FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN State, Historian & Natural History Society TWENTY-FIRST YEAR John Brown's Memory Lauded Thousands Gather In Old Historic Faneuil Hall .o Pay Tribute to the Man Who Struck a Deathblow at Human Slavery—Trotter a Fearless Champion. By N. B. DODSON. For patriotism, sincere devotion to the principles upon which the government rests, for high appreciation of those who created sentiment in favor of freedom and liberty for a race of people long held in abject slavery, the recent all day and evening celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the martyrdom of John Brown by our people in Boston surpassed any celebration of its kind in the annals of the now Greater Boston. The celebration was held under the auspices of the New England Suffrage league, with its noble hearted and fearless president, William Monroe Trotter, as the leading spirit. Faneuil hall rocked morning, afternoon and evening, when black and white men, women and children [Image of a man in a suit and tie]. WILLIAM MONKOR TROTTER. flocked to its historic doors to commemorate the man whom a great part of the American people consider as their savior. Women had the morning session almost entirely. In the afternoon orators and singers were mostly white, while in the evening all but one were colored men. Interesting relics were used in the decorations of the hall, including a bust of John Brown copied from one made at the time of his imprisonment and now owned by St. Monica's home on the Garrison estate in Roxbury. Bricks and wood from the fort which Brown defended with his life were shown to the audiences and called forth hearty applause. Packed almost to suffocation, the evening crowd listened and applauded the speakers as they reviewed the story of the champion of liberty and the history of the Negro race during the past fifty years. Rev. William Wade Ryan presided at the afternoon session. The oration was delivered by Frank B. Sanborn of Concord. Mr. Sanborn said in part: Invited to speak in this ancient sanctuary of liberty, which has witnessed two great revolutions and many small ones, my thought naturally turns back to the day we celebrate, the day of John Brown's martyrdom, fifty years ago. Then even Boston itself was not free. It had been subjugated not once but twice in the ten years preceding. What have we got in the place of slavery at the south? Not a condition of perfect civilization. I allow, but a state of things so much better than the old and fondly worshiped system of great plantations and runaway slaves, with the piratical slave trade looming in the near distance, that we may congratulate ourselves on the beneficent change. The Negro is free. He is a landowner. What is the duty of our colored fellow citizens who at this moment hold the balance of power between the two chief parties of the north and in a few of the southern states? Let them not be discouraged by the insolence of the southern zealots and the reaction of wealth against liberty in the north. Their condition is so much better than it was in slavery or even in the first ten years of emancipation that they can afford to be patient and to await the change in the current of opinion so constantly at ebb and flow. At the north they hold the balance of voting power and should exercise it in restraining the tendency to retrace the course initiated by Brown and carried to success by Lincoln. At the south the interest of industry is in their hands. They are landowners to a large extent and must continue to be the principal laborers there, not only in agriculture, but in the mechanical arts which are so much in demand. Albert E. Pillsbury said: "There are men to whom it would be as impossible to recognize a hero as to be one. Such persons could not be expected to appreciate the motives which impelled John Brown to take the course he did. "But," he said, "it was the shot fired at Harpers Ferry that started the avalanche which overwhelmed slavery in this country." W. W. Doherty said that all his life he had been an ardent Republican, except on one occasion when he bolted and went over to the opposition at the time his own party endeavored to pass legislation to unjustly prolong the probationary period of residence for immigrants. "And now," he said. "I do not believe in the kind of Republicanism that consents to the disfranchisement of the southern colored voters." Colonel N. P. Hallowell of the Fifty-fifth Massachusetts volunteers said that as a civil war veteran he was glad it had been permitted him to have a part in completing the work begun by John Brown. John Leary then spoke. Rabbi Eichler said: "As a member of a race