TWENTY-FIRST YEAR High Honor For Estelle E. Gibbs Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Gibbs of Hoboken, N. J., Wins First Prize For Highest Average Over Thousands of White Pupils-Gold Medal Presented by Mayor Gonzales. No greater encouragement comes to the race at this time along educational lines than the splendid records which our youths, young men and women, are making in their studies in the various high schools and academies. In English and the higher branches of learning, in athletic pursuits, music and art many of them have scored signal victories. It all goes to show that where equal opportunity is given, home training and environment being similar, Afro-Americans are just as capable of grasping and retaining literal, manual or industrial subjects as any other class of persons. The recent triumph of Miss Estelle E. Gibbs of Hoboken, N. J., over the entire school population of 10,000 whites in making the highest average in her studies is sufficient evidence to prove the truthfulness of the above statement. At the graduating exercises of the public school Miss Gibbs was awarded the first prize, a gold medal. Her average in six subjects was 99 1-3 per cent. She is the only Afro-American girl in Hoboken who has ever achieved such honors and the only one who has graduated from the grammar school to the high school. In all of her studies save one Miss Gibbs received 100 per cent. In geography her mark was 96. In history, civics, spelling, arithmetic and grammar she was perfect. In the test examination Miss Gibbs selected the hardest questions. She is also gifted in music, which subject she has given much attention, and instead of pursuing a further literary course she will devote her time to the study and teaching of music. This victory, however, was not won without hard study for it is said that the girl spent little or no time with other matters. She went in to win; her aim was fixed, her standard was high, and she worked up to it. As has already been stated, home training and environment mean much to the pupil that achieves special distinction in his studies. Mrs. J. F. Gibbs, mother of Estelle, is herself an educated woman, having been graduated from the Bishop Payne Divinity and Industrial school, Petersburg, Va., before coming north. The encouragement of parents goes a long Mary Louise MISS ESTELLE E. GIBBS. way toward snapping the aims and purposes of their children. We must let our children feel that we are with them in their efforts to advance themselves along right lines in morals, religion, education and occupation. We should know their difficulties and assist them in overcoming them we should know their weak places and aim to strengthen them; their aspirations and help them on the road to success. With these essential elements kept steadily in view there should be no fear or misgivings as to the feature status of our race in the various callings in life.

Normal and Theological college since Jan. 1. President W. H. McRidley and his able group of teachers are doing real conscientious work, and they richly deserve the support given for the work of the college. I. G. Ai MAKES GOOD. Notwithstanding the backset intended for the I. G. A. this year, the organization, considering its circumstances, has done wonderful and The Statesman publicly congratulates the acting president, Miss Viola Lyons, who worked so nobly in this cause. Special mention is made of the efforts of the decorating and refreshment committees. Rev. J. N. Wallace delivered one of the most logical and fact-telling and fact-suggestive sermons Sunday at the People's Presbyterian church that the I. G. A. has ever listened to. It was full of enough thought for the present and future to keep all the graduates thinking and devising means to protect and progress the race. Tuesday night marked an additional epoch in our history for success and prayers. For the first time for years has the organization emerged out of debt and President A. G. Fallings will start with the slate clean of debt. The following program was rendered to the credit of the participants as well as hearers: Music, Miss Rhode Anderson; welcome address, by Dr. Thomas Hazel; response, by Mr. Albert Robinson of E. D. H. S., and Miss Martha Hubbard of the State University; vocal solo, Miss Senora Finley; address, "Experience Abroad," Miss F. M. Branch; vocal solo, Miss Eva Carter; president's annual message, Miss Viola Lyons; musical selections by Miss Rhode Anderson. The following officers were elected to guide the destinies of the association: A. G. Fallings, president; Miss Eva Carter; vice-president; Miss Virgie Webster, secretary; Attorney Geo.

