Denver, Colo., Aug. 12, 1911. This morning at 10 o'clock the National Negro Educational Congress convened at the Shorter A. M. E. church. This Congress is made up from delegates selected by the governors of the various states and is one of the most representative bodies of Negroes in the country. The only business of importance transacted during the morning session was the appointment of committees and the adoption of a resolution to celebrate with a National convention in 1915, the fiftieth anniversary of the adoption of the thirteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States. Hon. G. T. Wasson of Missouri and Banker Wm. McDonald of Texas made speeches that electrified the Congress.
Among the most prominent delegates here are the president, Prof J. Slin Harris, Hon. G. T. Wasson, Missouri; Dr. E. J. Fisher, Chicago; Rev. A. A. Cosey, Mississippi; Prof Inman E. Page, Oklahoma; Rev. E. A. Wilson, Kansas; Rev. Goode, Virginia; Hon. Wm. Harrison, Oklahoma; Dr. Tyson, Oklahoma; Prof. Jetter, Iowa; Judge Bradley, Kansas; Banker Wm. McDonald, Texas; Miss S. Elizabeth Frasier, New York; Dr. J. C. Taylor, Ohio; Dr. Harper, Ohio; Rev. J. W. Randolph, Mississippi; Dr. J. T. Caston, Missouri; Mrs. Mary E Nero, Kansas, and Dr. J. B. Dudley, North Carolina.
Afternoon.
This session was called to order by Colonel Wasson, Kansas City, Mo. The singing was conducted by Dr. J. C. Taylor of Ohio. Prayer by Dr. W. T. Hall of Va. The journal of the morning session was read by the Sec. Mrs. Jessie D. Robertson, Denver.
After some discussion by Prof. Dudley of North Carolina and Dr. Caston of Missouri, the minutes were adopted. The committee on credentials consisting of Rev. J. W. Randolph of Mississippi, chairman; John W. Jones, Kansas; Mary E. Nero, Kansas; Rev. J. W. Rodgers, Mississippi; J. D. Harkless, Colorado, and Rev. J. C. Taylor, Ohio, submitted the following—It is the sense of the committee that all delegates appointed by the governors of the several states constitute the membership of this Congress. The report was discussed by Rev. L. L. Downing, Virginia; Prof. J. W. Randolph, Mississippi; N. Jetter, Iowa; Rev. W. T. Hall, Virginia; Rev. J. M. Williamson, Mississippi; Judge Bradley, Kansas; Banker Wm. McDonald, Texas, and others. Dr. E
J. Fisher, Chicago, offered a substitute motion that the credential committee report names of persons present with credentials fro mthe governors of the various states. Carried. Th calling of the roll by states showed that 42 states were represented. Mr. B. R. Johnson, Colorado, motioned that visitors to the Congress be allowed to wear the badge of the Congress as honorary members. This was strenuously objected to by Miss S. Elizabeth Frasier, New York; Prof. N. Jetter, Iowa, and Dr. E. J. Fisher, Chicago. The motion was tabled. Rev. A. E. Edwards of Denver motioned that a committee on constitution and bylaws be appointed. Carried. The following is the committee: Rev. R. S. Wilkerson, South Caro-

