FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN WE COULD WISH THAT THE RACE PRACTICED THIS TWENTIETH YEAR WE COULD RA HOW A BRIGHT YOUNG NEGRO LADY EVENED UP WITH A DRUGGIST WHO DIDN'T SELL SODA WATER TO "DARKIES." (By Bruce Grit.) The place is Nashville, Tenn. Time, July, 1897. Dramatis Personnae, two young negro lady school teachers, a four-dollar-a-week drug clerk, white, and his employer, also white. Scene 1—Soda fountain in drug store, at which a number of "crackers" are quenching their insatiable thirst. The two negro ladles enter, and as they approach the "sacred fountain" there is a lull in the chatter of the "crackers" and fire in their eyes, which perceiving the ladies pass on to the next counter, where the proprietor, all smiles, greets them effusively and tries to bore a hole in their purses with Svengali optics. Scene 2—The ladies announce their intention of making many purchases for presents to friends and ask to be shown puff boxes, fancy mirrors, hair brushes, combs and many other expensive things to the value of $25. One of the ladies displays the contents of her wallet while getting her 'kerchief, and the sight of the yellow backs threw the proprietor into a mild spasm. Recovering instantly from his surprise at seeing a negro woman with so much good money, he tried to out-Chesterfield the courtly Lord Chesterfield himself in politeness and actually address them as "ladies." Scene 3—The ladies make their selection from the goods displayed for their inspection, and each purchase is carefully wrapped and laid aside. When all have been put up and made ready for transmission to the residence of these liberal customers one of them remembers something else she would like, and the article is tenderly removed from the show case and is made the subject of an eloquent and touching dissertation on its particular merit and value. His eloquence wins and the article is wrapped up and placed with the other purchases. Scene 4 - The ladies are now stand ing, one with forefinger gently touching her pretty mouth, the other with knitted brow, showing a mental struggle to remember some forgotten thing. One of them, taking a $50 bill from her purse, exclaimed exultingly: "Oh, I remember now, it was soda water, Bessie. Will you," addressing the proprietor, "give us two glasses of soda, one lemon; what's yours, Jennie?" "Pineapple," said Jennie. Scene 5—The store is crowded with country jays of both sexes. Cracker Bucks in Palmetto hats and home-spun cotton suits, gaunt and ungainly white girls with yellow hair, sallow complexions and high cheek bones. Their Lindsay dresses and Poke bonnets presented a strange contrast to the well-dressed and neat-appearing colored women, whose tailor-made suits and gay headgear make them objects of special notice in that company. "Yes, we want two glasses of soda," said one of them to the now paralyzed proprietor. He looked at the "crackers" a few feet distant and then answered in a tone loud enough for all to hear: "Sorry, but we don't sell soda water to darkies in this store." "In that case, then," replied one of the ladies, "you may put your goods back in your show case, we won't take them. We'll send North for what we want in your line," and with queenly strides they walked out, leaving the victim of his prejudice $25 poorer than he would have been had he possessed the courage to defy "the unwritten law" which keeps the South in the shackles more firmly than it kept its black slaves. CITY MINISTERS' UNION The Rev. J. G. Harris of Petersburg, Va., was a visitor to the Ministers' Union Tuesday morning. He spoke of his school work in his city. The Union passed resolutions endorsing his work and recommending him to the benevolent people of the city. The Union will rotate its meetings to the various churches beginning next Tuesday with the Central Baptist church. This will doubtless add to the general interest of the meetings. The Rev. A. M.

