The Negroes of Colorado Should Appeal the Harris Case Twenty-Third Year THE FIRST MISSION This is a Time of Missionary Wo dist Episcopal THE FIRST MISSIONARY A NEGRO This is a Time of Large Interest in Missionary Work at Scott Methodist Episcopal Church. Minister Plans to Honor Memory of John Stewart. LIVED IN PERILOUS TIMES. First Missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church Came Up Through Many Difficulties—Had Thrilling Experience With Indians—Jonathan Pointer as Interpreter. The activity of the Methodist Episcopal Church so well known in the city of Denver as in other communities. It will therefore be news to many persons that Bessie M. Garrison, whose coming to speak at Scott church was announced last week, is a general officer of that denomination, specially assigned to the work of the home missions and church extensions. There are several general officers of the Nogro race in that church, such as Dr. Bowen, Dr. Mason, I. Garland Penn and I. L. Thomas, but a woman so high is a novelty for any denomination. Miss Garrison is a graduate of the Clark University of Atlanta, a full-blooded Negro, one of the finest representatives her sex or her race has in church work. The large audience that heard her Sunday night, at the invitation of Mrs. Dawson and Mrs. Evans as officers and all the members of the local missionary society, were entertained and enlightened with a presentation of the gospel of unselfishness delivered as only a good woman, called to such a work, can deliver it. She set forth at length the missionary and evangelical work that has been done in the race through the effort and by aid of the money of whites, and then made an appeal for the race itself to realize its own need of uplift. She appealed for it to be willing to pay the cost of its own uplift. The response was most gratifying, one of the largest collections being given that the church has ever given under similar circumstances. THE HISTORY OF THE CHURCH THE CHURCH SCOTT METHODIST CHURCH Important as was this event, it is of a class with the celebration known as the John Stewart celebration. Many years ago, now nearly a century, John Stewart, a Negro, was converted in the Methodist Episcopal church. He felt the missionary spirit and went forth to preach the gospel in fields then untouched. He went among the Wyandotte Indians in Ohio, waded streams, camped in the woods at night, endured hun- ger and finally lost his health in an endeavor to save others. From this beginning made by a black man has sprung the whole missionary work of this great denomination, both at home and beyond the seas. Millions of dollars have been spent and lives worn out in dark and dangerous places all from this beginning. Of late years the church, and especially the colored membership, has made much of the celebration of this day and for this celebration Scott church will throw open its doors on Sunday, the 15th. The hope is expressed to raise enough money throughout this conference to establish a fund from which churches can be built each year, each one a lotte memorial of the simple Christ dawn of the nation's history. The details of the proposed celebration are in the hands of Rev. Dr. I. L. Thomas, the eloquent and efficient field secretary of the board of home missions and church extension of the Methodist Episcopal church. Dr. Thomas conceived the idea, which is being backed by the leading spirits in the denomination. "John Stewart," says Dr. Thomas, "was one of those early characters of the race whose achievements should be held in grateful memory. He was born in Powhatan county, Va., in the latter part of the eighteenth century. He was very energetic and of a studious disposition. He had strong religious convictions and joined the Methodist church at an early age. Being satisfied that he had been called to the missionary work, he went to Ohio, where he at first labored among a few white people. He next went to the Wyandotte Indians, where he labored successful against superstitions and other difficulties. The interpreter of this tribe was a colored man, Jonathan Pointer, who had adopted all of the customs of the tribe. "Pointer tried to discourage him, reciting the difficulties that Roman Catholics had encountered with the tribe. Mr. Stewart secured his permission, however, to attend a religious feast and dance. In the middle of the feast he was allowed to speak to the Indians F about the blessings of Christianity. Pointer acting as the interpreter. At the conclusion of his exhortation Chief Bloody Shirt instructed his men to shake hands with the missionary. "Stewart persevered, though often discouraged, and eventually succeeded in getting Pointer to accept Christianity. Many conversions followed, especially in 1817, when he made a most energetic campaign. He was shortly afte- M. B. REV. DR. L. L. THOMAS erward ordained as a local preacher. He passed away in 1823, a victim of consumption. "The work started by this pioneer missionary caused some enthusiastic borders to organize the first mission ary society of the denomination in 1810, and the 12,000 missionaries now working in every part of the globe may be said to have got their first inspiration from this humble man of God." Dr. Thomas hopes to make the celebration country wide and will gladly receive any suggestions as to how it should be done at his home. 2111 Drud Hill avenue, Baltimore. CAPABLE MAN ON THE JOB. Brooklyn Branch Y. M. C. A. Secures Services of Rufus M. Moraney Services of Rufus M. Meroney. The Carlton avenue branch of the Young Men's Christian association in Brooklyn has been fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Rufus M. Meroney of Austin, Tex., as secretary. Mr. Meroney comes well recommended by the president of the central branch, the general secretary and international secretary. W. A. Hunton. The new secretary is a graduate of Yale university and has had several years' experience as a schoolteacher, as well as having had two years' experience as an instructor and head of the boys' department of Samuel Houston college, Austin, Tex. Professor Meroney got his first experience in Y. M. C. A. work at the maneuver camps at San Antonio, Tex., with the Ninth cavalry. His work there was of such a nature as to attract the attention of the secretary of the army branch of the Y. M. C. A. and he immediately forwarded Professor Meroney's name to the headquarters for secretaries, advising that department to consider Mr. Meroney's name for the first opening in any branch of the association. Professor Meroney succeeds Mr. Robert Pearson Hamlin, who resigned the secretaryship of the Carlton avenue branch on June 1 to enter the international work of the association. During the recent secretarial institute held at Arundel-on-the-Bay, Md., Mr. Hamlin was secretary of the faculty. Mr. Arthur L. Comither, who so ably filled the position as acting secretary of the branch from June to September, will be retained as assistant secretary to Mr. Meroney, who has already begun his duties at the Carlton avenue branch in Brooklyn under favorable circumstances.

