DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1911
A Word to Advertisers:
A merchant should sell honest goods and a newspaper selling advertising space should deal just as squarely. The custom of doubling and quadrupling actual circulation in order to secure advertisements is time-hallowed, but none the less a bad one. The Statesman wishes to take its place among the "square deal newspapers" and solicits business upon its merits. It circulates ONE THOUSAND COPIES IN DENVER and a little more than half as many more in other Colorado cities and adjoining states, sixteen hundred subscribers in all. Our advertising rates are made upon that basis.
The quality of news service regulates the number of subscriptions and they in turn determine the value of a paper to the advertiser. The Statesman is willing to leave to its readers and the whole people the verdict on the class of news service it has. We will be glad to have advertisers ascertain from the people themselves what influence and standing The Statesman has, and not merely content themselves with what we say of ourselves. Just here we wish to add that it is the fixed policy of this paper to try to give a dollar's worth of service for a dollar. We utterly despise the petty blackmailing methods whereby some papers attempt to coerce advertisers into patronizing them. Neither is this a "worthy charity." We believe that the Negro race must work out its destiny and we are willing to earn every cent we receive.
RATON ITEMS
The rally of the Mt. Pilgrim Baptist church ended Sunday, May 14. The reports and financial proceeds were very encouraging. They held a chicken dinner Thursday, the 11th, in the business portion of Raton, which was also successful.
Rev. Burgees departed to Trinidad Monday, the 16th, whence he will start en route to Phoenix, Ariz., stopping off at Las Vegas, Sunday, May 21st.
The Maypole concert given last week at Turner A. M. E. chapel was a delightful success, showing the thoughtfulness and ingenuity of the manager, Mrs. Ben Brooks Ratcliffe.
Mr. Alfred Gould and Miss Laura Irvin of Pueblo were united in marriage at the residence of Mrs. J. C. Spurlock. Monday, May 16th.
Mr. L. B. Hunn, who has resided in Raton for several weeks, has decided to make Raton his future home. Mrs. L. B. Hunn arrived Thursday, the 11th, from Kansas City. The young couple recently married were formerly residents of Hiawatha, Kans. Mrs. Ben Brooks has departed to spend a few months at Melocke'r ranch, 15 miles out from Raton. Mr. George Adams went to Dawson, where he has accepted a position. Mrs. G. W. Oliver met with a very painful accident yesterday in the form of a severe burn on her right arm. The people of Raton have been enjoying a steady rain for the past several days. As a consequence the farmers and ranchers are very jubilant.
DO GHOSTS HAUNT SWAMPS?
No, never. It's foolish to fear a fancied evil, when there are real and deadly perils to guard against in swamps and marshes, bayous and lowlands. These are the malaria germs that cause ague, chills and fever, weakness, aches in the bones and muscles and may induce deadly typhoid. But Electric Bitters destroys and casts out these vicious germs from the blood. "Three bottles drove all the malaria from my system," wrote Wm. Fretwell, of Lucaura, N.C., "and I've had fine health ever since." Use this safe, sure remedy only. 50c, at all druggists.
GRAND JUNCTION, COLO.
On May 9, Mrs. Pandora Brown, mother of Mrs. J. H. Newman of this city, died at her home in Paris, Mo. at the age of 73 years. She had been a resident of Paris for 40 years and was an old and honored member of the A. M. E. church.
The deceased had been feeble for a number of years, suffering from paralysis and though her death had been expected for some time the blow is none the less hard to bear by those left to mourn her. In losing her we might justl yay, "Our loss is heaven's gain." She leaves two daughters, Mrs. Newman and Mrs. Steve Smith of Chicago, two sons, Mr. John R. Carter and Mr. Preston Brown, both of Paris, besides three sisters and a host of warm friends as she was beloved by all who knew her. Her death is made doubly sad by the death of Mrs. Mariah Petit, a sister, at the age of 83 years. The two sisters were laid to rest, side by side, the latter dying only two days before the former.
In her double beheavement, Mrs. Newman has the sympathy of the community.
O mother love! love that no one ever forgets!
Wonderful bread that God divides and multiplies!
Table always spread beside paternal hearth!
Each one has his part of it and each one has it all!
LA JUNTA NOTES.

