Campbell A.M.E. CHURCH Trolley Ride Aug. 8 Tickets 25c & 15c EIGHTEENTH YEAR. AZALIA HACKLEY CHORAL CLUB When the audience heard the choral society render "Queen Esther" many thought, for local talent its perfectness in stage setting, in dramatic actions and in the musical portrayal of the different attitudes and circumstances of the ancient religious characters, could not be excelled. But, when at Zion Baptist church the Choral society rendered "Belshazzar" Tuesday night before a crowded congregation of music and art lovers, even the most skeptical was convinced of the great musical, dramatical, artistic and emotional power of Denver's Choral society, the foremost one in the far West. So earnestly did the members of the society play their part that upon several occasions the audience could no longer restrain themselves until they gave vent in hearty applause, demonstrating their intense approval of the act and sentiment shown. There were no delays, no balks in the scenery or in the actions of the players. Everything went off just like clockwork. Once or twice when the many voices were showing, with telling effect, the various musical shades of the combined society, the audience seemed to feel the musical impulse and catch the inspiration and show it by quietly assenting with involuntary nods and smiles. "Hall To Belshazzar, the King," the finale chorus, presented a spectacle too powerful to be told. The entire chorus had palms, hailing and welcoming the king, when they were making some very difficult interpretations of the many musical runs. So great was this last act that the audience verily stood upon their feet when the curtain dropped. For individual work the honors were evenly DENVER, COLO., FRIDAY AUGUST 2. 1907. deserved by all, yet one can see the great improvement of the society since its addition of many new, sweet and useful voices. To the accompanist, the stage directress and choral leaders too much praise can not be given and as shown Tuesday night their past efforts were thoroughly appreciated. Mr. Morgan Jackson did exceptionally well on that occasion. The people of Denver are certainly proud of their choral body and will long for another musical treat. DEATH OF MISS LULU DANIELS Miss Lulu Daniels, who died Sunday at her home on Arapahoe street of rheumatism of the heart, was buried Thursday afternoon from Shorter church, of which she was a member. The interment was at Fairmount cemetery. Rev. Dyett was the officiating minister. The deceased leaves a mother and two sisters to mourn her death, with a multitude of sympathizing friends. She was a lovable character, cultured, educated, industrious and entirely charming. She used to be a member of the choir of the church of which she was a member and was always a good worker. For a long time she has been employed as clerk in one of the drug stores and was the main support of her aged mother. The grim angel has removed from us a fair flower, and one that will be long remembered. Undertaker Gilmore was in charge of the funeral. The audience room was filled, even to the gallery and choir loft. Rev. Dyett was at his best and preached a most touching sermon on the life of the deceased. The funeral was sad, the more so because of the profuse floral offerings, which mutely protested against the stern summons of death. Mrs. Bell of Omaha, a sister, was present. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS ANNUAL SESSION Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week the Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias was in session in Pueblo with one of the most representative gatherings in its history assembled from all parts of the jurisdiction. After going over the work done for the past year and laying plans for the future, the grand body gave its commendation to the retiring administration by re-electing W, R. Brady of Pueblo as Grand Chancellor. H. B. Fox of Colorado Springs is Vice Grand Chancellor; H. Jones of Denver, Prelate; D. M. Tannyhill of Pueblo, Grand Keeper of Records and Seal; L. L.

The Western Negro Has All the Best of It From An Economical Point A comparison of the opportunities of the East and West for Negroes gives every reason for encouragement to those who have cast their lot west of the Missouri river. The great bulk of population lies east, it is true, the opportunity for business is the greater where the customers are at hand in great number, but in unity of aim and willingness to sacrifice for one anothers' good, the West is peerless and supreme.

