The Negroes of Colorado Should Appeal the Harris Case State Historian & Natural History Society TRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN CHEYENNE MUSICIAN MAKES DEBUT Twenty-Third Year ```markdown ``` The accompanying clipping is from the Cheyenne Leader and speaks of Miss Smith, a young lady well known here in Denver and highly esteemed for herself no less than for her musical talent. Our correspondent says in addition: This article concerns one of our girls, Miss Mae Smith, who is deserving of much commendation. Capt. Chas. Young and Prof. Wade Hammond of the 9th Cavalry tendered Miss Smith a benefit recital at Capital theater Sunday, October 29. The famous 9th Cavalry band most easily assisted Miss Smith. Also a chorus of 40 male voices, charmingly led by Mrs. James E. Smith in "Songs of Sorrow." A most appreciative audience greeted Miss Smith, and each number was heartily applauded. Miss Smith is possessed of a rich, sweet soprano voice which was shown to great advantage in, "O, Tho", Divine Redeemer. Miss Smith returns to Boston to resume her studies, and many are the good wishes that attend her by hosts of friends and acquaintances. Miss Smith will give recitals, at Lincoln and Omaha, Neb., Des Moines, Iowa, and other points. May every good attend her, as a young woman deserving and one that her race should feel proud of. Miss Mae Smith who will make her debut before a Cheyenne audience in the Ninth Cavalry concerts at Capitol Avenue theater on Sunday afternoon and evening, deserves a word of introduction before her appearance on the stage. Miss Smith, is the daughter of Mr. Smith, a well-known colored citizen of Cheyenne, and was born and reared here. She was educated in the public schools here and won respect for herself and her ambition. While still a school-girl Miss Smith's unusual voice attracted favorable attention, and it became her wish to cultivate the talent she possessed. While the colored people as a race, are noted for their sweet singing, a few individuals have won distinction in the musical world, two notable exceptions being Black Patti and Blind Tom. After leaving school Miss Smith went to Boston, and entered the conservatory of music where for three years she has been a student. After three years of training her voice, which was promising in her girlhood days has ripened and developed, until her friends predict a bright future for her on the concert stage. On Wednesday evening Mrs. J. M. Carey, wife of Governor Carey, invited about thirty of her friends, among them musicians and singers who are competent critics, to assemble at her home, and Miss Smith was engaged to appear before the select company, and give an hour of singing. Miss Smith and her family are well known to Mrs. Carey and to all old time residents of Cheyenne, and in this manner Mrs. Carey was enabled to assist the young singer in her career. Miss Smith possesses a clear soprano voice peculiarly sympathetic; and she chose simple melodies that touch the heart, to sing for Mrs. Carey's guests. Her manner was quietly self-possessed and unassuming and she played her own accompaniments. Among her selections were "Little Drum." "A Winter Lull laby," ""There, Little Girl, Good Night," "Daisies," and with each number her confidence increased, and her clear voice rang true and sweet. Miss Smith's singing was generously applauded by her audience who were quick to recognise her real talent and give her the encouragement and recognition due for the pleasure of listening to her. At the close of her program, Miss Smith modestly retreated, after receiving just praise she deserved. An informal evening was then enjoyed by the guests, and Mrs. C. L. Hinkle and Mr. Bradley contributed some impromptu vocal and piano numbers, and several selections were played on the victrola, all of which were enjoyed. The evening closed with the serving of delicious refreshments. The gracious introduction which the first lady of our state has given Miss Smith, should be the precedent for a generous patronage of the concerts given by the Ninth Cavalry band for the benefit of the young singer, and it is sincerely hoped that she will receive the encouragement which a full house always gives to a debutante. Miss Smith's voice is beautiful and will be heard with pleasure on Sunday. From here Miss Smith goes back to Boston to continue her studies, and will appear in concert in Denver, Lincoln, Des Moines, Davenport and several other cities en route. IN FINANCIAL CIRCLES. Eureka Co-operative Bank Holds An- dorian Marien and Elaine Offers Rural Meeting and Elects Officers. Boston.