Denver Star

The social life of Denver receives a superior portrayal in the columns of The Statesman. That is what gives it a superior circulation. Bluff and bragg are not good service and deceive but few. FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN A TOWN ENTIRELY NEGRO Twenty-Second Year A TOWN ENTIRE A Denver Woman Oklahoma an Observations. Farmer, lumber merchant, builder and contractor, alderman, founder of the electric light and power company, organizer of the commercial club, president of the Boley Progress and Printing Co., owner of valuable lands, reality and personal properties, father of three interesting children, ages respectively 8, 11 and 14, and devoted husband to one of Boley's most tallented and charming women. This is an imperfect outline of the busy life . the Hon. J. H. McMiley of Boley, Okla., the one exclusive Negro town of Oklahoma. Captains of industry, giants of commerce, men who have created and built up by their strength of will and domineering perseverance gigantic enterprises, usually are described as having high foreheads, square jaws and eyes of cold steel. I thought of all these things which we read of in connection with the white race as I sat on this man's veranda and listened while he talked of electric light plants, water systems, bridges, street paving, sanitary conditions, parks, in fact, all of the many problems that must be solved by every city, and, as I listened this thought came to me, those men who have made America great and whose names are household words have done and are not doing any more proportionally in their sphere than are these clear-sighted, heavy-jawed Afro-American leaders in laying the foundation of a great city for colored people. Associated with Mr. McRiley in this constructive work are a few of whom I wish to speak. T. M. Haynes is credited with being the founder of Boley and is truly one of the most remarkable men in America. He has always had the setup and do-things in him. He is worth thousands and has placed members of his race in a position to dwell in peace and accumulate plenty of this world's goods. Mr. Haynes is a business mon whose word is as good as his bond and his judgment is sought and accepted by men of all races. D. J. Turner is the genial cashier of the Farmers' and Merchants' bank and is the owner of the largest and finest drug store in Oklahoma. This drug store is unique in that it has for its manager Miss C. M. Taylor, a very capable and charming woman. Her associate is another lady, Miss N. Georgia Jenkins. J. N. Burnett owns a department store carrying a stock of goods valued at $15,000.00. J. R. Reynolds furnishes the brains that operate the Boley Light and Power Company. It is due to his efforts that Boley boasts of a splendid lighting service. Mr. Reynolds is the principal of the industrial and mechanical department of Wiley university at Marshall, Texas, and the young men who are operating the plant have received their training under his instructions. W. Jones is the bright young postmaster who is looking after Uncle Sam's interest in Boley. H. C. McCantley is his assistant. Professor Jordan Brewer teaches in the normal of the Boley high school building and is helping with a number of efficient teachers among them two of our Denver girls, Miss Mable Andrews and Miss Lola Jacobs to keep the intellectual standard of Boley on high ground. T. L. Woods is the proprietor and owner of a dry goods house, stock valued at $20,000.00. The Boley Progress is the official organ of Boley's inhabitants and is a neat little weekly edited by H. C. Gray. The very unusual sight of a colored operator interested me. He wanted to send for me a message to Denver telling them that I was well and happy. His name is D. E. Pitgerald. I could write all day and then could not tell about all the interesting people I met and visited in Boley. The city has 4,000 inhabitants, all colored, four churches, one large brick school house built at a cost of $15,000.00, several business houses of all kinds and a few pretentious dwelling houses. Most of the homes are neat frame structures with nicely kept gardens. Boley is surrounded on the east, west, north and south, for a distance of four or five miles by farms owned by colored people who spend their crop money there. Many of these farmers own city homes in Boley. The farms and the city. Like all the rest of Oklahoma, is suffering from the excessive heat and lack of water. One other observation and I shall finish this letter. I failed to see and was told that there are no club rooms, pool halls and saloons in Boley. Every chance is given the boy to become a respectable man, thus in its beginning some of the features that lower the morals of some of the other Oklahoma cities are eliminated. If such conditions prevail and can continue Boley's progress is assured. Very respectfully, MRS. IDA C. DEPRIEST. CHEYENNE NEWS. Mesdames J. A. Baker and Dweese hav. returned from the State Federation which met at Colorado Springs. They reported a very enjoyable time. Mrs. Lva Gilmore has not yet returned but is visiting in Denver. Mrs. Helen Thompson is visiting in Colorado Springs. Mrs. H. Davis has returned home after an extended visit in Iowa. She was accompanied home by her sister, Mrs. Richardson and little son, Iver. Messrs. Nolle and Elmer Smith are visiting in Denver. Mrs. Pearl Edwards is seriously ill at her home. Mr. and Mrs. Landers and two children arrived last week. They will make Chevonne their future home. Little Alice Gaskin had her arm and hand badly bruised by a window falling on it. On June 27 the Young Ladies' Literary and Art club was delightfully entertained by Miss Lillian Jefferson, Dainty tea tables were arranged in the spacious pariors and a dainty luncheon was served. In a alphabetical contest Miss Ruth Robinson captured the prize and Miss Willie Burros was consoled with a booby prize. Those enjoying Miss Jefferson's charming hospitality were: Misses Eunice Ashford, Minnie Cave, Virgil Gaskin, Willie Burros, Katheryne Thistle, Ruth Robinson, and Bertha Larkin. On June first Miss Ruth Robinson entertained the Art club. In a "Tour of Nations" contest, Miss Lillian Jefferson won the first prize and Miss Pearl Ewing the consolation prize. Impromptu music was enjoyed during the afternoon. The club ad-journed for the summer. Delicious refreshments were served to the following: Misses Lillian Jefferson, Minnie Cave, Pearl Ewing, Katherine Thistle, Eunice Ashford, Dorothy Flippin, Bertha Larkin. After the club, Miss Jefferson took the girls on a very enjoyable automobile ride. Then the girls ended the day with a theater party. Fifteen hundred will attend the Masons' annual picnic at Bloomfield park July 11th, the time, the place to meet all visitors. Good music; good order and a large crowd assured. ASKS EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR COLORED SOLDIERS None Named In List For Promotion In Regular Army. The Rev. Dr. J. Milton Waldron, pastor of the Shiloah Baptist church in Washington and organizer for the National Independent Political league, recently addressed the following open letter to President William H. Taft; President William Howard Taft, Executive Director of the National Independent Baptist Church. Dear Sir—Permit me on my own behalf and on behalf of the National Independent Political league to thank you for the stand you take against race prejudice in the army of the United States, of which you are commander in chief. Both myself and the league I represent stand for equal rights and opportunities for all American citizens, and we feel it our duty to encourage the self of men who aid the same principle. We would beg to remind your excellency of the race prejudice which now exists and has existed for more than forty years against the colored men in the army and navy of the United States and to appeal to you as the commander of the land and naval forces of our country to use your influence and a good hand in upholding this hydra headed monster from the army and navy of our beloved country. You will agree with me that the United States has no more loyal, brave, competent and self sacrificing soldiers than the colored men who have been and who are now enlisted in the army of this country, and yet feel a any iny of being in the regular army have been paid into the regular army as commissioned officers, and the examination of enlisted men for promotion to the position of second lieutenant in the regular army which you have ordered and which appeared in the public press June 9 does not contain the name of a single colored soldier, nor have any list for examination which has been ordered by you since your incumbency of the office of chief executive of the nation We cannot believe that you mean to be a party to race prejudice in the United States army, nor do we believe that in the four regiments of colored soldiers in the United States army there are no enlisted men who are capable of passing the examination for second lieutenant. It must be that your failure to order such men before the examining board of the army for promotion is an oversight, and we believe you simply need to have this matter called to your attention; you will the future be colored soldiers as well as soldiers of Jewish or Hebrew extraction the same opportunity afforded white soldiers. Yours for equal rights and opportunities for all American citizens. J. MILTON WALDRON, Pastor Shiloh Babist Church and National Organizer the National Independent Political League. DR. B. B. WRIGHT HONORED. Editor of Christian Recorder Elected a Delegate to Ecumenical Conference. The bishops' council