Prof. Albert Ross Tells the Great Progress Made Along Educational Lines at That University. Prof. Albert Ross, director of the business course department of Western University, Quindaro, Kansas, is in Denver this week to talk with mothers and fathers who contemplate sending their sons or daughters off to school next fall. Speaking about the great improvement being made at Quindaro, Mr. Ross says: "Last winter the Kansas legislature appropriated $55,800 for our institution. This summer a new $10,000 building is being erected to contain a new blacksmithing and carriage and wagon making departments, a steam heating and electric lighting plant, and a steam laundry. It has twenty-one teachers, and 300 students will attend next year. Colorado will send down a larger number than ever before. Students are preparing to go next September from Pueblo, Trinidad, Cripple Creek, Colorado Springs, Boulder, Denver and Santa Fe, New Mexico. It has a concert band, an orchestra, a choral society, four literary societies and various religious and athletic clubs. The business department will have a class of young people at the National Negro Business League at Topeka, August 14-16, to demonstrate their ability as stenographers and typewriters. It has developed two young negro composers during the past year. One, a young lady whose composition has been published and is now on exhibition at Jamestown Exposition. Another, Denver's own Clyde Andrews, whose composition won second place at the Inter-State Literary Society at St. Joseph, Mo., last Christmas. --- SAW POOR EUGENIE JULIUS CHAMBERS WRITES OF DETHRONED EMPRESS. Once Beautiful Woman, with Her Son, at the Tomb of the Emperor—Now Alone in the World with Her Sad Memories. The most pathetic mental picture that has been developed in my mind for many a day is revived by a bried cablegram which described poor forgotten Eugenie, once Empress of the French, driving about Paris, unnoticed. She visited the Tulleries gardens, in which she and the then boy prince often took the air. No doubt she glanced at the side door of the Louvre, facing the Rue de Rivoli, through which she escaped—disguised as a servant and with the aid of Dentist Evans, an American. Poor old woman! She understands that the people, not the "royal" born, own France. It was a hard lesson, but members of other dynasties besides Napoleonic will learn it before long. Never shall I forget the only time I saw the dethroned Empress. It was in the fall of 1875, when taking a day's run down the London, Chatham & Dover railway to Rochester, whence I intended to drive to Gad's Hill House, the home of the late Charles Dickens. When the station "Chiselhurst" was called by the guard I remembered that the home of the widowed Empress and her son was near that place, and immediately left the train. Not a cab was to be had; and, obtaining directions from the station master, I started to walk. The way was about a mile, as I recall it, and the keeper of the lodge peremptorily refused to admit me to the park. I had to content myself with a view of the red brick villa far among the trees. It comes back to my mind as a stack of chimneys and dormer windows—a beautiful place, no doubt. Remembering that the deceased emperor had been buried at Chiselhurst church, I inquired the way thither. It wasn't far, directly up the main road from the house. In a few minutes I stood before the grave. As I was about to turn away a close carriage drove up to the curb and a young man helped out a slender woman in deep black. She approached the grave and the young man brought from the interior of the carriage a large bundle of cut flowers. I recognized the face of the ex-empress at once, as anybody might have done. Divining that the two mourners wished to be alone, I walked away and only glanced back once to see that the flowers had been placed upon the grave and that the beautiful woman was kneeling, with her tall, handsome son. The unfortunate prince was killed by a brawny Zulu in South Africa not many months afterward. To "poor Carlotta" we now must add "poor Eugenie.!"—Julius Chambers in Brooklyn Eagle. COMMONWEALTH LIFE.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. The Freemen Mining, Milling and Development Company of Colorado Springs, which has its offices in Room 1, McIntyre-Barnett block, and of which F. M. Roberts is secretary has the wonderful record of having disposed of the whole of the first block on shares which were put on the market at 5 cents. There were 50,000 in the block and a second lot is now offered, and though the price has been raised to 10 cents, 20,000 are already bargained for. This is a good company for the investor to keep watch on and a better one to put his money in. NOTIFY US AT ONCE.

