A RECORD BROKEN
A RECORD BROKEN
COLORADO'S FIRST COLORED JURY. On Tuesday last in Trinidad there was a shooting and as a result of it two women are dead and Daisy wells is being held as the slayer. The dead are Willa Haywood and Maggie Payne. George Holly is held as an accessory to the crime. The killing is said to have arisen from the charge made by the slayer that the two dead women tipped off to the police the fact that she and Holly were running a hop joint.
All these particulars of this tragedy are frequently duplicated in homicides. But one incident connected therewith is odd, so odd as to deserve notice. The coroner's jury assembled to make preliminary examination was all colored. It was composed of Leonard Chapman, foreman, W. T. Guinn F. Foley, Louis Staton, J. Robinson and C. Monroe. Personal acquaintance with some of the men on this jury convinces the editor of this paper that an attempt was made to select colored men for this jury whose character was good and standing high. Colorado has in this case had its first colored jury in a criminal case.

Auditor Tyler's Philanthropy. Prizes for the best kept gardens and lawns in the Tyler garden contest were awarded recently to the children who had excelled in the care of gardens this season. The award of the prizes was a feature of the first meeting of the Howard Park Citizens' association at the Church of Our Redeemer. The building was decorated with
many flowers and plants from the gardens of the youthful competitors in the association's prize garden contest. Fruits and garden products were also on exhibition, together with photographic views of the lawns of the prize winners, which

Dr. Warfield Makes Annual Report. Dr. W. A. Warfield, surgeon in chief and in charge of Freedmen's hospital.
made his annual report recently to the secretary of the interior. A building for the housing of the nurses, estimated at a cost of $12,500, and an additional wing to the hospital for the use of pay patients are among the urgent needs set
DR. W. A. WARFIELD.
forth by Dr. Warfield in his most interesting report.
In making the plea for a good home for the nurses Dr. Warfield says that as the health of the nurses is of first importance the initial step in the preservation of the same is suitable quarters. Speaking of the proposed building for pathological work, he avers that this work is essential, as the hospital itself is rendering the best service to those who seek medical and surgical aid.
Referring to the request for a new wing for pay patients, Dr. Warfield says that the demand for admission from those who are willing and able to pay is on the increase, due in a great measure, no doubt, to their inability to obtain at any cost satisfactory treatment elsewhere. The year just closed has been one of the most active in the history of the institution, exceeding the previous year in every department, and the results attained have been very gratify-

The Negro Townsite and Land Company has dissolved. It has paid its creditors. It now authorizes the statement that all persons holding stock certificates shall call upon Harry Jones, the secretary, at 1022 Nineteenth street, and from him secure their pro rata of the funds on hand. Notwithstanding the long operation of the company and its failure to do what was intended, it has been so well managed that it is able to pay 75 cents on the dollar to all stockholders. The credit for this is due to the directors, who magnanimously surrendered their own claims entirely in order that the other stockholders might receive a larger return.
Rice Lodge has chosen as its officers for next term J. H. M.

