MELBOURNE.
"Really, Mr. President," said Mr. Dexter. "I think if you will allow your mind to revert back prior to the American Revolution, when you were in the practice of law, you will perceive that many of those rules you call technical and of which you now disapprove were essential guard to the innocent and very important to the correct administration of justice."
"I admit," said Mr. Jefferson, "that general principles, or rules if you please, ought to be well fixed in the mind of the lawyer, and I insist that in the proper application of those rules to particular cases oblities the skill and mastery of the lawyer. It is
and the rigid adherence to them, or which I complain. A large portion of forensic debates is about names instead of principles or facts. The scoop Polly, in descending the Potomac, runs upon the scoop Hope, and in a moment ruins her owner. He commences an action of trespass against the owner of the scoop Polly, and because he has called his action trespass, instead of trespass on the case, is cast in the suit and immersed in a heavy bill of costs. This, to my mind, is manifestly wrong, and yet thousands of cases of this kind occur, and discussions respecting them occupy a large portion of the time of our courts and the labor of the lawyer. More general science and more common sense should be mingled with the technical learning of the legal practitioner. While I administered the United States government I endeavored to reduce this doctrine practice by the manner in which I selected the judges of the supreme court of the territory of Michigan. That court was composed of three judges. I selected for one of them Mr. Woodworth of Virginia. He had spent his life in the study of natural and moral philosophy and really was a man of great general knowledge."
"So he was," Interrupted Dr. Mitchell; "I knew him well. I have read his theory of the tides of the lakes with great pleasure."
"Though," continued Mr. Jefferson, "I confess Judge Woodworth was a little visionary. Another of these judges I selected from Pennsylvania. He was a dry, technical lawyer, and would not believe two and two made four unless you could prove it by an adjudged case. The third was a large strong-handed and strong-minded Vermont farmer who had perhaps never seen a law book except that which contained the statutes of Vermont, and who heartily despised all legal learning. Thus I formed a court consisting of a philosopher, a lawyer and a clear-headed, common sense Vermont farmer."
mont farrier.
Chief Justice Marshall, who had sat profoundly silent, though I could now and then perceive something like a phosphoric coruscation in his keen black eye, now laid down his knife and fork and said, with a sarcastic smile: "And how did your plan operate, Mr. President? Did your machine go well?"
"Upon my word," said Mr. Jefferson, "it would not go at all."
"It must have been," said Elder eland, "like a cart with three horses, one at each end and one at the side, all pulling in different directions."
At this we all laughed heartily. Even the solemn face of the chief justice was moved to visibility.
tice was After this a conversation ensued on conduct of the New England dates during the war then lately no. One justified their course. Mr. Dexter regretged that the constitution had not veeted the national government with greater powers in such
"No," said Mr. Jefferson, "I cannot join you in that; instead of adding, I would take from the general
government some of the powers it already possesses and restore them to the states. I would leave to public opinion the correction of the errors into which one or more states may temporarily fall. The general government is now too strong. The independence of the states may be crushed by it. This is a matter upon which my opinion has long been formed and I do not believe I shall ever alter it."
"I grant you," said the chief justice, "that the general government in time of peace is strong—by means of its patronage in this office-loving country, perhaps it is too strong. For here, as all men profess to love the people, all men are anxious to serve them, regardless always they can be well paid; but in time of war the case is far different. In a free government there always will be parties holding different and adverse opinions. A majority of the people of Massachusetts honestly, as I believe, for I agreed with them, thought the last war with Great Britain was unwise if not unjust and wished to terminate it. A majority of the nation equally honest believed the war necessary and proper. Massachusetts, with the other New England states, expected, as she had a right to do, all her constitutional power to place the national government in a condition which would induce it to make peace. The states severally possess all the attributes of independent government. Each state has a legislative and executive department; it has a treasury, a judicial, a means of its chartered banks money, and it has its militia, whose officers it appoints, an organized army. The New England states therefore had all the means, if I may so express myself, of legalizing rebellion against the general government. They refused, as they had constitutionally the right to do, to loan their money to the nation, and in consequence of it the money of the nation, in the shape of a balance or accounts, flowed into their coffers and was there hoarded. When the news of peace arrived, the credit of the general government was prostrate, its regular army was reduced to less than 8,000 effective men, and it could not recruit that army because the national treasury was bankrupt and not a dollar in coin could be furnished to pay the soldier. Hence it is most evident from experience as well as from reasoning that the more power you confer on the individual states the more you weaken the defensive power of the nation, and the more you endanger a division of the Union."