Great is the butter-making of Siberia, and greater, says Mr. Turner, it is to become—a region that might supply half mankind with butter: "There are, however, peasants who, for one reason or another, refuse to sell their milk or to turn it into butter. The owner of a farm not far from the station of Tagai was asked by a Danish friend why he did not sell the milk from his 300 cows to the neighboring dairy. He replied that his grandfather and his father had not sold milk before him, and he saw no reason why he should do so; he was sure the Lord would not like it." Husband Sold at Auction. In the early eighties the writer was present at an inn in Cracow when a woman put up her husband to auction. She herself acted as auctioneer, while the lot to be disposed of—a strapping young fellow of not unprepossessing appearance, who was evidently not averse to the proceedings—sat on a stool at her feet. Bids came briskly, and the man was ultimately knocked down to a comely, in mature, widow, with whom he left the hostelry, evidently on the best of terms with himself and his purchaser—London Answers. Nature in Fit of Resentment. A British ironclad discovered a new island in the Mediterranean some years ago, and the captain planted a union jack on one of the volcanic peaks. Nature kicked against his appropriation of her property, and rather than let John Bull have the island she sank it under the sea. She started work with the volcanos, and after they had burned for a night the whole island, with its seething mass of lava disappeared with a deafening hiss under the waves. Mrs. Oelrichs a Financier. Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, the New York society light, has proved herself to be a woman of great business ability. In 1897 she revoked the power of attorney which she had given her husband to manage her business affairs and since that time has made $20,000,000. She is now in her own right worth about $30,000,000, most of which she has made by judicious investments in railroad shares. She is a daughter of the late Senator Fair of California, for a share of whose estate she had to fight. She was not received in New York's inner circle until after a struggle against Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish, Mrs. Ogden Goelet and other leaders. An Algerian Pompeii. "Under the title "Rome in Africa." Mrs. Aubrey le Blond has an illustrated article in "Good Words" on the Algerian Pompeil at Lambessa and Timgad. What we owe to Vesuvius in covering up the city of Pompeil and saving it from the gradual but complete destruction which all cities constantly inhabited and renewed must suffer, this we owe to the burning and forsaking of Timgad, which have left to us an entire town of the time of the Romans with its life and history plainly writ in stone. When the French government has completed its work of excavation it seems probable that Timgad will be the most perfect specimen of a Roman colonial city to which all travelers, interested in the life of two thousand years ago, will look for a magnificent lesson. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Hls Queer Way. Mr. Terwilliger was the busiest man in the neighborhood. He was always tinkering at something or other about his house. At one time it would be a device by which he could lower his window in the morning without getting out of bed. At another time it would be a system of weights and pulleys for managing his furnace in the basement from the floor above. He worked for weeks on a windmill designed for raising the water from his clistern to a tank on the roof of his house, and devoted an equal length of time to an automatic dumbwaiter connecting the pantry with the kitchen and dining room. "Why are you forever doing this sort of thing?" an inquisitive neighbor asked him one day. "To save labor, of course," said Mr. Terwilliger, surprised at so unnecessary a question.—Youth's Companion. Too Much for Her. Marguerite Watson was a small child, who, like many another, had the inconvenient habit of asking embarrassing questions before guests. When her mother had company to lunch and dinner it seemed to be her especial delight to comment on every unusual dish she saw on the table. One day Mrs. Watson, who lived in a small town, invited some friends to lunch. Wishing to have it particularly nice, she sent to the city for candles, fancy cakes and ices. Marguerite was allowed to come to the table on the sole condition that she should not speak of anything strange she saw. As soon as the little girl sat down her glance fell on some candled white grapes. For fully ten minutes her eyes were fixed on the bon-bon dish as if fascinated, but she said nothing. At last she could stand it no longer. "Mother," she suddenly burst out, "just tell me where you got them, and I'll never say another word!" Reclaim for a World. Take one man, a woman and a garden. Add an apple and a good fresh snake. Stir gently until the pot begins to boil, then drain off the apple and keep adding children. Simmer on a slow fire, then put on ice. Alternate between the two extremes, giving the whole a good, sound basting when needed, turning slowly in a proper space. Keep adding time until the mass is of the consistency of a mudple covered with ants. Multiply the inhabitants and garnish with villages, towns, cities and empires. Now introduce a little theology and enough devil sauce to spice. Keep adding battle, murder, sudden death and a good layer of cant. Put plenty of salt in the water and sprinkle with bad society. When your yorld is finished throw it in the fire and begin all over again.—Leesburg 'Buckeye. Feminine Logic. After the tea things had been cleared away the young wife came over and sat on hubby's knee, put her plump arms about his neck and kissed him half a dozen times. "Well, what is it now?" he queried. "A new dress, dear," she answered. "But don't you know that times are awfully hard just at present?" he queried. "Of course I do," she replied. That's why I want to give the poor dressmaker something to do."—Chicago News.