The National Negro Educational Congress, if it served no other purpose than to be the occasion of the monster gathering of colored people at the Auditorium last Sunday, has served a great purpose. Only those who were present can guess—and they only in part—the tremendous moral effect of the outpouring of one third Denver's colored population. The realization of numerical strength, the demonstration of good conduct, of pleasing and fashionable dress, of proper appreciation of Negro brain and eminence, will count throughout the lives of those who were present. The meeting was of such character that it will live in memory. The lessons of health brought by Prof. Dudley, the call to higher life by Prof. Page, the artistic musical renditions by Mrs. Lillian Jones and the quartet composed of Mesdames Dishman, Fife, Jones and Eva E Carter, accompanied by Mrs. Nettle Herndon, the dramatic work of Mrs. Moton, found in this vast assembly of 3,000 people a fit setting.
The National Negro Educational Congress assembled at the Auditorium in a great mass meeting, Sunday at 3 p. m.
The audience joined in singing America and Rev. Dr. Goode of Danville, Wa., offered prayer. Miss Lillian Jones charmed the audience with her perfect and sweet rendition of Toreado Love Song.
Madame Fannie E. Motin, A. B., of Lincoln Institute, Kansas, gave a reading from Shakespeare. Her manner of rendering showed genius and training. She was greatly applauded and gave Hagar as an encore.
Mrs. Helen Wixson, superintendent of public instruction for Colorado, was introduced by the president, Hon. J. Silas Harris, and in a very pleasing manner welcomed the Congress and said education had brought four great L's—Light, Liberty, Life and Love.
The president then introduced Prof. Inman E. Page, president of Langston university of Oklahoma.
He spoke in part as follows:
"We have been asked what is our aim, our purpose and it should be our pleasure as well as our duty to answer. We have assembled for the purpose of joining in the uplift of the Negro race.
"We mean to do this by exerting our every effort to raise the standard in our homes. The forces set in operation around the firesides are the ones that will bring the uplift or downfall of a race.
"Unless the fathers and mothers set up the highest standard of fatherhood and motherhood in the home the condition of any race is hopeless.
In the hands of Negro mothers, is the destiny of the Negro race.
Te greatest political convention are held around the fireside.
"The mother is the maker of the minister of the gospel, of the college president, of the lawyer, of the doctor and of him who rules in the
White House. Home must be madd more sacred and a greater instrument for the uplift of the people of our race. The moral standar dof wife and motherhood must always be high. It is our duty to insist that our wives stand on the very highest plane of maturity and then we must see to it that no man, white or black shall be tolerated who attempts to tear down the virtue and character of our women.
"We also demand that the father also come up to the standard, no man has a right to demand a greater degree of virtue or character of his wife than he is willing to live up to.
"I am one of those Negro men who stand with women, with a whip in hand to lash the men to a higher plane of manhood. It takes two parents to make the moral standard of home what it should be.
"We insist that the same kind of education that is given to white boys and girls must be given to black boys and girls.
"We believe in industrial education but no more for our boys and girls of other races. A proportion of all races should be industrially educated. The Caucasian, the Chinese, the Japanese, the German, the Negro and all other races and nationalities should have some that have an industrial training but they need men and women that are educated along other lines.
"No girl should be allowed to grow to woman and motherhood without knowing how to cook her own meals and make her own clothes, she should know how wto play on the wash-board as well as on the piano.
"Before becoming a candidate for a man's hand she should know how to mend his breeches. All work is honorable. See to it that the children are educated in the public schools and then educate according to the genius portrayed. God calls blacksmiths, carpenters, farmers and hodcarriers as well as ministers of the gospel and others engaged in professional work. Many who call themselves professors should be mauling rails. We must have leaders, we must have lawyers, political lawyers, who are skillful and fearless and who will defend us in our rights. The time is coming and is fast approaching when we will have to contend as men and women for our rights and this must be done in an intelligent manner. Some have said that this Congress was organized for the purpose of promoting the interest of some political party, but just here let us say, we are not in partisan politics and are not here to promote the interest of any political party but if for any party, that party is the Negro race.
"It is not the ambition of the Negro race, east, west, north or south to dominate in politics but it is his ambition to participate.
"If we are called upon to bare our breasts to the shot and shell of battle and to pay taxes, it is our right to participate in managing what we have defended and are supporting. Any man, whatever his politics, who denies this is not a patriot of these United States. No patriot will desert the Negro who has given his life's blood to defend his country.
"We must educate our boys and boys and girls along all lines for God

BAND COMING
The people of Denver will have an opportunity on Sunday to hear the world famous 9th Cavalry. Their coming is to help the Cheyenne boosters advertise their frontier celebration. They will appear in public concert at some public place such as the capitol grounds. The full particulars of their engagement are not yet available. The 9th Cavalry band has the honor paid it of being picked out of the three regimental bands available at the army post and being alone accorded the honor of bidding for the trip. While here they will be accommodated en masse in lodgings and board.
BUSINESS ESSENTIALS.
Right Choice, Knowledge and Efficiency Necessary to Success.
With public and high schools, academies, colleges and universities, agricultural schools, farmers institutes and local business leagues in all sections of the country there is no reasonable excuse for any one remaining ignorant. Efficiency is the watchword of the times. Competition is close, and therefore business methods are more exacting than they were a decade ago.
In every ambitious movement in business, society, church, state or nation there is a striving for the mastery, and the person that is not willing to make the sacrifice necessary to make his line of work compete with or excel his competitor will have to be satisfied with second, third or the last place in the line of commercial endeavor or what not. There should be no middle ground in business, no motionless period, for unrest is written on the doorpost of every reputable business establishment.
While some of our strongest and longest established business concerns have either failed or ceased to exist for other reasons, the great bulk of Afro-American industry remains solid. Some have gone under because of lack of funds, others doubtless on account of being in the hands of inexperienced persons. In either case there is a lesson for the coming business man, who, if wise, will use these drawbacks as stepping stones upon which he will rise to success in the business world.
Again, many persons fail in life because of a wrong choice. One should consider well the kind of business he wishes to enter, the character and possibilities for its development and his knowledge of and ability to conduct the business which he chooses. These are essentials of the first importance. Many persons go into business simply because they see others succeeding along certain lines without reference to any or either of the foregoing necessary qualifications. This is a mistake which is bound to result fatally, leaving discouragement if not disaster in its wake.
Give Honor to Whom Honor is Due.
Speaking of giving honor to whom it is due, we know of no more potent influence working for the good of the race in public affairs in New York than the Amsterdam News, of which the level headed James H. Anderson is the managing editor. For the appointment of J. S. Battle on the police force, for creating sentiment in favor of a colored regiment in the New York national guard, for a penny savings bank in Harlem and for breaking up dens of vice the glory belongs to the Amsterdam News more than to any other agency.