Zulu Prince Delivers Fine Oration.
The address of Madikane Q. Cele of the graduating class at Hampton Institute recently was an excellent literary production and shows the possibilities of his tribe for intellectual development. Mr. Cele is a Zulu prince from Natal, South Africa, who has worked his way through Hampton and become a wheelwright.
Manhood Rights a Common Privilege
The right to vote or speak on questions which concern the body politic, to support the right and condemn the wrong, should not be confined to any one class of persons in business or the professions. It should be and is by right a common privilege. Let colored Americans stand to their guns. Right will eventually win the day.
Young Afro-Americans of Real Worth
The race takes pride in the success
of the following young Afro-Americans who will graduate from the several departments of the University of Pittsburgh this summer. They are Hubbard Hollensworth, Riley Leftwick and Ray H. Wooten, collegiate and engineering department; William Writt, Jr., and S. Rosemond Davis, medical department; Leo P. Philips and Mr. Primus, pharmaceutical department, while Daniel W. Hall gets his certificate for a special course in the industrial arts from Carnegie Technical schools.
SAVED CHILD FROM DEATH.
"After our child had suffered from severe bronchial-trouble for a year," wrote G. T. Richardson of Richardson's Mills, Ala., "we feared it had consumption. It had a bad cough all the time. We tried many remedies without avail, and doctor's medicine seemed as useless. Finally we tried Dr. King's New Discovery, and are pleased to say that one bottle effected a complete cure and our child is again strong and healthy." For coughes, colds, hoarseness, la gripe, asthma, croup and sore lungs, it is the most infallible remedy that's made. Price 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all druggists.
DENVER PERSONAL MENTION
Social News and Personal Mention Continued Pages Three and Four
One hundred Odd Fellows and 67 Ruthites were in the assembly that filled the People's church on last Sunday, the occasion being the Thanksgiving sermon of the Odd Fellows. The turnout was made notable but the presence of the Grand Master of the District, Dr. P. E. Spralting, also the Grand Secretary, Geo. S. Contee. Besides these two a place of honor was assigned to F. T. Bruce, who bears the sobriquet of the father of Odd Fellowship in Colorado. The line of march was headed by the Patriarchs, Arapahoe Lodge and Rocky Mountain Lodge. The whole was an escort to the new Household No. 4130 and the old one, No. 376. Denver Lodge and the new Household were introduced to the older organizations by the Grand Master. He and Dr. Huff made addresses on Odd Fellship, produced statistics in support of its greatness and were heartily received. The other participants from the order were Chas. Burton, J. W. Russell, Lon Williams, Mrs. Ella Lindsay. The sermon by Rev. Thomas Hazell was a scholarly effort with "The Psychology of Odd Fellship" as his theme.
The collection for the day was $28. In point of collection and of attendance this was the biggest annual turnout of the Order. It used no band. The members who meet in the Arapahoe street hall marched to the Welton hall and from there the unit ed force proceeded to the church.
NOTICES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
Last Sunday morning a very large number of worshipers were in attendance at the 11 o'clock service. The pastor preached from Rom. 14:19, "Let us, therefore, follow after the things which make for peace and the things whereby one may edify another." The discourse seemed timely and was evidently enjoyed by those present.
The attendance at Sunday School is on the increase; there were several classes reporting a full enrollment present. The classes of Mrs. Logan and Mrs. Over were star classes for the day. Bro. Porter and the teachers are adopting system and methods which are bringing results.
The B. Y. P. U., under Bro. Walton, is also gaining ground. The attendance seems to be on the increase, the lessons are handled with intelligence and spirit, all of which indicates that our young people are getting in line for a better work when we are installed in more convenient quarters. The Sewing Circle met Friday before last at the home of Mrs. Mary Banion White and last Friday at Dr. Ford's home on Arapahoe street. This auxiliary, one of the most active in the church, is already laying plans to meet its portion of responsibility in the coming Fall Rally.
That faithful band of women who make up the Willing Workers truly merit the name they bear. They are not only willing but keep constantly at it. Their permanent meeting place is at the home of Sister Banlon White, 2420 Emerson street. Every Thursday evening they will be found diligently doing their part toward building up the temporal affairs of the Kingdom. More of our women could lend a helping hand here.
The pastor's series of sermons on "Home Life" will begin this Sunday evening and continue through this month and June. It is hoped that every lover of the home will avail himself of the opportunity to be present. Subject for tomorrow evening, "Courtship and Marriage."