Before Mr. Jefferson had time to begin a reply, Mr. Dexter said he did not apprehend any danger of a separation of the states from any difference of opinion as to the ordinary measures of government. The people of every state are strongly attached to the Union and to prevent a division both parties will always yield a little. Public opinion will force leading politicians into a compromise, "But there is one evil," continued Mr. Dexter, "from which I apprehend that dreadful result—I mean slavery in the southern states and the slave representation."
"Oh," said Mr. Jefferson, "dismiss your fears on that subject; slavery will soon be abolished in all the states."
"Never," said Judge Marshall; "never by the voluntary consent of the slave-holding states."
"I regret," replied Mr. Jefferson, "that no attentive an observer as you should entertain such an opinion. I well knew that at the time American Independence was declared no member, either North or South, expected that slavery would continue as long as it has."
"I can well believe that," said Mr. Wirt. "For they must have felt that the continuance of slavery was direct-
ly adverse to their declaration, that all men are born free and equal, etc." "But," said Dr. Mitchell, "I very much doubt whether according to the laws of nature, the Africans are not formed to be subject to the Caucasian race. From my own observation I am satisfied that nature has formed an essential difference between the two races and much to the disadvantage of the Negro race." (Here, we are told, the doctor went into an analytical discussion of the subject, using the same stereotyped arguments still in vogue among a certain class of ethnologists and scientists, who profess to believe that the Negro is actually inferior to the Caucasian. The doctor maintained that if Mr. Wirt's position that all men are born equal is politically true, it is physically false.)
"As regards personal rights," said Mr. Jefferson, "it seems to me most palpably absurd that the individual rights of volition and locomotion should depend on the degree of intellectual power possessed by the individual. I should hardly be willing to subscribe to the doctrine that because the chief justice has a stronger mind, or a more capacious and better formed brain than I, that therefore he has a right to make me his slave."
"But, doctor," continued Mr. Jefferson, "may not the diet and exercise bodily and mentally of a child, produce some effect on the size, shape and quality of the brain? I will suppose that my friend Dexter has two sons, the eldest of whom shall be six years old, as nearly alike as brothers of the age of five, or six generally are. Suppose the younger to be transferred to a rice plantation in South Carolina placed in a Negro cabin and brought up with field slaves, associating only with them; and that the elder should be continued in Mr. Dexter's family, associate with none but highly intellectual people; then let his education be completed by four years' residence and tuition at Cambridge. Look at the heads and faces of these boys when they shall respectively arrive at mature age, and then at a phrenologist, Dr. Spurheim if you please, pronounce upon the mature intellectual power of each. Do we not all know that the difference would be immense?
"But to do justice to the Negro race, and in order to carry out the experiment fairly, we ought to suppose that the younger has married a Caucasian slave; and let Dr. Mitchell dissect and compare the heads of the great grandchildren of that issue with the great grandchildren of the issue of the elder brother. I ask what would be the result of that experiment?"
"I do not mean to advocate slavery," said the chief justice. "I wish from my soul it was abolished; but when we calculate on political results we must look at society as it is. I do not found my opinion on the perpetuity of slavery upon any natural inferiority of the Negro. You are all well aware that nearly every man of the South who possesses any influence at our elections is a slave holder and hence our legislators will be slave holders, or under their influence. Probably nine-tenths will be actual slave holders. You have then a pecuniary influence to contend with which you cannot overcome except by force. Slaves are by law property; and do you expect that a man will voluntarily and without consideration surrender his property to individuals or to the public? The British Parliament may, and probably will, abolish slavery in the West India islands. But suppose nine-tenths of that Parliament should be composed of the planters of Jamaica—when, then, would slavery be abolished in Jamaica?
Mr. Dexter will, I presume, admit that banking is a monopoly, and that monopolies ought not to be tolerated; but will Mr. Dexter give up and sacrifice his bank stock? I tell you, sir, you may as well expect that the farmers of Virginia will burn up their title deeds and give away their farms as to give away their Negroes. You, Mr. President, ascribe too much virtue and benevolence to our people, if you suppose the disposition to emancipate the Negroes is increasing. You must recollect that at the commencement of the Revolution, Chancellor Wythe and yourself were deterred from introducing a bill into the legislature for the abolition of slavery, because you became satisfied that the time had not then come when the public mind was prepared for the adoption of that measure; but you then anticipated that it would soon be reviewed more favorably by the community. Your expectations, how Continued on Lost Pace
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO.
