FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN A BIG TREAT FOR DENVER TWENTIETH YEAR A BIO FO Booker T. Washington has come and gone. He was feasted and toasted, his public appearances were the occasions of tremendous enthusiasm and his advice has created in many a desire for greater things. From the hour of his arrival when he was met by Bishop Abram Grant, who was sponsor for his trip west, Rev. Ward and J. W. Jackson, till his departure the next evening, escorted to the station by the same gentlemen, he had not an idle moment, and through it all his tremendous personality made those who met and heard him feel that Denver was privileged to entertain him. Ten years have elapsed since his last visit to this city and the achievements of these years doubtless added much to the popular appreciation of his visit. Yet stripped of his record, it would still be an occasion extraordinary to hear a speaker of so much power call upon his race to step up to the highest plane of usefulness. Rich with wisdom, subtle in its play upon the heart strings, forceful in illustrations, the subject, "How the Negroes of the North can Help the Negroes in the South," was handled with a master hand. Few men of the technical knowledge and business acumen of Mr. Washington are also gifted with the power of speaking. By the very earnestness of his appeal, by the outpouring of his soul for the uplift of his people, he swayed the 1,500 hearers at the People's Tabernacle and applause unstinted interrupted him again and again. It is needless to attempt to recount his address. Suffice it to say that it was a call for common sense living, earnest working, striving for the highest character and usefulness. He attacked no one, but mercilessly flayed the improvident, the dreamer, the trouble maker, at the same time showing how far such a one misses the thing for which he claims to strive. It was a feat in itself to please such a composite audience, and nothing short of the absolute frankness and honesty of the speaker would have done so. The address occupied nearly two hours and at the close the expression was universal that he could have continued with profit and satisfaction to the hearers. The introductory remarks made by Bishop Abraham Grant were pointed and gave the proper impression for the address itself to count most. An impressive prayer by Rev. D. E. Over, congregational singing and songs by the Y. M. C. A. Glee Club completed such an evening as is rarely known. --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY NOVEMBER 5 1909 The audience then as with one impulse forced upon the distinguished guest an impromptu levee. At its close seventy-five gentlemen in response to an invitation of the Tuskegee alumni assembled in the lecture room of Shorter Church where a banquet was held. A. G. Fallings acter as toastmaster. Toasts were responded to by Thomas Campbell, C. A. Franklin, J. H. P. Westbrook, J. H. Stuart, J. W. Jackson and the guest of honor. Dr. Booker T. Washington was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. L. S. McWilliams at 9 o'clock breakfast, Tuesday morning, Nov. 2, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Morrison at 834 Fox street. The novel decorations were novelly displayed, the dining room being decorated with the Tuskegee school colors. The parlor was decorated with ferns and carnations, while the reception hall was decorated with green. Just before the guest proceeded to the dining room, Mr. McWilliams sang a solo. While dining, Miss Marybell Price delightfully entertained with rich soft music. Mrs. McWilliams, assisted by Mrs. Morrison, gracefully served the breakfast, which consisted of four courses. Master Marshall Murphy, who met the guests at the gate and escorted them to the door, deserves great credit for the way in which he played his part. Too much praise cannot be given Miss Kizzie, who so kindly lent a helping hand. The following guests were present: Dr. Booker T. Washington, Bishop Abraham Grant, Dr. R. E. Park, Mr. N. E. Hunt, Rev. A. M. Ward, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, Mr. A. G. Fallings, Mr. J. D. D. Rivers, Mr. J. W. Jackson, Rev. A. E. Reynolds, Mr. P. J. Porter, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. F. Morrison. Mr. and Mrs. McWilliams are both graduates of Tuskegee and their marriage ceremony was performed in Dr. Booker T. Washington's residence at Tuskegee, Ala., just one day after Mrs. McWilliams graduated. At 1 o'clock Dr. Washington was entertained at luncheon by Dean Hart, rector of the Episcopal cathedral. The guests at this dinner were Dr. Washington, Judge Lindsey, Bishop Abram Grant, Dean Peck and wife, Parson Uzzell, Rev. Brown of the Church of the Redeemer, and the two daughters of the host. Mrs. Lillie Smith