VOTE THE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN TICKET
TRANKLIN'S PAPER
THE STATESMAN
Twenty-Third Year
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 18, 1912.
KEEP YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE LION'S MOUTH.
Arnold's Democratic Aversion to Negroes Together With The Support He Receives From Organized Labor, Makes It Certain That It Is Suicidal For Them To Support The Citizens Party.
We can pity the poor, blind, visionary Negroes who think "recall" does not We are against him for their sake. We are not yet ready to commit suicide.
THE support which union labor is giving to the Citizens Party confirms us in the belief that Henry J. Arnold and his crew of fake reformers will prove the worst possible choice for colored voters next Tuesday.
Despite our sympathy with union wage earners in their endeavor to get the most that they can for their labor, we cannot forget the bar which they raise against us in all but a few unions. The political activity of union labor is always directed toward benefitting members of the organization. Therefore such unusual support as they have given Arnold and his running mates, spells suicide for Negroes who join with them. The Statesman has charged Arnold with unfriendliness to Negroes, and has said that we would not find employment on public works if he is elected. The large part union labor plays in his campaign, makes our employment the more impossible should he win.
The Republican Ticket Is Good The Platform Is The Best.
Despite the fact that the Citizen's party is standing in the public gaze, smiting its breast and calling on all to witness that it is holy, the colored voter is mindful of the fact that Henry J. Arnold, like the interpreters of the United States constitution before the Civil war, restricts his pleasant promises and fair dealings to white citizens. This Pharisicalical reform party, and the Speer Democrats as well, offer nothing to the colored voter except the chance to be the horse which shall carry them to victory, in the case of Speer, we need make no arguments. Such voters as are satisfied with conditions as they have been for the past eight years, will vote to elect Hunter and the rest of the Speer Democratic ticket. Thus as are not satisfied with the great burden of taxation and the methods that party has used, will protest by electing its opponents.
The Citizens' party has done nothing and promises to do everything. There is not a human weakness it does not say it will do away with. Yet strange to say, it is Bonfils of the Post, Sullivan of Cripple Creek notoriously, Arnold, the inefficient postmaster, and the failure in business, who are the reformers. We know well that there are a number of honest, sincere supporters of the Citizens' ticket, men and women above reproach, but they are only the deluded followers of designing leaders. Because of this fact and because of the need which the Republican party has to win this election to be prepared to win the national election in the fall, we are for the Republican ticket. Its platform is businesslike, offering improvements in city affairs that can be brought about. Its candidates average better than those on other tickets. Right here we wish to say that it is impossible to gather together on any ticket men all on a common level of excellence. There are better and worse. Therefore complaints against one man on the Republican ticket is no argument for the whole ticket that opposes Republicans; nor is praise of one Democrat reason for voting against all Republicans. There is no sanctification granted our party that exempts it from human error. But one thing the colored people know from bitter experience, that for every right given them to labor or enjoy the fruits of labor, their thanks are due Republicans. For every loss of rights, their blame is due to Democrats. It is true that some Republicans have sided in with Democrats in their injustice, but some of the angels in Heaven followed Lucifer when he discarded the celestial city for the brimstone lake. Some Democrats have been most liberal in giving places to colored supporters, but none of them have been able to keep their party from passing legislation
injuring us. Let's give credit where it is due, but at the same time let us be sensible and keep the proportion of things. The shortcomings of the Democratic party, or of the Citizens' party, which is led by disgruntled Democrats, loom larger than those of Republicans.
