Cheyenne and Fort Russell Happenings Twenty-Third Year Cheyenne Fort H Ha CHEYENNE, WYO. On Thursday evening of last week the Searchlight Club prepared a progressive luncheon. The first course consisting of bullion and waffles, was served by the Mrs. Muse, Mitchell and J. S. Baker, at 814 W. 19th street. The second course, consisting of hot rolls and chicken salad, was given by the Mrs. Ashford and Crutchfield at 620 West 19th street. The third course, sandwiches and coffee, was prepared by the Mrs. Redd and J. A. Baker, at 1144 West 20th street. The fourth and last course, punch and cake, was served by the Mrs. Ward and Dewese, at 919 West 20th street. There was an immense crowd out and all had an enjoyable time. Rev. Mitchell preached an awakening sermon at Calvary Baptist church Sunday morning and Rev. McGlinnis nobly filled the same pulpit in the evening. Mrs. J. S. Baker, who has been sufferer for many months with rheumatism, is very much improved by having Mrs. Cooler, the colored osteopath, to rub her. After long illness, Mrs. Katie White passed away June 6, at her home, 1314 24. a street. On June 6 William Blakeney died very suddenly with heart trouble at St. John's hospital. The young ladies and gentlemen of the city have organized a club and named it "Sweet Hearts." On Tuesday evening, June 4, the club met at the residence of Miss Thistle. Those present at the first entertainment were the Misses Caves, Jefferson, Gaskin, Mr. Wm. Ashford and Mr. I. Wetherly. The club will hold its next meeting with Mr. Wm. Ashford. On Wednesday, June 5, Miss Caves entertained all the children of the city with a beautiful Kensington. Mr. Henry McKinley, who had his eye very badly hurt, is now much improved, and will be dismissed from St. John's hospital in a few days. Mrs. Georgia Flippin is now staying with Mrs. M. H. Hamler. Miss Ruth Robinson and Miss Mamie Alexander, two of our promising young ladies, who have been attending Quindero college, have returned home. They are the recipients of many happy greetings. The Cheyenne Giants are expecting to play again in the near future with one of the troop line-ups. It is almost certain that the Giants will make a better showing this time, as many of the boys have had some practice since the team played the soldiers the first time. The warriors would welcome them every week. FORT RUSSELL, WYO. Dottings of the "Dangling I." This troop has the reputation of being the fastest organization in the regiment and one of the fastest in the army. When the competition was held in 1911 to find out what outfit would make the better showing in the Frontier days celebration, Troop I made the rest of the regiment look like a bunch of militia. Every man in the troop, from the youngest recruit to the oldest Indian fighter, can mount, dismount, vault and mount facing to the rear without experiencing the least difficulty. The amusement room of the troop is fitted out nearly as good as the average gymnasium. But one will not wonder at the excellent condition that the outfit is in when it is known who has been handling it. Captain Charles young, who is about to become our first field officer from the line, has been commanding the troop during the greater part to the past 15 years. All this the organization has to its credit as a whole, if the record of some of the individual athlete is gone over it w be found that such record will compare favorably with that of the most courageous gladiator of ancient Rome. The first group that will be noticed on the troop list of athletes will be the strong football eleven. The gentlemen who compose the team are these: Wilson, full back; Captain Bird, right half; Hall, center; Waters, left halt; Dickerson, quarter back; Coleman, left tackle; Branch, left guard; Nichols, right tackle; Staten, right guard; Jackson, left end; Taylor, right end; substitutes, Harrison, Salter and Mayer. he fastest men at packing their saddles and saddling their horses are Cary Lewis, E. Mahan and Branch. The champion pool players, who issue a challenge to any one in the post are, Titanic Rochell and Tpasico. Corporal Waters and Private Taylor will challenge any team in the regiment for a billiard tournament. The outfit has a very fast relay team. The names of the gentiemen who compose it are: Coleman, Boyd, Dickerson, Thompson. The following named orderly buckers challenge anybody in the regiment at any old guard mount: Staten, Wilson, Geo. Coleman ad Joe Hollomon. Geo. Coleman will challenge anybody with the saber for either a mounted