Zion, A. M. E., U. A. M. E. and C. M. E. Bishop Alexander Walters of New York, the distinguished prelate of the A. M. E. Zion church, and Bishop C. S. Smith of Detroit, of the A. M. E. church, are two of the most distinguished churchmen in attendance at the conference. Each of them presided at one session of the conference. The opening sermon was preached by the Rev. Heury Haigh, president of the Wesleyan Methodist conference. Next came the sacrament of the Lord's supper, administered by Blahops J. M. Walden, A. W. Wilson, B. F. Lee, Revs. Heury Haigh, Edwin Dalton and George Parker. The afternoon session had to do with addresses of welcome by Rev. Dr. W. M. Briggs. Bishop J. W. Hamilton, H. B. Parks, and P. E. Hass. Responses were made by Revs. Henry Haigh, B. S. Henbaw Sir Robert Perks and R. W. Essex, M. P. The colored delegates' contribution to the program begin with the address of Rev. Dr. J. A. Bray, president of the Miles Memorial college of Birmingham, who spoke on "Methodism as a Joyous Religion." This was the second day's session of the conference. The topic discussed was "Ecumenical Methodism." The third day of the conference Bishop C. S. Smith of the A. M. E. church presided. The topic discussed was "Foreign Missionary Enterprises." Bishop G.

Brown and wife of Glenwood Springs were in the city this week en route to Fort Worth, Texas. They have sold their holdings in Glenwood and are going south to join with a party of Texans who are going to Old Mexico where they propose taking over land which is producing coffee and sugar and has the necessary mills on it for the refining and preparation of the raw goods for the market. They number some men of wealth in the party and are headed by Dr. Jones of Fort Worth. They propose also to raise stock, cattle and mules. Mr. and Mrs. Brown are former residents of Denver and are owners of real estate here. COLORED MEN RAISE BEST WHEAT. Meeker, Colo., is one farming section that has been blessed with good crops in this off year. The palm for the best wheat happened to go to one well known in Denver, Everett Reynolds, who is homesteading there. The second best also went to a Negro, Tom. Russell, who also used to make this his home. DENVER PERSONALS. The biggest event in next week will be the skating mask carnival at Luna park on Friday night. The opening last week was most auspicious, and the perfect arrangement for the care of those who attend, no matter what kind of weather prevails, made a deep impression on those who went. The managers have prizes which will be given those with the best and fan-cient costumes. Attorney A. W. Lewis is the speaker or at the meeting of the Y. M. O. K. Sunday. A solo by C. A. Clark will also be a feature. Mrs. A. E. Edwards has returned to the city from Kentucky in readiness for the trial of J. J. Manuel, which is set for the week of the 23rd. She is stopping in Harmon. "LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT" At Shorter Chapel, A. M. E. Church, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28TH, 1911. Admission, 25 Cents. C. W. Miles continues very ill with little hopes expressed for his recovery. The death of Dan Lee, who has for many years been janitor at the city hall, occurred Wednesday at his home at 104 Josephine street. He had been ailing for several years and passed away with Bright's disease. He was a man well thought of by those who were associated with him. His employment by the rich and eminent citizens of this city some years ago made his acquaintance broad so that the good will which attached to him comes from some of Denver's best. He leaves a wife and children. A. C. Ford of Cheyenne passed through the city last week en route to Grand Junction. Mrs. Marguerite Willson had the misfortune last week to fall down stairs with her infant child. Neither appear to have suffered any permanent injuries. FOR RENT—Furnished rooms at 1839 Marlon street.

