The Elks Invite You to their Memorial Tomorrow Night Twenty-Third Year ONE RAC HISTO COM ONE RACE HISTORIAN COMMENDED JUST WHAT WE NEED. At this time, when our hearts are anxious, agitated by present day problems, perplexed by the threatening aspects of the times, dismayed by the gloomy prospects of the future, we are apt to give way to melancholy forebodings and sad misgivings. But when we look around us and within us, and take an introspective view, we find there are two sources of comfort and consolation within our reach of which we must avail ourselves. The first is the Divine Ruler of nations. God as an all-wise, all-powerful, all-knowing and all-sympathetic father, void of prejudice, void of partiality, full of infinite love and benevolence, the creator of all variety of races of mankind is ours also. If we believe and love Him as we should He will not fail us. If we serve Him as we ought—faithfully, trustingly, leaving our fate most confidently to His love and mercy and justice—all shall be well with us, present aspect and future prospect notwithstanding. He knows His own plans and purposes in bringing into existence all races and nations. He controls the universe and the cosmic forces. His providential direction is not away from the constant and uniform operation of the laws that connect causes with effects. He is not only God transcendent, but also God immanent. He will certainly fulfill all His plans concerning us to their uttermost entirety if we only fulfill the conditions and filial, faithful, loving service. If we believe Him we E P THE EDITOR JOHN EDWARD BRUCE shall love Him. If we love Him we shall serve Him. Belief, love and service are correlatives. The second source is the talents and opportunities God gives to us. There may be a right and there may be a wrong use of them. Or they may be neglected altogether. The right use leads to prosperity. Left to ourselves, we miss the way. Directed by God (if we serve Him), we shall ever be led aright, and so miss no blessing He designed for us and our race. We ```markdown ``` are standing them on the sure unshaken and immovable foundations—the everlasting; and none can remove us thence. Our fathers and forefathers, even with less developed talents and, in that light, less opportunities, are examples of this important truth. We need to stimulate the minds of all our people, especially the young, by drawing their attention repeatedly to this allimportant fact. One of our own race has recently written an interesting, instructive book entitled "Lives of Eminent Negro Men and Women (by J. E. Bruce). It is full of biographical sketches of Negro worthies. Again and again the work presents a fresh type of noble talents, nobly cultivated and nobly used. William Amo, a West African, who rose to a most distinguished, the most exalted position possible for a Negro, and in Europe too, Philis Whealeley, another African—a girl whose humble work of nursing a baby did not prevent her shining as a poetess, are samples of this book. It is a picture gallery of true nobility. Every true-hearted Negro will not only read it, but will put it into the hands of others; and all who love themselves and their race will not omit to read it from cover to cover, an easy task, considering the style and moderate size. The author himself, personally known by a very few of our citizens, is a very interesting personage; a Negro of the Negroes; a stalwart champion of his race; red-bot with the fire of genuine and untiring patriotism; dignified in charac- ter, in presence and manners; far-seeing in thought and conception; full of inexhaustible humor and wit (the black Mark Twain); an elderly man of most winsome and kindly disposition, who not only loves his race and country, but has fought bravely and worked hard, and is still working for the glory of that Negro race. He deserves a place side by side with those immortals whom he has so simply and briefly and self-suppressingly described for us. We must congratulate ourselves in having such men and women of our race, and that Mr. T. J. Sawyerr has made it easy for any one to get this book. In our ears Longfellow's reminder: "Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime; And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time," should be ever resonant; and with it re-eachoing the injunction: "Trust in God and do the right." No nation, or people, or tribe, that are deaf to these appeals of vital truths can prosper. None that respond to them can really fail. The study of the rise and fall of nations and empires, past and present, reveals a law of righteousness, e. g., the Assyrian, Babylonion, Medo-Persian, Greek, Roman, Portuguese, Spanish, English, French, American, are signal instances. Concerning the prosperity of the modern ones in this inst, time has more yet to show both in the near and far future. The light in which enlightened ethics, political science and sociology must co-jointly interpret the histories of these nations will reveal that the Judge of all the earth has done right, is stu doing right, and will do right. The laws which rule the world are sure, infallible, and steadfast because they spring from the eternal. CENTRAL CHURCH TAKES ACTION Through its deacon board consisting of James Brown, W. A. Moore, Thomas Dickerson, John W. Hardy, S. H. Baxter, George W. Anderson and J. J. Jackson, Central Church has taken on the following action, which was on Wednesday night ratified by the entire church: The deacon board or Central Bapist Church, after mature deliberation desires