The question of his race held the matter up for a while, during which it was fully discussed, and now the doctor is informed that he is accepted unanimously, a step which cannot but be gratifying. So far as we know, this is the only member we have in the Chamber of Commerce, and the second in the history of Denver. Attorney A. W.

Owing to the engagement of the hall used by the dancing academy by some other party several weeks ago, it was not possible for the school to run Thursday of last week, but next Thursday and from that time on the school will run steadily. Next Thursday there will be a lot of the latest music and instruction in the latest dances. The management will make sure that everything is the best, so that night will be the real opening of the winter's dancing. AUDIENCE WITH THE PRESIDENT While the hosts of Republicanism were assembled in the Brown hotel Tuesday afternoon to greet the president, colored voters were represented by J. W. Jackson, who for many years has taken a prominent part in the politics of the state. The coronary of the chief executive of the nation was most marked in his treatment of Mr. Jackson and he was accorded what few received—a special audience. Mr. Jackson was fortunate in being introduced to the president by Major Brooks of Washington, who is accompanying the presidential party. Major Brooks holds one of the very good places which represent Negroes, being custodian of the White clouse. In addition, he is major of the battalion of colored militia in the district of Columbia and teacher of military tactics of all the colored Washington. While here Mr. Jackson showed him the courtesy of the city a in automobile. Major Brooks and air. Jackson were callers at the Statesman office Tuesday. WAITERS STRUCK The shortcomings of the white waiters of Denver will sooner or later force the caterers of the city to compare them unfavorably with the colored. It is a well substantiated report that Tuesday evening at the banquet tendered the president by the Denver Chamber of Commerce, the white waiters who were hired by the Anany Catering company to the number of 50, took occasion to walk out over some difficulty. A hasty sourry supplying their places. No consideration of the humiliation Denver would have suffered because they took such an occasion to strike welled anything with them. They will sooner or later yield such business to the colored waiters if only the colored men will show themselves efficient and reliable. --- ```markdown ``` LOOK! SOMETHING ENTIRELY NEW ;LOOK!

