Washington Rounds Out Thirty Years' Work Amid Brilliant Scenes, Surrounded by Many Distinguished Visitors. By N. BARNET DODSON. Tuskegee, Ala.—Tuskegee institute's thirtieth annual commencement, which began May 21 and closed May 25, was the most successful in the history of the institution. The number of academic diplomas, industrial certificates from the various industrial divisions of the school and certificates from the Phelps Hall Bible Training school totaled 253. The large number of visitors present included distinguished men of both races from various sections of the country. On Sunday, May 21, at 1:30 p. m., students, teachers and visitors marched in a body to the institute chapel, where they listened to the commence- A. E. ACIE JONES, SALUTATORIAN. ment sermon, eloquently preached by the Right Rev. John C. Kilgo of the Methodist Episcopal Church South. Following the sermon Bishop Kilgo addressed a few earnest words to the members of the graduating class, who arose in a body to receive his blessing. On Monday night the graduating exercises of the Phelps Hall Bible Training school were held. This was the eighteenth anniversary. The alumni address was made by the Rev. William E. Burton of the class of 1900 and the annual address by the Rev. W. A. Blockwell of Montgomery, Aln. The Trinity church (Boston) oratorical contest was held in the chapel on Tuesday night. The prizes were $25 and $15. A large and enthusiastic audience was present. Commencement day, Thursday, May 25, was given over entirely to the exercises of the graduating class and was divided into two sessions, the morning session, which began at 10:30, and the afternoon session, which began at 2:30. Fourteen years ago Tuskegee departed entirely from the traditional commencement and in an old pavilion had illustrative material brought to the platform and there explained to the audiences which gathered to hear the youthful speakers. Instead of such essays as "Beyond the Alps Lies Italy," "After School What?" etc., the students were directed to write essays on subjects dealing with their every- THE CITY OF NEW YORK IS IN THE FIGHT AGAINST THE RACIAL RIGHTS OF THE HUMANITY.

SENIOR CLASS MARCHING FROM CHAPEL ON COMMENCEMENT DAY. Any school life. The salutatory, "The Care and Feeding of Cows For Milk Production." was delivered by Acle Jones of Thomasville, Ga. He told in a simple, straightforward way of the things he had learned in the dairy division of the school. By way of illustration, two cows were brought upon the stage—one a fine Jersey and the other a poor "scrub" cow. He demonstrated to the satisfaction of his hearers that, although the Jersey cow was more costly than the "scrub" in the beginning, was was on tar the better investment. The salutatory was in part as follows Dear trustees, you who have made it possible for us to reach the goal for which we have been striving for the past seven years, the class of 1911 extends to you a hearty welcome. Dear teachers, you who have kept watch over us and guided you through these many years, we welcome you. Dear friends, you who have stood by us in our struggles and hardships, we welcome you here to this institution. If in the course of these exercises and our career afterward we demonstrate to you that the hearty support you have given us has been used to the best advantage in making useful men and women we shall feel that we have begun in a small way to pay the debt that we owe you and this institution. One of the ways in which you have helped us and in which we shall try to pay this debt is through dairying. I will give you an idea of how cows are fed and cared for in the school's dairy husbandry division. In this division we have the following feeds from which to compound our ration: Cottonseed meal, cornmeal, wheat shorts and rape, corn silage, cottonseed hulls, hay, cabbage and wheat bran. If cottonseed hulls are chosen the hull and silage are three parts of hulls and three parts of silage and each cow is given about forty pounds of this mixture. The meal and shorts are mixed, one part of cornmeal to two parts of wheat shorts and six parts of cottonseed meal, and each cow is given about one pound of this mixture to every four pounds of milk she produces. Most of the other speakers used illustrations also. "Building a Closed Stairway," by Jesse O. Thomas, a graduate in carpentry, was illustrated with a model of the stairway, which had been placed upon the platform. Similarly illustrated were "Opportunities For the Negro Dressmaker In Her Community," by Flora Boaz of Kansas City, Kan.; "Some Simple Operations In Electricity," by Victor Daniels of the岛 of St. Thomas, Danish West Indies, and "Making Over Old Hata," by Estelle Williams of West Point, Miss. "Extension Work In Macon County," by Henderson Wells, Waugh, Ala., and "Carrying the School Into the Home," by Ophelia Hamilton, Columbus, Miss., while not illustrated, were well