served. This dinner was notable for the presence of two characters of national renown, the teacher and the judge together with others only a little less celebrated. Tuesday afternoon Dr. Washington spoke to 900 of Denver's teachers in the auditorium of East Denver High school. This address was made at their request and what they thought of the speaker could best be judged by the fact that 900 out of a possible thousand were present. One hearer said of the address that it was the boldest, most outspoken appeal to the white race to measure up to its Christian duty that he had ever heard on such an occasion. In it there were given the substantial facts upon which he based his opinion that it would not be love's labor lost to reach out the helping hand to us, and he added all the arguments that would appeal to their sense of right. The closing hours of Dr. Washington's stay in this city were spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Muse, where dinner was served. It was of eight courses, and with all the charming perfection that has made Mrs. Muse the ideal hostess. The guests were: The guest of honor, Bishop Grant, Rev. Ward, Geo. S. Contee and Mrs. Contee, J. W. Jackson, Dr. Jones, Dr. Ford, Rev. Over and Mrs. Over, A. A. Waller, Miss Mabel Fore, Mrs. Lillie Moore, Willis Barber, Mrs. Chas. Barber, Miss Mary Thirkles, Miss Margaret Willis and Dr. Parks. While in the city Dr. Washington was entertained at the home of Mrs. Atwood on Clarkson street. There he was greeted by the honorary reception the evening of his arrival and a supper served prior to the speaking. The Washington party consisted of himself, Dr. Parks and Mr. Hunt, his secretary, the latter of whom stayed over a few days in the city. A. J. Yarber, of Florence, Colorado, and Rev. Washington, of Cheyenne, Wyoming, were visitors to the city Monday to hear Dr. Washington. Those attendingington lecture frere Messrs. F. headwaiter of the Hopper and wife, the Potato King dames Embry an of Manitou, whilitor of the Times ; the Booker Wash- im Colorado Springs J. Loper, the genial Alamo Hotel; J. H. of Eastonville, Colo. of Colorado; Mes- Philip A. Hubbard, Mr. Brooks, the edcame from Pueblo. The ushers of the various churches did exceedingly well at Parson's Uzzell's Tabernacle. Miss Gertie Nichols, Shorter's Pipe organist, also added FIVE CENTS A COPY a silent argument to Booker Washington's lecture as to the practical and possible evolutions of the trained Negro. The Glee Club sang its way into the hearts of that magnificent audience. The Great Thanksgiving Ball at East Turner Hall Thursday, November 25. Jine us! That's all! MORE THAN ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS. Beginning in last year and struggling on up to the present time the preliminary organization of the Young Men's Christian Association for this city, known as the Brotherhood, has accumulated more than a thousand dollars and nearly two hundred members, and has the assurance from the Central Y. M. C. A. that it will morally and financially assist in the work of making permanent what has been done. The lecture Monday night netted the organization $357, which, added to the $750 already in hand, made a showing that should delight the heart of every lover of better conditions for the race. ALAMOSA NEWS. Mr. W. Green has returned from Leadville. Mrs. Mack Wright is able to be around again. Mr. Hall, of Silverton, is employed at the D. & R. G. shops. Miss O. Riley and Mrs. L.

Western University boasts of having one of the strongest and fastest teams in the West. Their line has stood the test of all onslaughts and the ends are showing marked ability in stopping all runs coming their way. Coach Jacobs cannot be given too much credit for the remarkable manner in which he is handling the squad. Mr. Jacobs thinks his team played a better game than the Topeka Y. M. C. A., notwithstanding the fact that the score was 0 to 0. Coach Jacobs has made a find this season in Martin, the western Kansas lad, who is rapidly developing into one of the best utility men W. U. has had for some time. He proved his ability in the Topeka game, by going in tackle at the instance of Captain Fisher being injured in the second half. Coach Jacobs, formerly of Kansas University, promises a winning team for the "Old Gold and Blue" this year and is daily practicing the team for the games with Topeka Industrial Institute, a return game in Kansas City with the Topeka Y. M. C. A., the Langston University and the Geo. R. Smith College game. The championship honors are still hanging high and the best team will win. Therefore Western University is striving to bring home the prize. The Great Thanksgiving Ball at East Turner Hall Thursday, November 25. Jine us! That's all! Nathaniel Marshal, a young Denverite, sprang