Washington Principal Tuskegee Institute - Tuskegee, Alabama The enrollment at Tuskegee Insti- tute for the school year just closed was 1,702. Of this number 1,114 were young men, 221 of whom took agri- culture as a trade. The advantages offered by the Agri- cultural Department of Tuskegee In- stitute are exceptional. The teaching is excellent, the latest improved im- plements are used and the very best breeds of live stock are maintained. The following industries are of- fered: Farming, truck gardening, fruit growing, care and management of mules and horses, dairy husban- ary, dairying, poultry raising, swine raising, beef production and slaugh- tering, canning and veterinary aci- ence. 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 un- er cultivation. In the farming divi- sion it is the plan to raise all food- stuffs as nearly as possible for the 1,200 head of live stock owned by the school The young men in this divi- sion get a splendid opportunity in general farming and in the use of im. proved 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, plums, pears and figs are grown in the fruit growing division. Eighty acres are devoted to this kind of work. The division of care and manage. ment of horses and mules, has 172 heaq 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 con. tains a herd of 212 head of cattle which supply milk to the dairy, which 1s made into butter and cheese ot 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 edu cation at Tuskegee Institute at little expense to himself, | -0r information as to courses o! study, expenses, etc., letters should be addressed to PERSONAL MENTION NOTES OF THE ZION BAPricT |Man and Raligion Forward Movemant, The pastor returned from hig trip to the National Convention last week and was met last Sunday morning by a large and responsive congregation. ‘The discourse seemed to have deeply impressed the multitude and two were added to the church, The trip to the Hast included most of the eastern cities, where some oi the leading churches were visited. It is with humble thanksgiving that we can compare the work which the Jars- est churches are doing with | ours, much to the credit of Zion. Reports of the success which is attending Zion seemed to cause the eastern brethren to stand in awe. This should make us more thought- ful, more humble and more diligent in the service we are trying to render in this part of the vineyard, ‘Tomorrow morning the pastor will preach from the text: “But Peter Followed Him afar off,” Matt. 26:58. This text will be discussed mainly for the benefit of those who do not feel that the claims of Christianity to any great extent binds them to active Christian service and who apparently have taken a middle ground between the teachings of Christ and the world. It is hoped that the faithful as weil as the unfaithful will be present. Tomorrow closes the rally which we are confident will reach $2,000.00. Con sidering all things, this is a most max- nifiaent total and puts Zion in a class by itself, No more loyal people were ever known and their faithful- ness is being largely blessed of God. As was said of old, “Come with os and we will do thee good.” The reorganization of the men’s Bi- ble class will be effected next week. Plans are laid for even a more en thusiastic and successful class than last year. The purpose of this body of men is to study the word of God and its relation to modern life and conduct. We are coming back to the conviction that, after all, the gonly successful life and the only one worth while is that life built upon the truth of the eternal. We expect to have a hundred men enrolled this year, Ev- ery man is welcome. Already we are beginning to xet ready to celebrate the forty-sixth an- niversary of the founding of . Zion, which will fall due about the week of Thanksgiving. We plan to make this really a season of rejoicing. God has constantly remembered us in His wonderful mercy; He expects us to show to the world our gratitude. Full arrangements and program will be an- ouneed shortly, % | During this week of thanksgiving there will terminate the greatest doil contest ever held in the West. We re- turned from the national convention with the largest and most handsome doll ever turned out by the National Negro Doll Company. It is a master- piece of the doll maker's art, stands nearly three feet high and, dressed, is worth more than $35.00. This doll is on contest, not merely for the pur- pose of raising money, but to teach and emphasize the fact that Negro dolls are the most beautiful dolls on the market and that when a Negro parent buys a Negro doll for his baby he is putting into that child’h heart an ideal which will ultimately mean the salvation of his race. A number of young ladies are Iin- ing up for the contest, which is free, and the one reporting the largest amount of money above a certain sum will receive the prize. A second prize will also be given, which is a doll measuring 24 inches, These dolls will be on exhibition at the different stores and public places in the city. Our sick includes Sister Ethel Iay- ton, who suffered a very serious oper- ation at St. Anthony's hospital fast Saturday; Sister Clira Monroe, Sis- ter Amanda King and Brother Max Andrews. Do not forget these dear ones in prayer. Sunday night we will have reports from the national convention by Sis: ters T. D, Perkins and Lillie Smith. The entire evening service will be taken up with these reports, which all who are interested in the work of the Baptists should hear. ‘The pastor will preach a series of sermons on Sunday evenings, Octobat 15th, 22nd and 29th. ‘The general sub- ject is, “Lessons from the Temptation, of Jesus.” We believe these sermons will prove helpful to every one who feels that Christianity is a serious oD- ligation and who desires greater light in order to make it a success. The public is cordially invited. The ladies of the Church of the Redeemer will give a Hallowe'en par- ty Tuesday evening, Oct. 31st, at Dania hall. There will be a “sheet and pillow case” masque and the ons who has the best will receive a prize. Also a prize will be given to the per son selling the highest number! of tickets. Admission 25c.

