Every advertiser is invited to investigate its circulation and see that it also is honest THE SCHOOL ELECTION Editor calls attention to the need of voting Monday Twenty-Second Year Some few years ago when colored citizens were trying hard to secure a position for a colored girl as teacher in the public schools of Denver, they found one warm friend on the school board in the person of Dr. P. V. Carlin. Next week will occur the annual school election and it happens that Dr. Carlin is the member of the board who is up tor re-election. It is now for the colored citizens to show their appreciation. Not alone for the friendliness he has shown us, but also for the sake of our future it is essential that we aid in his re-election. Happily for us he is a man of such general worth that our support is deserved on all considerations. His long membership on the board has tried him out on all sides and the reputation he bears of being one of its best members, is earned. There has never attached to him any suspicion of partisan prejudice. He has said by his acts and his words that the public school is the crucible in which are thrown all the many elements of the American people, German, Irish, English, Slav, Italian and native born, therein refined and made into good citizens. He recognizes that racial differences exist and that the school more than any other agency, has the task of making them subordinate to the good of the whole people. ```markdown ``` It is not necessary to find fault with the opponents of Dr. Carlin in order to give him support. In fact his has been the class of statesmanship which stands most opposed to bickering. Justice is his plea and on his record he can make the race. The Statesman vouches for his friendly disposition toward us. Men who have taken part in the effort to get the school board to permit our girls to apply for positions without prejudice being a bar to them, will further verify this. Our only fear is that you may feel that the case is not urgent and that your failure to vote will go unnoticed. Such indifference will be fatal. The most powerful appeal that we can make for friends is our own willingness to go our limit for those who help us. Three thousand colored votes cast for Dr. Carlin at the school election will do more to open the way for the aspiring colored girl than any amount of mere talk and resolutions. Go yourself to the polls and take a friend with you. Vote for Dr. Carlin. His merit deserves it, his prinicl cieges argue for his future friendliness, our interests demand that we show our gratitude for services rendered. GLEANINGS FROM RATON, N. M. Mrs. F. W. Givens visited in Trinidad Sunday. Mr. James Young, who has been ill for several months, is again able to be out. Others sick are Mrs. Coffman, Taylor and Adams.

The Chas. P. Williams & Co., world famous jubilee singers, cancelled their date of April 24 in Raton, N. M., on learning that the theatre at which they were to show barred colored people. It will be remembered that Raton's main opera house burned down several weeks ago and this narrow example was set by a white man who had more prejudice than brains. Heretofore the Afro-Americans of this community, who are well thought of, were treated with the utmost consideration and due respect in all public places. The colored citizens of Raton immediately sent the company the following resolutions: Chas. P. Williams & Co., Trinidad, Colo. Be it resolved that we, the colored people of Raton, do hereby take this method of extending to you our most hearty congratulations and approval of the stand you have taken in behalf of the race by refusing to show at a theatre which barred colored people. Be it further resolved that a committee had formed to meet you at the train and to extend to you a gift of appreciation of your noble example. To our extreme regret, we learned that you and your famous troupe, of singers had passed there unexpectedly. However, we trust you will comprehend by these resolutions the favor you have done to a race and to the Afro-Americans of this community. Wishing you always success. Yours very truly, C. A. WOODARD, J. C. SPENLOCK, MYRON E. HUNN. KICKED BY A MAD HORSE.

Some business people lacking merit of their own, try to besmirch their competitors so as to make themselves seem more worthy by comparison. Of this class of competition are the insinuations which are hurled broadcast concerning the Cut Rate Market company, whose advertisement appears in this paper. The company feels superior to such methods and says it will continue to sell at living prices and that it is the hit dog which howls. It guarantees its goods absolutely the best. Call and do your own inspecting. Remember it is today that the "Fall of Troy" will be staged at the Crescent theater at Five Points.

That the Williams Jubilee Singers are people who are socially eligible to the best circles wherever they go, is generally known, and that they are the greatest singers of the race traveling is attested by the leading daily papers the country over, the musical critics of two continents and hundreds of thousands of pleased hearers, white and colored; but that they are race people, loyal and true, may not be so generally known. It is therefore interesting to Deuer people to know that they refused an otherwise profitable engagement in Raton, N. M., last week because the owner of the auditorium in which they were to appear refused to admit colored persons to their performance on any terms. Where there is so much prating of race love and so little real sacrifice to make it a working force, it is pleasant to record a moral triumph such as this. It will be the greater pleasure to hear and see them. Y. M. C. B. the ter-centenniary of the King James Bible was fittingly observed by the Y. M. C. B. on last Sunday at Shorter. The papers presented on the sources, English versions and the revised version of our Bible were very instructive and showed thorough preparation on the part of the readers. The Rev. J. W. Fant, a Bible scholar of some degree, presented some interesting facts in connection with the King James version. The attendance was good despite the rain. Dean A. C. Peck will be the speaker at this Sunday's meeting at 4 p. m. The dean is a forceful speaker and a rich treat is in store for all. The Y. M. C. B. is to be congratulated in securing his services for this occasion. THE ALLIANCE NOTES.