or dismounted fencing duel. The champion 100-yard swimmers are Tapsico, Rochell and Ducasten. Geo. Houston, the champion bronco buster got thrown out of a heavy packed saddle. Captain Bird of the football team, who has been cooking for the past ten years, is trying straight duty for awhile. Q. M. Sergt. Roundtree, better known as Weary Willie, will be discharged on the 18th of June. Scott Washington, who recently transferred from Troop M, is now a corporal and doing well. Alonzo Wilson's best girl came to the troop a few days ago and caught him standing on a stool washing dishes. "Poor little thing," she said, "too bad you didn't grow tall enough to reach the tub." The following gentlemen are the crack marksmen of the troop: Blacksmith Washington, Corporal Johnson, Waters, Geo. Coleman, Mayer, Bird and Lewis. But that fellow A. Williams makes them all take notice when it comes to using a six-shooter. He fired 20 shots at 15 yards and made a total score of eight. Dyer, who claimed himself the champion bronco buster, was thrown so high the other day, in the riding hall, that he took cramps before he struck the ground. Man, the dog, is champion fighter at 67 pounds. At this weight the troop will cover all the coin that can be placed against him. Slugger, the pet, is the greatest dog in the post. McKoy, the troop's champion prize fighter, a 170 pounder, desires to know where Battling Thompson is. This is all for Troop I. We will visit Troop K Next Week. Mr. Creg Taylor, of Troop E, is agent for books. Anyone desiring a book of any description may purchase it from him at very reasonable rates. As was expected, the Ninth Cavalry Sluggers won the post pennant by snatching the last game from the Eleventh Infantry bunch. In this game it was hard to tell who was going to win until the ninth inning. The foot soldiers had a great deal of good luck up until the sixth inning. During this part of the game the white boys playing infield got some balls that would have been difficult for Hans Wagner or any other of the big leaguers to get. But even with all this luck they lost. As the Ninth Horse had so many sluggers with it, nearly every one making good, too, it was almost impossible for the Dough DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 15. 1912. Shall Race Hatred and Unjust Laws be Supported by the U. S. Army THE CAUSE OF THE CUBAN UPRISING. By Bruce Grit. Letters and newspapers from Havana just at hand inform us that the real causes of the revolt of Negro Cubans are, first, the odious Morua laws; second, the bad treatment which Negroes were constantly receiving from President Jose Miguel Gomez in refusing them their political rights; third, the attitude of the courts toward Negro offenders and the certainty of conviction whether innocent or guilty of any Negro brought to trial, while white offenders by some l-gal hocus pocus are set free; fourth, that judges go to the homes of white women to take their testimony in cases in which they are concerned, while the Negro woman is hauled into court, as was done recently with the wife of Gen. Yronet when complaint was lodged against her by a white woman. The present uprising is not a race war as the American newspapers would have it appear. General Estinoz asserts that it is stupid to think such a thing and that people must be extremely corrupt to believe such a thing. General Yvonet declares that if it had been a race war the trouble would have been in the streets of the cities where the whites would have been cut down with machettes. The Negroes are not trying to bring about the intervention of the United States—this appears to be the especial aim of American residents in Cuba who are sighing for the annexation of the island. If annexation does come, the present government of Cuba will be responsible together with its American accomplices, with whom it is conspiring to bring it about. General Estinoz is kept well informed of everything that the government does and the movements of its toy soldiers. He receives much of his information in writing much of it coming from Guantanamo and Santiago and other points. As a further proof that it is not a race war but a revolt of the people of all classes against the present: administration many persons are asking the government for arms, and then joining Estinoz' forces. A large number of white Cuban and Canary Islanders have come over to Estinoz. General Estinoz states that wherever his forces sieve provisions, receipts are given to the owners of such provisions, by proper