-At the annual meeting of the Eureka Co-operative bank of this city gratifying reports were read, which showed the institution to be id a sound and healthy condition. A pertinent feature of the reports was the vast amount of work done by individuals toward securing a large number of new depositors for the bank during the fiscal year. On account of not having sufficient time to give to the duties of his office President George F. Betts refused a renomination. A vote of thanks was extended to Mr. Betts for his faithful services in the administration of the affairs of the bank during the year. Officers were elected as follows: President, Gilbert C. Harris; vice president, Robert G. Smith; secretary-treasurer, David E. Crawford; members of the board of directors, George N. Rainey; chairman; James E. Atus, Dr. L. M. Holmes, Rev. C. A. Ward, G. F. Betts, F. F. Smith, Edward Winston, S. L. Merchant, C. J. Johnson, A. A. Crawford, Stanbury Hoxer, A. G. Watson, G. W. Brown and W. H. Hemingway, Gilbert C. Harris, the new president, is one of the best known business men of the race. As an evidence of his standing among our people he has been the treasurer of the Ebenezer Baptist church, the largest church organization in New England, for many years; also treasurer of Boston lodge of Odd Fellows and treasurer of the National Negro Business league for twelve years. He has handled many thousands of dollars for these organizations with entire satisfaction. That the Eureka Co-operative bank will make rapid strides under his management goes without saying. He was from the first one of the largest depositors in the institution and has constantly said that it was one of the best and safest institutions ever organized in Massachusetts. George N. Rainey, the new chairman of the board of directors, is one of our most energetic and progressive business men and has the reputation of carrying to success everything to which he puts his hand. The entire list of officers presents a set of men worthy of the confidence of the people. The next meeting of the bank will be on Monday, Nov. 6, at which time the public is invited to attend and take out a book and become a member of the foundation of the real forward movement among our people in this city. The doors are open to all races and creeds. Mr. David E. Crawford, the treasurer, is one of the wealthiest colored men in Boston. He owns more modern apartments than any colored man or company of men in Boston. He is a lawyer with a large and lucrative practice and has the confidence of the people. Miss Halsey to Teach in Cincinnati. Much to the regret of the management, Miss Grace Halsey, head worker at the Lincoln Settlement home in Brooklyn, recently resigned to accept the position of instructor of music in the city schools of Cincinnati, O. DENVER. COLORADO. SATURDAY. NOV. 5. 1911 Manuel Is Acquitted On Thursday morning the jury which was deliberating over the fate of James Jerrold Manuel, charged with feloniously killing Rev. A. E. Edwards returned a verdict of not guilty. The case was begun on Monday and was conducted with despatch. Throughout the whole of it the court room was crowded, hundreds standing for lack of room to sit. In point of human interest old inhabitants say that Denver has never known another case like it. The standing of the deceased and the relationship which he bore to his assailant added to the usual importance which murder cases have in the public eye. The two principal witnesses were Mrs. A. E. Edwards and Mr. Manuel, with Mrs. Lamb, mother-in-law of Mr. Manuel, as the one next most important. The story of Mrs. Edwards was substantiated as reported in past mention of this affair. Only one difference was noted, that being that in her testimony this time she admitted that her statement to her husband that detectives had trailed him, was not true, but was told him for the purpose of influencing him to do as she wished him to do. The surprise of the trial came when the defense set forth its case saying that it proposed to prove that Mr. Manuel shot in self-defense. For this purpose it brought out in detail the position of the two men in the room where the shooting occurred, their attitudes toward each other and that Manuel shot after Edwards had rushed at him. In further corroboration of Manuel's lack of intent to kill Edwards, it was shown that he had not shot at him while he was at Manuel's house on the north side. In its argument before the jury the defense dwelt at length upon the nature of Edwards' actions toward Manuel's family and appealed to the jury to give him a verdict such as they would want if similarly situated. The greatest stress was laid upon this point. In his instructions to the jury, Judge Allen gave it considerable latitude so that it was generally expected that a verdict of not guilty would be rendered as did happen. The action of the jury and the opinions generally expressed make clear the imminent danger in which any man stands who offends against family honor. LA JUNTA, COLO. The regular services were held at Hubbard's Chapel. Sunday Rev. K. P. Bond, pastor, preached morning and evening. There will be a program rendered at Hubbard Chapel Sunday, November 5.

