He is a chauffeur. Monday will go down on the records of Centennial Lodge of Masons as a red letter day, as it was then that they filled Eureka hall to overflowing with a crowd of their friends. It was the opening of the festal season after Easter and was enjoyed to the utmost. The entertainment was the largest the lodge has given in some time and one of the most enjoyable ever given in the city. The music was furnished by Arthur Jackson's symphony orchestra which received favorable comment upon its excellent time. The cantata rendered by Zion choir last Thursday at the church, having as its theme the "Last Seven Words" of Christ, was a most satisfactory exposition of the ability of this excellent choir, though the attendance was not up to the high standard which they have uniformly maintained. Since, however, their musical perfection is the larger desideratum, it is pleasant to say that they did themselves and their instructor, Mrs. E. L. Faulkner, all honor. Mrs. Faulkner and Mrs. DeFrantz were accompanists, and Mr. Madison cornetist. The singing of Miss Partee, the Chicago song bird, was a feature of the dance "under the palms" Monday night. The social features were well emphasized and the dancers had a big time until late. The funeral of Chas. Lowe, who died on Saturday, occurred on Tuesday from Shorter church, of which he was a member. Rev. Ward was the officiating minister. He leaves sisters and brothers to mourn him.

Chief Healy, who is stationed at the Points, has the fire department all jealous of the way in which he is handling his new auto. He is now enjoying the sobriquet of "Hurry-up Healy."

They presented her with a beautiful pearl rosary as a reward for her labor. The Temple is now in good financial shape and open to receive the membership of all ladies of character and worth.

The revival services have brought it to a high standard spiritually, about 25 being fellowshipped in the services Sunday. So large a number is highly gratifying to the pastor and members. The wave of enthusiasm rolled high, so that it is easy to foresee the success of the rally a few Sundays hence. This is the last year of service of Rev. Ward, and since Shorter has an enviable reputation among all the churches of the Methodist denomination, the efforts of all are bent on seeing that he makes a report to the general conference of the work he has done, such as was made in the old days under Rev. Phil Hubbard, who made this the Mile High church indeed. A number of the most prominent men of the connection are being mentioned for Rev. Ward's successor and the high resolve of the church will be an important factor in the selection of a suitable man for the work.

KING Recognition of the Services of an Able Editor to Center in His Promotion to Chancellorship of Knights of Pythias—Warm Friend of Ambitious Young People. Dallas, Tex.—With due respect to the scores of our people in this state who are daily doing all in their power for the development of our race here and throughout the nation, Texas really can boast of at least two real leaders who are progressive and constructive. One is the Hon. R. L. Smith, the moving spirit of the Farmers' Improvement society and president of its bank, and the other is the original of the cut illustrating this article, the Hon. W. E. King, editor of perhaps the most widely read paper in the southwest, the Dallas Express. Mr. King hails from Mississippi. Hails is the word, for he belongs to most every secret fraternity in Texas, and members of few organizations can ask him from where he hails, or whatever word his ritual prescribes, for he is able to meet the requirements of their code as to state limitations. Sometimes he has to answer in a half dozen or more different ways, but finally he locates his accoster, and with an iron grip that is characteristic of the indomitable spirit that pushes him upward and onward he grasps as man to man the hand offered him and slaps his newly made friend on the back and says, "Glad to meet you, brother." Editor King makes friends easily, and probably no man has a larger personal acquaintance in Texas than he, and along with Bill McDonald he shares the honor of being the best known man in Texas. As the editor of a paper of fearless convictions and the possessor of a peculiar style of writing what he says is read, and what he says is readable. Few people in Texas fail to know of the Dallas Express, but invariably they refer to it as King's paper. The Dallas Express, not just as a paper, but as a business institution of merit. When he dies he wants his only monument to be the Dallas Express, and the flowers for which he craves after death are the bright eyed, big brained. EDITOR W. E. KING. level headed young men and women he hopes to leave in charge of his paper and its plant. Some men accuse Mr. King of being stern—very stern—but no aspiring youth ever found him other than sympathetic. His greatest enemies are men against whom he had no ill thoughts, but fought because they heeded not the cry of the colored youth and persistently helped to close the door of opportunity against them. At present Mr. King is the leading spirit