have been using her wonderful scalp

I can hardly find words to express

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 treat.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA,

Dear Madam Perkins:
I write you these few lines to let
you know how nicely my hair is get-
ting on; it Js doing fine, and I am
very well pleased with your treat-
ment. It has stopped my hair from
falling out and breaking off, and my
hair is growing much thicker. 1 am
80 glad I know of your treatment. 1
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 llve long, for you are doing a
noble work for our women,
Respectfully yours,
Mrs. Rebecca Coleman.

Not only those who have had business dealings with the brewing company of which he was a principal officer, but many in walks of life far remote, have given expression to grief over the death of Peter Fredrichs of the Zang Brewing company. The cordial good will which generally exists among colored people for German Americans, was in his case a tribute of love to his personality and it is too bad that his ears are stopped in death and cannot be gladdened by the praise which is lavishly bestowed upon him. His was a generous nature, the bigger for his hard beginning, in nowise spoiled by success. It is too bad that it is death which occasions it, but under any circumstances the sympathy which reaches across race and class lines is a grand tribute to innate nobility of human nature and should rejoice everyone.
No Man Knows What the End Will Be.
What will be the termination of color prejudice in the United States God only knows. From the way some persons act in many sections of the country, if it were possible for them to do so, they would monopolize the sun, moon, stars, air, water, light, rain and all the other physical forces which are given for man's benefit to keep the colored people from enjoying the use of them. Isn't it mean?
CLASSIFICATION OF THE RACES OF THE WORLD
Growing Intelligence of Dark People Noted With Apprehension.
So much is being said concerning the "yellow peril" and of the increasing intelligence of all of the dark races that a brief summary of the population of the world as divided between the white and the dark or colored races is peculiarly interesting. The whites include the Hindus, Persians, Greeks, Latins, Celts and Anglo-Saxons, or all the people of Aryan stock, who number approximately 690,000,000, while the dark or colored races include 630,000,000, Mongolian, or yellow people: 150,000,000 Negro, or black; 35,000,000 Malay, or brown, and 15,000,000 Indian, or red, a total of 830,000,000 people of the dark races as compared with 690,000,000 whites.
The difference of 140,000,000 in favor of the dark races seems to be a cause of serious apprehension in certain parts of the world, and it is thought that the militant stride of the Japanese will be copied by the Chinese and prove a source of inspiration to the other dark races. From every quarter of the globe comes disquieting news. Even in this country, where the Negroes gave 240 or more years of unrequited toll, they are treated as aliens, and through the process of elimination on account of color they share the humiliation of the Japanese and Chinese.
But the dark skinned people throughout the entire world are awakening. The cloud of ignorance is rapidly passing away before a favorable breeze of intelligence. They are asking the whites for a square deal, and it is feared by the "alarmists" that within the course of a few years the request will grow more insistent and finally take the form of a demand. After that what?
ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK FOR TRUE REFORMERS.
Mayor Richardson and Other City Officials Indorse Present Management.
If certain indications showing the interest of the white citizens in Richmond, Va., and their contributions to the redemption fund for rehabilitating the Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers, are to be considered substantial evidence of the order regaining its former prestige thousands of people will rejoice at the outcome.
We, the undersigned, believe it is the duty of every citizen of Richmond to do everything in his or her power to help save the True Reformers because of the untold good that the organization has done for the colored people of this city, state and country.
We have confidence in the present management and believe that all contributions will be properly applied. Signed: S. B. Witt, judge of Hustings court; John H. Ingram, law and equity court; H. M. Smith, attorney at law: Ben T. August.