The suit TEETH. entered for $100,000 against the Pull- The old fable of the man _ wh sowed dragon's teeth which sprang up in armed men is being reproducec in the life of the American people In a press dispatch which relates the outlawry of a couple of brothers ir a southern state, there appears thc statement that mobs have killed then father and the son of one of the men. ‘That such blood lust is possible where Negroes are the victims, inevitably meané that it is probable where Ne groes are not concerned. ho one can read the record of lynch law in this country in’ the past 30 years, without knowing that such law- lessness would make its impress on American character. Wrong doing against the weak begets weakness in the doer. Murder, under the guise of punishing by mob law, is the destroy- er of respect for human life. Lynch law originally practiced against Ne- groes has its legitimate progeny in the holocaust of blood that day by day profanes our nation. Father, mother, wife, husband, friend, and even the inoffensive stranger, none are safe. Even with all te technical administration of the law that lets many guilty persons escape, the hand- writing on the wall still proclaims America counted and found wanting. Our great material wealth, our gen- ius for business and for government can scarcely outweigh our disregard for right. The crumbling of the foundations presages the fall of the whole building. America, originally the home of the oppressed, the land of liberty, possesses no immunity from the effects of wrong doing any more than the rest of humanity. It must pay its debt of blood with blood. For every worm it has crushed be neath its fron heel, it must offer up the life of its choicest. The savage, brutal, primevael instincts it has nur- tured will be garnered in a bountiful harvest from the dragon’s teeth. ‘The black boy burned at Limon 12 years ago may have deserved some punishment. But there can be no doubt that the disregard shown for his life, the inhuman cruelty with which he was put to death, still ex- ist; they still goad the people of Colo- rado on to bloody deeds until not a day passes without them. Worst of all, public conscience is dead! We are not ashamed that it is so! ‘The poor Negro may humbly thank God that, ignorant though he has been, possibly at some times crim- inal, yet he has not suffered one of us to be unjustly treated without a terrible visitation upon the oppressor. Slater Normal and Industrial School. ‘The Slater Normal and Industria schoo! in Winston-Salem, N. C., opened for the enrollment of students on Fri day, Sept. 29.