among the men of the race who are fighting Cecil Lyon, whom he terms the Lily White destroyer of the Republican party and its principles in Texas. Others are fighting Lyon secretly and under cover, but the editor of the Express fights always in the open and when racial interests are at stake asks for no quarter and gives none. He gives his time and money and space in his paper to the present fight, and so far as is known not one has given anything to further the fight or assist him. Alone he has braved the storm and stood like a stone wall against the enemy. The masses of our people in this state are beginning to realize more and more the results of the efforts put forth by Mr. King in their behalf. He has been an active participant in the various secret societies for many years. He is not satisfied with simply being a member of a society, but has given them the benefit of his knowledge and experience freely. His efforts have been directed along constructive lines. In view of the fact that Mr. King has never sought to hold an office in any of the secret societies to which he belongs and to which he has given much time, thought and labor and in recognition of his unstinted services to the race along other avenues of usefulness, his friends all over the state have decided to present his name for grand chancellor of the Knights of Pythias. His business acumen, his foresight and his training in life's great school of experience make of him an ideal man for the place his friends desire him to fill. BUSINESS MAN AN EDUCATOR Professor John R. Hawkins' Work For A. M. E. Church. NEW PLANS FOR THE FUTURE. Lauds Present System of Raising Funds For Current Expenses, but Believes the Time Is Ripe For Method by Which to Reach a Larger Number of Members. By GEORGE FRANCIS KING. Raleigh, N. C.-One of the most important questions to be considered by the general conference of the A. M. E. church at its session in Kansas City, Mo., in May is the selection of a secretary for the financial department of the denomination. Because of its importance keen interest is being manifested by the ministry and laity of the church. The import of this office is made appreciable by the following utterances of the able orator, educator, successful business man and commissioner of education for this denomination, Professor John R. Hakkins of Kittrell, N. C. He says: "Our present system is acknowledged to be a good one, and so far it has JOHN H. HARRIS worked well. The marvel of the age is the success that attends the efforts of the A. M. E. church in raising money and maintaining its several departments. The dollar money alone is the bedrock of this great system. A membership of nearly $80,000 contributes annually nearly a quarter of a million in 'dollar money.' This much has been done, too, without any general or specific plan having its origin in or being centered in our financial department, thus making this department a mere receiving station and depository for distribution. "To my mind, we have reached the point when it is absolutely necessary to inaugurate some plan by which we may reach a greater number of our members and collect from them even a larger percentage of the dollar contemplated by the originator of our 'dollar money' system. "For some time I have been trying to work out some scheme to submit to our hardworking ministers by which their burdens would be made lighter and their work more satisfactory to themselves because of the success that would naturally follow. The hour is ripe for action. Our people are much worked up over the idea of doing for themselves, building their own churches, maintaining their own schools and supporting their own organizations." Professor Hawkins sets forth in a clear and concise manner how glowing results can be obtained by a well defined system which would leave in this department a surplus of $100,000 for the first year, to be used where mostly needed after meeting the salaries of bishops, general officers and other expenses of the general church. Giving the present system of division with the above figures to work on, the following results will be obtained: As to that for the other departments, 36 per cent equals $144,000, which would give to every superannuated preacher, his widow or heir, twice as much as paid to them now. Eight per cent for education would be $32,000, which would give each school twice as much as is now paid. Ten per cent for church extension would be $40,000, twice as much as is now applied. Every department of the church work would be better provided for and we would soon reach the place where it would not be necessary to have so many general or specific days for rallying the people for money for such expenses. Relative to Professor Hawkins' eminent fitness and ability, after sixteen years of remarkable service as head of the educational department of the church, having phenomenal success, he is regarded as one of the most astute financiers and business men of the race. He has a thorough knowledge of church and civil laws, which have made him a potent factor in church councils. He would be of incalculable value as the financial secretary.