thought out and interesting. The valedictory, "Modern Methods In Education," was delivered by Julius Freeman of Wilson, N. C. He said in part: Until a comparatively recent date our educational system had no particular end, so we would have to develop a system would enable a person to be a successful artisan or 'professional man. With this idea in mind the studies had little or no connection with reality. Arithmetic was taught with no application to real substances. Children were told that sixteen ounces equaled one pound, and yet they had no conception of a pound or even how to operate scales. Other systems of weighs and measures were taught in this same abstract manner, and proved based upon this theoretical knowledge were solved to the utter satisfaction of the pupil and teacher. Likewise grammar had no connection with ordinary speech. The kindergarten carries the modern idea of teaching through play. No instruction is given from the book. The children are taught to weave and make simple designs through the spirit of play. in short, the kindergarten has a very perfect conditions. The training school serves as a bridge for the children of the immediate community A. B. JULIUS FREEMAN, VALEDICTORIAN. to pass from the kindergarten to Tuskegee proper. The play element is lessened and a more definite shape given to their lives and character by introducing carpentry, gardening, cooking and sewing into the upper classes. Dear teachers, we leave you with many regrets, for we realize and appreciate how closely your lives have been associated with ours. Our troubles have been your troubles, and when we would have done unwisely you guided with hands that were firm, we give us our instruction that would prepare us for useful life. We shall endeavor to show in our lives the result of your teaching. Dear principal, the class of 1911 bids you farewell. We shall strive to reflect in our lives the fundamentals of education that you have so wisely laid down for the benefit of humanity. We shall always remember the dignity of labor and to do with our might what our hands find to do. Our lives shall prove to the world the competency of industrial education in raising our standard to a higher life of service. Classmates, we must bid farewell to all these scenes made dear by pleasant and helpful associations. We must leave behind us the friends who have contributed so much to our lives, and, hardest of all, we must bid each other farewell. Tuskegee is sending us out. We go where duty requires us to be, and hardest of all, with overcoming difficulties, yet let us keep ever in mind our motto, "There is no victory without conflict." Let us do our best and trust in God. Schoolmates, teachers and principal, the class of 1911 as a class bids you farewell. Following the valedictory, the commencement address was delivered by Judge Robert H. Terrell of Washington. Then the diplomas were given out to the members of the graduating class by Principal Washington, and the meeting closed with the singing of the "Halleujah Chorus" by the choir.

Wibecan, who is one of Brooklyn's most aggressive and public spirited citizens. A DENVER ORGANIZATION THAT HAS GROWN NATION-WIDE. We grow accustomed to home conditions and overlook what would be marvelous in a visitor's eyes. One of the most marvelous things in Denver is the American Woodmen. This is strictly a fraternal life insurance company, taking the place among us occupied by the Modern Woodmen among whites. Up until a short time ago the management of the organization was vested in white men, but now colored men are at the helm. C. M. White, who came to the city from Austin, is the Supreme Commander. L. H. Lightner is assistant supreme clerk. Two ladies are employed in the office, Miss Stella Carter and Mrs. Dora Payne. All of this is gain for the face in money and in influence. No eastern or southern city can show a stronger insurance organization. The people of Denver have in their midst a very deserving colored enterprise that seems to have attracted but very little attention. We refer to the Supreme Camp of the American Woodmen that occupies two large modern office rooms in the Arapahoe building, fitted up with the latest appliances for the conducting of insurance business. And we believe it not a mistake to give a brief history of this organization that is doing so much for the uplift of our people. organizations and embodying those new features which had been found by experience to be essential to sound insurance. It was ably managed by these founders for more than nine years until the volume of business had grown to such proportion until the duties devolving upon the supreme clerk, J. C. Kennedy, became too arduous for his declining years. By this time they were firmly established in all of the Southern and most of the border states. From the incipiency of this organization it had been the intention of the founders, who were