On Wednesday evening of last week at the residence of Mrs. Eliza Rice, occurred the marriage of Miss Eva P. Jones of Denver and Mr. Alfred Cunningham of Chicago, Ill. A prettier home wedding has never been solemnized than this one. The house was most beautifully decorated, pink and white being the color scheme. The dining room was profusely strung in hearts of contrasting colors with streamers reaching from the highly polished table to the ceiling. In the pastor the same effective scheme was carried out. The bride wore a dainty white mull, carrying bride's roses. She looked charming and girlish. The groom was attired in the conventional black. Rev. Stephens performed the ceremony with the couple standing beneath a bell of white and pink. The happy couple received a number of useful and beautiful presents, cut glass, table and bed linen, embroidered pieces, hand painted china, cooking utensils, silverware, etc. Only a few intimate friends were invited. The bride cut her cake and her friend Miss Mamie Moore of San Antonio, Texas, tied each piece with pink baby ribbon on presenting it to the guests. Mrs. Rice served dainty refreshments. A large crowd charvaired the couple. All congratulated the couple, hoping them a happy and joyous voyage.

DENVER PERSONAL MENTION
Social News and Personal Mention Continued on Pages Two, Four, Five and Six
The delay in the delivery of The Statesman last week was one of the unfortunate events over which we had no control. On Friday noon, just as the last of our forms were locked, the press feeders struck for higher wages. One side of our paper was then printed. Not until Monday, when they returned to work, was it possible to complete the printing. Had the strike occurred a few hours earlier or a few hours later, we would have served the news as usual. We are sorry. Yet we have so often preached that excuses are not satisfaction to a customer who pays good money and gets poor service, that we will not ourselves rely very much on what words may do. We will let our 12 years of punctuality and regularity speak for us, and better still, we will get out a newsy paper with the more zeal because circumstances combined to make us slip once.
Y. M. C. B. BEGINS WINTER WORK
On Tuesday night nearly a hundred men assembled at Shorter church and took up the measures that would give the best results for the Young Men's Christian Brotherhood for its fall and winter work. A feature of the evening was the surrender of the office of secretary by Wayman Ward. As a token of appreciation by the members of the Brotherhood, he was given a purse of ten dollars and was eulogized quite extensively by some of the speakers. J. W. Jackson was chosen as secretary to succeed him and Clarence Holmes Jr. was chosen as his assistant.
The athletic proposals will be the special subject of a future meeting. It will be remembered that the Y. M. C. B. was sponsor for the football team that trounced the Kansas City team last fall and there is now talk of a return match with Kansas City as the challenger.
During the past year the association has been guided by Dr. DeFrantz as president and Wayman Ward as secretary. Having gotten past the stage when its ability to exist is in question, it has begun to mean much to the community. The work of the officials, therefore, has brought larger results. These two have been eminently successful in enlisting the services of the young men themselves so that the association has become a vital need, a part of the activity of young Denver, a good habit which they have formed. There is little of the spectacular in the beginning of such good works and it is therefore the more necessary that the public look and see to whom it is indebted for the foundation work by which it profits.
AT THE BETHLEHEM BAPTIST CHURCH.
Tomorrow there will be an unusual preaching service at the afternoon meeting. Seven different aspects of the Judgment will be handled in ten-minute addresses by seven different preachers. The whole service, from beginning to end, will occupy two and one-half hours. It is expected to make it memorable among the many good services held during the revival.