Vinton, who has been in mission work for twelve years in Burma, spoke recently at the Hampton (Va.) institute. He told briefly the story of Baptist missionary work during the past sixty years and referred to the fact that there are in Burma many native Christians at the present time. Mr. Vinton said that in his own field there were 159 organized churches, having 11,000 communicants. Much of the missionary work is being done by converted natives. Owing to the lack of roads and to the wet and dry seasons communication is extremely difficult. The missionaries are compelled to travel in ox carts and often suffer from the wear and tear of travel. Rev, Mr. Vinton showed with the aid of colored lantern slides and moving picture films the various phases of life in Burma and the beauties of the costly pagodas. He declared that some of the pagodas reach a height of 365 feet and are a quarter of a mile in circumference at the base. The pagodas are monuments of a sacred character at which the people of Burma worship. These structures are substantially built and are famous the world over for their ornamentation. The cheapness of labor makes it possible for the government of Burma to hire in at 12 cents a day to water the streets. The ordinary unskilled laborer earns 12 cents a day. In telling the --- story of the building of a church on his station, known as the "Vinton Memorial," Mr. Vinton said that a $31,000 structure represented 186,000 days of labor by the natives of Burma. He gave an excellent illustration of the use of the tonal language of Burma. About sixty-seven languages are spoken in "pagoda land." Race Making Double Fight For Life. To work hard for a living and fight race prejudice at the same time is the experience of many persons. Dr. Booker T. Washington says any man who has to work against poverty and race prejudice at the same time has a gilantic problem to cope with. That is true, and the success of the colored people in this country has been marvelous in view of the foregoing facts. It takes a person or a race of more than ordinary patience, physical and mental capacity, grit and persistence to stem the tide of injustice and inequality of opportunity such as the colored people in the United States have to combat, and yet they are brave and optimistic.

No More Hysteria The opposition of the Statesman to the initiative and referendum, and to recall of executive and judicial officers, is of long standing and well known. Therefore it is to be expected that we are not in sympathy with the Citizens' Party and the commission form of government. Yet we realize that no public question is one-sided and that arguments can be brought against our position, not good ones we believe, but still arguments that are convincing to some voters. Therefore we believe that we owe it to our good sense to avoid accusing our opponents of being altogether vile or foolish. Yet strange to say, those who oppose us, spend far more time in plain abuse than in argument to show the need of a change of system. If the Citizens Party' adherents were defending the prevailing condition abuse might serve, but since they are clamoring for a change, it is to reason they should appeal. Two years ago in a campaign characterized by the same methods, the voters were persuaded to reject propositions to buy the water plant or to grant an extension of franchise. The arguments used to show that a new plant could be built for half the price of the old, were simply abuse. The result was to be expected. "Those who live by the sword shall die by the sword." Those who get political success without a substantial foundation of fact and reason, shall fall through their folly. For two years the case has been in court and recently, the one man upon whose professional knowledge and skill the proposed plant rested, admitted under oath in the United States court that his investigations were inadequate to show sufficient water to supply a new plant, and such investigations as he had made showed a considerable advance in the cost of water rights over the estimate he gave during the progress of that campaign. However, Denver people apologize to their conscience for using abuse as their guide in voting instead of reason, they cannot evade paying the cost. So it is that The Statesman calls the attention of voters in the coming election to the need of judging the proposals submitted, by facts and reason rather than by abuse of those who oppose them. There are some good points about them and it is for us to see whether they are greater than the good points of the propositions they seek to supplant. It is not an argument for the commission form of government, for instance, that Mayor Speer has been unsatisfactory. A bad official does not mean that the system is bad. On the other hand, if we were to grant that the commission form of government was good, that would not prevent poor commissioners from making it as odious as do poor officials make present conditions undesirable. Voters must learn to distinguish be tween the means and the man. HEAR HI Dr. James E. address the ci ver at the Pe nacle, Thurs April 18. Ad All are A GOOD JOB F Dr. James E.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH The Easter services at Zion were the most elaborate, the most inspiring and enjoyable of any we have known for a number of years. A very entertaining program by the children at 10 o'clock, the Easter seren at 11, and a musical program by the choir at night made up the order for the day. The perfect weather brought out an immense congregation which taxed the capacity of the building at each service. By request the choir repeated the cantata which was repaired the Thursday evening before. Too much praise cannot be given the choir, and Mrs. Faulkner for the splendid rendition of this most difficult and pleasing cantata, "The Seven Last Words of Jesus." To be able to interpret so successfully the tragic meaning of Golgotha is a triumph which makes us proud of our singers. The Sunday school campaign during this hard winter has succeeded in more than doubling the enrollment. At the beginning of the movement in the month of November, last, the roll contained about 150 names which has now reached about 350. There is really no good reason why this number should not reach 500 during this summer. Our B. Y. P. U. has also taken on new life. The attendance at the evening meetings has known a considerable increase and the general interest in the lesson study is making it a live organization of young people. A series of home entertainments is reaching our young people from the social side in a way that is pleasing to the leaders. Co. Henderson PEARL TOOTH POWDER BRIGHTENS AND BEAUTIFIES THE MASK.