to make known its disapproval of the manner in which the Denver Independent-made mention of the unfortunate tragedy involving our pastor, Rev. A. E. Edwards. To us who had loved him for his labors, his untimely end was even more a tragedy than for the whole community. And certainly there is no thoughtful Negro but who realized that from whatever angle this tragedy is viewed, it was another impediment to our race. Therefore, when the Independent laid aside an consideration of the insults of its yellow journal methods and lent itself to blackening the character of the dead, it furnished another argument for those who malign our race, and to Central Church, its members and friends it gave a slap in the face. "For who when his friend has passed away does not remember his virtues and draw the veil of forgetfulness over his vices." Since such actions could not have influenced the trial and were in all respects uncalled for, we feel that we have suffered a gratuitous insult at a time when all Denver knew our cross was especially heavy and when we bore ourselves as Christians amid a world of unkind comment which we deserved not at all. Therefore we desire to protest against the methods of the Denver Independent. We recommend that the members and friends of Central Church withdraw from it their financial support until such time as better judgment and loftier motives save it from making the time of sorrow an opportunity for slanderous gossip. We further request the publication of this letter in the colored press of the city that our protest may be made public. All members are requested to be present at the regular meeting of the Golden Gate Juvenile, Dec. 9-11. By order of Lloyd Mill, W. P., Ruby Walker, secretary. CANON CITY, COLO. Miss Mable Wells was taken suddenly ill Thursday, but was much improved Friday. We hope for her a speedy recovery. Mrs. J. Pate, who is seriously ill, reports slow recovery. We also hope for Mrs. Pate a speedy recovery. Mr. Nep Trusty, who has had serious tiedouloureux in his face, is well again. The Farther Lights Society program and entertainment was a delightful success. The program was as follows: Instrumental Solo, "Melody of Love," Miss Hartaway. Remarks on behalf of the club, Mr. Ney Trusty. Song, "If I only Had a Home Sweet Home," Miss Rosabelle Parker and Miss Daisy Boyston. Reading Holmes' poems, Miss N. Was Reading, Holmes' poems, Miss N. Waters. Recitation, "Pinky Winky," Master Shurdan Boyston. Song, "Sing Me to Sleep," Miss Dovie Wells, Miss Marthia Wells. Recitation, "Don't You Tell," Miss Rosebelle Parker. Remarks by our superintendent. Mr. Nep Trusty's remarks on behalf of the club were splendid. He showed great form in the oratorical world and has won his way into Canon City's young society. Mr. Moody Bruton, the chief promoter of Canon City's programs, was on the stage as usual with his bright smile. His remarks were small, yet his talk on prejudice and progress was splendidly rendered, only there was not enough of the speech. Mr. Bruton is Canon City's playright and is leading Canon City's social circles. Dr. Mason delivered a splendid lecture in the M. E. church. He preached in the morning. The M. E. Sunday school (white) gave Rev. Mason $50 toward completing the educational course. GRAND JUNCTION Rev. Fant has bought four real nice lots in a prominent part of the city, and will build next summer. The Sabbath school is growing under the superintendency of Henry Clay. Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Jno. Hines left last Friday for an enjoyable visit to parts in Kansas and Missouri. The young people of this city, under the leadership of Mrs. L. A. Morris, are doing a great work in the interest of the church. Grand Junction is looking forward to the near future when it will be one of the best little towns in the West. Great improvement forecasted. Last Sunday morning greeted us with a light snow, which soon melted away by 11 o'clock, and services at the church were resumed with regularity. Mrs. Annie Smith, who was visiting in the Cameo coat mines several weeks ago and was accidentally crushed between some runaway cars was brought to the hospital at this place, and after suffering a couple of weeks, died last Tuesday. Her hus band came down and gave her a very respectable interment. FIRST COLORED WEDDING IN CREEDE. The first wedding of colored folks ever held in Creede occurred at the former home of George W. Horne, the restaurant keeper, on Thursday evening at 8 o'clock. The contracting parties were Mrs. Katie Harrison, a sister of Mr. Horne, formerly a resident of Denver, and E. W. Houston, who has for the past few months been employed as porter at the Elks' club, and the ceremony was performed by Rev. Dr. J. B. Math. director of the Creede Congregation at church, who was assisted by Deacons McKibbin and Warren, in the presence of a large number of invited guests. After the big event had been pulled off, per schedule, refreshments were served to the guests and an enjoyable time was had by all concerned. We are not acquainted with the bride to any extent, but have known the groom since the day he "lit" in Creoede and we do know him to be an honest, sober fellow, who attends strictly to the duties assigned to him and who is industrious, as is evidenced by the fact that he is already possessed of a home. We take sincere pleasure in wishing the happy couple a long life, full of happiness and pleasure, with the further thought that if troubles should chance to come their way (accidents will happen), that they may all be "little ones." STARTS MUCH TROUBLE. If all people knew that neglect of constipation would result in severe indigestion, yellow jaundice or virulent liver trouble they would soon take Dr. King's New Life Pills, and end it. Its the only safe way. Best for billiousness, headache, dyspepsia, chills and debility. 