The most efficient superintendent, Mrs. Effie Waldon, has associated with her a most earnest corps of teachers. All are made welcome to attend each Sunday morning at 10 o'clock. Praises are still coming in for the excellent program rendered on Easter Sunday. The children are already planning to outdo themselves on Children's day. The pastor is desirous that all do their full duty in the $1,500 rally to be closed on May 21, in order that he may turn his attention toward plans for entertaining the annual conference in September. The many visitors of last Sunday are welcomed to worship with us again. NOTES OF ZION BAPTIST CHURCH Last Sunday morning witnessed a fine congregation and a genuinely spiritual service at Zion. The pastor preached from the 13th chapter of the 1st Corinthians. Subject, "The all-Powerful Influence of Love." That the sermon was helpful and enjoyed was evidenced by many expressions from those present. Nothing so stimulates the man in the pulpit as the realization that he is being used of the spirit in helping his people. The pastor announced last Sunday a series of sermons to be delivered during the months of May and June on home life and the home. A list of the subject follows: "Courtship and Marriage." "The Husband," "The Wife." "Home Life." "Child Rearing." "Society of Today." "Divorce." An apology for such a list of subjects, to the thoughtful observer of our social conditions, is not necessary. These subjects, together with outlines and dates, are soon to be published and the public is cordially invited to hear them. The series will begin about the middle of May and run through the month of June. The coming of the Williams Jubilee Singers next Wednesday evening is locked forward to with a great deal of anticipation. It will be the first time these artists have appeared before a colored audience in Denver, as they are greatly in demand by the white churches whose buildings generally accommodate a larger congregation. The choir is enthusiastically pushing the sale of tickets and we expect to tax the capacity of the church. Admission is 25 and 50 cents. Subject for Sunday morning, "A Wilderness Opportunity." There is going to be opened next week at 2228 Larimer street a hard laundry to be known as the Abyssinia laundry. Mrs. Susie Duncan will be head laundress. WOMEN! WAIT! STOP! LISTEN! READ!

Philadelphia, Pa.. Dec. 9th, 1910. To Whom It May Concern: After reading Madam Perkins' advertisement in "The Philadelphia Tribune," I called to see her and had the first treatment at her office. I have been using her wonderful scalp treatment for one year and find it has no equal. It is all that it is advertised to be, and it is so wonderful that I can hardly find words to express just how great it is. My hair was very short and very thin and full of dandruff. Now my hair has grown five inches longer than when I started. It is now twice as thick and as soft as silk. I highly recommend her treatment to others. The best thing to do is to try it and be convinced for yourself. There is nothing in the world to equal it for our race in the way of growing hair. Miss Annie Jackson, 1739 Bainbridge Street. Philadelphia. Pa. I have taken Madam Perkins' treatment for a year and I have been greatly benefited by it.

To Whom It May Concern: After reading in the Philadelphia Tribune of Madam T. D. Perkins, the Scalp Specialist of Denver, Colo. demonstrating in Philadelphia, I decided to write her relative to my hair. I received a prompt reply and sent for her treatment at once. Being so well pleased with the same, I went to Philadelphia to have her give me a personal treatment. I never used anything that was so wonderful for the hair as her treatment. My hair started to grow from the very first, the treatment not only causes the hair to grow, but removes dandruff and makes the hair soft and glossy. My husband thinks my hair is beautiful and says that it is the best I have ever used. I advise all good women that want good hair to write Madam Perkins, for she is doing just what she advertises to do for those that will carefully follow her instructions. ENTS WANTED.