JACK JOHNSON AND JEFFRIES. Well, it's just one dern thing after another. Who can tell whether Jack and Jim will ever fight? Jack Johnson dogged Jeff for six or seven years and at the end of that time made him sign for a fight. Now comes the cruel governor of the state of California, Gillette, and says there will be no fight in that state July 4th if he has anything to do with the laws of the state, and from the looks of things he is the head. Reno, Nev., looks to be the only suitable place where they would be accommodated properly. To figure on the gate admission two months ago Rickard and Gleason could figure about $600,000. Today they think they would be lucky with a $300,000 house. The governor being the cause of a $300,000 deficiency. BERT WILLIAMS The great colored comedian, will spend his vacation in and around New York as he says the great White Way has got him going also. SAM LANGFORD AND KETCHELL. These two middleweights, or light heavyweights, will probably fight in the same ring in which Jack and Jeff will spill their blood just to make a few hundred thousand dollars July 4th, at Reno, Nev. GRANTS AND JONES. I suppose everybody saw the great colored vaudeville company at the Pantages this week? Well, if you didn't you missed the treat of your life. They are one of the best song and dance companies on the road. One of their great song hits is "The Barbers' Ball." They will play the springs next week, St. Joe and then Chicago, where they will close the season of 25 weeks of the Pantages. NEGROES AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. After one year's hard rehearsing, George Williams and Harry Dehart of Boston will make there debut on the stage this summer as being two of the cleverest mandolin and banjo players in the country. CHATTMAN WINS OVER JENKINS. Kid Chattman got a clean decision over Kid Jenkins last Monday night at the R. M. A. Club. They were to have sparred six rounds but Kid Jenkins blew up in the third round and Chattman won the match. Kid Berry and Kid Coulston boxed three fast, clever rounds, Berry being the cleverer of the two. THE FRED MAYO RECEPTION. The young colored athlete of the Western College was given a grand reception last Thursday night by four of his college chums, at the home of his mother, Mrs. R. W. Hill, 834 Broadway. Fred Clarke, Guy Coker, Ray Crummer, Eddie Plummer made it a grand success. Everybody had a good time.

At last the boys have gotten themselves together and if the colored people of Denver want to see a good game of baseball go out to Broadway park today and tomorrow and watch these boys hold their own. The R. M. A. Club will play the Pueblo Rocky Mountain Giants today and a doubleheader game will be played tomorrow afternoon. Both teams being in good form and say that everybody will get his money's worth. I want to see how many colored baseball fans there are in Denver. YOUNG BRUCE.

Given by Improvement Board, Mamie Jeter, President; V. W. C. Williams, Pastor. Last Friday afternoon feminine beauty and attractiveness recieved its most perfect exemplification at Dania hall on the occasion of the reception tendered the State Federation by the City Federation. The delegates and visitors to the city were out in full numbers, together with society's contingent here at home. The myriad of pretty gowns, the charm of the decorations, music and service will long linger in the minds of those who attended. About three hundred ladies were present and the Statesman reporter was a daring soul to thrust himself amidst so many of earth's real rulers. The reception was in charge of numerous committees and the receiving line was long. When the afternoon was over there could not but have been a larger personal acquaintance for all as well as the pleasure they had. A feature of the reception was the large use of automobiles and carriages by those who attended. It was a fitting close to one of the best sessions ever held by the State Federation. In the report of the prizes awarded for art work last week, by some mistake two different kinds of work and their doers were mixed. They should have read that Mrs. Travick, of the Self Improvement Club, was awarded a prize for the prettiest sofa pillow, and Mrs. Moral Keelan was awarded a prize for the best piece of battenburg. She was also of the Self Improvement Club. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. The Sunshine Club will meet next Thursday evening with Mrs. Wesley Lyons, 1914 Washington street.. All members wanted.

Institution at Winston-Salem Has Greatly Lessened Race Friction. The state of North Carolina has made an appropriation of $12,000 to the Slater Industrial and State Normal school for Afro-Americans at Winston-Salem, N. C., on condition that those interested in the school shall raise a like amount by popular subscription. The trustees have issued an appeal to friends of education among our people asking for subscriptions. They do not ask any person to give more than $1 and seem confident there are enough liberal minded persons in this country to make up the $12,000 needed. They say that educating and Christianizing the Negro is not a local question, but one of national importance and the only solution of the race problem. It is asserted that the influence of the Slater school has greatly eliminated race friction in that community. The contributions should be sent to William A. Blair, vice president of the People's National Bank, at Winston-Salem. ```markdown ``` Carpenters and Builders General Jobbing 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.