Kennedy is the prin- cipal. 1 Home and Foreign Mission Convention. ‘The woman's home and foreign mia sion convention, which began its ses- sions in Raleigh. N. C., on ‘Thursday, Oct. 5. to last for four days, bas so far shown good results. The reports of the various committees were highly en- couraging. Interest was about equally divided between the home and foreign fields. CITY NEWS. The Taka Art club has as its new officers Mrs. Gertie Ross, president; Mrs. &.orence Cooper, vice president; Mrs. L. Ford, secretary; Mrs. Effie Waldon, treasurer; Mrs. O. C. Goens, critic, Mr. Gilbert Bruce is spending his vacation in Cheyenne. In the response to the governor ‘i Colorado to the National Negro Edn- cational Congress, held in Denver August 14, 1911, the writer said in Part as follows: “It is not social equality that we seek; we abhor the mere expression of social equality as the average white man sees it. We ask no special 2a- vors, but we do ask a square deal to make opportunities to be men.” Now, the September ‘Crisis” refers to this us a speech made by a colored physician of Kansas oe in which he Protests that he does not want social equality, Then your excellent journal cites its readers to its comment in the March issue upon tais “same col- ored physician's” protest against be- ing ejected:from e Pullman car, and goes on to prove that his Denver speech is mot consistent with the stand he took in the case. The suit entered for $100,000 against the Pull man and M. K. & T. Railway com panies for violence to one’s person and its consequent humiiiation and against the rights of an American cit- izen, would be classed by the world at large as a suit for civil rights, not as the sociologist puts it, in the “so- cial equality” list. Let us for a minute take another statement of the Crisis as follows: “Now, riding on a Pullman car is s0o- cial equality and there is no use pre- tending that it is not.” if some one had told me this was a statement com- ing from the editorial columns of the Crisis, I could not have believed it. The expression is so absolutely ab- surd and ssows utter lack of the ed- itor’s ability to discriminate between personal comforts and his phantom— “social equality.” The expression is petty and shows no eternal fitness of things. A Pullman car is a luxury, a com- modity for which one pays a fee .o rest, to sleep, to be comfortable, and tne question of social equality is not a consideration and must not be con- fused with necessary comforts. Take my own case. I received an urgent call to go to a Southern city ast week on professional business. I had been up two consecutive nights. The teie- gram says, Come at once.” The dis- tance is 300 miles. The next day is to be a strenuous one. The life of an individual is to be under my im- mediate care. My nerves must be steady; my senses clear. The coach is a straight back, dingy affair adjoin- ing the baggage car. The Pullman is one of the above comforts for which I can pay and which is necessary for the preservation of my own body and maybe the life of an individual. We haye a teacher here in one of our schools who brought his wife, who was ill, from Georgia in a Pullman car. Tell me, is this your idea of s0- cial equality? It has not been so un- derstood by the American people and never will be. In last week’s paper we see where ‘one of the Gould brothers is threat- ening the interestg of another brother because his actress wife is not re- ceived on a basis of social equality in the family. There was a multi-millionaire in Colorado Springs who made his mon- ey by sudden speculations and sought membership in an aristocratic club made up of English gentlemen. He was refused because he was an ex- serf. These two cases | cite as typical examples in the clamor for social equality. Another statement: ‘Equal civil rights are impossible without social equality and equa political rights are impossible without social equality.” Now, civil and political rights are governed by laws made through acts of legislation; so regulated and 60 enjoyed by all alike. Social equality is a mutual agree- ment between individuals by sign or toxen or facial expressions, which legislation cannot regulate and which all cannot enjoy alike. The fact that the “Southern white papers” accused the American ‘Ne- groes in London of “demanding social equality” does not make it so, for they too, like others I know, are con- stantly chasing this same phantom, and when they find this nameless something, for peace o: mind and 2 better name, they style it “social equality.” There has never been a word of human tongue that has been made tv cloak so i.any things. The Crisis says: “Social equality is simply the right to be treated as a gentleman when one s among gentlemen.” Maj; 1 ask of those men that come intc the office o: the Crisis, how many men that are not gentlemen are treat ed as such? Are all men the socia equal of each other when they “ac! like gentlemen”?

Our readers are kindly urged not to forget the musical recital by Mme. Brown of Chicago on the 16th. Her past reputation in the city should not be forgotten.