SOLID SOUTH IS WAVERING
New Orleans Opposed as Panama Exposition City.
TEXAS FAVORS SAN FRANCISCO
Decided Falling Off In Enthusiasts In Lone Star State as Evidenced by Articles Appearing In Papers of El Paso and San Antonio—Swing In Line For the California City as the Logical Site.
While New Orleans is industriously claiming the endorsement of the Mississippi valley region and the middle west it is allowing the "solid south" to waver in its supposed allegiance and slip away.
A few days ago word came from San Antonio, Tex., that there was a decided falling off of New Orleans exposition enthusiasts in that city owing to the greed of the Crescent City in attempting to secure the National Bankers' convention for next year, after San Antonio had put in a bid for their entertainment. Such action was not considered neighborly, especially after the Texas city had been asked to support New Orleans in its struggle for exposition honors.
Now El Paso, Tex., has apparently swung into line for San Francisco as against New Orleans as the logical site for the Panama exposition, judging by the following in the El Paso Herald of Oct. 12:
"El Paso's Interest as to the location of the Panama exposition of 1915 all lies with San Francisco as against New Orleans. As one commentator says: 'There never was an exposition so successful as that at Seattle, and there never was one so forlorn a failure as that at Jamestown, Va., notwithstanding the fact that half the population of the country is within a day's or a night's ride of Jamestown.' An exposition at San Francisco will promote the development of the west and that is what we are after."
Sometime ago New Orleans secured an endorsement in St. Louis and that success appears to have induced the belief among the Crescent City boosters that the entire middle west was only waiting for an invitation to climb on the New Orleans band wagon.
Next New Orleans announced that Omaha was for it, but the announcement was premature. In its hurry to report result the New Orleans bureau at Omaha sent broadcast over the country that New Orleans had been endorsed as the exposition city by the Commercial club, the largest and most influential organization of business men there.
Immediately the Commercial club held a meeting, repudiated the alleged endorsement of New Orleans and endorsed San Francisco by an overwhelming vote. The city council of Omaha, by unanimous vote, passed a resolution also endorsing San Francisco. Still asserting title to the sympathy and influence of the entire middle west section, the New Orleans boosted descended upon Chicago and re
THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO
quested an endorsement. The request was politely but firmly refused, but New Orleans, nothing daunted, continued to "claim" Chicago's support, confident in the belief that the endorsement would come later. But on Oct. 7 Chicago showed unmistakably where she stood in the exposition fight when the National Business League of America adopted a resolution, which after setting forth the advantages of San Francisco, concluded, "That San Francisco be, and hereby is, strongly recommended as the proper site for the proposed exposition."
New Orleans suffered another rebuff when she sought the endorsement of Washington, D. C. Washington refused, whereupon the New Orleans promoters dismissed the subject with the remark that Washington did not count anyway.
New Orleans "hopes" to raise about $8,000,000 for her proposed exposition, which will be entirely inadequate for so great an undertaking, but Senator Foster of Louisiana seeks to minimize the importance of having sufficient funds to insure the success of the enterprise. Admitting that San Francisco will have more than twice as much money for exposition purposes as New Orleans, he pleads that "it would be mean and unfair for congress to take that fact into consideration."
Race Prejudice Rampant In Baltimore. The effort of the city council in Baltimore to pass an ordinance which will forbid colored people from living in the same street or section of the city in which white people reside is born of prejudice of the rankest kind. The charge that property values depreciate in sections where colored people live may be logically dismissed by saying that if the property owners took the same care in keeping their real estate in the same good and sanitary conditions where colored people live as they do that occupied by the same class of whites the so called depreciation would not appear to be a factor.
Inventor and Expert Mechanic.
Besides being a first class mechanic, James Leach of Passaic, N. J., has recently won fame by inventing a device for improving the tone of the phenograph. Mr. Leach exhibited at the Edison company, and so pleased were the managers of the concern with the possibilities of the Leach improvement that they offered him a large sum for it. This is another instance in which the colored man has shown superior skill and mental ability.
What Our People Are Doing In Durham. N. C.
The following partial list of the business activities of our people in Durham, N. C., is very interesting in view of the many difficulties which confront the race in conducting business enterprises which require skill and experience. The list covers many lines of industry and is as follows:
Three insurance companies, the Mechanics' bank, two drug stores, one shoe store, two dressmaking establishments, one iron foundry, the Durham textile mills, twenty-five groceries and the Durham Elite Mattress factory; two first class tailoring establishments, five physicians, two dentists, one lawyer, one undertaker, the Durham Reformed Publishing company, several barber shops and one of the largest brick manufacturing establishments in the country, valued at $25,000