A campaign to raise $37,000 was started by the officers of the fraternity in February after the extra session. The officials expect to raise the money by May 1. A statement by the head of the order shows that $65,713.72 has been raised since the failure of the bank in October and that about $30,000 has been paid for death claims. This shows that thousands of members are standing by the order.
There is quite a sentiment among the white people that the fraternity will profit by its present embarrassment and will ultimately become stronger than ever before. One of the worthy grand officers said: "It may be said without successful contradiction that there is no other organization in the race which could equal that," referring to the amount of money raised. "having the trouble on it that the True Reformers have been carrying. This speaks well for the brotherhood."

It is true that she was rooming at 2203 Welton street, where she unfortunately was a witness to the shooting which took place there Sunday morning. It has been said that the shooting was done about her. Mrs. Lee was arrested and held only as a witness for the state, and as early as I could show to the chief of police, Mr. Armstrong, that Mrs. Lee was in no manner responsible for the shooting nor in any manner implicated in it, she was immediately released.
IT STARTLED THE WORLD
When the astounding claims were first made for Bucklen's Arnica Salve, but forty years of wonderful cures have proved them true, and everywhere it is now known as the best salve on earth for burns, boils, scalds, sores, cuts, bruises, sprains, swellings, eczema, chapped hands, fever sores and piles. Only 25c at all druggists.
Dr. I. L. Thomas, the field secretary of the Home Mission and Church Extension Society is expected in the city Sunday. He will preach at Scott's Sunday evening. All delegates to the Home Missionary convention are urged to attend the mass meeting Sunday afternoon at Trinity M. E. church.
Mr. J. D. Rice preached an excellent sermon before an appreciative audience last Sunday evening.
Mr. E. Lewis and Miss Emma Patterson led the League last Sunday evening. It was the twenty-second anniversary of the Epworth League. The League has more than a million members throughout the connection and has become self-supporting among the colored conferences. Dr. I. Garland Penn is the assistant general secretary of the League. He will be in this city some time in June.
The various committees of the Ladies' Aid Society reports that they will be ready for the three days' fair the last of this month. There will be many beautiful articles of value to be sold at the lowest cost. The best chicken dinner that has ever been served by this society will be served the three days that the fair will run. Mrs. Forney, the president, has been ill, but is up and about again. Mesdames Pash and McPherson served the Ladies' Aid last Thursday.
The Old Folks' concert, which will be given on one of the fair nights, will afford much amusement for the audience. They will make you crack your sides laughing. The young people will render a literary program during the second or the third night
Thr Sunday school showed that it doubled its attendance last Sunday afternoon. Mr. Fred Brown is highly pleased at the grand showing on the first Sunday of this trial of the change of hours. The little folks will begin to practice for their Children's Day program soon. The program will not be rendered until the 18th of June. The pastor and district superintendent will leave for St. Louis, Mo., on the 19th of June to attend the Missionary and Educational convention convention to be held in that city, beginning with the 21st and going through the 24th.
Little Goldie McPherson is on the sick list. Miss Leila莉, our organist, is contemplating a trip to California, where she goes to visit her sister.

