FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN WYOMING'S CAPITAL TWENTIETH YEAR WYOM CHEYENNE, WYOMING. Mrs. James E. Smith is on the sick this week. Simon Gaskin has returned from a trip to his old home in Fulton, Wyo. Miss Duncan, of Omaha, Neb., is a guest at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Washington. Miss Duncan is a charming young woman and has already won many friends by her pleasing manners. Mrs. Lulu Courtney, who has made her home in this city for the past three years, is again located in her old home in Denver, Colo. Mrs. Courtney will be greatly missed in church and social circles, and her many friends in this city regret her departure. Miss S. Katheryn Thistle, who is in charge of a school in Wycote, Wyoming, reports that she is delighted with her school work. Miss Thistle's friends will be delighted to see her when she returns home for the holidays. Mrs. Wm. M. Ashford, who has been suffering with rheumatism for several months, is at this writing a little improved in health. Her appearance at the Christian Endeavor meeting last Sunday evening was an inspiration to all in attendance, and her helpful and encouraging remarks were received with attention. Mrs. R. L. Price, of Oakland, Calif., was a stop-over guest in our city Monday. Mrs. Price was called to Topeka, Kan., to attend at the bedside of an aunt who is seriously ill. Mrs. Price was for many years a Cheyenne resident and her host of friends here were delighted to greet her in their midst again. Mrs. Laura Bralton, who was taken to her home in Crawford, Neb., a few weeks ago, suffering from a stroke of paralysis, died at that place a few days after her arrival there. Mrs. Bralton was a member of Allen's A. M. E. church in this city, and her death is regretted by many who knew her and loved her. Mr. and Mrs. Butler, of Salt Lake City, are visiting in our city at the home of Mrs. Helen Thompson, West Twentleth street. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Butler are in hopes that they may decide to make Chey- --- DENVER. COLORADO. SATURDAY NOVEMBER 12 1909 enne their future home. The eldest son of Rev. and Mrs. Washington was a visitor at the home of his parents two weeks ago. Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Turner are now pleasantly located in their cozy new residence in the north end of town. Mr. and Mrs. Turner come to us from Iowa and are heartily welcomed to our city. They are the parents of Miss Katheryn Turner, who has made her home here for nearly two years. A very novel and interesting Hallowe'en party was enjoyed at the home of Miss Lillian Jefferson last Saturday evening, which was participated in by the younger set of our city. Miss Jefferson proved herself an ideal hostess and all present report a delightful time. Among those in attendance were the Misses Virgil Gaskin, Vivian Taylor, Ruth Robinson, Eunice Ashford and Miss Duncan of Omaha, Neb.; Messrs. Wm. Ashford, Jr., Spencer and Howard Caves, Earl and Elmer Smith, George Taylor and Philip Baker. The wife of Rev. Washington has endeared herself to all with whom she has come in contact by her sweetness of manners and loving considerate disposition. She has made herself doubly dear to the young girls of our city by organizing them into an art and literary club. She club is known as the "Young Ladies' Art and Literary Club," and the organization is an auxiliary to the "Mite Missionary Society" of the A. M. E. church. Several interesting and profitable meetings have been held, and some very artistic needlework is being done by the club members. The next meeting will be held on next Saturday afternoon at the home of Miss Eunice Ashford. A literary and musical program will be rendered and a rare treat is expected along that line. Miss Lillian Jefferson has the honor of being the president of the new club. Miss Ruth Robinson proves a very efficient secretary. The club has the best wishes for success from all. Mr. Edward Sloan, who for some time has made Cheyenne his home, is now located in Oakland, California, where he has secured a very lucrative position in a barber shop. The entertainment given by the members of the Stewardess' Board a few evenings ago was quite successful from many standpoints. A nice crowd was present and the box-suppers, prepared by the ladies, were disposed of quickly and were enjoyed. Oysters, ice cream and cake were also served, and