The latest incident in proof of this deplorable tendency comes from Cowes, where the king has a royal residence, Osborne house. Some repairs were to be made in the naval cadets' school near by and his majesty asked to be shown the plans. The architect sent with the drawing had a wart upon one side of his nose. This disfigurement caused his majesty great annoyance and he has demanded that the architect be removed from charge of the repairs. Everybody in London is laughing at the incident. Some of the comic papers have gone so far as to express regret at the delicate state of the king's health. To Erect $1,000,000 Cathedral. Archbishop John J.

A well-known player, whose forte is fomantic comedy, tells an amusing story in connection with the produc- tlou, some years ago, of an unsuccess ful comedy. This comedy was a dire failure, drawing but meager audi- ences. The record in this respect was reached when the curtain rose on @ Wednesday matinee in Brooklyn, with fifteen persons !n the house. In the front of the house there was but one occupant—a young girl in the second ‘row. In the first row of the balcony sat one young man. The play opened with a scene on the deck of a yacht, and as the lead ing man emerged from the cabin and gazed into the empty gulf before him, he spoke his first line: “The sea is purple; have you, too, noticed it?” | Whereupon the voice of the young man in the balcony responded: “1 don’t know about the young lady Jown stairs, but I can see it very plainly."—Harper’s Weekly.

Of the exiles he writes: "When I told a Siberian friend that I carried a revolver as a protection against wolves, I was promptly informed that I had much more reason to fear the human wolves I might encounter, and this, I found, was a general view of the case. About one-third of the criminal exiles escape all control. Armed with a stick, to which is attached a strong piece of cord or catgut, they will approach the unwary traveler from behind, throw the cord round his neck, and quietly strangle him by twisting the stick, to rob him at their leisure of whatever he may possess, or secure his passport in order to make their escape from the country." Does the Sun Set? "It ill becomes any of us to criticise lapses in grammar," says an authority, "when we all of us consent to and constantly make use of one such lapse ourselves. To speak of the 'setting sun' is wholly incorrect. You may set a book on a table or even set a son on a chair if he is big enough not to fall off, but what does the orb of day set, and where does it set? No, sir, queer as it may sound to ears grown accustomed to the universal form, the sun sits. If it sets anything why doesn't it raise something? If it shouldn't be the rising and the sitting sun, it should be the raising and the setting sun. Think it over, and when you get it arranged to your satisfaction, try to find out what you mean when you speak of a setting hem."—Philadelphia Record. Hla Idea of Tourists. Burton Holmes, the famous traveler, tells of an amusing incident that occurred during a recent trip through the Yellowstone park. It shows that the inhabitants of interesting places are apt to make a distinction between tourists and people who are traveling for business. "We were riding leisurely along the big, fine government road," said Mr. Holmes, "when at a sharp turn we met one of these 'inhabitants' coming toward us on muleback. We stopped and plied him with questions about the park for almost an hour, and as we turned to go he said: 'Ef I ain't too inquisitive, be you fellers goin' somewhar or air you jest a-travelin'?" Confinement Killa Indians. Of the fifteen long-term Indian prisoners now incarcerated in the United States penitentiary at McNiel's Island, in Puget Sound, twelve who have been there for less than three years are in the last stages of consumption, and none can live more than another year. All are under sentence from ten to twenty years. Warden O. P. Haligan, in discussing the situation, says: "From my experience with the Alaskan Indians and Eskimos doing terms in the institution, I am of the opinion that the majority of both races have hereditary tuberculosis and that the confinement develops it." Soldier's Medal for Professor. The sultan of Turkey has conferred on Prof. Herman V. Hilprecht of Philadelphia the Order of the Golden Lakkat. The order was founded by Abdul Hamid in 1890 and the degree is usually conferred upon victorious Turkish generals for "valor and loyalty." THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Five Cents for Fan Too Much for Millionaire. A lawyer in Nassau street whose office is across the way from where Russell Sage makes and remakes his millions started early for his train one day last summer. It was in the hot spell in July, and he took his time. When he reached Broadway and Cortlandt street he found, so he says, that Russell Sage was just ahead of him making his way with his usual nervous speed down toward the Sixth avenue "L." Mr. Sage, who usually looks as though no amount of heat or humidity could affect him, seemed, nevertheless, to feel the temperature, and just as he reached the elevated railroad stairs the lawyer passed him. "Uncle" Russell was just about addressing the vender of palm-leaf fans. "I want a fan," said Mr. Sage. "How much?" He thrust his hand into his pocket and waited for the reply. "Five cents aplece," returned the vender. "Uncle" Russell hastily withdrew his hand from his trousers pocket, but there was no coin in it. He held up two fingers. "Two for five." he said. The vender shook his head. "Fl' cents," he reiterated. But Mr. Sage was adamant. He departed, climbing the stairs, and as he went he said: "Over in Nassau street they're two for five."—New York Tribune. Amusing Announcement The decision of the directors of the theater at Halle, in Germany, to distinguish by means of red and white advertising posters between plays that are fit for young persons to witness and those that are not, is causing some amusement. A Punster's End. Thomas Hood died composing—and that, a humorous poem. He is to have remarked that he was out of charity to the under- who wished to "urn a lively Hood." Happy is the man who can forget all the mean things he knows about Method In His Deafness. "I am convinced," said the colonel, as his caller departed, "that there is method in deafness. That man is deaf, so much so that it is a nuisance to carry on conversation with him. But I wanted to see him about a certain matter in which he, as an Oxford graduate, is better informed than I am. As we passed through the hotel toward the smoking room I said: 'It's a cola.' "'Thanks. old man,' he replied, 'don't mind taking a cocktail, but I'll have a Manhattan. Whisky is too rough.' "That chap went through our business talk without a hitch. He seemed particularly keen when a few dollars loomed up for him. He never missed a point. Meanwhile I ordered another round, and talked a bit with him about his college days. 'I suppose,' I said, 'that you are Charter House?' "Well, it is rather early in the day for chartreuse,' he replied, 'but since you've been so kind I'll have to go you.'"—New York Press. 1 CENT IS ALLOWED to write for showing the BICYCLES.