It is so much easier to find fault than it is to do good, that it is no wonder that vote seeker criticise their opponents, neglecting to prove their own worthiness. We now wish to show the strength of the Republican party, and why it should be the colored voters' choice on Tuesday.
First of all, the Republican party has long held our allegiance, so that our support of it and our participation in its machinery calls for no readjustments due to friction between the races. The Republican party does violence to its traditions and sentiments whenever it mistreats us, and it therefore is guilty of showing prejudice less than any set of Americans. This general truth defies villiers to controvert. They can point one or another prejudiced white Republican, but not nearly so many or so powerful as can be shown in other parties. They can tell what the Republican party has not done, but they dare not tell what it has done for us. In short, in a country in which we have recently been slaves, the Republican party, more than any other, numbers the men who would see us become citizens in the fullest sense of the word.
This attitude of the party toward the Negro is its attitude toward every submerged class. It means to use the highest intelligence of the best citizens for the benefit of the least. Therefore it is opposed to the revolutionary ideas whereby the Citizens' party, for instance, would tear down the courts and recall officials, on the theory that the masses know more than the classes. This proposition alone is dangerous enough for us to vote for the Republican ticket, had it nothing else to commend it than its opposition to such mob rule.
The candidates of the party are a host in themselves. Beginning with Dewey C. Bailey for mayor, they are men of good repute. They are men who have been tried in other places than the ones they seek, and have made good. The party has been happy in getting successful men to lead it. It is not offering a lot of make-shift office-hunters who need to apologize for their past. They do not represent a slavish subservience to union labor, nor to capital, nor to religious creed, nor to any section of the city. The tongue of the vilifier has charged them with being hirelings of the public utility corporations, but voters should see through such a palpable attempt of the mob to make itself appear holy by lowering better people to its own standard. Republicans
mean our loss of rights and property in the long run. They have a confidence in the future action of the masses which we have not. But for the Negroes who intentionally support the cause of union labor, we cannot be so charitable. They have present knowledge, they have had past experience in their own lives, they have daily examples of the utter refusal of union labor to permit negro workmen to enjoy profitable employment in trades which unionism controls. They know or ought to know that unionism has had laws passed in several states that have deprived the negro train porter of his job. Union cooks have driven negro waiters from Denver hotels. Even among the hod carries of Denver there has been organized a second union composed entirely of whites out of protest against the presence of black laborers in the old union.
THESE ARE FACTS. Unionism is for Arnold, so says the News and the Post, We are against him for their sake. We are not yet ready to commit suicide.
M.
DEWEY C. BAILEY, Republican Candidate for Mayor.
Dewey C. Bailey, the Republican nominee for mayor, enjoys the unusual distinction of having received the least criticism that has come to the standard bearer of any party in Denver for many years. Even such past masters at the art of mud slinging as the Post and the News have found no fault in him and have been forced to ask his defeat because the public utility corporations of Denver want him elected. Their silence leads us to believe that he never robbed an orchard while he was a boy, nor sold out Denver for corporation money since he has been a man. We are certain that he has not had to disgorge any trust funds that he misappropriated, he has never robbed poor colored people and widows and orphans in Durango or anywhere else. He has not been a failure at anything, and in fact the silence of the opposition is so eloquent in its praise of the Republican nominee that we are certain that the voters who wish Denver to be well governed and in a business-like manner, can vote for Bailey as the best possible choice.
Maybe the corporations want Bailey elected. We suspect that they do. They pay a large amount of taxes, and just like the little taxpayers, they would like to see Denver economically administered. Vote for Bailey and the straight Republican ticket.