a neat sum was realized from the affair. Mrs. Wm. Lucas is credited with having the most artistically decorated supper box. We wish to rectify a mistake contained in our last items in regard to Mr. Nolle Smith, whom we reported to have been already appointed to West Point. Contrary to his appointment Mr. Smith is eligible to appointment providing he passed the final examination which is held in January. Should Mr. Smith fortunately pass in this examination he will then receive the appointment and will report at West Point some time in March. The erroneous statement was made through an unintentional misconstruction and misrepresentation of the facts of the case by well-meaning friends who are interested in Mr. Smith's career. The remains of the late Napoleon Bonaparte Scalis were laid to rest at Lakeview cemetery November 1. Mr. Bonaparte Scales were laid to rest at spected citizen of Cheyenne, having made his home here for the past 30 years. Mr. Scales had been failing in health for many months, and his loss is regretted by a host of friends. The funeral service were held at the A. M. E. church and were conducted by Rev. James Washington, who delivered a touching eulogy over the remains. The floral offerings were very beautiful, the casket being covered with them, and mutely testified to the esteem in which Mr. Scales was held. Cheyenne's elite were for several weeks on the qui vive of excitement in anticipation of the "At Home" to be given by the Ladies of the Household of Ruth on November 4. It seemed that nature was in harmony with the event, as the weather was all that could be desired, the air being soft and balmy; a typical western November evening. Promptly at 9 o'clock the guests, conveyed in taxicabs and automobiles, began to arrive and soon the beautifully decorated hall was a scene of animation. The guests were received by the hosts and were regaled with fruit punch while in orchestra, concealed behind a bank of ferns, rendered soft and appropriate music. FIVE CENTS A COPY During the evening a menu consisting of oyster patties, potato chips, olives, fruit and coffee was served by a bunch of ladies from a handsomely decorated table. Miss Lena Hopkins, the chairman of the decorating committee, received many compliments on her artistic wall decorations, flags and bunting being used in profusion. An unique diversion was created in the table decorations; at the suggestion of Mrs. Wm. Ashford a pyramid of fruit was arranged under the magic fingers of Mrs. James E. Smith and the effect was very beautiful. Palms and cut flowers were also used in profusion and together with the handsome gowns worn by the ladies the scene was one of beauty and one that will long remain in the minds of all who witnessed it. Mrs. John A. Baker was general manager of the affair, and it is through her untiring efforts that the "At Home" of the Household of Ruth proved such a decided success in every way. Mrs. Baker is in receipt of many well deserved compliments for the success of the affair. Among the guests were Capt. and Mrs. Young of Fort D. A. Russell; Sergeant and Mrs. Plum Banks and Sergeants Cooper, Hurt, Heard, Fitch, Brown and Leonard. The A. M. E. choir rendered a very enjoyable program last Sunday evening, assisting Rev. Washington in his rally. A number of choice anthems were rendered and Mrs. J. E. Smith delighted her hearers with her artistic rendition of "Ave Maria." Serg. John E. Leonard, of Fort Russell, recited in an admirable manner one of Dunbar's serious selections. Mr. Joseph Carlile, of Washington, D. C., delivered an address which proved him a man of deep thought. Ancient Roman history appears as familiar to Mr. Carter as any history of modern times and his application of his theme was impressive. At the close of the program Rev. Washington, in his charming manner, thanked the choir for their services and for their untiring efforts to make his first rally-day in Cheyenne a success. Special thanks were tendered to Mrs. E. F. Landor, the choirister, and to Mrs. Quinn J. Gilmore and Miss Lillian Jefferson, who ably presided at piano and organ. Rev. Washington was able to report $50 raised by subscription to be appropriated to the expense of electric lights and other improvements. Rev. Washington is contemplating many other improvements on the church property, and has the hearty support of the church members and friends in his efforts.