There were twenty-eight present and a fine program was rendered after which souvenir cards were passed and each lady requested to draw the likeness of a man and each man to draw a lady. The one drawing the best was to get a prize and the poorest drawer to get a prize also. Mr. Claude Tyler got the prize for the best drawing and Mr. J. W. Winchester got the booby prize. Elaborate five-course luncheon was served. The club meets November 2 with Mrs. Jno. Marshall. Mrs. K. P.

Militant New England Organization Holds Big Meeting In Haverhill. Haverhill, Mass.—The eighth annual meeting of the New England Suffrage league recently held in this city was by far the most interesting and helpful of any in the history of the organization. The delegates were numerous, and all of the speakers seemed to be imbued with new thought, vigor and determination to continue the campaign of sane agitation for justice according to law for the race against the wicked, cowardly and barbarous institution of mob law. The league intends to lay the matter of disfranchisement and jimcrow segregation before congressmen and senators throughout the country and ask that they use their influence with state and national legislators to break down the enormous unconstitutional enactments against the colored citizens of this country. The next steps are work at home in congress and senatorial districts; vote only for such men as pledge to do their duty toward bringing about equal franchise and equal justice, by which all citizens of this government may exercise their God given rights. A pertinent feature of the session was the activity of the women members of the league, many of whom delivered stirring addresses. A strong set of resouitions were adopted condemning the Coatesville (Pa.) lynching and other recent outbreaks of mob violence in which human lives were sacrificed for the sake of the personal gratification of the lawless element in such communities. The election of officers resulted as follows: William M. Trotter, president; vice president at large, Mrs. Cravat Simpson; first vice president, Rev J. L. Davis of Malden, Mass.; second vice president, J. F. Slaughter of Portsmouth, N. H.; third vice president, Rev. S. W. Smith, Providence; recording secretary, E. P. Oliver of Providence; corresponding secretary, Handy Duncan, Haverhill; treasurer, Mr. Joshua Crawford, Boston; chapain, Rev. J. D. Corrothers, Haverhill, Mass.; sergeant at arms, S. T. Gains, Newport, R. I.; executive committee, Rev. W. J. Smith, Fall River, Mass.; Rev. Walter Gay, Hartford, Conn.; Rev. D. S. Klug, New Haven, Conn.; Rev. H. Conway, Worcester, Mass.; William D. Johnson, Winchester, Mass.; J. A. Atus, Brockton, Mass.; Dr. Henry Lewis, Chelsea, Mass.; J. A. Hagan, New Haven, Conn.; Rev. B. W. Swain, Hartford, Conn.; Rev. A. W. Adams, Norwich, Conn.; E. B. Jourdain, statistician, New Bedford, Mass.; Rev. W. A. Lynch, Pittsfield, Mass.; George Clarkson, Pittsfield, Mass.; Rev. C. H. Miller, Haverhill, Mass.; W. T. Ward, Lawrence, Mass.; Mrs. L. A. Nelson, Mary A. Battle, Mrs. V. Trotter, Mine, Parrish and Mrs. Annie Simpson, Boston DENVER PERSONAL MENTION A YOUNG MAN THAT IS A MAN. The young are the hope of the race. Their progress, their uprightness means more, gives more hope not only for themselves, but for us all who come in contact with them, than does the same kind of life in those more mature. At the same time it is a matter of more credit to them that they have early realized that the right way pays best. It is therefore a fact worth news mention that on Monday Royal, the son of Mr. and Mrs. U. G. Brown reached the age of 21, having already established habits which fit him for the larger work of life. His birthday was fittingly remembered by his father by the gift of a gold watch and chain and his mother also remembered him. PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, SUNDAY 3 P.M. ORGAN RE 1.