not a revolution, and their platform pledges are practical and will be kept. They have picked their candidates with an eye to their usefulness to the city, not to satisfy the Christian Union on the one hand, as has the Citizens' party, nor the denizens of the lower world, as have the Democrats. A vote for the Republican ticket is a vote for Greater Denver.

OUR HOUSEHOLD.
Master of Ceremonies, Brother Odd Fellows, Worthy Inmates, Ladies and Gentlemen:
In the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty-three, the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows was founded in America by Peter Ogden.
This organization was created for the purpose of aiding and assisting each other, for uniting in one grand body in energetic defense of our race, as well as develop and elevate the mental and moral character of our Brotherhood.
In the very beginning it was declared that it was not good for man to be alone. Woman in all ages has been man's helpmate. So, realizing the good influence of woman to bless man and to spread the principles upon which the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows was founded, the Household of Ruth was established.

HEALTH CULTURE CLUB'S BANQUET
Many Prominent Visitors Attend Annual Function.
STATISTICS ON DEATH RATE.
In Learned Address on Health Conditions Among Afro-Americans the Rev. J. Andrew Patterson Says Race Must Change Mode of Life or Suffer Fate of the Indian.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Cambridge, Mass.—The annual banquet of the Health Culture club of this city recently held in the Rush A. M. E. Zlon church, of which the Rev. Dr. C. Fairfax is pastor, was the occasion for a large gathering of prominent citizens, educators and professional men and women, who are deeply interested in the work of the organization. Besides the principal speaker of the evening, Dr. Joshua A. Brockett, Madam Noble and George R. Margetson took part in the splendid literary program rendered.
The banquet orator was the Rev. J. Andrew Patterson of New York, the
1920
REV. J. ANDREW PATTERSON. noted author, lecturer and psychophysical culturist. Dr. Patterson has given years of study and research on subjects relating to health conditions among the colored people of the United States. He has also made careful investigations from time to time of the death rate among our people as to cause, age and kind of disease and the sanitary condition of residence, whether city or country, in which large numbers of colored people live.
Dr. Patterson's address was listened to with close attention. He said in part:
to with close attention. He said in part: "The signing of the emancipation proclamation by the immortal Lincoln was a long stride toward the colored man's freedom, but the sudden transition from the forced simple life of slavery into the unknown complex conditions and responsibilities of freedom carried with it a calamity to the race more appalling to contemplate than the passing of the American Indian. The Indian on the border line of civilization needed to adopt but few of the vices and customs of modern civilization to exterminate him.
"On the other hand, the colored man is functioning right in the midst of a thousand vices, customs and conditions that will destroy any race. And as a sincere student of this staggering question, being armed with irrefutable facts, I warn the colored people of America that unless something is done to stop this maddening dance of death before the twilight of another century falls the nations of the earth will have wailed the dirge of another lost race. The real facts concerning the true moral and physical condition of the race relating to the increasing death rate are little understood by ministers and teachers, who hold the destiny of the race, as it were, in their hands.
"Not only is this generation innately inferior physically to the untebellum Negro, but for lack of knowledge the vast majority is not and cannot consume its energy. In many sections marriage is safe waning. Among those who are married version to fearing families is a scourge in that is blasting at the very foundation stone of the future race.
"Of every 100 colored children born fifty die before the second birthday is reached. Is that all? No. Unmentioned thousands pass who never know an independent heart pulse.
"Insanity is rapidly increasing among Negroes under twenty-five. Consumption, or modern tuberculosis, is becoming an epidemic almost as prevalent as the conventional bad cold. Already the young people under twenty-five are dying three to one white.
"There are those who will tell you that all is well, that there is no danger of the race dying off. I ask as one having authority. 'What will the future be?'"
The speaker told of the wonderful work being done by the mind and body culture movement, or the new health culture, which principles, if applied, would soon remedy the present condition of the race.
LIFE IN CENTRAL AFRICA.
How Missionaries Help the Natives.
The Feudal System Explained.
Hampton, Va.-The Rev. A. G. Fraser, president of Kandy college, Ceylon, spoke at the Hampton institute recently on "Life In Central Africa." He described most vividly his impressions of African life—the singing of "Holy, Holy, Holy" by natives who had been freed from the control of Arab slave dealers; the crowds of little children suffering from famine and disease, the dying of thousands and the wiping out of whole villages by hunger, the system of selecting the leading chiefs of Uganda, the cruelty of heathenism and the reforms in the social life of the African people through native Christians.
Mr. Fraser declared that the people of Uganda were not savage. They have had 450 years of history, a feudal system which provides for the selection of the best men as rulers, the influence of Christian missionaries for over thirty years and a highly developed spoken language which the Christians have helped them to convert into a written language of rare force and flexibility.
The villages of Uganda are found on the tops of low hills averaging from 100 to 300 feet in height and are separated by slow moving rivers. Up to 1822 the people of Uganda were extremely powerful. From 1822 to 1877 there came a reaction and a downward movement similar to that which came to the English nation during the reign of Charles II.
The cruelty of heathenism is well brought out in the attitude of the natives toward the aged, the sick and the young, helpless children, as well as in the attitude of the powerful lords toward their weaker brothers.
ESCAPES AN AWFUL FATE.
A thousand tongues could not express the gratitude of Mrs. J. E. Cox, of Jollet, Ill., for her wonderful deliverance from an awful foul. "Typhoid pneumonia had left me with a dreadful cough," she writes. "Sometimes I had such awful coughing spells I thought I would die. I could get no help from doctor's treatment or other medicines till I used Dr. King's New Discovery. But I owe my life to this wonderful remedy, for I scarcely cough at all now." Quick and safe, it's the most reliable of all throat and lung medicines. Every