SPORTS AND THE THE STAGE By LEON PRYOR
PAGE.12
BURNLEY MAKES A HIT.
Good cheer, a homelike sociability and the best of service make the Railroad Men and Waiters' Club so different. It takes such a man as Frank Burnley, the genial manager, to make a hit among the connoisseurs of social clubs as railroad men, and this he has done.
GUY (KID) COKER.
Formerly a resident of Denver and a great participant in all out of door sports, Mr. Guy Coker, who is now residing in Los Angeles, was badly hurt Thanksgiving afternoon while playing football. He was playing quarter back for the all star Negro team of the coast. He writes that he is fast improving and will soon leave Los Angeles for New Mexico, where his parents are located.
MACK SMART RECEIVES CHALLENGE.
The pool and billiard artist of the R. M. A. C., Little Smart, has just received a challenge from the star of Salt Lake City. Smart will accept, when he hears of money.
THE R. M. A. CLUB BALL. DEC. 12.
It is the policy of this association to give one excursion and one ball each year. You are therefore notified that our first annual grand ball will be held in East Turner Hall Monday, Dec. 12, 1910. We will spare no pains nor money to make this the grandest social event ever given in this city. One of the special features being the grand moonlight dance in a snow storm by means of the calcium lights. Every member should manifest his loyalty to his club by his presence, and by seeing that his friends enjoy with him the festivities of this grand occasion.
VICTOR WALKER. President.
YOUNG BRUCE GOING EAST.
The fast little boxer of this city, one Kid Bruce, will probably leave for Philadelphia the first of the year, with his new white manager. Good luck, Bruce, you're the candy, all right.
THE HONOLULU COON CO.
This is not so bad and fair enough when it comes to some of our young men right here of Denver doing such a business in the South. Mr. Ottis McDaniels and brother Sam, and Jim Brown, all formerly of Denver, have one of the hottest companies in the South. They are playing in Shreveport, La., and making good. Well, you all know those boys were awful clever.
THE R. M. A. CLUB.
The club is forever improving. The next thing on deck will be the new lockers that are to be installed in the gym. This will be one of the swellest Negro clubs in the world, with everything to make health, pleasure and the much sought for amusement.
THE SIX SPILLERS
The best Negro musical company on the road today is that of the Six Musical Spillers, who closed a successful week at the Gaiety theatre of Indianapolis last week. They are booked solid for 30 weeks on the Morris time. Regards to Denver.

the country today. He not only plays the violin, but is very clever with three other instruments, such as cornet, clarinet, piccolo, flute, oboe, saxophone and the basson. The Doctor will stop in Denver permanently and he has chosen as his accompanist Miss Rhoda Anderson, who is one of Denver's best pianists. They will play in the Smart Set Vaudeville Co.
KING & BAILEY
Known throughout the country as the second Williams & Walker. These two clever boys and company, King & Bailey, this month are playing with the greatest success at the Winter Garden, Berlin, Germany.
One of the big hits of the East is that of Mr. Gideon's twelve Dandy Dixies Co. The act is a storm from start to finish, everything fast and snappy. The company is composed of the following well known artists: Edith Logan, Alma Dymond, Ruth Sprague, Eva Moore, Hattie May and Lizzie Baily; Billy Washington, Irwin Richardson, Ottis Benson, Joseph Moxley and Walter Robinson. These are a few of our dates ahead: Providence, R. L., Dec. 5th; Palace Theatre, Boston, Boduin Theatre, Boston Scenic Theatre, Boston. We are booked until Christmas night in Boston, go to Canada from there. Will write you from Montreal.
Yours truly, THE DANDY DIXIE CO.
HARRY BROOKS
The well known comedian in the East, will open this week at the Orpheum theatre, Scranton, Pa. He is ccidered to be a top notcher in the line of comedy and has a long booking on one of the largest vaudeville circuits in the East.
GEORGE (KID) COTTON
The clever young Negro heavyweight, Kid Cotton, former sparring partner of Jack Johnson, is very much the real thing around the smoky city, Pittsburg. He has been matched to fight Al Kubiak for six rounds before the Union Athletic Club, Pittsburg, some time the last of this month.
SIMMS & THOMPSON
Two jolly entertainers who have never been to Denver, but hope to play here in the spring, will be on the list to open the new Grand in Chicago. They will also have several new songs published in the near future. Good for the profession.
"LA SHE" IS THE KING.
Mr. La She, the clever Negro novelty glack wire artist, seems to be in a class by himself. He has played on the Nixon Nirdlinger time for the last month and still has eight more weeks. He will also play Mr. Nirdlinger's new Nixon theatre of Philadelphia next week. This will be the first Negro actor to ever play at this new Nixon theatre.

Judge Kills Grandfather Clause. Judge Morris of Maryland did what the astute jurists of the United States supreme court have not had backbone enough to do, says the Norfolk (Va.) Journal and Guide. He pronounced the infamous "grandfather clause" in violation of the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States. Somehow we believe Judge Morris' decision spells disaster to the suffrage amendments.
ST. MONICA'S MISSION.
Another Roman Catholic Church In the West For Afro-Americans. Within the past decade the Roman Catholic church in the United States has gained a large following among Afro-Americans. New impetus was given in this direction in the early spring of this year by Father John E. Burke, director general of the Catholic board for mission work among Afro-Americans throughout the country.
It is Father Burke's aim to raise $100.000 annually until a sufficient number of suitable edifices shall have been erected for worship and for the maintenance of schools for the education of those who are to study for the priesthood and subsequently become leaders in the work among Afro-Americans.
There has been a Roman Catholic church for our people in St. Louis, Mo., for the past twenty-five years. Another was opened in a cottage in Kansas City, Mo., the latter part of October. It is stated that a new edifice will soon be erected in its stead at a cost of $30,000.