officers of his army, and they kept no one from working. All our friends on the farms through which we pass know us and we know them. They are given passes so that they can go wherever they wish, without molestation. The American newspapers, following their usual custom, have represented the men under Estinoz as a band of rapists and have played up for all it has been worth, alleged at- loya to win the flag The Ninth bunch is now traveling through Nebraska picking up easy money and having a good time. Sergt. Bailey of the hospital corps was honored with a position to take finger prints in Cheyenne. The sergeant is also an excellent photographer. Keep right on, sergeant, as you are travelling fast; you are certain to reach the top soon. Last Sunday morning Troops A and B played a very interesting game of ball, the score being 14 to 8 in favor of A. Mr. Augustin of the hospital corps performed an operation on a dog last week and was very successful. Our boys in the corps do well at everything they undertake. tacks upon white women by members of Estenoz' forces. These reports contain one part of truth and nine parts of lies, and their purpose is to deceive the public and to wilfully misrepresent the character of the men fighting under Estinoz. There has been only one such attempted outrage by a follower of Estinoz, and as soon as the fact was made known to him, a band of his soldiers immediately sought out and found the offender, and hung him for failing to obey orders from general headquarters. The government has made an attempt to bribe General Yvonet with an offer of a consulate and a large sum of money. If he would cease his demands for the repeal of the Movua law, and desert Estinoz, but in this it has reckoned without its host. The author of the Movua law, Senor Delgardo Morua, now deceased, was a man of color, a former senator and later a member of the cabinet under Gomez. His two daughters were educated to be school teachers in a New York college, but under the operations of their father's law they cannot teach in a public school in Cuba. During his lifetime, and after he had received the price of his treachery to his race—a cabinet portfolio, whenever a decent black or colored Cuban met Movua in the streets of Havana he turned his back on him. He died several years ago, it is said, of a broken heart. A correspondent of a Havana paper, who visited Estinoz and Yvonet in camp, thus describes a visit to them: "We continued to cross many farms in all of which we were halted and I was always careful to answer 'independent non-combatant,' when stopped. We finally arrived at Cascoro farm, where the main camp was located, having passed large numbers of Negroes from time to time. We entered the municipal district of Limones. The camp was pitched on Clego Hill where it commanded a good view of the surrounding country. When half way up the hill, I was met by Col. Luna, chief of General Yvonet's general staff, to whom I was obliged to give in detail the object of my visit. He then conducted me to General Yvonet, passing through large body of cavalry. General Yvonet advanced to meet me and introduced me to General Estinoz. 'How comes it,' said Estinoz, 'that a blonde such as you and with blue eyes, too, should dare to come to us when you know that our aim is to kill the whites?' He said this with irony and I recalled to him how Napoleon had forgiven a man who had made his way to him against all orders, and told him I was sure he would do as much. Estinoz laughed and said that he congratulated me on being the first newspaper man to reach his camp. He was dressed in a shirt of marine blue, a pair of drill trousers, hunting boots, and carried a 44 calibre Colts, and a belt full of cartridges. His costume was set off with a large French sabre which he said had been given him by a French gentleman in Paris. He had no sign of rank on his clothes. "Yvonne's shirt was the same as that of Eestinoz, except that he had two gold stars on his collar over a green background; grey cashmere trousers, yellow cavalry leggings, double-soled yellow shoes and carried a long machette and a Colts revolver, a Spanish mauser rifle, and was well provided with cartridges for both. After our conference we sat down to breakfast which was served by two women. The menu consisted of white rice, red beans, steak, pigeons, vegetables, fried bananas, rum and coffee. Ten of us sat down at the table." There is difference in the quality of printing. Franklin's printing is good. Phone Main 7095 for estimates.