into prominence a few months ago out on the coast as a coming bantam weight. Kid Marshal came back to Denver and went to Cheyenne, where he was engaged in a few bouts. He is now matched to fight Kid Reed of Denver for the bantam weight of Wyoming. Kid Marshal is fast on his feet and can stand a great deal of punishment and has a knockout punch in either hand. There is another one of these Marshals making good and that is Jessie, who is fighting out on the coast and is gradually coming to the front of the featherweight crown. A few of Marshal's friends are going up to Cheyenne and see the kid put Reed to sleep. They fight the middle of this month. Young Bruce and Young Gans have signed articles of agreement to fight before any club offering to take the fight in hand. Battling Dane has agreed to fight Bruce before any club that will offer a suitable purse. Sam Langford has added to his list another victim, Klondike Hayne, who was knocked out in two rounds Tuesday, the second. In their former bout Sam fought carelessly and was floored twice in one round, which was something no one has done in side of two years. Sam is trying to force Jack Johnson into a match with a ten thousand dollar backing. I think it is very foolish of Sam to try and force Jack into a fight with him, though it would be a good fight to see. Little Sammie had better let Mr. Johnson take care of the heavies. The biggest and best ever attempted by the Soda Dispensers this year at East Turner Hall, Dec. 2. Don't miss it. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. A COMPARISON OF THE COLORED PUGILISTS JOHNSON'S NEXT BOUT. Champion Likely to Meet Langford Before He Tackles Jeffries. Now that Jack Johnson, the world's heavyweight champion, has disposed of another aspirant for his title, fight followers the country over are clamoring for Jim Jeffries to meet him in the ring. If the pair meet it should result in one of the greatest fistic encounters ever held. Before the champion meets Jeffries he intends taking on Sam Langford, the Boston warrior. A. LATEST PHOTO OF JACK JOHNSON, WORLD'S HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. who has been making a grand cleanup of his own accord in the heavyweight division. Langford is a dangerous man for Johnson to meet before he tackles Jeff. Samuel has a punch with the force of a mule's kick behind it and is a remarkably clever boxer. Many critics figure that had Langford fought Ketchel he would have saved Johnson the trouble of pushing him down the pugilistic ladder. With Jeffries and Langford out of the way, Johnson would remain champion for many many years. Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight, has bought a home in Texas for his mother and two sisters at the cost of $10,000. Jack Johnson inclosed a ticket to Ed Holland, a true sportsman of Denver, to join him immediately. This is the second time Jack has done a deed to Ed. The sportsmen of Denver wish Ed a happy time. All seems in readiness for a match between Sam Langford and Mike Schreck. Sam and Mike ought to put up a good fight and Sam ought to win by a margin. Mike has fought good men, but when he comes in contact with Terrible Sam it will be something doing for a few minutes. Mike at one time was considered a coming champion of the heavies, but he has failed to land the precious crown. If the bout comes off it will be the middle of this month at a club in Pittsburg. Congo Kid is in the limelight again and fought Kid Phelps Monday night in Memphis. KANSAS CITY Y. M. C. A. DEFEATS TOPEKA Y. M. C. A. Following is the account of the football game between the Y. M. C. A. teams of Kansas City, Mo., and Topeka, Kansas. Kansas City won the toss and decided to take the ball. Captain Jamison kicked off and the game was on. Kansas City played old style foot ball and by a series of line bucks advanced the ball to Topeka's 15-yard line. Although outweighed 8 pounds to the man the Kansas boys braced up and held the strong Kansas City team for downs. With the ball in their possession the Topeka boys astounded the immense crowd by their repeated gains through the use of the forward pass, time and time again would the Missouri men tackle a man who they thought had the ball when, in truth, the ball would be sailing swiftly into waiting arms of Simms, Topeka's fast end. On account of the excessive heat the halves were shortened to 25 and 20 minutes, and in that time Kansas City saw some of the fastest and cleverest football that has ever been witnessed in the state. Missouri lost the ball on a fumble, and Topeka recovered the ball only to have the referee blow his whistle for the end of the half. With the score 0 to 0 at the beginning of the second half, both teams trotted to the field inspired by the cheers of the spectators. Ford, quarterback