Unfairness of Public Segregation. All attempts at segregation in our public school system should be met with the strongest possible opposition. The same must be done in regard to public conveyances, such as railroads, steamboats, street cars and the like. The false notion of some people that separation of the races breeds friendship and promotes peace is as illogical as damming a river to keep it from overflowing its banks. No class of citizens in a republic like ours should be humiliated by selfish and unjust legislation.

CONFERENCE TO CONTINUE.
Permanent Committee Named to Arrange For Meeting In 1915. At the final session of the international conference on the Negro, held at Tuskegee, Ala., in April, the matter of appointing a committee to carry out the suggestions of the committee on declarations to provide for a continuance of these international meetings was referred back to the original committee with power to act.
This committee after due deliberation agreed to name Dr. Booker T. Washington, who served as presiding officer of the first conference, and Emmett J. Scott, its secretary, together with Dr. Hollis B. Frissell of Hampton, Va., and Robert E. Park of Wollaston, Mass., as members of this committee and authorized them to add three others to their number, these to serve as a permanent executive committee of a general committee, referred to further on, for the purpose of making the necessary arrangements for a second international conference on the Negro three years hence.
It was agreed that this general com-

mittee shall consist of the members of the executive, including the three others to be named, together with the members of the committee on declarations and other members to be nominated by the executive committee within the next twelve months. As finally constituted it is intended that the general committee shall represent, if possible, all the countries in which the Negro constitutes any considerable portion of the population as well as all the interests that are concerned in any way with the education, moral or religious, of the Negro or the investigation and study of Negro life or the employment of Negro labor.
The report is signed by J. R. Williams, director of education of Jamaica; W. I. Thomas, professor of sociology, University of Chicago; Maurice S. Evans, representative of the British African society, London, England; James Denton, principal of the Fourah Bay college, Sierra Leone, Africa; Isiah B.

PLANS FOR GREATER WORK.
Principal and Trustees of the Bartlett School Issue Statement. According to statements recently made by Principal N. C. Bruce of the Bartlett Agricultural and Industrial school, Dalton, Mo., is doing a much needed work among the masses of people in the community. The school was started four years ago. Mr. Bruce being its founder. Up to the present time it has been supported by individual contributions from friends directly interested in its success.
The trustees of the school, however, have been convinced that the institution is worthy of substantial support and to that end have issued an appeal to the public for funds with which to place the work upon a firm footing. Among those interested as trustees are such prominent men in St. Louis as Mr. Clavin Woodward, Rabbi Samuel Sale, Joseph Wheless, Frank L. Williams and Robert Gurney. Better facilities for farm work and more room for classes and dormitories are among the urgent needs.
The district and surrounding country in which the school is located have a colored population of some 60,000; hence the demand for an institution of learning convenient to these people can readily be appreciated. The literary course prepares students for entrance to high schools and academies. Besides the principal, there are six well qualified instructors, with literary classes in the morning and classes in agriculture in the afternoon. Mr. Bruce is hard at work upon plans by which a full equipment for dairy and poultry farming may be secured. More farm land and a brick-yard are among the other industrial branches mentioned in the appeal as prepared by the principal and sanctioned by the board of trustees.
Okolona School Ends Prosperous Year
The Okolona (Miss.) Industrial school has completed another successful school year. At the graduation exercises recently held the principal speaker was Mr. George W. Cable, the noted author, who delivered an instructive address.
The institution is doing good and is worthy of more financial assistance than it has thus far received.