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-

ston 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 acres 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 herd of 212 head of cattle, which supply milk to the dairy, which is made into butter and cheese or sold as whisker 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.

WRESTLING WITH THE BEAR.
But Baptist Convention Fears to Come Into Wicked Nineveh.
Referring doubtless to the most radical sentences in the report of the committee on state and country, at the thirty-seventh annual meeting of the New England Baptist missionary convention, which was held in Providence, R. I., in June, the Huntsville (Ala.) Negro Fortune Teller in its issue of July 29 takes the matter rather seriously.
It said the Baptist convention in the north has adopted strong resolutions against lynching, but you know they are way up north, out of the way of harm and danger, and, like Jonah, they fear to come into Nineveh, that great and wicked city.
We thank our dear brethren for the interest they take in us, but it seems to be rather deceitful when they see us wrestling with the bear from a far distance and only send us a bundle of resolutions.
SOUTHERN LIFE MAGAZINE.
August Number Has Many New Features—Date of Issue Changed.
The Southern Life Magazine has changed its date of issue from the 15th to the 1st of the month. The August number is brimful of wholesome reading matter and is adorned in a neat new top dress.
Among the leading subjects are "Impressions of London and the Coronation." by Rev. Dr. H. H. Proctor; "The Mysterious Card," a short story by Wilson Carr Lowery, and "The Teacher's Problems," by Traveler.
The leading editorial thought is devoted to a discussion of educational advantages in Atlanta, in which statistics are given by comparison between white and colored schools. The magazine is picking up in advertising matter and bids fair to live long, reflecting as it does the higher aspirations of the race.
Plea For Greater Race Solidarity.
We should endeavor under all circumstances to patronize race enterprises and institutions. The great number of colored people throughout the country are "asleep" along this line, says the New Rochelle (N. Y.) Standard-Journal. To patronize each other in business brings about race solidarity and makes our influence more keenly felt. This is the main thing that we need to instill into the mind of the average young man and woman of the race.
The August Number of the Crisis.
Among the many interesting articles in the Crisis Magazine for August are "Men of the Month," in which is given an account of the activities of Messrs. Joel Elias Spingarn, Gilchrist Stewart and Robert N. Woods; "Views of a Southern Woman," "Dr. Du Bois In London," "The Kongo Express" and other timely, information which it brings to view under its editorial flashlight.
Rev. Dr. J. H. McMullen For Bishop. Among the prominent candidates for the bishopric of the A. M. E. Zion church is Rev. Dr. J. H. McMullen, the successful pastor of Little Zion A. M. E. church in New York. Dr. McMullen is considered good timber and is in the forefront of the candidates for the Zion episcopacy. He stands well in the New York conference, of which he is a member, and has had an interesting career as a churchman.

The Rights of All Citizens Demand the Appeal of the Harris Case
Tae district court sitting in Lo Junta, presided over by Judge Essex, has found Robert Harris guilty of first degree murder and the sentence of death has been passed upon him. His father has been found guilty also, second degree being found against him.
The decision of the judge and jury tha officers of the law, upon information that trouble has occurred in any home, have the right of entry without warrant, is such a reversion of the generally accepted view of the inviolability of one's home, that the Harris case has outgrown, the mere consideration of his life and liberty, has outgrown the probable affront shown the Negro race through him, and has become a case in which all citizens of both races can well afford to take interest. That a court would permit a howling mob to surround the building in which a jury is deliberating and lay that jury liable to the accusation that its opinions were influenced by popular opinion, after having refused a change of venue, does not tend to make one believe that a fair and impartial trial was its aim. Yet so astounding is the law as interpreted and so much violence does the opinion do to established custom, that for the sake of the rights of everyone, and disregarding the effect it will have on the Harris case, the Statesman believes his case should be appealed. The colored citizens from whose ranks the victim of this latest legal monstrosity has come, ought to take the lead.
Let everybody consider this matter more than an academic problem, it is Colorado's beginning of unequal application of the law, a twisting to do injustice to a black man because he is black. We can get little public support because a Negro is unjustly treated, but when we show the people of the state that just as every attempt made upon our liberties has finally been used to injure white people, so now, this decision effects everyone, we can get the moral support of all good men.

