POLE MOUNTAIN, WYO.
Mr. Osborn Dorsey of the M. G. P. got his discharge Sunday. He left for Denver, where he will probably take on again for the detachment at Riley.
Nothing is known as to when the troops will be paid. It is believed that they will get paid next month ior both July and August.
If the militia troops do not come, the regulars will leave the maneuver camp on the 27th. The commanding general says that there is too much danger of pneumonia to remain longer than the date mentioned.
The maneuvers so far are not very hard. The problems are usually solved within two hours and a half after boots and saddles are sounded.
During the past week there has been very little head work for enlisted men. They have not had to put into operation any of the instructions taught from the field service regulation, but the field instructions are very likely to come into play each day after the militia comes and makes the body of troops larger.
The N. C. O. get seven nights in bed and the privates nearly the same number.
The greatest trouble in the camp is caused by the furious wind storms which arise every afternoon. There are always at least three storms and each is followed by a hard shower of rain. These storms are so impetuous that they violently tear down two or three tents every afternoon. One tent was carried so high in the air that several men remarked that it looked like an old-fashioned war balloon.
Whenever one of these tempestuous winds come up on a dry day, the most horrible sight of all is seen down on the picket lines where the horses have trampled the dirt until it has become as fine as flower. The large pieces of brush, sticks, gravel, dust, and newspapers carried by these gales irrighten the animals nearly to death. The horses and mules jump and kick and rear; feed tent flies are torn up and one end flew 25 feet in the air; loose hay sails in front of the strongest gale; picket lines are broken and carried hither and thither; everything is put into a whirling and dipping motion for about five minutes. After this calmness and peace, if it does not rain, is enjoyed for probably an hour. Then two more such storms as just described are likely to follow at an hour's interval. After the last gale passes, rebuilding of the camp takes place.
Of the two camps that the regiment was occupied in the past two years, it is difficult to tell which is the worst—the one in Texas where the men were in mud up to their knees every day for a month, or the one in Pole Mountain where their eyes are almost beaten out daily by sand and gravel. As the present encampment is only for a short duration no one will get disheartened whatever the conditions. In fact, if a vote was had, it is believed that a majority would prefer living in a camp situated in a sandy country to one located in a muddy hole.
The camp is situated on a hill that has about a four-degree slope. So it matters not how long or how hard it rains, the water has either to run off down the hill or soak into the ground within five minutes after it quits raining. And as there is so much sand and gravel mingled with the dirt, no mud is ever left in the troop streets.
When the sun is shining, it is warm enough for anybody. But at night it is so cold that fires have to be kindled. Here again the regiment is fortunate in being placed near plenty of good.dry wood. All that is to be done is to get a wagon and haul it in.
The regular troops were somewhat astounded when they heard that the militia men were aversed to maneuvering with them. The old warriors seem to think that there is no occasion for this. They say that the militia men should not take offense because one or two irresponsible regulars nick-name them "tin soldiers," for nothing in the way of contempt is meant. There are ten chances to one, the old warriors says, that persons calling the militia men tin soldiers, are so young in the service that they themselves are no more than would-be soldiers, so come along, untrained brother. If our country should be suddenly invaded by a foreign power, we would all be nothing more than tin soldiers.

Miss May E. Smith, one of Cheyenne's mocking birds, has just returned home from her concert tour. Cheyenne welcomes her in her midst again.
Mrs. Mary Robinson is dangerously ill at St. John's hospital with blood poisoning.
The windstorm which swept the city Friday, the 12th, played havoc with Yankee Robinson's show tents. The large tent was blown to atoms. Many people sustained severe injuries. But fortunately only one colored person was hurt, Charles Hudson, a member of Troop M, Ninth Cavalry, was struck by a flying pole.

On Sunday there occurred from Campbell church the funeral of J. F. Frazier, whose death last week brought up many reminiscences among the piloneers of the city. He was over eighty years of age and had been a man of great usefulness in his vigorous days. He was a past grand master of the Masons of Colorado, and in his honor the Masons turned out with Centennial Lodge of which he was a member. Grand Master Douglass came to the city from Pueblo. The interment was at Riverside, Rev. Pope preached the funeral sermon, dealing touchingly with the life of the deceased. He was a member of Campbell church. At one time Mr. Frazier was one of the brightest Masons in Colorado, but of late years falling physical and mental powers took him from his accustomed walks in life. He was cared for by his son in his last days.