Ithaca, N. Y.—An immense audience
that completely filled the spacious mu-
sic hall witnessed the exercises of the
Ithaca Conservatory of Music in con-
nection with the “graduation recital”
of Miss Clarice Jones of Washington,
daughter of Hon. Thomas L, Jones, a
leading member of the bar of the Dis-
trict of Columbia, on Friday evening.
May 10.
‘Miss Jones achieved a gratifying tri-
umph and interpreted with skill and
rare intelligence a repertory of plano
scores embracing the most difficult
productions of the world's most cele-
brated composers of classic music. She
was assisted by Miss Allce MacPher-
son, violinist; Miss Sarah Maybury, ac-
companist, and by the conservatory or-
chestra. Miss Jones was not at all
nervous and handled the responsive
keys with a coolness and accuracy that
surprised as well as delighted her tu-
tors and fellow students. ‘The recital
ranks with the best that have ever been
given at this historic institution, and
Miss Jones was overwhelmed with con.
gratulations at the close of her bril-
Mant performance,
She was the reciplent of profuse and
beautiful floral offerings at the hands
of her host of friends. The incident ts
Fegarded as especially noteworthy from
the fact that Miss Jones happens to be
the only member of the colored race
enrolled this season at the Ithaca Con-
servatory of Music, the musical de.
partment of proud Cornell university.
Fo illustrate the magnitude of her
triumph, {t-may be stated that Miss
Jones’ numbers at the plano included
scherzo and rondo from Sonata A ma-
jor (Beethoven): variations, B flat mi-
nor (Mendelssohn): Nocturne © minor
(Chopin): Rhapsodle No. 12 (Liszt),
bacarolle (Goddard). Caprice Espanol