Elizabeth Davis. NORTH CAROLINA. Elizabeth City, N. C., July 27, 1910. Mrs. T. D. Perkins. Dear Madam: I have tried your scalp treatment and I am perfectly delighted with it. My hair is much thicker and growing and in a very healthy condition. I will be sending for another next month, as I never want to be without it. I will send in good time. I can arrange my hair nicely now, and it will stay where I put it. Before using your treatment it would not do this. I am indeed proud of my hair. ARKANSAS. Conway, Ark., Nov. 30, 1909. Mrs. T. D. Perkins. Dear Madam: I am indeed sorry I can't hear from you. This is the second time I have written you, and the last I heard of you you were going West, but I am indeed proud to say that my hair is doing fine under your treatment. I would never regret any- TE UNLESS YOU thing for the way it is growing, and I intend to use your treatment as long as I can keep in touch with you. Hoping an early reply, I remain as ever yours. Lizzie Tardy. Washington, D. C., April 16, 1810. Dear Madam Perkins: I write you these few lines to let you know how nicely my hair is getting on; it is doing fine, and I am very well pleased with your treatment. It has stopped my hair from falling out and breaking off, and my hair is growing much thicker. I am so glad I know of your treatment. I feel every woman should know of your treatment, as the Bible reads that a woman's glory is her hair. There are so many that do not know how to obtain the glory. I trust you will live long, for you are doing a noble work for our women. A Newport, R. I., Dec. 1st, 1910. Madam Perkins: I was the recipient of my goods yesterday and I thank you so much. I must also tell you how delighted I am with my hair within the last month. I declare, I have never been so happy. I have used your food for nine months and can truthfully say it is wonderful, and I will never be without it. I would also like my name and address on your list. I am anxious to get home to show my head. I have lots of friends, and I am sure when I reach there my head will advertise your goods, as you know my hair was bad. The bald places have grown out nicely. I consider it a special blessing from God that I ventured into Philadelphia to see you. Estelle Fletcher, 30 Old Beach Road. DR.

April 19, showed that $201,753.26 was raised in "dollar money" in 1910. This is an increase of over $3,000, in the money raised last year through the M. REV. DR. JOHN HURST. same channel and $34,000 more than was reported in 1909, when Dr. Hurst made his first annual report. The session was called to order by Bishop Parks, who is filling the position of chairman of the board, held by the late Bishop Abraham Grant. Bishop Parks made a marked impression in the short address that he delivered, especially when he spoke with feeling of the services rendered the denomination by his late predecessor. In submitting his report Dr. Hurst made a number of recommendations for the successful carrying on of the work of the department. He also called attention to the financial status of the work of the church in West and South Africa. The report by episcopal districts presided over by the following bishops was: First, Wesley J. Gaines. $12,526.05 Second, Levi J. Coppin. $15,521.85 Third, W. B. Derrick. $6,535.60 Fourth, C. T. Shaffer. $15,035.48 Fifth, H. B. Parks, vice late Bishop Grant. $12,783.41 Sixth, Charles S.

We wish to thank the very appreciative audience who sat with intense interest from the beginning to the end of the program. The Rev. Thos. s. Brown of the Episcopal church gave us an inspiring address in keeping with the occasion. Those who are responsible for the success of the cantata are Mesdames Ross, Mosley, Wallace, Evans, Holmes, Forney, Castry, and the Misses Jessie Young, Jessie Pierson, Arma Anthony, Lela Rice, Rhoda Anderson and Messrs. Webster, Rice, Evans, Burrell, Giles and H. Watson, the director. Mesdames Castry and Rice led the Epworth League meeting last Sunday evening. The subject for Sunday evening is "Help and Hindrance from Within." These are special meetings arranged to help young people in their struggles against obstacles that hinder their moral and religious progress. Come. Mesdames McPherson and Pash entertained the Ladies' Aid Society with light refreshments last Thursday. The Ladies' Aid will meet every Thursday until the fair is over. The choir will sing at Central Baptist church next Thursday evening on the occasion of their gala week. Mr. J. D. Rice is expected home next week from Gammon Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Ga. Mr. Rice will finish his theological course next year. He will preach for Scotts in the near future. Special music will be rendered on that occasion by the choir that he had the management of before going to Gammon. Everybody is talking up the Ladies' Aid fair. Come to our rescue. We must raise one hundred dollars on this grand occasion. Three splendid programs will be rendered. Everything good to eat will be served and nice things to adorn the body will be sold. Your co-operation is earnestly solicited. Mrs. Forney, the president, is moving things, with the assistance of her energetic workers. NOTES OF THE PEOPLES' PRES BYTERIAN J. RCH.