25c at all drug stools. DENVER PERSONAL MENTION Social News and Personal Mention Continued on Pages Two, Four, and Five THE ALLIANCE NOTES AND COMMENTS. In spite of the sudden change from spring-like sunshine to stormy weather, Sunday afternoon, the People's Sunday Alliance saw a representative number present at their meeting. One very noticeable thing was that the number of women who taced the elements numbered two to one compared with the men at this meeting. Those who appeared on the program were Mrs. Lillie Penn, who sang very acceptably "Calvary." She was accompanied by Mrs. Mable Pore-DeFrantz at the piano. Miss Beatrice Thrashtly, who is recognized as one of Denver's leading young musicians, who takes music seriously and follows it professionally, played a piano selection, which is equivalent to saying that it was well done. Current literature was read by Mrs. E. P. Ensley, then followed the main event of the occasion, the reading of the second essay in the historical research series. The subject was "The Negro in the Arts, Ancient and Modern." The subject was prepared and read by Mrs. Laura Hill and brought forward definite information. Two things can be truthfully said of the two papers that have been thus far presented in this series: One is that the essayists have presented facts and authorities, and the other is that they have "stuck to their texts." Mrs. Hill's paper will be published in due course of time, as was planned some time since. Prior to the regular afternoon session, the board of directors met and outlined a very excellent program for the forty-ninth anniversary celebration of the emancipation of the American Negro. This program will be rendered the first Sunday in January and will be published in detail soon. Last January our program was a little too crowded to permit the speakers to do themselves justice. This year the board is arranging a little different. They are planning to have only two main speakers, one by a leading Negro pulpit orator and the other by some one of Denver's leading white club women. Of course, there will be the reading of the emancipation proclamation, plenty of good music and other literary features. Watch for details later. The program for Dec. 3rd is as follows: Current Literature. Address, "The Need in the Community of Such an Organization as the People's Sunday Alliance," Attorney W. B. Townsend. Announcements. Mr. Townsend is known throughout this western country as its most abie Negro lawyer and one of its most forceful platform speakers. His disinterested activity in the Harris case marks him as an example of a broad-minded, helpful citizen and a man for justice and the race. He receives no remuneration for his work and yet he has been the mainspring of the successful financial rally for the defense of the defenseless, as well as the chief legal advisor of the attorney in charge. Come and hear him; 4 p. m. is the time of meeting, 2630 Welton street, the place. THE CHURCH OF THE REDEEMER The right reverend bishop of Colorado will make a visitation of the Mission on Sunday next, Dec. 3rd, at 11 o'clock, being the first Sunday in advent, and will celebrate the Holy Communion. It is hoped that every communicant and member of the congregation will endeavor to begin the advent season well by being present to welcome the bishop and to show their appreciation of his visit on the first Sunday of the Christian year. H. R. CRAWFORD, Warden FIVE CENTS A COPY ONAL MENTION Personal Mention on Pages Two, and Five ELKS' MEMORIAL SERVICE. Program Rendered. Luncheon Served. The Public Invited. Tomorrow, Sunday, Dec. 3, at their hall, 2630 Welton street, the Elks of Rice lodge No. 39 will hold their annual memorial service, which will commemorate all the absent brothers, but especially the one who died in the past year, Jas. H. Kelly. The preparations for this service are elaborate, more so because it takes place in the lodge hall where conveniences permit the lodge to show its best. The service begins at 8 p. m. At its conclusion the public, which is extended a general invitation to be present, will be served a luncheon. No expense is being spared and the Elks will feel honored in having the public as its guests. BACHELOR GIRLS The Misses Green and Finley entered the members of the Bachelor Girls' club Saturday, Nov. 15th. Besides playing cards, the Bachelors enjoyed a delicious pig supper. Mrs. Patrick, Misses Steel and Randolph acted as substitutes. Misses Jennie Hicks and Martha J. Hubbard were the winners. Misses Martha J. and Katherine Hubbard had as their guests of honor the Bachelor Girls Saturday evening, Nov. 25th. Invited to meet the club were Miss C. Ensley, Mesdames William Parks and Patrick. Prizes were awarded to Misses Finley, Saline Walker and Mrs. Patrick, booby. MRS. GERTIE ROSS GETS VER- DICT FOR $500 AND COST. In the county court Tuesday, Mrs. Gertie Ross, who brought suit under the Civil Rights law against the "B" theatre on Seventeenth street for discriminating against her August 12th, 1911, was given a verdict for $500 and cost. Lawyer Townsend conducted the case before Judge Dunn. This is the second case under civil rights law won by Lawyer Townsend. AGENT ARCHER ASSOCIATE ASSOCIATE LONDON ANNOUNCEMENT.