LICENSED TO PREACH
There was a meeting extraordinary at Shorter church Wednesday night. A special quarterly conference was convened by Presiding Elder Owens to consider the application of A. Wayman Ward, eldest son of Rev. A. M. Ward, to preach. The church was comfortably filled and a vast hush fell upon the audience when the occasion of the meeting was stated. In feeling words the father portraved the ambition of the tom, and rather by the quietness of

the tone than by any effort at oratory, his audience was one with him in prayerful anticipation that he might not hope in vain that the rolling years will show the wisdom of the young man's choice. Wayman Ward then made an address, his trial sermon. It dwelt upon the divine call that had actuated some Biblical characters to enter the ministry, Samuel, Paul and Jeremiah. Stating his own belief in his call to the ministry, he expressed the desire to be licensed. After being questioned on the points of doctrine prescribed for entrance to Payne Theological Seminary at Wilberforce University, he was unanimously recommended by the church to the quarterly conference. The conference thereupon took up its session and granted him a license. At the close of the double meeting there was a regular levee, with him as the center. Many expressions of profound admiration and offers of help were his. All in all it was a service of such impressive meaning that few will ever forget it. On Thursday night at the parsonage there was a farewell given him by all the friends. This farewell, the services Wednesday and the commendation of the Y. M. C. B. Tuesday night, made a round of well wishes the like of which have never been given any young man in Denver's history. Being the beginning of his ministerial career, it is all that friends can do. The result is in the hands of Time.
Mr. Ward left the city yesterday noon and goes directly to Wilberforce
ANNOUNCEMENT.
Rev. D. E. Over will return from the East and especially from the National Baptist convention brim full of information, which he will dispense from Zion's pulpit tomorrow. The meeting has been called the greatest in the history of the denomination and the message it sends Rev. Over will deliver in his usual clarion clearness.
While away Rev. Over spoke in the church of which Rev. E. W. Moore is pastor. Rev. Moore is one of the leading ministers of Philadelphia and used to pastor Zion here. He had time to visit the metropolis, also Washington, while gone. He says one of the leading steps taken by the convention was the removal of the missionary headquarters to Philadelphia.
The closing of the rally which Zion church began this month has been set for Oct. 8. The returns still come in and no one knows what the harvest will be.
EXTENDING THE WALLS
Services at Shorter church tomorrow will be the real beginning of the year's work. Rev. Ward has so far recovered from the attack he incurred while down in Missouri that he will take charge of the services. The evening services will begin a half hour earlier. He says that great preparations are being made in Kansas City for the entertainment of the General Conference. Allen chapel, which is already an immense church, is extending its walls toward the parsonage so as to provide room for the throng which will fill it for 30 days in next May.

Annual Address
All Missionary Societies of Denver are invited to hear this

appointed to this high position in the Great Methodist Church.
Lo not fail to hear her. She speaks with authority concerning
the work of the Woman’s Home Missionary Society among the

High Ideals Needed
So long as the daily press delights in bringing forcibly to public notice the undesirable happenings in which Negroes are concerned, the race will carry the double burden. Yet on the other hand, since the daily press is largely given over to the record of crime, it is no wonder we come in for our full share of exploitation when we do wrong.
A duty rests heavily upon the thinking members of the Negro race. It is to set before our young men and women proper ideals. Never do we see the roystering, careless, ill-mannered young Negroes but we feel that they are victims of bad ideals. Lacking the good qualities which will attract attention, they seek to be in the public eye anyway and have recourse in the conduct that characterizes the worse elements of mankind. It is all too easy to see graduates of the public schools and colleges vieing with gutter snipes in ribald language and offensive conduct. Girls whose parentage gives hope of better, think it "smart" to do things that are forbidden. Worst of all, the poor blind children of folly think they are really satisfying a natural craving for amusement when they stoop to debauchery of their better natures.
Play is a good thing, music and song have their proper places, but when proper pleasures are perverted, the wrong doing cannot be gloosed over by being named "a good time."
Society For Historical Research. The first Labor day reception of the Negro Society For Historical Research was held on Monday, Sept. 4, at the headquarters of the organization in Yonkers, N. Y. It was largely attended by the members and their invited guests. The society is meeting with much success in its work of gathering important historical data relating to the achievements of the race. Books, manuscripts and memorials which have scarcely been heard of have been found and will be placed where the public may have the benefit of the information which they contain.

The funeral of J. W. Bush occurred from Shorter church Sunday afternoon, with the Odd Fellows of Arapahoe lodge and the Knights of Pythias of Pythias lodge in charge. The gathering of friends was largest. Rev. Ward spoke feelingly of the high character and the sterling worth of the deceased, commenting most touchingly upon the falling health which compelled him to give up the Christian ministry. The sympathy of many was evident toward the widow and the son. The interment was at Riverside, the Knights performing their rites at the grave, the Odd Fellows having theirs at the church. The floral offerings were profuse. The Douglass undertakers were in charge of the cortge.
The Rocky Mountain Athletic association is making alterations so that it can accommodate two more pool tables.