Royal will be best known as the young man who pumps the organ at Shorter church. His punctuality and regularity at that duty for eight years are marked in their contrast with the indifferent service which most colored boys give. He is more than the power behind the organ, being a member of the church converted by little Lonnie Davis. He is at present employed at the Metropolitan building and at various times has worked in a bicycle store, millinery store and others. He has early learned that a penny saved is a penny made and has an account in the First National Bank. He has also provided for the years to come by taking out a life insurance. Such foresight and thrift as is his, together with the excellencies of his character and the exemplary life he leads, makes his parents justly proud of him. And in a measure the community is interested for the hope of the Negro race rests upon such as he. THE ALLIANCE NOTES. The program of the 29th ultimo of the People's Sunday Alliance was excellent and was well carried out. The paper of Mr. C. W. Buford was full of information which came from considerable hard reading and careful notations. We hope soon to publish it in full and at the end of the series to gather all in pamphlet form if conditions warrant it. The musical numbers of Mrs. Blanch Ross-Lewis and Mr. Chas. A. Clark were well received. The Alliance will meet Nov. 5 at the usual time and place to take up some long delayed business and to hear full report of two important committees and get some important current literature before the members and friends. All are invited. Mr. Townsend will also be present with whatever information is permissible to be given out in the Harris case.

Entered as second class matter at the postoffice in the city of Denver, Colorado. An Unreasonable Position When The Statesman undertook to discuss "Social Equality" two weeks ago, it said among other things: "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 intermarriage is the inevitable consequence." The Denver Chamber of Commerce, an organization which is presumed to represent the business interests of the city, composed of business men who are presumed to think clearly and passionately, has refused admittance to Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, one of our physicians, because he is a Negro, an act which is an apt illustration of the mental aberration we spoke of. That the Chamber refused him after first inviting him to join and accepting him through its board of directors, only makes it seem the more pitiful. The threatened resignation of twenty persons whose southern blood could not submit to a Negro being a fellow member of a commercial organization was ten excuse for a reconsideration and the Doctor's rejection. The Statesman can understand the southerner's point of view. Judge Taney's ante-bellum decision that a Negro has no rights which a white man is bound to respect, has been his abiding faith. For this the southerner permits the wheels of commerce to rust in his section; for this has perpetrated every kind of injustice and oppression with and without law; for this he has gone into all parts of the world as a missionary until the whole of the United States and even Europe reflects his opinions. Believing him to be beyond reason, we see no good of combatting his position. But what shall we say of the great majority of members of the Chamber of Commerce who have been relatively free of the virus of race prejudice? Their complacency is marvelous! It is just this trait in the majority that is the most discouraging. It is more like the mob spirit in which hundreds counterfeit the feelings and actions of the few who lead and think. The Chamber of Commerce need not be reminded that it has not made inquiry into the social life of its members after the manner of the purely social clubs. It has one Japanese member and in the past had one Negro member, who was Dr. P. E. Sprattlin. Its professions as set forth in the daily press are that it is for the uplift of Denver commercially. That it is considered from that point of view is evident in the freedom it has enjoyed from personal aim adversions, even when its course in the freight rate question, has seemed to need explanation. Therefore when a Negro offers to do what he can to make Denver great, the attempt to enlarge upon the social side of the organization so that it outweighs the business purpose it serves, seems to us unfair and farfetched. It is true that the Christian church which weeps mightly over the slain Armenians and persecuted Jews is stony-hearted and silent when whole communities of Negroes are terrorized by armed mobs in the United States. But theirs is sentiment. The Chamber is business. What we cannot see is how hard-headed business men can refuse the offering, small though it be, which the Negro makes on the altar of business, when his gift is attended by no conditions which can reasonably lessen its value. We cannot see how they can permit their organization to seem horrified when a Negro doctor applies, yet suffer no qualms of conscience at the presence of men who have gotten their wealth in immoral ways according to well authenticated report. One ray of light illuminates this situation which otherwise would be gloomy indeed. The evident violence which white people do to reason, do to justice, do to wholesome sentiment, in their endeavor to thrust the Negro further down, is the best kind of evidence that they fear our competition. We have looked upon them as a race occupying a superior position, able to help all the other races and still maintain their lead. STEADY ADVANCE OF Y. M. C. A.