Blackwell. FORT BUSELL NEWS The regiment has just returned from its trip to the Wyoming State Fair which has held at Douglas. The round trip of 300 miles was made across country and was indeed pleasant, made so largely by prevailing good weather and our fireless cookers, which kept everybody feeling good. On this trip the commanding officer demonstrated his horsemanship in no uncertain manner. While at the fair the regiment proved a big attraction, both officers and men taking part in many events and landing some nice prizes. The Roman and relay races proved more exciting than heretofore. As usual, the band came in for its share of recognition, playing to a crowded house each evening at the opera house. The citizens and visitors pronounce the Ninth as being a model regiment both as to tactics and good breeding, having visited the fair three consecutive times without any semblance of disorder, misbehavior or lawlessness. Both officers and men are proud of this record. Sergt. Major Logan and wife have just returned to the Pacific coast. The major was not in evidence on the hike. The boycott of the local street car company goes merrily on, neither side showing an inclination to yield. Of course, the soldiers are too well trained to retreat from their present position. In the meantime Cheyenne merchants are suffering, perhaps justly so, as they have not yet seen the wisdom of refusing to use the cars until the five-cent fare is assured. It's "us for Denver" now. Mr. Chas. Foster of the Tuskegee band comes as a recruit to the cavalry band, as does Mr. Finley of the Pittsburg, Pa., K. P. band. With the opportunity offered here, these young men should become skilled artists. Sergt. Jasper Jones of the famous I troop seems to be losing his laurels as a "warrior." Jasper is usually ready to get in the "illar" and go to the field. He has just joined the Ft. Russell Home Guards, under command of "Old, Soldier Slauter." Sergt. Harris of the band is soon to Sergt. Harris of the band is soon to retire. Who's next? Misa Beatrice is the new member to Prof. and Mrs. Hammond's family. Captain Ohas. Young would certainly make a fine commanding officer for the proposed regiment of National Guard (colored) for New York state. He has it "under his hat." New Yorkers are already taking a slant at him, so we bear. TRINIDAD, COLO. We desire to inform the public of the ubliant spirit of the members of the A. M. E. church over the return of their pastor, Rev. J. A. Brown. It is a mild expression to say his return for another year was hailed with great delight. Simpson Rest No. 10, A. F. & A. M., is loud in its praise to the bishop for his wise and Godly judgment in sending to this church as pastor the Rev. J. H. Brown. Columbia No. 3, K. of P., is on the same line when they say that a better man than Rev. Brown is rarely found. To the work of the church, our Christians have been real busy since his return. The boards of the various departments have been organized and all officers and members of the church have pledged a higher stand of Christian living and better support to the church. Rev. J. H. Brown arrived in time to save the church property from being sold for improvement tax of 1008, of which notices had been given and the members knew nothing about. The news has reached our ears, by a notice received from the president of Oskaloosa college by Rev. J. H. Brown, that he had been weighed in the balance of the special committee of theology, and was not found wanting. Rev. Brown passed the examination before Rev. L. D. Jerard, D. D.; L. L. D., a member of the alumni board of the same college, and who carried the result before the executive of that college, which was highly esteemed by that board. The notice in the known read he had passed a satisfactory examination and upon the letters of recommendation from any two persons who have known the reverend for some time would be the end and the degree of D. D. would be conferred. The letters have been sent and the reverend will have the honors are the public receives this notice. The plan for the new church is in the hands of a colored contractor in Denver. This step opens the way to other heights. The Masonic hall is to be erected, parsonage for the church, etc. The first quarterly conference was truly a pleasure. The P. E. was at his best and preached two reviving and instructive sermons. The praise service at 3 p. m. was a recalling to the minds of those present of the time when the church had power with God. Rev. J. H. Brown, wife and daughter, who have just returned from El Reno, Okla., after a three months visit with their two daughters, Mrs. F. O. Dawson and Miss Nellie L. Brown, are both pictures of health. Mrs. J. H. Booker had a needle to stick in her foot last week, which was very dangerous. She is suffering slight pain at present. Rev. J. C. C. Owens, D. D., passed high compliments upon Rev. Brown and wife as the people who know how to use their guest. Rev. Owens left for Walsenburg Tuesday, after a three days' visit and ending one of the most successful quarters he has ever held in Grace chapel. GRAND JUNCTION, COLO. It is fine to know that among the many fine fruit ranches around Grand Junction valued at $1,000 per acre, several of those farms are owned and run by colored men, such as Ellijah Hines and several others, and they belong