IN MEMORIAM.
In loving renmiembrance of my dear
mother\and grandmother, Mrs. Julia
Scott, who departed this life just one
year ago, Sept. 25, 1910:
Although she is absent from us
And one long, weary year has fied
Since we stood by her side in sorrow
And knew our darling was dead,
We love her today, yes we love her
Just as well as. we did years ago.
And we miss her, ah, sadly, we miss
her
And our hearts are still aching so.
But one thought comes to us in our
sorrow,
She ts free from all sickness and
, pain
And we trust when our journey is
ended
We will all meet our loved one
again. .

Interesting Account ef How Captain
N. Clark Smith Has Developed the
Musical Side of Student” Life at
‘Tuskegee Institute—Personnel of the
Organization and its Achievements.
Tuskegee, Ala—The Tuskegee Instl-
tute band, under the leadership of
Captain N. Clark Smith, is doing splen-
did work in developing the musical
tastes of the people, showing in a new
way the possibilities of the race in
anusical accomplishments. At first
thought one thinks of this organization
as.one of the sume type as other musi-
cal clubs that bave sprung up ip
schools and culleges in the last twenty-
five years.
But. interesting as their work may
be, the_persounel of these students is
even more so. The band is composed
of Gfty boys. representing the three
great centers of Negro population.
Africa, West Indies and a majority of
the states of the Union, several com-
ing from Porto Rico. They represent
at the same time seventeen different
trades. Seven of them are carpenters.
seven are farmers. there are two har-
ness makers, three printers. three elec-
tricians, one bookkeeper, three stioe-
makers. four plumbers. two brick
masons, two tinners, five tailors, one
baker, two janitors, four architects.
two dairymen, one butcher and one
engineer.
Nearly every one of these students
was taken by Captain Smith ~in the
raw” without any skill whatever and
drilled up to bis present efficiency.
Some of them had never even seen or
heard of their instruments before. and
one only needs to hear them play to
appreciate what Captain Smith has
achieved. a tribute to his skill and pe
tence and the boys" earnestness.
Jn sbort. the plain story fs that Cap-
tain Smith took the present group in
the raw state two years ago. some of
them even later. when they could play
nothing. and has brought them to the
point where they play even the old
masters in highly creditable style.
That so much has been done in so
short a time is accounted for only by
the fact that the boys are willing to
work and do work.
‘On Sunday there ts an extra demand
for music... Drill-and inspection are
held as usual. At 11 o'clock an or-
chestra composed of twenty-five mem-
bers of the band supports the hymns
at morning services. in the afternoon
at 4 the band gives a concert to stu-
a
ind
dents and visitors, and the day 1s
closed with an elaborate musical serv-
fee.
However, the visitor to Tuskegee 1s
not long in discovering that all of this
serves @ very useful purpose in the in-
stitution quite beyond the Limits of
diversion and entertainment. Krom
the beginning Dr. Booker T. Washing-
ton with rare discernment has made
the racial love for music serve the
purposes of discipline. With char-
acteristic wisdom he eces harmony in
music, sees cheerfulness. sees re-
straint and lofty aspiration and
strong endeavor. Let the students
sing. let them bave music wherever
possible, and we will not beet over

THANK YOU
While The Statesman put no stress whatever upon its part in setting on foot the entertainment which was given to benefit the Harris appeal funds, yet it feels that the work done by many persons for its success should not go unnoticed, and it gladly takes opportunity to thank them one and all.
The accusation is so often made that Negroes have no cohesiveness, that they lack pride of race and self respect, that many unthinking persons assume that it is so because it is charged. The observation which we have in this Harris case convinces us that much can be done for the building up of a working race unity if only proper methods are used. From different parts of the state money contributions are coming in and persons are volunteering for work, all imbued with the desire to show their loyalty to race. The instances of indifference or of fear of what the white people may think, are so few as to be negligible.
The entertainment took place on Thursday of last week, a day on which rain began before the close of day and continued far up into the night, yet such was the interest taken that more than 200 persons were out and tickets were sold sufficient to make a clear profit of about $75.00. We had hoped to make an accurate report this week, but returns come in slowly and irregularly so that is impossible just yet.