of Missouri, kicked the ball over the fence three or four times to show the crowd that he was still in old-time form. Cary for Topeka received the ball on the next kick-off, and made a spectacular run. Kansas City resolved to hold Topeka where they were and it was impossible for Topeka to get through their stonewall defense. Both teams were heavily penalized, although it was evident that Topeka was not getting justice. On a fake formation that resulted in a one-sided kick and which somewhat took Topeka by surprise, Kansas City recovered the ball. The Kansas City team needed about 15 yards to pusn the ball over and with 10 minutes of play they accomplished a feat that no team has in three years. Score: Kansas City 5, Topeka 0. The Topeka boys showed their never-die spirit and played good football until the last moment of play. The half ended with the ball in Topeka's possession. Jeff Clarke, who looked to be the best colored fighter of Tennessee, lost to Dixie Kid. Dixie Kid, who has been working his way to the top, surprised the sporting people by defeating Clarke. There are times of fun ALWAYS at the Soda Dispensers' Ball, East Turner Hall, Dec. 2. Nuff Sed! WALSENBURG, COLO. To The Statesman: Rev. J. H. Smith, formerly pastor at Grand Junction, Colo., who was ordained to this city in connection with Raton, N. M., is making his second trip to our town, where he holds services every second Sunday. He is making nice progress in church work here, having obtained five new members in his last two meetings. He is at present holding services in the Spanish Presbyterian church, but ex- pects to get into our new church building by the second Sunday of this month. Rev. Smith has reorganized the Sunday school here, which has been stopped sometime because of no meeting place. He has also organized a literary society and expects by next meeting to have other organizations to work in connection with the church. He is ably assisted in these auxiliary branches by Altha and Troy Brandon, graduates of Topeka Industrial Institute.

For fourteen years the Afro-Americans of Savannah, Ga., have had an institution which has endeavored to meet an exigency caused by a peculiar situation, which for a number of years was known as the McKane hospital, but has been changed to the name of Charity hospital. Being surrounded by a people which it is serving to the extent that the wards for men and women, with twenty-four beds, are always filled and applicants every week refused because of inadequate room, caused by an urgent demand, this institution has by its long service and conditions made itself another monument to abnegation of self for those who have so largely contributed to its success. Yet hope seems long deferred by the pillars of this hospital because of their ambition to accommodate a larger number of the race, but cannot because of lack of funds. The city of Savannah contributes $900 annually for its maintenance. Aside from this income, the hospital is sustaining itself with an expense of $300 or more J. MRS. M. W. LONG. each month. It is centrally located to an extent that it is readily a place of succor for emergency cases and surrounded partly by an aristocratic settlement. The appointments of the building are such that they give the comforts one should expect and reflect credit upon the officials of the institution. The operating room is equipped to the extent that it can accommodate the peculiar needs of the profession and is similar to those found in the best hospitals of the country. In this room Dr. Walter Williams has skillfully and successfully performed a large number of operations that have been commented upon by surgeons in all sections of the country. This is the only hospital in this section where Afro-American surgeons can perform operations. Mrs. M. W. Long is the capable head nurse of this hospital. She is a graduate of the Georgia infirmary, and her two years of service in the Charity hospital have proved her to be a woman possessing professional and executive abilities. At present there are ten young ladies from various states contiguous to Georgia who are taking a trained nurse course at THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. this institution. The course requires two years for graduation. Last year the hospital accommodated 447 patients. This year up to the present time at least 500 patients have registered there. The nurses who have graduated are doing excellent work in various states where they are located. The following courses are taught by the following surgeons, physicians and head nurse, an Afro-American staff: Anatomy, physiology and surgery, by Dr. J. Williams; practice of medicine, by Dr. N. W. Este; obstetrics, by Dr. J. D. Williams; chemistry and toxicology, materia medica