of the A. M. E. church, which recently closed its two days' session in Wilberforce, O., elected a representative to the ecumenical conference of Methodists which will meet in Toronto, Canada, next October. The fortunate delegate is Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., the youthful but successful editor of the Christian Recorder, which is the official organ of the A. M. E. church. This conference meets every ten years—its last meeting was in London in 1901—and it is one of the most important gatherings in Christendom. Dr. Wright is a graduate of the University of Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania. He is one of the very few colored men who have won the Ph.D. degree from great American universities. His Ph.D. was conferred by the University of Pennsylvania, in which he had the distinction of holding the research fellowship in sociology for two years prior to his election as editor of the Christian Recorder. Progress Noted in Journalism. In order to keep pace with the latest developments in race journalism, Mr John H. Murphy, managing editor of the Baltimore Afro-American Ledger has added a typesetting machine to the equipment of his newspaper plant Since moving to his new office at 625 North Eutaw street, Editor Murphy has added upward of $500 worth of improvements to his establishment. Odd Follows' Jubilee Exercises Penelope Judith exercises. The series of Odd Fellow Jubilee exercises, under the auspices of the Hall association, which opened in the temple on Wylie avenue, Pittsburgh, on Monday evening, June 26, to run through to Friday evening, promises to be very profitable. Educational Congress WORD HAS JUST COME THAT W. H. LEWIS, WHO IS THE FIRST NEGRO TO EVER RECEIVE AN APPOINTMENT AS ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GENERAL, WILL BE IN DENVER IN AUGUST AND WILL ADDRESS THE NEGRO EDUCA- IONAL CONGRESS. DETAILS OF HIS COMING WILL BE PUBLISHED LATER. NOTICE Not because we wish to make odious comparison, but to prevent misunderstandings that arise when we keep silent. The Statesman wishes to give its rates for advertising entertainments and the reason for them. By the line, inserted in the local news advertising costs 5 cents. We have made a feature of entertainment advertisements, which are double column wide and six inches deep, and for these a uniform charge is made of $2.50 the first week and $2.00 for each week thereafter. These advertisements and all that are larger are given the best position in the paper, while smaller advertisements used for the same purpose, costing less in proportion, are given such other positions as remain when these have been placed. Therefore the six-inch double advertisement has been very profitable for entertainment givers and is almost universally used. It is inevitable that some persons think this rate high and will draw that conclusion from rates given en by other papers. We have no desire to injure our competition, but in justification of our own rates, which have been unchanged for the last six years. The Statesman offers to any and all persons interested the opportunity to investigate its Denver circulation. Come any Friday at 5 o'clock and see for yourself that we are delivering the papers we claim. We have made our rate as low as we can and live. Papers sending two and three hundred and claiming two and three thousand undoubtedly can make rates with which we cannot compete. But just as the larger amount costs the most, so the most circulation brings the larger result and is worth the most. The Statesman offers its circulation at any time in proof of its claim that it has three times the circulation of any colored paper in Denver. We hope this explanation of rates and conditions will set at rest the misrepresentations that have been used to confuse the public. IMPORTANT COMING EVENT IN EDUCATIONAL CIRCLES. State Teachers' Association to Hold Annual Session in Athens Athena, Ga.—The twenty-ninth annual session of the Colored State Teachers' association will be held in this town for three days, beginning Monday, June 19. Unusual interest in the coming meeting has been awakened because of the hearty co-operation in the work by some of the leading white educators of the south, two of whom will deliver addresses. They are Mrs. Walter P. Hill and Professor E. C. Bronson, president of the State Normal school. Everything is being done by the colored teachers to express the appreciation of the race for this timely assistance so willingly given by the white educators of the south. Much interest is also being manifested in the subject of agriculture, which will be presented in an attractive and helpful manner by Professor G. Crosby of the department of agriculture in Washington. Professor Crosby's views of the subject will be elaborated on by Dr H. F. Stockbridge of the Southern Ruralist. Dr. Stockbridge has given much attention and study to the subject for years, especially in its relation to teachers. As a result of the work of Director P. O. Parks of the agricultural department of Clark university the colored teachers have been greatly helped and are giving more time and study to the many new features of this phase of industrial training. The meeting of the association at this particular time will do much in the way of bringing about a better understanding between the white and colored teachers as to the best methods and systems to adopt in literary and industrial training. DENVER PERSONAL MENTION Social News and Personal Mention Continued on Pages Four, Five and Six A CREDITABLE AFFAIR. Miss Eva Jones, a recent graduate of Quindaro in music, entertained at a musical Wednesday evening complimentary to Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Parks. The program was well rendered, showing that each performer had made careful study of their selection. Misses Jones and Grant opened the program with a piano duet, which was followed by a vocal solo by Miss Jennie Hicks, piano solo by Miss M. Jackson, vocal solo, Miss Carrie Joseph; solo, Miss Senora Finley. Miss Grant, a vocal instructor of Quindaro, rendered two choice selections which, like the rest of the program, was highly appreciated. A toast was then given the bride and groom in which the speaker told in brief of some of their life's work, and wished them a pleasant journey through life's rugged way. LIFE LINE CLUB LIVES UP TO ITS NAME. A most remarkable charity which was begun some months ago by the Life Line club has just been brought to a close, when Mesdames Julia Hubbard and Florence Cooper, representing the club, presented to Mrs. Sophia E. Jones of 2857 South Sherman the release of the mortgage which had been hanging over her home. This club was inspired to extend the helping hand by seeing the heroic efforts which this widow was making for the care of her children and the saving of her home. Her serious illness which resulted from her nursing her husband in his last illness, together with the tasks above named, were more than the good women of the Life Line club could bear without extending aid. They began with monthly payments on the mortgage, and now that the summer vacation is at hand, raised the balance in bulk and paid it off. Miss Clara Coleman of Denison, Texas, arrived in the city Tuesday, and, together with Mrs. C. Franklin, is spending the week at the Navajo cottage. Mrs. Aggie Campbell, an old resident living near the depot, is dead and will be buried on Sunday if present plans hold. Mrs. Collins Price of Ft. Smith, Arkansas, is in the city. Mesdames Moten and Williams of Spokane who have been in the city visiting, return to their home today. This week they were entertained lavishly, Mrs. Ealy being their host on Tuesday at cards; Mrs. Abernathy on Wednesday morning at breakfast; Mrs. Jas. Holly on Wednesday night, and Mrs. J. R. Contee on Thursday night. They have been stopping with Mrs. A. R. Wilson. The Self Improvement and Social club will hold its annual outing today at Washington park and will have present about sixty persons. Mrs. John Turner is ill with rheumatism. Mrs. Laura Carson left the city Thursday for an extended stay in California. A. Froman of Engine 3 is taking his vacation. Mrs. Ella Savage was hostess at a party last week at which were present Mrs. Hendricks and Miss Ezell of Dallas. Harry Cowell goes to Waco, Texas, where he will be employed in the service, leaving early next week. FIVE CENTS A COPY ONAL MENTION Personal Mention in Pages Four, and Six The shirt waist ball of the young men at Old Colony hall Saturday afternoon was by far the largest yet given. It was a social success and set a marker for similar events. The picnic which the Progressive club of Central Baptist church gave to Littleton of the Fourth drew a good crowd which came and went all day. Several hundred people partook in the refreshments and enjoyed the fun which the committee had arranged. The Progressive club is composed of live young men who know how to do things. The Volcano company has secured new quarters at 23rd avenue and Washington. Mrs. W. E. Mitchell has returned home from the hospital and would be pleased to meet her friends. Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell are living at 421 25th street. A. Thompson left Monday for Bluefield, W. Va. Miss Lillie Hamilton left Sunday on a visit to Los Angeles. Miss Naomi White returned to the city from Kansas City Tuesday. The Wednesday Afternoon Study club will meet next week with Mrs. G. A. McCullough, 2631 Humboldt street. Miss Etwood Crawley and Elmer Troutman were married Monday, Rev. Wallace performing the ceremony. Mrs. A. M. Ward, Mrs. Rebecca Glenn, Mrs. Fannie Brown, Misses Grace and Bessie Williams went to the Chautauqua at Boulder this week. Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Herron have come down to Denver from Steamboat Springs. Glacier lake is the finest resort of its kind in all Colorado. The Welcome Club which carries an excursion there July 20 is the best of entertainers. Plenty of music, plenty of refreshments. Rev. Father Johnson of Hot Springs, formerly rector of the Church of the Redeemer, is in the city and will have charge of the services Sunday at that church at 11 o clock a. m. Mrs. Johnnie Contee returned Tuesday from Colorado Springs. Chas. Smithie has been unable to attend his work since Sunday on account of illness. The funeral of Mrs. Jennie Carris, who died last week after a brief illness, occurred Sunday afternoon from Central Baptist church with the True Reformers, the Household of Ruth and the Sisters of the Mysterious Ten taking part in the services. The funeral was preached by Rev. Edwards, after which Undertaker Lawhorn laid the remains to rest in Fairmount cemetery. Mrs. Jas. Martin continues in a serious condition. The funeral of John H. Watkins was conducted last Saturday morning from the home at 30th and Champa streets. The Episcopal form of service was used and the friends who hled the house, by their presence as well as by the flowers which literally covered the casket, showed every evidence of the sincere love they had for the deceased and th sympathy for his widow. The posto ce employees were especially thoughtful of their former associate. ENTHUSIASM IN CHURCH WORK FEATURES OF THE SERVICES. Remarkable Career of the Rev. Dr. P. J. Wallace, Who Has Successfully Pastored Many Churches—Effect of His Sermon on the Sins of Norfolk. His Future Is Bright. Norfolk, Va.—The recent celebration of the fifth anniversary of the Rev. Dr. P. J. Wallace's pastorate of the Calvary Baptist church, in Norfolk, which was held for two weeks, was marked by great enthusiasm and zeal by the members of the church, visiting clergymen and friends throughout the city. Among the participants were some of the ablest divines in the state, who preached logical sermons and eloquently eulogized the life of Mr. Wallace, who has wrought such great work in this and other communities. Special A. E. REV. DR. P. J. WALLACE. features of the services were the anniversary sermon, which was preached by the Rev. E. Payne, D. D., of Richmond, Va., and music by the several choirs that combined to make that important part of the services a complete success. All of his co-pastors in the city united in doing honor to the occasion, and each one was a participant in the services. The most notable event of the occasion was the outpouring of the spirit and the conversion of many souls to Christ. The Rev. Mr. Wallace was ordained to the gospel ministry Dec. 18, 1895, and first pastored the Shiloh Baptist church of Yorktown. Va., where he built a beautiful gothic frame church at a cost of $3,000, and, second, the First Shiloh Baptist church of Hanover county. Va., and built a nice frame church, which is a pride to the people, leaving it clear of debt. He also pastored the Mount Olivet Baptist church in King William county. Va. Realizing that he could do more efficient work in the gospel ministry with WILLIAMS MRS. P. J. WALLACE a helpmate, in July, 1900, he married Miss Eliza Quarles, an accomplished young woman, a member and faithful worker of the Fifth Street Baptist church of Richmond, Va., who has since been his willing assistant in all that he has undertaken. His fourth call was extended to him from the St. Paul's Baptist church, New York city, in 1901. At this time he was attending the Virginia Union university, where he had returned to take a postgraduate course. He found the St. Paul's church with an actual membership of about thirty-five worshiping in a dance hall which cost $105 per month for rent. After laboring with them about four years and a half he left them in their own place of worship, valued at $25,000, and a membership of 450. They have never accepted his resignation, and he is remem bered every holiday by some of the members of this church. members of this church. Rev. Dr. Wallace was called to the First Calvary church of Norfolk, Va. where he now pastors, October, 1905. He took up the work here March 18, 1906, and has since been well anchored in the hearts of the people of Norfolk, having the largest following of any pastor in the city. He has proved himself to be an evangelist as well as a pastor, having added hundreds of people to the church since beginning his work here. His sermons are both logical and instructive, and his hearers are always pleased to hear him. On one occasion he preached a sermon, subject "The Sins of the City," that was so farreaching in its effect upon the people of the city that he was requested to repreach the same, which he did with telling effect. So great was the interest manifested upon the repetition of this great sermon that the church could not accommodate the surging crowd that came out to hear him. Greater success is predicted for Dr. Wallace in his field of labor here in the future. RACE BENEFACTOR IN NEED. Attention Called to Apparent Penniesa Condition of Harriet Tubman Condition of Harriet Tubman It is reported that Harriet Tubman, the veteran anti-slavery worker, underground railroad promoter, civil war spy in the Union army and otherwise benefactor of our race, is almost penniless in an institution at Auburn, N. Y. Now, this condition ought not to exist when we have so many charitable and benevolent organizations fully able to financier a matter of this kind. There are two great organizations of colored women in this country, besides numerous smaller organizations, which might investigate this matter and see to it that this grand old heroine, pathfinder and precursor in many good movements for the race should not in her old age suffer for the necessities of life. Where is the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs? Where is the Northwestern Federation of Women's Clubs? Either of them could provide a comfortable living for Mrs. Tubman. This matter ought to be looked into at once. It would be a disgrace to our race if Mother Tubman were to die for want of proper attention in the evening of her useful life. RISING YOUNG MUSICAL GENIUS' BRIGHT FUTURE. Brilliant Work of Miss Marie Burton Praised by Mme. Hackley. Young, handsome, ambitious, a star at twenty, Miss Marie Burton of Chicago has broken many records as a songstress. She is perhaps the youngest singer who has ever faced a New York pre-Lenten audience. The celebrated Herman de Vries was her instructor, and she has sung before such critics as Andreas Dippel and Signor Gatti Casazza of the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. Even Mme. Azilia Hackley, known for years as the leading singer of the race, graciously yielded Miss Burton the palm—"She will in time far surpass me." Marie Burton was born in Chicago in 1890 and attended the public schools. She studied music under a private tutor and led the singing in Grace Presbyterian Sunday school. In 1906 she entered the Chicago Musical college and graduated in 1909. Further study was prevented by the death of her father. Williams and Walker wished to engage her, but the young woman aspired to a greater field than comedy. In 1908, a year before she graduated, Miss Burton represented Chicago at Mme. Hackley's musical festival at the Philadelphia Academy of Music. In 1910 she went to New York and was a star at the pre-Lenten. She spent two months in New York, enhancing her reputation. When Professor Harry T. Burleigh was unable to keep an engagement to sing at the exclusive Dutch Chapel church in Brooklyn he asked Miss Burton to take his place. She so captivated the audience that a member of the Vanderbilt family rushed up and planned a bouquet of orchids upon her corsage. In the colored social circles of New York Miss Burton became a lioness and could not keep half the engagements that were thrust upon her. Press comments on Miss Burton's voice have been without exception laudatory. The Chicago Evening News praised her. The Boston Guardian said that her voice was full of power and promise. The Record-Herald called her a dramatic soprano of unusual ability, and the Amsterdam News was even more complimentary. Race Prejudice in United States Army. That race prejudice in America is not confined solely to Afro-Americans is plainly seen in the case of Private Frank Bloom, who is a Hebrew by race, stationed, with his regiment, at Fort Myer, Va. Bloom is seeking promotion, and in considering his application the commanding officer is said to have disapproved of it on the ground that Bloom is a Hebrew and therefore will not make a "desirable social associate." Next Field Day to Be Held in Brooklyn The next annual field day of the famous Third regiment of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows will be held in Brooklyn on Thursday, May 30, 1912. The lodges in Greater New York will then have an opportunity to show the fraternity such hospitality as has been their wont to do for a long time. SUCCESS OF STATE SCHOOL. First Year at Maryland Normal Gratifying to Principal Goodloe. The first year of the Maryland Normal and Industrial school at Jericho Park, in Prince Georges county, Md., was a pronounced success. Professor D. S. S. Goodloe, principal of the institution, which is supported by the state, is very much gratified over the bright outlook for doing a much needed educational work in that section of the state among the masses of Afro-Americans.

