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.

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.

Rev. Prince arrived in the city Friday to be present at the quarterly conference at Turner A. M. E. chapel. The reports from the conference were very good and were even more encouraging than heretofore. A lecture was delivered by Rev. Prince that was highly appreciated by his listeners. The chapel was crowded Sunday evening by a congregation of all denominations, eager to listen to the soul
stirring sermon which was preached by Presiding Elder Price. Rev. Prince departed Tuesday. 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,

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.

DENVER PERSONAL MENTION
THE KIND OF RACE LOVE THAT COUNTS.
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.

VOLCANO IS IN ACTION

Handy, president of the company that is pushing it, spent a day in Colorado Springs early in the week and took orders for $1,000 worth of it and is now preparing the shipment. This company intends to place agents all over the country and will push the sale. The enlargement of its business has been wonderful and this is only the beginning.

the sick, in the persons of Sister ull, Brothers Cook, Watson and Porter, are improving. Brother J. C. Porter is now at his home on Clarkson street.
The church in conference last Friday night elected A. L. Davis a delegate to the Electoral College meeting in Pueblo May 10 to elect lay delegates to the general conference in Kansas City, 1912.
The Sunday school has certainly taken on new life since the introduction of the graded system and the cradle roll in the primary department.

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.

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.

I have taken Madam Perkins' treatment for a year and I have been greatly benefited by it. When I first started my hair was very short, and clean to the scalp in some places, and now it has grown many inches. I take great pleasure in recommending her to others, as her treatment is just what it is advertised to be.

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.

Enclosed find five dollars, for which please send me another six months' treatment for my hair. I am very pleased with your treatment. I don't think I can get along without your treatment. My hair is growing so nicely and has stopped falling out altogether and is looking fine. You can send this treatment as soon as you can.
Yours truly,
Mrs. Anna M. Hunt.

Dear Madam Perkins:
The goods were received and I am just as proud of the condition of my hair as I can be. I have been using your treatment exactly one year, and it has helped my hair just wonderfully. My hair has grown so much, and it looks so nice. I have had several friends to ask me about it. I guess in the near future you will have some more members added to your class from the state of South Carolina. I cannot praise you enough. Before I began using your treatment, why my hair would not grow. It stayed just one length and the ends of my hair were all split. Now I do not see a split end and my hair feels like silk.
Anyone who has any trouble with their hair falling out ought certainly to write you and begin your wonderful treatment, for, indeed, your treatment is the best treatment for the hair that I have ever known. You may use my letter any way you wish. If it will cause some others to try your treatment I shall be very glad.
Hoping you will continue to have success in your work, I am,
Yours gratefully,
A. Elizabeth Davis.

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.

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.

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.

Mesdames Castry and Rice led the
Epworth League meeting last Sunday
evening. The subject for Sunday eve-
ning 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 pro-
gress. Come.
| Mesdames McPherson and Pash en-
tertained the Ladies’ Aid Society with

SCCULAR BUSINESS SHOULD NOT, Mrs. L. H. Harper met with a seri-
IMPOSE UPON THE CHURCHES. |ous accident Wednesday by stepping
Individuals and organizations have
made such a demand upon _ the
churches for opportunity to advertise
their projects during the Sunday ser-
vices, that congregations are steadily
lifted out of the religious spirit with
which they are enveloped by the mu:
sic and the preaching of the Gospel,
and are set down in the midst of sor-
did commercialism by hearing a suc-
cession of announcements of mect-
ings for secular purposes, entertain-
ments that have no connection with
the church, and some that are in
downright opposition to church teach-
ings. 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 min:
iater 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 leader-
ship of our race is for good. It com-
mands the time and brain of our best
men and women. For it to be petty
and commercial {s 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 as to abuse it.

leaves this week for Chicago.
J. B. Moore is getting some better
and is now able to get about on

D. J. Hodges Jr. has returned to the

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 de-
ceased 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 desian, as did also the
manager of the Brown, the employes
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 fol
lowing:
It has pleased Almighty God to en:
ter our home and remove therefrom
Mr. Kountz, who for twenty years has
been an inmate, a friend in the full
est 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

Agents will be on the street in the

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 com-
petent help, all contribute to a belief
that a laundry company will pay. The
®romoters of this company are gener-
ally known. The large interests
which several of them have in Denver