Harper met with a serious accident Wednesday by stepping Individuals and organizations have made such a demand upon the churches for opportunity to advertise their projects during the Sunday services, that congregations are steadily lifted out of the religious spirit with which they are enveloped by the music and the preaching of the Gospel, and are set down in the midst of sordid commercialism by hearing a succession of announcements of meetings for secular purposes, entertainments that have no connection with the church, and some that are in downright opposition to church teachings. It is not our desire to condemn meetings or entertainments, but we see no reason why secular business should impose upon the churches. many of the notices which are read in the churches are published in the press free of charge. Others cost but little. The loss of efficiency for the minister and for the church which is perverted to such secular uses is not offset by the gain to the persons who impose upon them. To our way of thinking, it is just the outgrowth of habit. It is not necessary. It leads to bad consequences. The Ministerial Union should take the matter up and legislate. One minister might hesitate to undertake to stop the practice, but the Union can and ought to act. The church has a high place in civilization. Its leadership of our race is for good. It commands the time and brain of our best men and women. For it to be petty and commercial is to lose prestige. Its arms should be lifted up. We should all try to exalt it and the men who stand at the head. Even our selfish needs should not tempt us to abuse it. DENVER PERSONALS. Mr. Anderson of Montclair, father of Leonard, is very ill. Mr. and Mrs. Edwards of 2929 High street entertained a number of friends at cards on Wednesday night in honor of Mrs. Brookins of Chicago. Mrs. Brookins has been visiting her sister, Mrs. John Short, and has been the recipient of many social courtesies, of which this was a fit climax. Mrs. Geo. Contee and Dr. McClain received the highest honors and were suitably rewarded. Mr. Contee was the least fortunate and received the booby. After a stay of several months in California Mrs. Blanche Ross Lewis returned home yesterday. W. N. Coleman, who has been in the city demonstrating the Lozier car, leaves this week for Chicago. J. B. Moore is getting some better and is now able to get about on crutches. D. J. Hodges Jr. has returned to the city from Memphis. He was accompanied by his father and sister. Mr. Hodges Sr. has been for twenty years a foreman over brick masons and is a man of standing in his community. After a short illness, Stephen Kountz, a well known Denverite, passed away last Friday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Holmes and was buried from there on Sunday. The Episcopal form of service was used, Father Brown being in charge. Interment was at Riverside. The deceased had no immediate relatives in the city but had a number of intimate friends. He had been an example of thrift and industry, having worked at the Brown Palace hotel for many years. The presence of his employers at the services spoke of their high regard. The Bon Vivant social club of which he was a member gave a beautiful floral design, as did also the manager of the Brown, the employees of the Brown, Wm. Trotter and N. J. Hattenbach. He died possessed of real and personal property which he willed to Mrs. Holmes out of the high regard he had for her and in return for the kindness with which she had treated him. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Holmes and family give voice to their sorrow over the demise of Mr. Kountz in the following: It has pleased Almighty God to enter our home and remove therefrom Mr. Kountz, who for twenty years has been an inmate, a friend in the fullest sense, and one of the family. This loss cannot be recompensed, but it is a joy to know that he had accepted God and was ready to meet his maker. Henry Douglass was caught in the stampede at a local theater last Saturday evening and received a fractured rib and other minor injuries. IN MEMORIAM.

Jones of the Five Points barrer shop is entertaining his son who came last week from Omaha. Mrs. Robinson of 2336 Curtis street is indisposed. Mrs. Pauline Webb, who has been spending some time in Texas, has returned to the city again and is stopping with Mrs. Burnley of 2343 Ogden street. She expects to go to Chicago soon. Samuel Branum's hand continues to improve and there is little fear of an amputation being necessary. Agents will be on the street in the next few days selling stock and soliciting work for the Mutual Laundry Company. Without a doubt this is the one line of investment which offers the surest return. The general use of laundry, the cash conditions which prevail, the generous supply of competent help, all contribute to a belief that a laundry company will pay. The promoters of this company are generally known. The large interests which several of them have in Denver real estate and business insure their best endeavor to make it a big success. STOCK THAT IS BETTER THAN GOLD. To the Husband, Widow, Father, Mother, Sister, Brother, Young and Old, to the Lawyer, Banker, Farmer, Doctor, Minister, Merchant, School Teacher, We Are Now Offering Rev. J. L. Harding, who is president of the Southern Land Development Company, will appear at Bethlehem Baptist church May 5 with shoreopticon views of their land. He plans to sell stock and land. The company calls attention to its business in the following manner: Gold has a standing value; it is worth no more tomorrow than it is today. But stock in this company enhances in value as fast as the company's holdings increase. Ours is the greatest Negro company in the world. Greatest in capital, $2,500,000; greatest in holdings, 162,402 acres or 260 square miles. Greatest land upon which is now growing the greatest variety of the greatest product of the world. Greatest investment ever offered to the race. We give a BONUS OF 5 ACRES with every ten shares of stock, twenty shares, ten acres, etc. Said ten acres planted in henequen will, beginning in the fifth year, return to its owner a net profit of eighty dollars ($80.00) per acre, or $800.00 per ten acres for a period of ten to fifteen years. This land with stock is of the same tract and of the same quality that we are selling at $10.00 per acre. At the same time YOUR STOCK INCREASES IN VALUE and interest bearing quality as fast as the company's holdings and profits increase. to the race to be found anywhere, with an absolute certainty of handsome dividends on stock annually. The property today is netting the neat sum of $80,000 per annum. According to the terms of our contract, within a reasonably short time said profits will be coming into our treasury, Mr. _____, in the state of Campeche, where the raising of henequen is in its infancy, is selling land and setting out henequen at $200 per acre. Surely our land, in a section where thousands of acres of henequen stand today to verify our claim, is worth $250 per acre. And yet we will clear the land, furnish the plants and set them out for $60.00 per acre. WE PREDICT that in 1920 there will be nestling in the state of Campeche, Mexico, the happiest and wealthiest colony of negroes in the world. Beginning Nov. 1st, 1910, our new $40,000 mill turned out the first bale of hemp on the property. No later improved mill to be found anywhere in the republic.