also to the Fruit Growers' association. Several colored people own some good property in this city and it is one of the most business cities in the West, comparatively speaking. Handy chapel, A. M. S. church, the only colored church in the city, is enjoying much spiritual life emitting from all the different services. Our first quarterly conference, which convenes Sunday, the 15th, is locked forward to with much interest. The old reliable will be here, Rev. J. C. C. Owens of Denver, whose venerable appearance will sharpen our spiritual appetites. Our new pastor, Rev. J. W. Fent, and wife and now nicely arranged in the parsonage and are working herically. Campbell Chapel Harvest Home Festival and Church Industrial Fair, October 28 to 37. DENVER PERSONAL MENTION WANTED—Strong, willing young men who are willing to come out and chew dust or do anything within reason that the captain may demand. We had about one full team out for the last three afternoons, who are fastly getting acquainted with the hard, hard ground, but there is room for much improvement. Come out and make your rival work for the position. There will be a meeting of those interested in football Tuesday evening at Shorter's church to elect a captain and manager and to see who can be secured to coach. THE ALLIANCE NOTES AND COMMENTS At a meeting of the People's Sunday Alliance, Rev. J. A. Thomas-Hazell delivered a most excellent and forceful address on the subject of "The Negro's Contribution to Civilization." It was the essay which the reverend read at the First Inter-Haces Congress, held in London, England, in July. In the London meeting only 20 minutes could be given to the address, but in the meeting of the Alliance more time could be given and the Rev. Thomas-Hazell availed himself of the freedom to the benefit of his hearers. He was introduced to the audience by Rev. Wallace of Scott M. E. church and the Alliance and its friends enjoyed the literary treat of the season. At the close of the address it was voted that the address become a part of the series of papers on historical research now under preparation for the good of the people, through the Alliance. The other items of interest were the report of the Harris case and the announcement of the beginning of the series of papers on historical research on Oct. 29th. The plan, as announced some time since, is to have six essays on the general topic of the Negro in the light of history. For weeks and even months some of the essayists have been consulting library references and other available printed matter on this general subject under six different heads and they will no doubt bring out matters that will interest and encourage the young and plant the old deeper in the faith that the race is a part of God's creation. Detailie announcements will be made preceding each appearance, which will occur on the last Sunday of the following months: October, November, December, 1911, and January, February and March, 1912. Able essayists, conscientious study of facts and authorities, are prime objects of the entire series. Don't miss hearing all of them. COLORED DOCTOR OFFICER OF STATE ASSOCIATION. People come to look upon familiar men and things with little recognition of any peculiar merit they may have. The Statesman is delighted to give extended mention to the activity of Negroes who do things in the hope that the race may come to see that it has reason to be proud of its own men and works. The praise which is bestowed without occasion and in return for a price should not be confused with the well earned commendation that merit wins. There does some good come out of Nazareth. While Negroes have started late in the race, some measure up with the standards in their professions already. We are glad, therefore, to relate the following facts concerning one of our doctors, and allow the inevitable conclusions to be drawn by our readers. The Homeopathic doctors of Colorado have a state association which ranks high in the medical world. Dr. W. A. Jones has been for years affiliated with the association and of recent years has come to be recognised as a leading practitioner. One of the FIVE CENTS A COPY NATIONAL MENTION Personal Mention on Pages Two, e and Six latest evidences of the esteem in which he is held by his fellow medics was his election, even in his absence, to the board of censors, who are the authority to say what is and what is not permissable. In the session which is just closed, Dr. Jones presented a paper on Sanitary Science and Preventive Medicine. This was in addition to his work as head or the bureau covering the same work. MEN FEAST THE PASTOR OF ZION. The rally which Zion church undertook in September and finished on October 9, has brought in not quite $2,000 and it is expected that it will reach that amount before the close. As a fitting end of the light came the feast, scheduled for Tuesday night. It was at the church and the leader of the victorious host, Rev. D. E. Over, was there given to understand how much he was esteemed. Zion church is fortunate in having a number of men really interested in the church work, and they were the originators of the idea of a banquet complimentary to the pastor. Alex. A. Waller was manager of the affair and those who attended vouch for its being the best possible. The ladies of the Willing Workers provided