While the mission of the Tuskegee (Ala.) student is primarily to record the progress and work of the students, graduates and friends of the Tuskegee institute, it nevertheless keeps a watchful eye, on the achievements of the race on the outside. It chronicles from the files of the Carnegie hero commission nine instances of daring and self forgetful devotion to others in peril which have won for colored men and women rewards given by the commission. In most of these cases the persons for whom death was braved were white. In six instances of heroism by colored persons at least one child was in danger of death when the effort to save life was made, nearly always with success. Two of the colored heroes perished in trying to rescue others. It is well to keep such facts before the people of this country of mixed races and many nationalities. It tends to broaden the American outlook upon great national problems and to raise the average standard of justice and fair play. There is no denying the evidence of manhood and womanhood of the highest type which is furnished by self sacrificing heroism. A man who dies or braves death to save a child not in his care or related to him in any way is none the less a hero of the finest type because his skin is dark. Physical prowess is so truly at the bottom of the greater part of man's progress that it cannot be disregarded or lightly valued by the narrowest racial bigots. The evidence which the Carnegie hero fund records furnish that the noblest kind of courage and the most stalwart manhood are found among all races and classes is a wholesome influence in American life. DR. COOPER'S FINE RECORD. Made Presiding Elder After Successful Pastorate In Brooklyn. In retiring from the pastorate of the Bridge Street A. M. E. church in Brooklyn, where he has pastored for the past five years, the Rev. Dr. A. R. Cooper made the following report of what he has accomplished during his administration: Conversions, 179; accessions, 1,092; baptisms, 134; deaths, 106; missionary money, $652.45; total money raised from all purposes, $38,390.26. Beside this splendid record the church has been renovated, is free from debt, and over $2,000 has been paid on the parsonage. Dr. Cooper is now presiding elder of the Albany (N. Y.) district of the New York conference of the A. M. E. demination. Generous Sums Given For Education.