This week the Hall brothers are opening a new lodging house at 2401 Emerson street, to be called the Lorena.

They are furnishing it handsomely so that furnishings and house finish will harmonize.

A COLORADO PRODUCT OF NOTE.
Of the many students who have attended Western University, Quindaro, Kansas, from Colorado, Miss Ella Smith of Trinidad, is one of notable mention.
This young lady entered the university two years ago in the commercial department and from the very start has been a success in all lines of work undertaken by her. Since her entrance she has been employed as private secretary to President H. T. Kealing, and has rendered excellent service. Her conduct has been and is above reproach, and she was progressive and preserving student, winning the esteem of both teachers and students.
On commencement day she was awarded her diploma, having completed the stenographic course and won the medal for speed and accuracy in shorthand. At the present time she is employed at the university as stenographer, filling the place of Mr. G. K. Williams, the registrar, who is taking his summer vacation.

CAMPBELL CHAPEL.
The Red and Blue contest came to a close Tuesday evening last, with a free reception, when the Reds, the winners, were served to cream and cake, while the Blues contented themselves with cheese and crackers. The pastor and officers desire to thank the members and friends for their hearty co-operation. One hundred and seventy-five dollars was realized from the contest.
Despite the flood, the trolley car party, on Monday evening last, was quite a success. There is a popular demand for another. Look out for it on Aug. 5.
The Sunday schools of Campbell and Shorter will have their annual outing Tuesday, August 13, at Rocky Mountain Lake. A more desirable location for a picnic cannot be had. Its accessible and beautiful grounds complete in their equipments for recreation and amusement, and its delightful lake for fishing, are good reasons for expecting this to be a popular outing for the colored children of Denver.
The passing of Brother J. F. Frazier removed from Denver's society a well known and highly respected citizen, a faithful and devoted member of Campbell Chapel A. M. E. church, and an honored craftsman who stood high in the ranks of Ancient Free and Accepted Masonry, he being Past Master and one of the charter members of Centennial Lodge No. 4, and Past Grand Master of this jurisdiction of said fraternity. The funeral services were conducted Sunday afternoon from Campbell church, Rev. R. L. Pope officiating. The rite of Masonic funeral was conferred by Grand Master S. P. Douglas of Pueblo and the officers and members of the local lodge. Brother J. M. Mason presented a beautiful set of resolutions on behalf of the lodge and the Olympia band played appropriate and touching funeral dirges as the body was borne through the streets. Mrs. Falling and her choir sang several choice selections. The high esteem in which Mr. Frazier was held was demonstrated by the large number of people who turned out to do him honor. An only son and a host of friends are left to mourn his loss.

LEAGUE SELECTS NO CANDIDATE
Fifth Annual Meeting of Militant Political Organization Which Stands For Full Constitutional Rights Renews Fight Against Jimcrowism, Disfranchisement and Segregation.
Philadephia.—The fifth annual meeting of the National Independent Political league was held in this city the first week in July. President John R. Clifford presided and was again chosen president of the organization. The sessions of the league were held in the Zion Baptist church, of which the Rev. Dr. Edward W. Moore is pastor.
Judging from the earnestness of the speakers and the field workers who have studied the political situation very closely as it relates to the two great national parties, the influence of the league is going to be felt in no uncertain way in the coming national political campaign.
The situation in so far as the action of the league at this meeting is concerned invites much speculation because of the fact that, contrary to expectations, the organization failed to go on record as favoring either of the presidential candidates chosen by the Republican and Democratic parties. The election of officers resulted as follows: President, John R. Clifford, Martinsburg, W. Va.; vice presidents, Rev. J. H. Wiley of Rhode Island, W. D. Johnson of Massachusetts, Rev. W. H. Jeonagan of Oklahoma, J. M. Summers and J. G. Burrell; corresponding secretary, Abel P. Caldwell; treasurer, J. Jones; recording secretary, J. L
REV. DR. E. W. MOORE.