the substantials that gladdened the palate, while C. S. Muse, Dr. Jones and A. C. Jackson poured forth food for the reason. The pastor made a fitting response. The banquet also partook of the nature of the beginning of the Bible class. This class, which was once before in full swing and was interfered with by the health of the pastor, Rev. Over, is again on foot and will do even larger work than study of the Bible. Its meetings will be Tuesday evenings at Zion church. Don't miss seeing Mrs. Josephine McKeether as Bert Williams in one of his latest songs, Oct. 19. Don't hesitate to call Main 7905 when you have news for The Statesman. It is welcome. SHORTER CHAPEL NOTES Rev. J. S. Payne, recently appointed presiding elder in the Kansas conference, will preach at Shorter Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. The pastor will deliver his first of a series of special Sunny evening sermons, on Church Anity, at 7:30 p.m. The annual election of the Sunday school board last week resulted in the re-election of Mrs. Effie Waldon superintendent of the main school and Mrs. Fannie Brown superintendent of the primary department. The attendance at the school reached high water mark last Sunday. The official board is perfecting the church records just now. The pruning knife has not been spared altogether. The church has been called to meet in the regular annual meeting Friday evening, Oct. 20th. Only members of the church will be admitted. The trustees have designated Sunday, Oct. 29, for all members and friends to make a special donation for the winter fuel of not less than 25 cents nor more than $1.00. All should rally to them. Remember "The Disappointed Bride or Love at First Sight," Oct. 26. Our first quarterly meeting for this conference year will be held Sunday, Nov. 5. We should make it a high day in Zion. Come then and worship with us. You will be made welcome. Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor. ```markdown ``` Short Orders at All Hours. Regular Dinner 20c from 12 noon to 3 p. m. Special Sunday Dinner, 30c.

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 Ruban- dry, 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 food stuff as nearly as possible for the 1,200 head of live stock owned by the school. The young men in this divi- Booker T.

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 wh... or skim milk to the boarding department of the school, and to the town.

PERSONAL NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. Last Sunday morning the pastor preached from the "Denial of M. Peter." The discourse seemed to have been enjoyed by a large congregation of worshippers. The singing by both the congregation and the shout was especially une. The high spiritual tone which marks our Sunday worship is a splendid tribute to the fellowship which now exists in Zion. At the evening service we had reports from the national convention by Sisters Lillie L. Smith and T. D. Parks. Both the addresses were exceptionally good and were received very kindly by those who heard them. Sister Smith reported on the work of the convention and Sister Perkins greatly interested her hearers by an instructive account of the conditions prevailing among our people in the East. Sunday closed the rally which has occupied the attention of Zion for the last month. The total to date is $1,939.55, lacking just $60.45 of the figure that was set. This small amount will come in during the next few days. Taking all things into consideration, this is the most remarkable rally ever held by any church in the city. Zion still leads. The Pastor's Aid society and the Board of Usher's tendered to the pastor a most delightful reception for men only on last Tuesday night. A very delightful program of speeches was rendered and a very elaborate supper was served. This was a moss-gratifying courtesy to the pastor, not only as a mark of appreciation of the work he is trying to do for the men, but when the men of the church take such a step to show their appreciation for and loyalty to the efforts which are being put forth, it means much for the future of the kingdom. In a few days invitations will be out inviting all the men of the community to enroll in this season's "Bible class" for men. The pastor is planning to give especial attention to the work of this class and hopes to see the enrollment reach above the 100-mark. Every man is welcome and is invited to come. The meeting night is Tuesday from 8 till 9 o'clock. Our sick list still includes the following: Sisters Ethel Layton, Clara Monroe, Grace Wiggins, Brother Max Andrews and little Samuel Russell, the youngest son of Brother and Sister Russell, who was taken this week with diphtheria. Do not forget to pray for these dear ones. The doll contest is now on and that beautiful $25.00 doll is on exhibition at Tuttle and Metaner's drug store, corner Twenty-sixth and Welton streets. The doll will be on exhibition there all next week and will be removed to another place for the week following. Announcements will be made from time to time. The first of the series of sermons from the Temptation of Jesus will be delivered tomorrow night. The subject is: "Divine Power: How Shall I Use It?" Text: "If Thou be the Son of God, make these stones bread." The public is cordially invited. NOTES OF THE PEOPLE'S BYTERIAN CHURCH.