When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities, all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on bald places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing is possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good") or referred to "PORO." We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind). See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE.

Entered as second class matter at the postoffice in the city of Denver, Colorado. Governor Shafroth, at the earliest intimation that the killing of an officer in Rocky Ford, Colorado, by a Negro might result in the latter being lynched when caught, asked the assistance of the leading men of that community in preventing such a blot upon the state, and offered the sheriff the assistance of the militia if necessary. His telegram read: Estes Park, Colo., July 5, 1911. H. W. Potter, Sheriff, La Junta, Colo. Understand there is danger of lynching negro. Protect at all hazard your prisoner. There is no excuse for mob law in Colorado. If guilty he is sure of punishment. Only one prisoner pardoned during my administration and he was innocent. Will call out National Guard if necessary. Colorado must not be disgraced We congratulate Governor Shafroth on the promptness with which he acted. At the same time we recall other occasions when lynching was threatened, and cannot but compare his action with the indifference of other governors, to their disparagement. So long was murder by mob condoned where negroes were the offenders, that it will require some time for the hotspots to learn that mere numbers does not give them the right to kill. Our comment upon this episode is incomplete were we not to mention the changed attitude of colored people. The fetish of the law which the white people of this country have raised for our adoration at all times, and for their own neglect when it suits their convenience, was sufficient for a long time to keep us in conformity. Certainly it received the moral support of Negroes who are considered good citizens. But so filmsy was the mantle of protection that law has thrown about us, even where we are not charged with crime, that it was no uncommon thing to hear sentiments expressed this week that Harris should run his course rather than submit to arrest and then be lynched. In other words, colored people have come to believe that white people have too little respect for the laws they make to forego the pleasure of a lynching. From a general respect for and obedience to the law, there has grown up a spirit among us that we must be sufficient unto ourselves at times. As the old Negro passes away and younger men come on, self sufficiency becomes more common. Moral support of self-sufficiency becomes more general. In no far distant day the whole crop of tares that has been sown by the indifference of officials to the upholding of the law, will be reaped unless strenuous efforts are made now to restore public opinion, black as well as white, to a healthy state. The interest in Africa not merely from the standpoint of its civilization and evangelization, but as a future home for our race, gives a larger importance to the reports which we get first hand from travelers who have been there. For thirty years European nations have exploited the dark continent for gain. They have preempted the best portions of it. Yet its untold wealth is barely touched. The address of Dr. H. H. Jones at the missionary mass meeting tomorrow therefore possesses unusual interest and should be largely attended. The report seems to be well founded that in a few days the Ninth Cavalry will once more be established in their old barracks at Ft. Russell, Wyo. The boys have been in maneuvering camp in Texas for four months and come away with records that are in the highest degree creditable. GRAND LODGE OFFICERS.

At the sixty-fourth annual session of the most worshipful grand lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the state of New York, held in Masonic hall. Fort-sexth street, New York, recently, the annual address of Most Worshipful Grand Master Henry A. Spencer and the greeting to the order by Grand Master W. M.

The great excursion which the True Reformers take out of Denver next month will have one feature that brands the manager, A. C. Cash, as a hustler. It is one car set aside strictly for old people, members of the various churches who will be taken absolutely free. Since the number who would go might exceed the car capacity, application for a seat should be made to Mr. Cash at 2838 California or to Rev. W. C. Williams. SCOTT M. E. CHURCH. Mrs. Anna Dawson arrived from Independence Kansas, last Saturday. She will spend the summer in our city. Her health was undermined while in the Southeast. Mrs. Dawson has been appointed superintendent of the Junior League, which meets at 3 o'clock. Parents are requested to send their little ones to the League and we will see that they reach home all right. Mesdames McPherson, Collier, Dawson, Wallace, and C. J. Collier and F. D. McPherson enjoyed a pleasant outing at City park last Tuesday. Mrs. Anna McPherson and her little granddaughter left for the mountains Friday to spend the summer. Mrs. Patten, recently from Omaha, received the sad news of the drowning of her brother in Wichita, Kansas, last Sunday afternoon. She left last Monday for Wichita to attend the funeral. A storm struck the parsonage last Wednesday night, led by Sister Pash, and when the debris had cleared away many eatable things were left for the pastor and his family. This was indeed acceptable on account of the high cost of living. Come aagin. The choir was reorganized last Friday evening. The following officers were elected: President, Mrs. Mary H. Mcks; secretary, Mrs. Lyles; treasurer, Mrs. Ada Castry; chorister, Mrs. Latrelle; librarian, Jessie Holmes. We expect great things from this organization. Miss Lelia Rice is the efficient organist. Mr. Cornellus Rice will leave for California next Monday. We regret much to see Mr. Rice leave at this time, as he is such an active and efficient member of Scott's. He goes on account of failing health. the o%cial board voted a subscription rally for the last Sunday in August. The board alone subscribed $52.50. We will begin on the membership next week.