The Negro sporting fraternity is all jubilant over the recent victory of Johnson over Ketchel. Each night one can hear echoes of the great fight along the Great White Way (State street) saying: "Just wait until he metes Jeffries; he will kill him sure." All the thoroughbreds anxiously await this meeting in July, and will wager odds on the black opponent. Jack Johnson himself is very much different from other fighters who have sought high honors in the pugilistic ring. Above all things he is a gentleman and an honorable citizen. The writer has had personal talks with him on several occasions and can verify all statements written thereto. He is of temperate habits, and a cautious spender of easy money, devoting a goodly share of it to defray the expenses of his aged mother, sister and brother, who live in Galveston, Texas. Of course, all of us have our faults. We would not be colored if it were not for that fault (our complexion is one fault). Jack has taken to automobiling, and he is considered by many to be the premier in that line among the colored chauffers. Recently he has purchased a big fine residence on one of the principal streets on the east side, and will move his family there. To move his family here so they can enjoy all that is in life without racial friction has been the dream of his life. This is soon to be accomplished. It indeed makes the average Negro feel proud to see a crowd of all nationalities trailing at his heels just to get one look at the mighty champion. Wherever he goes, whether hall, theater, dining room, etc., he is the topic of conversation. Then, too, to see him in his big 60 horsepower roadster making almost 50 miles an hour up State street, you can only shake your head and say, "Oh, you Jack Johnson!" for he has both the money and the title behind him. Who would not feel proud over such a hero? Even Booker T. Washington, in his address at Howard University, praised him for his skill against his white competitors. We can hardly wait for the coming battle between Jeffries and this mighty champion, and long to see this white adversary lying lifelessly at his feet from one of those terrific wallops of his wonderful ambi-dextrous swings. FOOTBALL. Football seems to be at a standstill here at present. The Douglas Athletic Club is the only one so far in the field. They have won several games from their white opponents. There are not any colored boys on any of the teams in and around Chicago schools and universities. Alexander, the famous right end at Ames, Iowa. Agricultural College, seems to be the premier of all Negro football players this season. His wonderful skill exhibited on the gridiron has won for him a warm spot in the student body of that institution. In the game last Saturday against Missouri, Missouri won on account of his absence from the game. The Missourians refused to play with a "Nigger," so one of the big local dailies puts it. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. A COMPARISON OF THE COLORED PUGILISTS Pollard, who made such a record last year at Dartmouth, has given up football this year and is teaching in the south. Great interest is being manifested in the coming annual game between Fiske University and Meharry Medics at Nashville. During the past ten years Meharry has won three-fourths of the games. Fiske has won the last two years on account of the overconfidence of Meharry rather than their superior football tactics. Both teams are evenly balanced and the meeting is looked forward to with much interest. Fiske's team is to start soon on its southern trip, playing Atlanta Baptist, Talladega, Flint Medics and Tuskegee. The football situation remains quiet. Douglass Athletic Club is rounding into shape and will soon be heard of one the gridiron. BASEBALL. The baseball season, just closed, was the grandest in many respects. All the Negro teams throughout the country report a splendid season. In Chicago the Leland Giants won the city championship against five white semi-professional teams. They were handicapped almost from the beginning, and Rube Foster, the peerless dusky twirler, or, as the Tribune and Inter-Ocean call him, the black Matthewson (both on account of broken legs in progress of the game). They scoured the country in search of players, and by streak of luck, landed Dourghty and Norman, a Topeka boy. These two boys together with Ball, their last year's star twirler, were too much for their white contemporaries, and had them at their mercy in nearly all the games played. In the ranks of the white semi-professionals were many of the National and American league outlaw players, who had refused to play on their respective teams for pecuniary reasons; such as Callahan, Frazier, Kling, Chase and a host of others. So, you see, the colored men are playing ball at a higher caliber than the average citizen is aware. There has been some talk as to who should have the honor of the colored championship. The Gophers (Minneapolis) claim the title from the fact that they defeated the Lelands two out of three games. The Lelands claim the games played were not championship games, and therefore do not count anything. Philadelphia Giants claim it, also, as they beat the Lelands; but the Lelands cleaned up the Cuban Giants, who put it all over the "Phillies." Then you see, it is clearly demonstrated that the Lelands are premiers. At the close of the semi-professional season, the Leland Giants played the famous "World's Champions of the National League." The Giants put up the fiercest fight of the Cub's career. The first game, 