GREAT DEMONSTRATION FOR DR. WASHINGTON.
Ovations From His Race Marked Tour of Noted Educater.
Texarkana, Ark—The tour of Dr. Booker T. Washington, who was accompanied by a party of prominent well known colored men from various portions of the country, came to an end here. Everywhere the distinguished educator received overwhelming demonstrations of regard and affection, mingled with exultant pride on the part of the Negro deo-
pie. Equally cordial was the reception given him by representative white men in various places, notably the conference with Mayor Callaghan in San Antonio, the presentation free of cost of the city auditorium, a building seating more than 7,000 people, by the mayor of Houston, the more than cordial address by Mayor T. P. Wooldridge of Austin, the address of welcome by City Superintendent J. C. Lattimore at Waco and the perfectly frank yet friendly address of introduction by Hon. Chesley Adams, former county superintendent of public schools at Marshall.
As on former occasions, Dr. Washington was accompanied by a party of distinguished Negroes, among them being Emmett J. Scott, his secretary; Booker T. Washington, Jr.; Dr. J. A. Kenny, resident physician; A. R. Ammons of the institute battalion, Tuskegee institute, Alabama; W. T. B.

TACT IN ADVERTISING.
Competition Makes Judicious Advertising Necessary. BY ALBON L. HOLSEY. The keen competition of the present era has more than any other agency made advertising the most potent factor in modern business - potent because it is the surest road to business success and carries with it the most diversified business experiences. An advertising campaign judiciously planned and carefully executed, when backed by a house that gives its patrons a square deal, almost invariably brings manifold returns, but there are many merchants who advertise at random without any well defined plans.
Whenever I hear a merchant say that advertising doesn't pay I always ask questions, and in every instance I have found they had wasted money in random advertising. All advertising campaigns must have a definite policy, carefully planned according to the special advantages of the particular article or territory to be covered.
Too many of our business men wait to see how things are going in sales before they think of advertising, and the result is they often fail to arouse much enthusiasm among their patrons. Advertising should always precede the placing of the goods upon the counter.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 21. 1911
Company Buys Rich Tract In Stevens County, Wash.
PURPOSE OF THE PROMOTERS
Group of Thrifty Spokane Citizens Organize and incorporate Deer Lake Irrigated Orchards Project to De Intensive Farming—Scientific- Use of Water on Volcanic Ash Soil.
Spokane, Wash.—Of very great importance, yet not so widely known, is the work of the Deer Lake Irrigated Orchards company, an incorporated organization of investors, with headquarters at 248 Riverside avenue, Spokane. The officers of the company are: President, P. B. Barrow; vice president, F. A. Stokes; secretary, C. S. Barrow; treasurer, Charles S. Parker; trustees, F. E. Wilson, O. C. Groff and Robert Crump. The property of the company consists of 14) acres of rich farm land, situated on the shores of Deer Lake in Stevens county, for which the company价 $15,000.
By means of a gasoline pumping plant the land has been irrigated and laid out in sections for fruit growing, truck gardening and for the general cultivation of a variety of farm products. The raising of winter apples, for which the soil is admirably adapted, will be one of the chief features of the nursery farm. The company gives employment to scores of men and women of our race. For the ingathering of the crops this fall the number employed probably reached 100. The promoters of the company are not novices, but men who have already achieved success in business.
President P. B. Barrow is rated at $30,000. He lives on a beautiful tract of 200 acres across the lake opposite the company's property with a beach frontage of half a mile. F. E. Wilson, one of the trustees, owns 160 acres adjoining the company's property and shares shore ownership of the southwest end of the lake. He also has fifteen acres planted in orchards and resides in a beautiful dwelling with modern improvements. Vice President F. A. Stokes owns $20,000 worth of farm lands, including real estate in the city.
Messrs. Parker and Barrow are partners in the printing business in Spokane. Their plant is fully equipped with typesetting machines, presses, etc. They are publishers of the Spokane Citizen. They do an annual business of about $15,000. The outfit of farming implements, with teams and farm buildings, cost thousands of dollars. The returns from the investment within the short period of two years since the formation of the company have justified the output. A few years ago it was said, "With the sun which shines on the soil of Washington and water there can be no such thing as failure in crops." Subsequent developments in nearly every county in the state have proved the truth of this assertion.
Expert examination of the soil taken from the Deer Lake irrigated Orchards proves it to be saturated with the properties which when they undergo the chemical changes caused by the introduction of water produce abundant plant food. The possibilities of volcanic ash soil, such as that possessed by this company, to produce plant life and sustain itself without wearing out is no longer a problem. Scientific methods of orcharding which are being employed by this company will produce definite results. The experience of fruit growers in other parts of this state under similar conditions to those at Deer Lake will be their experience.
The element of chance and the caprice of nature are no longer stumbling blocks to the farmer who is equipped with the knowledge) necessary to do intensive farming. The quantity, quality, size and color of the products are determined in advance by the scientific use of water on volcanic ash soil.
FORT RUSSELL NEWS