The Guild had a splendid program last Tuesday night. After the routine work, Mrs. Stella Maddox read a very instructive paper setting forth the appeal of Rev. D. Abeel for constructive work in foreign missions. Mrs. Claire Davis, an active member of the Missionary society, and Miss G. Striplin, her daughter, both of whom were visitors, helpfully discussed the paper. Miss Fannie Edmonds, a graduate of one of our leading schools, was the hostess for the Guild. A healthy repast was quite an appetizer to the aftermath of the meeting. The Guild is under obligations to Miss Edmonds for her treat.

Well Known Anthropologist Notes Change In Color of Afro-Americanas. As the earlier separated American types are becoming centred into one type, so the American Negro, already possessed of many of the mental and emotional characteristics of our nation, has become so importantly different from his African ancestor that to call him a plains Ethiopian would not be touching the point, says Wattier Wheaton Kenilworth in the Forum. He is already an American citizen. Who knows what he will be six generations hence? Apart from this, it remains singularly mysterious just exactly why the Negro type is gradually reallishing its darker bodily shade and coming into a rarer and more Caucasian color. There are Negroes, and on increasingly growing number of them, white color is not the followed from that of the average African of southern Europe or western Asia. Many of them in these bodies are allowing the affinities of --- W. B.

Entered as second class matter at the postoffice in the city of Denver, Colorado. IDEALS OF OUR OWN There is in progress in this city a doll contest that is more than a mero contest. It is an education. The reason lies in the fact that the doll contested for is a Negro doll, a pretty brown-skinned, crinkly-haired beauty that is the admiration of all who see it. Even whites have admired the perfection of this Negro doll, the product of colored brain and colored workmen. It is not our purpose to extoll the beauty of the doll so much as to praise the givers of the contest for their foresight in devising such a means of educating the community to our dire need of ideals that are our own. So long has it been the custom for the little Negro child to fondle a blue-eyed, flaxen-haired doll, that the incongruity, the downright tragedy of it, has struck but few. Since childhood is the formative period in which character is shaped, no one can estimate the untold harm that has been done the Negro race by thus implanting in children's minds ideals of personal beauty that they could never obtain. Worst of all, the children have showed their kinship to all humanity by being the more chagrined because it was impossible to be flaxen-hairea and blue-eyed. The absurd divisions existing within the race based upon degrees of admixture of white blood, have been fostered by the silly practice of thrusting white standards upon Negro children. Let the Negro race be willing to stand up and be counted! Let it be willing to be weighed! Merit or demerit, vice or virtue, ignorance or wisdom, be ours what it may, we cannot make progress under false pretense. The Negro doll will teach the colored child the lesson of self-respect. That lesson learned early will eradicate the silly color factions we have, will place all workers, our own and the white, on an equality where they will be judged by their merit and not by color. We have too much of general denunciation of black workers by black people for no other reason than that some black worker has lacked merit. Shame! Shame! upon a people so lost to self-respect that it despises its own. God should crush us, He WILL CRUSH US, unless we place ideals before us that are good, that are attainable, and ideals that we will approach. PUT THE BRAND ON FAKIRS. There are several enterprises which are being pushed by Negroes in Colorado which have no substantial backing whatever. They are the fliersiest of dreams. The promoters of legitimate enterprises deserve support. Even when their plans do not turn out as expected and the ventures are not financial successes, the promoters are guilty of no bad intentions. The class of enterprises we do not mean. But the fakirs who travel up and down the state soliciting money from citizens in the name of enterprises purporting to be for the uplift of Negroes, are a class apart. They prey upon the kind feelings which white people have for us; they impose upon their generosity; they are accepted upon their own claims of being worthy; they are making it all the harder or legitimate Negro charities to be helped because they will bring all under suspicion. We suggest that the ministers of each city take upon themselves the investigation of proposals which seek money from the general public, and unhesitatingly denounce all that are not good. There is no virtue in the dark color of a Negro fakir that makes him any less a rogue because he is a Negro.