that for centuries has suffered injustice I willingly place a wreath upon the grave of John Brown, and I hold in disgust the people who are trying today to rob the colored voter of his suffrage." Rev. S. M. Crothers declared that he wanted to stand up and be counted among those who believe in equal rights for all mankind and with those who wish to honor a brave man willing to give his life for his friend. William Monroe Trotter presided at the evening session. Dr. Horace Bumstead, late major of the Forty-third United States colored troops, spoke of some of the reasons why it was a good thing for the people that this celebration should take place. Letters were read from Mr. R. De Martie, present at the first anniversary of John Brown's hanging, telling of the closing of the meeting at Tremont temple and the compulsory adjournment to the colored church on Court street. Rev. Benjamin W. Farris of St. Paul's Baptist church took the place on the program allotted to Hon. A. H. Grimke, who was unable because of illness to be present. The speech of the evening was made by Rev. Reverdy C. Ransom of New York city. He said in part: John Brown was the incarnation of the spirit of freedom. It was the incarnation of the spirit of slavery that demanded his execution. What has the Negro done for himself during the fifty years since the execution of John Brown. One of the first acts was to take up arms to fight for the preservation of the Union and for freedom. The nation never had better soldiers than its black regiment. Freed, without a dollar or a foot of land, with the restraints of master withdrawn, he went to work. Throughout these years the Negro has gone steadily forward, increasing in wealth, in education, in culture and in strength of character. Standing in Ianeuil hall tonight, we ask, is Boston, which is the heart of New England, willing to take its stand for justice and fair play for the Negro? Having rendered the Negro politically helpless, the jimcrow laws were enacted as a natural sequence. The next step will be not to enforce, but to repeal, the fifteenth amendment. That this is the attitude of President Taft, however benevolent his intentions, leaves little room for doubt. I will not charge the president with the betrayal of the trust of a confiding people, but I will proclaim that which is known to all the world. He could not have been nominated to the office which he now holds without the votes of these black Republicans whose claim he now so frankly disallows. That the leaders of the Republican party are seeking to prepare the nation for this step is made clear by a suggestion re- Hurrah for the Trolley Excursion, by Campbell Chapel, Monday eve, June 6th.

FIVE CENTS A COPY But Senator Cullom brazenly suggests that the Republican party countenance a general disfranchisement of the Negro voters for no more patriotic motive than to win the support of southern congressmen and presidential electors to keep the Republican party in power. What we want is a man's chance. We ask for nothing more. We will be satisfied with nothing less. School Answers Pressing Need. The Afro-American School of Correspondence at Washington is incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia. It has capable instructors and comes in answer to a pressing need. It supplies a hungering desire and is a priceless boon for all seekers after real knowledge which will benefit those desiring to make the most of their lives. There are courses in theology, business, civil service, drawing, agriculture, domestic art, undertaking and embalming, with text books furnished. The secretary of the school is the Rev. Dr. W. Bishop Johnson, whose address is 403 N street, N. W., Washington. No Racial Lines Wanted In Business. The Southern Age says: The day is at hand when nothing but merit, regardless of all talk to the contrary, will tell to the advantage of individuals and communities as well. Codding along the line of expectation is injurious and will certainly prove disappointing to the coddled. The only true road to success for the individual as well as the community is strictly in line with the requirements of competition, and he who fails to observe this and in consequence bases his hope upon the frail structure of mere race identity is doomed to disappointment and signal failure. Why should men be valued according to accident of generation? This condition is certainly a lapse to barbarism deeper than any imagine. Men should not be condemned racially, but individually. The world shall learn that it is not the race but the spirit, not the constitution of blood or the color of skin but conduct that differentiates between men. RABBI HIRCH.