Ford's Hair Pomade was formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" and is the only safe preparation known to us that makes kinky or curly hair straight, as shown above. Its use makes the most stub- born, harsh, kinky or curly hair soft, pliable and easy to comb. These results may be obtained from one treatment; 2 to 4 bottles are usually sufficient for a year. The use of Ford's Hair Pomade removes and prevents dandruff, relieves itching, invigorates the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives it new life and vigor. Being elegantly perfumed and harmless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade has been made and sold continuously since about 1858, and label, "OZONIZED OX MARROW," was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1857. Be sure to get Ford's as its use makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT and PLIABLE. Beware of imitations. Remember that Ford's Hair Pomade is put up only in 80 cts. size, and is made only in Chicago and by us. The genuine has the signature, Charles Ford, Prest. on each package. Refuse all others. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by drugrists and dealers. If your drugrist or dealer can not supply you, he can get it for you from his jobber or wholesale dealer or send us 50 cts. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.40 for three bottles or $2.50 for six bottles, express paid.

After a swing around the circle the happy couple had settled down in a cozy flat. One morning as she took her customary place at the breakfast table the bride placed a large revolver by the side of her plate. "W-why, my dear," stammered the astonished husband, "w-what does that mean?" "It means, George," replied her bridelets, "that we have biscuits of my own construction for breakfast and that no adverse criticism will be tolerated." Sioux Descended from Japs. Dr. Charles A. Eastman, our civilized aborigine-American fellow-citizen from Amherst, Mass., told a Detroit audience that the Sioux tribe undoubtedly were descended from the Japanese. The names of many of the Japanese battleships are, he said, practically Sioux names so little changed as readily to be recognized. In connection with the theory it is interesting to recall that a member of another tribe of North American Indians is said to have found in the Philippine colony at the St. Louis exposition representatives of one of the savage races of the archipelago whose language he understood with little difficulty.—Detroit Journal. Walking a Lost Art. The elevator and the street car are doing damage to man's anatomy. Every elevator boy can tell of instances where a man will push the electric button till it rings like a general fire alarm, call the elevator from the basement, get in at the seventh floor and as the car begins to drop shout "sixth!" There are busy men who will wait ten minutes for a street car to ride on block. As for long walks in the country and the exploration of fields and woods, why, perish the pernicious thought! On Sunday, after a week cooped up in the office or the shop, a man must spend his week's earnings fo ra buggy or an auto. Even the tramp would rather steal a ride on the truck of a freight car than be true to his name. People ought to walk more for recreation. It is a fine way of seeing the near-by country. It is exercise that gives strength to the body and the brain.—Washington Star. Shock to Physiognomists. Dr. Barnardo, the great London child saver, was once discussing crime and criminals with a Scotland Yard expert and expressed his disbelief in the theories of heredity and criminal physiognomy. He produced two photographs of two well-known men and showed the faces only to the expert. "One,' he said, "is that of a once notorious criminal and the other is that of a notably good man. Tell me which is which." Without hesitation the expert designated one of the photographs as that of the notorious criminal. Dr. Barnardo was triumphant. The expert criminologist had chosen the photograph of an archbishop of Canterbury. Why Russia Delays. A St. Petersburg newspaper states that the only reason the reconstruction of the Russian fleet has not been begun yet is that the government has not decided whether to use turbine engines or not.