Indications point to an early adjustment of the street car situation, for which we are all glad. Never in the history of the army has such an undertaking been handled by enlisted men such a business-like manner. The Progressive Club deserves much by way of appreciation for this.
Many soldiers will no doubt take advantage of the schedule to Denver over the new C. & S. R. R., which has just been put into operation.
Our cars are to the ground trying to get a line on some of the forthcoming social events. Certainly things will pick up soon. We are told that Troop I will in the near future give the boys some pointers on a real classy dance and reception. It goes without saying that this troop knows a thing or two and will "go some" when it starts.
Corporal Lucas of the band has just received a very fine special made bass. He is proud, justly so. The instrument represents the skill of the foremost makers of brass instruments and will enable Mr. Lucas to add to his already fine reputation as a performer.
The sudden death of Trumpter Lawrence is a sad blow to the entire cavalry garrison, the deceased being well and favorably known.
It is rumored that our friend, Sergeant Loonard, will shortly give up his single cousedness and — —, a vacancy upon to stall old Boston town.
Business seems unusually brisk with Sergeant Slanter, he claims splendid patronage with lots to do.
Rumor has it that Sergeant Majors Dean and Brown are aspirants for something better. This is, indeed, commendable of these capable men, but their removal from their present positions would work a serious hardship upon the headquarter's force.
The past few days have wrought many changes in the non-commissioned ranks. There's a reason.
Arrangements are being made for the appearance of the Ninth cavalry band at the Capitol Avenue theater. It is understood that in addition to the band music the chief musician is rehearsing a chorus of 40 voices to appear as an added attraction. Miss Mae Smith of the New England Conservatory will also appear as soprano, with band accompaniment.
We bear that the cavalry football team is negotiating for a game in Denver to be played in the near future. Bring back the bacon, boys.
NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST
Splendid fervor marked the morning services at Zion last Sunday morning. The pastor preached on "Christian Duty," from the 12th chapter of the Romans. From the response on the part of the people the effort was a helpful message. At the evening service the first of the series from the "Temptation of Jesus" was delivered. The subject, "Divine Power: How Shall I Use It?" Tomorrow evening the next subject, "Divine Promises: How Shall I Accept and Apply Them?" The public is invited to be present.
The Sunday school officers are now lining up for a great Sunday school rally to be held this fall, in which the attempt will be made to raise the attendance to 400. The whole church is expected to take part in this worthy movement.
The doll contest is now on and a number of ladies are going forth determined that that beautiful doll will be theirs. Each has promised that the one who wins will have to "hustle."
The doll is now on exhibition at the drug store of Tuttle & Metzner, at the corner of Twenty-sixth and Welton streets. Look for the cut and announcement elsewhere in this issue.
Madam E. Azalla Hackley, who has so often delighted Denver audiences, will render her RETIRING SONG RECITAL AND VOCAL DEMONSTRATION at Zion on the 4th of December. Full announcements will be made later. As this is to be Madam Hackley's last appearance, no one will miss the opportunity.
DENVER PERSONAL MENTION
THE BILL OF EXCEPTIONS IN THE HARRIS CASE WILL BE FILED SOON.
Judge Lyman J. Henry of Pueblo attorney in the Robert Harris cases, was in the city several days this week and brought with him the bill of exceptions in the case, a voluminous document which will make 500 or 600 typewritten pages. Judge Henry went over the matters and things contained in the bill of exceptions with Lawyer Townsend, preparatory to filing the same in the Supreme court.
COLORED CANDIDATE FOR COMMISSIONER.
The whole of the colored people of Colorado and the friends of L. L. James in particular will be interested in learning of his candidacy for member of the board of commissioners which Pueblo will have as a result of its adoption of a commission form of government. There are five commissioners to be elected. There are 60 candidates and among them L. L. James. He is a man ripe in years and experience. Attorney W. E. Townsend of this city has been asked to make speeches in his behalf.
FOOTBALL BOYS OF DENVER.
I notice in the past week that the Y. M. C. B. football boys are trying to get together in a more business-like way and 't is to be hoped that they will derive more interest from their meetings and make a larger impression on the members of the organization. It is too bad that the young men seem so backward, as they had the honor of being among the four colored teams that have their pictures in the Spalding 1911 Football Guide, as being clever boys playing the game last year, and it is to be hoped that they will be able to do the same work over this year as they did last year. Hoop-er-up boys.
AVERY AND HART.
The clever team of Avery and Hart is taking the East by storm in their new act, called the "Two Hopes." They are playing the Keith & Proctor circuit for ten weeks and then they will come out on the Orpheum, taking Denver en route. They are singing the latest songs and their act is reported to be A1.
The news comes that on Nov. 1 the colored janitors in the Cooper build-
Up to this time the estate of Mollie Nichols, which was willed to Shorter church, has benefited it in cash $136.40. The amount has reached the church treasury and was reported last Sunday.
L. W. Johnson, a Kansas City attorney, has been in the city this week on business.
Jas. Abernathy has gone to Tennessee to visit with his mother. He left Wednesday and will be gone a month.
Miss Eva Jones left the city this week for Oakland, Calif., where she joins her mother and sister. It is expected that it will benefit her health.