Nelll; organizer, Rev. J. E. Churchman, and sergeant-at-arms, John Clinton, Jr.
The report of the committee on resolutions as adopted is as follows:
We, the National Independent Political league, in fifth annual session assembled in this city, where the Declaration of American Independence was signed on Inception, the fourth anniversary of the hundredth and thirty-sixth anniversary of its issuance in the same city where this independent league was organized four years ago to preserve liberty and equality for colored Americans by the enforcement of the constitution, declare to our native country our fealty to the tenets of that first great indemnity of the United States, to the letter and spirit to our own first declaration of independence from political party slavery sent out at our birth.
And we reaffirm our position as there stated against every traitor to our rights and our intention to continue our policy of opposing them with our ballots as a weapon of self defense under the motto "For Men and Measures Rather Than Party." We continue to insist upon full manhood, political rights and equal civil rights, and equal liberties in all walks of life for all Americans regardless of race or color. We will be satisfied with no compromise.
We continue to oppose color prejudice, especially as manifested in color segregation in places of public assembly, accommodation or residence. We declare un-American and infamous the jimcrow car, a stigma upon colored citizens such as no other civilized country puts upon its own citizens. We demand that congress pass for them the election of an interstate passenger from any public carrier for race or color or to segregate therein.
We continue to protest against disfranchisement for race and color in the south. It is permitted by the federal government even under Republican administrations in violation of the plain intent of the fifteenth amendment. Meanwhile the disfranchising states are given their full quota of congressmen in positive violation of the fourteenth amendment. We should hold the president and congress break up this wrong by the enforcement of the constitution.
We continue to deplore and condemn the lynching of human beings. This mob murder is anarchy and barbarism, an exhibition and publication of the weakness of government and of the brutality of the people. The false excuse of assault upon white women brazenly asserted in an official message by ex-President Theodore Roosevelt has been exploded, especially by the shameless lynching of colored women. All the boasted humanitarian interests of the American people seem important to stop even the burning alive of human beings. State courts are powerless against the police. State powers are contested. Coasties shame here in Pennsylvania. Lynching has become a national menace and scandal, requiring national treatment.
We demand that congress make lynching a federal crime under the sole jurisdiction of the federal courts, with right to a change of venue. Nothing is more cruel or productive of discontent and crime than the denial of industrial opportunity because of color, so fragrant prevalent in this land. Especially inconsistent is exclusion for race and color from membership of labor unions, which claim the right to monopolize employment. We demand state and federal laws prohibiting the same.
We continue to demand the same schools
and education for all, regardless of color, with a genuine mixing of teachers and members of school boards as of pupils. We reiterate our appreciation of the worth and work of ex-Senator Joseph Benson Foraker as expressed in our first declaration of independence. We thank and commend such men as ex-Senator Foraker and Bulkeley, who went to their political deaths at the hand of President Roosevelt battling for a square deal for the colored soldiers in the Brownsville discharge without trial, the blackest crime in the annals of our army, and here declare we will not forget their destroyer. We enflamm our our enemies the those we are not yet justice at the hands of Theodore Roosevelt, President Taft or congress. We demand that congress pass the Foraker soldier bill and pledge our opposition to every one involved in this lynching of soldiers until he reverses his position.
We declare in consistency with our first declaration our opposition to those condemned therein and that until they reverse their positions they are not entitled to the votes of self respecting colored men. We commend the native people of the Philippines for their stand for the independence of their country and in conformity with our great Declaration of Independence urge congress to grant them their independence which our republic enjoys.
We commend the colored Cuban patriots for their manly resistance against a denial of full rights. Color prejudice has grown there by the invasion of people of the United States. We call upon congress to prevent the sending of United States warships to Cuba to interfere against these Cubans fighting for their rights and liberties. Public school education is fundamental to our republic. Inasmuch as the failure of certain states to provide adequate education is its result we demand that congress pass a law for federal aid to education along the lines of the bill of that great patriot Hon. Henry W. Blair.