Williams Interprets Aim of Class Legislation. | Philadelphia.—Among the many im- | Pomaee pupers read at the eighteenth ) annual session of the Afro-American Presbyterian council, which was re- cently held at the Berean Presby- terfan church in this city, was one by Rey. W. Edward Williams of Balti- more on the evils of jimcrow laws. Declaring at the outset of his ad dress that jimcrow laws requiring separate accommodations for white and colored passengers in public con- veyances are the most degrading. humiliating and cruel of all the legis- Jation affecting our people, the speak. er traced the history of class legisin tion to the period directly after the etvil war, when many of the southern legisiatures enacted Inws against the race. After stating that the intell!- [gent and law abiding men and wom en of the race were the ones aimed at by the enactment of separate car jaws in North Carolina, after Senatoy Bacon of Georgia bad raised a bulla- baloo because Booker T.

Howard Orphan Asylum In New Home at Kings Park. ee eae eR Te ee gees ‘The changing of the home site of the old Brooklyn Howard Colored Orphan asylum from Dean street and Troy avenue, in Brooklyn, to Kings Park, N. Y., marks the passage from familiar view of one of Broctdyn’s oldest ehar- {table institutions. Under the able management of the late Rey. William F. Johnson the Institution became a household word among Brooklynites. It cared for hundreds of orphan chil dren yearly: ‘The asylum was supported mainly by contributions from the various churches of ull Protestant denomina tions and through gifts from individ- uals. The building on Dean street be- came too small for the proper care of the children und the iudustrial work of the school many years ago. but it was not until 1910 that anything was done toward securing more suitcble quar ters. The trustees first secured a tract of 168 acres at St. James, N. Y.. but soon found that this would not be suf ‘tent for buildings for industrial work, truck gardens and farm pur. Poses, Extending their uvestigations farther they came upon the old Indian Head farm of 572 acres at Kings Park. which they purchased and where they have erected # group of cottages and other buildings for the use and earrying ‘on of all departments of the work, with Fample spate land for farming and gardening. The new buildings and grounds were recently dedicated with appropriate exercises by the trustees, other officials and a large concourse of friends of the Institution from Brook lyn, New York and vicinity |The Rev. James H. Gordon, the pres ent superintendent. who took charge of the institntien about ten years ago. has fully demonstrated his capacity as ‘an honest, energetic and safe leader. Cause and Source of Race Prejudice. When the eoio.cd people were slaves to the whites they met with little or no opposition from them except tn the matter of oppressing them beyond their physical strength at manual la bor Bur since the day they became ten there bar bees end of oppost- tion to their progress. This, however. fs only a sign that the race possesses the necessary elements which charac: terize the thrifty citizens of any other race. “And. agnin, this opposition does not come from all the white people but only from such as harbor race prejudice ARCHITECT.

"Licking the hand that smites" is putting it gently when the thing spoken of is the reliance which colored people put in the white daily press. Just last week the deep concern, the labored compliment which was paid by the daily papers to the two white women who testified in the Patterson trial to what they saw of Mrs. Patterson while all three were under arrest in the county jail, was in striking contrast to the fun which they poked at the colored domestic who testified to what she saw while at her work. It makes the blood boil to think that the one difference of color could put a respectable colored woman lower than two jail birds who are white. Yet it does, and yet some of the very people who read this article will patronize the merchants advertising exclusively in white papers. Others are so indifferent that the merchant whose advertisement appears in the Statesman, selling hats, furniture and the like, will never be told by them that they appreciate his attempt to get our trade. Ladies, think this over. The dollar you spend can be made to improve our condition if you will only use it that way. Remember, the advertising power a paper has is the measure of its success. Help your own and refuse to help the papers that abuse Negroes. SEARCH YOUR BIBLE FOR THE COLOR LINE. The lecture of Rev. Thos. Hazell, the second of his series on the Inter-Races Congress, was delivered Thursday of last week at the People's church. It was notable for its lucidity and force. The lecture dealt largely with origins, taking up the early history of the Negro race and following it down. His citations of Biblical history created a profound sensation. He showed how Abraham, Jacob and other men who found favor with God had stepped over the race line and intermarried with women of the Negro race, a fact which he brought out to show that the inhibition in the Bible against the marriage of the children of Israel with a certain Negro tribe was aimed at the religious apostacy which this would bring about, not at the intermingling of blood. He showed how Judah, a son of Jacob and one of the heads of the tribes of Israel, married a Cannanitish woman, a Negro, for Canaan was one of the sons of Ham, and referred his hearers to the first chapter of Matthew, where the geneology of the son of Mary and Joseph lea back to Judah. The conclusion is inevitable that not only is intermarriage a time-honored habit, but is one of such standing that it has been practiced by the best of the peoples of ancient days. The lectures are increasing in interest. LICENSE FINALLY GRANTED FOR THEATER It is an old saying that all things work together for good. An apt illustration of this principle is the fact that just when indignation was running highest over the establishment of discrimination in some of the nickel theaters where the colored population is the greatest, that one fact was the one most powerful argument made use of by the friends of Mrs. Laura Hill who was seeking a license to operate a nickel theater. Victor Walker who interested himself in her behalf declares that this condition which has lately arisen dissolved the doubts of the board and made them grant the license in the face of influence exerted against her. This action was taken last Friday afternoon. Unfortunately for Mrs. Hill—life seems to be just one darned thing after another—the location which she had spoken for at 28th and Welton streets cannot now be secured and she is seeking another location. She may be put to the necessity of having a new building. For a long time it has been understood that money was available for the erection of one at 29th and Welton streets, and this deal may be consummated.