Not glad you are a Negro, from
A race once crushed so low,
Considered beasts without a soul
Yea: sold and scattered so,
Today we know not where they be,
Our loved and lost ones all;
Keep back the tears that hurry seem
When this midnight recall.
The peerless Negro, staunch and
brave
To whom all honor's due,
Whose vital strength and prayer to
God
Cut opaque darkness through.
Some fell before the labor hard;
A few would look and go
Because the letters on the work
Were N. E. G. R. O.
But those who diligently strove
E'er opposition came—
(Eminating from some knavish folk.)
With strength, it met the same.
They laid for us the stepping stones
That lead us to the Gate.
They worked in unity 'gainst strife,
Both amateur and great.
Now we think a brighter day
Shall dawn before us soon,
A day so fair without a cloud,
Yea, morning, night and noon;
On which all nations will contest,
Out on the march they go,
The name of nation on each flag
One, N, E, C, B, O.
We'll shout and sing till angels wait; And lo! They stop and gaze To see what these things be about When high the banners raise. The highest one near reach the sky, The name thereon to know, With shaded brow, they read the one With N. E. G. R. O. We'll have the sweetest music there. We'll ne'er forget the sound; Then march away to some great place Step forth accept the crown, The giver of this noble thing Shall with a trumpet blow, A signal that the highest one Was N. E. G. R. O.
What more of joy shall we then wish?
To know our race so strong,
Thus won through battles, floods and flames—
O, may these joys prolong;
For we each day, are working on
As sure as time does go,
A flag to represent our race,
The N. E. G. R. O.
We kneel to God with grateful heart
And thank him as it is,
It took its root in richest soil
And grows, 'twill bloom in years
The bud now glitters with the dew,
'Tis only a matter of time,
For swiftly come the days and months
That bring this flower sublime.

DIXIE KID LOSES TO WILLIE LEWIS.

Optimistic View of the Political Situation as to Afro-Americans and the Present Administration — Mu-So-Lit and Monocan Clubs Begin Season. Auditor Tyler's Philanthropy.
In political circles in Washington at the present season everything seems very calm among the colored men. It may be that this is the calm that precedes the storm. The displacement of Mr. Vernon as register of the treasury and the ascendency into his official shoes of Mr. Napier were preceded by just such a calm. However, the present calm will no doubt be succeeded by news that will not be as startling to any one as the clap that came a few weeks ago.
Rumors are thick and fast that the appointment of two colored men will soon be announced. One is to be in the nature of a promotion of a New England man already in the federal service, while Dame Rumor says that the other will be a straight out appointment of a representative colored man from the Buckeye State to a position never before held by a member of our race. The appointment of Whitfield McKinley was one on that wise. The po-
sition that he now holds as collector of customs for the port of Georgetown was first given to a colored man by President Taft, and the position of assistant district attorney, which James A. Cobb holds, was first given to one of our race by
HON. J. A. COBB.
At the beginning of the present administration it was hinted around that no more patronage would be conferred on colored men who lived in states where they had been disfranchised. But President Taft, recognizing the fact that the great mass of Negroes live in the south, has generously accorded to the southern as well as the northern brother a good portion of the official "ple."

Republicans In Straits Betwixt Two. As we see it the Negro must cut loose from so much of the Republican party as is in the hands of his enemies, says the Dailas (Tex.) Express. This may mean a Democratic house this fall, but when the real Republicans see that they must throw the Jonahs overboard the political rights of the Negro will be restored and the Republican party will again come into power.

CAPABLE MAN ON THE JOB.
Henry Neal's Long Record as Congress Speakers' Attendant. One of the best known colored men in Washington to members of congress who have served for any length of time is Henry Neal, an attache of the speaker's room, who has occupied the position of general attendant to the speaker of the national house of representatives for a period of years covering and since the time of Speaker John G. Carlisle of Kentucky.
When Thomas B. Reed was first elected speaker he retained the services of Mr. Neal in his office. When Charles F. Crisp came into power as the presiding officer of the congress he also reappointed Mr. Neal. Upon the advent of Tom Reed (as his friends were wont to call him) to the speaker's chair for the second time, serving a double term, he found his faithful friend Neal still on duty and was pleased to retain him in his service.
Speaker Henderson and Uncle Joe Cannon each found in Mr. Neal a man of rare faculty and untiring devotion to his duties. Mr. Neal still occupies the position. The fact that a change in the speakership will come with the convening of the Sixty-second congress is said to be causing much speculation as to whether the next speaker will retain Mr. Neal, as did his predecessors for all these years.
Mr. Neal, however, so it is said, is not at all worried over the matter and is going straight ahead performing his work as usual. Mr. Neal is a native of Kentucky, but with the advent of each new speaker he humorously lays claims to the state from which the new speaker comes.