white men, to place the management in the hands of colored people so soon as its success was an assured fact. In accordance with this idea there was selected in August, 1910, from among the ablest colored men who had identified themselves with the order, a corps of officers to continue its management along the same broad lines upon which it was founded. They realized that in selecting a president or head of the corporation they must exercise the greatest care and judgment. It was essential that he should be a man with a thorough knowledge of the insurance business, of high honor and integrity and perfectly conversant with field and organization work and familiar with the local conditions of the colored people throughout the South. The board without a dissenting vote selected Prof. C. M. White of Austin, Texas, for the position. He had been identified with the order from its foundation and as clerk had built up its largest camp and as state deputy had built up its largest and strongest state organization. There are associated with him a corps of efficient officers who have succeeded in bringing the American Woodmen to the fore-front of all colored insurance societies. By selecting their membership with the greatest care and adopting the National Fraternal Congress rates the validation of their claims gives them an Ai rating in the insurance world. It may now be said to be a purely Negro enterprise for Negroes. Besides the numerous state organizations, the Supreme Camp alone has a payroll of over $50.00 every month and over $1.00 per month is paid to the colored printers of Denver for stationery, pamphlets, etc. Rev.

Jackson For Zion Bishoprio DENVER PERSONAL MENTION Social News and Personal Mention Continued on Pages Three, Four and Six ALMOST A THOUSAND Central Baptist church set a mark in its rally on last Sunday that exceeded anything yet done there. Over $900 was raised to apply on its new structure which is planned. For several months the rally work has been going on, contending clubs vieing with each other in who could best work and succeed. Rev. Over was the speaker in the special rally service Sunday afternoon and preached up to the effort that had been put forth. This rally is easily the greatest ever held in the church. Since the coming of Rev. Edwards a year ago, $1,600 has been raised to clear off standing debts and for building. Central is looking up and pushing up. Its members are jubilant. LAWYER TOWNSEND WINS A DIFFICULT CASE. Mildred McCray, Who Made a Target of a Man, Freed. Mildred McCray, who shot Robert Miller three times, once in the neck the ball coming out under the shoulder, another shot tearing off a finger, and another shot entering his watch, tearing it to pieces, passing out and cutting a gash six inches long in his side and embedding in his hip, was defended by Lawyer Townsend Thursday and set free. CONCORD LITERARY CIRCLE. Holds Debate on Question of Better Kind of Education. The subject for discussion at the recent meeting of the Concord Literary circle in Brooklyn was: "Resolved. That industrial education is more beneficial to the colored race than intellectual." For the affirmative Frederick Lopez gave a historical review of the progress made from ancient times up to the present along industrial times. He showed that the city of Rome, with its magnificent architecture, and Carthage and Athens, with their splendid buildings, were the product of industrialism. Mr Lopez said that the men who run the mills, factories and machinery are the men who are running the government. This entire universe, so to speak, is being run by three men—Carnegie, Rockefeller and J. Plerpont Morgan. They have more real power than all of the other men put together Mr. Thomas E. Scott, who assumed the negative side of the debate, said that, while industry had built up these ideal cities, the great intellectual leaders had given to them their prestige and influence; that, while Rome was mistress of the world, to Caesar belonged the credit for her worldwide fame; that, while Germany, with its industries, was regarded as one of the foremost countries, its real value was computed because of Bismarck, its leader. England has two kinds of education, one for the higher class and another for the lower, but its rulers are always selected from those receiving the higher education. Spain, because of its ignorance, was throttled and rated as a third class nation. Japan refused to accept industrial education as her standard and sent her children to the best colleges, universities and seminars and today challenges the world. College education brings with it a dignity and culture which the colored race needs. This age calls for men who can measure arms with the men of any other race—statesmen, lawyers, physicians, ministers, schoolteachers, etc. This can only be accomplished by getting the very best training available. FIVE CENTS A COPY ONAL MENTION