannot assimilate them are not fit to rule, and ought to die." It is fair to say that the address was the sublimest plea for human brotherhood that has been made in many a long day at Howard University, and we were wholly pleased with the program. The conferring of degrees upon the graduates and presentation of diplomas by Dr. Thirkield was pleasantly done. Mr. Richard T. Greener received the degree of Doctor of Laws in token of his distinguished career as a statesman and scholar and diplomat. We were glad to see this, for he is one of our great men. One of the very significant features of the commencement was the oppressive silence which pervaded the audience when Dr. Thirkield went upon the rostrum. There was not the clap of a hand, not a cheer. Another significant attitude of the audience was observed when -Dr. Cadman paid a glowing tribute to Dr. Booker T. more eloquent than any language of which the human voice is capable. The effect of the silence was clearly visible upon the countenance of the great man and orator addressing the class, and he quickly changed his line of argument. We simply state the facts, behold and judge for yourselves. What does it mean, what was at work in the minds of those representatives of the best there is in the race from all over the nation? Howard University has come to the "Parting of the Ways." She was founded by the National Congress in 1867 for the "Education of youth in the Liberal Arts and Science." Her charter provided for the following departments: A Theological Department, a College Department—College of Arts and Sciences—a Law Department, a Medical Department, a Normal Department, a Preparatory Department and an Agricultural Depart- These departments were, and are, open to all races and all creeds that they might receive that preparation which the nation demanded for its own safety. But recent events mark the closing of an epoch, the beginning of a new dispensation, the ending of which will leave the institution founded by Charles Sumner and the men of his day a thing of memory. We know that men as great as Sumner are being declared unwise, they are being held up as men drafting a constitution too narrow to meet the needs of a great and growing nation; but as for us, we believe in the wisdom and statesmanship of Charles Sumner and the men of his day. The Great Sumner perceived that such an institution as Howard University was needed to meet a peculiar need, to train men and women to do a work which other men could not do. It was founded for the training of leaders. How well she has done this work, the Great God of Nations sees and manifests. For forty years she has been keeping the even tenor of her way, going on as Sumner, the greatest statesman since Hamilton, had planned, doing her work. Forty years of achievement unsurpassed and unrivalled in the history of civilization, with all of the contributions to humanity, with the work of the immortal Sumner, the chart and compass of the organic safeguards of the black man, end with the parting of the ways. But one question remains for the true men of my race and the white race. Wts the statesmanship of Sumner, the man who placed more laws upon the statute books than any man Amerisa has produced, a visionary, a short-sighted demagogue who knew not the destiny of man under republican institutions? If Sumner knew not what he did, if he was idle and careless, if the hand of the Almighty which guided him in the fifties and the sixties did not guide him aright, who among us can provide for our future? The test has come. Will you save Howard University, or will you let it perish before the onslaught of the theory of a different place being fixed for those who profit most within her walls? Who will read aright the signs of the times and provide against the evil day? We do not believe that any man can remain at the helm of Howard University whose purpose, according to present indications, is to debase and degrade her and repudiate the work of Charles Sumner and his co-workers. Shades of Bishop Haven defend us. The daily papers of Washington of last Thursday announced the appointment of several trustees of Howard University. They were Dr. Booker (Continued on page 13.)

The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good") or referred to "PORO."

The school vacation season has come bringing with it this year an unusually large number of graduates who must now begin the serious duties of life. For some the professions seem the most desirable line of work and they are fortunate for the way has been opened by the many good preparatory schools that are all over the country. For those to whom the farm or the workshop or mercantile lines hold out the greatest promise, much less must be said. Forty years of freedom still find strivers in these lines pioneers who must blaze their own way in a large degree. For them there are but few openings and they must be laboriously sought. In the great part, we must literally make brick without straw, that is trades must be learned before we can find places for work, we must open business places of our own and learn experience at our own cost. Worst of all our investments in the majority of cases are made from the savings of labor at unskilled trades and late in life. This makes our apprenticeship in business the harder and the time of profiting by it the shorter. Yet we must try. Mere complaining over difficulties is foolish. Right here we would stop to pay a tribute of thanks to big hearted Americans who give us a chance and to whom our color does not furnish excuse for forsaking the principle that every man is deserving of a chance to prove his worth. Scattered all over this country, in all kinds of pursuits, they are extending the helping hand, not as one would give to a beggar but are helping us to help ourselves. They are demanding our best endeavor and placing in our reach the means of bringing ourselves to standard. A case of this kind is right here in the city. Some days since Clements, the tailor whose place of business is at 1523 Sixteenth street, asked us that we send him a boy who would be willing to serve the necessary appren- PAGE 8. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. RMS. $1.00 Three months..... Colorado, as second class mailmaster. ticeship at tailoring and said that he would take him up through the various steps until he became a master workman. A boy is now at work and upon his industry and aptitude depends his success. Mr. Clements is entitled to consideration at our hands. One Negro walking into his establishment and saying that he had transferred his trade to him because of his friendly disposition to us, is worth more than a mouth full of praise. Let us get practical. Let us seize every opportunity and increase our chances by proper appreciation of the men and women who do give us a man's chance. Then will the graduate look out on the world hopefully and not be as now asking "After graduation, what?" GOOD INSURANCE. If you want accident and sick benefit insurance that is sure, take out with the Comonwealth. It pays while you are down (which no other sick benefit does) and pays for all diseases.

CHORAL SOCIETY NOTES. Mrs. J. H. P. Wesbrook will perform upon a Grand piano when she accompanies the Azalia Hackley Choral society in their rendition of the dramatic cantata "Belsbazzar," on July 30, at the Zion Bapalst church. This is the event of the season. The soloists have begun to get into their work and every practice shows a telling effect. Beginning with this week the society practiced twice a week, Mondays and Thursdays. Every practice shows nearly every one present and at his or her post. Mrs. Eliza Dishman was enthusiastically welcomed into the society after her long absence. Her remarks, criticisms and suggestionns were quite timely, interesting and helpful, as were the accompanist's. There is still some talk about an anniversary social to welcome the incoming officers after the election, which is near at hand. Everybody has been asking about the production of "Belsbazzar" and his "Mene, Mene, Takel Upharsin." Mrs. Kinney, together with her son and Mrs. Contee, will spend a few weeks in the mountains. They leave about the 10th inst. Raft Spider.