From this small building the work among more than 400 members is conducted, although half that number cannot be crowded into the structure at one time. Despite the inadequacy of the building and equipment the members have organized debating, literary and glee clubs, gymnasium and basketball teams, a band and orchestra, while the boys have formed a club and organized a troop of boy scouts. Besides these organizations, several of the members meet in the small rooms each night and engage in checker contests, the only other form of amusement open to them. During the last few years the building has become too small to accommodate the members, and whenever special programs have been arranged no announcements have been made beforehand, the officers knowing that the rooms would not hold all who would attend. Now the committee of management and leading colored business men of the city are considering a new Y. M. C. A. building which will not limit the colored men's branch in this city and which, they say, will offer unusual possibilities. Nine years ago the branch of the association was first organized for the colored men of Indianapolis. After two years of work it had only seventeen members. Since 1904, however, the association has grown until it now includes one or every seventeen colored young men in the city. The growth has been so rapid during the last few years that every available place about the building has been taken, including the coal shed, which was made into a locker and shower bath room. The growing membership also demanded a gymnasium, and the largest room on the first floor was fitted up for the physical culture work and gymnasium classes. THE BROTHERHOOD OF MAN BISHOP SMITH'S THEME Lewly Nazarine Never Boasted of Racial Superiority, He Says. Toronto.—Among the many able addresses delivered by delegates to the fourth ecumenical conference recently held in Toronto, the one delivered by Bishop C. S. Smith was fraught with a number of very salient points. The bishop's subject was "The Brotherhood of Man." Bishop Smith said in part as follows: I wish to speak of the spirit that should possess the propagandist of the Christian religion as he goes out among the non-Christian races. What is the Christ spirit? What is the Christ idea of the brotherhood of man, his idea as it relates to the commonwealth of mankind? If the propagandist of the Christian religion goes out among the non-Christian races asserting the spirit of race superiority he finds himself at once handicapped. And from my observation in foreign fields I am frank to confess, though I do it regretfully, that, at least in many instances, he is too aware of the race superiority and too little exaltation of life, life and spirit and purpose of the Lord Jesus Christ. Point to a single utterance of the Master wherein he boasted of his racial lineage, wherein he emphasized or laid stress upon the mere incident of race superiority. I say "mere incident" because there are four things for which no man is responsible—of whom he was born, when he was born, where he was born and how he was born, where he was born and how he was born of stressing the idea of the fatherhood of God and the sonship of Christ, but there is a woeful lacking of stressing the brotherhood of man, not as white, black, yellow, red or brown men, but as men. Now, I postulate that if the brotherhood of man is not one of the cardinal and fundamental teachings of the New Testament then the whole scheme of the Christian religion is but a cunningly devised fable, the agony of Calvary the echo of a deceiving dream and the reputed vicious imagination. Jesus said: "If be off with the imagination, Jesus said: "If be off with will draw all men unto me" "All ye are brethren." "Love one another, even as I have loved you." "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." And unless the brotherhood of man is brought into realization here the apocalyptic vision never became a reality—the vision wherein John saw a number that no man could number gathered together out of every tribe and tongue under heaven, and when the inquiry was made who are these? the inquiry was made who are white men, not yellow men, not red men, not brown men—no, but "these are they who have come up through great tribulation and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."