Manacer Denver Office SELECT ORGANIZATION AMONG SINGLE WOMEN. Novel Features of the Bachelor Girls' Club of New York, Which Has Become Very Popular. One of the most novel as well as interesting organizations for women in New York is the Bachelor Girls' club. The plans for the new institution had their origin in the thrift and industry of Miss Lucilla S. Hill. The organization was perfected about six months ago with a small membership. It was a success from the start and has steadily grown in membership and popularity. Miss Hill has given much time and study to new methods for social and intellectual development among the members. The club is the only one of its kind for Afro-American women in New York. Candidates for membership are required to furnish satisfactory evidence of good moral character. They must also be vouched for as to their age. Each member must agree not to marry unless due notice is given to the club and that the man whom she intends to marry is fully capable of bettering her condition. The social functions of the club are unique. Some are given only for the benefit of the members, while others are given for both the members and their friends. The invited guests are, of course, all men and must be those who are known to be in favor of marriage. The secrets of the club must not by any means be divulged to outsiders on pain of expulsion from membership. In the matter of occupation, each member agrees to look out for the others in the event of any member becoming unemployed. They are also agreed as to the kind of occupation and the salary paid. This rule is to be strictly adhered to. Madam J. M. Mason DRESSMAKING PARLORS Connected with the London Clothes Cleaning and Pressing Co. 76-78 Broadway Denver, Colo.

Strong—Substantial Reserve Fund For Members. By MAYMIE G. WILLIAMS. Owing to the fact that many of the white accident companies of Minnesota were discriminating against the Negro and seeing the vast amount of good a Negro company in St. Paul could accomplish, Joseph S. Strong conceived the idea of starting a mutual company and, with the co-operation of Thomas R. Morgan, conferred with Attorney W. T. Francis, who thought the idea plausible. The would be pessimists tried to dishearten them, but the Cosmopolitan Mutual Casualty company was organized on the co-operative and mutual plan in May, 1905, and commenced business in October of the same year with the following incorporators: Joseph S. Strong, Thomas R. Morgan, William T. Francis, J. H. Dunn, J. Q. Adams, H. F. McIntyre. JOHN H. HARRIS JOSEPH S. STEONG. John H. Charleston, P. E. Reid and J. Edgar Murphy. They had the assistance of forty-four promoters, consisting of some of the best Negro citizens in St. Paul. No company has done more than the Cosmopolitan Mutual Casualty company considering the uphill work it has had to undergo. The company pays from $20 to $60 per month for accident, $40 per month for sickness and $100 for death, whether natural or accidental. The officers are all responsible and race loving men. The company is not operated for the gain of a few people, but for the benefit of its policy holders. The most valuable feature of this insurance is that it gives each policy holder a free medical certificate which entitles the holder to the professional services of the company's physician. Dr. Val Do Turner, a graduate of Meharry Medical college, Nashville, Tenn., is the medical director. He is a con- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. scientious worker for the company and looks after its members as carefully as if he were receiving $3 a visit. Mr. Thomas R. Morgan, secretary of the company, is also local agent. He states that the outlook of the company is encouraging and that in the course of a few years it will be able to employ quite a number of our young people. Owing to the hustling qualities of Mr. Morgan he has been able to capture a vast amount of the railroad porters' and waiters' insurance. The company is under the supervision of the state insurance commissioner, and his actuaries examine the books of the company yearly for the protection of the policy holders. It has a reserve fund of 10 cents on each dollar paid in deposited with the insurance commissioner. This reserve fund cannot be spent, but when a sufficient amount has been accumulated it can be invested for the benefit of the policy holders. Within the course of a few years it hopes to erect a suitable building, in which will be the company's principal office. The company holds the distinction of being the first and only Negro insurance company operated in the northwest. Coming Y. M. C. A. Basketball Games.