The “Blues” of Central Baptist

begin the construction of a new house
of worship, which when completed
promises to surpass anything in the
entire west. Dinner will be served
at the church each day from 11:30 a.

filled full of good things suitable for
Christmas gifts and many valuable
prizes will be distributed. Interesting

The 20th Century Whist Club held
its first winter meeting at the resi-
dence of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Edwards
last Saturday. Dainty refreshments
were served, after which came the
election of officers. Mrs. McClain,
president; Felix Woods, vice presi-
dent; Mrs. J. W. Bush, secretary;
Mrs. Tom Edwards, treasurer; J. W.

composed the executive committee,

Dr. Harper, Leonard Anderson, Mrs
A. Bastiste, H. J. Foster, chairman.

The Delta Epsilon Club was enter-
tained Friday, Nov. 25th, at the home

in many games and dancing until a
late hour and they wish to thank Mrs
Fairbanks for her hospitality
During the past month there have
been an unusually large number of in-
stances when burial of poor unfortun-
ates has been by charity. The
churches and individuals have raised
some money for this purpose. It is
very significant that all of these cases
have fallen into the hands of the two
colored undertakers. It need not be
added that they too have contributed
of their time and material, for char-
ity burials are not profitable to un-
dertakers. It is in the highest degree
pleasing to the race that our poor are
not a burden to white people, and con-
sequently a cause of criticism from
them against us. Yet, since the pro
fitable operation of our race undertak-
ing establishments is essential to
their ability to take care of our char-
ity cases, the duty of our people is
brought out clearly to help them be
profitable. [t is significant that none
of these charity cases have been cared
for by white undertakers.

Elks Hold Memorial
Services
The Elks of Rice Lodge held their
memorial exercises at Zion church
Sunday evening. The lodge has lost
no members during the past year and
the services tock on a more general
character, at the same time memorial-
izing all the dead since the lodge was
instituted. The program carried sev-
eral speeches, Drs. Westbrook and
Harper, W. A. Rice and Victor Walker
being the speakers. The progress of
the lodge in recent years has been
considerable. Being the founder,
much attention attached to the re-
marks of W. A. Rice. Some of the
sententious statements he made
were:
Rev. Over, Pastor, Exalted Ruler, Of-
ficers and Members of Rice Lodge
No. 39 of The Imp. B. P. O. E. of
W., Ladies and Gentlemen
I thank God for having an oppor-
tunity to address you upon the prin-
ciples of Elkdom, 1 firmly believe
that the principle of fraternity is find-
ing a pronounced and spontaneous ex-
pression in our day and age as never
before, and In the city of Denver the
gospel of peace and good will is work-
ing as never before since the brother-
hood of man was lovingly taught that
he must be his brother’s keeper and
retain the good will of the people.
I feel that a powerful movement in
this dircetion is now better felt and
well understood to attain saccess not
only for Etkdom, but for any frater-
nity, fe to guard well ite principles.
T feel that 1 can say without a word
of contradiction that the principles of
Elkdom, based upon charity, justice,
brotherly Jove and fidelity, is silently
working its wa ythrough the hearts of
all men and menifesting itself in good
deeds and humane actions.
It seems {if though some of us do
not fully understand the real source
of power; these are not in the showy
outward demonstration, In noisy ac-
elamation or particular appearance
Ladies and gentlemen, | believe
that the order of Elks is the home for
all intelligent, conscientious, honest
men, who have become wearied of the
quarrels of sects, creeds and isms of
various and innumerable kinds, and
who do not believe that in order to
live a high and nobler life it is neces-
sary to forego the innocent recrea-
tions or to smother those social in-
stincts which tend to bring ns into
closer communion and to cement more
firmly the ties of charity, justice,
brotherly love and fidelity.
I will say, my dear brothers, that
we must continue to keep those prin-
ciples as our watch word, Let ours
be the broad charity of love and help
to all God's creatures—the charity
that wil) lift up the lowly and cham-
pion the cause of the down-trodden
and oppressed: a charity that ts
bounded by no narrow lines of preju-
dice.
Let ours be the charity that think:
eth no ill, that believeth not the tale
that compasses a brother's hurt—a
charity possessed of a patient endur-
ance that Is God-like, a charity that,
recognizing the brotherhood of man
and the fatherhood of God, alms to
raise all mankind, charity add to Jus-
tice, brotherly love, whilst we cement
to higher and nobler models and lift-
fer aspirations—a charity that throws
a mantle of forgiveness and oblivion
over the foibles of others—that, real-
izing that man fs his brother's keep-
er, seeks to make every act of life a
benediction of joy to some voyager on
Ife'e poean which ehall undulate {te
ever widening wavelets of influence
upon the shores of eternity.
- Justice—the fundamental principles
of security and integrity in society
that without which all good in thought
or action, all progressive develcp-
ments, all the achievements of art
and science, of statesmanship and s0-
cial consolidations, would disappear.
By justice nations are preserved
and by injustice kingdoms or individ-
uals alike eventually fall beneath the
iron heel of retribution. Justice nev-
er fails.
Brotherly love. There are no divin
er words of apostle, evangelist or seer
than the simple utterance, let broth-
erly love continue, and yet, simple as
it is. sublimity breathes from every
word and irradiates each letter.
The school of philosophy, from Soc-
rates to Emerson, has never produced
a more sententious expression to in-
culeate the great fundamental doc.
trines underlying the laws of life and
being. With brotherly love this
world would become an Eden, and