I tried everything, I could hear of, for my cough, and was under the treatment of the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C., for a year, but could no relief. A friend advised me to try Dr. King's New Discovery. I did so, and was completely cured. I feel that I owe my to this great throat and lung cure."

Handy who is well known to Denver as the president of the Volcano Cleaning Company has recently secured another patent, this one a device called a self-freezing refrigerator. It proposes to surround a containing compartment with coils, which, when filled with chemicals, will convert the compartment into an ice cold chamber. The cost of operating this device is estimated to be 60 cents for eight months. Its efficiency can be judged by the fact that it will create four inches of ice by mere contact with the coils. When put into general use, it will furnish the easiest, cleanest, best and cheapest refrigeration on the market. A. R. Jones has come to the city from El Paso and spent the week here.

The pastor spoke at the morning hour, while Dr. H. H. Jones, of Liberia, Africa, preached at the evening service. Dr. John E. Ford, former pastor was among the visitors present. At the close of the Sunday school the rite of baptism was administered to three of the scholars, Lenord and Genevieve Coby and Vivian Dunn. It is most refreshing to see so many of our children coming into the church from the Sunday school which is the best evidence of the good work being done by our teachers. Great activity was shown in the B. Y. P. U. last Sunday evening. Bro. Walton's splendid control of this organization is becoming more apparent each week. The conduct of the lessons is intelligent and helpful, and the attendance and interest are on the increase. The subject discussed was "How Can I Best Serve My Country?" Young men and women who meet to study the Bible are serving their country in many ways of which they are not aware. The excellent service rendered by our choir last Sunday deserves special mention. Few of us realize the worth of this organization to our church. The faithfulness of its members, their earnestness and loyalty are among the forces which make Zion progressive. We are thankful that most of our sick are convalescent, the exceptions being Mrs. Fields, at St. Anthony's and Brother Andrews, who are both very ill. A lady from Cheyenne, visiting our service Sunday evening, lost $30.00 in currency in the church. This is a very regrettable circumstance and we are making every effort to recover it. Any one who might have found the money will receive $5.00 by turning it over to the pastor or any of the officers. Let us not forget the great carnival of all nations and midway to be held at the home of Brother L. H. Walton, 162 Fillmore street on July 26, 27 and 28. This is destined to be the greatest entertainment of its kind ever given in the city. Watch for fuller announcements. At 3 o'clock Sunday a great missionary mass meeting will be held at the Shorter A. M. E. church, under the auspices of the Ministers' Unio. Dr. H. H. Jones will address the meeting on the subject, "The Best Methods or Evangelizing Liberia." Dr. Jones will relate many of his experiences covering a period of more than four years, while many curious relics will be shown. KILL MORE THAN WILD BEASTS.

What he thinks about fish he can best tell himself, but ye editor confesses with pride that he has discovered bushes and rocks by the score that were hitherto uncharted in those turbulent waters. Not a rock or bush from South Platte to Dome Rock escaped him. But the fish—why, they refused to eat the bait, raw, boiled, stewed or fried. We now understand why the singular and the plural of fish is the same—so that ambitious Isaac Waltons may draw the long bow and yet keep in sight of the truth. All persons thinking of going fishing may come to this office and get an avidaffit signed and witnessed, illuminated and framed, that so far as the editor is an authority, there is not a fish in all Platte canon. Yet such is the vanity that possesses our little souls, we shall he forth again, this time armed with rocks and a baseball bat, and we will bring home the bacon, if we have to get a diving suit to get it.

THE ALLIANCE NOTES. The July program of the People's Sunday Alliance was all that was expected of it. The name of Rev. Ford, founder of the organization, was the magnet that drew the people who comfortably filled the house. His address upon "Observations in the Southland," was instructive. But while the address of Rev. Ford was the feature of the occasion it was not the only number on the program for Dr. John Grass who spoke upon "The Need of Civic Virtue," was well received and highly approved by the audience. The music was furnished by Genevieve Coby, Muriel Henderson, Ora Warfield, Toussaint Dunn, Galena Andrews, Ruth Warfield, Andrew Kirk, Lena Lewis, Ethel Reese, burkle Harkie Harville, Darlene Reese, Louie Cates, McAlbert Banks, Ernest Harris, Willie Otis and Leonard Coby who composed Zion's Junior choir with Miss Beatrice Thrashily as pianist and Mr. Chas.

Death seemed close on my heils, when I began, three weeks ago, to use Dr. King's New Discovery. But it has helped me greatly. It is doing all that you claim."