HOW TO MAKE BUSINESS.
Efficient Service and Well Prepared Copy the Keynote.
Albon L. Holsey, advertising manager for the Crisis Magazine, strikes the keynote to business in the following advertising essay: We hear much of the "color line," and, according to our ambition and station in life, we meet this national disgrace in a more or less aggravated form. But some one has said "there is no color line in business," and we must admit there is some truth in this statement.
If the best tailor in a city was a colored man his trade would hardly be confined to colored people, for when it comes to the matter of exchange of dollars for workmanship and service most people are apt to forget traditions and select the place that insures them the best returns for their money, theoretically at least.
The colored tailor, grocer, baker, contractor or persons engaged in any line of business endeavor fostered by skilled wormmanship have an equal chance, because there is no unwritten law against white people patronizing businesses of this kind when conducted by our people. Certainly they have an equal chance to tell the general public about their business, and the man who tells his story in the most convincing manner will eventually get this business. No prejudice can batter down a business that enjoys the confidence of the people, and just so high as the standard of quality and service is raised in shops conducted by colored people in the same proportion will this chance leave the theoretical and approach the practical.
Our business men should put such convincing arguments before the people as will create a steady demand for their goods and services. These advertisements should be carefully prepared, should be conspicuously placed and should be readable and interesting.

THE AMERICAN RACE PROBLEM
Sane View of Its Cause, Present Effect and Future Status.
DR. DU BOIS GIVES THE FACTS
Graphic Account of the Upward Struggle of Ten Million Colored Americans, What They Have Achieved and the Unfavorable Conditions Under Which They Labor Along All Lines.
Two-thirds of Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois' speech before the universal races congress, recently held in London, was devoted to a comprehensive summary of the history of the Negro race in America. He outlined the conditions under which slavery existed, gave the statistics of population and discussed the figures for health and crime.
He quoted the fact of the 2,500 lynchings in the last twenty-five years and showed that only one-quarter of these colored men were even accused of rape. He gave a brief outline of the reconstruction period and dwelt on the fact that the colored legislators, whatever their faults, gave the south the beginning of a public school system, admitted thousands of poor whites to the suffrage who had previously been debarred and abolished many barbarous forms of punishment. He analyzed the occupations of the Negroes of today thus—2,000,000 laborers, divided into 1,250,000 farm laborers, 500,000 day laborers and 250,000 washerwomen.
These he called "the semisubmerged class, some held in debt peonage and paid small wages.
There are 1,235,000 workingmen, divided into 125,000 skilled artisans, 575,000 semiskilled workers and 500,000 servants. "This is the emerging group. They are handicapped by poor training and race prejudice, but they are push-