Our place of worship is small and if you cannot attend our rally services, please send your contribution to the pastor, 282S California street. Rev. A. M. Ward, pastor of Shorters A. M.

PRESENTED WITH LOVING GUP Alumnus Who Has Served His Alma Mater In an Official Capacity For Eleven Years Retires to Devote Future to Private Practice—Bids Class Farewell. By R. W. THOMPSON. Washington.—With the close of the present school year Dr. C. Sumner Wormley severs his connection as superintendent of the department of dentistry at Howard university. The urgent demand for more time to devote to his private practice is given as the sole cause of Dr. Wormley's resignation. He has been at the head of the dental section of the medical school for eleven years. The senior class in dentistry has presented Dr. Wormley with a massive silver loving cup as a testimonial of affection and appreciation of his unselfish efforts in behalf of the class. The presentation speech was made by William H. Whitted, president of the class, who paid a lofty tribute to the character and productive labors of the retiring instructor. Dr. Wormley thanked the generous donors and told in a most touching manner how he had tried to his utmost capacity to serve his alma mater and how he had made the upbuilding of the dental department his "hobby." He pointed out to the class that success is measured by service and the amount of work done and not by how much wealth is accumulated. "The final test of good citizenship is service," says a sage. Measured by this very accurate standard, Dr. Wormley is entitled to a place in the foremost rank of "desirable citizens." Yet a young man, his career is "full of good works," and his name is deservedly written high in the professional, social, musical and educational life of the nation's capital. He is a scion of one of the oldest and most famous families of Washington. He acquired his early training A. DR. C. SUMNER WORKLEY. in the public and high schools of this city. He graduated from the dental department of Howard university in 1900 with honors, winning the alumni prize in dentistry in a large field of contestants. Taking hold like a veteran, he completely reorganized the department, installing a new system and adopting the methods and practices approved by the best dental authorities in the country. As superintendent of this department and lecturer on crown and bridge work Dr. Wormley soon gained a wide reputation. The enrollment for the present term is over 100 students, divided into three sections. The graduating class of the current year numbers thirty-four, and it is the banner class in the history of the school. The department now has twenty-two dental chairs, and the work performed by the operators of the senior and junior divisions is pronounced by competent authorities to be of an unusually high order. To illustrate the extent to which the institution has developed under the fostering care of Dr. Wormley, there was spent last year alone for improvements, materials and equipment over $2,500. Dr. Wormley, with characteristic modesty, disclaims any large measure of credit for the happy results achieved. He attributes the lion's share of the school's forward march to the encouragement, sympathy and support extended by President Thirkield, the progressive head of the university; Dr. C. H. Howland, dean of the dental department, and by Dr. W. C. McNeill, secretary of Howard Medical school. Dr. Wormley is public spirited to the last degree and is always willing to give of his talents and his means to worthy movements in behalf of the people. He served two terms with marked distinction as president of the Robert T. Freeman Dental Society of Washington, the first organization of the race in the United States made up exclusively of colored dentists. It was originally known as the Washington Society of Colored Dentists, but the name was changed to do honor to Dr. Robert T. Freeman, the first colored dentist to practice in the District of Columbia. POINTS WAY TO SUCCESS. How W. H. Daly Encourages Business Among Afro-Americans In Baltimore. Baltimore.—In every community there are men who are starting in life hampered by the same disadvantages that envelop other men and yet by force of character and resourcefulness outstrip their fellows. Such a man is William H. Daly, who is successfully looking after varied interests in pointing the way upward to the young men of the race in this city. Born in Virginia, he came to this city a quarter of a century ago and secured employment as a butler. By frugal and abstemious habits he soon saved up enough money to start in the wholesale and retail meat business in the Lafayette market. By faithfully attending to his business and giving the right quality of WILLIAM H. DALY. meats at the right prices his business soon grew. Having several afternoons a week to spare, he learned to repair jewelry, a business in which he is now also engaged. Mr. Daly has worked his way up through difficulties from obscurity to a prominent place in the business arena in a large city. He has promoted many successful ventures and believes in the possibilities of the race along business lines. He has invested largely in the theatrical, hotel and restaurant business because, as he says, it makes room for the employment of members of the race. Thoughtful business men and women are watching with interest Mr. Daly's work in this city. All agree that he is pointing the way to success for many persons who may have been too timid to enter into business ventures for themselves. LEADERSHIP OF THRIFTY YOUNG MINISTER NOTED. Influence and Work of the Rev. Frederick Butler of Montclair. Montclair, N. J.—One of the most enterprising young ministers in this section and one who has a brilliant future is the Rev. Frederick Butler, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. church. During his eight years' pastorate he has succeeded in maintaining one of the best organized churches in the connection. It is a handsome edifice located on one of the prominent streets of the town. The membership has increased from 100 to 400, and the church, which is modern throughout, is valued at $30.00 and is free of debt. The institutional features which Rev. Mr. Butler has instituted at the church have greatly helped the community. Rev. Butler is a force in the civic life of the race in Montclair and takes a keen interest in all matters pertaining to the welfare of the Negro. He has the confidence of the best white people of the town. Few young ministers of the race are wielding wider influence than the Rev. Mr. Butler. He was born in New York and got his spiritual inspiration at St. Mark's M. E. church in his home city. He was educated at the Howard school of Wilmington, Del., and at the high school of Providence, R. I., of which he is a graduate. He studied theology at Gammon seminary in Atlanta, Ga. He joined the Delaware conference in 1897 and pastored successfully in Atlantic City, Centerville, Md., and his present charge. He is a member of the Ministerial federation of Montclair. Noted Singer Returns From Tour. Mme. Anita Patti Brown of Chicago, known far and wide as "the bronze Tetrazzini," has returned to her home after a remarkably successful tour of Jamaica, West Indies, followed by a jaunt through the states of Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. She was accompanied by Mme. Lou Elia B. Smith, pianist and dramatic reader. Both were paid many fine compliments by the press and public throughout their long itinerary. Candidates For Board of Education. There are many aspirants for the place on the Washington board of education now occupied by Dr. W. V. Tunnell of Howard university. It is understood, however, that Dr. Tunnell is a candidate for reappointment. Among those mentioned in connection with the position are Mr. H. C. Tyson, Attorney W. L. Houston and the well known Dr. C. W. Childs. Commencement at Howard University. The forty-third annual commencement at Howard university, in Washington, which came to a successful close on Wednesday, June 5 was the most notable in the history of the institution. The address conferring degrees upon the graduates was delivered by the Hon William H. Lewis, assistant attorney general of the United States.