A., Suddenly Resigns. By N. BARNETT DODSON. At the annual meeting of the committee of management of the Carlton avenue branch of the Y. M. C. A., in Brooklyn, held the last week in April, Secretary Robert P. Hamlin's report showed an increase in the membership of the association and also that the fiscal year closed without a deficit. The election of officers, which was by ballot, resulted as follows: Chairman, Wyatt Eugene Tyler; vice chairman, Richard I. Jackson; recording secretary, Norman D. Johnson, Jr. After remarks by different members as to the bright outlook of the work for the ensuing year Secretary Hamlin created a sensation by announcing that he had partly decided to resign the secretaryship for the purpose of entering the international work of the Y. M. C. A., as he had received a call to that field. The members of the committee at once gathered around him for information as to why he had acted so hastily in the matter without informing either the officials of the branch or the general secretary of the central association of his intentions to sever his connections with the Carlton avenue branch. But the only satisfaction Mr. Hamlin gave was that he thought the matter between himself and the international committee had gone too far to be withdrawn. "It is practically out of my hands. I have decided to go," said Mr. Hamlin. Robert P. Hamlin is a native of Northampton county, N. C., and received his literary training at Shaw university, where he graduated in the class of 1900. During his student days at Shaw university Mr. Hamlin became interested in Y. M. C. A. work. Soon after his graduation he returned to Springfield, Mass., whither his people had gone several years before. In order to prepare himself for Y. M. C. A. work Mr. Hamlin entered the International Y. M. C. A. Training school, graduating with the class of 1904. In December, 1904, Mr. Hamlin went to Washington to superintend the organization of the Y. M. C. A., which has since grown into a flourishing association, with a new $10,000 building. After fourteen months' work in Washington Mr. Hamlin was called to his present position as secretary of the Carlton avenue branch, Y. M. C. A., of which he took charge in February, 1906. He is well qualified for his work, fond of athletics, music, bowling and other attractive features of the physical side of the Y. M. C. A. work. MRS. HANDY MAKES DENIAL Not Trying to Absorb Southern Foreign Missionary Society. Mrs. James A. Handy of Baltimore, president of the Parent Women's Mite Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, most emphatically denies the story published in an Atlanta (Ga.) daily that her society was planning to absorb the Women's Home and Foreign society of the denomination, which operates exclusively in the south. The latter society recently ended its quadrennial session at St John's church, Birmingham, Ala. "I hardly know," says Mrs. Handy in an interview. April 29, "how such a story could get afloat unless it was circulated by some minister who is trying to advance his own fortunes by being elected to the next general conference. Mrs. Laura L. Turner of Atlanta, president of the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary society, and I have just exchanged fraternal greetings, in which she invited me to attend the session held in Birmingham. The feebleness of Bishop Handy prevented my going, however. "Our society pays $2,000 a year for the carrying on of the work; for the week of the denomination in West Africa, $800; South Africa, $160. This represents about 40 per cent of our total collections. The remainder is used to assist poor ministers in this country. We send Rev. W. W. Beckett, secretary of missions, a voucher for all the money paid out by us." "Our society was organized thirty-five years ago, when Rev. Charles H. Morsell of Bowie, Md., was sent to Haiti to build a church. The other branch was organized twelve years ago. Half of the money it raises is sent to Rev. W. W. Beckett for the foreign work. We on our side, would welcome a plan for the unification of our forces." GREAT BAPTIST REUNION. To Be Held In Second Baptist Church, Everett. Wash. July 14. The Baptist denomination of the far west is arranging to hold a great reunion in Ewett, Wash., in July. The sessions of the gathering will be held in the Second Baptist church, of which the Rev. J. L. Murray is the pastor in charge, beginning on Friday, July 14. The growth of the denomination in the west during the past ten years has been phenomenal. Among the able ministers who have settled in the west within recent years are the Rev. Dr. J. A. Dennis, formerly of Baltimore; Rev. William Perry and the Rev. S. G. Wilson, who is one of the prime movers in the coming reunion. The Rev. J. P. Brown has the distinction of holding the longest pastorate of any minister of the race in the far west. The educational sermon will be preached by the Rev. Dr. R. H. Thomas, pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist church, Portland, Ore.