THE STATESMAN—6 GREAT CENTER OF EDUCATION Arkansas Baptist College Opens With Competent Instructors. BRIGHT FUTURE PREDICTED. President Joseph A. Booker Strikes Optimistic Note In Address Opening the Twenty-eighth Scholastic Year at Well Known School In Little Rock. Many Industries Taught. By N. BARNETT DODSON Little Rock, Ark.-The Arkansas Baptist college recently opened its twenty-eighth annual session under very favorable circumstances. Dr. Joseph A. Booker, who is just entering upon his twenty-fifth year as president of the institution, was never more highly encouraged at the beginning of a school year. This was manifested in his opening address and in the announcement of new plans for running the institution another year. Besides many of the old teachers who have returned to resume the work with President Booker, several new officers and teachers from other states are enrolled. Professor M. L. Calloway, a graduate from the science course at M. B. PRESIDENT JOSEPH A. BOOKER. the Knoxville (Tenn.) college, will have charge of all the sciences to be taught. This is the first year that the science department has had a special teacher and a particular chair. Professor Calloway will fit the place well, for he is making science a life study and has done some good postgraduate work at Muskingum university, Muskingum, O. Miss Adilina Saunders will be preceptress this year. She comes from New Haven, Conn., from under the very shadow of Yale university. She has lots of bright ideas not only for housekeeping and for governing and caring for girls in the boarding department, but she has talent for elocution and fine needlework. She will give some extra time to this for the benefit of the girls and others who may desire these two fine arts. Miss May L. Smith of Virginia, recently from Hampton, will have charge of the boarding department and domestic science work. She comes full of Hampton ideas as to work, cleanliness, economy and good order. Miss Grace J. Thompson, who taught literature last year, will teach higher Latin and some literature, while Mr. M. H. Eldridge, one of the best graduates that the institution here ever sent out, will teach Greek and elementary Latin. Besides the foregoing list of college, academic and industrial teachers, the grammar school department will be cared for by Miss S. A. Jordan, eighth grade; Mrs. Bessie R. Ashford, seventh grade; Miss Laura Plinn, sixth grade. Professor J. A. Hibbler, the secretary of the institution, will have charge of the commercial department, and Miss Mattie A. Booker, who is now in the Chicago Musical college, will have charge of the music, as heretofore. During her six weeks' absence her sister, Miss Carrie Isabel Booker, will fill her place. Professor R. Y. Hansen, a product of the institution, will resume the work of higher mathematics, and Professor J. Frank Jones will do the Bible work and history and also have charge of the registration. Mrs. Joseph A. Booker will teach millinery and dressmaking. The theological department will be taken care of by President Joseph A. Booker, Dr. J. P. Robinson and Rev. R. M. Caver, A. M. Already the graduating classes for next spring have begun to file in and along with them many old and new students. The outlook for the institution, therefore, is exceedingly promising. Great effort is being put forth by the trustees to cancel the mortgage debt this year. With the mortgage debt out of the way. President Booker will have more time to devote to the real needs of the institution and will thus be in better position to raise funds for the many new improvements which he contemplates making in the near future. It is Mr. Booker's aim to have a greater school than ever before in the advantages to students and equipment for teachers. The college has demonstrated its right to live and has thereby won many friends. VOTERS FIGHT TO RETAIN BALLOT Maryland Citizens Are Incensed Against the Digges BHI. WOMEN JOIN IN THE CRUSADE. Inspired by Vigorous Editorial In Afro- American Ledger, Former Minister Ernest Lyon Makes Emphatic Protest Against Effort of State Committee to Organize the Colored Voters. By FRANKLIN E. JOHNSON. Baltimore.—The colored people of Maryland are working with might and main to defeat the Digges disfranchising bills, which will be submitted to the electorate of the state, Nov. 7. The voters have been organized in the twenty-three counties and the city of Baltimore, and much enthusiasm has been shown. The Democrats have been trying to disfranchise the col- EDITOR JOHN H. MURPHY. ored voters of the state for the past two years. Though two distranchising amendments have been snowed under by the people within the past six years, the Democratic machine, through the operation of the Wilson ballot law, has thwarted 50,000 citizens of both races in the discharge of their duties as citizens. An auxiliary committee to the Republican state central committee has been organized with Dr. Ernest Lyon, former minister to Liberia, as chairman. This committee came into existence after a white man had been placed in charge of the work of organizing colored voters. The Afro-American Ledger entered vigorous editorial protests against a white man having charge of the work of stirring up the colored voters, and Dr. Lyon went to the leading spirits in the party and registered an emphatic protest. He was accompanied by Drs. W. A. C. Hughes and A. L. Gaines, both of whom heartily concurred in the objection of the diplomat. The result of the protest was that the party managers readily agreed with the suggestion that the race have charge of the campaign among the colored voters. Auxiliary headquarters were established in the home of Monumental lodge of Elks, 414 West Hoffman street, this city, and the battle for the retention of the right to vote inaugurated. An advisory committee, composed of 200 of the best known residents of the state, was appointed. At the first meeting of the committee $100 was raised to prosecute the fight, and now the amount raised totals $500. The committee is working hard for the election of the Republican gubernatorial candidate, Phillips Lee Goldsborough. Maryland has had only one Republican governor in fifty years. The women have also been very active in the fight for the retention of the right of suffrage and have held REV. DR. W. A. C. HUGHES. meetings in various churches here and in the counties. This work is in charge of Mrs. Harry S. Cumming, wife of the well known member of the city council. Among the prominent men associated with Dr. Lyon in the work are: Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, secretary of the committee; Rev. A. L. Gaines, treasurer; John H. Murphy, publisher of the Afro-American Ledger, chairman of the press committee; Hugh E. Macbeth, editor of the Baltimore Times; Councilman Harry S. Cummings. Rev. W. M. Alexander, president of the Maryland Suffrage league; John P. Forrester, Centerville, Md.; former Councilman H. M. St. Clair, Cambridge, Md.; Captain Edward H. Wilson, Upper Fairmount, Md.; W. Ashlea Hawkins, supreme chancellor of one wing of the Knights of Pythiag; Warner T. McGuinn and others.