Much Speculation as to Whether Ralph W. Tyler Will Succeed Himself as Auditor For Navy Department—Hon. W. J. Bryan Delivers Stirring Address Before Y. M. C. A. Washington.—Hon. W. D. Johnson, who was a special agent in the interior department, has been transferred to a special agency in the department of agriculture, which is now connected with the forestry bureau. He will have charge of a campaign of education among the colored people in teaching them all about the important subject of forest preservation. Mr. Johnson is fully qualified to perform his new duties with credits. It is rumored that former Register Vernon will receive some position soon in the nature of a special agency, the duties of which will require his traveling about the country considerably. The mention of the name of Mr. Vernon recalls the fact that but few reappointments have been made by President Taft. For instance, Vernon, who was register of the treasury, failed of reappointment and was succeeded by Napler; Dancy, who was recorder of deeds, failed of reappointment and was succeeded by Henry Lincoln Johnson; Lyons, who was minister to Liberia, failed of reappointment and was succeeded by Crum, and there are several other minor instances. Auditor For the Navy Ralph W. Tyler is the next man whose term will soon expire, and attention is now directed as to whether or not he will succeed himself. Although his term does not expire until June, it is known that HON. RALPH W. TYLER. several men of prominence in different parts of the country have been or are thinking of "shying their castors" for this $4,000 per annum position. Tyler is the second colored man to hold this position. John R. Lynch, a former congressman from Mississippi, now a paymaster in the army, was the first. He held the position under the administration of President Harrison. This auditorship is one of the six auditorships that come under the treasury department. Washington has been visited by scores of colored Democrats since the opening of the special session of congress—Ross of New York. Manning of Indiana, Russell of Pennsylvania and other colored Democrats of more or less note. Some of them have their eyes on committee messengerships and other snaps around the capitol. The minority in the house (now the Republicans) will no doubt do all within their power to save as many of the colored employees as possible. However, owing to the big cut in the employees made at the Democratic caucus it is safe to say that a number of the old employees will be cut off the payroll. Banquet to Register J. C. Napier. Tennesseeans in Washington are preparing to give a banquet to Hon. James C. Napier. the register of the treasury. Mr. Napier is from Nashville and is well known to all Tennesseeans. His home, where several colored universities are located, has always been recognized as one of the Nashville homes where collegians are always welcome. There is quite a contingent of Tennesseeans here holding government dierkships and prominent in the business and professional life of Washington, and they will give Mr. Napier a hearty welcome. Added to these Tennesseeans are many graduates of such Tennessee schools as Fisk, Mehary, Roger Williams, Walden and other institutions of that state who feel that they owe some loyalty to that state. Hon. William Jennings Bryan, the great Democratic leader, addressed the colored Y. M. C. A. here at one of its Sunday meetings recently in the new Howard theater. The theater was packed to its utmost capacity with an audience made up entirely of men to hear the distinguished Nebraskan. Mr. Bryan was driven to the theater in Dr. Cabaniss' big motor car and was accompanied by the owner of the car, Dr. Cabaniss, a lending colored physician; Mr. Ober of New York, editor of Association Men; Secretary D. Knowles Cooper of the local white Y. M. C. A. and Dr. C. A. Barbour of New York.