Crisis Ad. Man Discusses Danger of Exaggerating the Facts. Albon Lewis Holesey, the bright and promising young advertising manager for the Crisis magazine, takes editors to task who accept doctorated copy. Mr. Holesey says: The one great fault noticeable in the average run of advertisements is the tendency to exaggerate. Some persons seem to think that exaggeration is the first step in advertising. But such is not the case. The public is now demanding such a high literary standard for its newspapers that exaggerated statements made under the guise of advertisements is out of place and has no point of appeal. Afro-American editors should guard their advertising columns with the same care they exercise toward the literary items. They should not permit anything that has any element of fake to be inserted as an advertisement because when the public has been swindled through a newspaper they straightway lose confidence in it. Recently I saw this remarkable statement in a well known — weekly. "The editor of this paper wishes to state that a certain misleading statement made in the — advertisement last week is not his personal views. Advertisers buy space in our paper and are privileged to say what they think best to give their advertisement the desired effect." I cannot understand why any editor would accept for his readers any advertisement that he did not believe in himself. People have no confidence in a paper that accepts unreliable advertisements and, knowing this, the honest advertiser avoids them. Brooklyn Woman Leaves $70,000 Estate The will of Mrs. Anna M. Fisher, who was buried from the Siloam Press bysterian church in Brooklyn on Sun- day, Oct. 29, was filed for probate on Tuesday, Oct. 31. Mrs. Fisher left an estate valued at $70,000. She was one of the wealthiest colored women in Brooklyn. Mr. Francis H. Gilbert, who is the register for the National Negro Business league, is the executor of the estate, which consists principally of bonds and mortgages except the house in which she lived. Mrs. Fisher was binety-three years of age. --- THE STATESMAN-4 The church decided in the same meeting to call to its pastorate Rev. A. D. Williams, D. D., of Atlanta, Georgia, a minister who is highly recommended by Dr. Fisher and other leading men of the denomination. The parsonage of Central church is being overhauled. An improvement in the shape of a bath room is being added. The removal of the J. R. Ward Auction and Furniture House has given them the best and handiest quarters in the city at the new home, 1822 Welton street. It is not merely the location and arrangements that make this move notable to persons looking for bargains, but the fact that Mr Ward now has room for the large consignments of new and second hand goods which he will get rid of to the highest bidder, with nothing reserved. The householder can find everything, and money talks! The recital of the Queen City chorus at East Turner Tuesday was a revelation to even its most sanguine up holders. The chorus was 75 strong—count 'em—all well drilled in the department of a chorus and in the pieces they were to render. The plano selection of Miss Nola Townsend, the recitation of Miss Cortella Reynolds and the ventriolquism of Mr Searight were interspersed in the program. The applause which they received was convincing evidence of their merit. Of course, the chorus dre wrest most applause and was easily the feature of the evening. Under Prof. Watson it rose to all the splendor of a metropolitan aggregation of singers. Its work in pianissimo was especially to be commended. "Sweet and Low" and "The Lullaby of Life" were like a nightingale's song. The opening number, "Gloria," was grand. It has been said of East Turner that the acoustics were poor. Such a grand concert as the Queen City Chorus produced overcame even that and in this song filled out the full measure of power which Mozart designed. Unfortunately the attendance was small. The chorus deserved a full house. Those whose names appeared on the program's patronesses were: Those who participated in the chorus were: NOTES OF THE PEOPLE'S PRESS BYTERIAN CHURCH.