Zion is now preparing for another visit from the Williams World Famous Jubilee Singers about the close of the present month or the beginning of May. The coming of this organization is always a treat to the Denver public. We are planning to make this the greatest ever. The concert will be held at the new church, and we expect to sell a thousand tickets. Everybody will be there. Word was received last week by the pastor to the effect that Mr. Amanda King, who has been very ill in Los Angeles, is much improved and considered out of danger. Mrs. King pricked her finger with a needle from which blood poison set in. For a time her life was greatly endangered. The son of Mrs. Julia Smith, formerly of this city and Zion, passed away at Allensworth Colony last Wednesday morning. Mrs. Smith has many friends in our congregation, every one of whom feels deeply her sorrow at this hour. Sunday school at 9:45 a. m.; morning service at 11:00; B. Y. P.

Next Friday morning the Woman's Baptist Missionary City Union will meet at Zion Baptist Church, opening at 10:30 with devotionals led by Mrs. Lottie Dickerson and Miss Ethel Layton. The session will then be devoted to business. The afternoon session will open at 2 o'clock with devotionals, led by Mrs. J. M. Mason and Mrs. B. Jones. The program will consist of discussion; subject, "How to Overcome Difficulties in Church Work." Instrumental and vocal solos by Miss Threshley and Mrs. L. Jones, and paper by Mrs. Froman. The public is invited to attend. Mrs. Reynolds, president; Mrs. J. M. Mason, chairman of committee. THE CHURCH OF THE REDEEMER. Perfect weather, overflowing congregations, excellent music, impressive services, combined to make Easter day all that could be desired, and a day long to be remembered in the history of the Church of the Holy Redeemer. A point had been reached in the spiritual life and material well-being of the church never before attained. And the watchword is still "forward." It now becomes imperative upon us to provide more room for the constantly increasing congregations so that our members and visitors may be made comfortable at all times. On Monday morning, therefore, while the blessed memories of the Easter day's services were still fresh and delightful, we sought out and employed an architect to make plans and specifications for an extension of the nave of the church. The contract will be immediately let and the work pushed so that when the record breaking confirmation class is presented to the Bishop of the diocese on the evening of Sunday, April 28th, there will be room to accommodate the large congregation that will assemble to engage in the solemn and impressive service. The formal induction of the vested choir which was postponed from last Sunday, chiefly because to do so would have unduly lengthened a service already lengthy, will take place on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. The priest, Father Brown, will preach a special sermon, subject: "The White Robed Throng." It being Low Sunday, there will be Choral Solemn celebration of the Holy Eucharist. At the evening service, the sacrament of Holy Baptism will be administered to the last class of candidates preparatory to the Sacrament of Confirmation. The subject of the special sermon will be "St. Thomas, the Doubter." By kind permission of the Very Rev. Dean Hart, the Altar Guild of St. Mary the Virgin, will hold their first entertainment under the new regime in the Chapter House, 13th avenue and Clarkson street, on Thursday evening next, the 18th inst., at 8:30 o'clock. The girls are sparing no pains to make this festival a success and the PICTORO-LITERARY-MUSICFEST promises to be not only unique in name but also unique in character. Animated pictures, literary and musical—vocal and instrumental—selection and light refreshments will constitute the program. You will be more than amply compensated of a 15 cent admission ticket. Apply to any of our altar girls for one. Remember the confirmation instruction class that is being held every Sunday evening at 6:30 o'clock. The time is drawing near for Confirmation. Let all be diligent and prompt in their attendance. We gladly welcome YOU to any or all of our services. THE PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. Sermon Topics: Sunday, April 14th. 9:30 A.