The pastor will make a short address on the life and work of John Stewart. You are cordially invited to enjoy this spicy program. The quarterly conference was largely attended. The reports showed progress along all lines. The full assessment of the district superintendent was raised, with a few dollars to apply on the steward's account. The officers and members have the sincere thanks of an appreciative pastor and superintendent. Rev. Thomas-Hazell preached a very strong sermon Sunday afternoon to a very appreciative audience. The Ladies' Aid bazaar and Thanksgiving dinner is being planned. Mesdames Burrell and Pash have been selected as the chairmen of the dinner committee. Masters Henry Burrell and Wendell Wallace celebrated their third birthday party at the residence of Mrs. Louise Burrell last Friday afternoon. The following little fellows attended: Goldie McPherson, Annie L. Collier, Thomas W. Wallace, Clarence J. Collier, Marie Brown. It was an enjoyable affair and the little fellows went home wishing that a birthday party could be given every day. Mrs. Emma Anderson entertained the members of the Junior League Sunday afternoon. Four bables were baptized last Sunday morning. They were Masters C. J. Collier, LeRoy wallace, Misses Sepha Dooley and Marie Brown.

Oh, yes, we are all under the impression that we are living up to the minute, but I am sorry to say that Denver colored people are really ten years behind the times, comparing them with the Eastern and Southern Negroes. And the most amusing fact about the Denver Negro is that he or she thinks that they are really living, when the fact about the matter is that they are hardly existing. The fact about the matter is that I can hardly see what we are living for. Why, there is nothing in Denver that would mean a long and happy life to the Negro in the way of pleasure and amusement. The fact that we are merely existing hurts; but what are we to do? There are very few men in this city with money, that have sense enough to put it to good use. Five thousand dollars invested in Negro pleasure resorts would make Denver one of the greatest little cities in the country. We could then have a theatre, a dance hall, a skating rink and a swell colored cafe, all on the same order of the swell places in the big Eastern cities. Some people wonder why we don't, and can't have them. Well, the reason we don't have all sorts of pleasure places in Denver is because the men with money are, as I stated before, all afraid to venture in anything that costs over a hundred dollars, and there will never be anything in Denver until some strange Negro comes and opens up, or some white man opens a place, for the near-sighted, tight-wadded Negro of this city then to oppose. And the young men that are inclined to venture into some kind of business in Denver have either got to get together with all of the police force and preachers or else they can't open either; so if we are to be opposed by our own people it is going to be almost impossible for Denver to be any more in 50 years from now than it is today. A beautiful city for the whites, but an awfully dead city for the Negroes. To miss the recital Monday night is to miss half of your life, so fall in line to hear the nightingale of the race. FOOTBALL IN DENVER. Well, it is just what I expected, a whole lot of talk and very little work. A few weeks ago all of the young men of the city were very much enthused over the coming season of football, and there were several different teams under way to present plenty of football sport. But now at the present time all of the football enthusiasts of a few weeks ago are just the same as they were in early spring—talking more of some other season's sport than of football. The Rocky Mountain Athletic club may have a team. The Y. M. C. B.'s are somewhat doubtful and at present Howard McGinnis, captain of Five Points eleven, looks to be the most fruitful of the whole bunch. Quindaro College wrote some time ago concerning a game for Thanksgiving, but I am afraid there will be nothing doing. CHICAGO'S COLORED HIGH SCHOOL BOYS. On account of some prejudice that exists among the whites, it has been made a law in all of Chicago's high schools to bar the young colored scholars from taking part in any of their out-of-doors sports. As it is to be remembered that a colored boy was one of the star football players of the whole city last year, having attended one of the high schools in Hyde Park and he came to the front with such high honors that it caused a large amount of prejudice that brought on the unequal rights between the two races. CARL MORRIS STILL HAS HOPE8. The big Oklahoma giant prize fighter, Carl Morris, who has been hailed as the white man's hope, still has hopes of doing like Jeffries, coming back after receiving such a beating from one Jim Flynn. He is going to take Joe Jeannette in camp, and might in time do as he says. THE PACIFIC COAST LINE QUARTETTE. The great vocal and string quartette of the coast that played all of the coast line houses with so much success, opened up their season last week in Seattle. They will play down the coast line to Los Angeles and then come out on the Pantages circuit, playing Denver the