2 to 1, caused by a wild throw to second in the ninth inning. The second game, 6 to 5, was lost in a wrangle over blocked bases. A man on third base ran home when the second baseman of the Leland, angered by the decision, threw the ball in the bleachers, causing the man on third to score. At this stage everyone was in an ugly mood. Even big Bert A. William, the big comedian whose company was playing here at that time, raised his voice in protest. The game was forfeited. In the third game the game was called at the end of five innings on account of rain, at 1 to 0. The Lelands had two men on bases and none out. As Sam Struthers, the sub. catcher, says, "they won one game, stole one game, and the Lord sent the rain to save the honor of the National League. Had the Lelands won from the National League, I doubt whether they ever would play another colored team, as the humiliation would be too great. It is rumored that Mr. Lealand, former manager of the team, will pull out of the Leland Giant Baseball and Amusements Association, and try to put another team in Chicago semi-professional league. Too bad that such a thing has happened. His team will be called the Chicago Giants. It is a certainty that both cannot belong to the league, and that the south side, where the teams are to play, cannot support two first-class teams. I think it is a foolish trick. Let us have one good colored team and as many other minor ones as we are able to support. One good colored team in a six-circuit schedule is enough. Now, if Mr. Leland wants to do something, let him organize a colored league, or such a birth with some other semi-professional teams outside of the Chicago league. Frank Leland, former manager of the famous Leland Giants, secured the lease to Arburn Park for the coming season, thus putting his contemporaries out of the race for the park next season. He will call his team the "Chicago Giants." He has signed most all of the stars of the past season except Foster, Booker, Struthers and Harris. The latter have remained firm and will continue to play under the name of "Leland Giants," the name having been copyrighted. They intend to build up a powerful team from outside material, and open next year's season at Normal park. Too bad such has happened. One thing is certain, there will be no two Negro clubs in the "City League," and if both are not careful there won't be any. One good team to represent us is a plenty. Jack Johnson has entered upon a 20-weeks' vaudeville tour of the principal cities, opening up at Star and Garter theater on the west side. He is greeted with crowded houses at each performance. It seems as if some day they will lay aside color prejudice and judge a man for his true worth. I am certain in course of time he will become the most popular champion, as he is now called by many of the big dailies the most unpopular champion. A very interesting cartoon appeared in one of the big dailies recently. It pictures Johnson standing in front of a small shack crying aloud, "Step this way, gentlemen; buy your tickets and see if you can find 'the yellow streak.'" Behind the old shack lay three men sprawling on their backs, named, respectively, Burns, Kauffman and Ketchel, while in front of the domicile were characters representing Corbett, Sharkey, John L. Sullivan and Kid McCoy, trying to push Jeffries up to the ticket stand to "find the yellow streak." Jeffries was pictured as frightened, saying, "Some time in summer time, but never in the winter time." COME YE, THAT LOVE FOOTBALL. The interest in the coming game between the "Spumpkin" eleven and the Y. M. C. B. Thanksgiving morning is constantly growing. Each day finds the two teams working hard with a grim determination to return the victor. The "Spumpkins" are a husky bunch of boys who know the game in every particular, are fast on foot and will be in the game every minute. Capt. Tyndale Graves wears a broad smile and is de-lighted with the manner in which his team works. The "Ministers" are confident, they may possibly be out-weighed, but in other phases of the game Capt. Wayman Ward believes his team is on a par with its opponents. Our old friend and fellow warrior, Willie Parks, who has been out of the game for some time, has at last gained the consent of a few "objecting fair ladies," and will be seen again in action. Let us hope that he comes out of the game safe and sound. The names of Drs. McClain and Harper have been suggested as officials. The game will be called at 9:30 sharp. Come out and help your team win. Twenty-third and Welton streets. After the Y. M. C. B. football team has walloped the "Spoomkins," they will make preparations to put on a basketball team. As the quality to choose from is par excellent, a good, fast team is expected to be put on. ATHLETICS IN KANSAS CITY. The Kansas City, Kan., Giants have just closed a most remarkable season of baseball. Under the management of Jack Johnson, of Chicago, they have gone through the season without a defeat even after meeting some of the strongest teams in the country, east and west. They have their own ball park at Kansas City, Kan., and the throngs that greeted them each Sunday they were at home taxed it to its limit. They plan a greater team for the next season. The boys of Sumner High School, Kansas City, have no football team this year. It is thought that the girls will put another great champion basketball team in the field, as they had two years ago. ```markdown ``` SEEING IS BELIEVING The finest stock of Ladies' and Gents' slightly used clothing in the West.