The business man is the most important man in any community, for it is business that makes any community, race or class of people prosperous. When one arrives in a community an impression of the prosperity of its inhabitants is derived from the business appearance and activity. So far as the negro is concerned what can you imagine that a stranger's impression would be of the prosperity of the Colorado negroes from their business? Where is it? Who is he? What are negroes doing in Colorado in a business way? Who employs? Who is employed in negro business? Who is responsible? These are the questions. When negroes go to a white man with a proposition to buy, what are their references? What bank can he refer to? What firms that you have been doing business with can be your references? What is the business experience of these men? Are there a dozen men in Colorado who can stand the commercial test in one body, to purchase $10,000 worth of goods for a business proposition, paying $5,000 cash and $5,000 on 30, 60 or 90 days' credit? If there are, why not start some kind of business and give employment to our girls and boys who have graduated from our mixed Colorado colleges, and not have them go south for employment? The opportunity is ripe for business enterprises of all kinds. There are barber shops, restaurants, rooming houses, clothes cleaners and shining parlors. No hotels, no department stores, no grocery, no butcher shops, no banks, and many other necessary business enterprises that can be established, and do a creditable business. There are two negro newspapers in Denver, both self-sustaining; one first class job printing office, and two upto-date undertakers. All other business is not of much consequence. The negro population of Colorado is principally of Southern extraction, and are inclined to support negro business enterprises, and do support them where the business is run on business principles. In this state, where negroes have all the privileges of white stores, who get and hold the trade, negro business men and women must be up-to-date and keep pace with commerce. If negroes could shave in white barber shops, there would not be as many negro barber shops as there are in Colorado. The Jungle Herder will tell you that is just the trouble, negroes have too many privileges in Colorado, and he won't patronize his own people. If negroes will go into business along the same line that the whites do, they will find that negroes will patronize their own, just the same as any other class sticks to their own. Negro merchants must co-operate for the employment of their own, and place them under obligation to patronize them, by helping the less fortunate to be independent of white business firms. The Jap, Jew, Dutch, Sweed, Italian, and all other race business men and leaders, provide for the masses, and the masses are in duty bound to support their firms. The same condition can be brought about by our business men and leaders. By leader I do not mean the talking leading negro, but the leader who has taken the lead and done something, and has accomplished some- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. thing of substantial credit. There are a lot of good substantial business negroes in Colorado, but they are beaten back from entering the fertile field beyond the Jungle by those wild beasts who guard every trail of opportunity, by their howl of "politics, religion, failure, wait, patience, and that the party that freed us will establish us." Race interest should not be governed by politics and religion altogether, or by what has been. It is the NOW and the FUTURE that makes the white man prosperous. He is not waiting, he is not patient (except when he deals with the negro). He is nervous, anxious and determined. He is ready to help us when we show the proper inclination to help ourselves, and be self-sustaining. He is getting impatient with his negro burden, and unless the negroes in Colorado get a move on themselves to help lift the burden of responsibility, he may expect at any time to see the wave of Southern disfranchisement and oppression coming this way, as immigration of the whites from the South is being solicited, and he is coming fast and in numbers. Fifty years ago the white man and the negro landed in Colorado together. There was nothing here but a broad, open country. No money and not much to eat. Their chances were equal. No prejudice and no difference in the race for independence. Look at the white man's position now, and compare it with the black man's. Most of the old timers have gone to the great beyond, and did not leave much to the credit of their children. I often hear them talk of the opportunities of their parents. Now just make a note of the condition of the old timers' children of 50 years ago, and figure out what will be the condition of our children 25 years from now, at the rate we are going. Is it not time for the Beast in the Negro's Jungle to stand up and look wise? I have been told by leading negroes that I did not know how to deal or do business with negroes. I admit all, after several attempts, which has qualified me to study the situation, and I am convinced that it is the Beast in the Negro's Jungle that I don't understand. I have no political aspirations in Denver, and from the advice of the Jungle Herder, I do not think I would attempt to do business in Denver, since my leading negro friends were kind enough to advise me of my incapacities. Others, who may contemplate doing business in Denver should appear before the Jungle Herder and pass an examination for qualification to do a negro business if they intend to engage in business here. The negro business men leave their interest to the politician and preacher instead of co-operating for business influence and advantages. What influence can a pig-head politician like the Black Moses of the Negro Democrats (and his ilk in the Republican party) of this state, bring to any business, or the standing of our representative citizens? What is needed is for the business men and professional men to get together and work by committees for influence and prestige, and not allow these whispering, snitching political pests to beat back those who are in the proper position to represent the race. It is only gall and nerve that these ignorant negroes assume that makes them the leaders. They are not made so by any appointment or anything they have accomplished for the race or themselves. They have made themselves so prominent that the whites have begun to believe that they are authorized, and judge us all by these assuming representatives.