HIGH SCHOOL CLOSES Baltimore Institution Graduates Large Class—Requirements of Students. The twenty-second annual commencement of the Baltimore (Md.) colored high school, held on Friday, June 17, was a notable event. The Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson delivered the invocation previous to the address to the graduating class, which was delivered by Professor W. E. B. Du Bols. The faculty is composed of a group of capable colored teachers, through whose untiring efforts the school has grown in efficiency and popularity as an educational center for nine years. Professor Mason A. Hawkins, principal of the school, is a graduate of both Morgan college, Baltimore, and Howard university, Washington. Many of the graduates of the school have entered higher institutions of learning, in which they have won high honors. Gough McDaniels, who won one of the annual prizes at Brown university this year, is one of them. The curriculum of the school is of a high standard, and students are required to measure up in both their studies and deportment before a certificate of graduation is issued to them at the yearly commencement.

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."

Led by Councilman Thomas W. Fleming, the Colored Republicans of Cleveland Have Refused a Renomination to the Hon. Henry T. Eubanks-Young, Aggressive Men to the Front. The political situation in Ohio is becoming extremely interesting. Especially is this true among the colored Republicans of Cleveland. Candidates are looming up on all sides for the state legislature. It has been the custom of the Republicans of Cleveland for a good many years to place a colored man on the state ticket. Accordingly at a recent meeting Attorney William R. Green received the nomination for the state legislature to succeed the honorable Henry T. Eubanks. For some time, it is said, party leaders in Cleveland have been considering the expediency of renominating Representative Eubanks. In this they have been largely governed by the trend of public sentiment in political circles. It all came about from the fact that during the last session of the legislature Mr. Eubanks saw fit to vote for the Elson telephone bill. While Representative Eubanks no doubt voted his convictions, public sentiment was strongly against the measure. Two white legislators from Cleveland also voted for the Elson bill along with Mr. Eubanks. Their actions in this matter have caused widespread dissatisfaction, and the political war is on in earnest. That the political deathknell of Henry T. Eubanks has been sounded loudly may be gleaned from the fact that the Cleveland Journal in a recent editorial withdrew its support from Mr. Eubanks. The Journal favored the nomination of Alexander H. Martin, William R. Green or Harry E. Davis. The Journal's first choice was Alexander H. Martin; but, finding that he was slated for a desirable position in the office of the attorney general in Washington, it turned to Lawyer Green. As a practicing attorney Mr. Green has been very successful during his fifteen years' residence in Cleveland. He is the son of the Hon. John P. Green and is the esteemed president of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men. As a military man Mr. Green looms up strongly. He is the captain of Company D, Ninth infantry, Ohio national guard. He is also happily married. Councilman Thomas W. Fleming, the well known lawyer and versatile politician, made the speech nominating Mr. Green. The nomination is viewed as another victory for the progressive young colored Republicans of Cleveland. Among the men to be reckoned with in the political balliwicks of the city is Nahum Daniel Braacher, editor of the Cleveland Journal. Closely following Attorneys Fleming and Martin in activity and influence in politics are Samuel E. Woods, Robert I. Drake and a host of other young men of ability, experience and integrity. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. CONFERENCE OF NEGRO COLLEGE PRESIDENTS. Meeting at Atlanta University Attended by Many Distinguished Educators—State Colleges Recommended. Fourteen colleges were represented at the recent conference of Negro college presidents held at Atlanta (Ga.) university. There were also present representatives of the American Baptist Home Mission society, the American Missionary association, the Freedman's Aid society, the John F. slater fund and the Jeanes fund. Among those present were Dr. James H. Dillard, formerly of Tulane university, but now general agent of the Slater and Jeanes funds; President Gates of Fisk university, President Dunton of Claflin, President Kumler of Walden, Chaplain T. G. Stewart, U. S. A., retired, of Wilberforce; Dean L. B. Moore of Howard, President Crogman of Clark and Dr. George Sale of the Baptist Home Mission society. The representatives held three sessions and discussed the need and supply of colleges, the curriculum and the financial support of colleges. The sessions were of unusual interest and value, and the conference concluded with the following statement: First.—There is an increased and pressing demand for college trained Negroes. Second.—The Negro graduates are at present, with very few exceptions, usefully and creditably employed. Third.-The courses of study in these colleges do not call for any peculiar modification, but should, on the whole, conform to the general type of curriculum designed for the preparation of broadly educated men to take their places in modern civilization. Fourth.-There should be at least one college for Negro students in each state, liberally endowed. Fifth.-There should be every effort toward co-operation between colleges in the same locality, to avoid unnecessary duplication of work. Sixth.-Negro public high schools are greatly needed in the south. Seventh.-We believe in perfect honesty in living up to catalogue requirements of admission. Eighth.-The amount of Greek and Latin in colleges should be gradually reduced. Ninth.-The time given to natural science, English, history and sociology should be increased. Tenth.-We believe that vocational training is a pressing need of Negroes, but that it should be preceded and accompanied by as much cultural training as is practicable. There are two Afro-Americans in the senior class at Bowdoin college, in Maine—Samuel Herman Dreear of Washington and Arthur Alexander Madison of Montgomery, Ala. Mr. Dreear has recently been elected to membership in the German society, the Deutscher Verein, election to which is based on rank. Mr. Madison has also made a splendid record in his studies and expects to make teaching his profession. Allegheny Baptists Indorse Y. M. C. A. By giving its indorsement to the Young Men's Christian association movement among our people in Pittsburg the executive board of the Allegheny (Pa.) General Baptist association at a meeting recently held in the Triumph Baptist church, Sewickley, Pa., scored another point in favor of bettering conditions among the young men of Pittsburg.