Personal Mention Pages Three, and Six OLD MISSOURI "SHOWN" BY NEGROES. The Spanish War Veterans took a prominent part in the Memorial day parade, Corporal White camp of colored veterans making a decided hit. They were reviewed by the governor and staff at the capitol. It was freely said of them that they were the best division in the parade. When passing the governor, they formed in platoons with the trumpeters leading the way. An incident in the line of march shows the days of the war are over but the old Confederate spirit lives yet. It was due to the rule whereby all flags have to be dipped whenever passing in parade before United States flags which are unfurled. Corporal White camp was drawn up on Broadway. Color Sergeant Willis carrying the colors, when the local camp of Confederate veterans came marching by. Perforce its color sergeant had to dip his colors to those of the colored veterans. With an oath he burst forth: "I never thought that old Missouri would come to this." The sting of defeat was bitter enough, but to have the sovereignty of the United States maintained to the defeat of Confederacy and then to have the one-time slaves and their children be the guard of the nation's colors was too much. John Oglesby, commander of Corporal White camp, was aid de camp to General Bell and Dan Walker was chief trumpeter. At Crown Hill cemetery the camp dedicated a plot for the repose of the dead and raised their flag. The trumpet corps sounded "to the colors" and Lieutenant Colonel Paul Caldwell made a short speech.

School Which Had Humble Beginning Has Become One of the Most Important Educational Institutions In the South—Part Taken by Professor John R. Hawkins. By FRANKLIN E. JOHNSON Kittrell, N. C.-The twenty-fifth anniversary celebration of the founding of Kittrell college, which began on Friday, May 19, to run for six days, marks one of the most important educational events thus far held in the south this year. The celebration will be attended by prominent educators from all sections of the country, as well as leading churchmen of the A. M. E. connection. The speakers will include Professor John R. Hawkins, commissioner of education for the A. M. E. church; M. PRESIDENT D. J. JORDAN. Professor D. J. Jordan, president of Kittrell college; Rev. Dr. G. D. Carnes of Wilmington, N. C., who will deliver the baccalaureate sermon; Rev. J. W. Sanders of Smithfield, Va., who will address the literary societies, and Rev. A. L. Galnes of Baltimore, who will deliver the address to the graduating class. 17 4 3 Kittrell college is one of the most important educational institutions in the southland. It was founded by Rev. R. H. W. Leak of Raleigh, N. C., and several others, representing the North Carolina conference of the A. M. E. church. The upbuilding of the school has been largely due to the great and self sacrificing labors of Professor John R. Hawkins, who served as its president and is now treasurer of the college. The institution is supported by the North Carolina, the western North Carolina, the Virginia and the Baltimore conferences. Professor Hawkins has traveled all over the bounds of these conferences in the interest of the work. The college opened in a small way in February, 1886, and the following year it was chartered by the North Carolina legislature. The school now has a group of six buildings, one of which, Duke hall, will be formally dedicated on the last day of the celebration, May 24. This building will place the one destroyed by fire two years ago. The college authorities hope to complete the raising of a fund of $25,000 during the celebration for extending the work of the school. The following men have served as presidents of the college: Professor B. B. Golnes, 1886-9; Professor John R. Hawkins, 1889-96; Professor C. O. Kelly, 1890-8; Professor J. S. Williams, 1898-1900; Professor P. W. Dawkins, 1901-8; Rev. W. H. Giles and the present incumbent, B. J. Jordan. During the several years President Jordan has been in charge of the affairs of the institution he has assiduously labored to place it in the front rank of educational institutions in the south. He is a native of southwest Georgia and received his collegiate training at Allen university, Columbia, N. C. He has been teaching for the past twenty-five years, sixteen of which he spent in Atlanta, Ga., where he taught in the public schools of that city and Morris Brown college. He was professor of mathematics in the latter school and for eight years served as its vice president. Kittrell college offers excellent normal, classical and collegiate training. Courses in theology, domestic science and the trades are also given. The faculty includes the following teachers: P. C. McGill, C. W. A. David, Miss Victoria E. Dickson, Miss Lula Norris, Miss Minnie Thomas, Miss A. W. Moorehead, Miss M. Etta Stewart, Miss H. C. McBain, Miss Ellinor B. Hawkins and Mrs. Alice Warkins. The executive board is composed of the following persons: Bishop Levi J. Coppin, president; Professor D. J. Jordan. Professor John R. Hawkins. Revs. R. H. W. Leak, J. E. Jackson, S. S. Morris, W. H. Capheart, A. Stroud, R. R. Nichols, R. C. Holt, C. H. King, J. W. Walker, G. D. Jimmerson, S. M. Johnson, N. W. Brown, P. J. Jordan, J. W. Morris and C. H. Stephan. COLLEGE PRIZE CONTEST. Miss Weathersby of Utica Normal Awarded First Honors. Jackson, Miss.