Garrison measured up to all expectations in her magnificent address last Sunday evening to a very appreciative and representative audience. Miss Garrison represents the work of the Woman's Home Missionary Society among the 20 colored conferences in Methodism. A collection of $12.00 was given her for her work. She left this week for Colorado Springs, where she goes to address the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the Colorado Annual Conference. Sunday is to be a high day at Scotts. It will be the occasion of the second quarterly conference. The pastor and district superintendent will preach in the morning, the Rev. J. A. Thomas-Hazell, S. T. B., pastor of the People's Presbyterian church, will preach the communion sermon at 3 o'clock. The Rev. Dr. R. A. Randolph will deliver the message at night. You are invited to all of these services.

Evans, secretary; Miss Florstein Dooley, assistant secretary; Mrs. Ada Castry, treasurer. Plans will be discussed for the Thanksgiving dinner and bazaar at the next meeting. The choir is doing some very good work in building up the Sunday evening audiences. Compliments can be heard all around as to their sweet singing. A new choir stand will be built to accommodate the choir. Mesdames Hicks, Rice, Lyles, Lutrette and others are responsible for this splendid showing. Mrs. Lyles sang a solo last Sunday evening to the delight of the large audience. Two new teachers were appointed by Superintendent Fred Brown last Sunday. The Rev. C. W. Holmes, veteran of many a battle, will teach the Bible class, and Mrs. Anna B. Dawson will have charge of the infant class. We predict a live Sunday school. Mrs. Anna McPherson entertained the Woman's Home Missionary in an informal reception given in honor of Miss Bessie M. Garrison, A. B., last Sunday evening after the services at the parsonage. Mrs. McPherson knows how to do things in a first-class way. Programs are here from Philadelphia for the John Stewart celebration the third Sunday in this month. If you appreciate the efforts of distinguished colored men in the past, do not fall to be present on this grand occasion. The choir will sing special music. ```markdown ``` City News The Woman's Home Missionary Society elected the following officers to serve one year: Mrs. J. D.

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.

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.

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.