A GREAT MAN HAS FALLEN IN ISRAEL.
The death of Bishop Handy in Baltimore last week was one of the events concerning which the whole race is interested. For several years the physical weakness of the bishop was so great that he has been unable to attend to the duties of his office, yet his rise to greatness from obscurity and his wonderful mental powers and his work for the connection made him still a man marked among his fellows. He was at one time presiding elder over this Episcopal district. Death occurred in Baltimore.
THE ALLIANCE NOTES.

SCOTT'S M. E. CHURCH NOTES.
Twenty-sixth and Clarkson Streets.
Dr. M. C. B. Mason, the matchless orator, will deliver his famous lecture on "Africa in America and Africa Beyond the Seas," Friday evening, November 10th, at the People's Presbyterian church for the benefit of Scott's. Dr. Mason has an international reputation. He appears before more white audiences than any member of the race. He has the oversight of the visitation of more than 125 annual conferences in the Methodist Episcopal church.
The John Stewart Celebration committee is especially commended for the very interesting program rendered Sunday evening to a large and appreciative audience. The committee were of the following members: W. S. Evans, John F. Thomas, Mesdames Anna McPherson, Anna B. Dawson, Ada Castry, J. D. Williams. Mrs. Dawson made an excellent address upon the work of the early white missionary in the South among our race. W. S. Evans made a helpful address upon Missions. The little Juniors contributed largely to the success of the program by their dialogues and speeches. A handsome collection for Home Missions and Church Extension was taken. Songs composed for the occasion were sung by the choir.
Miss Irma Anthony left this week for St. Louis, Mo., where she goes to attend the summer high school. She will be missed in Scott's as she was a younfli lady with high literary taste.
Mr. E. Lewis left this week for Oakland, Calif. Mr. Lewis is taking his initial run to this city since the discontinuance of the private car which he had charge.
Bishop I. B. Scott will lecture in Christ Methodist Episcopal church for the benefit of Scott's and also for the work in Africa. Our church is named in honor of Bishop Scott.
The special series of sermons begin some time ago will be continued upon the Book of Romans. The night sermons will be taken from the Old Testament. The church is prospering at this period of its history more than at any other time. It comes from having peace with the rank and file of the membership. We are enjoying that sweet peace that comes down from above.
The pastor and wife are very grateful to Mr. and Mrs. F. D. McPherson for a large donation of sweets for the winter. The high cost of living has made a large hole in the pastor's income and surprises like these are always appreciated.
Mrs. Jennie Pierson has been on the sick list. She is much improved at this writing.
Mrs. Mae Dow deposited for membership with Scott's Sunday. Still
---
they are joining. This is a homelike church. Everybody who enters the doors are made to feel welcome. "Come thou with us and we will do thee good." Still there are other M. E.'s in the city who ought to come and join us.
Mrs. Ella Carter, who recently joined the curch is much improved at this writing. She has been very sick for the past two weeks.
We wish to thank all who contributed so liberally for the John Stewart Celebration. A beautiful certificate of honor will be awarded to each individual who contributed a dollar for this fund.
The Ladies' Aid Society had a very harmonious meeting last Thursday. Great preparations are being made for the Thanksgiving dinner. Mrs. Anna McPherson, with her faithful co-workers, is pushing things to the front. The church on the inside is to be made a thing of beauty when this bazaar is over.
Timely advice given Mrs. C. Willoughby of Marengo, Wis. (R. No. 1), prevented a dreadful tragedy and saved two lives. Doctors hau said her frightful cough was a "consumption" cough and could do little to help her. After many remedies failed, her aunt urged her to take Dr. King's New Discovery. "I have been using it for some time," she wrote, "and the awful cough has almost gone. It also saved my little boy when taken with a severe bronchial trouble." This matchless medicine has no equal for throat and lung troubles. Price 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all druggists.

AIM OF THE ADVERTISER.
Essential Elements In the Art of Getting Results.
By ALBON LEWIS HOLSEY.
One reason why so many advertisers are frequently disappointed in returns from their advertising is that they do not select their media with due regard to their capacity for reaching the class of readers that would be interested in their proposition.
Every paper reaches a different class of persons, who are interested and guided largely by the editorial policy of the paper.
In view of this condition, each advertiser should carefully acquaint himself with the possibilities of a paper before spending his money for its advertising space.
The progressive manager of every good paper is always glad to go over in detail the facts about his circulation and will even suggest the best methods for getting actual returns from his paper, since he is in constant and intimate touch with his readers. When our merchants begin to weigh carefully the merits of each paper for bringing results we shall see a better day for business economy along all lines.