Alexander Poushkin, Writer of Many Poetical Tales and Tragedies, Was of Russian Noble Birth—"Eugene Onyegin" His Masterpiece. Alexander Sergejewitch Pwashkin, the Russian Negro poet, was born in the Schwarzhaus on the German street in Moscow on Ascension day, May (Russian calendar) 26, June 7, 1799. He was descended on his father's side from one of the oldest of the noble families of Russia. The ancestors of Pwashkin belong from Alexander Neuski, and several of the bearers of this name were signers of the proclamation which made Mikhail Feodorovitch Romanov czar. One of his ancestors figured prominently in Russia in the time of Boris Godunov. A strain of Negro blood ran through Pwashkin's veins from the maternal branch of the family. History relates that the Russian ambassador of Peter the Great to Constantinople brought back with him to S*. Petersburg a ten-year-old black boy, Prince Ibraham Hannibal, as a present to the czar. The czar became very much interested A ALEXANDER POUSHKIN. in the little Negro boy and sent him to Paris to be educated. This same Ibraham, known in history as Abraham Petrowitch, died in 1781, being eighty-seven years of age, a Russian landed proprietor and general in chief. One of his sons, Ivan Abramowitch, who died in 1801, was the founder of the city of Cherson. Another Abramowitch who died in 1803 was the fa- High Honor For Business Woman Households of Ruth Tender Magnificent Banquet to Mme. De Tuscano In Appreciation For Faithful Services Rendered the Order at New York. Among the Afro-American women of Greater New York who have worked their way up from the foot of the ladder in business, religious and secret society circles Mme. B. E. De Tuscano occupies an enviable position. Back in 1901, when the New York Women's Business club was doing effective work in helping young Afro-American women to perfect themselves in the dressmaking business, domestic science, music and art needlework, Mrs. De Tuscano was one of the foremost workers of that organization. Her own special line of business, however, is that of regalia making for secret societies and other organizations. She also makes banners for churches and Sunday schools. Her work has been highly commended and even sought by manufacturers of many years of experience, and today her name is sufficient guarantee for the best quality of workmanship. In secret societies Mrs. De Tuscano is better known as a true reformer and as one of the pioneer leaders in the Households of Ruth of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of New York. Many of the household circles give her the credit for their success in membership, finance and business management. She is an untiring worker in their ranks and never seems happier than when she is doing something for the promotion of the women who are members of this time honored auxiliary to the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. And what is true of her in this particular line of secret society work holds good in many others which prize her membership highly. In order to show their appreciation for the long and faithful services which Mrs. De Tuscano has rendered to them the various Households of Ruth of Greater New York recently tendered to her a complimentary banquet at the New Amsterdam Opera House, New York. While the banquet was given under the auspices of the Households of Ruth, members from other organizations and the public generally turned out en masse to testify their appreciation for the benefits which they have received from her wise council, helpful association, work of faith and labor of love in the common cause of humanity and racial uplift. The opera house was filled with friends and well wishers, who vied with each other in bestowing honor upon one to whom honor is due. Music was furnished by the New Amsterdam orchestra, and the banquet was served by the well known William E. Gross. The banquet without doubt was the most elaborate given to any individual by the combined members of a secret order in New York for many years. The executive committee which engineered the banquet was made up of Mrs. Sarah Hubbert, chairman; Mrs. Phoebe Green, vice chairman; Mrs. Rosa Goodrich, treasurer; Mrs. Sadie Garnett, assistant treasurer; Mrs. E. H. Tolliver, general secretary, and Mrs. Gillian Prattis, assistant sec- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. محمد حسین MME. B. E. DE TUSCANO. That the south is white man's country in the new Taft southern policy was demonstrated a few days ago when T. R. Dunham was appointed postmaster at Darlen, Ga. Negroes far outnumber whites in that town, and Negro postmasters have been the rule for years. The appointment is all the more significant as it is in the jurisdiction of the postmaster general, Mr. Hitchcock, formerly Republican national chairman, who is opposed to white rule in the south when it interferes with the keeping up of the "machine." The appointment was ordered by Mr. Taft personally. The boys' department of the Buxton (Ia.) Y. M. C. A. is one of the largest and best among the Afro-American associations. National Teachers to Meet. Asheville, N. C., has been selected by the National Teachers' association for the sixth annual session, which will convene there on Wednesday, June 23, for three days. There are fourteen states having state organizations which will charter special cars for their delegates. Other state delegates will travel in the regular way. More than a thousand delegates are expected to be in attendance. Farmer—What are you doing in my apple tree? Thief—Excuse me. I just fell off a balloon.—Fllegende Blatter. Professor Miller's Western Trip. Professor Kelly Miller, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Howard university, Washington, is on an extended speaking tour which will take him as far west as Denver. The trip will be a notable one from the fact that Professor Miller is booked to make a commencement address for the high school at Kansas City, Mo., Western university at Quindaro, Kan.; lecture at Kansas City, Mo., deliver commencement address as well as Y. M. C. A. lecture in Topeka, Kan.; lecture in Lawrence, Kan., Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo, Colo.; Omaha, Neb.; Des Moines, Ia.; Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Columbus. This trip will be completed in time to deliver the commencement address to the Baltimore high school June 18. Zealous Women WorkForY.M.C.A. Unique Entertainment Given by a Committee of Ladies For the Benefit of Carlton Avenue Branch (Brooklyn) Y. M. C. A. Appreciated. The entertainment which was given recently by a committee of ladies for the benefit of the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A., Brooklyn, N. Y., R. P. Hamlin secretary, was a most successful affair. One of the most interesting as well as amusing features of the program was the dramatization of "Mary and Her Lamb," in which Lillian C. Dodson, ten years of age, displayed unusual ability as a schoolmistress. The various striking poses of the wee tots drew forth rounds of applause from a most appreciative audience. The presentation of the drama of "Sleeping Beauty," with Mr. and Mrs. Harry B. Foster as king and queen, Louis Bruce as prince and Miss Minnie McKinney as sleeping beauty, was greatly enhanced by the beautiful cos- THE WEDDING OF MARY AND JOHN MRS. HARBY B. FOSTER. tumes of the fairies who pirouetted about and expressed keen enjoyment in the final realization of their prophecies. The fairy drill, which followed, was exceedingly well executed and showed carefulness of training. The wand drill by a group of boys and the Indian club drill by the young ladies demonstrated the advantages of athletic training. The grace and ease of the performers were remarked by many present. The artists assisting in the musical part of the program were Miss Elizabeth S. Delapierre and Miss PAGE. 10 Henrietta Hearsey, pianists; Misses Cockrane, vocalist; Miss Leila Thorne, reader, and little Marion Bruce, soloist, who captivated the audience by her dramatic rendition of "Better Be Good." The committee of arrangements, together with the hundred patronesses, is to be congratulated upon the presentation of one of the most unique and interesting programs ever given before a Brooklyn audience. Many requests have been made for its repetition at an early date. The program was in charge of Miss Mary A. Kearns of New York and Miss Fannie M. Perkins, assisted by A. MARJON BRUCE. Mrs. A. L. Brown. The committee of arrangements was as follows: Mrs. Alexander L. Brown, secretary; Mrs. Matthew B. Russell, treasurer; Mrs. George H. Harris, Mrs. Eugene Henderson, Mrs. Thomas P. Moseley, Mrs. Charles F. Murrow, Mrs. John S. Parsons, Mrs. Harry L. Foster, Mrs. Mary Hardy, Mrs. Robert L. Williams, Mrs. Nelson, Mrs. Frances Brown, Mrs. P. H. Quarles, Mrs. A. W. Wiley, Mrs. E. E. Gray, Miss Frances Braxton, Mrs. Edward L. Paulcon, Mrs. N. B. Dodson, Mrs. Hugh S. Newton, Mrs. Frederick S. Hunter, Mrs. Cora Proctor, Mrs. Fields M. Booker, Mrs. Mary E. Jackson, Mrs. M. J. Zeno, Mrs. Isatab J. Walker, Mrs. Laura G. Hall. Monument For Dunbar. Paul Laurence Dunbar, in whom the Negro race produced a true poet, is to have a worthy monument. On June 26, the anniversary of his birth, the memorial will be unveiled in the Woodlawn cemetery, Dayton, O. It will take the form of a granite bowlder, with a bronze tablet bearing a stanza from Dunbar's "Death Song." Many distinguished people will participate in the exercises. This deserved recognition of the poetical gifts of the Afro-American who sang the joys and sorrows of his race in lyrics of poignant pathos or frolicsome humor is a most creditable proceeding. Wants Supreme Court Decision. John W. Rowell, chief judge of the supreme court of Vermont, says: "I favor the adoption of some method that will bring before the supreme court in a way that will insure a decision the question of the constitutionality of the laws of the southern states disfranchising the Negro, and if held to be unconstitutional then I favor the reduction of the basis of representation of such state or states as provided by section 2, article 14, of the federal constitution and the enforcement of article 15."

IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE Of Louis Brown, Died June 2, 1903, Aged Three Months. Peaceful be thy silent slumber, Peaceful in thy grave so low; Thou no more wilt join our number, Thou no more our sorrows know.

In loving memory of our darling mamma, daughter and sister, Alma Lawrence-Clinkscale, who departed this life June 2, 1907: O, we miss thee; yes, we miss thee, But thy sorrows of life are o'er.

For five years Miss Buchanan was a student in Spelman Seminary, of Atlanta, Ga., one of the largest and best institutions for the exclusive training of colored young women and girls in America, and during that time finished from two courses, receiving her diploma from the missionary course in 1906 and from the teachers' professional course in 1908.

Rev. H. H. Jones preached a most interesting and help- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. ful sermon; Mr. John A. Baker acted as Master of Ceremonies; Mr. Richard Gaskin, Master of Reception. Both filled their offices with credit. The Search Light Club recently gave an entertainment which proved very successful, both socially and financially. Prizes were offered for the one selling the largest amount of supper tickets. The lucky contestants were the Misses Katheryn Turner and Lucie Smith. Miss Turner received as a reward for her labor a beautifu sofa pillow; Miss Smith was given a pair of pretty ear-rings. The entertainment was voted a grand success in every particular a sum of nearly one hundred dollars being realized. The president of the club, Mrs. J. E.

Presiding Elder Owens was in our city a few Sundays ago, and listened to reports from the A. M. E. Church and its different auxiliaries.

E. Church. All reports are intensely interesting and enjoyable time. THE SICK MADE WELL WITH MAGNETIC HEALING. A Magnetic Healer has arrived in the city, and invites the sick and afflicted to make no delay in calling to see him. Precious Life and Health can be Saved by this that would be Hopeless Under the Old Methods. The Nature of The Disease makes no Difference. It is no longer necessary to suffer the pangs of pain and disease, or die prematurely. The time is now at hand when it is as easy to get well as it is to get sick. Those who are suffering with Stomach Troubles, bad cases of Rheumatism, or any other Lingering Disease, take one treatment of Magnetic healing from the Healer and you shall be convinced that your disease and pains will be turned into health and joy. All this is simply the operation of natural law, and it is not half as wonderful as the fact that you can send your voice along a little wire for thousands of miles, yet no one doubts the telephone, or is astonished at what it accomplishes. Is it strange, then, that a new discovery should be made in the line of physical science as applied to the healing art. PROF. H. G. H. BUTLER. Q. J.