Dear Brethren—We have been in a four years' march and will soon reach headquarters, make our report and await the orders of the church. Our journey has been pleasant, here and there overshadowed by flying clouds, but we have not made it with unbroken ranks. As in every other campaign we have seen the faithful fall, yet we have gone forward in the strength of our cause and with faith in God from one conquest to another, never fainting or wavering. Spiritual Work. The primary duty of the church is the salvation of souls. On that line God has given us wonderful success each year, our ministers seemed to be imbued with the spirit of revival, and we have received the signal of His approval in many instances, so that the numerical strength of His kingdom has been largely increased in the Fifth Episcopal District. We give God the glory. Material Growth. Materially we have been equally blessed; new churches have been built, old ones remodeled, comfortable and tasty parsonages erected, and the temporal economy of the church so improved that the work has been put upon a firmer and more permanent basis. No general interest has been neglected; on the contrary, there has been an increase in every department, not by spasmodic effort, but by a gradual and systematic growth in liberality and willingness to contribute to God's cause on the part of both pastor and people. Dollar Money. The Dollar Money System of the A. M. E. church is generally considered be the best financial plan in Methodism. Through it we pay the salaries of the bishops, general officers, and assist missionary, church extension, publication and educational departments. In addition to this, it also assists superannuated preachers who have not received their allowance, and widows and orphans of pastors. With reference to the Church Extension department, it is well to remember that several of the churches in our district have received substantial ad therefrom by donation or loan; and in several cases the loan has been unusually large, owing to disaster or special emergencies. Spurred on by these considerations in addition to the promptings of church loyalty, we ought to make a reasonable increase in our dollar money collections over 1906, and I THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD urge you to do so. The presiding elders in council decided that an increase of 10 per cent. is a reasonable request. I am confident that you will regard this request and come up to it. Sensation Fund. You will remember that the traveling expenses of the General Conference delegates are to be paid by their respective Annual Conferences from moneys coming from the several charges. You are therefore advised to raise the amount assessed to you by the last session of our Conference for traveling and sustenation fund and report the same at the next convention thereof. The Forward Look. And now we come to the last appeal from the Quadrennium. Dr. H. B. Parks, Secretary of Missions, informs us that on Easter Day our collections for 1907 have excelled all previous ones in our district. The returns for Children's Day has not been reported by Drs. Chappelle and Watson. However, I must believe that you have made the usual record in these departments. The second Sunday in August has been decided upon as Educational Day and to make a special effort for Western University. Bishop Tyree and the Tenth Episcopal District are making an effort to raise $10,000 for Paul Quinn College, $4,800 of which they have in hand already. Bishop Coppin informs me that at the last commencement at Allen University, Columbia, S. C., there was placed upon the table $5,000. Bishop Turner says that the men of Georgia collected for Morris Brown College $3,800. Bishop Salter states that the men of Mississippi raised for Campbell College $2,300. The men of the Fifth District cannot afford to be behind. I am sure that Western University lies near your hearts, and I believe you are willing to make one strong effort to raise $2,500 on Educational Day. This can be done if you will increase your educational collections a few dollars. Send your offering to Rev. A. M. Ward, 1026 Tauromee Street, Kansas City, Kansas. Praying the continued blessings of our Heavenly Father upon you and all committed to your care, I am, yours faithfully, A. GRANT. EVERYBODY GO THIS TIME. Campbell A. M.