Since the Negroes were freed they have increased from 4,000,000 to 11,000,000. It would be nearer the truth to say 20,000,000 if we include that large body of persons with African reinforcement who are successfully passing for white persons. Negroes own today $600,000,000. They have 135 private high schools, 30,000 teachers, 82 banks, about 500 newspapers and periodians. They have decreased illiteracy 47 per cent. They have 1,500 lawyers, 2,500 physicians, several thousand clergymen, 149 wholesale houses, 9,008 retail merchants, 1,186 manufacturers and 2,000,000 children in the schools.

Ellis Jackson. She has been greeted by large and fashionable audiences at Kingston and all of the principal cities of the island. The Britons have marveled at the rare talent displayed by Miss Davis on her tour. The Kingston Daily Telegraph says: "Miss Henrietta Vinton Davis was a revelation to her audience at the Conversorium recently. In her several dramatic selections from Shakespeare and also humorous renditions from Paul Laurence Dunbar and others she kept the bar audience spellbound from start to finish, and no one could fail to recognize the great power of her mind. "In the potion scene from 'Romeo and Juliet,' the letter scene from 'Macbeth' and Portia's speech from 'The Merchant of Venice.' Shakespeare's most exacting selections, she was particularly effective. She was vociferously enced after each selection. "Mme. Nonie Bailey Hardy, who accompanied Miss Davis, contributed vocal selections, which elicited many recalls. Her remarkable contralto voice showed to great advantage in 'All That I Ask Is Love' and Tosti's 'Goodby.'" It is expected that Miss Davis will remain in Jamaica throughout the month of June, after which she will visit Haiti and Cuba and tour the cities of the Atlantic seaboard in the south before returning to her home in Washington. PEREGRINO AS LIBERATOR. Secretary For Rhodesian Affaire Lauds Work of Cape Town Editor. Cape Town, South Africa.—Mr. F. Z. S. Peregrino, editor of the Cape Town (South Africa) Spectator, is doing splendid work in South Africa, both as a journalist and as the accredited representative of King Lewanika of the powerful Barolong tribe. It was at the suggestion of Mr. Peregrino that slavery was abolished in Barotseland a few years ago. The following letter will show in what esteem Mr. Peregrino is held by British government officials in South Africa: Dear Mr. Percerrino, I cannot allow you depart without placing on record the many high services you have rendered the cause of progress and liberty in the Barotse valley. You arrived here at a time when this administration was grappling with a very difficult and delicate problem and wherein the paramount chief and the Barotse national council were antagonistic and by throwing the weight of your presence thus early won the day for liberty and civilization. You may not possibly appreciate the value the great services you have received to the humanity, but I feel sure that one day the Barotse nation will rise up and thank you therefor. I am, very faithfully, yours, THOMAS V. WORTHINGTON. Secretary For Native Affairs, Northwest Rhodesia. This is indeed high praise and worthily bestowed. Mr. Peregrino is a native African, a full black born at Accra, on the Gold Coast, and he is capable of matching intellect with any man of his age and inches, whether on the rostrum or in the subtle art of diplomacy. He is now (May, 1912) on a diplomatic mission for King Lewanika at Mafeking, S. A. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENT ARCHITECT. J. W. Wiggington, 12 Union Blk. Omaha, Nebr. AUTO O.

The Old Order Passeth--- Platform Is Party Hope The Republican Party will have to seek the vote of the colored citizens through the appeal which its platform makes. The personality of Taft and of Roosevelt will be of no avail for they have both failed to make the most of their position as President of the United States by showing that they were men large enough to enforce the laws without any coloring from prejudice. It makes no difference that some Negroes are supporting the one and some the other, in both cases, it is their choice of the lesser evil they are making rather than the expression of their perfect satisfaction with either. The Statesman has longed for the day to come when the Republican Party would seek the votes of colored citizens on the same basis as it does that of whites,--that is on the dignified, legitimate basis of service for service. Let the party show itself the best one in serving the country's interests and our own peculiar interests. We wait with considerable expectancy the deliberations of next week and hope that the Republican Party will so consider the welfare of ten million blacks in its platform that it will make an end of the nullification of the amendments to the Constitution which its candidates if elected will swear to uphold.

It did not get as much boosting as some others but we got results. Three cheers for our loyal co-workers in this entertainment! We can now secure song books so that all the people may sing. The replenishing of song books will meet a long felt need in our school, especially since its membership has so increased. Last Sunday was a day of flowers, song and general good cheer in our school. There were nearly 200 present to enjoy the program rendered by the children. Without a question of doubt it was the finest Children's Day program we have ever listened to. The committee deserves great credit for its most excellent work in training the children for this occasion. --- THE STATESMAN Local and sonal Local and Personal Mention Remember the Mason's annual picnic. It will be the biggest and best of the season, at Bloomfield Park July 2nd. V. T. Scruggs who has been employed at the city hall, has been supplanted by a white janitor. J. W. Pertilla has taken the place as elevator pilot at the city hall. A new departure in city jobs is that of driver of the water wagon, a place given to Don. Reeves. The city is well depleted of officials of the various women's clubs, many of them having gone to Pueblo where the state federation has been in session during the week. Mrs. Jas. Abernathy is preparing to take a trip East tomorrow. Edward Moore was taken suddenly ill last Tuesday and died Thursday at his home on Lafayette street. His remains were sent to Lawrence, the old home, where he was buried. He leaves a wife and daughter bereft. He has made Denver his home for many years, being last employed in the Ideal building. Miss Della Black or Colorado Springs, sister of Mrs. Moore has come to the city to be with her. The Lafayette Mercantile Company says that it does not fear the competition of any down-town store in prices or quality of groceries and meats. It is advertising extensively by circulars in the neighborhood of its store, 24th and Lafayette street. Mrs. Austin has recovered in a wonderful degree from the effects of her recent operation. Mrs. Lillie Smith is about the house a gain having about recovered from an operation for gall stones. Mrs. Helen Curlett of Lawrence, Kansas, is visiting her brother, Benji Bennett. J. W.

The move on foot is to have the Y. M. C. B. set apart as a branch of the Central Y. M. C. A., and take up the getting of a home at a future date. Bishop Parks spoke in both the Methodist churches Sunday, at shorter in the morning, and at Campbell in the evening.