THE DEATH OF JUSTICE HARLAN
One by one the friends of the Negro in the beginning of his citizenship are gathered to their rest. Last week Justice Harlan, the one man on the Supreme Bench, who has consistently maintained that the Supreme court should put the common sense interpretation on the war amendments, passed away.
The decisions he has participated in have given him fame, but it is as a dissenter, the giver of minority opinions, that his unprecedented standing as a great jurist lies. No cause has been too lowly for him to be just. The Negro is only one of the many beneficiaries of this great man's works. Now that he is gone we beg the privilege of laying a flower upon his bier. While we weep, our hearts are filled up with gratitude to our Maker that He has granted us the inestimable boon of having such a man as our friend.
From time to time the good sense of the American people in dealing with the Negro problem, suffers temporary paralysis, and usually it will be found that from some angle the question of "Social Equality" has been thrust into the discussion. When a white person is found big enough to be just to our race, he is solemnly warned that justice is but the fore runner of social equality and that in termarriage is the inevitable consequence.
Notwithstanding the sections of this country which show the greatest strife between the races have the most miscegenation, we realize that such an appeal to race purity is a powerful argument, almost universally sufficient to stop reason and enthrone prejudice. It seems to be in comprehensible to white people that there is in Negroes the same desire for race purity that they have. The amount of miscegenation practiced lawfully in this country between blacks and whites is very small, smaller than the percentage of any two races living together in one country at any time in the world's history. So the cry of social equality with its remote possibility of a black helpmeet should not throttle justice, and turn otherwise reasonable people into palliators and perpetrators of every kind of inhumanity against black people.
Such panicky actions are entirely out of keeping with the usual sober judgment white people display. They make us feel that an excuse is sought for persecution. The social equality which means entry into the homes, intermarriage, and the like, is not what colored people are seeking. The few daring spirits who have leaped the barriers of race are a negligible quantity. The great mass of us want to maintain our race identity. We are as far from having intermarriage as an aspiration as the East is from the West. To be treated with every courtesy when our deportment deserves it is the social equality we seek. To be allowed to eat when we are hungry seems to us simply humanity. If to white people that inevitably means intermarriage, then they acknowledge charms in us superior to what we see in ourselves.
From the foregoing we hope we have made clear our belief that colored people and white are not in agreement as to what "Social Equality" means. Possibly a few idealists, like Prof. DuBois, want the horizon and heaven to be their limitations, but most of us are of the earth earthy and are desirous of receiving back from our neighbors only such good treatment as our actions deserve. We do not want our natural appetites for food, for shelter, for amusement, and for service, to be twisted into a predeliction for intermarriage.
The Statesman believes that Negroes give the highest possible expression to their belief in the justice of white people when they say that they expect good citizenship to secure for them immunity from oppression.
It believes that white people give the poorest evidence of their desire to be just when they refuse to deserving black people the reward which they are quick to give to their own people of similar merit.
HEAVEN HELP THE BLACK WORKMAN.
The Statesman believes that it is the duty of Negroes to give all their support to those members of the race who have found employment with the Harriman lines as strikebreakers. There is some merit in the labor union, but when it is so prejudiced that it permits only whites to join, barring Negroes by constitutional enactment, we are not so foolish that we wish it success. When it goes further, and as the trainmen have

railroad service is doomed to starvation
if the union wins. He might as
well die fighting for the chance to
work as to die any other way. It
makes no difference that it is the
trainmen who now bar us and that it
shopmen who are on a strike. The
victory of the shopmen will mean the
elimination of the black worker there
just as it has been in the train service.
We regret that violence has already occurred between Negroes and strikers, but in the name of justice and for our own right to live we hope the strikebreakers may make good. Then when union labor has recognized the right of the black workman to live and is willing to protect him as it now protects the white laborer, we will strip off our race feeling and consider unionism on its merits.

It will be a pleasure to the many friends he has in the city to know that some of the members of Central are desirous of securing the return of Rev. John E.

Up to this writing the matter has not taken form, and this report as given is not official. We report it to show the desire of the church to secure the best possible minister.

TOILET PREPARATIONS
If the "Return of the Show Girls," staged Thursday night at East Turner hall for the benefit of the Lincoln Douglass Sanatorium, had served no other purpose than to introduce to Denver Earl Danser, a youth from Houston, Texas, who can sing like a nightingale, it would have still been worth while. But when it went further and presented several acts and scenes and songs worth while, praise must be given unstintedly to the manager, Mrs. Edith Scott. Of course like amateur productions ther were delays, but the audience was recompensed by seeing something when things did start. Little Orey Marshall sang "Put Your Arms Around Me" in such style as would have done credit to a professional and got the first shower of money. Bonita Scott teamed with him pleasingly.
Six numbers were presented by the Show Girls, ending with the scene at West Brothers. The girls were Leah Hamilton, Marguerite Wilson. Genevieve Marks, Fay Allen, Lena Rollins, Amy Matthews, Edith Scott. In point of ensemble and individual excellence this production vies with any eDner has ever had, considering the small number participating. Young Mr. Danser got a shower of coin of goodly proportions. Mrs. Fay Allen got another. On the whole the show was too good to mis sand it is well that a fair crowd braved the first winter blow and saw it. In the last scene was displayed the hats ibanded by Mrs. Esther Morris. They made the scene especially interesting to ladies.
The Palmer hotel has the following guests for the week; J. C. Tucker, G. I. Jackson, W. H. Mallory and Cora E. Jackson of Chicago; L. E. Guest of St. Louis, Mrs. Jas. Hackman of Cheyenne, D. Davis and S. H. Burnett of Kansas City.

Leon Pryor has been fortunate in securing the agency of the Rogers Brothers silver in Denver. The reputation of Rogers' silver is too well known for comment to be necessary on the quality of the goods. The company has empowered Mr. Pryor to offer a set of spoons sold at $1.95 and to give as a premium to buyers a kitchen set valued at $2.50. This is a most extraordinary offer and shows that the company values the service of Mr. Pryor. They give him a salary and also a commission on goods sold. He has made Denver his home for ten years and is especially well known through the part in local theatricals. He will canvass the city.