BROWN Her Wise Counsel and Good Influence Have Helped Many. Winton, N. C.-Afro-American women in North Carolina who are identified with the various societies organized for the purpose of bettering conditions among the masses of the race are quite an incentive to the men who, in many cases, are at the head of such organizations. They do not only resolve, but are the chief advocates in bringing to pass the objects of the resolutions of the men. In this section of the Old North State the educated women are much in evidence along most all lines of racial movements. The accomplished wife of Dr. C. S. Brown, president of Lott Carey convention and a well known educator, author and preacher, is an effective example of the class of women who are working so zealously to conserve every interest of her race and imbue other women of the race with a spirit which is bringing the proper kind of respect from the general public. Mrs. Brown asserts that a woman, to contribute her share to the task involved upon the race and to meet the necessary requirements of American citizenship, must receive a liberal education and the same kind of en- PRINTING Envelopes, Letters of all kinds, Poste Cards, Programs in Printing, and in the line of...

The distinction and success gained by Dr. Brown in his various activities is largely due to the influence and high character of Mrs. Brown. Her personality is also re- L. vealed in the lives of hundreds of young men and women of the race. Her work in the community has been the means of making hundreds of homes happy and attractive. As Miss Amaza J. Drummond, her name throughout Virginia, especially lexington, her home town, is well known. After graduating from Hampton institute she returned home and continued her work for the lowly. In 1886 she became the wife of Dr. C. S. Brown. Needs of Virginia Union University. Virginia Union university is making splendid progress toward raising the $46,000 needed for the erection of new dormitories and teachers' cottages. About $34,500 of the amount needed has been secured. If all graduates and ex-students will help a little it will not be long before the remainder of $11,500 will be in hand.

Stan McVey, the big Paris-American colored prize fighter, beat Bill Lang in the second round of their bout in Australia the other day, which will be the cause of Lang quitting the fight game forever. KID WALLACE LOSES TO KID PIERSON Kid Wallace, the colored boxer, who claims to be the champion middleweight boxer of the west was easily defeated last Wednesday night at Pueblo in his bout with the fighting news boy of New York, Kid Pierson. The bout was fast and furious for the first few rounds but after the fifth, the whole fight was carried by the New York boy. And it is probable that Kid Wallace will accept some of the big offers that have been made to him by the colored boxers of this city. THE THEATER CRY. The same old cry, "A theater is wanted in Denver." But the problem is, will we ever have one? Well, it is to be hoped that inside of the next 20 years we will have one or near one any way. It is certainly a shame to have to live in a city as large as this one and not have any place to go, but hang around on the corners and look funny or in other words, do the farmer stunt which is becoming a very popular act among the colored people of Denver. And the only thing that I could advise is to wait and live in hope. The soldier bo Y. M. C BILLY KEARSAND AND WIFE.