and therapeutics, by Drs. P. E. Love, W. C. Blackman and head nurse. The white physicians recognize the worth of the institution by sending their Afro-American patients to it. At this time its service to the people of Savannah cannot be overestimated, and, coming into its own by a higher usefulness, it stands out pre-eminently for the support of all people of philanthropic impulses. THE WAYS OF BUREAUCRACY Case In Question Puzzled Chief of Naturalization Bureau. The chief of the bureau of naturalization in Washington has settled, so far as he can, a rather curious question arising out of the fact that some 500 Turks employed in various factories in Michigan City and Laporte, Ind., want to become American citizens. The chief says: "Referring to declaration of intention No. 261, in the name of Charley Said Abraham, made in your court" (answering a county court clerk). "it is noted that the declarant is a Turk, and it is desired to inform you that in the opinion of this office Asiatics are ineligible to American citizenship under the provisions of section 2169 of the revised statutes." Now, section 2169 says nothing about Asiatics. It follows the title with regard to naturalization methods, and its exact language is this: "The provisions of this title shall apply to aliens [being free white persons and to aliens] of African nativity and to persons of African descent." The matter in brackets was imported into our naturalization system when the sand lots agitation against the Chinese was at its height. It was not freely discussed, but quietly inserted. It manifestly did not logically belong with the clause permitting the naturalization of persons of African descent. But it is a part of the law. Africans may be naturalized. Free white persons may be naturalized. Turks are not Africans. Are they free white persons? Free they certainly are. Are they white? The bureau of naturalization through its chief says they are not. It has held that Syrians are white. They vote in Brooklyn. Are Turks darker than Syrians or Syrians darker than Turks? Who can tell? The ways of bureaucracy are inscrutable. Cassie E. Kerr to Study In Nova Scotia. Sir William Gray Wilson, governor of the Bahama islands, who with Lady Wilson arrived in New York recently, brought with him Cassie E. Kerr, a blind Afro-American girl. She is so clever and so ambitious for an education that the governor has decided to send her to an institution for the blind in Nova Scotia. After Cassie completes her education at the Nova Scotia institution Governor Wilson intends to have her return to the Bahamas to become the head of a similar institution there. She lost her sight from a premature blast of dynamite many years ago.

Mrs. John Cornell expects to leave forLo s Angeles next week, where she will stay for about a month for her health. Mrs. Mable Faucett, one of our oldest rooming house landladies, has given up her rooming house business and has rented the Merryweather ranch, about three miles from town, where she will raise all kinds of vegetables for the market. Mrs. Mary Graves, one of the faithful workers of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, gathered a number of the members of their church together and stormed their pastor, Rev. H. A. Henderson, with a surprise party. Every participant carried a bundle of something good to eat. The Eastern Star Club will give an entertainment at their hall on the 8th of November. A nice program will be rendered. For convenience and other reasons the Eastern Star Chapter will change from the Texas jurisdiction to the Colorado jurisdiction. Eureka Lodge No.19, A. F. & A. M., at 2 o'clock next Sunday, will lay the corner stone of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Rev. H. A. Henderson is deserving of much credit for the completion of this beautiful cement block edifice. With only a handful of faithful workers, this church began its struggle about six years ago with Rev. A. E. Reynolds as their pastor. Prayers, with faith in God, has brought them to the goal of their ambition and today they have erected one of the nicest churches in New Mexico. We hope that Mt. Olive church will live to do much good for man in God's name. Robert Faucett met with a painful accident by being thrown from his wagon while driving out to his ranch. He had his foot twisted, which will lay him up for a month or so. Rev. H. H. Jones, our new pastor, by his excellent sermons, is causing pews at the A. M. E. Church to be filled, which is the best evidence to show that the sentiment of the people in our city is grateful to the Bishop for sending us Rev. Jones. Without any doubt Rev. Jones is the best minister we have ever had and it is now up to the people of this city to get busy and show their appreciation of being so blessed.