In an eloquent address of thirty minutes Mr. Bryan discussed this threefold development of man. Time and again as the "peerless leader" proceeded was he interrupted with applause which lasted until Colonel Bryan raised his hand in protest. Secretary Lewis Johnson of the local colored Y. M. C. A. presided and introduced Mr. Bryan. The other speaker was Rev. C. A. Barbour of New York, a noted Baptist divine. Dr. Barbour's address made a great impression, over fifty men responding to his appeal to them to lead better lives. The Elks' Glee club, under the direction of Lewis Ambler, rendered two selections, while Professor J. Henry Lewis and Professor J. T. Layton led the congregational singing. Great credit is due the Y. M. C. A. managers for the progress of the work. The Sunday meetings are quite a feature of Washington life. They have had in the past and have on their future program some of the best white and colored speakers in the country. KING-HOWE NUPTIALS. Brilliant Young Newspaper Man Takes Bride In Wilmington. By N. BARNETT DODSON. The social event of the Easter season in Wilmington, N. C., was the marriage of Miss Katharine Howe, sister of Mrs. Lewis Geyer, to Mr. George Francis King, in St. Mark's Protestant Episcopal church, at 5 o'clock, Wednesday, April 19. The bride is a well educated young woman and is a trained nurse by profession. She is well known throughout the state for her painstaking skill and adaptability for the work she has chosen as a profession. The name of George F. King is known the country over. In the coterie of younger newspaper men Mr. King is a gem—a bright constellation destined to shine on brighter and with more luster. He is now a contributor to some of the leading daily and weekly papers in the United States. He is correspondent at large for the Greensboro (N. C.) Daily News, with full Associated Press service. Mr. King has covered some of the most important educational, religious business and secret society conventions held in recent years for a long list of papers, giving the facts and figures of their actual achievements in a highly satisfactory way. Perhaps the last extended assignment which he had was the one covering the northern and eastern speaking tour of Judge Jeter C. Pritchard of North Carolina the latter part of February of this year. Mr. King's weekly contributions appear in some forty to sixty Afro-American papers from Oakland, Cal., through the northeast, south and middle Atlantic states. While Mr. King has been interested in newspaper work almost since his boyhood days, his upward career in the newspaper world took on new life in 1906 with the veteran T. Thomas Fortune, then editor of the New York Age. It had been Mr. Fortune's wish for a number of years previous to the date referred to above to increase the size of the Age, which he succeeded in doing. In order to get sufficient news and create more public interest in the paper Mr. Fortune employed a number of energetic young men as writers and sales agents. Among the number in New York were George F. King, W. P. Moore, N. B. Dodson, C. Leroy Stokes and Elizie Elmendorf. The Age from that time to the present has continued to enlarge and become more powerful as a race journal. Mr. King has proved his worth as a writer of news and special data. If he continues his good work his name will go down in history as one of the grandest Romans of them all. Mr. and Mrs. King will be at home, 208 East Leigh street, Richmond, Va., to receive their friends after Wednesday, April 26. Naomi Household of Princess No. 4.

Knowing his fitness for the office of city magistrate, a number of prominent citizens, lawyers, doctors and clergymen recently called upon Mayor William J. Gaynor at the city hall in New York to ask his honor to appoint Lawyer Rufus Lewis Perry to one of the six vacancies on the bench which occur May 1. The mayor told the delegation that he would consider Mr. Perry's name for the position. Armstrong Association's Good Work.

Educators to Hold Eighth Annual Convention There July 26-30. Unusual interest is being taken at this early date in the forthcoming eighth annual convention of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, to be held in St. Louis from Wednesday, July 26 to 30, inclusive. The convention will be the guest of the city teachers, who will act as a reception committee. Professor R. H. Cole, principal of the Simmons school, is chairman of the committee. Summer high school, in which the sessions of the convention will be held, is admirably adapted for such gatherings. The fact that Dr. Booker T. Washington is to be one of the principal speakers has created new interest in the work of the association, and the attendance will doubtless exceed that of former years.