QUARTERS AND ITS NEEDS. The subject upon which I am about to speak is of vital importance to every reader and the general public. It has been two years since we started what is now known as the Young Men's Christian Brotherhood. When we at first fostered this organization it was looked upon as a fruitless task. We had many ups and downs. Many of our critics foresaw our failure, our downfall and our audienceless meetings. While we must admit that our Sunday meetings have not been what we would like them to be, but we are still of the belief that great things are done by a few and not the many. We still more regret that we have not a permanent place of meeting, a place where the boys can meet and have a good time without evil environments, without that dual life which takes so many of our boys astray. I often wonder why so many people censure the young man of today, that is the young Negro. They say he is a moral degenerate, that he is an undesirable citizen, that he is everything but a man. I would like to know how many Negroes in this country read that article Collier's wrote in this week's issue. It is well for the writer to point out that a greater per cent. of Negroes are condemned murderers; it is well for him, as other writers have done, to write such articles upon what they call facts; but is it not time that a general movement has taken place in this country wherein they want the black man out of the way, wherein they can paint him as black as midnight to the world in order to make what various sociologists and scientists have said against us come true. There was a time when we could look to the different sections of this land for a peaceful and non-riotous community, but show me one now. Now as for those who speak of us as moral degenerates or otherwise degrading, will you not be thoughtful and considerate enough to just weigh the argument. Take Denver for example, and this is one of the many. I would call your attention to the beautiful and well situated institution known as the Y. M. C. A., the new Clayton school, the smaller organizations which are for the purpose of lifting up the poor and unfortunate white boy. These institutions many of them are reliant upon the general public; yet no one says what can we do for the poor or unfortunate Negro. At the same time those people know we have no such place for our boys. They will not help us as they should; they do not encourage us as we need be, yet they and we also ask one another time after time, why was the young Negro run so ioose; I will again invite your attention to the various clubs and pool rooms. I wish every well wisher would inspect these places of amusement. Note how very courteous, how very accommodating and how well met the men in charge are. Now if these men can have such a place under the conditions under which they run, how much more should we try to give the boys the CALLS A PASTOR harmless amusements, literature that uplifts; men who can-be fathers to the boys, men who will make it their personal duty to help the poor fellow look up. If we would just lay aside criticism and remember that we all can't be perfect, that we all are subject to fall into the depths and unless assisted by the man who is better off, we must remain there. I only wish we could get a crusading committee just to go and bring them in. I hope the time is near when we can have a house of modern style with baths, rooms well kept, a reading room and a general good place where a stranger may go and find a good home. Now, is it not possible that if we get a 10 or 12-room house, that we could rent out enough rooms to pay for the house; that our monthly subscriptions, however small, our monthly dues which we could then collect, could support the proposition. But if we go on always seeing the dark side, we will then allow our young men to be lost. If the boys are worth the while, if they have a soul to save, is it not worth doing or saving today, for tomorrow he may be lost. I am heartily in sympathy with this class of fellows and ask every reader to consider this thoughtfully, and let us get busy and do something for the boys. We must remember, while we have our good warm homes, our mother and father to care for us, there is many an unfortunate who needs a little care, and with a little care we can develop some fine men. I for one would gladly subscribe a few dollars a month to help this move to its realization. It means much to me, much to you and much to the individual. Look around about you and see what you can do, where you can help, what you can say that may cause some one to hold up his heaum and say "I will." Let us not push the fellow who is already down, but take him by his hand and show him the better way. Let us who are Christians not live so much in heaven. Let us not be so holy that we allow our brother at our side to fall and we not see or notice his stumble. Every man is worthy of consideration.

THE STATESMAN—6 FORMAL OPENING OF NEW SCHOOL Institution Named For Princely Scholar Begins Work. FEATURES OF THE OCCASION Commodious Brick Structure, For Which Congress Appropriated $45,000, Makes Valuable Addition to Educational Facilities—Persistent Work of Citizens' Association Appreciated. BY N. BARNETT DODSON. Washington. On entering the national capital from the north, whether by the Baltimore and Ohio or by the Pennsylvania railway, the traveler sees right at the gateway of the city a commodious brick structure which flies the American flag. Upon inquiry he learns that this is the Alexander Crummell School For Colored Children, named in honor of our pioneer race leader. Congress appropriated $3,000 for the school site and $45,000 for the six room building. The structure is so planned that an extension to eight or twelve rooms is possible without destroying the architectural design. The building contains the very latest improvements in school equipments. The heating and ventilating apparatus insures comfort at all seasons of the year. A fan forces the warm air to all the rooms in winter and drives the cool