Miss Viola Lyons desires all the members to meet next Wednesday night at her residence, 1914 Washington, when final reports of the arrangement committee will be made. The outlook this year is exceedingly bright for success and everybody is talking I. G. A. The Beast in the Jungle men should be urged by the respectable class of our people, to do their duty in harmony and by committee, and send these worthless snitchers and defamers of the race's standing in Colorado to the rear, where they belong. The women are better qualified in Colorado for business than the men, and their showing along business lines is far superior to those of the men. There is one enterprise that is needed to be established by the women, and that is a Woman's Exchange, where my wife can send her eggs, butter, fruit and vegetables and other product to exchange for an apron or a wrapper, tidy, etc., that other women have exchanged for produce, etc. Such an institution, in the form of a department store, would furnish employment for girls. Now, let the women get together and talk business instead of politics, as you need not put your dependence on the Jungle Herders of the political beast to lead us in the path of race prosperity. Twenty-five to 33 per cent. of the voters of this state are independent, and determine the elections of either party. The negro should be in the independent ranks, and stick together as a race for race benefit, no matter what political mask you sail under. There is no danger of your turning white after an election, and the only way to become recognizable before and after an election is by race unity, and have our demands presented by a committee appointed by the negroes of the community of which you live.

The prospect of establishing the Provident hospital in Brooklyn is very favorable. The movement was started about fifteen months ago by prominent medical physicians, dentists and trained nurses. Through the energy of the promoters a bill is now before the senate judiciary committee at Albany favoring the project. In order to show their earnestness and to explain the view of such an institution for Afro-Americans in Brooklyn a delegation of prominent citizens recently visited the capital and appeared before the senate judiciary committee to urge the passage of the pending measure. The delegation consisted of George E. Wibecan, Jr.; Drs. Roland R. Johnson, Owen M. Waller, James G. Trimble, Walter N. Beekman and Attorney D. Macon Webster. Dr. William L. Hunter is also one of the promoters of the proposed enterprise. ```markdown ``` General Jobuing Promptly Attended To Business Address 3131 HUMBOLDT STREET Notice the thick rubber tread "A" and puncture strips "B" and "D," also rim strip "H" to prevent rim cutting.

We are pleased to note that the Carnegie hero fund commission has duly recognized the brave deeds of Frank Forrest and Mrs. H. Tomlinson of Wadesboro, N. C. In August, 1909, while the Pee Dee river was in flood, Colonel H. G. Myers of Memphis and A. J. Little of Little Mills were going home, traveling in a buggy, and attempted to cross the river. They were in the ferryboat, which was in charge of three Negroes, Frank Snuggs, Jule Snuggs and Oscar Colson. When about halfway across the river the front chain slipped its fastening, running the front end of the boat downstream until it was at right angles with the current. The current was running very swiftly and overturned the boat, and it sank. The occupants of the boat, with the exception of one of the boat hands, were swept away by the current. On the bank of the river at this time were Mrs. H. Tomlinson and Frank Forrest, Negroes. They immediately took a small rowboat and went to the aid of the party. Oscar Colson was clinging to the sunken ferryboat. Tomlinson and Colson were both drowned, and Forrest was swept off the boat and down the stream. Later his son, Greely Forrest, rescued Frank Forrest, and the two together went back to the wreck and brought off all who were alive. Neither Colonel Myers nor Mr. Little was infured. Shortly after this the Rev. T. W. Chambliss of Wadesboro brought the matter to the attention of the Carnegie hero fund commission, with the result that an investigation was made and a full report of the incident sent to the commission at Pittsburg. The outcome of this investigation is that the commission has given bronze medals, one to the family of Harley Tomlinson and the other to Frank Forrest. In addition to the medals, the commission has awarded the widow of Harley Tomlinson $15 a month as long as she lives, and Frank Forrest gets Madam J. M.