REET, NEAR 20th THE STATESMAN—7 NEW BUILDINGS FOR KOWALIGA Thrifty Institution In Elmore County, Ala., Rapidly Recovering From Misfortune Caused by Fire a Few Years Ago — The Dixie Industrial Stock Company Organized. By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN. Kowaliga, Ala.—The cornerstones of four new buildings at the Kowaliga school, in Elmore county, Ala., were formally laid during the Easter holidays, and within a few weeks these structures, now approaching completion, will be dedicated to the uses of a colored community that is "leveling up," to use the phrase of its leader, through the medium of simple education and well directed industry. The buildings take the place of those destroyed by fire some two years ago and are remarkable, inasmuch as they are the product of colored workmen, who felled and sawed timber for them, made the shingles and joiner work and called upon the outside world for no materials save nails and hardware. Kowaliga differs widely from other colored schools in that it seeks not to train highly educated academic or industrial leaders for the race at large, but to develop the economic resources of a restricted territory by teaching the landowners and tenants how to take advantage of the opportunities open to them. Incidentally, their moral welfare is not neglected, and in the surrounding country the Kowaliga people have the reputation of being law abiding as well as industrious. Without the advantages afforded by the school it is reasonable to assume that few of these people would have outgrown the ignorance in which they were bred, and without the industries that have sprung up to re-enforce the educational features of their life it is doubtful whether they could have progressed to any appreciable extent along industrial lines. How Community Was Founded. The history of Kowalliga community dates back forty years, when John Benson bought 100 acres of land forming part of the plantation on which he had lived as a slave. He was a thrifty man and could turn his hand a most to anything. When he received his freedom he went to work for $10 a month and at the end of his first year he had saved $100. That was the way he accumulated money enough to purchase land. His wife was a government schoolteacher, one of the very first of her race, who had been sent into the county in the reconstruction period to impart to the colored people what little knowledge she had acquired. All of the Benson children received a sound education, and when the son, William E. Benson, returned to his home after graduating from Howard university in 1865 he determined to see what he could do to raise the standard of living among his neighbors. They had little capital, and their knowledge of modern agricultural methods was practically nil. Under the circumstances their children were destined to follow the same unprofitable path on the farm or suffer worse luck by drifting to the city, unless their environment underwent a change. So Benson junior, in company with a classmate and teacher, called the farmers to the cabin schoolhouse where he got his rudimentary education and told them he wanted to give their children a grammar school education and a certain amount of industrial and domestic training. He wanted, he said, to develop their latent abilities so that they might become intelligent and thrifty. Logs were felled and cut in the sawmill owned by Benson senior; shingles were made and a kiln of brick was burned for the foundation and chimneys. Benson's father provided ten acres of land, and in two years the first building of Kowaliga school was completed. In 1000, four years after the school was opened, Benson put into effect his labor scheme by organizing the Dixie Industrial company, in which several northerners took stock. Some of them did not expect to see their money again, but were willing to make the experiment of building up an industrial community. A tract of 5,000 acres of virgin timberland was purchased at a low figure, and the plan to provide work the whole year through was developed along definite lines. There are about 1,000 people in the Kowaliga district, which is nine miles long and six wide, and of these about thirty families, representing one-quarter of the population, own their farms, on which they plant cotton and vegetables and raise stock and poultry. They are better housed today than ever before, because the sawmills they help to operate provide them with building materials at moderate prices, while the value of the land has doubled in ten years, owing to the exploitation of the district. The company has increased its holdings to 10,000 acres, and while it is turning over some of the cleared land to the farmer it is also practicing conservation by reserving a certain proportion of its holdings for the development of a second LADIES' TAILORING AND FASHIONABLE DRESSMAKING PARLORS Ladies' Suits Remodeled Connected with the London Clothes Cleaning and Pressing Co. 76-78 Broadway Denver, Colo.