breezes in the summer. Besides the classrooms, there are a library, teachers' and domestic science rooms, janitor's quarters, playrooms for girls and boys and benches for the younger pupils. Six drinking fountains on all the three floors provide the best sanitary facilities. The interior halls are laid in cement, which also surfaces the iron stairways. Wire plate glass is used along the stairways and also to partition the janitor's quarters in the basement. The formal dedication of the building on Tuesday, Nov. 21, was a most interesting occasion. The entire community thronged the balls and classrooms, while teachers and citizens from all sections of the city were present. Dr. W. V. Tunnell, member of the city board of education and a member of the American Negro academy, founded by Dr. Crummell, presided. The Citizens' association, the pioneer organization to whose energies and persistence the legislation for a new school was placed on the statute book, was represented by Rev. G. W. Brent, its president, and Mrs. Mary Toulson, chairman of its educational committee. The Parents' Home and School association was represented by its secretary, Mrs. Mamie E. Edmondson. Assistant Superintendent Roscoe C. Bruce presented the keys of the building, while Dr. W. M. Davidson, superintendent, spoke felicitously on the value of ideals. The members of the board present were Captain James F. Oyster, Mrs. Carrie Harris and R. R. Horner. Esq. The special significance of the exercises was the tasteful decorations presented by the Parents' Home and School association, of which Mr. R. B. Ashe is president and Mrs. Mamie C. Edmondson secretary. They provided a fund with which these decorations were procured Chief among these are a life size bust of Frederick Douglass, one of Lincoln, plaques of Thorvaldsen's "Night and Morning" and reproductions in sepha and black of such well known masters as Landseer, Corot, Millet and Ruysaedel, besides "Aurora." "The Dance of the Muses" and "The Flaming Arrow" in colors. But the crowning decoration is the oil painting of Dr. Alexander Crummell by Mr. W. Ernest Braxton of Brooklyn, presented by the Negro Society For Research of New York, of which Mr. John E. Bruce (Bruce Grit) is president. The frame of massive gilt was presented by the Parents' Home and School association. Mr. Braxton is a native of Washington and a product of its public schools. One of his teachers, Dr. Mary M. Armstead, lives within eight minutes' walk of the Crummell school, and it was one of the surprises of her life to find in a former pupil an artist so favorably known in the art circles of New York, destined henceforth to be reckoned as one of Washington's talented sons. The presentation speech by the principal, Mr. John W. Cromwell, was a loving tribute to his dear friend Dr. Crummell and a prophecy of the uplifting and transforming influences of this new beacon of light. The present corps includes John W. Cromwell, principal; Miss Britannia C. Reed, Mr. Arthur P. Brent and Miss Maud E. Fleming. Dr Winfield S. Montgomery, who is supervising principal of the division in which the Crummell school is located, has given the movement for the new school his co-operation from its inception to the present. Big Sum Raised For Fisk University. The trustees of Fisk university Nashville, Tenn., are very much encouraged over the outlook for the raising of $300,000 for the immediate use of the institution. They are backed by the general education board in New York. At a meeting which was held in New York the latter part of November subscriptions amounting to $122,500 were received. Is Beautiful In Cover and Rich In Reading Matter. Typographically the Christmas edition of the Crisis Magazine, which is now being distributed, is the most beautiful yet issued. The cover and the headings for departments have been specially designed by Mrs. Louise Latimer of Pratt institute, On a rich background of golden holly leaves rises the rich brown reproduction of Albrecht Duerer's "Adoration of the Three Kings," with the black king in the foreground. Among the "Men of the Month" are the late Justice Harlan, Bishop Smith and Counselor Parker of Nashville. The center pages are occupied with a large portrait of Wendell Phillips at the age of forty-eight and a beautiful tribute from Charles Edward Russell, the well known magazine writer, who is writing his biography. The main article this month is a story, "Jesus Christ In Georgia." It is a daring attack on lynching in the form of fiction, bringing in the mysterious figure of the Christ and the dying thief. Mr. L. M. Hershaw furnishes some interesting historic dates in the month, and the number ends with a careful review of Dr. Dubois' new novel, "The Quest of the Silver Fleece," by the poet William Stanley Braithwaite. The Crisis has now reached a sworn circulation of 16,000 copies and goes to every state of the Union and every continent in the world. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION'S BIG PROTEST MEETING. Battle For Liberty to Be Fought Over Again. Says Dr. Holmes. The November public meeting of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People was held in the Ethical Culture hall, Central Park West, New York, and was largely attended. The main object of the meeting was to protest against the constantly growing crime of lynching. Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard, who presided, gave indications of the nature and tone of the speeches which were to follow In a single sentence of his introductory remarks when he said, "He who keeps silent on this question shares in the nation's guilt." Mrs. Florence Kelly in the course of her address, which was logical and fearless, said: "The personal honor of a woman is her own affair, which no one can attack but herself. The women of our country ought to hang their heads in shame over these frightful atrocities, for have we not had the educating of the men who have perpetrated those horrors? We have acquiesced in it, and our southern sisters have been willing to be the cause of these lynchings." The speech of the Rev Dr John Haynes Holmes, the eminent pastor of the Church of the Messiah, created great enthusiasm. The address was remarkable for its frankness and earnestness. Dr. Holmes said in part: "Lynching is a monstrous iniquity Today the black man is lynched for committing that crime or for committing some other crime or for committing no crime at all. Now more than ever does the reign of lynching prevail. Some years ago they used to storm a jail to get a Negro and lynch him. Now the mob invades the sacred precincts of a hospital to carry on its nefarious work. "The American people are the most lawless of any people in the civilized world, from the mother who lies about the age of her child on the street car to escape paying for his car fare to the corporation president who employs lawyers to enable him to evade the law. The time has come when another battle like that of fifty years ago must be fought to save the south again. The Negro now more than ever is entitled to his freedom, and a battle for liberty must be fought over again." HONOR PHILLIPS' MEMORY. American Negro Academy Holds Celebration In Washington. The centenary of Wendell Phillips, the eminent antislavery orator and reformer, was fittingly observed under the auspices of the American Negro academy on Wednesday evening, Nov. 29, at the Metropolitan A. M. E church in Washington. Hon Wendell Phillips Stafford, justice of the supreme court of the District of Columbia, delivered the historical oration. The executive and judicial officials of the District, the fraternal orders, civic associations, benevolent organizations, educational institutions, the Grand Army of the Republic, the ministerial unions, the Young Men's Christian association, the Young Women's Christian association and the general public all united in making the celebration a success. Infantry Regiment Goes to Manila. The war department has ordered the Twenty-fourth United States infantry, which has been stationed at Fort Ontario, to Manila. The regiment left for San Francisco on Nov. 28, from whence it will leave on the transport Logan for the Philippines on Tuesday, Dec. 5.

B, and Ninth Cavalry, Scotty Williams and Wilbur Woods, Valley and Arapahoe Red were the heroes of the game. They played the game right through. If our team can beat United States men, well, all other teams are turkey for us. Albert Robinson played the game also. When Valley bucked the heavy soldier, Valley yelled, "This is my turkey." Score 70 to 0. The attendance at the football game was considerably less than last year, possibly half, making about 300 persons. The football game Thursday between the local Y. M. C. B. team and the soldiers of Troop I of the Ninth Cavalry was a disappointing contest. The locals were so overwhelmingly superior that long before the game was over, while yet the third period was in progress, the crowd began to go home. This was in striking contrast to last year when the closeness of the game with Kansas City made everyone glad that he went and eager to stay to the last moment. A description of the game would put Mr. Fumble in the front rank as the most consistent ground gainer. The soldiers used him most of the time and as a result seldom made the first down. Their kicks were marred by their inability to get the ball in play quick enough for the same reason. By giving fumbling as the main reason for their defeat, it is not our purpose to detract from the consistent strong play of the Y. M. C. B. Captain Robinson ran his team well and they played a good game, yet so indifferent was the defense of the soldiers and so weak their offense, that credit to 'the local team is not so great as it would have been otherwise. Scotty Williams and Wilbur Wood received the most general applause for brilliant runs, and recovery of fumbles. Robinson's kicking was consistently good. However, the game was so easy that while the Y. M. C. B.* in different periods used all of its men in its line up, including substitutes no material slowing up was noticeable. In explanation of the soldiers' poor play, the reason given is that they were limited to a choice of a team from the sixty men of Troop I with only two or three of experience. They had desired to choose a team representative of the regiment but were denied that privilege by the Denver managers. Then too, such men as were on their team have been denied the opportunity to practice since the army is under the strictest military preparation for participation in the Chinese, Philippine or Tripolian troubles. It is regrettable that a stronger team did not come even by those most partisan to the Y. M. C. B. The players for Deenver were Perkins F. Wood, Allen Valley, Langston, Linzy, Holmes Clements, Robinson, Davis, Williams, W. Wood, Drake Srtothers, D. Catlett, M. Catlett, Duncan, A. Catlett. The soldiers were Jackson, Nichols Hall, Staden, Webb, Coleman, Dickerson, Bird, Wilson, Waters, Moyer, Harrison, Branch, Taylor, Salter.

Prof. Hammond, the world's famous Negro bandmaster and at present the head and director of the now famous Negro band of the Ninth Cavalry, was in the city last week closing and signing a contract to play in Denver during the week of the Stock Show. Prof. Hammond is without a doubt the most capable band master in the whole united States army, and to show their appreciation the government is going to send him to Europe this spring to learn more in music. Law Enforcement a Dead Letter. Law Enforcement a Dead Letter. The question is now being discussed very largely among the best white and colored people as to which is the greater menace to the morals of the youth of today, the crimes or alleged crimes committed by the colored people or the lawless acts of those lawless whites who constitute themselves the law and lynch and burn human beings accused of crime without regard to their innocence or guilt. One thing is certain, and that is the enforcement of law by those whom the people elect to enforce it is a dead letter in this country.