SCOTT CHURCH
THE STATESMAN-4
Denver Personals
$1,500 FOR SHORTER.
$1,500 is the cry of every member of Shorter Chapel for tomorrow. This is the date set for the annual grand rally, and as usual the loyal staunch friends and members are resolved that the enviable reputation of the greatest money-raising church in the West shall not suffer. For four weeks the leutenants have been here and there among their members with such zeal and good effects that success is practically assured. The Rev. A. E. Edwards, the eloquent pastor of Central, will preach at 3 o'clock in the afternoon at which time the pastors and congregations of the city upon special invitation will be present to encourage and assist. Every member and well-wisher of Shorter is urged to do his part to make this effort a success.
To Lovers of Music.
The Hackley Choral Club, Queen City Music Club, the various choirs and all other musical organizations, and the many music lovers of the city are invited by the Shorter Ushers to be present at their presentation of two leading artists of the race, Mme Hawkins-Buckner and Mr. M. Edward Atkinson, at shorter Chapel Monday, May 29, at 8:15 p. m. As Denver always enjoys the best the Ushers have complied with this desire by securing only the best.
Andy M. McConnell, vice-president of The Mutual Laundry Company, is of long experience in laundry work—steam and hand work. He comes to Denver from Jersey City, N. J., seeking a new field for one of his relatives who is in poor health, and who also is a laundryman. Mr. McConnell is one of the principal stockholders of The Mutual Laundry Company and is giving considerable attention to the establishing of the laundry. Under his good sound business direction the company is making fine progress toward an early opening for business. The agents reported up to last Saturday 163 families who have pledged their work, which averages weekly 54 cents per family. Mr. McConnell considers these figures very encouraging. Mr. McConnell's idea of establishing a laundry is more for giving employment than for profit. He states that he is not acquainted in Denver and desires to introduce himself by his work and by helping others.
The Mutual Laundry Company will not only equip their plant for steam and fancy hand work, but will have a mending department which will furnish work for the old ladies and girls in the Charitable Home. The directors are jubilant over the fact that they were so fortunate as to meet and become associated with Mr. McConnell and to keep him in Denver, as he was contemplating establishing a business in Salt Lake City.
Some very miraculous cures have been effected in chronic and acute cases by the doctors of our city. One such case comes to mind of a lady, an old resident who was advised to come back home as death was certain in a short while. Yet a Denver colored physician has her in good health. There are good white doctors, of course, but the members of the race would do well to consult the men whose advertisements appear on page 3 of this paper before going to others.
Just one year has passed over the head of West Brothers' cafe and ice cream parlor, yet so busy has it been and such a large part has it played in the social life of the city, that it seems much longer. Such is the reward of success.
Mrs. T. E. McClain returns home this week after several weeks' absence in Chicago and St. Louis. Mr. and Mrs. Moore, her relatives, are expected in the city from Chicago. Messrs. Holly and Stills were numbered among the sick this week.
Since coming to the city Mrs. Boone has taken in charge her daughter, Mrs Hill, who has been very ill, and has her now at her home on Broadway.
Mrs. W. E. Mitchell expects to enter the hospital shortly for an operation.
Mrs. Laura Hill has returned from Chicago, where she went to attend the national meeting of the ladies who are auxiliary to the Presbyterian church. She went as the delegate of the guild of the local church.
Father Brown married on Thursday Miss Josephine Allen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Haskins, and Matthew McKetha. The bridgroom is from Louisiana and it is understood that they will make a bridal trip there shortly.
Ben Hatcher of Pueblo was in the city Sunday on business.
A reliable business lady would like to keep house for some one who wishes to go away for the summer, or will take charge of a rooming house. For further information, call at this office, or Phone Main 7487.
Help us and we will help you boost our building fund at Bloomfield park, Wednesday, June 14.