We especially wish to thank for their services at the entertainment T. S. Rector, Daniel Walker, Mesdames Walker and Dishman, Frank Gaines, Victor Walker, Officers W. J. Baker and Jesse Smith. These all in some way contributed to the successful outcome and we would say much of them did not space forbid. When we turn from them to the ticket sellers, our list grows and we find words inadequate to thank them all sufficiently. Mrs. Jas, Abernathy and the ladies of the Self-improvement Club sold a grand total of $85 worth of tickets. Other ticket sellers who deserve abundant praise are John Watkins, Daniel Walker, Dr. S. A. Huff, Hewittson Watson, R. B. Bolden, O. C. Goens, the Capitol Club, the Railroad Men's Club, Daniel Reese, W. J. Baker, T. R. Herron, Building Laborer's Club, Bon Ton pool hall, Byron cafe, Jas Cartwright, C. E. Langston. There are several others who are to report and will be mentioned in a supplimentary report. Contributions have been received from the waiters at the Stanley hotel at Eates Park as noted last week, from Mrs. Clay of Fort Collins and from S. J. Johnson.
We have already turned over to Dr. Jones $50 to be applied on the appeal and will give him a second sum in next week.
In the meanwhile persons who have tickets unreported will favor us by reporting at once.
Our thanks also go out to the ladies of Capuola Temple who postponed to Oct. 5th their ball which was to have taken place on the same date.

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, Berking.
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 treatment 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,
Albertha Brediller Edmunds,
3532 N. Smedley St.
Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 2nd, 1911.
Dear Madam Perkins:
You will find enclosed $5.00 for which please send me another six months' supply of your scalp treatment. 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,
1511 Ellsworth Street.
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.

PRYOR'S DOPE ON SPORTS AND STAGE
SHELTON BROOKS.
The one-time great comedian and a big favorite around Chicago and other eastern cities, has gone into the cafe business. It is reported that he has opened the swellest colored restaurant in the country at 2940 State street, Chicago, the El Plasso cafe. It is rumored the cause of Mr. Brooks going into the cafe business was because he had been refused the small salary of $500 per week for his act and he got mad and went into business. Well, he is to be wished all the luck and success in the world, as he is a man who wants what he wants, and will come very near getting it.
CHARLIE WALLAN. THE BOXER.
The supposed-to-be champion 148-pound man of the western states has failed to reply to the challenge issued to him by Battling Thompson of this city and I am afraid that there might be a little streak in Charlie.
THE GREAT TEMPLE THEATRE.
It has been rumored that several well known business men of New Orleans have formed a big syndicate and have leased the Pythian Temple, where they are contemplating one of the swellest colored play houses in the world. The building alone cost $200,000 and there is no doubt but that this is one of the biggest deals ever pulled off by a body of Negroes. They will make the house a first class vaudeville theatre, playing Negro artists exclusively.
PROF. C. M. DAVIS.
The great Negro leader of the now famous Mayeppa band, Prof. C. M. Davis, is stopping in Chicago for a few days. The professor has engaged the services of Prof. J. C. Singleton of Chicago and Mr. Murray Mead with his enterprise to finish the season, which up to the present time has been very successful.
EDDIE TOLLIVER, THE SINGER.
The well known tenor of New York, Mr. Eddie Tolliver, has joined the Southern Smart Set company and is scoring a big hit singing all of the latest classical songs of today.
BILLY SWEAT, THE COMEDIAN.
Supposed to be one of the best Negro comedians in the business, Mr. Hilly Sweat has returned to the little Monogram theatre of Chicago, where he is putting on everything but quit and his wife is not to be left out, as she is a dainty little song bird and also somewhat of a dancer.
THE EVA COMEDY FOUR.
One of the leading comedy quartets of the East, the Eva Four, have just closed their summer engagements and are now being booked on the Shea circuit for an indefinite time.
CENTRAL THEATRE, ATLANTA, GA.
Mr. J. H. Campbell, the manager of the Central theatre, Atlanta, Ga., is still producing the goods in the way of comedy and drama. His stock company consists of the following members: Morrall Ringgold, Miss Price, Iva Hubbard, Clayton Jones, Tom Young, Laura Moss, Tim Scott and J. H. Campbell. The company has been at the Central for three weeks and are good for three months.
THORNTON & LANG.
The team of Thornton and Lang, after their three weeks successful work at the Dixie theatre, Tampa, Kla., have gone to the Dixie theatre, at Charlotte, N. C., where they are booked for three weeks more. The act is a novelty and the work fast and clever, which makes the team a winner.