SCOTT M. E. CHURCH NOTES. The Easter services were better than ever. The church resembled a beautiful flower garden with singing birds and happy children singing the praises of the Risen Lord. The committee rendered faithful service in making the church beautiful for which they have our heartfelt thanks. The junior choir with their vestments made a beautiful picture. Mrs. Dooley and Rice worked very faithfully to prepare these little ones for Easter. The senior choir held forth at night. A large audience greeted the participants and was not disappointed in coming. Mrs. Hicks and her co-workers deserve much praise for this excellent showing. The Woman's Home Missionary will render a special program Sunday evening, April 28th. Mrs. A. C Peck will be one of the speakers. The first official board has met and made great plans for the future.

Come prepared to help discuss the lesson. G. G. Ross has been selected by the official board as the new Sunday school superintendent Ross is well qualified in this department of the church. His plans will be modern and Sunday school lover is invited to attend and make things interesting and lively. The pastor will conduct a Men's Bible class in connection with the Sunday school. The Sunday school will not be changed to morning as it has been reported by some one not responsible. The same hour will be in vogue.

Decision of the United States Supreme Court In the Alonzo Bailey Case—Attorney General's Efforts to Enforce the Thirteenth Amendment—Favorable Attitude of Federal Judges. Washington.—Colored citizens generally are very often heard to complain bitterly that the federal government does not enforce the war amendment of the constitution. Much that the federal government does in this respect very often goes unnoticed. Undoubtedly the most important of these amendments, if any one of them may be said to be more important than another, is the thirteenth amendment, which abolished slavery and which was intended to secure to every man the right to individual liberty and freedom from servitude of any kind except as a punishment for crime whereof he has been duly convicted. Therefore the decision of the supreme court in the Alonzo Balley case, rendered by Mr. Justice Hughes, holding unconstitutional the state law of Alabama which held Balley as a peon, in which Attorney General Wickersham and Assistant Attorney General Harr appeared, was a distinct triumph for the cause of freedom. It should be remembered that it was not the official duty of the attorney general to appear in this case, but his act was wholly voluntary in the interest of the enforcement of the thirteenth amendment and the peonage statutes. The report of the attorney general for 1911 gives two pages to the subject of the enforcement of the peonage statutes. The report says. The vigorous enforcement of the statutes against peonage, conducted by the department in the last few years, it is believed, has done much toward stamping out that form of involuntary servitude in many districts, but in some of the southern states this practice appears to be still under way. The reports under the peonage statutes have been instituted in nearly all the southern states and in a few states not in the south. The reports also recommends that— The statutes of the United States upon the subject of peonage and slavery should be amended so as to render them more effective for the protection of persons against slavery and involuntary servitude except as a punishment for crime. Make Amendment More Binding. Here it would seem is a large field for the workers of the race to secure from congress laws necessary to render more effective the thirteenth amendment and thus make more secure the lives and liberty of our brethren in the south. The records will show that prosecutions of persons for violating the peonage statutes have been instituted in Alabama. Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee. Texas and other states. Convictions have resulted in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia, with prosecutions still pending in Kentucky, Louisiana and Texas. In a number of cases prison sentences have been imposed upon men of wealth and standing, in addition to being sentenced to pay heavy fines. The local United States attorneys have had the assistance of special agents of the department of justice and the assistance of special attorneys in the prosecution of these cases. Great credit should be given them for the courage and vigor with which they have tried to enforce these laws under circumstances where juries might be expected to be slow to convict. Federal judges, notably Judge Emory Speer of Georgia and Judge Thomas Jones of Alabama, have been most outspoken and courageous in their charges to the grand juries considering these cases in their respective districts. A few more years of this kind of