Liberal Aid For Girl Who Surprised Chicago Musical Circles. The appearance of Miss Hazel Harrison, a young Afro-American girl of Laporte, Ind., in a musical recital at Chicago recently revealed the fact that she is possessed of phenomenal ability as a pianist. The daily papers of the city paid high tribute of praise to Miss Harrison, with the intimation that it would be a fine thing for some philanthropist to aid her financially in order that she might complete her musical education. It has been learned since that two wealthy women of Chicago have given $4,000 to Miss Harrison, who is now said to be planning to go to Europe, where she will complete her studies at the best conservatories on the continent. Thus we score again in the higher realms of learning. The whole race appreciates the donors for their generosity ZION NOTES After more than six weeks' absence the pastor returned on the first Sunday and found the affairs of the church in excellent condition. The attendance during the time had been splendid, the collections good and under the preaching of Rev. Beckham quite a number of members had been added to the roll. The remarkable success which attended the May Carnival, the loyalty and enthusiasm of the members, demonstrated beyond question that the church is thoroughly organized and in line for the development of a "GREATER ZION." Last Sunday the pastor sounded the first note in the campaign to be conducted this summer, which will terminate in Our Fall Rally. Our purpose is to wipe out the last dollar of the debt in a single effort. The very thought of once more being clear of debt puts new life into every member. The spirit and mettle which now obtain in the church make it possible to raise the slogan $3,000 the Second Sunday in October." With our present splendidly loyal membership, with our wise, far-sighted officials, with the spirit of progress animating the entire organization, if our valuable property holdings are developed to their largest possibilities, Zion will continue for generations, as it has for 40 years, the arbiter of church life for the Rocky mountain region. The generous response by our people manifested during the May carnival is simply another evidence that Zion is reaching up after larger things. Modern church work can only be conducted where there is a modern equipment. This idea has become deeply rooted in the minds of our people and will begin to take material form at the October Rally. To be contented with present conditions is always a sign of degeneration. Prayers, advancement, evolution is the science of a living organism. TEAMS. God's word came to Moses on the banks of the Red sea, "Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward." A crowded house of worshipers greeted the pastor last Sunday morning; among whom were many out-of-town visitors. The morning subject, "What Shall the Harvest Be?" taken from the parable of the Sower, seemed to have left a deep impression on the people. Sunday evening services during the hot weather will hold only one hour from 8 to 9. The pastor will preach 15-minute sermons. The choir will furnish the greater part of the program. Remember, we dismiss at 9. The Sunday School is maintaining a remarkable attendance during these hot days. Supt. Porter and teachers are putting new energy into the work.