Per- Mention With a colored saloon in this city which serves as good goods in as nice quarters as any, there are still many persons who prefer to patronize places conducted by whites in the immediate neighborhood of this saloon, and hundreds who prefer to treatment accorded them in barrel houses and other disreputable joints. With that situation prevailing, it takes a more forgiving mind than that of the average person to protest against the placarding of some places located near Arapahoe street, with signs that colored trade is not wanted. Until Negroes get pride enough to patronize their own, except where there are strong reasons for not doing so, they offer themselves as willing subjects for insult.

After a frightful coughing spell a man in Neenah, Wis., felt terrible pains in his side and his doctor found two ribs had been broken. What agony Dr. King's New Discovery would have saved him. A few tea-spoonsful ends a late cough, while persistent use routs obstinate coughs, expels stubborn colds or heals weak, sore lungs.

It's guaranteed to satisfy, and you can get a free trial bottle or 50-cent or $1.00 size at all drummers. YOUNG WARD PREACHES FIRST SERMON HERE Sunday night Shorter church was well filled to hear the sermon of Wayman Ward, the Wilberforce theolog who is spending the summer with his parents.

Former Governor of Louisiana Says Race Must Make Good. At the May meeting of the New York Historical and Literary society ex-Governor P. B. S. Pinchback of Louisiana was the principal speaker. His subject was "Reconstruction Reminiscences," which he treated in a most interesting manner. Ex-Governor Pinchback said in part: "There is a great future before us, a great service for us to perform. Notwithstanding the education and wealth among us, we are not making the progress I would like to see made. A quarter of a century ago the colored citizens of Louisiana felt that the white people had no rights that they had to respect. The colored people were in absolute control. "We are in the minority in this country in numbers, intelligence and wealth. Look up and down Broadway. How much of it do we own? Look at the subways. How many shares do we own in them? We must move forward along all lines of industry in the business world. "There is no excuse for a man or woman not making good in these days of opportunity and advancement. I arose from a cabin boy to the position of the chief executive in the state of Louisiana. Not all of the colored men who were representatives in the state legislature or officeholders in those days were ignorant men. "Some of them were intelligent and possessed executive ability to a marked degree. Oscar J. Dunn, the first lieutenant governor of Louisiana, was as black as the ace of spades, but a grander man from principle never trod God's earth. "Those of you who have heard of the reconstruction period, of the charge of incompetency, mismanagement, etc. on the part of those in control of affairs at that time have an opportunity today to make good and to demonstrate to the world that capability and efficiency know no color; that wherever the opportunity affords itself our men and women can make good." Others who spoke were Isalah Montgomery, founder of Mount Bayou, Miss.; Counselor E. A. Johnson, Counselor D. Macon Webster and Mrs. Bethune, principal of the Girls' Industrial school of St. Augustine, Fla. HIGH SCHOOL CADETS IN COMPETITIVE PRIZE DRILL Company A, Successful For Third Consecutive Time, Retains Flag. Washington.—Twenty thousand people, representing the intelligence, beauty, culture and wealth of the Afro- Americans of the nation's capital, saw Company A of the First separate battalion of High School cadets win first honors in the recent annual competitive drill at American League park. The crowd was the largest that has been, up to this time, assembled in the beautiful concrete coliseum at Seventh street and Florida avenue, and the sight was one that could not fail to inspire a sense of pride in every right minded member of the race who had the good fortune to witness it. Seven companies were entered for the flag—three from M Street high school and four from the Armstrong Manual Training school, the latter also including the company from the Business high school. Company A has won first place three times in succession and has fallen into second place only once in the past seven years. The annual drill was the eighteenth, and it was accounted the best of the series. The judges were Lieutenant John E. Green of the United States army, military instructor at Wilberforce university, and two officers of the District national guard. Major Arthur Brooks, military instructor of the cadets, was on hand to see how well his boys had grasped the fine points in which he had instructed them. Each company was allowed thirty minutes in which to complete forty-eight difficult maneuvers. None of the companies used more than the allotted time, and the judges stated, in awarding the honors, that the organizations were so very close on marks that it had been difficult to pick the winner. A sham battle and a dress parade of the seven companies followed the competition. Superintendent W. M. Davidson of the public schools, Captain James E. Oyster, president of the board of education, and other members of the board and officers of the schools, including Assistant Superintendent Roscoe Conkling Bruce and Principals E. C. Williams and W. Bruce Evans, witnessed the exercises. Lawyer R. R. Horner of the board of education presented the medals, pinning a gold one on Arthur Logan, the youthful captain of the winning company, silver medals on Lieutenant Herbert Harris and Rayford Logan and white badges of honor on each of the forty-four privates. Company A having won the flag three consecutive times now retains it permanently. The captains of Companies A, B, C, D, E. F and G. respectively, were Arthur C. Logan, Joseph P. Dancy, Arthur A. Dyer, George A. Brown, James A. Jackson, Charles A. Newton and Charles H. Lewis. Two Useful Institutions Disband. With the close of the present school year the Eckstein Norton institute and the National Medical school in Louisville, Ky., will be merged into the new Lincoln institute in so far as the students of these schools are concerned. The two former institutions will not resopen next fall for educational work. POTENT FACTOR IN EDUCATION Institution Founded by Dr. John J. Smallwood Holds Brilliant Closing Exercises and Dedicates Magnificent Edifice Named For Lincoln—Governor Mann Delivers Address. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Claremont, Va.—The Temperance Industrial and Collegiate institute in this town has closed another successful school year. It was founded twenty years ago by the Rev. John J. Smallwood, Ph. D. The work of the school under the safe leadership of President Smallwood all these years has been of great benefit to the race. At the recent commencement exercises and dedicatory services of Lincoln hall there were many men of state and national reputation present. Lincoln hall is named for the great war president and emancipator. It is a magnificent four story edifice built of brick, stone and cement. The building cost $50,000 and is fully equipped with all necessary improvements. Among the other splendid buildings for school purposes are Mayflower cottage, Sunnyside cottage, teachers' cottage, the main school buildings and the barns where farming implements are kept. The buildings have heating and electric plants, water plant and sewerage plant, which make the sanitary environment healthy. Those who made addresses at the closing exercises and dedication of Lincoln hall were the Hon. William Hodges Mann, governor of Virginia; Rev. Fred M. Estes of Boston; Editor John Mitchell, Jr., Richmond, Va.; Dr. Charles E. Davis, Boston; Rev. David Jones, Scranton, Pa.; Dr. C. S. Morris, Norfolk, Va., and the Rev. Clinton B. Henry, New York. President Smallwood made an inspiring address, in which he covered every phase of the work. He declared for higher education, better treatment of the youth of the race and for proper religious training in our public and higher institutions of learning. The institution has grown from an expense of $250 per school year to that of $45,000 per school year for 1911-12. All of this is upon the work of an institution free from any church creed and free from any political influence. The school owns ten excellent buildings, about 300 acres of land and the best horses and mules and the best kept farming implements in the eastern section of Virginia. While the institution is strictly religious, it is free from sectarianism. The first thing that is sought by all of the faculty as well as the president is the religious welfare of the students. This being accomplished, it is an easy matter to shape their literary course. Up to the present time President Smallwood has kept the institution in his own hands, working to free it from debt and to find himself able to present the institution to the Negro race and to American friends free from debt. This he has done. Comparatively speaking, of the $175,000 he owes less than $15,000. He has always had an aversion to making a big show. The institution teaches scientific farming, encourages the young Negro to buy land and to build a respectable home and to become independent, as well as an intelligent citizen. Dress-making, scientific cooking, laundering and carpentry are all taught by the teachers of the institution. In the academic and college department President Smallwood makes no apology for teaching Latin, Greek and the sciences. He maintains that the Negro must have his leaders and these lenders must be proficient and that in order that they shall be proficient they must have more than a normal school education. The institution is built upon the very spot where the second cargo of slaves landed upon American soil in 1624 and where the first auction block was erected upon which Negroes were sold into slavery. The school, by its wonderful achievements, commends itself most favorably to the consideration of the friends of the Negro race throughout the country. The institution needs a hospital for the training of nurses, a good carpenter shop in which work can be done all the winter, four sets of carpenter's tools, three sewing machines, blackboards, a laundry outfit and a printing press. President Smallwood is directly concerned now in plans for raising an endowment fund of $100,000. J. P. Morgan Aids Fisk University. Fisk university expects to receive the remainder of the $500,000 fund which it set out to raise some time ago during the month of June. The general education board in New York is ready with its $60,000. as promised when the university raises the rest, which amounts to $440,000. J. Pierpont Morgan has given $25,000 of the amount to be raised by the school. Bishop Hurst For Florida Conference. The Florida conference of the A. M. E. church will be in charge of the Rev. Dr. John Hurst, one of the newly elected bishops of the denomination. Bishop Hurst will make his home in Washington. Cover that Bald Spot by using my special Treatment.

THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair. The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

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. ALL SHAPES BROWN The Hatter 50c MRS. BEATRICE DENSON, 511 Clarkson, F. 718 & 911 18th St. Sold by J. J.