There are 250,000 independents, divided into 200,000 farmers, 40,000 professional men and 10,000 merchants. "This," he said, "is the leading group of Negro Americans. The mass of them have common school training, and there are some 5,000 college trained men. They are accumulating property and educating their children. Their advance is opposed by a bitter and growing race prejudice." After giving the figures for the accumulation of property Dr. Du Bois took up the present situation, which he analyzed as follows:
The American Negro problem is the question of the future status of the 10,000.000 Americans of Negro descent. It must be remembered that these persons are Americans by birth and descent. They represent for the most part four or five American born generations, being in that respect one of the most original American groups in the land. Moreover, the Negroes are not barbarians. They are as a mass poor and ignorant, but they are
THE STATESMAN-4
growing rapidly in both wealth and intelligence, and larger and larger numbers of them demand the rights and privileges of American citizens as a matter of undoubted desert. Today these rights are largely denied. In order to realize the disabilities under which Negroes suffer regardless of education, wealth or degree of white blood we may divide the United States into three districts—the southern south, containing 75 per cent of the race; the border states, containing 15 per cent, and the middle and outer containing 10 per cent. They receive a distinct standard of justice in the courts and are especially liable to mob violence, are segregated so far as possible in every walk of life—in railway stations, railway trains, street cars, lifts, etc.—and usually made to pay equal prices for inferior accommodations.
They are often unable to protect their homes from invasion, their women from insult and their savings from exploitation; are taxed for public facilities, like parks and libraries, which they may not enter; are given meager educational facilities and sometimes none at all; are liable to personal insult unless they appear as servants or menials or show deference to white folks by yielding the roads, etc. To many of these disabilities there are personal] and local exceptions. In cities, for instance, the chance to defend the home, get an education and somewhat better wages is greater and mob violence less frequent. Then there are always some personal exceptions—cases of help and courtesy, of justice in the courts and of good schools. These are, however, exceptions, and, as a rule, Negroes, no matter what their training, possessions or desert, are subjected to the above disabilities. Within the limits of these caste restrictions there are much good will and kindness between the races and especially much personal charity and help.
How the Race is Distributed
The 15 per cent of the Negro population living on the border states suffer a little less restriction. They have some right of voting, are allowed to vote, and are less discriminated against in the expenditure of public funds. In the cities their schools are much better, and public insult is less noticeable.
In the north the remaining 10 per cent of the Negro population is legally undiscriminated against and may attend schools and churches and vote without restriction. As a matter of fact, however, they are made in most communities to feel that they are undesirable. They are either refused accommodation at hotels, restaurants and theaters or received reluctantly. Their treatment in churches and general cultural organizations is such that few join. Intermarriage with whites brings ostracism and public disfavor, and in courts Negroes often suffer undeservedly. Common labor and mental work is taken to them by their employers in skilled labor or the per person jobs, save as they serve their own race, are extremely difficult to enter, and there is much discrimination in wages. Mob violence has become not infrequent in later years.
There are here also many exceptional cases, instances of preferment in the industrial and political world, and there is always some little social intercourse. On the whole, however, the Negro in the north is an ostracised person who finds it difficult to make living or spend his earnings with pleasure. Under these circumstances there has grown up a Negro world in America which has its own economic and social life, its churches, schools and newspapers; its literature, public opinion and ideals. This life is largely unnoticed and unknown even in America, and travelers miss it almost entirely. The average American in the past made a claim of excusing the discrimination against Negroes on the ground of their ignorance and poverty and their tendencies to crime and disease. While the mass is still poor and unlettered, it is admitted by all today that the Negro is rapidly developing a larger and larger class of intelligent property holding men of Negro descent. Notwithstanding this, the Negro is still a driving force which involve the treatment of civilized men in an unequivilized manner.
This philosophy the thinking Negroes and a large number of white friends vigorously combat. They claim that the racial differences between white and black in the United States offer no essential barrier to the races living together on terms of mutual respect and helpfulness. They deny, on the one hand, that the large amalgamation of the races alike accomplished the unhappy character of these unions. On the other hand, they deny any desire to lose the identity of either race through intermarriage. They claim that it should be possible for a civilized black man to be treated as an American citizen without harm to the republic and that the modern world must learn to treat colored races as equals if it expects to advance. They claim that the Negro race in America has more than vindicated its ability to assimilate modern culture. Negro people do not defend the flag in every war in which the United States has been engaged. They are a most important part of the economic strength of the nation, and they have furnished a number of men of ability in politics, literature and art.

Johnson stated that the winning team was indeed the champion team of the state because no other team dared to contend against them. Then too, that the drill team was the only one in the state to drill without the spoken commands to the commandress but with the tap of a bell. Congratulations to the team and sincere thanks. The judges were Mr. Gallmore, Mr. Elliston and Mr. Johnson.

Then see pimples, boils, eczema, salt rheum and sores multiply and strength and appetite fall.

RUMOR CORRECTED.
Denver, Colo., Aug. 7, 1911.
Relative to the erroneous belief in the mind of many of our acquaintances, both here and elsewhere, that Dr. Justina L. Ford has caused a divorce between Nelson T. Fisher, my husband, and myself, I can best evince the falsity of this statement or belief in saying that we are still living together as husband and wife; the marriage certificate has never been burned nor declared null and void; neither have I at any time accused him of criminal relations with the Dr. Ford, but what I have said in regard to our recent trouble remains the same, for truth never changes. I can forgive the extreme unkindness that was enacted against me.

CONVENTION FOR FOREIGN WORK
Lott Carey Baptist Association to Meet In Wilmington.
SUCCESS ON MISSION FIELD.
Organization Named For Former Slave, Who Devoted Many Years to Uplift Among the Heathen In Africa, Was Founded by the Rev. William M. Alexander—Work of Woman's Auxiliary.
Wilmington, N. C.—The fifteenth annual session of the Lott Carey Baptist foreign mission convention will begin in the Central Baptist church, Wilmington, on Wednesday, Aug. 30, and continue until Sunday, Sept. 3. Rev. Dr. G. W. Moore, pastor of the church, has about completed arrangements for the entertainment of the delegates, who will come from a number of states. Besides taking up the primary work for which it was organized, the convention will also discuss civic questions affecting the interests of