A surprise birthday party in honor of Mr. J. J. Bates was given by his most beloved wife, Mrs. J. J. Bates, at their home, 2910 Glenarm Place, last Monday evening. The house was decorated most beautifully with carvations and smilax. There were games and a delightful time was had. The guests were: Mrs. Al Kerr, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Wilson, Mr. William Sanders, Mr. Dick Harris, Frank Stevens, Mr. S. Helems and Miss Martha Johnson, the Misses Lovie, Emma, Mattie, Criseva, Francis and Grace Helems, Mrs. T. J. Trusty, Mrs. J. Hollie, Mrs. Jestine Halliday.
The recital of Madam Anita Patti Brown at the People's church Monday night was well attended. Those who heard this charming soprano on her former appearance say she was even better this time. At any event, it may be said of her that for power in any part of the scale she is an exceptional artist. Her renditions of popular airs was enjoyed by the most people. In the more difficult classics, she showed her technique and range, and was hailed with applause, "queen of song." The recitation by Miss Cortelia Reynolds and piano solo by Miss Rhodie Anderson were delightful additions to the chorus music which completed the program.

NEGROES HAVE MERIT REPORT TO THE CONTRARY NOT- WITHSTANDING.
The general lack of knowledge of the ability of the colored physicians of Denver to perform surgical work is most difficult to meet for the reason that the ethics of the medical profession absolutely bar the advertising of the merits of a doctor in any particular case. For instance, it is not professional for a doctor to say himself, and is equally embarrassing to the conscientious physician to have said of him that in the case of Mr. So and So he effected a cure. The Statesman recognizes these professional considerations and yet wishes to give to our colored doctors such reputas as is justly thelrs. It is not fair that the fame of white practitioners alone should be exalted.
Therefore from time to time with out the use of names of either patient or doctor, we shall tell of success. It is in the highest degree creditable that a colored physician recently was one of the two doctors bearing the major responsibility for a capital operation that was of doubtful success. For three hours three labored on the surgical work and the speedy recovery of the patient is glory enough for the colored physician.
The king's orders to correspondents of the Dallas (Tex) Express are the following: Do not write when you have nothing to say. Take subscriptions for $1 from September to Nov. 1. Send no matter to be paid for, but send the money with it. Stop silly writing. This is the ipse dixit of Editor W. E. King of the Dallas Express. It means what it says, for it is the king's decree.

ADVISES RESPECT FOR LAW.
There is but One Path to Peace, Says President Scarborough.
In his speech at the universal peace congress recently held in London President W. S. Scarborough of Wilberforce (O.) university said: The fact that the wide world is awakening to the dangers confronting society at large is a good sign. We are sure that the weapons of good will eventually be more potential than those of evil in adjusting the Negro question in the states. There must be an uprising of fearless men of all races—men who see the right and dare to do it in averting trouble and discountenancing anything that panders to race prejudice; men who will preach untiringly and unceasingly the gospel of the common brotherhood of man; who will work for legislation that will render equal justice to all; who will unite in stifling crime, helping the fallen and guarding the youth; who will plead for that general exercise of Christian fellowship that will lead to confidence in and respect for self and others.
The Negro is needed in the development of America. He is native to its customs, its religion and its laws; has virtues as well as vices. He has given his blood in its defense, and it owes him a chance. It becomes a matter of right and duty that both north and south should unite actively in mutual co-operation with the race for law and order, for peace and fraternity, for right and justice. There is but one path to peace and the final adjustment of this question.
And that is to use the law for the protection and punishment of white and black citizens alike, to practice the true Christianity that is preached and to leave the door of hope open to the Negro as to any other people. This work will devolve upon godly preachers, self sacrificing, intelligent teachers, devoted philanthropists and wide awake, earnest students of sociology, and it is the mission of the higher institutions of learning for the Negro in the United States to raise up, educate and inspire the coming generations of the race to assist in the consummation of this purpose.

Wide Interest In It Among Afro-Americans.