Then too, there was the all-absorbing contest between popular musicians. This was the feature of the fair. A total of 2,697 votes were cast, a number so large that the judges were up till 3 a.m. counting them. Miss Beatrice Thrashley won the first prize, receiving 1014 votes; Mrs. Faulkner was second with 995 and Mrs. Mabel DeFrantz was third with 573. Rank Holly got the "also ran" distinction. The one feature of the fair that makes it most notable was the financial success, clearing nearly $400, and the social success, with the pastor, Rev. Over, out of the city.

It Is Universal In Its Scope and Not Confined to Any Particular Race. "Public Education In the South as Affected by Disfranchisement" was the subject of an able address delivered before the National Negro conference on the last day of its recent meeting in New York by Superintendent of Public Schools William H. Maxwell. Rev. Horace Bumstead, Professors Du Bois, Kelly-Miller, John Dewey and Jacob Schiff also delivered forceful addresses. Superintendent Maxwell said in part: "The power to work, family life, acting in common for a common purpose, religion and philanthropy are some of the elements of the 'world movement' of the last century that distinguish modern civilizations from those that have risen and fallen in the past. I take it that it is one element of philanthropy—one section of this 'world movement'—that we are assembled to discuss, and that one element is the education of those whose intellectual training has until recently been largely or altogether neglected. "Do not suppose that this problem is peculiarly a problem of the south, either of the poor whites or of the Negro population of the south. It is a problem that has forced itself and is forcing itself upon every progressive community, a problem that has made itself felt in Berlin and London as well as in Chicago, Atlanta and New York. The poor we have always with us. But that is not all. The halt, the maimed and the blind, the deaf and dumb, the tuberculosis, the crippled, the semifeeble, the laggards, we have also always with us. The training of these defective ones is. I take it, no small part of the current world movement. In spite of the selfish rich, in spite of the shiftless poor, the kindly spirit of humanity is winning the battle and procalims that the weak ones of the earth shall not be permitted to perish in their weakness, the blind shall be given eyes through the sense of touch, the dumb shall be taught to speak, the backward shall be aided, every one according to the measure of his ability shall be trained and endowed with that greatest of blessings—the power to work in some line suited to his capacity. This world humanitarian movement lies behind every one of the recent developments of public education. "These problems here in New York city are the same in kind as the problems that confront the educators of the south. Here we have great masses of backward children. In the south you have 10,000,000 of people who up to the close of the civil war knew nothing of school education. To me the wonder is not that these people have accomplished so little, but that they have accomplished so much in so short a time." The newly elected officers of the Andrew Carnegie Hospital association of Pittsburg are: Mrs. I. S. Bryant, president; vice presidents, Mrs. William Manly and Mrs. A. Wallace; Mrs. R. M. Jones secretary and Mrs. M. M. Brady treasurer. These women are doing a splendid work and are making many personal sacrifices for the uplift of humanity. Their influence in the community is helpful and their example worthy of emulation. There Is Virtue In Being a Full Blood Negro—Louisiana Supreme Court Makes Important Ruling. According to a decision handed down by the Louisiana supreme court on Monday, April 25, when the law says "Negroes" it designates people of full African descent and does not include "persons of color"—octoroons, quadroons or even mulattoes. In holding thus the court puts an end to several prosecutions of men accused of violating state laws, passed after a long educational campaign, for the purpose of preventing miscegenation and the consequent deterioration of the white race. The decision will therefore be regarded as of great importance as well as of great interest not only in Louisiana, but all through the south, in every part of which the disastrous results of racial mingling, in and out of marriage, have of late been the subject of much and serious attention. The decision of the court is, of course, a practical repeal or making void of such legislation as has already been passed with a view to keeping the white and black races apart, and equally, of course, it is in direct contradiction of the long established theory that any recognizable fraction of Negro blood fixes the status of the person in whose veins it flows. This was the invariable rule in slavery days, and it has survived emancipation in the drawing of social lines no less in the north than in the south. It is indeed a little humiliating to Caucasian pride that an eighth, a quarter or a half of black blood should count for more than a half, three-quarters or seven-eighths of white blood.