Phone Main 6123. 1023 19th Street PAGE 2 Man Who Forced Dixon's Retreat First Gun From Intellectual Battery of Famous Negro Scholar Put Author of "Leopard's Spots" to Flight—Fame Seeker's Pathway Blocked by "Race Adjustment." Kelly Miller was first known to the American public as the foremost mathematician of his race. Next he began to attract attention as a sociologist, and now, since the publication of his book, "Race Adjustment," he enjoys by common consent the unique distinction of being the chief advocate for the Negro's side in the discussion of the great race question before the tribunal of the world. The book that has brought the writer into the limelight of the nations has had a most peculiar influence upon the reading public in that it has proved an eye opener to white and colored people alike—to the former because they were unaware of the ability of a single living Negro to take such a view and make such a presentation of the Negro's side of the Negro question; to the latter because they had never before known how far as a race of people they had gone. No one for this or that cause had ever measured the distance. White men of ability were not attracted to the task, and before the day of Professor Miller it is doubtful indeed if there were others with the preparedness to do it. But Professor Miller took up the task and put the results of his labors and investigations into this book, "Race Adjustment." The book is taking so well with the reading public that it is now looked upon as an authority on the questions dealt with. It hushed, with politeness, yet with firmness, by the adroit marshaling of indisputable statistics, the voice and silenced the pen of race agitators. The world now discredits their utterances and writings and will continue to do so until these agitators are prepared with facts and figures to meet the evidence submitted by Kelly Miller in this remarkable book. The Vardamans, Tillmans, Hoke Smiths, Thomas Dixons, Tom Watsons and John Temple Graveses have found their pathway to fame blocked by the writings of this Negro scholar. Miller has thrown the searchlight of intelligent investigation upon the passports of these fame seeking adventurers, and an unbiased public has pronounced them fraudulent. The scholarship of Professor Miller is the one thing that overawes, disqualifies and puts at such disadvantage his white antagonists. He is by training and education easily the mental superior of the aforesaid public men. It is a matter of record that Mr. Dixon did essay to grapple with Professor Miller, but the professor's first gun, "As to the Leopard's Spots" (page 28-56 in "Race Adjustment") silenced Mr. Dixon's battery and forced him to retreat in disorder. The reading by thousands of people of Professor Miller's letter to Mr. Dixon on "The Leopard's Spots" has played no small part in arousing intelligent opposition to Mr. Dixon's plays and preventing them from being staged in many cities of the north. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORAD "Race Adjustment" is the modest name given by this modest Negro professor to his book that contains nineteen brilliant, thoughtful, authoritative essays written in the king's best English upon subjects vital to every Negro—in fact, to every man in America. It is hard to select the best ones out of a list like this: "Radicals and Conservatives." "As to the Leopard's Spots," "An Appeal to Reason on the Race Problem," "The Negro's Part In the Negro Problem," "Social Equality," "The City Negro," "Religion as a Solvent of the Race Problem," "The Land of Goshen," "Rise of the Professional Class," "Eminent Negroes," etc. Professor Miller, the author, is dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in Howard university and professor of mathematics and sociology. He was a fellow in the postgraduate school in Johns Hopkins university. While there he studied under such eminent scholars as Dr. Fabian Franklin and Professor Simon Newcomb. Although a hard student and an incessant worker, Professor Miller is not by any means either pedantic or pedagogical. Neither has he allowed "much learning to make him mad." He has an abiding faith in the religion of the fathers, as can be seen from a reading of his essay "Religion as a Solvent of the Race Problem." He is a typical college man. The book is, indeed, popular with the young men around Howard. They can be heard repeating long passages in "Race Adjustment" from memory. Here is one of the popular passages of the college boys: "Genius knows no age, no country, no race. It belongs to mankind. The Negro enters into the inheritance of all the ages on equal terms with the rest, and who can say that he will not contribute his quota of genius to enrich the blood of the world?" Have Delivered the "Goods" Often. Time after time we have delivered "the goods" to the Republican party. It will not do us any harm to try the Democrats. The Republican party accepts our votes as a matter of fact and a sure thing. Therefore they do not bother their heads about keeping their promises. It is up to us now to pull away from them and vote for Judge Gaynor.—Brooklyn Eye. Miss Moorman Chosen Soloist. The committee having charge of the great diamond jubilee meeting to be held in New York Dec. 13 in the interest of the $3,000,000 fund to be raised for Africa by January, 1910, has been fortunate in securing the services of Miss Irena L. Moorman as soloist for the occasion. President William H. Taft will deliver the principal address. There will also be many distinguished missionary and other religious workers from the south and west. Among the leaders of Afro-Americans in New York will be the Rev. Dr. William H. Brooks of St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal church. Mrs. Hunton's Return to America. Mrs. Addie W. Hunton, who went abroad about a year ago to study sociological conditions in Germany and other European countries, is expected to return to the United States early in November. Mrs. Hunton is the national organizer for the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. She is a native of the south and is reputed to be one of the ablest of Afro-American women. Mrs. Hunton's return is anxiously awaited by thousands of clubwomen throughout America. --- The Leader Cafe MRS. L. LACY AND MRS. S. E. JAMES, Proprietors D. W. LACY, Manager REGULAR NOON DINNER.