campaign, with the assistance of congress, ought to result in stamping out peonage and involuntary servitude of all kinds. It will be recalled that just after the war the southern States passed a great many black laws for the purpose of re-enslaving the Negro, all of which they were required to strike from their statutes before being readmitted into the Union or participate in the national government. Various devices have been used since to accomplish the same result, such devices as "vagrant laws." "landlord and tenant laws." "false pretenses." the "claim of indebtedness." etc. Many a man has been held as a virtual slave in the turpentine camps and contractors' stockades by coercion and brute force. One of the methods used if a person desires the services of a laborer who has broken his contract or been guilty of other misdemeanor is to swear out a warrant, take the prisoner before a justice of the peace, go surety on his bail bond, then take the man to his farm or plantation and compel him to labor. Other Illegal Methods In Practice. Sometimes the case is dropped with the above action, or if it is prosecuted a fine is paid. The person desiring to hold the laborer in his service will pay his fine and compel him to work out the fine. One of the methods used is to have a man confess to the commission of a crime and sign a criminal court contract whereby he undertakes to work out the fine for the person who pays it. This person is called the confessor. At the July term of the United States district court for the southern district of Alabama twenty-one indictments were returned against twenty-six defendants for holding nine different persons as peons and slaves. These indictments are still pending. In one case a man was convicted of petty larceny in the state court, fined $15 and costs, judgment and all amounting to $43.75. One John Doe, a stranger, came into court under the state laws and confessed judgment for the defendant and paid the fine and costs. Thereupon the defendant entered into what is called a criminal contract to work out this amount at $0 a month. The defendant ran away after working over a month. He was rearrested on an affidavit by John Doe, fined one cent and $07.05 costs. Then another stranger, Richard Roe, confessed judgment; another contract is entered into by which the defendant in the state court agrees to work fourteen months and fifteen days at the rate of $6 a month. A little later the defendant ran away again, was rearrested and this time fined $300 and $112.80 costs, making $412.80, and sentenced to hard labor for more than a year. Steamboat Case on Alabama River. There was another case of old fashioned slavery where a man was working on a steamboat plying up and down the Alabama river. Three persons took him off the boat, carried him to their plantation and forced him to go to work. This man refused to work, was cruelly beaten and whipped and when he was unable to work was told to go. He was afterward arrested on a charge made by the kidnappers of carrying concealed weapons and fined $53.85 costs, judgment confessed upon him, and he was taken away into slavery again to work it out at $10 a month. White men, as well as colored men, have been held in peonage. Indeed, one of the peons named in one of the indictments above referred to is a white man. The Harlan and Gallagher cases decided at the December term of the supreme court. 1910. were cases in which white men were held as peons in the lumber camps of Florida under "a most atrocious system of enforced labor." While these state laws making peonage possible are made with special reference to compelling the labor of the Negro, they occasionally catch white men as well, particularly immigrants working under contract, as in the Harlan case, all of which goes to show that the liberty of no man is safe as long as the humblest black man may be held as a peon or a slave. NEWSPAPER DRAWS COLOR LINE IN PRIZE CONTEST. Race Resents Insult by Advising Withdrawal of Its Patronage. In one of the large cities of the country a certain newspaper opened a voting contest for women. The prize for the winner was announced as being a trip to Europe. One of the bright, intelligent young colored women of the town entered the contest and had received 800 votes when the manager of the contest found out her racial identity and informed the young lady that she was not eligible, so it is said. This is but another instance of the unfair treatment which respectable, honest and industrious colored people are daily receiving at the hands of the so called best white people. From such injustice and hypocrisy may God deliver us. When the action of the contest manager became known one of the prominent colored citizens of the town immediately advised every member of his race who had been reading the paper which drew the color line to read it no more. This was