DURHAM SCHOOL NOTES.
iy RMR i pe I cine ae Stuee cae Retest et
veals Many Interesting Facts.
‘The report recently issued by the
Armstrong association on the results
of an investigation made among the
colored pupils of the Durham school
in Philadelphia disclosed the fact that
there is a sad latk of results obtained
for the puplis of this school. ‘The {n-
vestigation showed in a remarkable
manner the failure of the present ele-
mentary schoo! curriculum to benefit
the youth who ts compelled to earn his
living upon leaving school.
Professor Brumbaugh, superintend-
ent of schools, was impressed so
strongly by the array of facts listed
by James 8, Hiatt, secretary of the
Public Education association, who
headed the committee, that he Imme-
diately made plans to have the board
of education take up the question of
allowing the association to conduct a
similar investigation among the white
children of the lower grades.
In the Durham school investigation
168 puplis were listed by the tield sec-
retary of the Armstrong association
uring the latter months of the school
year 1910-11. This list Incinded six
ty-tour boys and ninety-nine girls,
grouped as to age: fourteen years,
Seventy-four; fifteen years, forty-one:
sixteen years, thirty-Hive: seventeen
years, eight: eighteen years, three;
nineteen years, two.
Of these pupils ninety-seven return-
ed to school in the fall of 1911, three
were transferred to other schools, ff-
ty-six left school, and seven went to
higher schools.
‘A long list of questions put to all
the pupils registered in the spring
showed that thirty-one of those re-
turning worked during the summer,
sixty-two did not, and thirtees refused
to answer. Of those not returning
twenty-four worked, thirteen did not,
and twenty were not found.
When the investigation was first
Started it was intended to consider
separately the boys and girls who
worked during summer and returned
to school und those working, but did
not return. it was thought that this
would be important because of the dif-
ferent character of employment which
would be chosen, After going over in
dividual cuses It was found that prac-
tically no difference was to be found
in the kina or work wken up or im
wages received, -
Judge Brown Believes In Square Deal.
‘That it is a duty which*every Amer
iean of the white race owes to himself
and to his white fellow citizens quite
as much as he does to the Negro to see
to it, so far ag he is able, that the
color of a man's skin shall not subject
him to insult, oppression and injustice
in a country which boasts of Its de-
mocracy, its Iberty and the political
equality of its citizens is the opinion
recently expressed publicly by Judge
Edward 0. Brown of the appellate
court in Chicago.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION’S
SEVENTH ANNUAL MEET
Campus of Howard University”Select-
ed For Big Scholastic Event,
Washington.—Much interest is being
manifested in college and high school
circles in this clty on account of the
seventh annual meet of the Interscho-
lastic Athletic association, which will
take place on the campus of Howard
university on Memorial day, May 30.
‘The meet promises to be the best
the association has ever had. There
will be eleven track and field events
for scholastic athletes, four open
handicap events, and relays will be ar-
ranged to meet the needs of those who
attend for spectacular races. There
will be no elementary school events in
this meet as formerly, as the Public
Schools Athletic league will hold out-
door field games June 8.
‘Two secondary school championships
are involved in this meet. ‘The scho-
lastic champlonship of the middle At-
lantie states and the High schoo! cham-
plonship of the Public Schools Athlet-
fc league of this city are at stake.
‘The local schoolboys are keyed up
over the event, as it 1s expected this
year that the competition will be
closer than ever, and the outcome ts
much In doubt. The strongest appear-
ing contenders seem to be M Street,
Armstrong and Howard academy.
Tech has captured honors for two
successive years, but this year M
Street High seems to have a good
chance to take over the champlonsbip.
‘Captain Burwell of Armstrong seems
to have the field all to himself in the
100 and 440. Roscoe Taylor and Ira
Warf are stronger and more expert-
enced and should be able successors to
Otis Walker. Duckett, a freshman.
and Hunt. a junior, seem destined to
finish among the leaders in whatever
they start in.
Randall of M street high, Logan,
Johnson, Miller, Dickinson and Loften
are a few whose ability 1s most mark-
‘ed. It {s contidently assumed by the
‘M.street coach that Randall will set
‘new marks in the shot event Dick-
Inson and Miller expect to score high
in the events, Howard academy boys
‘have been so much overshadowed by
collegiate events In the past two or
three years thgt a true line on the
preps Is not obtainable. ‘This year,
however, they are branching out on
their own hook fo a manner that be-
tokens surprises. Baltimore promises
to be in line this year with a number
of dark horses. A new physical direc-
tor is putting a lot of life in things
over in the Monumental City.

HELP WANTED.
The Dear Field Settlement of Ne
frces Ine Weld. sounty,, Caloradb, hag
283 families located, who control 4,
acres of land, by homestead and des-
ert act. The settlement has a popula-
Hon of 7 and sll are jubllant qe
the prospects of a prosperous seasva.
Those who stayed in the settlement
the past winter are not complaining
of their hard time and loss of stock;
unfortunately most of thelr horses
died from exposure and lack of food,
as the crops were not sufficient last
year to tide them over the long win-
ter. Like thousands of others, who
suffering from last year’s drouth,
some are {n need of assistance in the
way of horses and eeeds. The white
people all over the state are banding
together to help thelr unfortunate
brothers and sisters in the country.
It would be a most commendable act
{f some of our philanthropists and
ministers would take upon themselves
the duty of assisting these deserving
people, who are sacrificing for the
hetterment of the condition of the
race. They need about six teams and
about 5,000 pounds of seeds and about
5,000 pounds of feed.
These people are not beggars and
are willing to give such security as
they may have to return the money
from the proceeds of their earnings.
One old couple, Mr. and Mrs. J. M.
‘Thomas, who had in a crop of corn
last year, lost both of their horses
and have given up all hopes of assist-
more, to put in a crop, with a hoe to
fee dtheir chickens and pigs.
Mr. Howard Troutman, who has re
cently returned from the settlement,
can verify this statement and also
vouch for the prospects If these peo-
ple are assisted.
There are locations for about ten
families on government land. We
need a blacksmith, carpenter, plaster-
e rand brick mason, as those who are
able to build are improving their
homes. Mechanics who were located
in the district would be benefitted.
We hope that the people who are
in a position to help the deserving
in Dear Field Settlement will investi-
gate and lend their assistance.