The grandmother, Ma- Tie Alexjewna, was a highly gifted woman, though unhappily married to Ossip, the son of Abraham Hannibal. She and the nurse of Alexander ex- erted considerable influence over him, especially the latter, who during this period of his life made him acquainted with the world of Russian folklore. The atmosphere of his home at that time was considerably French. Alex- ander’s father, Sergei Lwowitch (born 1771, died 1848, and the latter’s broth- er, Wassilli Lwowitch, who was known at the beginning of the century as “Poet Poushkin” and who died in 1830, were bright, witty men, especial- ly Wassilli, who was famed for his sparkling epigrams and light lyric pieces. We cannot in the limited space given us do more than to mention briefly some of the best poems and prose works of young Poushkin, His Poetical tales are spirited and full of dramatic power. Among the tragedies written by him may be mentioned “Boris Godunov” and “Eugene Onye- gin,” his masterpiece. Among the best of his short stories are “The Captain’s Daughter,” “The Undertaker,” ‘The Pistol Shot” and “The Queen of Spades.” A fine collection of his poems have been translated into English by Mr. Ivan Panin, one of which, “My Pedi- gree,” was written as a reply to a Bulgarian literary critic who disliked him and made an unpleasant allusion to his ancestry. The poem is too lengthy for insertion here, but we may say that the poet silenced his critic very effectively. Other poems are “The Bard,” “The Storm,” “Winter Even- ing,” “The Poet” and “My Monument.” In 1899 the one hundredth anniver- sary of the birth of Poushkin was cel- ebrated all over Russia. It was made a national holiday. The government issued souvenir postal cards illustrat- ing. scenes in the life of the poet, and the emperor ordered that an annual appropriation of 15,000 rubles be made by the government to establish a Poushkin scholarship. In 1880 a monu- ment was erected to his memory at Tver Barrier, Moscow, and the school children and literary and civic societies paid homage to his memory at this celebration by decking it with gar- lands of flowers. A great parade pre- ceded the exercises at the monument, which was participated in by the im- perial troops, citizens and students, and then followed orations by learned Russian scholars, the mayor of Mos cow and others. Poushkin was killed in a duel in 1887 with Baron George Heckeron d’Authes, the adopted son of the Dutch minister then resident at the court of St. Petersburg, who had married a sis- ter of Poushkin’s wife and who had aroused the poet’s jealousy by some at- tentions he paid to Mme. Natalie Poushkin, who waa a very beautiful woman. DEFENDS NEGRO RIGHTS. New York Congressman’s Brave Stand Not Forced by Patronage. Like a faint echo of neglected party campaign cries and of the forgotten eloquence of the stump is the bil) which was introduced by Congressman Bennet of New York some time ago providing for a reduction of represen- tation in states which have disfran- chisad the Negro.

SR RI is a small one. It falls upon dull ears, but it is a challenge nevertheless to all Republicans in executive and legis- lative station. Fortified though he may be by party platforms and party traditions, Mr. Bennet must know that in proposing this policy he defies presidential pow- er, never so great as it is today. He must know that in speeches in New York and in the south Mr. Taft has virtually approved the nullification of the fourteenth and fifteenth amend- ments. He must know that the presi- dent has openly announced that no Negroes shall be appointed to office in opposition to the wishes of the whites. He must know that of all the Repub lican officeholders and expectant office- holders he is the only cae who has had the courage to adhere to the pub- lished principles of his party. He must know that no important Republican newspaper will venture to support him. For these reasons the world hails Mr. Bennet as the last of the true Re- publicans, the sole survivor of the days when moral ideas prevailed, the one man not intimidated by power, not in- fluenced by patronage and not cor- rupted by ambition or by privilege. Others have been beguiled by expecta- tions of a break in the solid south, by office, by privilege and by tariff, and still others are naturally servile and trifling, but Mr. Bennet, alone among the hosts that draw their inspiration from Republican national conventions, stands stanch and true for the princi- ples that are written in the party book of faith, As real heroes are rare in public life, Mr. Bennet is entitled to more than passing notice. Surrounded by time servers and self seekers and over- shadowed by executive power which lightly sets aside platforms, seemingly nullifies law and revolutionizes party principles and practices, he cannot fall to become an object of increasing in- terest.—Boston Guardian.