THE WILLIAMS & WALKER OF THE FUTURE. Sardonian measures of galling pressure seem to have threatened the exalted air upon which two foremost stars of their race and respective sexes have floated. Danger seems near and the day star of hope gives no signal and we yet may perish. Once upon a time not so many years ago there blossomed upon the American stage two young negroes, who were born to shine as stars and whose destiny was besought by the agency of time which changes the lives of individuals. And among the flowers of youth was George Walker, the negro stage Napoleon of his day, the one man who boldly stood up in his exalted position and made it possible for the negro thespian of his time, but in whom we did not really discover until after he had passed away. But the name of Williams and Walker is still fresh in the pages of the American stage history, so fresh that we can scarcely stand aside and see that name go to waste, that name which means so much prestige and so much assets to the negro profession. George Walker is a great man in his time and there will never be any one that can fill his place as he did. But we are dying out in a way and there must be some one to try and I think in the names of Williams and Walker all hope is not yet lost. There may be a possibility of convincing managers that the team name which drew more money into the box office than any other attraction upon the stage of either continent can be resurrected. The pathway would be clear for Bert Williams and Ada Overton Walker. They have had varied experiences since the original company disbanded. They have no doubt discovered that it is better to stand the vicissitudes of life and fight it out together. They understand one another, and to combine their forces together, I am sure that they would be just what the public has yearned for ever since the old Williams & Walker company disbanded some two or three years ago. Mrs. Walker is the best colored actress on the stage today and the same with Bert Williams. So why not quit the other troopers and head one of their own. The names are of old, Williams & Walker. JOHNSON & WELLS AT PANTAGES The clever team of Johnson & Wells, who closed at the vantages last night, certainly did themselves much credit. Their act is fast and snappy. The singing and dancing was great and they had no trouble in getting three and four calls every performance. THE R. M. A. C. TEAM WILL HAVE A BALL. The baseball boys of the Rocky Mountain Athletic club will give a big benefit ball at Dania hall Thursday evening, May 25th. Mr. Victor Walker, manager of the team, is contemplating bringing some of the good ball teams to Denver. And he also wants the team to play in one of the parks where everybody can go and be entertained. A NEW WHITE HOPE. The same old hope story. Ray Burns, a South Bend, Ind., bolder maker, now living in Milwaukee, a big chap weighing 222 pounds and who is under the wings of Joe Schlappasse, who played a prominent part in bringing out Bob Moha. Burns has only participated in two battles and they ended in his favor. His manager will try to get a match with Carl Morris. The Oklahomaan. Come on, Kid Hope. NEGROES A HIT AT HAMMER STEIN'S NEW YORK. For the first time since Bert Williams played Hammerstein's theatre, New York, has a colored act gained the decision for first position in the New York Journal's weekly chart of vandeville performances, and Cooper and Robison justly fell heir to the distinction. They are a neat and clever act and deserve a large amount of credit from everybody. THE FOUR BLACK DIAMONDS. The four black diamonds arrived in America last week, having returned from an extended trip abroad. They are mostly back to see old friends and their stay will be short, as they are returning in five weeks to play unexpired dates throughout the old country. They also say that the negro performer abroad has the greatest of opportunities in the limelights of all Europe. THE TWO JOHNSONS. Hilly B. Johnson and wife, the big time vaudeville stars, are now in Chicago arranging for a long booking over one of the big western circuits. They have just completed a new act and no doubt but what they, won't come over the Pantages, a little house but big money salaries. MY WEEK END SHOW. The band—Um-ta-ta-ta-ta-taaaa. Gentlemen, be seated. Well, Mr. Snow, how do you feel this evening? Oh, Mr. Pryor, I feel just like a big balloon. And Mr. Snow, how is that? How is now? Oh all up in the air. But say, Mr. Pryor, what do you think of my cute little wife? Why, Mr. Snow, I think she looks very much like Miss Anna Held with her hair down her back. And say, Pryor, did you ever see her with her hair done up? Why, I don't believe I have, Mr. Snow. Well, Pryor, she looks like it any how. But say, Pryor, can you tell me why a policeman is considered a brave man?? Why, Mr. Snow, because he is always ever ready to go to the front. No, no, Mr. Pryor. Well, why, Mr. Snow? Because he is the only man in town who can go to sleep and never get touched. We will now have a beautiful little ballad by Mr. Eatmore, entitled "In Money Grew on Trees, Bad Luck Would Cut Off My Hands and Legs for Me." KID BOOTS WOULD MEET KID BROWN. There seems to be a large amount of hard feelings against one another nowadays among the colored boxers. A new fighter has sprung up by name of Kid Boots, well known in Denver. The new arrival is out with a big bet that he can beat Roy (Kid) Brown, the clever 140-pound boxer of this city, in a ten round bout, and also says that he will get good backing, as much as five hundred, that he can beat Brown in a contest of ten rounds at any time. WARD & THOMAS. Miss Marguerite Ward and Kid H. Thomas, both well known to the stage, are in California playing all of the best houses in the state and will play Denver in June. Miss Ward is one of the daintiest actresses on the stage today, and also has many friends in this city who would be pleased to see her once more behind the footlights. A NEW TENNIS CLUB. Members of the Y. M. C. B. club, with the addition of several new applicants, met Wednesday night and organized in lieu of the former club what will be known as the "Winona" club. The work of completing the court will begin May 1, so that playing can begin early. There was an enrollment of 26, which is evidence that the coming season will surpass all others. It is the club's intention to make all lady players welcome and take special interest in beginners. The names of those members who are not paid up in full by May 15 will be dropped from the roll. Officers were elected as follows: Clarence E. Langston, president; Robert Davis, secretary; Kink Hayes, treasurer; Elbert Robertson, custodian. THE BABY GRAND CHICAGO The little Grand theatre, Chicago, is still holding its own with Deacon Jackson's Birthday at the Grand and Simms & Thompson and a good big supporting company of pretty girls. The public is much pleased and say they like all of the theatres in Chicago, but none like the Baby Grand. JOHN N. COOPER, VENTRILO QUIST, John Cooper, the clever negro ventriloquist and mimicer, scored a great hit last week at the Crescent theatre, ew York city. Cooper will book on the Lowe circuit the first of June. FOR SALE—A nice full dress suit, good as new. Size 36. See G. W. Davis, 1348 Fox St. NOTICE.