Washington Principal Tuskegee Institute Tuskegee, Alabama The enrollment at Tuskegee Institute for the school year just closed was 1,702. Of this number 1,114 were young men, 221 of whom took agriculture as a trade. The advantages offered by the Agricultural Department of Tuskegee Institute are exceptional. The teaching is excellent, the latest improved implements are used and the very best breeds of live stock are maintained. The following industries are offered: Farming, truck gardening, fruit growing, care and management of mules and horses, dairy husbandry, dairying, poultry raising, swine raising, beef production and slaughtering, canning and veterinary science. It is impossible for the institution to supply the demand for persons trained in agriculture. Applications come for persons to teach agriculture in various schools, while others are wanted to manage dairies, to oversee the work of a large plantation, to operate a truck farm. Good salaries are offered. The school farm consists of 2,400 acres; 1,000 acres of this land are under cultivation. In the farming division it is the plan to raise all foodstuffs as nearly as possible for the 1,200 head of live stock owned by the school. The young men in this divi- SPORTS AND THE STAGE BY,LEON PRYOR THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN PICNIC, SEPTEMBER 4TH. The big picnic that was to have been last Monday evening at Bloomfield park under the auspices of the Rocky Mountain Athletic club, was postponed until Labor day on account of the heavy rain July 3rd. So everybody will keep off the date of Sept. 4th. Labor day, for the big R. M. A. A. picnic, the greatest in Denver. IN NEED OF NEGRO LIGHTWEIGHTS. Since the days of old Joe Gans and several other negro lightweight fighters, it seems that there are very few to aspire or even come near being a negro lightweight champion. But at the same time Gans was champion, there were all kinds of clever colored lightweights. Such men as Mississippi, Hack Bones and Jack Blackburn, who should have made the top had it not been for Gans, but they are all back numbers now. What is much wanted now at present is more negro lightweights. Among the heavies there are plenty, Jack Johnson, Joe Jennette, Sam McVey, Sam Langford and others, who can take care of all the boys above 158 pounds. So a colored lightweight at this time could make barrels of chingle. HARRY CRATON COMING. The world's unknown hoop roller and company, Harry Craton and his wife, a former Denver girl, Mrs. Ethel Clark Craton, will appear at the Pantages theater of this city in the near future. Their act is said to be far better than when they appeared here the last time, some four or five years ago. ELKINS AND HICKMAN AT THE TUILERIES. The team of George Elkins and Mrs. Hickman, formerly Miss McDaniels, are certainly holding the boards out at Tullieries park, Denver. Their act consists of clever song and dance work and their costumes are up to the minute. They will close next week to play the Pantages for ten weeks. THE R. M. A. CLUB'S LADIES' DAY Stop, look and wait, girls. The R. M. A. club will have a summer afternoon for you and your friends, so don't fail to take advantage of the last ladies' day until fall season. There will be the best of entertaining. Date issued next week. THE AUTUMN LEAF DANCE A SUCCESS Never in the history of afternoon dances has there ever been one as successful as that of the Autumn Leaf club, given last Saturday afternoon at Old Colony hall. The boys and girls were all looking their best and the music rendered by Profs. Joe Red- sion get a splendid opportunity in general farming and in the use of improved farm implements and intensive methods. Three and four crops are grown each year on our truck garden, in which there are eighty acres to grow vegetables for the school and town. This division has realized from $300 to $400 an acre on some of its garden land. The truck garden operates two vegetable wagons. Peaches, strawberries, grapes, pums, pears and figs are grown in the fruit growing division. Eighty aces are devoted to this kind of work. The division of care and management of horses and mules, has 172 head of stock under its charge which are used to do the work on the farm and the hauling of the school. The dairy husbandry division contains a berd of 212 head of cattle, which supply milk to the dairy, which is made into butter and cheese or sold as wh... or skim milk to the boarding department of the school, and to the town. Any young man with a purpose in view can secure an agricultural education at Tuskegee Institute at little expense to himself. or information as to courses of study, expenses, etc., letters should be addressed to Washington skegee Institute uskegee, Alabama mond and Frank Gains was all that could be asked for, and Mr. Jesse Stone is due much credit, as he is one of the young men in Denver who is quite capable of pulling off what you might call a jolly good time dancing party, and all ended well. TAMPA, FLORIDA'S NEW THEATRE. The new Dixie theatre at Tampa, Fla., opened its doors last week to the public under the management of Mr. Alfred Predinger, a young colored business man of Tampa, and from all indications the Dixie will enjoy many seasons of prosperity. GREEN & LEDMAN. A. N. Green and William Ledman have formed a new act and appeared at the Gergen Airdome, Jersey City, last week and were immediately booked on the P. B. O. line under the management of Mr. Plunkett. COMING, BIG BUCK DANCING CONTEST. At the Rocky Mountain Athletic club in the near future will be held the second annual dancing contest. All entries must be made at the bar of club house. Glacier lake is the finest resort of its kind in all Colorado. The Welcome Club which carries an excursion there July 20 is the best of entertainers. Plenty of music, plenty of refreshments. It was a year ago this past Fourth of July that Jack Johnson beat the hardest man alive. That man was Jetfries, which you all know, and iwth Jack never had a possible show. It was a great event, that I'll admit, But Jeff wasn't there with that colored gent. Why, he fought like a kid that couldn't hit, And Jack whipped him with much content. But I know, the same as Wm. Gaul, That Jack would win without a fall. He oat his man and beat him much, And now Jeff is afraid of a baby's touch. But now Jeff is all in, out and down, While Jack, the champion, wears a crown, And Jack can never be put on the ground STAGE FOLKS. Ada Overton Walker is rehearsing a large new act preparatory to appearing at the Follies, New York city. Brown & Sheftel are playing this week in Boston and are making a big impression. A. G.

It has had a steady growth. The number of students enrolled this year was 265. Its staff of employees numbers twenty-five. Its teachers are graduates of some of the best schools in the United States. They are from Hampton institute, Tuskegee institute, Knoxville college, Talledega college, New England Conservatory of Music, Ohio State university, Oberlin college, Columbia university, Chicago university, Virginia Industrial institute and the West Virginia Colored institute. Probably no other school in this country has sent PRESIDENT BYRD PRILLERMAN. forth young men and young women who do more efficient work than the West Virginia Colored institute. Its graduates are laboring as ministers, teachers, doctors, lawyers, farmers, mechanics, dressmakers and millers and cooks throughout the state of West Virginia and in various portions of the country. The school owns seventy-seven acres of land in the best part of the Kanawha valley, six miles west of Charleston. The school is surrounded by one of the most flourishing communities in the United States. Every foot of land in the immediate vicinity of the school POSTP UNT LABOR POSTPONED!!

There are no saloons or other places of evil to entice young people. The sermon to the graduating class this year was delivered by the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, the able and successful pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist church in New York. Unusual interest was taken in the speaker and his logical discourse from the fact that he was reared in Kanawha county, in which the school is located. Dr. Powell's subject was "Despise Not the Day of Small Things." Graduation orations, besides the salutatory, by Jessie Fields, and the valedictory by Roscoe Clarkson, were delivered by Quillian Jones, Harry Davis, Alonzo Ellis, Boyer Lee and Linda Scott. The address to the class was made by Professor J. Frank Marsh, assistant superintendent of free schools. The graduating class numbered fifty members from eight states of the Union and southeast Africa—twenty-two normal, twenty-five academic and three commercial. When the African student, Robert Sisusa, received his diploma from the hands of Professor Marsh, there was great applause. Mr. Sisusa has been in this country six years, the last two of which were spent at the West Virginia Colored institute. He will study medicine and then return to his native land. President Byrd Prillerman is doing a splendid work as head of the institute. He is fully capable and has the highest respect of both state officials and the citizens of the community in which the school is located. The above statement is verified in the growing efficiency of the school as seen by the number of applications constantly received from the outside for teachers and trained workers. Applications for enrollment for the next school year are already coming in and the prospects are that the school is likely to be overcrowded another year. It is not, however, the policy of President Prillerman to build a large school at Institute. But it is his ambition to build the best colored school in the United States. To this end his special effort is fundamentally to the development of character and efficiency in scholarship and trades. One half of the time is devoted to literary studies and the other half to trades. This makes the student not only proficient as a scholar, but also a good artisan. The school was established by an act of the West Virginia legislature approved in March, 1891. --- Limit of Color Prejudice Reached. "When the Indians go to drawing the color line the limit is reached," says the Pensacola (Fla.) Sentinel. "If we are not as good as the white man, according to the Bailey creed, we certainly are as good as the Indian, who has scarcely emerged from the forest and fishing pond and who has not yet got used to wearing civilized raiment. Whither are we drifting?" Not drifting at all, Brother Lewey. We have anchored, and that's what alls "Hannah."