Mr. Carnegie’s Conditional Gift Being Met by Atlanta Institution. At a recent meeting which was held at Mount Gilead Baptist church, New York, in the interest of Morris Brown college, Atlanta, Ga., the Rev. Richard D. Stinson, vice president of the col- lege, said that Mr. Andrew Carnegie had promised to give the institution $12,500 when it had obtained a spec- {fied subscription. The vice presi- dent told of the founding of the col- lege and said it was receiving support from the white people of Atlanta. About 1,000 pupils attend the institu- tion, but the attendance would be 2,500 if there were accommodations for them. The work of the college is to prepare each student for work in a useful trade. He said a continuance of the prog- ress of the Negro race must be along lines of character building, practical with regard to home life, a love for | honest toil and a cultivation of friend- ly relations in the community where | they live. “I do not believe,” he said, “that the Negro’s eternal salvation, so far as this world is concerned, rests in Wash- ington or in the legislative halts of the states, but in his capacity to win even his enemies to be his friends by worth of character.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS. The Downingtown Industrial and Agricultural school for the education and training of Negro youth in the various trades as well as in the higher branches of literary knowledge is located about two and a half miles from Downingtown, Pa. The school site has a farm of 110 acres of fertile land. Pennsylvania hall, the main building, which was erected by Negro mechanics and student helpers, is eighty-five feet long and fifty-five feet wide and is a credit to the thrift and industry of the management of this comparatively new school, which was founded about four years ago. In order to be of the best possible help to the students those who cannot pay cash for the year's tuition are allowed to work out half the amount in any trade suitable to their liking. At the commencement exercises which were held a few days ago many of the friends of the school were present and took great interest in the work so far accomplished by the students. The principal address was delivered by the Rev. Dr. J. B. Rendall, president of Lincoln university, Pennsylvania. The school was founded by John S. Tromer of Philadelphia, who is greatly interested in the young men and women of his race and especially those in Philadelphia, where he is well known. Mr. Tromer, who has been the moving spirit in the promotion of the school, has been ably assisted in raising the first $50,000 for the school by Dr. W. A. Creditt, pastor of the First African Baptist church of Philadelphia, who is also the principal of the school, and Mrs. Mary Tribitt of Philadelphia. Mrs. Tribitt has traveled extensively in many parts of the north and east in the interest of the school. The $50,000 already raised for the school was contributed by Afro-Americans. NEW YORK A.M.E. CONFERENCE Annual Meeting at Flushing Harmonious and Full of Interest. The closing session of the New York annual A. M. E. conference, which was recently held at Flushing, was largely attended and was devoted to spirited discussion. The final report by the secretary showed this to be one of the most prosperous years in the history of the conference and that the churches generally had met all their claims. Much credit was given Bishop Gains for what the ministers called the climax record of the conference. Under his leadership they said that the flag of African Methodism will be planted in every place in New York state where it is possible for a church to be organized. The Rev. H. B. Gantt, who had served the Nazarine Congregation al church two years and who during the past four months had been the pastor of St. John's A. M. E. church, was called before the conference and examined by Counselor F. F. Giles as to his Methodism. The Rev. Mr. Gantt said that when he got ready to leave the Methodist church he would give the bishop a year's notice. Counselor Giles said: "The great trouble with us is that we take men from every source they come, and they are not with us. I want to know what the Rev. Mr. Gantt is now. Is he a Methodist?" To this the Rev. Mr. Gantt declared himself a genuine Methodist, that his par- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. ents were Methodists and that he was born one. From among the brethren were heard, "Amen, that is what we want to hear." The bishop then requested the hymn, "Go Preach My Gospel," etc., to be sung to a good old Methodist tune, after which the appointments were read, as follows: Long Island District—Presiding elder, Dr. H. H. Pinckney; Bridge Street church, Dr. A. R. Cooper; St. James' mission, Rev. Thomas Chase; Far Rockaway, Rev. T. F. Salls; Amityville, Rev. G. R. Coverdale; Stapleton, Rev. John Cuff; Jamaica, Rev.

High Average by Students and Eight Graduates at Boydton (Va.) Institute. Boydton institute at Boydton, Va., is one of the oldest educational institutions for Afro-Americans in the upper tidewater sections of Virginia. It was started by the Rev. Dr. Charles D. Cullis of Boston, a Christian philanthropist and friend of the Negro race, nearly thirty years ago. It has prepared hundreds of young men and women as teachers and preachers, who have done a great work among their people in the rural districts. One of the leading business men of Boston is a former student of Boydton institute, while one of its graduates holds an editorial position in one of the largest newspaper syndicates in the United States at New York. The school year which closed recently was a very prosperous one in many ways. The students made a general high average in their studies. There were eight graduates at the commencement exercises. Mrs. Helen B. Sharpe, who has been with the school from its inception, is still filling the position of principal and maintains the highest respect of the faculty, students and the community. City Office Conferences. The best Negroes and the best whites of the south are getting together, not in open convention, with heated resolutions flying through the ambient, but in the seclusion of a convenient city office, the leaders of thought and morals are holding quiet race conferences and putting their heads together for the good of the whole people. Through the wholesome influence of these practical heart to heart talks the industrious Negro is being helped to secure a comfortable home, the criminal Negro is being suppressed and the ignorant ones are being educated. These are the brand of "race conferences" that do real good for all concerned.-Indianapolis Freeman. Young People's Chautauqua. The fourth annual meeting of the national Sunday school congress and Young People's Chautauqua will be held at Nashville, Tenn., commencing June 9. The sessions will be held in the Mount Olive Baptist church, and Dr. C. H. Clark will preside. Many Sunday school teachers and workers along other religious lines are expected to be in attendance. YOUNG CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS. How to Bind Home and Sunday School Worthy of Study. Whether in city or country, housed in its own magnificent building or pining in a dilapidated mountain shack, with thousands of children or with barely a baker's dozen, the Sunday school is today considered the strategic center of the great church militant. The Sunday schools of the United States alone are attended by about 11,500,000 pupils and 1,500,000 teachers. Given a voice in affairs of church or state, this would represent no mean influence. The latest statistics of the Sunday schools of the world show 22,739,323 little Christians working their way through the grades of Bible study, learning the needs of the mission field and being graduated into church membership. A. F. Gaylord of the Moody Bible Institute expresses it well in these words: "The work of the Sunday school is, in my judgment, one of the greatest in Christian activity. The rescue mission picks the man out of the mouth of the river, while the Sunday school gets him at the source." Speaking of the Sunday school and ```markdown ``` A YOUNG CHRISTIAN SOLDIER. the home, Frank L. Brown, who has written several books on Sunday school topics, says: "How to bind the home to the Sunday school and unify the two for the accomplishment of Divine purpose is a problem worthy of our serious thought. There is none more important. The Hebrew Sunday school emphasized and deepened the home teaching. Josephus gives us an account of graded Sunday schools eighty years before Christ. Attendance was compulsory. Teachers were appointed for every province and town. At fourteen the boy became the son of the law, took part in the discussions of the elders and was bound to the moral and ritual requirements of the law."