Monday evening, Nov. 8th, Pike's Peak Fountain No. 2916, of the Order of True Reformers, entertained the other fountains of this division at their annual reception, the occasion being their first anniversary. The sweet strains of the True Reformers' orchestra lent much to the occasion. The following program was rendered: Quartette, Miss Grace Burns, Mrs. T. R. Burns and Messrs. Burns and Gatewood; welcome address, Worthy Master, Mrs. R. E. Harold; solo, "Roses," Miss Gracie Burns, was so well received that she was compelled to respond with an encore; response to the welcome address, Worthy Messenger, Mrs. Irene Fife; humorous reading, "Pass Dat Biskit," by Franklin H. Bryant, W. A. Gatewood, elicited much applause; remarks by the Worthy Chief, A. C. Cash, in his usual characteristic style, were well received. After partaking of the abundant supply of refreshments, the visitors departed, voting Pike's Peak Fountain a royal entertainer. Master of ceremonies and Worthy Messenger, T. M. Campbell. ALLIANCE HAS LIVELY DISCUSSION. Because an article purporting that German girls were constantly annoying African natives by their letters of love and proposals of marriage, without any solicitation upon their part, the People's Sunday Alliance took up the matter both from a racial and international standpoint and a very lively discussion developed. Some members thought that Germany was selling her maidens in order to get a foothold upon rich Africa amicably. An article from Prof. Albert E. Jenks, teacher of sociology of the University of Minnesota, on "Miscegnation of Whites and Colored Races," was also read. The following is the program for November: Nov. 14—Miss Elsie Von Dickershon, literary selection; address, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook. Nov. 21—"The Cuban Negro," R. J. Von Dickershon; Mrs. Theta Ector, recitation. Nov. 28—Violin solo, Prof. Easley; vocal solo, Roy Handy; literary selection, Mrs. Leona Barbee; address. REV. OWENS' POWERFUL SERMON Sunday was quarterly meeting at Shorter. The day was alive with spiritual blessings. Rev. J. C. C. Owens, presiding elder, was at his best Sunday in his strong and powerful sermon on "Loyalty." These few words of description can not possibly give you the clear insight, the bounden duty imposed upon layman and preacher alike that actual presence at sermon could have given you. He laid down the propositions of loyalty by showing God's loyalty to us, and the need of our loyalty to Him and our loyalty to each other, to our business men, professional and tradesmen. Then the presiding elder treated his subject from the viewpoint of loyalty in friendship and loyalty of races. "I often hear persons of my race say," said Rev. Owens, "that they will spend their money with anyone that it makes no difference to them about the color, they will not draw any color line in business. I do not advise the drawing of color line in business, but who is it who draws the color line on us, and should we not protect ourselves in these matters by protecting our own by properly developing them?" It was a masterful effort. An unusually large audience enjoyed the spiritual feast. In the afternoon Rev. J. N. Wallace of Scott M. E. church preached a very strong and uplifting sermon upon sacrament and the house was alive with religious re- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. joicings. The night service came up to the standard of the day, making the day a veritable success in every way. Mrs. R. H. George of 2344 Tremont Place has returned from an extended trip East. Mrs. Cora Fisher and husband had charge of the premises during her absence and their caretaking was very satisfactory. Mrs. George reports that in no way is Denver in the rear of any of the large cities in the way of progress, homegetting, intellectual and diligent men and women and according to her population Denver is making good rapidly. She liked her trip but she is even fonder of Denver. Jos. Williams is now in the Burlington chair car employ. REORGANIZER OF CHOIRS. Success Achieved by Professor P. Albert Myers of Brooklyn. One of the best known and most capable choristers of church choirs in Greater New York is Professor P. Albert Myers, chorister of the choir of the Concord Baptist church. When Professor Myers took charge of the choir several years ago it was largely disorganized as to arrangement of voices and for want of a sufficient number of trained singers to make the singing at the services of the church effective. Professor Myers on taking charge began at once to reorganize the choir, procure new singers and institute regular rehearsals. In this he has been eminently successful, so much so that today the choir of Concord Baptist Church of Christ in Brooklyn is said to be one of the best among Afro-American churches