We advise the colored men of this country to agitate against all injustices and to use their ballots as a weapon of self defense, as a means to secure justice, liberty and equality, by voting not for the benefit of any party, but for the benefit of their race, punishing the recipients and beneficiaries of their votes who when elected are recrent to their interests by voting them out and ever seeking by alliances to weaken or diminish the hostility of their avowed enemies.
We desire to ally ourselves with all those who are laboring for equal rights and opportunities for all the oppressed people of this world. We realize that we have condemned many in these declarations, but we have not done so from malice, but of necessity the desperate resistance to the oppression of our rights. We are glad to thank Senator W. M. Crane for his stand for justice for the black battalion and favorable reception of the Moody-Pillsbury anti-lynching bill and constant loyalty as senator to the colored people.
We thank the Methodist Episcopal general conference for petitioning the Republican platform committee for this anti-lynching bill and commend the president for his appointment of Judge Pitney and nonappointment of Judge Hook on request of colored citizens. We comment also Mr. Chapin, the last presidential candidate of the National Prohibition party, for his rescue of a colored man out of the hands of a lynching mob and appeal to all friends of freedom to bring about liberty and equality for all in this land of our fathers.
MME. HACKLEY'S RECITAL.
Noted Soprano Delights Large Audi-
sence or Music Hall in Pittsburgh
ence at Music Hall in Pittsburgh.
The musical event of the season, from an individual standpoint, in Pittsburgh was the farewell recital given recently by Mme. E. Ezalia Hackley, the noted soprano singer. The affair was held in Carnegie Music hall, and the throng which assembled to hear Mme. Hackley evidenced the high esteem in which she is held by the public.
Mme. Hackley interspersed her musical selections, which were twelve in number, with interesting and instructive remarks on the mechanics of music. This created much favorable comment and showed also the rare ability and capacity of the singer and lecturer to amuse and instruct at the same time.
Throughout the twelve numbers Mme. Hackley played her own accompaniments. The first selection was given in French, the second in English and the third in Italian. There was also given with much precision Rossini's "Barber of Seville."
Mme. Hackley, after finishing her tour of retiring recitals, will devote her time to teaching voice culture among our people. The general theme of Mme. Hackley's lecture talks is on racial characteristics, culture tone, culture poise, vitalizing of tones and the pure mechanics of vocalism.
WEDDED QUARTER CENTURY.
Big Social Function For President of Arkansas Baptist College.
President and Mrs. Joseph A. Booker of the Arkansas Baptist college in Little Rock recently celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage at their beautiful home on Bishop street, Little Rock.
The occasion to *Dr. Booker had a double significance, as this is also the twenty-fifth year of his presidency of the Arkansas Baptist college. The school year recently closed was one of achievements through hard labor for the faculty and students alike. All feel that good has been accomplished and that it pays to do well the work mapped out for each to do.
The anniversary reception brought together many friends, graduates and former students of the school. Dr. and Mm. Booker were the recipients of many tokens of esteem from their immediate personal friends and also from friends and patrons of the college who assist the school financially.
Summer School at Union Institute. The enrollment at the summer school which is being held at the Union institute, Kershaw, S.C., during the month of July is quite large.

ORATORY AND MUSIC GALORE
Unique Affair In Honor of Young Men and Women Who Have Won Their Spurs at College Attended by Great Throng—Dr. P. A. Scott's Influence and Leadership.
By Miss ELIZABETN JONES.
Pittsburgh—The testimonial banquet recently given at the Bethel A. M. E. church in this city in honor of the graduates of the various institutions of learning in Pittsburgh and vicinity and also from distant cities was a most pronounced success. The banquet was given also as an incentive to other young men and women who have not yet completed their studies to press on until they reach the goal of their ambition.
The reception was planned after the manner of a regular college commencement. The program consisted of addresses, orations and original essays by a number of graduates from different institutions. The music furnished by the J. W. Myers orchestra was classical and arranged in keeping with the occasion.
The affair brought together some of the most cultured and enterprising people of Pittsburgh, representing almost every vocation and calling. The program was pronounced one of the finest ever witnessed in this city.