The next place of meeting will be Walsenburg. There was a class of eight persons confirmed at the Church of the Redeemer Sunday morning by Bishop Olmstead. This is a very large class and the first one at the church for some time. The audience was filled with friends and relatives of those joining. The ritualistic service and elaborate musical program, to say nothing of the beautiful picture which the class made in their white dresses and veils, will long be remembered by those present. The confirmation sermon was preached by the bishop and was a splendid address on the spiritual strength which comes to the true Christian to enable him to lead a life acceptable to God and in conformity with the faith he professes. Father Brown was the celebrant in the communion service. One cloud there was to darken the otherwise perfect day, and that was because the death of her brother just before the beginning of the service prevented Miss Betina Jackson from being present with the others of the class for confirmation. Rev. Harris of Petersburg, who was in attendance upon the Presbyterian Assembly, is remaining over a few days soliciting funds for his school. He says of it: "The school is duly incorporated under the laws of the state of Virginia. It was opened October 1, 1905, in a rented house of three small rooms with an enrollment of 48 pupils and two good teachers. There has been a regular increase in the interest of the school and its enrollment. The first session was closed May 1, 1906, with an enrollment of 84 pupils. The second session was closed May 1, 1907, with an enrollment of 109 pupils, and the third session was closed May 1, 1908, with an enrollment of 122 pupils. "Our aim is to give an opportunity to a pupil to earn an honorable living by some trade or industry, giving them such information and knowledge as will enable them to perform acceptably and in an intelligent manner, any and all domestic services required in the best families in the land, to inculcate a love of the domestic life, away from the great centers of population and their temptations, where he so often becomes worthless—and worse; to teach him that his happiness lies in a well ordered and will administered home, and to give him such education that, if he sees fit, he may go higher in the scale of learning, and do all things in the rear and love of God. There is no entrance examination, further than as to age and character, necessary to enter the school. The first year eight months' term we propose to give these boys and girls, aside from the sciences and arts of domestic training, the common English branches, they will be objects of the kitchen, dining room, pantry, laundry, parlor, bedroom, their study, use and arrangement."

Ford came to the city Thursday night. SADNESS FALLS UPON THE YOUTH OF DENVER. No one of the young men of Denver showed more promise of a useful life nor enjoyed a greater share of the good will of his fellows than Charles Jackson, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Jackson. He was a product of our city schools, finished in Colorado College at Colorado Springs, and in his last days a student at the Denver and Gross Medical College. His activity in the musical circles of the city, in society and his evident ambition to make the best use of his talents made him marked. But now he is gone. Death took him away Sunday morning after a lingering illness. He had undergone three operations, but in vain, and some form of cancer probably brought on by foot ball injuries while in Colorado College was too much for medical science. The funeral was held from the Church of the Redeemer Wednesday afternoon. The offerings of flowers were the most elaborate given for many a day and bore mute testimony to the friendships he had. The remains were laid to rest in Fairmount cemetery by Undertaker Gilmore. He is mourned by three brothers and sisters, and will linger in the memory of a host of friends as a splendid character. The parents, brother and sisters of Chas. Jackson wish to thank the friends who were so instant with kindness and sympathy with them in his death. Especially do they wish to thank the Colorado Springs people who came to be present at the funeral and those whose floral offerings did so much to soften the awful blow which they sustain in his loss. The choicest blessings of Heaven upon them all is their prayer. KELLY MILLER ALL THAT COULD BE WISHED. Lack of time prevents a proper review of the Kelly Miller lecture Tuesday evening at Shorter church. The audience knew of Prof. Miller as a deep student of the sciences, one whose knowledge of sociology had received the test. So much was expected of him and he fulfilled it all. No evening could have been fuller of the philosophy of living, no hour and one-half could have conveyed more of the truth concerning colored Americans. In manner he is pleasing, logical and forceful, rather than ornate and declamatory. The one thought that he drove home most convincingly was that merit wins, and the accident of it being found in a colored person in wise prevents its rewards being sure. With this accepted as a fact he argued that we could well leave the solution of the race problem to the future and LIVE NOW. DOING OUR BEST EACH DAY. The Howard Alumni and ex-students banqueted him at the home of Mrs. Falling after the lecture. DISTRICT CONFERENCE One of the most pleasant sessions of the Denver District Conference and Sunday School Convention ever held, was that which convened in Cripple Creek, May 25th, 26th and 27th. The Conference and Convention were held at Handy Chapel A. M. E. Church of which Rev. J. H. Brown is pastor, and it must be said to the credit of the pastor and his people that in every way they made very amiable hosts and hostesses. Presiding Elder Owens and the pastors, also District Supt., Mrs. E. F. Landor and the various delegates and Sunday School workers all co-operated in making their respective meetings successful, spiritually, intellectually and financially. Many very ex- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. cellent papers were read, and spiritual sermons preached. The closing session of the District Conference was held in Colorado Springs on Friday morning as the ministers were returning to their charges. This last session was a most unique one as it was held on the spot of ground donated by the late General Palmer as the site on which to erect a Preachers' Home for the aged and infirm ministers of the A. M. E. Church. This site is a very valuable piece of ground located just opposite a hospital being erected by the M. E. Church. Without a doubt this. Preachers Home project deserves to be taken up and largely fostered by the general church. Remember that the Masons' picnic is only a few weeks away. July 14 is the date and Bloomfield Park is the place. Never was in one night more active fun than on last Wednesday night at the Sunshine Club's entertainment at Shorter. It all happened during and was a part of the fair. Mr. Curtis Harris and company was among the best numbers on the program, which was as follows: Instrumental solo, Miss Marybelle Price; vocal solo, Miss Anna Peach, who appears in Boulder soon; duet, Mesdames Byrd and Fallings; komical sketch, by Curtis Harris, supported by Misses Thrashley and Eva Carter, Thelma Hudson and Dr. J. A. Harper; vocal solo, Mrs. Lillian Jones, and recitation by Miss Lillie Fisher. It was a night of well spent pleasure. Straighten Your Hair DEAR SIBS: I have used only one bottle of your pomade and now I would not be without it, for it makes my hair soft and straight and easy to comb and also starts a new growth. Mrs. W. K. WALKER Sibs.—Hannah Terry (Formerly known as Oxonised Ox Marrow) Fifty years of success has proved its merits.