Cheyenne and Fort Russell Happenings
On Friday evening, May 10th, the W. M. M. society met for the last time in this quarter with Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ashford. The session was called at 7 p. m. by the president, Mrs. M. H. Hamler. After the following program was rendered the business part of the meeting was taken up:
A most beautiful instrumental solo by Miss Lillian Jefferson.
Great laughter was aroused by Mr. Blakeneny's recitation of Paul Lawrence Dunbar's "Little Brown Baby with a Sparkling Eye."
Miss Thistle's vocal solo, "Just a Wearying for You," was rendered in her usual sweet way.
The monologue, recited by Mr. L Gaskin, caused the house to go almost wild with applause.
Mrs. M. H. Hamler read a very interesting and instructive paper on the "Duty of a Missionary." This paper set forth the true spirit with which the mind of every missionary should be imbued.
The last, but not the least in interest, was a beautiful solo by Mr. H. C. Jefferson. Everybody knew that something good was going to be heard when they saw Mr. Jefferson's name on the program. This solo, "The Wide Open Sea," certainly caused the audience to have a wide open eye and a wide open ear before the singer was through.
Her full term having been served, Mrs. Hamler resigned her chairmanship. On account of the lateness of the hour, the election of new officers was postponed until the next meeting.
A unanimous vote of thanks was extended to the president for her faithful service during her leadership.
Mrs. Jigetts gave a delicious fish supper Thursday evening, May 9th, for the benefit of Calvary Baptist church. The entertainment was a grand success in every way.
After a ten days' stay, Rev. Mendenhail has returned to his home city, Buxton, Iowa.
Mr. C. C. Boyd of Colorado Springs has joined his wife here. It is very likely that he will make this city his home indefinitely.
Mr. and Mrs. Calverin Boyd entertained Mr. and Mrs. Chatman with a card party Thursday evening, May 9.
Miss Katherine Thistle had as her guests at the Saturday matinee, to see the Campus, Miss Cave and Miss Jefferson.
Mr. Filmore has suffered a bereavement. His little boy, who was operated on for appendicitis, passed away May 5th. Mr. Filmore has the heartfelt sympathy of all friends and neighbors.
Although the inclementy of the weather kept many church members from attending service, the solemnness of sentiment on Mother's day was well realized in every home.
DOINGS OF THE "SHOOTING E."
This troop considers itself as having the best gallery shots in the post. It has challenged every outfit here, but none has responded; it therefore declares itself champion.
Troop desires to know what the trouble is with Corp. Johnson and his team.
Sergts. Warren, Thomas, Hipshire, Web and several others say they will right dress all comers on the rifle range for the coin.
Besides many excellent rifle shots, the troop has a reputable baseball nine. All the old timers in this regiment and many in other regiments remember the crack team the troop had in 1902. No other troop, battery or company team in the army had any chance of winning against this one. It was said that probably one or two of the regimental army teams could outplay it. But this, on account of it being impractical for it to meet the teams in question, was not proven. The names of those on the present nine and their several positions are as follows:
Web, left field; Smith, center field; Wright, pitcher; Viena, catcher; Washington, short stop; Newton, first base; Tisdell, second base; Dixon, third base; Harris, right field.
The troop has also some very good comedians. The most noted among them are Mastin and Wright, comedians and buck dancers.
First Sergeant Craig of the troop is waiting for his retirement papers to return, having served, with his double time, over thirty years. The men of the troop wish the sergeant all the success and happiness that it is possible for him to enjoy in retirement.
Blacksmith Turner is the next oldest soldier in the troop. The blacksmith has served 25 years straight and a little over 3 years double time. He is the oldest and best blacksmith in the army, so says Dr. Edwards, who is an authority on the trade.
Next among the older men of the troop is Private Goldin. This man quit the army a little over 20 years ago. He made up his mind to re-enlist and came to Troop A about three months ago. Having served his first five years in Troop E, when he suddenly became dissatisfied a few weeks ago, he transferred back to the old home.
Sergt. Hague of the troop received