Mr. Henry Robinson of Kentucky is in the city and will remain permanently. Mr. Barge Osborn of Chicago will leave about August 7th for a two weeks' visit with friends and relatives in Denver, Colo. Mr. Osborn was formerly a resident of Denver. John Howard, colored, and the man that did all he could in the city of Chicago in 1877 to oppose and retard colored people in trying to have the Civil Rights Bill to become a law in the state of Illinois, which gives to the colored people in this state all the rights and privileges before the law, the same that is now given to white people, is now arrested and in the Cook county jail, Chicago, on the charge of murdering Mrs. Mary Churchill. This is the same John Howard that kept a saloon in Chicago a number of years ago. The colored people in Chicago are very much astonished and surprised to think that the colored ministers on the Baptist convention that lately met in New Orleans, La., should have given their sanction and approval to any kind of a scheme that is engineered and directed by one William Gray of Chicago, who claims to be a minister of a Baptist church in Chicago. We are unable to find the church in the city of Chicago that he has charge of. The scheme of one Rev. William Gray is that he is attempting to collect money for building a home for aged colored Baptist ministers at Braidwood, Illinois, which is about 40 miles from Chicago. This is the same Rev. William Gray that has drifted around from place to place and a short time ago was compelled to leave Evanston, Ill., under the most unfavorable circumstances. This is the same Rev. Wm. Gray who was lately expelled from the Masonic fraternity in the state of Illinois. Mr. William M. Farmer, Mr. Hale G. Parker, Mr. John G. Jones, Mr. W. W. Johnson, and several leading Republicans throughout the country have issued a call for a national conference of the colored Republicans to meet at Buffalo, N. Y., on the 14th of January, 1908, for the purpose of considering the best interest of the colored men in the next national campaign and also to appoint a committee to attend the National Republican convention.

Redd and Miss Baker were the guests of Mrs. Silas Jones and daughter, Mrs. Brown, on Saturday. Sergeant Thomas Allsup showed his ability as a first-class cook in preparing and cooking himself a dinner in honor of Mrs. H. E. Redd and Miss Baker of the Falls and Mr. and Mrs. Gaillard on Wednesday. The dinner was enjoyed very much. Mrs. N. Jackson and Mrs. Jones went out to the fort on Wednesday. The literary was graced with the presence of Sergeant Rose of the hospital corps of Fort Assinnibone. Mrs. H. E. Redd, missionary, is doing a good work in Havre.

ELEVENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION The Eleventh Annual Session of the Western Negro Press Association will meet at Topeka, Kansas, Monday and Tuesday, August 12th and 13th, 1907. To the Press: Pursuant to the regular appointment under the provisions of the Constitution, the Western Negro Press Association of the United States, is hereby called to convene at Topeka, Kansas, in its Eleventh Annual Session, Monday and Tuesday, August 12th and 13th, 1907. All proprietors, editors, managers, reporters and correspondents west of the Mississippi river are eligible to membership in the Association and are urged to be there. We cordially extend an invitation to members of the fraternity throughout the country to meet with us in Topeka, Kas., to consider those questions so vital to the welfare of the race of this country. Recent developments, such as the Brownsville affair, Tillman's lectures against us, The Clansman by Dixon, and the publication of books and magazine articles with the avowed purpose of creating sentiment against us, show the need of action on the part of intelligent and thoughtful members of the race, and the press must undoubtedly take the lead. We would again urge upon every paper and its entire staff to make this meeting a personal matter, in order to secure a large and enthusiastic gathering. The executive committee:—Nick Chiles of Topeka, Kas., chairman; W. H. Twine, corresponding secretary of Muskogee, I. T., will apprise all western railroads of the convention and will request them to extend courtesales to the members and publishers of the craft. W. H. DUNCAN, President. D. B.