Removes and prevents dandruff, invigorates the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off and gives it new life and vigor.

OO rE DRAUGHT THAT SAVED A CITY | en umaiions at spread malaria, a is to maki e. 8 Well Does Rothenburg Commemorate | in the “ine of oa | [ THE NEE the Heroic Act of Its Seif-Sacri- | into tropical countries where malaria ficing Burgomastef. is prevalent. x It was back in the Thirty Years’ war, it was in 1631, that the prin- cipal event in the history of the city took place; the principal event, in the judgment of every inhabitant. It is annually commemorated by a play, a pagegnt, in which all that happened in the course of the great day—the day of the Meister-trunk, the Master Drink—isrepresented by generals and counselors, soldiers and people, cos- tumed in character, in the streets, tn the market place, in the rathhaus, Robert Shackleton says, in Harper's. For the ferocious Tilly captured Rothenburg, and, enraged by his losses, declared that the town should be destroyed, the leading inhabitants slain, and the rest turned over to the soldiery. But women and children wailed lamentably as he rode to the rathhaus, and clung to his stirrup imploring mercy. And he flung them mercy with contempt. “Let the dogs live.” He said: “I will be merciful. None but the burgomaster and all the counselors of the town shall die.” He went into the great room of the rathhaus and called for wine and a frightened girl carried in a huge and brimming goblet—a goblet so huge that he burst into a great laugh. “Am I to drink this?” he said, holding it up. And the grim humor seized him. “If any man of Rothenburg will drink this at a single draught I will spare the city and spare every life!” There was a great silence, and then a formerburgomaster, a certain Nusch —his name is worthy of remem- brance—stepped intrepidly forward and took the goblet from Tilly’s hand. He drank, and the silence deepened as the foot of the goblet slowly rose in the air; he drank and drank till every drop was drained. Then he fell senseless to the floor. “Revive him!” sald Tilly; and Nusch came slowly back to life. Tilly was a good loser. “You have won,” he said, admiringly, as the man raised himself and looked around. Whereat Rothenburg’s hero could only gasp out with a touch of good old-fashioned humor even in such a presence: “I never — could — save — another town!” NATURAL ENEMY OF MOSQUITO Fish Known as “Millions” Relied On to Exterminate the Pest That Spreads Malaria. That the destruction of mosquitoes and the elimination of malaria should be brought about by the greedy ap- petite of any tribe of the piscatorial species, seems like a far-off and !m- probable dream, but such an ever is the hope and prophecy of meu who have been experimenting with a min- ute fresh water fish from Barbadoes, known as “millions” (Girardinus pectl- loides), a large number of which have reeently been presented to the zoo- logical gardens in London. " They are of special interest be- cause of their supposed action in preventing malaria. This disease is far less prevalent in Barbadoes than in other West Iudian islands, and it is claimed by many that this is due to the presence of “millions” in the fresh water pools. The little fish is very voracious and destroys large numbers of the larvae of mosquitoes that spread malaria. It is proposed to make experiments in the line of introducing this fish into tropical countries where malaria is prevalent. One of Twe Mysteries—The Circus. So long as the hearts of men con- tain one chamber which does not grow with them beyond childhood, so long as women bear children, the circus will live—which will be forever. The circus is immortal! The circus is an elusive thing; a clear-skied morning, and it is here, filled with boasting and noise, laugh- ing at our troubles from out of a Falstafian mirth. Then in the murk of night it sltps away again, as if it knew that we are but children and would be gone without farewells. ‘Rough men marshal it, grimy with its labor; rude are its jests and coarse its people seem at times; but down ander the crust of them and the dust of the world’s highway is that touch of ten- derness which no circus man has ever been without, since they grew wise and left the rest of us children still. There are two things in life which are full of magic and mystery—the circus and the sea. An Apology. Little Jim and Pat, the gardener, had been great pals, and when Pat went back to the “Ould Sod” to end his days, and slow-witted Dutch Jan took his place, Jim was a very un- happy kiddie. After sundry unsuc- cessful attempts to interest Jan in his small affairs he waxed wroth, and one morning his father heard a tempest in the garden, culminating in “Oh, Jan, you're such a fool!” Father took matters in hand at this point and an instant apology was next in order. Jim rebelled, but finally caimed his ruffled feelings and went to the ag- grieved gardener, more in sorrow than in anger, with: “Jan, I—I'm awf'lly sorry you're a fool.” Long Out ef the Sea. Mr. Gaynor, an Irishman celebrated for his good humor, was dining one Friday with a friend and fish was the only meat served. Gaynor was par. ticularly fond of haddock, and seated himself near a fine specimen. His ol- factory nerves, however, soon made him aware that the fish was not too fresh. He first lowered his mouth to ward the head of the fish, and then his ear, as if conversing with it. The woman of the house, perceiving his peculiar motions, asked him whether he wished anything. “Nothing,” replied Gaynor, “nothing at all, madam. I was merely asking this haddock whether he could give me any news of my friend, Capt. Mur- phy, who was drowned last Monday; but he tells me that he knows nothing of the matter, for he himself hasn't been to sea these three weeks."—Sun. day Magazine. Well 3,310 Feet Deep.