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. Mrs. Elliza Clifton, 931 French Street. PRYOR'S DOPE ON SPORTS AND STAGE KING & BAILY COMING HERE. The famous team and company of King & Bally, known throughout the country as the young Williams and Walker, will return to America after a most successful season abroad, playing before royalties and crowned heads. It is rumored that several big managers will meet them and try to make arrangements to pace them at the head of a fine big colored company. They are supposed to be home the first of November. Leon Pryor, the sporting editor, was called to Colorado Springs twice last week on very important business. STEWART & MARSHALL Those two comedians, Harrison Stewart and Mat Marshall, who played the Orpheum theatre of this city last year, are soon to be with us again at the same house, and they are a team that is not to be overlooked, as they are capable of entertaining the world. Will give date later. JOHN BUCKER COMING. The old time war horse that still keeps them all laughing when he says, good bye, Mr. notable John Rucker, will appear at the Pantages theatre in the near future in clever bits of comedy. This will be his farewell visit to Denver, so don't miss him. The shorter man invariably got the worst of it, and when the people stop to consider Jack in every way they will see how impossible it is for Langford to come near beating him. Langford, we will admit, is a clever and hard little man, but yet he is not the man for Jack Johnson. THE R. M. A. C. BASEBALL TEAM. The Rockies baseball team for the past year didn't play as good baseball as they did last year and I suppose it was due, for they didn't get the managing nor the practice that they should have had. Maybe better next year. SAM LANGFORD IS NOT FOR JACK JOHNSON. While many fight fans believe that Sam Langford is capable of taking Jack Johnson's measure, it should be remembered that every precedent in prize ring history is against Langford's chances with the big champion. Jack Johnson. Of course the ring is a place where the unexpected happens with unusual frequency, but a victory for Langford over Johnson would be a great surprise to close followers of the game. In every ring contest between two high class fighters, where one had any such advantage in height as Johnson has over Langford, AIDA WALKER A BIG HIT. The company that is being heralded as the Alda Overton Walker's Dancing Girls is meeting with much success down New York way. The company is a very strong cast, headed by Mrs. Walker and Ora Dunlap, and the critics say that the act is incomparable. LINCOLN THEATRE. The neat and popular play house of New York City for the colored is that of the Lincoln Theatre Co. They produce as good acts as the best houses in the city and there is always the S. R.O. sign hanging out. FOOTBALL. Well, it's whoop 'er up boys, if we are to see anything in the way of football before the closing day, which is near Thanksgiving. There are supposed to be several different aggregations all in training, but up to this time I have seen very little of their practice games and if they are going to play the game this year it is time that we were seeing something of their work. Come on boys, wake up, you're dreaming. DUDE KELLY & DAVIS. The clever team of Keeny & Davis, that played so many head lining bills last season in the states and Canada, write that they are going to come West this season with an act that is even stronger than the one they presented last year, coming to the Pantages in the near future. BLACK PATTI COMING. From all reports it is said that the Mme. Black Patti and company will be in Denver the first week of February, 1912, at the Tabor Grand theatre. Mme. Patti has one of the strongest colored shows on the road this season and much is to be expected, as it has been a long time since we have had the pleasure of witnessing a good colored show in Denver. BABY KEMP IN VAUDEVILLE. The classy colored comedian of fame, Mr. Bobby Kemp, will come out this season in vaudeville, playing all of the big eastern and western circuits, with the Denver Orpheum theatre on route, Mr. Kemp and trio, it is said, will produce a one-act sketch that can't be beat and it is supposed to be one of the highest-salaried Negro acts in the business. THE COLORED LEAGUE TEAMS. The famous colored ball teams of the East are all up in the air for the closing season's series to be played off, starting tomorrow in Chicago, St. Louis and Philadelphia. The star teams of the colored league for this year are the Leland Giants and the Chicago Giants. These teams will start the wheel to rolling tomorrow in Chicago at Leland park and there are at least 20,000 people expected to be in attendance. HUBBARD & DE N. The globe trotting team of young men, Society George Dean and Undertaker Louis Hubbard, left last night for all points east with a string of fast race horses. They will be gone for at least one year, even going abroad. Society and Louis are to be congratulated and they are to be wished all the success in the world, as they are home boys. JAMES KID STEWART One of the prominent young men of this city for the past year, Mr. James Stewart, the crack pool player, formerly of the Quaker city, Philadelphia, left last Tuesday night for Los Angeles, Cal., where he is contemplating opening up a business. Mr. Stewart was hailed as one of the classiest young men of the city, a jolly good fellow and a friend to all, and his presence will be greatly missed by all of his old time pals, and they all bid him a fond good bye. PROF. MIKE BUD THOMAS. Things are beginning to look awful bright for the pride of Denver in the art of wrestling, little Bud Thomas, the coming young Negro wrestler of the race, is soon to be taken up by some well-known white sporting men of this city. They are figuring on making Bud one of the best men in the business, and to all indications he will make good. H. W. CLAY MRS. A. W.