first of the year. Join the crowd to hear and cheer Mme. Brown Monday night at People's church. One of the fastest bantams of Philadelphia is Kid Young Dixion, the clever young colored ughter who so easily beat Harry Jones recently in their six-round bout at the National Club of Philadelphia. Young Dixion is said to be the coming kid with a punch in either hand that will bring home the money, and he has the nerve of a bull dog and never says die, or in other words, he has the stuff that makes champions. VOUNG DENVER NEGRO GOES TO QUINDARO TO PLAY FOOTBALL. Of course Denver can produce some things and some people, and in fact we age producing a very capable young man in the person of Fred Mayo Boon, a prominent young man of this city, who finished quindaro College last year, but has been asked to come back this season purposely to play football, as he was the star player of the team last year. JACK JOHNSON TO QUIT. It has been rumored that Jack Johnson will not live abroad, as has been already reported, but will soon come back to this country where he intends to quit the fight game and go into business in Chicago. And Jack is not broke. He only has $250,000 to his credit, which is not so bad. It is reported also that he will cancele engagements in Australia and return home at once. AT THE PANTAGES THEATRE The big quartette that played at the Pantages theatre of this city, closing last night, by the name of the Watermelon Trust Co., were not near as pleasing as they were and should have been. The act is slow and in some parts very niggardly, and on the whole, to come down to the truth about the matter, it was the worst act on the whole bill. Of course, there were a couple of good songs, but these little hits were blemished by their other bad stunts, and if in the future they contemplate coming back to Denver they will certainly have to produce something that is a credit and not a detriment. SAM LANGFORD AND JOE JEAN- NETTE The two clever boxers who have met so many times, Langford and Jeannette, are matched to meet again in a 20-round affair in the near future. This bout is to decide forever which is the best man. H. W. CLAY MRS. A. W.

Notable Achievements of Two Well Known Men. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Little Rock, Ark.-The public school system of this city is not surpassed by that of any in the south. The recent opening of the schools for the fall showed a large enrollment. Besides the Baptist college and the Philander Smith college, there are four other splendid schools-viz. the Gibbs high school, Capitol hill, Twenty-first and the Lettle Stevens school. The attendance on the opening days was: High school, 155; grammar schools, 1,350. The whole number of children of school age is 3,000. The suburban school near the city is taught by Miss Cora L. Radcliffe, a former teacher in the city schools. Miss Radcliffe teaches the full grammar course. This school has no assistant teachers. The full corps of teachers number forty-two. There are two supervisors of writing, drawing, music and physical culture, two domestic science teachers and one instructor in manual training. The course of study is twelve years, divided into the following periods: Eight years in the grammar school and four years in the high school. Many of the graduates enter the service as teachers in the district schools, while others find employment as clerks, typewriters and stenographers in the stores and offices of our business and professional men. Taking M. all in all, the colored people are making good use of their advantages for obtaining an education and for doing business. Opportunities in the Public Service. It is safe to say that few if any southern cities of its size offer such large opportunities for our people to find employment in the municipal and public works departments as is true of Little Rock. Carpenters, blacksmiths, wheelwrights, brick masons, plasterers, painters, architects and electricians enjoy a liberal share of the jobs given out by contractors. In almost every department of the municipal service may be found a representative of the race. The postoffice has a colored superintendent of city delivery, who has a large force of clerks and other employees in his department. This is an instance where a man of merit has really been given a fair chance to make good regardless of race or color. The fortunate person is Mr. H. H. Garner, who worked his way up to the front. Like Mr. Garner, the Hon. John E. Bush is another man of the race in the public service in Little Rock, still higher up. Mr. Bush is in charge of the United States land office, a position which he fills with credit and ability. Aside from the important and exacting duties of his office, Mr. Bush is interested in all good movements in which the well being of the race is at stake. The achievements of these two men, coupled with the excellent educational facilities for our people, are distinctions well worthy of note in the progress of the race. Rev. Dr. W. M. Moss' Anniversaries. The first anniversary of the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss as pastor of the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn will be held on Sunday, Oct. 15.