—Representing the Utica Normal and Industrial institute, of which William H. Holtzclaw is principal. Miss Emma Weathersby, a young girl in the normal department, won first prize in an oratorical contest in this city recently over seven other contestants, all of whom were male students of the most prominent schools in the state. Miss Weathersby was the only representative of an institution under college grade, all the other contestants being members of college classes. Her subject, "The Salt of the Earth," was treated with reference to the colored man's work in the civilization and upbuilding of the world and was well delivered. The contest was held under the auspices of the Paragon club, of which Attorney W. J. Latham, M. S. Stuart, cashier of the American Trust and Savings bank, and Benjamin P. Newman are the leading spirits. The other contestants were Jackson college, Jackson, Tatsy Huddleston, "Compulsory Education;" Campbell college, Jackson, Charles B. Hayden, "The Negro's Place In American History;" Southern Christian Institute, Edwards, Eric W. Hunt, "The Liquor Traffic Opposed to Civilization;" Rust university, Holly Springs, Wilbur Thirkield Williams, "Pitt, the Statesman;" Alcorn A. and M. college, Alcorn, Moses Williams Wilson, "The Industrial Future of Mississippi;" Natchez college, Natchez, John A. V. Owens, "The Afro-American's Imperative Needs," and Tougalou university, Tougalou, Nelson W. Willis, "The Call of Missions." Hon. W. J. Latham acted as master of ceremonies. Music was furnished by the Jackson college quartet, with brass bands from Alcorn and Utica institutes. ORPHAN ASYLUM IN NEED. Institution In Gilmer, Tex., Appeals to the Public For Help. The Dickson colored orphanage in Gilmer, Tex.. has done a great deal of good in caring for the needy children of that section of the state who have no one upon whom to depend for a living nor for right training and education. The institution is in need of funds to carry on the work and is appealing to the churches and the public generally for help, which must be given speedily if the institution is to continue its work. In his appeal Superintendent Dickson says: "This year I have twenty-seven children off in the different colleges receiving educational training right along the side of other children. Since the home has been organized we have enrolled 1.127 children, the majority of those placed in good Christian homes, and we are now taking care of 125. They must be fed, clothed and educated. This work has been kept up for the last twelve years by public contributions. "There is a ninety day campaign on for the Dickson Colored orphanage. We ask everybody to send in something." Socialism Should Have a Hearing. Under the caption "As to Socialism" the Boston Guardian says: "Socialism is certainly a subject up for consideration by colored Americans. With the Republican party abandoning the whole race to its political enemies, with the southern Democrats still showing the traditional prejudice, with the Republican progressives caring naught for aught but political allies and their economic hobbies, socialism should at least have a hearing." Not Playing Grand Stand Politics. The colored voters of Oregon are not playing grand stand politics as of yore, but they are playing the game like it should be played—voting for the best man regardless of party.

We are no little disgusted with the assurance with which certain office holders are attempting to play thé game of politics among certain col. ored people. We refer to white offic jals, and some of them Republicans. While we are entitled to an opinion concerning the acts of any public of- ficial, we recognize that it is impos- sible that his motives may be good even when we disagree with him. But when there is not even a shadow of ground for the belief that it is the morals of the community which such an official is attempting to benefit, and it is correspondingly clear that he is playing politics through the medium of his office, to our mind it is due the colored supporters of his party, wheth- er the official be Republican or Demo- crat, that they be consulted as to the effect of his moves. There is entirely too much of stool pigeon politics in Denver. It is a stench in the nostrils of decent peo- ple. Possibly those in authority can be arbitrary because they are now in power, but the masses of the people, Republican and Democrat, will say at the next election whether they like the methods or not.