both races, especial emphasis being laid upon the difference in conditions in the old and new south.
The convention had its real beginning in a suggestion made by Rev. Dr. W. M. Alexander, pastor of Sharon Baptist church, Baltimore, that some special work should be done for education and missions in Africa. A number of ministers met at Shiloh Baptist church, Washington, in 1897, and the Lott Carey association was organized. Rev. Dr. Calvin S. Brown of Winston Salem, N. C., was elected president, a position which he has held ever since.
The convention is named for Lott Carey, who was born a slave in Charles City, Va. He went to Richmond at an early age and joined the First Baptist church, which was then composed of white and colored persons. He attended school for awhile and was later licensed to preach and soon thereafter evinced a desire to do mission work in Africa. With the proceeds from extra work in a tobacco factory he purchased the freedom of his wife and two children in 1822 and then went to Africa.
The convention has raised $40,000 for mission and educational work in Africa. Five missionaries have been stationed in the dark continent and over 2,100 converts baptized by them. Two missionaries died on the field. Rev. C. C. Boone has served in the Kongo five years. He graduated from Leonard Medical college, Raleigh. N. C., this year and will soon return to Africa as a medical missionary. A woman's auxiliary, headed by Mrs. L. A. Hone, has also rendered great service. There are more than 100
MRS. L. A. HOPE
auxiliaries in the various churches in the convention, and their day at the annual meetings is always a great occasion. The remaining officers of the auxiliary are Mrs. A. L. McGuln, Baltimore, corresponding secretary; Miss M. E. Wilson, secretary; Mrs. M. L. Penn, treasurer, and Miss S. F. Faton, W. M. Moss, Mrs. M. R. Johnson, Mrs. C. S. Brown, Mrs. A. L. Somerville, Mrs. A. Truu, Mrs. B. G. Collins and Mrs. R. B. Yancey, vice presidents.
The convention's success is largely due to the work of its corresponding secretary, Dr. Alexander, upon whose shoulders the greater part of the planning and responsibility for the work has rested. He has been pastor of Charon church, Baltimore, for the past twenty-six years. He has been prominent in a number of movements for racial uplift and is president of the Maryland Suffrage league, which has been fighting disfranchisement since 1905.

Ariss, Concord, Mich., who writes: "I have used Dr. King's New Discovery for 30 years, and it is the best cough and cold cure I ever used." Once it finds entrance in a home you can't pry it out. Many families have used it forty years. It's the most infallible throat and lung medicine on earth. Unequaled for la gripe, asthma, hay fever, croup, quinsy or sore lungs. Price 50c, $1.00.

My Dear Madam Perkins:—
Your treatment has done all for me
that you said it would do. When I
paid my first visit to you when in
Philadelphia last January, my hair
was coming out by the combs full.
My scalp was full of dandruff or
scurf, as you explained it to me. Now
my scalp is clean and pliable, and
my hair has grown several inches
longer. It has so changed that I
scarcely recognize it as my own hair. All of this is owing to having heard of the wonderful Madam Perkins, and I pray that God's blessing will ever rest upon you and the good work which you execute so justly and conscientiously to all. Kindly find enclosed order for another supply. Thanking you and hoping you are well, I am.
Very sincerely,
Georgia Jackson,
12 East 68th Street.
Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 11, 1911.
Dear Madam Perkins:
I really feel it my duty to write
and tell you just what your treatment
has done for my hair. When I started
using your tretment my scalp was
full of dandruff, and my hair was
breaking off very fast. I thought if
I did not get something for my hair
I would soon have no hair. My hair
is now grown four inches in length. I
am very proud to say, I feel as if I
can never praise your treatment
enough for what it has done for me.
After using it for twelve months it
has done all that you claimed it would
do. I recommend it to all my friends
and I recommend Madam Perkins as
a thoroughly reliable woman, and I
am proud to be a member of her
class.
Yours very respectfully,

Dear Madam Perkins:
You will find enclosed $5.00 for
which please send me another six
months' supply of your scalp treat-
ment. I can safely say that your
treatment has stopped my hair from
falling out and has done all that it
was recommended to do. I shall use
it as long as i can.
Yours truly,
Ella N. Ford,

Wilmington, Del., Jan. 9th, 1911.
Dear Madam Perkins:
I have been using your scalp treatment for seven months now and I am glad to say that it has grown my hair wonderfully. When I first started to use your treatment I could hardly pinch my hair and the first time I used the treatment my hair was greatly improved. Before hearing of Madam Perkins I used everything to make the hair grow. I think every woman should use your scalp treatment, as it is the best in the world. I am proud of my hair and will recommend Madam Perkins and her wonderful scalp treatment to every woman. I expect to use Madam Perkins' preparation as long as I can buy it.