weary march of life Without it,

ZION'S ANNUAL CONFERENCE.
Reports at Recent Session In Statesville, N. C., Gratifying.
BISHOP CLINTON'S ADDRESS.
Western North Carolina Conference, the Most Important Body of the A. M. E. Zion Connection, Given Some Sound Advice by Presiding Bishop. Interests of the Denomination.
From the reports of the ministers representing over 20,000 communicants at the twentieth annual session of the western North Carolina conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion denomination, recently held in the new commodious brick church of the connection in Statesville, N. C., the success of the denomination during the past year has been unprecedented.
Bishop George W. Clinton, D. D., presided over the conference. The personality of this noted prelate and race leader and the true development of every facility for proper advancement have made Bishop Clinton a potent factor in the progress of the race along many lines.
This is the leading conference of Zion's denomination. Within its borders are found Livingstone college, its leading institution, from which every year it gives its quota of thoroughly prepared young men and women. The publishing house of the denomination in Charlotte, N. C., was erected this year at a cost of $15,000. A pertinent feature of the conference was Bishop Clinton's annual address, in which he eloquently enraptured his audience by uncompromisingly asserting himself for the good of the race. Bishop Clinton spoke in part as follows:
"While we should be concerned about the nation's welfare and should contribute as much as possible to us general betterment as well as to the good of the local community, there are some matters of special interest to us as a people.
"The inalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the constitutional privilege of exercising the franchise, the opportunity to labor so that we may secure sufficient means to provide a decent living for ourselves and our families, the privilege of enjoying the benefit of a free school system that furnishes adequate primary training for the youth of our race and the impartial rights promised by just laws fairly administered are matters about which every Negro should deeply concern himself.
"Furthermore," he said, "our government has put a premium upon and in a measure inspired race prejudice and its concomitant, evil consequences by making color rather than character and fitness the condition upon which men shall hold offices of trust and responsibility in certain sections."
Bishop Clinton enunciated with especial vigor that "neither lily whiteism, the denial of office holding to colored men in the south nor the giving of a
PETER BROWN
few offices to prominent Democrats at the expense of old line Republicans can be depended upon to break the solid south and get support for a discredited administration and a divided party. "The colored man has at last learned that he, like other thoughtful citizens, must use his vote to the welfare of the community and state in which he lives rather than to blindly follow a party that used to his own hurt and against his best personal interest its power."
For harmony and ability to do business and good reports for every department of the church the conference was a splendid example of religious progress.
ANTI-LYNCHING SOCIETY DOING EFFECTIVE WORK.
Boston Organization Will Co-operate In Sumner Centenary Celebration.
The Anti-lynching society, of which Mrs. M. Cravath Simpson is president and Mrs. Addie H. Jewett, secretary of the publicity bureau, has received and accepted an invitation from the New England Suffrage league to join it in the forthcoming celebration in Boston of the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Charles Sumner.
At a recent meeting of the association held at the residence of Mrs. Parrish on Camden street, Boston, it was decided also to send a letter of thanks to the governor of New Jersey and other state officials for their prompt action in protecting the life of a colored man accused of crime from the ruthless vengeance of a bloodthirsty mob, thereby giving the accused a chance to be brought to trial according to law.
The Sumner celebration will be the principal event of interest in Boston and vicinity for Friday, Jan. 6. There will be three sessions, morning, afternoon and evening. The Anti-lynching association co-operating with the New England Suffrage league will do all in its power in helping to make the affair a great success, which will be in keeping with the services to the race and the country generally rendered by Charles Sumner.