in Greater New York. Professor Myers believes in preparation and to that end has prepared himself both in voice culture and string music, studying under some of the best masters. He is peculiarly fitted as a teacher of sight singing and has been quite successful with the violin. He is the originator of several grouped choruses, octets, etc., and is chairman of the entertainment committee of the Carlton avenue branch of the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. A pleasing demonstration of Professor Myers' ability as an arranger of music for great occasions was witnessed a few nights ago at the Baptist temple of Brooklyn, where he had charge of the music at the memorial exercises in honor of Dr. William T. Dixon. There were six choirs represented, numbering in the aggregate about 125 voices. Professor Myers had everything so arranged that every choir understood exactly what a simple motion of the baton meant. Besides being musical, Professor Myers is also greatly interested in athletics. He is one of the leading players on the Y. M. C. A. teams and is good at bowling, running, jumping and basketball. Biennial of Women's Clubs In 1910. The next biennial session of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs will be held in Louisville, Ky., in 1910. The executive committee will soon announce the date of meeting and plans of the reception and care of delegates and other important information. Miss Elizabeth C. Carter is president of the association, whose toto is, "Lifting as we climb." Young Musician's First Recital. Young Musician's First Recital. Musical circles at Pittsburg are already astir with preparations for attending the first public recital of the pupils of Mr. Frederick D. Hawkins, which will take place at Arcade hall on Wednesday evening.

Ethloplan Movement, Which Had Its Orig ln America, Growing in Strength—Zan- ibar Base of Operations—German East Africa Objective Point—Father Hendle’s Thrilling Experience. That the colored race is going ahead rapidly and that the Ethiopian move- ment begun in this country will even- tually drive the white man out of Af- rica is the firm belief of Rev. Innocent Fendle, a missionary for ten years in Kwiro, province of Upogoro, Africa, who is now in the United States. Fa- ther Hendle came to America to visit a friend in Texas and has also visited the various Benedictine monasteries in this country. “I feel certain,” said Father Hendle recently, “that all of Africa will pass from under the white man’s rule. The movement is constantly gaining strength, which some years ago began in America and which {fs known as the Ethiopian movement. The plans are controlled by a secret society, and the idea is to get control of South Africa and move toward the interior. The Mohammedans, and there are many Negroes that belong to that faith, are to move down from the north and join those coming up from the south. The white man can never hope to with- stand them, and already central Africa is entirely in the hands of the Negro. The base of operations is Zanzibar. German East Africa will be the first to fall into the hands of the colored people, and, strange to say, the Ger- man government itself is doing much to weaken, unconsciously perhaps, its own power there. It maintains a number of free schools, where the Mohammedans attend and are encour- aged in their religion. “British East Africa will be the next to succumb. But the fight here will be terrible, for England will bave her soldiers from India to call upon and render her assistance. The accounts in the daily papers of uprisings in East Africa are not exaggerated. | myself had to take part in two wars The first was in 1898, when the upris ing against Sultan Machemba and the German natives took place. Then there was the war against the white man from 1905 to 1906. There were only sixty-seven soldiers in the mis sion and seven laymen. These hac te fight against 12,000 natives. I kill ed several of the natives in that war being obliged to fight with the soldiers The Christian natives, of course fought with us. Our three mission ary districts were besieged ten months and it took ten months before we go help from the home government.” Father Hendle said that the Negroet were very bright and had wonderfu Memories. ‘In the province of Ger man East Africa, where we have s mission,” he said, ‘there are in-all tex schools, where 1,200 children are edu cated. Uganda, in British East Afri ca, has a Catholic population of 2,500 people in one province. The whit fathers are even starting a seminar) there for priests.” Father Hendle gives most thrilling accounts of his experience with lions. “I shot three,” he said, “and grev quite accustomed to meeting them One night they attacked us in camp THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD: MRS.