LOCAL LEAGUE'S GREAT WORK
Twelfth Annual Meeting of Mammoth Organization, Which Has Convinced the Nation of the Negro's Capacity For Commercial Advancement, Responds to Governor Donaghey's Invitation.
Little Rock, Ark.-The twelfth annual meeting of the National Negro Business league, which was called to order in Kempner's theater, this city, on Wednesday, Aug. 16, at 10:30 a.m. by the Hon. John E. Bush, chairman of the local executive committee, brought together a large and representative number of the solid and successful business men of the race. Besides being the guest of the local business league of the city, the national organization comes at the personal invitation of Governor George W. Donaghey, who a year ago sent the following letter to President Washington in New York:
Aug. 8, 1910.
Booker T. Washington, President, National Negro Business League, New York
City.
Dear Sir—I have followed with interest the different meetings of your organization from year to year. I have noted its growth and the rapid spread of its influence. I believe that your organization is doing much to encourage business ventures among your people, thus widening their scope of usefulness and helping them to see the necessity of utilizing the resources of our country. As governor of the state of Arkansas I take pleasure in extending to your league through a cordial invitation to hold your next annual session in the city of Little Rock. Should your organization see all to accept I can assure you that everything possible will be done by our citizenship to make your visit both pleasant and profitable. Very truly yours.
G. W. DONAGHEY, Governor.
After the formal opening of the convention addresses of welcome were delivered on behalf of the state, Little Rock Business league, the State league

and on behalf of the citizens. The first subject on the program was "How I Bought My Farm." J. W. Thomas of Kansas. Other subjects discussed during the day were "Truck Farming as a Business Investment," "Contracting and Building." "Advertising One's Business," "Manufacturing" and "Real Estate." The feature of the evening session was the annual address by Dr. Booker T. Washington.
Added to the harmony that prevails in the local committee, the white citizens of the city and state are co-operating to an extent that, to say the least, is surprising and reassuring. The entertainment committee of the Little Rock chamber of commerce has given $500 in cash toward the entertainment of the convention, besides providing the beautiful Kempner's theater, the most costly in the state, for the place of meeting. Individuals among the white merchants and prominent colored people all over the state have contributed all the way from $25 to $250. The local committee has upward of $5,000 for the entertainment of the convention. The grand lodges Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and Mosaic Templars have each given $100.
Homes for more than 3,000 visitors were provided. The local street railway company offered enough cars to take all the visitors on a sightseeing trip around the city. A side trip was arranged to the wonderful Hot Springs of Arkansas, and several important social functions were arranged by the ladies of Little Rock. The banquet on Friday night, Aug. 18, was a magnificent affair.
H. H. Garner, superintendent of city delivery; Dr. J. A. Thornton, chairman of the executive committee; Dr. W. O. Foster, treasurer, and Hon. Scplo A. Jones, president of the local and state leagues and fourth vice president of the national league, together with various members of the local committees, worked hard to make this meeting the great success that it was.

Continued from first page has a place for all that have brains in the head and a heart in the body, "Some day in spite of all obstacles and hinderances, the Negro will in some way, demonstrate to the world the unlimited fatherhood of God and the universal brotherhood of man." A female quartette consisting of Mrs. E. M. Dishman, Miss E. M. Carter, Mrs. Irene Fife and Miss L. H. Jones entranced the audience with its rendition of Rosemary's Bridal chorus.
Dr. James B. Dudley of Greensboro, N. C., and president of the A. M. college, read a most interesting, powerful and logical paper on "How to Live Better and Longer Than We Are Now Doing." He made his paper more telling by the use of charts. He dwelt on the ravages of typhoid fever, pneumonia and tuberculosis among our people and the alarming death rate as compared to that of other races.
On Monday afternoon the keys of the state were turned over to the delegates by Governor Shafroth in an address of welcome that was really a broad dissertation upon the meritorious labors of the Negro since emancipation. The governor expressed the belief that the beginning made was only a foreshadowing of what is yet to come. He was responded to by Dr. Tompkins of Kansas City whose remarks elicited a round of applause. Dr. Tompkins is formerly a University of Colorado student and he made the most of his happy association with the state. Acting Mayor Robertson spoke on behalf of the city and his welcome was responded to by Wm. McDonald of Texas.
The program of the evening was largely literary and musical. Mrs. Alice Webb in a thoughtful paper on woman suffrage furnished a theme for thought in a manner that did her great credit. Mrs. Wixson, state superintendent of public instruction, responded. The Queen City Musical association made its first public appearance. All that its friends had hope dfor it was realized. It is a tribute to the endeavor of its members and the ability of its instructor, Hewiston Watson, that permits no gainsaying. The singing was a revelation to Denver. The audience was so large on this occasion that Shorten overflowed.
The constitution remained the order of the day until Tuesday at 1 p.m. In the afternoon and evening the election of officers and choosing of place for the next meeting were taken up, closing with addresses on topics designed to benefit the race. The election resulted as follows:

NATIONAL CONGRESS
A feature of the Congress was a number of the delegates of Mrs. Hattie Brus side. Just after the afternoon at the A gathered up 26, am Lawyer Wassom, Prof. Foster, Dr. Co Rev.

of the president's chair in the organization, was re-elected to succeed himself for another year. J. C. Dudley of the College of Greensboro, N. C. made a worthy opponent against Harris for first honors and was defeated by a small margin. Other officers elected were William H. Harrison, vice president; A. A. Cosey, Mississippi, treasurer; Miss J. C. Alves, Kentucky, recording secretary; H. R. Graham, Kansas, corresponding secretary; M. C. Nix, South Carolina, statistician; Rev. H. M. Tarbell, San Antonio, Tex., chaplain; Mrs. S. C. Rogers, Kansas City, stenographer, and Dr. Taylor of Ohio, music director.
After a bitter fight lasting for a long time and amid a flood of oratory and at times debate that approached to wrangling, St. Paul was chosen for next year largely through the efforts of J. R. White of that city.
A resume of the work of the Congress would show that in numbers it was smaller than was expected. The local committee which had in charge the arrangements, had secured accommodations for several times the number of delegates that came, and not withstanding the impression got abroad from the daily press, that delegates went un-housed, such is not the case, more than 50 rooms remaining after all were placed who came. Then too, in many cases, delegates nad friends who cared for them leaving the committee no part in the work.
The character of the delegates who came, was such that Denver can feel honored in their part in the Congress. Presidents of colleges, lawyers, prominent in their home cities and states, ministers of national repute, business men of more than state-wide fame, were here and lent their activities to the Congress
In point of numbers and standing, guaged by distance, Virginia was the best represented. Missouri was looked for to bring several hundred, but the special train brought less than one hundred. The method used by President Harris in not occupying the presiding officer's chair at all times himself, permitted a variety of different classes of runings and some times occasioned difficulties. On the whole the Congress in its Denver meeting was occupied with formative work, the constitution and the making of decisions effecting its work. The discussions ad addresses laid down were to a degree dimmed by legislation. Yet only time can tell the inspiration that will come to those who listened to its deliberations and witnessed its one great mass meeting.
ONED!! TIL
A feature of the social side of the Congress was a dinner tendered a number of the delegates at the home of Mrs. Hattie Bruce on the North side. Just after the speaking Sunday afternoon at the Auditorium, autos gathered up 26, among whom were Lawyer Wassom, Wm. McDonald, Prof. Foster, Dr. Cosey, Lawyer Free, Rev. Ford, Lawyer Spraggins, Prof. Dudley, Prof. J. Silas Harris, Prof. Inman E. Page, Lawyer Bradley.
The service was in courses and from soup to coffee was of the best. These distinguished visitors, who have come from all parts of the country and been served on many such occasions, sald of the dinner that it was the finest ever. The service no less than the cuisine and the agreeable company contributed to the perfect whole. After the dinner a short auto spin was taken over the city.

E. E. Chamberlain, of Clinton, Me. boldly accuses Bucklen's Arnica Salve of stealing—the sting from burns or scalds—the pain from sores of all kinds—the distress from bolls or piles. "It robs cuts, corns, bruises, sprains and injuries of their terror," he says, "as a healing remedy its equal don't exist." Only 25c at all druggists.
What Professor J. H. Blackwell Has Accomplished as Educator. By CLEVELAND ALLEN.
One of the most successful public school principals and educators of the south is Professor G. H. Blackwell, the well known principal of the Murray street public school, Richmond, Va. The Murray street public school, which is regarded as one of the largest and best equipped public schools in Richmond, has a nine months' course, ranging from the kindergarten to the ninth grade.
The school has a daily attendance of about 900 pupils. The school has had an interesting growth, the success of which is due to the energy and interest of Principal Blackwell. In 1890 when Professor Blackwell took charge of the school as principal he found the school doing business in an inadequate frame building of six rooms. He set about to erect a new building and succeeded in building a splendid modern brick structure which is the present home of the school.
The school wields considerable influence in the city of Richmond and its graduates do well, many of whom enter the higher institutions in the city and state. Professor Blackwell is devoted to the work of uplift among the masses in the south and is amply prepared for his work. He graduated from the public schools and entered Virginia Union university in Richmond, from which he graduated.
Shortly after graduation he entered the medical department of Howard university, spending a year and a half. He had entered upon his second year at Howard when he was called to the principalship of the Murray school. This summer he is attending the summer sessions of Columbia university. New York, specializing in English literature and other academic branches. In 1908 Princeton university conferred upon him the degree of doctor of philosophy. Professor Blackwell is not only prominent and active in educational work, but is identified with every movement that tends toward the betterment of the race. He has had a large experience and before entering educational work was a newspaper editor and well known business man.