SEN. RUSH MAKES A MASTER-SPEECH ON THE WATER QUESTION. It was an interesting day at the Alliance Sunday when that excellent program of music and intellectuality was given. The program consisted of a violin solo by Mr. W. A. Gatewood, accompanied by his daughter, and the piano solo so excellently rendered by Mrs. E. L. Faukner, only reminded the audience of her peerless ability as a musician, while Miss Eva Carter sang so sweetly and pathetically, "Deep In My Heart," that she won the entire audience. The water question was certainly exploited by the able Senator, and many questions were asked and answered. He told how exorbitant the prices were, how impaired and imperfect was the service, how small and inexpensive were the irrigation charges and what it all meant for the city or municipality to own its own water plant. He began with Boulder, Pueblo, Fort Collins, Greeley, Colorado Springs and Trinidad in Colorado, and demonstrated that they had sense and brains enough to own, control and operate their own plants, and asked the question, if Denver was less superior than other cities. Sunday was a red letter day in everything and much knowledge was gained. Sunday is business Sunday. Mrs. Nannie Childs accidentally fell and broke two ligaments in her leg.

INDUSTRY OF MRS. BRANCH. Amiable Young Matron Who Is Devoting Time to Child Study. Mrs. Vidi Riout Branch, who is the accomplished wife of the Rev. T. T. Branch of Fayetteville, N. C., is one of the most gifted vocalists among Afro-Americans in the state. While in school at South Broad Street Conservatory of Music, Philadelphia, she filled many engagements in different northern cities, where her sweet, well rounded voice thrilled many fashionable audiences. Mrs. Branch is a native of New Jersey and a graduate of the State Normal school at Trenton. On account of the high average made A. MRS. VIDI RIOUT BRANCH. in her studies while a student at the state school, upon graduation Mrs. Branch was given a life certificate in pedagogy. Mrs. Branch is a member of two white quartets, and at a recent commencement she represented the musical department of her alumnae. She is truly devoted to child study, and in this particular phase of racial development she is manifesting deep interest in the little Afro-Americans of Fayetteville. She is endeavoring to get the parents of children to observe the distinct characteristics of their children and to talk with them according to their capacity to understand things and to place no opposition in the way of forming good character. She is a lover of the works of the old music masters and is adept at piano playing. Unwarranted Attack on Aged Man. Cosby Jones, the aged Afro-American who was struck and unmerciful blow over the head by Policeman Swords on Labor day in New York, filed suit against Swords in the superior court a few days ago for $2,000 damages. Mr. Jones had committed no offense. He was about to cross Whitehall street just as the Labor day parade was starting, when the policeman in question felled him to the street. At the hospital eight stitches were taken to close the wound. The police board investigated the matter: but, as usual, because his victim was an Afro-American the policeman was exonerated. Mr. Jones is about eighty years of age. M. LAWHOPE UNDERTAKER J. J.

To be gifted in letters, successful in business, proficient in one's chosen profession, are all creditable to the great world of industry, but to have the faculty to invent something of real benefit which will alleviate suffering, obviate difficulties, save time and labor in mechanical handicraft and in many other ways advance the interest of commercialism or domestic science in household perplexities is to be a real benefactor. As to the number of use A. E. MISS CHLOE ETTA JOHNSON. ful inventions by Afro-Americans, the records show many which bear the imprint of years of hard study. We have the names of 280 Afro-American inventors of various contrivances, many of whom are of limited school education, but whose minds are filled with inquiry and the desire for originality. The invention of the adjustable trunk tray by Miss Chloe Etta Johnson of Springfield, Mass., is no doubt the only one of its kind which has found marketable value in reputable business houses. This device greatly facilitates the orderly packing of trunks in that it is so adjusted as to prevent garments in one section from becoming entangled with others. Several trays may be used in one trunk, put in or taken out, lowered or raised, while the garments in their order will remain smoothly in their original position. The directions for packing one of these trunk trays are very simple. Once learned, it becomes a pleasurable art. There is nothing so far so service able to the maintenance of orderly wardrobes for travelers and other busy or fashionable persons as Johnson'a trunk tray. Miss Johnson in an interview quite recently said: "I was born THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. or slave parents in Notoway county, Va. There were eight children in the family, six boys and two girls, all of whom are living except one brother. My parents are both dead. My opportunities for getting an education were very limited. I have, however, tried to gain a little knowledge—here a little and there a little, as best I could." As to how she came to invent the adjustable trunk tray Miss Johnson said: "I happened to devise my invention as the result of an experience I had in X ADJUSTABLE TRUNK TRAY. trunk packing. I had never thought of inventing anything until one day I had some packing to do. I was very tired. After finishing my task and my mind became rested an idea of a better way of arranging trunk trays came to me like a flash of light. I went promptly to work, contrived and perfected the adjustable trunk tray, for which I have been awarded a hand some silver medal. My invention bears registered patent mark Aug. 16, 1898." There has been no time since the Negroes of Maryland have had the right of franchise that they have not used if for the very best interests of the people of the whole state. Can as much be said by those who are now trying to rob them of it? Time For Spendthrifts to Call a Halt. In our city we have a large number of young men who are holding good positions and earning fair salaries. Many of these young men are spendthrifts. It is time for these young men to call a halt and commence preparing for the future by saving a part of their earnings regularly. They should learn a lesson from the penniless foreigners who by frugal living in a few years become independent. The spending of money for a good time amounts to nothing in the end but broken health and candidates for the poorhouse. Savannah (Ga.) Tribune. Douglass to Appear at Star Recital.