When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qual ities, all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on bald places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing was possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are be- ing 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.” We advise you to use only “PORO” Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind).

Thomas-Hazell is the prospective pastor of the People's Presbyterian Church. He has already been called by this church. He is an able young man of no mean ability. He is a graduate of Biddle University. He gave us the best in his storehouse. The collections doubled themselves Sunday of the previous Sunday and exceeded any offering of the past two months. This is a true indication of rapid growth. The stewards are able to keep a little balance in their treasury. The members are highly elated over this reawakening of the church. The Rev. R. J. Christmas of Brinkley, Ark., who has been attending the Presbyterian Assembly, preached a highly spiritual sermon Sunday night to a large audience. Rev. Christmas preached like a Methodist preacher of the Fire and the Holy Ghost type. He left a lasting impression upon the minds of his hearers. A surprise party led by Mrs. E. Rivers surprised and stormed the pastor last week. When the debris was cleared away the pastor and his wife found the dining room table ladened with good things. They can do this again and there will be no objections made. Mrs. Rivers was assisted by Mrs. Wilma Stafford and Mrs. Anna Bobo in the very worthy enterprise. Te Peanut Shower at the residence of Mrs. Anna Bobo was an entire success, notwithstanding the heavy down pour of rain that came in the early part of the evening. This entertainment was given for the benefit of the Parsonage Committee, who has so beautifully furnished the pastor's home. The Ladies' Aid Society is leaving no stone unturned in arranging for their Fair to be given in this month. There are a number of contestants out selling tickets competing for a handsome lunch cover. It is a beautiful piece of hand work and the one winning it will be handsomely rewarded for their efforts. Mrs. Mary G. Clinkscale is making an ideal president of the society. The Sunday School under the supervision of the energetic and faithful Superintendent Rice has begun to practice for their Children's Day program which will take place on the third Sunday in June. The day having been changed from the second Sunday because this is the occasion of the First Quarterly Conference. The Rev. J. J. Cabbell will be with us on this occasion. The Rev. J. G. Harris will preach at Scott's Sunday evening. Dr. Harris is an eloquent speaker and any one hearing him on this occasion will have no cause to regret it. PAGE. 8. Ms. ths .....$1.00 Three months ...$ .50 Colorado, as second class mailmatter. We are glad to report that Mr. Cornelius Rice, who has been confined to his bed for the past five weeks, is at his post of duty in the Sunday School to the delight of his many friends. Mr. Eli Burrell led the Epworth League meeting last Sunday evening in a way that was helpful to all. There was a large attendance of young people present. This society is growing in interest. You are cordially invited. The members of Scott's Chapel should subscribe for the Statesman and keep up with the doings of the various societies of the church, since they do not attend all of them. The editor has been very courteous in the matter of publishing our notes from time to time. Our race papers must be supported. They are the mouth piece of the race to commend noble actions and condemn ignoble ones. Mrs. Anna Bobo and Mrs. Passette Campbell entertained the Ladies' Aid Society to a delightful luncheon at its weekly meeting last Thursday. Dr. Bonner Revs. Christmas, Wallace, and Messrs. Frierson, Cox. Russell and Burton were present and spoke words of encouragement to the ladies who are covering themselves with glory in the way they are working for the Master. The Rev. J. A. Bonner thrilled his audience with rapture when he delivered a strong message upon the Purposes of Life. Dr. Bonner hails from the old North State. He is an able representative of his church. The Rev. T. H. Yun of Corea will speak at Scott's M. E. Church Sunday morning. Rev. Yun is a brilliant young man pursuing his theological course in this country with a view of returning to his native land and working among his own people. He is a local preacher in the Methodist Episcopal Church. WHEN YOU GO TO LEADVILLE You can get first-class rooms with Mrs. S. J. Motley at 206 West Sixth. street. First-class table board also.