A BURGLER' AWFUL DEED
May not paralyze a home so completely as a mother's long illness. But Dr. King's New Life Pills are a splendid remedy for women. "They gave me wonderful benefit in constipation and female trouble," wrote Mrs. M. C. Dunlap of Deadill, Teenn. If ailing, try them, 25c, at all drummers.
Messrs. A. T. Kerr and P. W. Webster presented a musical program and a one-act farce at the People's church Thursday evening. The musical program was participated in by the choir, Cleo Hobson, Atwell Rose, Vivian Jones, P. W. Webster and A. T. Kerr. The latter besides singing did a black face monologue that set the house to laughing. Mr. Kerr has been a professional performer and shows the hall marks of rigorous preparation. The evening closed with the comedy sketch, "Dr. Killum's Office." Messrs. Webster as the doctor and Kerr as his makeshift assistant were funny, the lines and characterization both being good. Many times their dialogue was literally drowned in laughter.
One of the latest clubs to make its advent into the city is the Wednesday Afternoon Study club, which was organized by Mrs. James Bell on March 29, 1911, for the study of literature and art needle work.
The art department, under the competent instruction of Mrs. W. B. Townsend, is doing very original work along the lines of battenburg, French embroidery, drawn work, stenciling and pyrography.
The literary department is pursuing a systematic course of study in English and American authors; at present making specific study of George Elliot's well known psychological novel, "Silas Marner," for the purpose of plot development. This department is under the supervision of Mrs. Howard Jenkins.
The following program was rendered April 26, 1911:
Vocal solo, Mrs. Howard Jenkins.
Current topics, Mrs. Wm. Hickman.
Life and works of Henry W. Longfellow, Mrs. W. B. Townsend.
Select reading, Mrs. Frank Gains.
Piano solo, Mrs. Wm. Herndon.
Recitation, Mrs. Eugene Parks.
George Elliot's place in literature,
Mrs. James Bell.
Vocal solo, Mrs. George McCullough.
Mrs. George McCullough, president.
Mrs. Eugene Parks, secretary.
Mr. and Mrs. John Nelson of 2433 Welton street entertained at dinner Friday evening in honor of Mrs. John Lefridge, who left Monday for points in California. The dining room was beautifully decorated in ferns and cut flowers. Pink and green was the color scheme. Covers were laid for 18 and a five-course dinner was served. Various games were played. Mrs. Carey won first prize and Mr. Howard second. Those participating in Mrs. Nelson's hospitality were Mr. and Mrs. John Lefridge, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Carey, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Howard, Mr. and Mrs. Hackwood, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Harris, Mrs. Clara Marze, Mr. Montgomery, Mrs. McKenzie and Miss Emma Shafer. A delightful time was had and all left declaring Mrs. Nelson the best hostess ever.
Good plastering and cementing is not so costly that one cannot afford the best. Wm. Walton, whose advertisement appears in this paper, can furnish any number of first-class references. No use in the house being damp and unhealthy. Figure with him. That costs you nothing.
After 73 years of life Dennis Anderson was laid to rest on Sunday in Riverside cemetery. The funeral was held from Zion church with Rev. Over officiating. He had many relatives in the city and a host of friends paid their last respects. For several years he has made his home in Montclair.
A slight blaze disturbed the peace of the Byron Cafe Thursday. Small damage was done.
C. M. White of the American Woodmen leaves next week for a trip South.
The Albrecht millinery store, whose advertisement appears on page 5, invites an inspection of the unusual bargains it is offering in its clean-up sale. Persons who do not buy are nevertheless welcome, for it wishes you to know the large saving you can make when you are ready to buy.
Miss Martha Hubbard is visiting in Washington at present.
S. M. Smothers was in the city from the Western slope this week.
Rev. L. B. Banks performed the marriage ceremony Wednesday night which made man and wife Mrs. A. Spencer and Thomas Berry. The intimate friends of the contracting parties gathered at the home of the bridegroom's mother in Englewood and remained after the knot was tied to felicitate with them. Mr. Berry is one of the best known men in Denver, having an enviable reputation as a bass singer. The congratulations of The Statesman are extended them for a happy married life.

SPORTS AND THE STAGE
THE MALLORY BROS.
The well-known Mallory brothers have been doing a little turn on the stage near their home. The boys have retired but every once in a while they break out into the old-time business, and I would not be surprised to see them again in all their glory, illuminating the stage as in former days. The Mallory name was a great drawing card at all times. They were a pair of refined actors, whose work was eminently satisfactory and their stage partners, their wives, were quite as refined and as clever as the boys.
NOTICE TO EVERYBODY.
The new colored theater and halls for Denver will be named The Pekin. Don't forget to learn the name Pekin.

BLACK PATTI COMPANY.
The Madame Patti is still in the land of success and making good wherever they play. Press notices are fulsome in the praise of the good work of the aggregation and there is not a company on the road more worthy than that of Patti's company.
THE GREAT JOHN BERRY
The colored Alvora Mr. John Berry has been a combined success for the last five weeks at Segel's New Orpheum circuit, Philadelphia, after playing two years and a half at Washington. He is now under the management of Mr. Harry Bond.
JOHNSON AND BONES FIGHT A DRAW.
Young Jack Johnson of the East and Hock Bones, the clever negro fighter of Memphis, fought a fast and hard fight last Monday night to a draw. This is their second meeting and Johnson got the decision in the first fight. They will fight again in the near future to see who is who. It looks like Hock Bones.

Sam Langford.
A homely chunk of brawn and bone,
Who doesn't fight by telephone,
This gent who's left so much alone—
Sam Langford.
Alone in sorrow he must sup;
All the champions have passed him up,
This little dusky buttercup—
Sam Langford.
But when the fat old Luna beams,
The champion sees you in his dreams,
And kicks the covers off and screams,
Sam Langford.