I hit him, but he continued to annoy us until morn- ing, when he died. During my stay in Africa I killed three lions, many leop- ards and any number of hyenas. ‘The last mentioned animal is a horrible beast. It acts quickly, very often snapping off a leg at the knee or tear- ing out the entrails should it happen across a human being not on his guard.” Father Hendle is the author of an African grammar. He speaks of the language as very logical and as more musical than Italian. In fact, his read- ing of a story in the African tongue conveyed this impression immediately. The language is replete with vowels. The missicnary is stoutly built, has a strong, pleasant countenance and an eye that indicates that he has looked death in the face many times without flinching.

R, C, Ransom in a stirring sermon at Bethel church, New York, a few nights ago said: “Negroes pay taxes through rents and directly through the ownership of much property. Yet upon the police force, in the fire department, in the parks, etc., we are practically without Tepresentation in the army of city em- Ployees. In municipal affairs party names should count for less and less. The Negroes throughout this nation need a birth of civic consciousness. These fusion or reform administra- tions have had small use for our peo- ple. What we want is not a pat on the back and an election day cigar, but hundreds of thousands of dollars of the city’s money for services per- formed as employees in the various departments. We want influence with the school board, the police, fire, park and water departments. We do not want political meetings in our church- es, but churches which will meet the politicians with righteous demands.” New Mansion For Walcott at Malden.

D., Baltimore's Wide Awake Methodist Divine—How He Transformed a Church Into an Edifice of Beauty and Admiration. Trinity A. M. E. church, situated at Linden avenue and Biddle street, Baltimore, has been transformed into one of the most beautiful church edifices of the race. Under the pastorate of Rev. A. L. Gaines, D. D., the renovation began in August, and the church was opened to the public Sunday, Oct. 24. The renovation was made at a cost of $3,000, over $2,000 of which was raised at the reopening exercises. The seating capacity has been increased, new cathedral windows have been placed in the church, the outside has been beautifully painted, the inside has been artistically decorated, the floors have been recarpeted and the church has been wired and provided with brilliant electric lights. This, together with the $3,000 pipe organ which was recently installed, makes Trinity church an edifice of beauty and admiration. During the two years of the pastorate of Dr. Gaines nearly 300 members have been added. Trinity church is managed by possibly the most energetic officers to be found anywhere. The church is thoroughly organized, as will be seen from the following directory of officers: Rev. A. L. Gaines, D. D., pastor; Rev. C. Johnson, local deacon; trustees, Elias P. Harris, James Ward, Harry T. Burgess, John H. Washington, James Bruce, E. T. Martin, Samuel Johnson, Luther Tucker; stewards, Martin Farrish, W. C. Davis, Andrew Thompson, William F. Allen, William Gleaves, J. W. Martin, Alexander Cook, James E. Jolly, G. L. 'Pendleton; class leaders, J. W. Grooms, Daniel Jeffers, B. C. Wayman, Soloman Holmes, Benjamin Roberts, J. R. Johnson, James Frey, M. A. Johnson, Charles Turner, Benjamin Crowner, W. T. Brown, F. Matthews, A. L. Gaines, Frank Miles, Cyrus Bell, Edward Coxen; superintendent of Sunday school, T. J. Holliday; stewardesses, Fannie Brown, Annie L. Martin, Ella Thomas, Laura Thompson, Martha Allen, Hattie Gross, Annie Hales, Evelyn Olivers, Julia Monroe; presidents, W. M. M. society, Minnie L. Gaines; Church Aid, Cornelia Anderson; Parson's Aid, Sarah Johnson; Y. P. A., Hester P. Harris; Lend-a-Hand circle, Hattie Gross; Organ circle, Julia Monroe; Sons of Allen, Edward Coxen; Daughters of Allen, A. L. Tilghman; Pulpit Relief association, Ellen Gleaves; Female Ushers' association, Gertrude Fisher; Ushers' association, Charles Wise; A. C. E. league; Annie L. Martin; Rescue league, W. C. Davis; organist, W. L. Wilson; Mme. Maud Gross, choir directress. The successful pastorate of Dr. Gaines is no more than is expected of him. His entire ministry has been a busy one, and his work has made him one of the most prominent ministers of the A. M. E. connection. During his first pastorate at Rutledge Ga. he built a beautiful church. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. [Image of a man in a suit, resting his chin on his hand.] During his second pastorate in Atlanta, Ga., he remodeled and renovated St. James' church. At Norfolk, Va., he reduced the indebtedness of St. John's church from $18,000 to $11,000 and increased the membership from 1,185 to 1,621, and during his four years' pastorate at Portsmouth, Va., Emanuel church and parsonage were renovated and the membership greatly increased. During the three years of his presiding eldership in the Virginia conference the Norfolk district was brought to a very high standard of activity. During his five years' pastorate of Bethel church, Baltimore, just prior to taking charge of Trinity church, he paid off the entire mortgage of the the home of Bethel church. He was a member of the A. M. E. general conference of 1896 at Wilmington, N. C., of that of 1900 at Columbus, O., of that of 1904 at Chicago and of that of 1908 at Norfolk. Va. Dr. Gaines is eminently qualified for any position within the gift of the A. M. E. connection, and it is most probable that it will reward his industry and success by his elevation to a position of still greater responsibility and trust. STATE FAIR AT MACON. Annual Gathering Awakens New Interest—Major Wright's Great Work. The annual fair of the Georgia State Agricultural and Industrial association, which will be held at Macon, beginning Nov. 10, will be largely attended and record breaking in the variety of products represented and arrangement of exhibits. Major R. R. Wright, who is well known all over the south, is a man of ability and business tact and has done a great work for the advancement of our people. The idea of the fair is to show what has been accomplished in farm products, stock raising and other industrial pursuits. The benefits derived from these annual gatherings are farreaching in results. Perhaps no class of citizens are more highly benefited than the farmers. They get new ideas and learn by personal contact how to economize in the matter of farm labor and cost of production. Major Wright got his first idea of having a great celebration in 1913 commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the freedom of the race after seeing the results accomplished by one of these fairs a few years ago.

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. POPH.

President Taft tested the faith of the colored people to the utmost when he announced that appointments would not be made during his administration in Southern communities where it was distasteful. These appointments ever since the war have been the pride of the race and have served to encourage us in the belief that the national government, at least, sympathized with us, whatever the states might do. They have been but a small part of the machinery of government, nor have they added much to the aggregate of the race's earnings, but they have been our one ewe lamb, and just as in the Scriptural narrative, now it is to be taken away. So it is that we say the President has put on us the greatest trial of our faith in him. His high station, his repeated words of encouragement have inspired us with hope that he means to offset this loss in some way. But how long must we wait? Despair is ever at the elbow of the oppressed. The weaker race in the fight has no past victories, no tried prowess to buoy him up when failure seems imminent, and therefore it is the greater hardship that the President delays any good things he has in store for us. Out here in the West Washington is a myth so far as political appointments are concerned. Yet election after election we are loyal to the party. Nor does the situation locally make amends for national neglect. President Taft is too big a man to ignore us simply because we cannot help ourselves, yet he might as well ignore us, if he waits so long to act that all is dead, even hope. The frequent requests for persons to fill places and for work from the unemployed makes us feel that the person who will undertake an employment bureau for our people, will perform a public service. A few years ago there was a tremendous lot of energy expended in addresses to the world on behalf of the poor, downtrodden Negro. A lot of pretty talkers were heralded as men of mark. Where are they now? Except for the accentuation of race feeling, all these manhood rights agitators have left no real impress on their localities. Their lead was followed by a great host of petty political blackmailers until the welkin rang with protests. No doubt the work of honest intentioned men was hurt by the use of the same methods for petty gain, yet what merit there was in the system was too easily counterfeited to stand the test of a practical world. --- PAGE. 8.

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 under 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.