DENVER, COLORADO City NEW FIRE LIEUTENANT. THE ALLIAN Following closely upon the announcement by the Civil Service Commission that Driver Thomas Martin or Engine No. 3, Denver fire department, had passed the examination with an average of 82.89 per cent., standing first in the list of eligibles, the fire and police board announced his promotion to lieutenancy and he assumed the new duties on Thursday. This action was forecasted some time ago, and while not coming as a surprise, it is such good fortune for Mr. Martin that it is gratifying to his friends, and especially because it comes to him deservedly after a most brilliant examination. He has been connected with the department for fourteen years and is thoroughly experienced in the work. This announcement of promotion comes just as the repairs and alterations on the engine house are nearing an end. So far the front wall has been rebuilt, the patent Anderson-Hale folding fire doors have been hung, and the floor stiffened with steel girders. Before completion it will be redecorated and will then be a modern fire house throughout. There are six men now in Engine No. 3: Captain Johnson, Lieutenant Martin, Al. Froman, John Oglesby, Jesse Martin and Wm. Sloane. Besides these, Chief Haley and driver are stationed there. The increase of the company from four, as it was years ago, and the addition of a chief has given prestige to Engine 3 and the boys are hard at work to keep up the high standing which has always been theirs. In the time between duty, they somehow have the happy faculty of getting a lot out of life and many is the pleasant hour spent under the tap of the gong. The double header song recital gives en at Shorter church by the two usher organizations Monday night, featuring Madam Neale Hawkins-Buckner and Edward Atkinson, was well attended and made a pronounced hit. Madam Buckner is known from coast to coast and if she had not a rich soprano voice of range and sweetness, yet would be an audience pleaser with her charming presence. But the combination of the two, voice and manner, makes her the wonderful artist who was applauded and applauded until she could not have satisfied the hearers had she sang all evening. Mr. Atkinson is a young man of such promise that it is a pleasure to contemplate the reputation he will build in the years to come. When both sang the Tower Scene from II Trovatore, the audience burst into a storm of applause that was a tribute to musical art seldom before witnessed in Denver. It frequently happens that local talent appearing conjointly with traveling stars get little praise because they are home folk. Not so on Monday. Mrs. Gertie Ross, whose playing of the pipe organ would do credit to any city, rendered the opening number. The Y. M. C. B. quartet, composed of the Ward and Rice Brothers, made a hit in lyric harmony and comic. Miss Cortelia Reynolds is a pleasing reader, her first selection in dialect being especially worthy, not only for her pleasing rendition of it, but also because it was the work of our late laterary genius, Franklin Bryant, a resident of our own city.