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 is 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. POPB.

R. M. Whiting Excepts to Statement Made by Noted Educator. Major R. R. Morton, commandant at Hampton institute, in an address delivered at the recent meeting of the Armstrong association held in the Academy of Music in Brooklyn is credited with having said. "I would rather take my chances as a Negro in Mississippi than right here in New York city." To this statement of the major R. M. Whiting of Brooklyn takes exception and says: "It is a fact that the Negro in the south has a greatly better chance of coming into his best development than the Negro right among us. Tuskegee, Hampton and kindred schools have wide open doors for those who have ambition to rise in the scale of being. May the number of such institutions greatly increase and millions go from the north for their maintenance. But shall we not care for the Negro children and youth among us and give them full chance to make of themselves all that God makes possible? "I was told recently by a gentleman prominent in church life and in business circles that God had decreed that they should be a nation of servants, and when I asked for the Scripture for that he referred to the passage. 'Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall be be.' I confess to being shocked that in this year of our Lord 1910 such a notion should be entertained by such a man. "In the first place, it was not God's decree. The words were uttered by an angry man just recovering from a drunken debauch. Noah's anger was aroused by the disrespect shown him by one of his sons. Why he passed by Ham, who was the offender, and cursed his son Canaan does not appear. Possibly it was because he had not fully recovered. But suppose that God had decreed that there should be a nation of servants. Could that be a reason why they should not be God fearing, intelligent, capable, skillful servants? The Master said, 'I am among you as one that serveth,' and 'Whosoever will be chief among you let him be your servant.' "There are many of the Negro race among us and many more coming. For the adults we can do but little, and they do not ask for anything except fair treatment, but for the children we must provide for self protection, if not for philanthropic reasons, such scholastic training as our grammar schools supply and such industrial training as will enable them to compete for employment in the labor world and come to mature years self supporting and self respecting." Will Stay Where God Has Put Them. Major Moton, commandant of the Hampton cadets, Hampton, Va., said in a recent speech in Brooklyn while on his northern tour: "You have all heard of the mental and industrial progress of the black man, but I can say a word for his physical progress. He has kept pace with the white man in that respect and is liable to stay with him. I feel sorry for the white man who has to assume this vexing problem of the Negro, but you give the black man a chance and your burden will be less heavy. Because God has brought us from Africa and put us side by side with the greatest white people on earth we are going to stay here." THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. TRUE REFORMERS ACTIVE. Working to Have Delinquent Members Paid Up by June 4. President William L. Taylor of the Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers, will make his annual visit to the northern grand division of the order the second week in June. On Thursday evening, June 9, the New York division, of which J. H. M. Taylor is chief, will hold a grand mass meeting. Members of the order in Greater New York are looking forward to the occasion with much interest. There are about 900 members in New York city alone. Chief Taylor has been at the head of the work in New York for about fourteen years and has managed it well. The order is also quite strong in Brooklyn. James H. Crawley is chief, and during his administration the membership has greatly increased. A movement is now on foot to have all delinquent members pay up their back dues by June 4, so that there may be no decrease in membership when the president comes to review the work. SOCIAL EQUALITY AS SEEN IN HOUSTON, TEX. Business White Men and Negro Women of the "Underworld" Characterized as Privileged Characters. The Houston (Tex.) Freeman in its issue of May 14 says that white men and Negro women are privileged characters and can do as they please is very forcibly illustrated by the "joy ride" indulged in Houston the first