GROWDS AT CONVERTS' RALLY Summer Campaign of the New York Evangelistic Committee Closes With Great Meeting In Carnegie Hall. Itinerary of the Rev. Dr. C. Leroy Butler Ends Successfully. By CLEVELAND G. ALLEN. New York.—One of the most successful evangelists in the country and one who has attracted wide attention in New York as a preacher is the Rev. Dr. C. Leroy Butler, formerly pastor of the St. James Presbyterian church in this city. Dr. Butler has met with unusual success in this direction, and so powerful and convincing is he as an evangelist that he has been called the Chapman of the race and pronounced the most successful colored evangelist in the country. Dr. Butler, who is with the New York evangelistic committee, has con- A. B. ducted successful campaigns in Louisville, Knoxville, Pittsburg and New York. The New York evangelistic committee, with headquarters in New York, is one of the strongest religious organizations in the world and has founds object the holding of revivals and conducting religious campaigns in the large cities of the country. It was the spread of the work of the evangelistic committee among the colored people of the large centers that necessitated the appointment of a member of the race to conduct revival meetings. Dr. Butler's effective work on the streets of New York in the thickly populated colored districts has done much for the moral and religious uplift of the race. Reference may be made to the San Juan Hill district, reputed to be the worst section in the city. The tone of this community has been greatly improved since Dr. Butler's effective campaigns. The evangelistic committee has closed its summer campaigns. At the converts' rally, held at Carnegie hall recently, which was attended by fully 5,000 people, the work of Dr. Butler was especially commended by the committee. Dr. Butler told of the many colored communities which have been helped since the work was started. Dr. Butler's success as an evangelist is due to his forceful and earnest manner, which is convincing and never fails to leave a decided impression. Dr. Butler is amply prepared for his life's work. He was born in Wilsonville, Ala. After attending the public schools he went to Talladega college, from which he graduated. After doing special work at Maryville college he entered the theological department of Lincoln university, from which he was graduated in 1890. In 1902 he came to St. James' Presbyterian church, where he remained eight years. The church had wonderful growth under Dr Butler, moving from a hall in West Thirty-third street to a handsome brick edifice in West Fifty-first street costing $40,000. The membership increased from a small flock of twenty members to a congregation of 400. Dr. Butter was prevailed upon to remain at St. James church, but felt that he could do greater good as an evangelist. He has planned an extensive campaign for the fall and winter, which will carry him over a large territory. American Scholars at Races Congress. The scholarship of the Afro-American was much in evidence at the races congress in London. There were three men who loomed high in the estimation of their fellows because of their profound knowledge of the subjects assigned to them for discussion. These were Dr. W. E. B. Du Bols, President W. S. Scarborough and Professor Earle E. Fluch, the brainy trio from the United States. Albion Academy Opens Auspieleously.

Mr. Hayford is also the author of another book, a legal work of some importance to natives, entitled "Gold Coast Native Institutions," which treats of the legal procedure among the natives of the Gold Coast for hundreds of years past and discovers the fact that the concepts of law and equity and justice held by the alleged "heathen" tribes of Africa in the adjudication of causes tried before their native courts do not in any way suffer by comparison with those practiced by "the more favored nations," which are fond of singing. "Shall we whose souls are lighted with wisdom from on high," etc. "Gold Coast Native Institutions" is the second legal work from the pen of a native African lawyer. The first book of the kind was published several years ago by Mr. J. M. Sarboh, now deceased, entitled "Fanti Customary Laws," and had, as Mr. Caseley Hayford's book is having, a wide circulation in Africa and England. Of "Ethiopia Unbound" I wish to say that no book, in my judgment, of the present century holds greater interest to the thoughtful and observant Negroes of Africa and the world than it does. It is a serious book, written in a happy, hopeful vein, and discusses with masterful ability, keen logic and philosophical reasoning the great world question—the relation of the darker races to the dominant races and the cause of the impotence and helplessness of the latter. The author points out a way which he thinks will 1 HON. CASELEY HAYFORD. have the effect of begetting more consideration and respect for these dark races, which are being used as shuttlecocks by the dominant, grasping, greedy nations of the world. "Ethiopia Unbound" is a remarkable book. It is a profound analytical study of present racial and sociological conditions as seen through the eyes of an African scholar and thinker. It is bound to create a favorable impression in America among Negroes who read it, especially those who think, as well as to excite surprise among white men that a Negro has given such a faithful and accurate and truthful description of their methods—in adding field to field "by tricks that are vain and ways that are dark." The book may be had on application to the publishers for 5 shillings ($1.25) or to Bruce Grit, Sunnyslope Farm, Yonkers, N. Y.; 10 cents additional to cover postage. Educational and Industrial Fair.

Thursday, Nov. 23, is the date agreed upon by the committee of ninety-seven for the great parade in New York signalizing the opening of the campaign in the interest of the men and boys of America and New York in particular. The men and religion forward movement is essentially one of hope and not of despair. its chief value is to show the strength of the Christian churches in America. J. R.