The United States is represented by Afro-Americans in the diplomatic service as follows: Ministers and secretaries to the Liberian and Haitian governments, two consuls in France and three at different posts in South America. ```markdown ``` National Independent Political League Except to All Forms of Injunction. Continuing its memorial address to the country, the well known legal rights organization says: All true Americans should be opposed to the establishment in this republic of any caste system. Yet a return to the outgrown caste of heathen India is evident in the ostracism and segregation of American citizens, especially the enforced separation by public statutes. The jimcrow car laws of the south are a stigma and a public brand of inferiority put purposely upon all citizens of color. They seemed the extreme of this caste until, lo and behold, enactments for residence segregation, even preventing occupancy of property by the owners. This color segregation we resent as an insult and an abridgment of our freedom and property rights. In this government, founded on the principle that taxation without representation is tyranny and that government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed, the right to vote is preservative of all other rights. Hence the dental of the ballot to colored citizens so boldly carried out by southern states, even under state constitutions, constitutes a political crime such as the world has seldom witnessed. Logically in its wake has followed the complete destruction of citizenship until there is nothing in the category of human oppression not suffered by the disfranchised black millions of the south, and this in violation of the fourteenth and fifteenth articles of the federal constitution. The right of trial by jury is a cardinal principle of civilized government. The accuser and the accused must be brought face to face and the evidence sifted by an impartial jury. The denial of this right is subversive of government and destructive of civilization. Yet lynch law reigns supreme in this United States. The condoning of this outrage in the south by the silence of the north has encouraged and strengthened this monster until he holds today within his grasp the entire country and we stand upon the verge of anarchy. The brutality of these mob murders puts to shame the dark ages and causes even Turkey to shudder. Whole white communities lapse into barbarism as thousands turn out even on the Sabbath to witness the burning of human beings, while little children drink in thirst of human blood and women fight for pieces of the charred bones and roasted flesh as souvenirs. In the face of this color discrimination in varied forms the chief executive of the nation, sworn to enforce the constitution, uphold the law and sustain the dignity of the country, is silent, inactive and publicly declares his impotency. NEW PRINCIPAL OF COREY MEMORIAL INSTITUTE Portsmouth (Va.) School Secures Services of Professor D. B. Elliott. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Portsmouth, Va.-The trustees of the Corey Memorial institute, located in this town, are fortunate in having secured the services of Professor D. B. Elliott of Virginia Union university as principal of the school to succeed the Rev. Dr. B. F. McWilliams, who resigned the principalship to accept the pastorate of the Third Baptist church, Toledo, O. Dr. McWilliams administered the affairs of the institution very successfully for four years, and it was with much regret that the trustees accepted his resignation. Professor Elliott, the new principal, brings to the school ripe scholarship, splendid executive ability and a determination to succeed. The school has a corps of efficient teachers, whose experience in the classroom will go far toward making Mr. Elliott's administration a success from the very beginning. The enrollment for the present term has already reached the hundred mark; which is an evidence of growth and encouragement for the new management. It is the aim of the trustees, with the co-operation of the principal, to clear the institution of debt, enlarge the chapel and make improvements upon the campus. The school is conveniently located and has a large territory from which to secure its students. While it is one of the youngest of the many institutions of learning in the tidewater section of Virginia, it has nevertheless measured up to a high standard of efficiency in its work. The increasing population in the cities and towns which are within easy reach of Portsmouth makes the future outlook for the Corey Memorial institute extremely bright. Professor Elliott begins work in his new field under favorable circumstances with the full co-operation of the board of trustees and a well defined policy of school management, which will no doubt make itself felt in the advancement and interest of the institution. Centree Normal College Opens. The Conroe Normal and Industrial college, Conroe, Tex., opened for the fall term on Monday, Oct. 2, with an larger facilities for the reception of students.