of the week, when a party of four white men and four Negro women went out autoing in broad daylight in Mr. F. E. Pye's automobile. If this isn't social equality we don't know what to call it. On the other hand, however, Negro men and white women are slaves, it meaning death and ostracism to them should they even imitate associating together as did those white business men and Negro women of the under world. Editor C. N. Love is a Houstonian, and he ought to know. But there is one thing certain about this whole business of personal contact between white folks and colored folks—they cannot be legislated apart. If the persons in question were agreeable to each other and their motives for so associating were beyond suspicion, so let it be. We would not uphold immorality in any class of persons, whether rich or poor, white or colored. Automobiling in broad daylight is all right, but will the sagacious editor please explain the term "white business men and Negro women of the underworld?" Tell us, Brother Love, the difference between the contracting parties. The executive committee of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs is making extensive preparations for the forthcoming second annual session, which will be held in Geneva, N. Y.. July 5.

BUSY WORKER IN MANY FIELDS The General Association of Virginia Has Had a Remarkable Growth Under His Efficient Leadership—Brilliant Scholar, Successful Pastor, Great Organizer and Leader of Men. The Rev. Dr. George W. Goode, the subject of this sketch, was born in Patrick county, Va., in 1865. While he was quite young his parents removed to Smythe county, the same state, where young Goode began his education in the public school. Later his parents again moved, to Marion. Va., where his education was continued until he completed the high school course at the age of sixteen. At eighteen he began teaching and followed this until 1888. In the spring of 1886 he was converted while teaching a country school. In 1889 he gave up teaching and entered the Richmond Theological seminary, where he spent three years in the classical course and three years in the theological course. During his course he was employed as student teacher and taught arithmetic and Greek to beginners. In his third year in school he was called to the Salem Baptist church, West Point, Va., and the next year to the Mount Zion church, Church View, Va. One year after his graduation he was called to the Calvary Baptist church, Danville, Va., a young, struggling church with bright prospects. This church was about three years old and had a small but working membership. At once he took hold of the work, and now the church counts on a membership of about 600. More than 1.100 souls have acknowledged Christ under him. The church ranks among the best trained, most loyal and spiritual churches of the state. In June, 1896, he was married to Miss Mary L. Gaines of Richmond, the daughter of Alexander and Sarah Gaines. She is a graduate of the Richmond high and normal school and was for seven years a teacher in the Baker school. In the state work the Rev. Mr. Goode occupies a prominent place. He is willing and ready to do his duty anywhere and at any time he is called upon. From the organization of the general ```markdown ``` PAGE.8 THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. REV. DR. GEORGE W. GOODB association ne has been a member. He has conscientiously advocated its principles. He is true to its principles, strong in faith and clean in character, being one of the strongest men in the organization and the state, and finally the constituency of the general association in its session in Charlottesville, Va., elected him to the presidency. He was wholly unaware of its intention to elect him to this place of honor, and when approached by his admirers as a man to be depended upon, a man of stability, he said: "Ten years from now will do for me to be president of this great body. I have plenty of time." But the body was so determined that it became necessary for two other strong men to decline running, and he was elected unanimously and given an ovation. The growth of the body can be plainly seen. The number of state and district bodies, as well as churches, to represent in this great body has been largely increased until there are now three state bodies. fifteen district bodies and not less than 200 separate churches represented in the general association. He has proved himself a proficient presiding officer, positive, but quiet and unassuming. He can manage the body with the greatest