a manly stand to take, and it is hoped that his advice will be strictly adhered to. Nothing is so mean and base as the act of one person or persons to withhold from others that which is legally and civilly due them simply because of their color. When one looks at the present status of things, however, from a moral standpoint and from the standpoint of honesty it would seem that the colored people should rather rejoice in the fact that they are not of the class here spoken of. As Dr. Booker T. Washington well says, we belong to a young race, a race which has opposition and prejudice to fight, a race whose future is before and not behind it. If others would be mean and low and cowardly, let us be good and kind, honest and brave. The Benefit of Summer Schools. The custom of holding summer normals at the various institutions for higher learning is becoming more general. It gives teachers an opportunity to perfect themselves in those branches which they desire to know more about and also brings them in direct contact with the more advance methods of imparting instruction. It is well to hold such summer schools, and even a larger number of them would no doubt receive full patronage. Miss Jones an Honor Pupil at Ithaca. At the third public recital of the advanced students of the Ithaca (N. Y.) Conservatory of Music recently held Miss Clarice Jones, daughter of Attorney Thomas L. Jones of Washington, was given the honors of the evening by her finished knowledge of the critical works of the old masters, which were used on this occasion.

B. SPORTS AND THE ST SPORTS AND THE STAGE By Leon Pryor BERT WILLIAMS AND AIDA WALKER TO JOIN NEXT SEASON. At last the leaders of negro performers, Mr. Bert Williams, the colored comedians, who at present is starring in Follies and Mrs. Aida Overton Walker, the greatest little actress the negroes have ever produced, are talking the way the people like, and that is to join forces and come out next season as Williams and Walker. It is true that we have not up to this date found any man who could take the place of the late George Walker, but critics say that Miss Walker is capable of being as good a partner as Bert will ever get. ILLER VINCENT WILL TOUR THE COUNTRY. One of the greatest negro wrestlers the world has ever known, who for the last two years has beat everybody in and around Chicago, will start on a wrestling tour taking in all of the western states. Mr. Vincent, if he was to be given the chance, would, according to the sports around Chicago even beat the white champion, Frank Gotch, whom he has tried to get matched with but always turned down on the account of his color. But he says he will do like Johnson, hound Gotch until the public demands that Gotch wrestle him. THE ROCKIES BALL TEAM The R. M. A. baseball team will start their practice games at 23rd and Welton streets the later part of next week. Those wishing to join call at the club. LANGFORD BEATS McVEY At last we have heard, from far off Australia that Sam Langford beat Sam McVey in a 20-round contest by decision. The fight was one worth seeing and it is reported that Langford put up the fight of his life. It is probable that these two husky boxers will be matched again in the near future. JACKSONVILLE, FLA. The negro business men of the city of Jacksonville, Fla., are contemplating a big theatre that will cost $40,000. It will be a big addition to that city. THE NEWPORT AND ITS BOYS Well the boys are altogether once more at the Newport Club on Arapahoe street, and they are all there with the big smile and the glad hand shake. The two big bosses are Richard Frazier and Tommy Lewis, and their entertainers are as follows: William Rollins (Scoggie) the Pet, Ed Holland, the joker of the house; Robt. Maxwell (think or sweet Breeze); William Kempton, (alias, the Bug); and they will guarantee to give you a run for your money or one big round of pleasure is in store for all visitors and members, and gentlemen are all invited to visit the Newport Club, 1845 Arapahoe street. JOHNSON AND HART The peerless comedians of great fame, Rosamond Johnson and Billy Hart, have combined forces and will be a headliner. Mr. Hart is the late partner to Dan Avery, the deceased and Johnson, partner to the late Bob Cole, and their ability as comedians need not be mentioned as they have always been great favorites with the public, as they both know how to produce the goods. The great Dabney Theatre in Washington, which has been running successfully for the past three years, will in the next few months, be improved to the extent of $30,000, which will no doubt make it the finest colored theatre in the world. So it proves that if we as a race will give our brothers utmost support that he will in time show what a great battle he is fighting and what a name he will leave for the benefit of the negroes, or in other words it will show