STREET,J NEAR 20th THE STATESMAN—7 TRUE REFORMERS RENEW LICENSE Time Honored Secret Order Given Chance to Rebuild Work. LOYALTY OF OFFICE FORCE. Grand Master A.W. Holmes Has Placed the Organization In Position to Regain Much of Its Former Prestige. Management of Old Regime to Be Made Known to the Order. By GEORGE FRANCIS KING. Richmond, Va.—The True Reformers have again been given a chance to fully rehabilitate by the insurance commissioner of this state renewing the license of the organization to do business. There is rejoicing in every state where there is a fountain. After a strenuous period, which revealed the loyalty of the members of the organizations throughout the brotherhood and the splendid spirit of the white people, especially of Virginia, to JOHN H. HARRIS help the fraternity to "come back," the order will undoubtedly cause a new phase of management of affairs which have made it the cynosure of the conservative element of the race and the business world. Accepting the stupendous task of adjusting the business of the organization to the extent that it would survive the deplorable mismanagement of the past and, finally, through the assistance of thousands of members and W. P. Burrell, who is a recognized authority on insurance matters among our own people. Grand Master A. W. Holmes has ultimately restored the organization to the position where there is a chance of placing it on the same business basis. A number of the members of the board of directors are for the revealing of the entire transactions of the officials of the old regime, and they will not let up until the people shall know everything. Concerning the disposition of said officials now in office, Mr Holmes, when interviewed by a representative of the press in part said: "I am determined to purge the order of all uncleanliness and will not cease until the people will be given the true status of affairs and their every interest protected. "New members can now be taken in, and a dispensation of $3 has been granted to former members. The office force has struggled valiantly and raised over $1,200 on account of the redemption fund." The following editorial from the News-Leader, Richmond's popular afternoon, paper, is interesting. It says: "We very sincerely congratulate the True Reformers on the renewal of their license to do business by the insurance department of the state. The zeal, energy and self sacrifice of the Negroes in rehabilitating their great institution is deserving of all praise and commendation. The definite destruction and ruin of this great Negro organization would have been a terrible blow to the race and the prestige of the race. For years this order has been pointed to as an evidence of the Negro's capacity to build, to construct and to achieve. It has rendered an immense service to the race. "There is much that it can do in the future. The spirit with which their people have come to their assistance and enabled the order to survive the calamitous misfortunes which had seemed to have overwhelmed it gives promise not only of the order's survival, but assurance that, chastened by adversity, it will go forward and perform still greater things for its people and enjoy still wider respect and consideration." Ambassador Bryce Conscientious. Ambassador James Bryce of Great Britain in a recent address to the members of the Y. M. C. A. in Washington is quoted as having said in the course of his speech: "Our progenitors did your progenitors a grave injustice in bringing them into this country in a state of servitude, and it is our duty to do all in our power to make up for this injustice." He was accompanied by Mrs. Bryce. As he entered and left the hall the audience arose while the band played "God Save the King." JUST TRY ONE!

One of the first afternoon dancing parties of the season will be given this afternoon at Old Colony hall and Floor Manager Pryor will assure every one the very best of order. Home folks and strangers are cordially invited to be in attendance. The hall is located at Twenty-eighth avenue and Downing. Dancing from 2 p. m. until 7:30 p. m. Admission 25c. LANGFORD-CAPONI FIGHT STOPPED BY LAW The fight that was to have taken place last Monday night between Sam Langford and Toni Caponli was called off, or in other words stopped by the police, as it was rumored that the undertakers would have their hands full taking care of Caponli, as there were a lot of sports left Chicago to see, as they said, Sam Langford kill a man in the ring. SMALL STAGE NOTES The Black Patti company have closed after a very successful season. The company will come West next season. Walter Billings, the clever musical artist, scored a great hit at Hillsdale, N. J., last week. His act is in a class by itself. Cole & Johnson Sambo Girls are still playing big houses with much success. They were the hit of the bill last week at the Music Hall, Lewiston, Mo. A. G. Brooks, ventriloquist, is still a big card at the Savoy theater, Madison, N. J. Miss Anita Wilkins, the clever song-stress, after a successful career of four weeks, playing the Crown Garden theater, Indianapolis, has gone to St. Louis, where she will be engaged for some time at the Virginia theater. Gus Simmons, singing, dancing and talking actor, played a return engagement at the