The interesting fact about this is that Mr. Locke is the young colored man who recently carried off the Rhodes Schol- arship from Pennsylvania over a num- ber of competitors. The Bowdoin prize is the most important bestowed at Harvard. This, we are inclined to think, shows conclusively that My Locke has “forgotten his place.” It is trying enough to have him beat our white boys for the honor of going to Oxford; but that he should now carry off the Bowdoin prize by an essay on Tennyson of really unusual literary merit, will be regarded in some cir- cles, we fear, as seriously threaten- ing the foundations of our Anglo- Saxon civilization. It is really very cruel of Mr. Locke. True he has two generations of educated parents be- hind him, but this is no excuse. Has it not been proclaimed from a thou- gand housetops and sanctums that the Negro is a beast, incapable of high intellectual development? We very much fear that the negroes are as de- termined not to stay in the places as- signed them by their mental superiors as are those women who refuse to recognize that church, cookery and children should forever limit their in- tellectual activities—New York Eve ning Post.

F. of Colorado and Her Jurisdiction: I. Wm. R. Rhodes, S. G. M., received of Mrs. M. E. Riley, the former secretary of state, a letter asking that she might have a conference with me respecting Christian training and age, too. I made it possible to call at her residence and found her much wrought up over a statement made to her by a special and antagonistic committee to the progress of our work in the state, subrosa to the S. G. M., saying that I was the author of said statement. Such statement as she made known to me I deny. I am willing and ready to repeat, first to my state executive board and then to the National executive board, the very statement I made regarding my ex-secretary of state. I wish to state further, that the origin of this malicious attack was founded in setting up Temple No. 6, S. M. T., Colorado Springs. PROMPTNESS IN PAYING Commonwealth Life, City.

A father and mother, with six children, paid a visit to the seaside. Wishing to spend a few days there they set about looking for cheap lodgings. At length they came to a notice of a "furnished room to let," and made inquiries. "Oh, yes," said the landlady, in answer to the father's question; "it's here the room is to let, but there's only one bed in it." "Oh, that's all right," replied the father; "we're used to roughing it. The wife and bairns'll sleep on the door." A New Definition. Former Mayor Patrick Collins of Boston told this one as the Irish cab driver had narrated it to him in Dublin. Cabby took "a fare" out into the country one night. The gentleman paid him well, and told him to "look under the seat." There cabby found a quart bottle of pure Irish whisky, and he sampled it immediately. He also gave some to the horse, who seemed to like it. Telling the story cabby said: "Afther I'd been givin' av th' baste on'y foor or foive dhrinks he got gay; he did. Th' first thing Oi knowed Oi wor in th' shafts pullin' th' keb, an' th' baste wor up in th' sate lashin' me wid th' whip, makin' me pull harro an' dance." "Well, what was the result?" inquired Mr. Collins. "Oi've niver give th' baste another drop fr'm that day till this." "Yes, but what was the result that night? You were drunk, of course." "No, Oi'll not lie about it. Oi wor not intoirely sober." "If neither drunk nor sober, what was your condition?" "Oi wor on th' defensive"—Pittsburg Dispatch. Showing His Friendship. At the annual business meeting of a country church in the western part of the state several of the brethren spoke of the annoyance caused at the Sunday services by the habit in which some persons indulged of spitting upon the floor, especially in the neighborhood of the stove. The pastor suggested that if they had a couple of cuspidors in the church perhaps the annoyance might be lessened. Whereupon a good deacon arose: "I move that Brother A. and Brother B. be appointed as cuspidors for the ensuing year."—Philadelphia Ledger Really Man's Superior. "Many a woman in her secret soul knows that, although she may be different from her husband and inferior in matters of secondary importance, yet she is as good a being as he is, and, perhaps, in the nobler traits of character, really his superior. Still all she has to submit to his domination on the false and hollow supposition of her inferiority. Occasionally the husband will excell the wife intellectually, but this does not prove her to be an inferior being. On the contrary," says Gen. Booth, "go back to the beginning of her life, and she will not be far behind him, even if she is not fully his equal in this respect.