PUGH & PUGH.
The clever team of Pugh & Pugh are now playing at the Globe theatre, Jacksonville, Fla. Mrs. Pugh is storming the house with her late song "Texas Tommy," one of the compositions of E. B. Dudly, and old man Pugh is still one of the ringleaders in the art of fancy buck dancing, and on the whole the team is one to be highly praised at all times, as they are capable of entertaining in many different lines.
PEAT & HAYE8.
The team of Peat and Hayes, who played at the Lincoln theatre, New York City, last week, made such a hit that the moving pictures were cut out entirely, as they proved to be just what the doctor ordered. This week they are meeting with great success in Philadelphia.
OLD PEKIN THEATRE, CHICAGO
At last the first colored play house of the country has been opened, after a long close of three months. And it was opened by one of Chicago's old business men, Mr. Terry M. Jones, well known all over the country. The Pekin was the first colored theatre ever opened, owned and operated by a colored man, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Jones will forever keep the house well in front of the gay public.
The company of George Williams' Georgia Minstrels, that has been playing all over the state of Colorado,
met with ill luck a few days ago in Greeley where they were playing. it is reported that the whole company was jailed on account of the manager trying to enlist the services of a white girl of that city.
KID TEDDY WILLIAMS.
The fast and clever Negro boxer of Kansas City, Kid Williams, is trying for a match with some of the boys in Denver. He fights at 145 pounds and is willing to meet any man in the state for a side bet of $500. He refers to Roy Kid Brown and Battling Thompson, and can be located at 1707 Tracy, Kansas City, Mo.
THE PRYOR ENTERTAINERS.
The Rocky Mountain's five entertainers, Tom Berry, King Rastus, J. P. Tumlin, George Elkins and Manager Pryor. Just closed a successful week in Greeley, where they were in attendance to the Weld County Fair.
The company consisted of clever dancers, singers, comedians and all-around entertainers.
THE BIG ROCKY MOUNTAIN ATH
LETIC CLUB
On account of the large increase of business the management of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Club are having the building enlarged and when completed will be the largest colored club in the world. The membership has already increased to as many as 1,400 members and there is only one thing in sight and that is a long life for the Big Rocky and President Victor Walker and Manager Eddie Page say, "Boys you are welcome at all times."

FOURTEEN CLERKS IN DENVER
POSTOFFICE.
It is a matter worth attention that there are fourteen colored clerks employed by the Denver postoffice. Of these, twelve are regular and two still substitutes, Chas. Gaskikns and VanNess Johnson. One, Walter Chapman, still remains assistant superintendent of the Highlands station despite changes made in the office. The appointment of the two substitutes recently is the best answer to the rumor that was abroad that no more appointments of colored clerks would be made because of the large number already employed.
Slavery Was Foredoomed
Continued from first page ever, were not realized. And at this moment I venture to affirm that a bill for Negro emancipation would meet with a prompt and indignant condemnation. I repeat that interest, pecuniary interest, will forever prevent the emancipation of the slave of the South. I do not say the slave ought not to be emancipated—I say he will not be emancipated."
"And I," said Mr. Leland, "say he ought not to be emancipated. I do not predicate my opinion on the anatomical discoveries of Dr. Mitchell, but I think the Negroes are the children of Ham and, according to the Bible, they are doomed to be the servant of servants. Besides, I am convinced from my own observation, and I have had a pretty good opportunity to observe, for I was two years a missionary in the slave-holding states for a Massachusetts Baptist association, that the blacks are altogether inferior to the whites. They are, I assure you, low minded and beastly in their propensities. They desire nothing but to eat, drink, fiddle, laugh, sleep and dance. For my part I regard them as a mongrel species, half man and half ape."
While Mr. Leland was making these remarks, I could not avoid the reflection that in this instance, as in many others, the visionary though learned philosopher and the fanatical zealat arrived by an entirely different process of mental action to the same conclusion. Extremes frequently approach near each other. I was roused from the reverie occasioned by this train of thought by Mr. Jefferson saying to Mr. Leland:
at this moment to prove to you and "I am happy to have it in my power Dr. Mitchell by ocular demonstration that the experience of one of you and the theory of the other has led you to erroneous conclusions. Look at the young gentleman who sits opposite to you. In the meantime," continued he, "Mr. Melbourne, allow me the pleasure of drinking a glass of wine with you.