When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities, 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 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." We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind). See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE.

Being himself a success despite the color handicap, he has good reason for feeling that we can succeed if we only will. In this connection he spoke of the proposal to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the freedom of the race in 1913 by a national exposition, which shall represent our progress since slavery. The exposition is still an idea to be worked out, but one that will be feasible if the majority opinion of the race favors it. The evil that we do is widely advertised, but the good is submerged and the racial identity of the doer is not commented upon. Such an exposition would gather up the contributions which we have made to civilization in this country and would be designed to advertise them to the white race as well as to encourage ourselves. The people of Colorado and the West are free to express their opinions of the proposal in the columns of this paper. Persons sending in news will please bear in mind that names of people are hard to get correctly from hand writing. From time to time we make the most grievous twists of persons' names from no fault of ours, but because handwriting is difficult to read in this particular.

To the Alumni, Former Pupils and Friends of Howard University: You have already been made aware of the death of Gen. O. O. Howard, founder and patron saint of Howard University. Gen. Howard stands out before the civilized world as the incarnation of Christian philanthropy. To us who are special beneficiaries of his labors, his death has a deeper significance and meaning. I am sure that every loyal son of Howard has been profoundly moved by the tidings of his taking-off. As president of the Alumni Association of Howard University, I propose memorial meetings in his honor in the different cities where a considerable number of Howard men are to be found. In cases where local Alumni associations have been organized, I suggest that meetings be arranged un- PAGE.

The fault can only should be as late as Monday in reach der their auspices. In other instances let the spirit of loyalty and gratitude make this an occasion for bringing all Howard men together. I deem it appropriate that this occasion be utilized to stimulate interest in the proposed Alumni gymnasium for the development of our student body, now over 1,300 strong. I shall be glad to take up details through correspondence with those who will assume leadership in the several communities. When all the world stands ready to do homage to this Christian hero and philanthropist, surely the sons of Howard University will lead the way. President Alumni Association Howard University. TRINIDAD, COLO. The ladies of the Sewing Circle of St. Paul's Baptist Church gave "A Trip Around the World" last Friday night, which was largely attended. They left the depot at 9:00 on the Overland Limited Route for Mexico, where they were delightfully served with chillie and crackers by Mrs. Crutchfield. The conductor punched the tickets and gave the signal for the next station. A shriek whistle and the Limited was off for England, where we were deliciously served with corn bread, spinach, turnips and cheese by Mrs. McChapin. Haul-a-board was heard, and again the Limited was crowded for Japan. The beautiful little Japan cottage was quite interesting. Here they were served the best imported tea of Japan with cheese and wafers by Mrs. Grant. Almost unconsciously they found the Limited speeding through the narrow streets and by securing information from the conductor they soon learned they were in Cuba, where they were refreshed by punch and wafers served by Mrs. Seymour. Miss Ethel Sutton and Miss Georgia Seymour very gracefully favored the party with a few choice selections of music. Haul-a-Board! Haula-Board, for the United States and the Limited was crowded for its last time and in a few hours they landed in the United States. With the beautiful cottage decorated in patriotic colors, many patriotic hymns were sung, then refreshments of ice cream, coffee and cake were served by Mrs. Stele. All reported a very enjoyable time. The ladies regret very much owing to the lateness of some not knowing the Limited is never behind times, were saally left. They also want to extend their gratitude to the many friends who patronized them. --- TERMS 1435-37 16th St. 100 R. B.