ease. How this man manages to do the work he does is a puzzle to all. For fourteen years he has pastored the Calvary Baptist church and given an afternoon service to a church in the country, eight miles distant, once a month for seven years. TEAMS. SPORTS AND THE THE STAGE By LEON PRYOR LANGFORD AND BURNS. Sam Langford and Tommy Burns, former heavyweight champion, have been signed for a 25-round fight on the afternoon of Labor Day, Sept. 5. The men will fight at catch weights. Tom McCary, promoter, has agreed to give Burns $15,000, win, lose or draw, and Sam is to get $10,000, lose, win or draw. It seems that Jack Johnson is the only colored fighter who knows how to dictate about an even break in the money question with the white promoters. Just because Burns is white he must have $5,000 more than Langford, win, lose or draw. Supposed to the best piano entertainer in Chicago, known as San Toy, will enter vaudeville this season as a comic pianologist. He plays with hands feet, nose, mouth, ears and, in fact, plays every way mentionable. WILSON AND GOLF. Who have just closed ten weeks at the Majestic Theater, Philadelphia are supposed to be one of the best colored teams in vaudeville. They are the original break-down dancers of the south. One of the cleverest little actresses on the stage today is Lottie Grady. Formerly of the Chicago-Pekin Stock Company. Miss Grady has just closed the season with S. H. Dudley in "Smart Set." The first of last season she started out from Chicago with the "Mr. Lode of Koal" Company, but later joined "Smart Set." Miss Grady had a very successful year and will be seen this coming season in vaudeville as a singing and dancing comediene. YOUNG GANS GETS A DRAW. After 20 rounds of fast and clever fighting, Young Gans, the clever colored lightweight of Denver, gets a draw with the Battling Dane at Rock Springs, Wyo., last Monday night. Gans made a better showing than a lot of the dopsters thought he would and now he is considered one of the toughest little men in the ring, and is on the road to fame. E. W. Dickerson, who refereed the bout, says Gans will certainly make the lightweight champion of the world if he will continue to train and keep himself in good condition. Gans is well pleased with the verdict of getting a draw with the Dane, as he is one of the best in his class. The one and only great colored straight man the country has ever known, is in the person of George Walker, the late partner of the world famous negro comedian, Bert Williams, who has been ill for the last two years, will be seen this coming season behind the footlights as of old with a new company composed of 40 of the best colored talent the world affords. Mr. Walker is now living in New York and is fast regaining his health. He will open the season in New York about the 1st of September, with a company by the name of Walker and Walker. THE MEN OF THE R. M. A. CLUB. There was a large crowd last Sat- CALVIN YOUNG. LOTTIE GRADY. GEORGE WALKER. urday night at the club in attendance to the sparring bout between Kid Coker and Kid Snowden; both of the boys showed up in great form, both being clever, fast and snappy. They boxed six rounds to a draw, but Kid Snowden being the more aggressive of the two, had a shade the better of the bout. The late and new thing among the pleasure seekers of Denver is the Rocky Mountain Athletic Club, one of the finest clubs in the West, where gambling is strictly forbidden. Victor Walker is president and Henry Panks is treasurer. They are the men who know how to do things. Duke is the famous club mixer and the inventor of many different drinks. His latest drink is the Royal Duke Comet Cocktail and it's a "Joe Dandy." Little Smart is the pool and billiard expert; he teaches the new and trims the old. And they all wear a smile that won't wear off at the Rocky Mountain Club. It seems rather funny that there are at least four good colored base ball teams in Denver and out of those four teams I could say they play about one game a month. Now, managers, where is your thinking cap? We want to see you all play ball. Hurrah for the Trolley Excursion, by Campbell Chapel, Monday eve, June 6th.

The program for the evening, which was under charge of Curtis Harris, was rendered by the pick of the more mature performers of the city. The musical numbers were beyond description and individual praise would include them all. To be brief, one needed to nave heard it to appreciate how good it was. On the same evening the Utopian Club gave another of its delightful dances at Dana Hall.