COLORED VAUDEVILLE TEAMS THAT HAVE CLOSED FOR THE SUMMER The team of Cooper and Robinson New York; Cook and Stevens, Washington; Alda Walker and company New York; Kelly and Davis, Chicago; Stewart and Marshall, Chicago; Bobby Kemp, Boston; John Larkins Washington; Lottie Grady and company, Chicago; Abbie Michel, Chicago; Lally and Hart, New York, and the Reese Brothers will close the first of July at Jacksonville, Fla. THE SELBY TROUBADORS AT MANHATTAN The opportunity was presented a few days ago to some of Denver's local talent and was gladly accepted, which will give them a chance to show their ability. Mr. Selby our well-known theatrical man from the East, has bought the privilege of erecting a first-class play house out at Manhattan and he is going to use Negro performers exclusively. With Arthur Edwards, Mabel Burns, Oly Hickman, George Elkins, D. D. Green, and Jim Hickman as the leading characters, and there is no reason why the show shouldn't be a success, as these are all clever performers, and much success is wishell all members who have joined. BLACK PATTI CO. CLOSES SEASON. Mme. Patti and company, after a very successful season, closed in Florida last week, the madame states that the past year was the most profitable one that she has experienced in years and hopes to excell this one with an all-star company this season. DENVER COLORED BOY WITH CURTIS AVIATION COMPANY. Mr. Leonard Chattman, better known as soldier, the all-around automobile and dare-devil, is in the city after being away for the past year with the Curtis Airship company. Chattman has toured all of the Southern states, and this coming month will resume his duties with the aforesaid company, and he also expects to make several flights himself this season, which will make him the only Negro airship man or birdman in the country. DENVER NEGRO CLUBS SUFFER IN CITY'S NEW ADMINISTRATION Owing to the defeat of both the old political parties, Republicans and Democrats, the Negro club men of this city are receiving quite a shake down. And it is probable that some of the many clubs will have to stay shut altogether or at least as long as the Citizen's party is in power, and the action taken by the police is being felt not only by the club owners but the public at large. If the city officials see fit to close the doors of the big Rocky Mountain Athletic club where would we then spend our few moments for pleasure. The Rocky is a legitimate law-abiding club, for its members, and conducts the house the same as some of the big white millionaire clubs of the city, and to have the doors of such a fine institution closed would be sorely felt by the whole city and the out-of-town members, also. And it is truly hoped that the ne wyet officials will in no way marr the pleasure of its members by closing doors of a law-abiding establishment. As there are a lot of members who are property owners, taxpayers, and voters, and citizens of this city, and to have every field of pleasure and amusement closed would be the same as a mouse in a cage. I truly hope that members will look at the matter the same as myself and give the Rocky your utmost support, then we will be able to live forever the same as the big white clubs. BOB WATKINS TO JOIN JOHNSON CAMP. Big Bob Watkins, the old-time heavy-weight glove artist of this city, who some few years ago was fast climbing the ladder to fame as a mixer with his dukes, has been received by Jack Johnson to help out in his training for his coming event July 4, with Jim Flynn. Big Bob will accept and join the camp about the 20th of June, and he also states that Jack is in the best of condition and should win his fight within fifteen rounds, which sounds like very good dope. JOHNSON AND FLYNN AND REFEREE. Up to this writing the question as to whom would be referee of the com- ing world's championship battle for the heavies is not known. The champion, Jack Johnson, had many men to choose from and he is taking his own good time, but it will be one of the following three men: Ed Smith, Jack Welch and Ed Cochrane, that will do the honors as third man in the ring on the much looked forward to event, on the Fourth at Las Vegas. Both Johnson and Flynn, it is stated, are daily, killing off there trainers and need fresh ones everyday, so it looks as though the fight is going to be a corker. Flynn, for the first few rounds, i probably going to keep Jack very busy, but after the seventh, I can't possibly seen anything but Jack, and if I am not greatly mistaken, before the end of the eleventh round there will be no more Flynn, as the birdies will be sweetly singing to him in the land of Dreams, and Jack will still wear his crown and golden smile that won't come off. NINTH CAVALRY BALL TEAM TO TOUR STATES. The colored soldiers of Fort Russell, are to be honored with a trip throughout the state of Wyoming, giving exhibition games at baseball. The Ninth Cavalry team is said to be one of the fastest teams in the U. S. army. Well, I wonder, do they want to come down here to Denver and play the Rocky Mt. ball team. If so, I believe that they will meet defeat the same as they did last year in football. CITY NEWS. The new board of fire and police commissioners has caused the various clubs of the city to be closed, on the claim that they harbored illegal practices. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. H. Stanley passed away last week. Mrs. Rebecca Duncan Scott was in the city last week, the guest of Mrs. Lillie Moore. She is en route on a visit East. The first picnic of the season, that given by the Odd Fellows of Rocky Mountain Lodge, was on Wednesday night, and occurred despite rain in the afternoon with a good crowd present. The fates were kind to the givers indeed and those who attended had a spendid time. The Sewing Circle of Shorter Chapel will give a two days' fair at the church Tuesday and Wednesday, June 18 and 19.

Webster, who has been connected with the Pure Food Department of the government in this city for a number of months and who has made many friends by his pleasant ways and general usefulness, leaves the city soon for Wisconsin where he has been transferred to the Forestry Service. This comes as a promotion and will have the additional advantage of permitting him to go to the great University of Wisconsin. Mrs. Nannie Childs, who has been in California for a long time, is expected to return to the city in the near future. Miss Adah Miller and Mrs. Chas. Lightner arrived in the city Friday morning, for a short visit with their sister, Mrs. Bert Patrick. GOOD-BYE! TA! TA! BEGONE!