that he was a race man, and worked for the betterment of his people. DENVER JACK JOHNSON, THE SONG BIRD. Not the prize fighting Jack Johnson, but a cousin and the cute singing Jack Johnson of this city left last week for Los Angeles, where he will join the coast quartette, and he is wished much success by all of his friends, as he was a jolly good fellow at all times, and ready whenever the gong sounded. SAVOY THEATRE, MEMPHIS. Word comes from the Savoy theatre of Memphis, Tenn., that during the past year the management had the pleasure of working 200 different acts which proves that the negro who tries to do will get there. CECIEL MOORE & CO. What is reported to be the hottest thing in vaudeville. Well, Miss Cecelie Moore and her company of hotentotts are supposed to be the greatest hit in New York. The act is highly praised by all writers. And there is very little chance for the company to play elsewhere but New York for the next three months to FAVORS MANHOOD RIGHTS. Recorder Henry Lincoln Johnson Defends His Atlanta Speech. Anent the story circulated to the effect that the Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, was opposed to the participation of the race in politics is stoutly denied by Mr. Johnson. It is well known that he is one of the leading men in Georgia and has done much for the advancement of the race along all profitable lines in education, business and among the large secret societies. As a member of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows he is recognized as a man of more than ordinary executive ability. He is also a successful lawyer and a member of the Atlanta (Ga.) bar. It is begging the question, therefore, to even suggest that such a man would be opposed to members of his race taking part in or exercising their legal right to participate in things political. In reference to his recent speech in Atlanta Mr. Johnson says: "I was addressing a very large convention of both white and colored delegates and a large number of white HON. HENRY L. JOHNSON. and colored spectators at the Orpheum theater, in Atlanta. I had observed that the primary mission of the Republican party was one of emancipation and that they had accomplished bodily emancipation of the colored race under the final decree signed by Mr. Lincoln in his emancipation proclamation; that the Republican party in Georgia must now address itself to the emancipation of the white people in Georgia from their seemingly inexorable mental and moral bondage; that Providence had especially and munificently endowed the state of Georgia with those natural resources the development of which would be best conserved under economic policies. "The fact that fourteen colored men and one woman had been lynched in our native state in the past nine months was proof positive of the mental and moral thraalthom of some of the people in Georgia who control the state and that its only hope for disenchantment lay in the beneficent policies and spirit of the Republican party, manifested under its laws and in their orderly execution that officeholding, as a recent Democratic paper had alleged, was not responsible for any of these outbreaks; that the matter of officeholding is not the aim and destiny of any great party and should not be its principles are the main things and officeholding merely incidental." WOMEN AGAINST LYNCHING. Cambridge and Boston Public Unite In Big Protest Meeting. Under the leadership of Mrs. Mary James a well attended mass meeting to protest against lynching was held in the St. Stephen Baptist church in Cambridge, Mass., recently, at which Mrs. M. C. Hall of Boston presided. The women of Cambridge, Boston and vicinity are alive to the best interest of the race and are more determined in their efforts to create public sentiment against the lynching of human beings than ever before. Among those who delivered strong addresses on the subject besides Mrs. James were Mrs. Addie H. Jewell, Mrs. C. G. Morgan, Mrs. Alexander Wright and the Rev. Johnson W. Hill. Mrs. J. W. Hill is also much interested in the work and assisted in opening the meeting. It was decided to hold such meetings monthly and arrange to have different speakers each time in order to get the views of a larger number of those interested in this work for the protection of human life. There is no mistake about it, agitation along right lines is bound to bring good results. There was a time when bloodhounds were used almost solely to hunt down runaway slaves. That wholesome parttime having lost its usefulness in that particular, bloodhounds are used now in various ways and for various purposes, the latest being to run down the white murderers who shot up the Hillsville (Va.) court. The Loraine has the same moving pictures as the Princess and Isis. Spend an hour seeing the pictures at 725 26th avenue, just across from the postoffice.