POLITICAL CHAT AT THE CAPITAL
W. D. Johnson to Conduct Work on Forest Preservation.
VERNON UP FOR OFFICE AGAIN.
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. After a few facetious remarks Mr. Bryan, taking "Civilisation" as his sub-

ject, declared that his definition of civilization was the harmonious development of man, morally, physically and mentally. 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.
The first annual concert and reception of Naomi Household of Princess No. 4. The order of Moses, was held at Sumner hall, Brooklyn, on Thursday evening, April 27. The musical program was directed by C. A. Robinson. The concert took the form of a drama entitled "Love In a Cottage." The characters were:
Mr. Barrons.....Mr. C. A. Robinson
Mrs. Barrons.....Miss E. Taylor
Frank (their son).....Mr. L. Johnson
Elizabeth (Frank's cousin).....Miss C. M. Jackson
Bessle (maid of all work).....Miss C. M. Jackson
Farmer Strong.....Mr. D. Tompkins
Professor J. O. Allen's orchestra furnished the music for the drama and also for the dancing which followed.
Rufus L. Perry For City Magistrate. 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. The Armstrong association in Philadelphia has found that because of its work skilled mechanics among the colored men of the city have increased in number. The association obtains employment for such workmen. Along this same line there is special work being done by the association among the colored students in the trade and manual training schools of the city.

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.
The officers of the association are: President, W. T. B. Williams, agent of the Slater fund, Hampton, Va.; vice presidents, Inman E. Page, president of A. and M. college, Langston, Okla.; N. B. Young, president of A. and

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

Sardonian measures of galling pres-
sure seem to have threatened the ex-
alted 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
‘go there blossomed upon the Amer-
ican 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 in-
dividuals. 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 exalt-
ed 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. Bue the
ame 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 was 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
itis better to stand the vicissitudes
of life and fight it out together. They
understand one another, and to com-
bine their forces together, I am sure
that they would be Just what the pub-
lic has yearned for ever since the old
Williams & Walker company disband-
ed 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 perform-
ance.
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 26th. Mr. Victor Walk-
er, manager of the team,.is contem-
plating 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 enter-
tained.
A NEW WHITE HOPE.
The same old hope story. Ray
Burns, a South Bend, Ind., boiler mak-
er, now living in Milwaukee, a big
chap weighing 222 pounds and who is
under the wings of Joe Schlappa-
casse, 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 Mor-
ris. the Oklahoman. Come on, Kid
Hope.
NEGROES A HIT AT HAMMER-
STEIN’S, NEW YORK.
For the first time since Bert Wil-
liams 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
vaudeville performances, and Cooper
and Robison justly fell heir to the dis-
tinction. 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 unex-
pired dates throughout the old coun-
try. They also say that the negro per-
former abroad has the greatest of op-
portunities in the limelights of all
Europe.
THE TWO JOHNSONS. |
Hilly B, Johnson and wife, the big
time vaudeville stars, are now in Chi-
cago arranging for a long booking

MY WEEK END SHOW.
The band—Um-ta-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 bis
baloon. .
‘And Mr. Snow, how is that?
Of; all up in the air. But say, Mr.
Pryor, what do you think of my cute
little: wife?
Why, Mr. Snow, I think she fooks
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 1 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 al-
ways ever ready to go to the front.
No, no, Mr. Pryor.
Well,” why, Mr. Snow?
~ecause 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 “lt
Money Grew on ‘Trees, Bad Luck
Would Cut Off My Hands and Legs
for Me.”
KID BOOTS WOULD MEET KID
mROUIE
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 hew arrival is out with a big bet
(ints hel ont! Meat Rox (it) Brawn
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
beac 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 daintlest 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.
ANEW TENNIS CLI.
Members of the Y. M. C. B. ciub,
with the addition of several-new ap-
plicants, met Wednesday night and
organized in leu of the former olib
what will be known as the “Winona”
club, The work of completing the
court will begin May 1, so that play-
ing can begin early. There was an
enrollment of 26, which is evidence
that the coming season will surpass
all others, It ts 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. Lang-
ston, president; Robert Davis, secre-
tary; Kink Hayes, treasurer; Elbert
Robertson, custodian.
THE BABY GRAND, CHICAGO,
‘The little Grand theatre, Chicago, is
still holding its own with Deacon
Jacksons 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 Chi-
cago, but none like the Baby Grand.
JOHN N. COOPER, VENTRILO-
QUIST.
John Cooper, the clever negro yen-
triloquist 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.