They are playing the "Noel" circuit for an indefinite time and send regards to friends in Denver of years ago. That famous lecturer and scholar, Dr. M. C. B.

Big Ira Organ, the big clever colored boxer of this city, has issued a challenge to Prince Elmore, a new arrival in the city from the east. Elmore is said to be a hard man, but the big Denver Kid Organ says that the harder they come the better he will like them. It is probable that they will be matched in the near future. As Elmore says he don't care who he fights. BROWN AND McDANIELS. Dear Friend Pryor:—We are still in the land of living and must say that we are doing great. We have one of the neatest little acts in vaudeville and are great hits all over the south. We are contemplating a trip home in the near future and will bring back some of the latest songs and comedy works. We expect to come to Den- ver on the Pantages circuit and will inform you as to the time. Regards to you and friends, from James Brown and Sam McDaniels. PEWEE THE GREAT Mr. C.

In view of the fact that there appeared in the Sporting Notes of last week's Statesman an article which stated that the stars of last year's foot ball game were not members of the Brotherhood, and were discriminated against because they were not in a social standing with the members of the Y. M. C. A., we take this opportunity to correct this statement. The books of the secretary of the Brotherhood will show that with but one exception that all who played in last Thanksgiving day's game were enrolled as members. Notwithstanding the fact, that the organization has certain fixed and, we hope, high moral ideals to which we would encourage all members to aspire; yet we boys from Troop I, 9th Cavalry C. B. team in Denver Thanks do not feel that any one who has taken the opportunity to investigate our activities in the community among young men, can conscientiously charge us with trying to "Shut the door of hope" in the face of any young man who is endeavoring to climb upward. Respectfully submitted. SAVED MANY FROM DEATH. W. L. Mock, of Mock, Ark., believes he has saved many lives in his 25 years of experience in the drug business. "What I always like to do," he writes, "is to recommend Dr. King's New Discovery for weak, sore lungs, hard colds, hoarseness, obstinate coughs, lagripe, croup, asthma or other bronchial affection, for I feel sure that a number of my neighbors are alive and well today because they took my advice to use it. I honestly believe its the best throat and lung medicine that's made." Easy to prove he's right. Get a trial bottle free, or regular 50c or $1.00 bottle. Guaranteed by all druggists.

THE STATESMAN—8 CONCORD MAKES NEW HISTORY Influential Baptist Church In Brooklyn Grows Rapidly. REPORTS SHOW BIG RESULTS. First Anniversary of the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss Fittingly Observed. Celebration Followed by Holding Bible Institute For the Benefit of the Public at Large. Brooklyn.—Perhaps the most notable event in church circles in this city for the week ending Oct. 21 was the observance of the first anniversary of the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss as pastor of the historic and widely known Concord Baptist Church of Christ. These exercises were followed during the week with a Bible institute, conducted by the Rev. S. N. Vass, superintendent of all the work among our people fostered by the American Baptist Publication society of New York. Dr. Moss took charge of Concord as pastor on Sunday, Sept. 4, 1910, after resigning the pastorate of the Bank Street Baptist church in Norfolk, Va., where he had successfully pastored for several years. Being well qualified by education and experience, it was not a difficult matter for him to successfully conduct the affairs of a large and influential church in the north. He has made many necessary and helpful improvements in the work of the church during the year. There have been notable increases in all departments of the church and its auxiliaries. The attendance at the weekly meetings and Sunday services has outgrown the seating capacity of both lecture room and church auditorium. The church is free of debt and has a sinking fund of over $1,500. The securing of Dr. Moss as pastor of Concord has not only been a blessing to the church, but to Brooklyn at large. He is not only a gifted orator, industrious student and ripe biblical scholar, but a great gospel preacher who play the giving and a zeenious worker for maternal advancement of the race without regards to religious proclivities. In his annual sermon Dr. Moss used these words from Galatians vi. 14: "God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." The sermon was delivered with much earnestness and power. Prominent among the visitors who were the pastor's special guests were the Rev. Dr. J. E. Jones of Virginia Union university, Richmond, Va., and Rev. Dr. S. N. Vass of Raleigh, N. C., who delivered the series of lectures during the week.