Mr. Melbourne," added Mr. Jefferson, "was born a slave and is of African descent, though he has considerable Saxon blood in his veins. He was enfranchised by a plous and benevolent lady and is now a man of wealth. He has by his own efforts and industry cultivated and well improved his mind—a mind which, I religiously believe, your missionary observations, friend Leland, and Dr. Mitchell's dissections to the contrary hitwithstanding, is of the first order of intellects."
I was much embarrassed at this compliment from so great a man as Mr. Jefferson and I presume I appeared quite awkward. The whole company gazed on me with astonishment, the piercing eye of the chief justice in particular, I perceived; was fixed most intently upon me.
Mr. Jefferson then related some part of my history (for I had previously told him my story) and he am imadverted with great severity on the treatment I had received at Natchez and upon the laws which legalized that treatment. While he was talking I perceived Mr. Wirt's countenance several times redden with apparent indignation.
It was now late and I took my leave; but as I was retiring Mr. Wirt followed me into the hall and, taking me by the hand expressed a desire to continue his acquaintance with me. "I am mortified and ashamed," said he, "that this glorious country sustains such laws as those under which you have suffered."
The next morning I proceeded on my journey northward.
FORCED TO LEAVE HOME.
Every year a large number of poor sufferers, whose lungs are sore and racked with coughs, are urged to go to another climate. But this is costly and not always sure. There's a better way. Let Dr. King's New Discovery cure you at home. "It cured me of lung trouble," writes W. R. Nelson of Calamine, Ark. "when all else failed, and I gained 47 pounds in weight. It's surely the king of all cough and lung cures." Thousands owe their lives and health to it. It's positively guaranteed for coughs, colds, la gripe, asthma, croup-all throat and lung troubles. 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free at all drugstores.

INFLUENCE OF MISSIONS FELT.
What Colored American Missionaries Are Doing For The Heathen In Africa—Striking Results In Rhodesia. Two Religious Denominations—Chief Factors in Work of Redemption
By JOHN E. BRUCE (GRITT).
The influence and work of missionaries sent to various sections of Africa by the Baptist and African Methodist Episcopal church in the United States are being effectively felt for good in the uplift and well being of the heathen. In East, West and South Africa these self-sacrificing American Christian workers are causing the gospel of Jesus Christ to be heard and felt in a manner never before known. No wonder that the Rev. Dr. L. G. Jordan, secretary of the national Baptist foreign mission board, never tires in his work of raising means for the support of the missionaries sent out by the national Baptist convention. Dr. Jordan is a true and tried discipline of the church of Christ who has labored long and faithfully for the cause of foreign missions. The following story is one great and lasting result of true missionary effort:
A visitor to the famous native kingdom of Barotseland would see a remarkable change in an African country which Livingstone, Serpa Pinto and others described in its barbarous stage. This large region is over 200 miles northwest of the great Victoria falls. Fifteen years ago its king, Lewanda, had absolute power over the lives and belongings of its inhabitants, but the drunken and tyrannous despot, reclaimed, is today a leading factor in
BUROLOONG CHIEFS OF SOUTH AFRICA
the development of good government,
industry and well being among his
people.
When he told his subjects he would never drink another drop of intoxicating liquor he forthwith became a model of sobriety and a pattern for his people, and his name stuck in the memory of many Englishmen when he asked that carpenters and farmers be sent to teach his subjects how to build better houses and raise larger crops. Today his country, a part of northwest Rhodesia, by the choice of its king, is divided into districts whose public affairs are directed by white officials, though Lewanika still retains civil jurisdiction over the land. White colonists are everywhere admitted except to the valley in which the king's capital stands. The postoffices are handling about 300,000 letters a year, and the telegraph connects many parts of the country.
The horrors of slave raiding have disappeared, and even the domestic serfs have been freed. Each house pays a tax of $3 a year, and most of the funds are expended for roads, bridges and other public improvements. Here are some of the men who have aided in the splendid reformatory and remedial work which the king is carrying on: Sitting, from right to left. Molenjo, Lekoko, Baderle; standing, left to right. F. Z. A. Peregrino, editor of the South African Spectator and representative of the king in Cape Town, interpreter. These are very ordinary looking black men, but I am told by Mr. Peregrino that they deceive their looks and that they are well informed as to what is going on in the world. Africa is coming slowly, but surely. Ethiopia is making ready to stretch out her hands unto God.