Idea of Ira T. Bryant, Secretary of Sunday School Union, is to Build Up First Class Printery in Nashville and Book Store in Philadelphia to Reduce Debt.
By GEORGE FRANCIS KING.
Knoxville, Tenn.—For several years the printing department of the A. M. E. church at Philadelphia has been a topic discussed by thousands of members of this influential denomination for racial uplift. From Maine to Florida and every section of the country, because the liabilities of this department have been heavy for years and the indebtedness is authoritatively asserted to exceed $20,000, remedies for the present financial ills are being advanced. The publishing house at Philadelphia will be a potent factor at the quadrennial conference of the church in Kansas City next May.
Ira T. Bryant, secretary of the Sunday School union of the church, a man of ripe business experience and possessing a peculiar ability, assuring of success in managing large movements, has made the department of Sunday union of his church an unprecedented success. Four years ago at the general conference in Norfolk, Va., he was elected secretary of this department, and he has become the cynosure of the eyes of laity and clergy of his denomination. Contrasting his success with the state of affairs of the printery in Philadelphia, which is said to be heavily in debt and has been so for many years, there has been created a tidal wave for the merging of both houses with the printing of the church being done in Nashville, Tenn., where the printing establishment of the Sunday School union is located. This plan has been discussed at all the conferences by practical and successful men, who were considering the pertinent feature of the next quadrennial conference of the church. The conferences that will be held this winter will, as others have done, send men who are greatly interested in conserving the best interests of the general church and making the publishing affairs of the connection a success, as have been the achievements of Mr. Bryant, who has given his church and the race the only Negro house making its own type and borders. It is now being claimed all over the connection that under the conditions of the A. M. E. church or any other similar movement for the uplift of the Afro-American folk it is absurd to attempt to create a tangible movement producing sufficient revenue to make the proposition a success anywhere except below Mason and Dixon's line.
An official in the church in discussing combining both plants under a single management said in part: "A single management of our two houses simply means that the work will be so divided that best results will be obtainable. A single management for the two houses would mean that all work the book concern could not handle would be sent to Nashville, where our own boys and girls are employed. Then there is a class of work, such as calendar making and fine cut work, etc. that could be got out to better advantage in Philadelphia.
The plans are being discussed favorably in all parts of the connection. Professor J. M. Avery, a prominent layman and assistant manager of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident association in Durham, which has had phenomenal success due to the integrity of the officers and their ability to manage large undertakings and which is the greatest Negro insurance company in the world, says: "Why not accept Bryant's proposition to build up in Philadelphia a first class bookstore and in Nashville a first class printery under one management? Some may say that this would be a mere experiment, but most all other denominations are operating on a similar basis and succeeding. Then, too. Bryant, a practical man, is a man who knows his business and has more than fulfilled every promise made in the past. He has run the union without the children's day money, has installed and paid for over $10,000 worth of improved machinery, has given us the best literature we have ever had in the history of the church, and, on the whole, he has done more than his friends ever dreamed he was capable of doing."
Professor Inman E. Page as Educator.
Professor Inman E. Page, whose official connection with the University For Colored Youths at Langston, Okla., extends over thirteen years, is one of the best known educators of the race.
Mr. Page is a graduate of Brown university, Providence, R. I. He was for many years president of Lincoln institute, Jefferson City, Mo. The school at Langston owned no property when Professor Page took charge, but under his able management it now has a property valuation of hundreds of thousands and a government enrolment plot worth over $100,000. The enrollment of students for the year 1010-11 was 673.

My Dear Madam Perkins:—
Your treatment has done all for me
that you said it would do. When I
paid my first visit to you when in
Philadelphia last January, my hair
was coming out by the combs full.
My scalp was full of dandruff or
scurf, as you explained it to me. Now
my scalp is clean and pliable, and
my hair has grown several inches
longer. It has so changed that I
scarcely recognize it as my own hair. All of this is owing to having heard of the wonderful Madam Perkins, and I pray that God's blessing will ever rest upon you and the good work which you execute so justly and conscientiously to all. Kindly find enclosed order for another supply. Thanking you and hoping you are well, I am.
Very sincerely,

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,

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
Life in the twenty-first century. What will it be like? In 1811 we were traveiling in stage coaches and sailing ships,ighting the great wars with cud-booking muzzle loaders and reading by candle lights, and the most of us, the Negroes, were bound down in slavery. But today everything has changed. We are now filitting about in airships, express trains, ocean liners, motor cars and today, in this county, there is no more slavery. We do our fighting with machine guns and automatics when in time of war. We can talk to one another a thousand miles away and the world at night seems one big mass of sunlight which means plenty of electricity. In another hundred years I wonder will the present astonishing rate of material progress be maintained, or have we neared the limit of possible achievement? Will human nature change in accordance with the shift of the conditions on will it remain the same curious, perplexing, lovable, fascinating thing? The world's future is what is worrying so many people today. Some people think that we are going back, but if I see straight there is nothing more beautiful than world and its people as it stands today. And so far as the times going back, they might be in some instances, such as dress and a lot of other tomtooolery, but otherwise there has never been so much progress in the modern world, and old worlds, of thousands of years ago, so far advanced as the world is today, and in another century the black man will be on the same equality with the white man, so lets prepare those that are just born to be in readiness for the great cause.