Lincoln theatre, New York, last week and was heralded a scream. A trip to Coon Town, staged by Cordelia McClain and Laura Moss at the Globe theatre, Jacksonville, Fla., is meeting with big success. They are considered the best colored women producers in the business. The Man From Dixie company, one of the larger aggremations in the business, opened at Cornwall, N. Y., this week, headed by the famous Nash Jackson. Shirt Waist Dancing Party This Afternoon Old Colony Hall 28th and Downing Dancing from 2 P. M. until 7.30 P. M. Good Music. Refreshments in Abundance ADMISSION - 25 CENTS B. Thomas, C. Nicols, L. Pryor, Floor Manager Nuff sed. The Oddfellows' summer outing for mine. Two bits admission and a good time for meh. Bloomfield Park, Wednesday, June 14. Five Points won from AE Frat. in a loosely played game. The game was marked by many errors, which accounts for the large score. In the sixth inning Thomas of AE collided with Whitsell of Five Points and Whitsell was knocked unconscious. The features of the game were the pitching of McGinnis, who struck out ten of AE men, and the long drives of Mackey, Morrison, Carter and Zackery. The Five Points baseball team is out with a challenge to the Y. M. C. B. baseball team for some date in June. The Five Points believe they can defeat the preachers any time and place. One of Pueblo's crack fighters, Ple (Kid) Davis, is quite anxious to meet Roy Brown, the clever 140-pound boxer of this city. It is quite possible that these two husky young men will arrange for a bout in the near future, as Brown is willing to fight any of the boys in his class. THE WEAVERS. The team of Eula Mae and J. J. Weaver, styled the Invincible Due of Quality, are at the Central theatre, Dalan, Texas, for an indefinite stay. As a team they are now to the theat- rical world, but they promise to give some of the top notchers a hard run for their money, singing and dancing. MISS OLIVE BILLINGS. One of the cleverest little singing and dancing girls in vaudeville is that of Miss Olive Billings, who is scoring a big hit in the East singing popular songs, such as Gee, Isn't It Great to Meet a Friend, This Is all I Ask, and Love Dreams. Miss Billings will play the West this coming season. THE GREAT AERIAL ZAN TOLAS. In a class by themselves, the Zan Tolas are receiving flattering notices, now at Tacoma, Wash. They are doing their death-defying globe act. Their illuminated aerial bicycle stunt is said to be the best ever. AIDA OVERTON WALKER The world's greatest colored woman actress, Aida Overton Walker, will appear in vaudeville this summer, assisted by a number of the chorus girls of the Smart Set company. The act is being staged by Mrs. Walker and it is reported that she will receive a large salary. Mrs. Ora Dunlap will be her star substitute. NOTICE TO R. M. A. C. WHIST PLAYERS. Something new. On and after June 5th this year, there will be two big prize cups placed by the club as trophies for the winners of the most games of whist played in this club between the dates of June 5th and August 17th. The games won will be put on record from time of starting and the first and second teams averaging the highest amount of games won will be awarded the prizes. So it is up to the boys to get themselves together. As the prizes will be worth the efforts, both being of the high class silver-ware BASÉBALL BOYS Maybe the teams have a hard row to hoe, but at that we would all like to see you in action in the near future. Kelly's Kolored Forty, with single Billy Starks as the head comedian, are raising the roofs off the house tops all over the south. It is one of the strongest companies on the road. Rainy & Rainy, big musical four, will close their season at Newport News, Va. They have had a continual vaudeville run of forty weeks on southern time. Jones and Daniels are on their fourth week at the Maceo theater, Columbia, S. C., scoring a tremendous success. Ledman & Summers scored a big hit at the Colonial theater, Hoboken, N. J., last week. They will play New York for a run of eight weeks, starting June 5. Vaughner & Patterson are making a big hit at the Eden theater, Brooklyn, New York. ABBIE MITCHELL A GREAT SINGER. Well I guess she don't miss it much. In my estimation Miss Mitchell is the greatest woman singer we have in the race. She is in a class by herself when opera and high-class sentimental is rendered. And some day she will be able to demand the great salaries as do the white opera singers. Midget Price, the dainty little singer, well known in the east, made a big hit last week at the Lincoln theater, New York. She is arranging bookings for a western tour on the Pantages circuit. WORK WILL SOON START after you take Dr. King's New Life Pills, and you'll quickly enjoy their fine results. Constipation and indigestion vanish and fine appetite returns.' They regulate stomach, liver and bowels and impart new strength and energy to the whole system. Try them. Only 25c at all druggists. BOB COLE IS RECOVERING. Late reports from Chicago state that Bob Cole, late of Cole & Johnson Co. is fast regaining his mind and will probably be able to leave the sanitarium in the next few weeks. And let us hope that this is only too true, as Cole was one of the world's best. FOR RENT—Furnished front room at 828 Broadway.