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.

BIG COLLEGE ANNIVERSARY.
Celebration at Samuel Huston to Run Through Ten Days.
NOTED EDUCATORS TO ATTEND
Well Known School Which Started In Austin, Tex., Many Years Ago Will Tell What It Has Accomplished In Ten Years of Actual Work—Professor Lovinggood's Career.
The phenomenal progress which Samuel Huston college, at Austin, Tex.. has made during its comparatively brief existence will be the occasion for the gathering of many former students as well as stanch friends of the school at the tenth anniversary exercises, which begin on Tuesday, Nov. 22, and continue until Friday, Dec. 2.
The Samuel Huston college had its beginning some thirty years ago with the clamor of the colored people of that section for good school facilities for the children. of that great cotton section of the country, with over 1,000,000 colored people. In 1898 Samuel Huston, an Iowa farmer, gave $9,000, with which six acres of land were purchased and a building started.
Professor R. S. Lovinggood was elected by the Freedmen's Aid society of the Methodist Episcopal church as president of the school. With the aid of Mrs. Lovinggood he started to build up the school, which under his guidance has done so much for the intellectual and moral development of the race in Texas.
The work has steadily grown in importance and value to that vicinity. and the school now has property valued at nearly $100,000 and over 500 students. Professor Lovinggood has the implicit confidence of the white and colored people of Texas and has their most cordial support in his work. Among the many speakers at the anniversary exercises will be Governor
Campbell of Texas, Bishop Moore of the Methodist Episcopal church, Mayor A. P. Woolridge of Austin, Dr. W. P. Thirkield, president of Howard university; Dr. M. C. B. Mason of the Freedmen's Aid society of the Methodist Episcopal church and E. T. Burrowes of Maine. A special campaign will soon be waged to raise $10,000 with which to build a trade building for boys.
Professor Lovinggood was born in Stalholla, S. C., in 1864. After finishing the college course at Clark university. Atlanta, Ga., in 1890 he began the publication of the Atlanta Times. He sold his interest in the Times in 1893 to accept the principalship of one of the public schools of Birmingham. Ala.

ROSS-NICHOLS MARRIAGE
George G. Ross, one of Denver's two attorneys, and Miss Gertrude Nichols, surprised their friends Wednesday morning by linking their life fortunes. The ceremony was performed at the home of the bride's parents on East Twenty-eighth avenue, and Rev. Ward was the one who launched the matrimonial ship. Mr. and Mrs. Ross will be at home at 2344 Tremont place.
Rarely do two persons marry who carry with them the good wishes of more people. Miss Nichols has been the organist at Shorter church for years. She has been an employee of the United States Mint, a deputy in the Census Service, and has held several positions under private employers that have made her much in the public eye. In all places she has been charming and agreeable. She has been capable. Her new position as homemaker will doubtless find her as well qualified and willing as have the others. Her friends are legion and they all wish her well.
Mr. Ross, like his wife, is a Coloradoan of long years. Originally from Colorado Springs, a graduate of the High School there, he came to Denver and opened his law office after his graduation from Howard University. For four years he has maintained it, being associated with W. B. Townsend during the past year. He is an active worker in many movement for culture and social uplift. In musical circles he has been a leading spirit. All in all Mr. Ross is a young man of the race who is marked by his earnestness and zeal. These have earned him many friends. So it is fair to say that both of these young people set out with excellent prospects and the unbounded good will of an unusually large number of people. The Statesman joins in wishing them well.
One circumstance in connection with this wedding has caused considerable comment. Mrs. Ross has recently been in the employ of the Paris City Cleaning Works. Looking backward, it can be seen that every per-