The instruction class continues to grow in size and interest. All persons contemplating membership with this church are asked to avail themselves of this opportunity. Every Wednesday night at 9 o'clock is the instruction.
In spite of the inclementy of the weather last Sunday, the services, from a point of attendance, finance and spirituality, were above the ordinary. The mothers rendered a most acceptable program. The men's Bible class that was postponed from organizing last Sabbath will be affected tomorrow at 10 a. m.
The congregation and friends are once more reminded through these columns of the appointed time to raise our funds for renovation purposes, being the last of May. Your co-operation to finance this work successfully will be appreciated.
Denver. Colo.
I had suffered with bronchitis, loss of appetite and lost flesh for almost a year until I started taking the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea. I immediately saw a change and began gaining flesh and could eat almost anything with a relish. I soon got so that a cold did not effect me. I had been confined to the bed from ten to twelve days before taking the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea, and I believe too much cannot be said in its praise. I cheerfully recommend it to anyone suffering from bronchitis and lung trouble.

Miss Carter has visited all sections of the country in the interest of the work since the last biennial meeting. Many women have been helped by her timely advice and unselfish devotion to the object and aim of the association. Her visit to California, South Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma and other states in the southwest elicited the highest commendation of both pulpit and press.
Odd Fellows' Thanksgiving Service.
The Odd Fellows of the District of Columbia Household of Ruth, past grand masters' council and patrilarchy have completed arrangements for the annual Thanksgiving services to be held on Sunday, May 12. Twenty-six Odd Fellow lodges, one patrilarchy, one past grand masters' council and a number of Households of Ruth will hold joint services in the Metropolitan Baptist church.

Miss Burroughs Speaks For Y. M. C. A.
The recent address delivered by Miss Nannle H. Burroughs in Pittsburgh in the interest of the Young Men's Christian association was fraught with hope and encouragement. He sound logic in urging vigorous and correct manhood sent a thrill of admiration through the audience. Miss Burroughs' theme was "Be a Man." which she handled in a masterly way. The address was reported by Miss Elizabeth Jones and appeared in the Pittsburgh Courier of April 27.

a letter from Sergt. Major Robinson, who retired a few weeks before Christmas. The Sergt. Major says that he is having great success in his practice of Mechano-Therapy, the drugless healer. He says that he has as many patients as he can handle well. The friends of the sergeant major throughout the regiment are glad to hear from him and hope that he will continue to be successful in the practice of his profession.
The Y. S. C. club has made a hit among members of the post. It is made up of some of the fine young men of talent. They say that they are the grieflemen of Troop E. They are handsome and graceful dancers, and are constant entertainers. The following is a roster of its members: Benjamin Winston, president; Roy Tisdell, vice president; Hezekiah Tumpkins, treasurer; Otis Brooks, secretary; Hezekiah Tumpkins, critic; Ernest Edwards, Luther Lewis and Walter Harris, sergeants at arms; Creg Taylor, counsellor; Samuel Blanton, Dean Washington, Robert Perkins, Elander Webster, William Johnson and James Smith, wardens.
Well, Troop E, we must bid you adieu. Next Saturday we shall visit Troop F. So get your dope straight; ened out, F.