ROYAL DUKE AT THE R. M. A. CLUB.
This fall and winter is going to be somewhat out of the ordinary at the big R. M. A. Club and Royal Duke, the famous mixer, is getting together with a new line of moisters and says look him over.
BATTLING THOMPSON AND KID ROY BROWN.
The two husky, dusky boxers of this city, Battling Thompson and Kid Roy Brown, have been matched to box ten rounds the 25th of this month at El Jebel Temple. This will be their second meeting and there is liable to be something doing as both of the boys are in hard training and Kid Brown says that he going to make the Battler fight all he knows how. Of course the Battler got the decision over Kid Brown in their last meeting but I am afraid that he will have to put up a harder game than he did before if he wants to come out victorious. Watch next week for the fight by rounds.
ST. PAUL'S NEW COLORED THEATER.
In the last three years the colored population of St. Paul, Minn., has increased 4,000 and now the business men of the twin city are contemplating a nice little $10,000 theater and it's be a surety it will be the means of making St. Paul a great city for the people in the profession.
BASEBALL SEASON CLOSES SOON
Did you ever hear so much dope about baseball in all of your life as you have heard in the past few days? Really it is amusing to see how enthused people can become over a little game of ball. Will, I guess I am as big a fool as the rest of them when it comes to seeing and hearing a good baseball game or story and the only thing that hurts me is to think of this city not having a first-class colored ball team. Of course the big white teams are the topics of today but at that some of the big colored teams that play in the East and South are receiving their share as artists from the dust, and it is to be hoped that next year we will have a team of our own to brag about right here in Denver. Oh, you dusters.
FRED McKIMM, PIANIST.
One of the cleverest piano players of the East, Mr. Fred McKimm, will be in the city in the near future at the Pantages theater, playing all there is in ragtime.
JOE JEANNETTE GETS AN OFFER.
The management of the somewhat crestfallen white hope, Mr. Carl Morris, has offered Joe Jeannette, the clever big negro boxer, a salary of $500 per month to take Morris in charge for a period of not less than six months and Jeannette, it is thought, will accept the offer as this looks to be some pretty soft money.
RUBE FOSTER, THE GREAT NE-
GRO PITCHER.
One of the greatest colored ball players the world has ever known, Mr. Rube Foster, manager and pitcher for the Chicago Leland Giants, it is rumored, has signed a contract to star in a neat little sporty colored sketch, entitled the "Base Burner." Rube and company will open in New York City at the colored
Lincoln theater in the near future and may come West.
THE PAST PRIZE FIGHTERS.
Do the present-day ring artists come up to the standing with those that have passed away, such as Joe Gans, Peter Jackson, George Dixon and a great many others that a few years ago were unbeatable. Well we can say this much, that there never was a man in all the world that could stand the gaff the same as old Peter Jackson, who was known the world over, in his day, as the greatest trial horse of them all. Little George Dixon did more actual fighting than any other man in the world, and Joe Gans was considered to be the cleverest man in the ring. In all of the fights he showed nothing but cleverness. And today we are in doubt about men being as clever as those that have passed away. Jack Johnson, Joe Jeannette and Langford are the best among the colored, while Jim Flynn is the only white heavy, and Ad Wolgast, Packy McFarland and a few more are holding down the lightweight and featherweight classes.
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.
A few years ago this we all know:
We had some men who really could
show,
Not saying that they couldn't be
shown,
But you know that they were all from
home.
Bob Cole and Ernest Hogan, two
comedians;
Bert Williams, of course, leads the
band,
As these others are all under sand.
But will we ever have any more
Clever men like those gone on before?
To that I couldn't answer and be
sure,
But opportunity knocks at your door.

SELECT SOCIETY FOR RESEARCH
NEW LIGHT ON CLD SUBJECTS.
Organization Made Up of Well Informed Students Has For Its Object the Preservation of the Literary Works of Afro-Americans Written and Published Centuries Age.
BY N. BARNETT DODSON.
Yonkers, N. Y.-Several months ago
Arthur Schomburg of New York city
and J. E. Bruce of Yonkers discussed
at the latter's residence, in Yonkers,
the feasibility of establishing a society
with a limited membership for the purpose
of gathering information from books and through correspondence of historical value to the Negro race. Their ideas agreed, and a number of men known to be interested in work of this character were invited to attend a meeting in Yonkers not long ago, at which time the plans of Messrs. Schomburg and Bruce were outlined and cordially approved by those present, and the society was organized. The name Negro Society For Historical Research was adopted and a full complement of officers was elected as follows: John E. Bruce, president; A. A. Schomburg, secretary-treasurer; Professor W. W. Weekes, musical director; David B. Fulton, librarian; W. E. Braxton, art director. Membership in the society is limited to twenty active members, and the entrance fee is $10, with a monthly tax of 25 cents.
The society purposes to gather through its correspondents in the United States and foreign countries books, pamphlets and valuable manuscripts written by Negroes and when opportunity presents to reprint such books or pamphlets now out of print and coming into possession which have any historical value or which will be useful for reference. These it will endeavor to dispose of to members of the race who are interested in knowing what Negroes who wrote books fifty or a hundred years ago had to say and how they said it.
The society is also making a collection of pictures, old wood cuts, photographs of Negroes here and abroad. But this feature of its work will be attended with some difficulty, as there are few pictures of noted Negroes of the early period in this country. It recently came into possession of a splendid steel engraving of Nat Turner, the Virginian Negro who headed and led an insurrection in that state in 1833, which it contemplates reproducing and disposing of for the purpose of adding to its book fund. The books thus far gathered by Messrs. Schomburg and Bruce embrace over 150 titles. A few of the more important ones are here given:
"Poems of Phyllis Wheatley," 173, first edition: "Poems of Phillis Wheatley," revised edition; "Letters of Phillis Wheatley," of which only 100 copies were published; "Anglo-African Magezine," vol. 1, 1859; "The Greatness of Christ," "Africa and America," Alex. Crummell; "West Africa Before Europe," E. A. Blyden, L.L. History of Black Galaxi, Colonel J. T. Clare, Clarence, W. Wells Brown; "Behind the Scenes," Mrs E. Kekley; "Light and Truth," R. L. Lewis, Boston, 1840.
"The Color of Solomon," Bishop B. T. Tanner; "Biography," Major M. R. Delany; "Poeses of Islay Walden," blind poet of North Carolina, 1875; "Poeses of Frances Ellen Watkins," Harper; Dr. Robert J. Love; "The National Profer," Hon. J. C. Smith; "The Profit Sharing," Hon. J. C. Smith; "The Nations From a New Point of View," Rev. Harvey Johnson; "The Rock of Wisdom" (sermons), N. C. W. Cannon, 1820; "Race Adjustment," Kelly Miller, Esq.; "Biographical Sketches of Persons of Color," Miss A. Mott; "Around the World With Poeses of Islay," Shadow of Light," M. W.

AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH NOTES
Rev. Dr. Beckett of New York Urged For Bishopric.
With the close of summer months interest has begun to heighten in the general conference of the A. M. E. church, which meets in Kansas City next May.
Besides the consideration of men
ures concerning the interests of the church, several bishops may be elected, two-Bishops Lampton and Grant-having died within the past two years. Among the many prominently mentioned in connection with the episcopacy is Rev. Dr. W. W. Beckett, who is completing his first quadrennial as secretary and treasurer of the Parent Home and Foreign missionary society of the denomination, with headquarters at 61 Bible House, New York. During his incumbency Dr. Beckett has made friends the country over, and many have assumed that they will support any movement which means the bestowal of higher honors. Dr. Beckett was elected at the last general conference by a good majority, and that without making any combinations. He has recently made an extended trip visiting annual conferences.
ECHOES OF THE LOTT CAREY MISSIONARY CONVENTION.
President Brown and Other Officials Render Encouraging Reports.
Wilmington, N. C.-The fifteenth annual meeting of the Lott Carey Baptist foreign missionary convention, held in this city, was the most successful in every way of any held in previous years. There were over 300 delegates in attendance and a large number of prominent visitors from other successful organizations of the denomination. One of the pertinent features of the convention was the discussion of plans looking toward the enlarging of its foreign work by co-operating with the New England Baptist missionary convention.
President C. S. Brown in his annual address covered every phase of the work.
"My honest conviction," said he, "after much study is that Liberia should be made the radiating point for all the work attempted on the continent by the colored Baptists of America, first, because our missionaries there are making substantial headway and securing standing and recognition. I desire to urge the recommendation made a year ago that a competent commission be sent over to inspect the field, confer with the missionaries as to their work and to select and report on suitable places for the founding of permanent central stations. I am in favor of this convention uniting with the New England Baptist missionary convention."
Rev. Dr. W. M. Alexander, corresponding secretary, in concluding his annual report said:
"Lynching and burning colored men charged with crime are not confined to the southern states. In this section it is on the decrease, and the press does not report so many heinous crimes committed by colored men as an excuse for lynching as it did almost daily in previous years.
"The most shameful and degrading press reports of lynching and burning during this year occurred in the state of Pennsylvania."
Concord to Hold Bible Institute.
Rev. Dr. S. N. Voss, the well known lecturer and Bibliist, has been engaged by the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss, pastor of the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn, to deliver a series of lectures for the benefit of Sunday school teachers and other religious workers in Brooklyn and vicinity. The Bible institute, as it is to be known, will be held under the auspices of the officials of the church and Sunday school for one week, beginning on Monday, Oct. 16.
BETHANY BAPTIST CHURCH.
Much Progress Made Under Pastorate of Rev. Dr. Holland Powell.
The Bethany Baptist church in Brooklyn has recently renovated its church edifice at a cost of $12,000. Among the new improvements are stained glass windows, electric lights and metal cellings. Rev. Dr. Holland Powell, who has been the pastor of the church for about four years, is a graduate of Wayland seminary, now Virginia Union university. He has built up the membership of the church substantially and also put it upon a firm financial footing.
The cornerstone for the new basement to the church was laid by Grand Master Henry A. Spencer of the grand lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, assisted by the following grand officers: Deputy Grand Master William O. Payne and S. G. W. William F. Abbott.
The cornerstone address was delivered by the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss, pastor of the Concord Baptist church, whose subject was "Zion's Cornerstone Symbolic." He said in part: To advance is godly, to stand still treason, and not to go forward would put us back centuries. Without religion we are not men, but we are men wisely, for that people who lifts God shall be prosperous, and that people who does not serve God shall be cursed. Cornerstones date back to the prophets and apostolic fathers, back to the time when the morning stars sang together and God was preparing to establish the Christian church, against which the gates of hell shall not prevail. The cornerstone is hospitable between heaven and earth back into the ages of the past and looks forward to the centuries of the future.
Every man and woman in Brooklyn combined cannot stop the progress of the church of God. There must be unity of purpose. One church must not stand in the way of another, must not mum-pull together. The church holds in her mercy for the merciless, food for the hungry, water for the thirst and love for the downcast and oppressed. The church of God was shut up in the ark only eight strong, and today its influence is sweeping, like an ocean wave, everything before it. The church of God is when this world is on fire and when prin-ipalities and kingdoms shall have crumbed and fallen.