The following institutions were represented by the graduates:
Pittsburgh high school, Misses Eaigher Watson, Jennie Goldston, Gladys Tibbs, Jennie V. Patterson and Frank E. Scott; Braddock high school, Miss Irene O. Morris and Oliver M. Johnson; Cannonsburg high school, Miss Pearl J. Walls and Lewis A. McGee, the latter winning highest honors in a white school and receiving a gold medal.
New Brighton high school, Miss Aura B. Walden; Carnegie Technical institute, Misses Lois Hall and Carrie P. Barks; University of Pittsburgh, Leo P. Phillips; Wilberforce university, Miss Julia Bumery and William P. Bayless, A. B.; Howard university, Miss Jean Hamilton and Horace Jenkins; Storer college, Misses Roy Johnson and Hilda Hamilton; Morgan college, Walter Jackson; Beaver college, Miss Norine Webster; United Presbyterian college, Miss Hattie Simms.
These twenty-two young people are preparing to enter a variety of professions and callings, among them being domestic science, civil service, teaching, journalism, literature, pharmacy, medicine, law and the ministry.
Judging from their splendid school career, their excellent qualities and the brilliant manner in which they acquitted themselves on this occasion, a very useful future can safely be predicted for each of them.
This beautiful banquet and testimonial was planned and conducted by Dr. P. A. Scott, the popular and successful pastor of the historic old Wylie avenue church, and he has thereby not only honored in a very signal way the graduates and those whom they represent, but has won for himself new and justly merited honors as a leader in thought and activity and as a patron and indorser of the higher education of the race.
In closing the graduates' testimonial Dr. Scott announced that his purpose is to perpetuate this occasion annually and to develop it into much larger proportions from year to year. To encourage and assist in the development of a strong and intelligent citizenship should be the duty of every person who has the interest of the race at heart. This is Dr. Scott's idea, and it has met hearty approval.
LEFT FORTUNE TO WHITES.
Relatives Not Mentioned In Will of Miss Catherine Simmons.
Miss Catherine Simmons, whose death occurred recently in Middletown, Conn., left an estate valued at $10,000. When the will of Miss Simmons was filed for probate it was discovered that of five bequests it of $500 each made to various institutions not one cent was left to her relatives.
The rest of the estate, according to the terms of the will, is left to former Governor Frank B. Weeks, who is a resident of Middletown. The income from this residue is to be distributed by the ex-governor to whatever charities or benevolence his good judgment may dictate.
So far as is known, all of the estate goes to other than members of her own race. The colored people, therefore, who knew the deceased expressed great surprise when they found out the terms of the will when it was offered for probate. It is said that the relatives of Miss Simmons will not contest the terms of the document, as they feel sure that Mr. Weeks will do the square thing.
Miss Simmons was well known in Middletown and vicinity, where she had lived upward of fifty years. She had worked for many of the wealthy white families and had saved her earnings. She was well thought of by all for whom she had worked. The amount of her savings shows that she was no spendthrift.

The ridiculous position into which the citizens of this state are thrust by the activities of the few who have political aspirations find illustration in the last meeting of the State Political League which was held in Colorado Springs, July 4. The Statesman has refrained from comment upon this meeting until now when all returns are in and all sides have had opportunity to be heard. It appears that the large crowd expected at the meeting did not materialize, nor did the ambitious plans of its officials succeed in saving it from the personal aggrandizement schemes of self-seekers. Too bad! There is a real work to be done for the race in a public way in Colorado. We need not all agree on parties, candidates or politics, to be in union in trying to build a better foundation for our industrial and political future. But so long as men who have no public interest at heart can unite in rolling logs, the public cannot afford to applaud their efforts even though there are a few good men who are inveigled into their "state meetings." Political parties are too wise to be fooled by gatherings of political grafters, and so far from the few good men giving such gatherings standing, they only convict themselves of lack of good judgment.
The Statesman denies the worth of political organizations made up of job seekers. It denies the usefulness of state meetings made of persons who are self-appointed. In the light of the history of the organization, we affirm the more vigorously our condemnation of this movement that is the product of the brain of men who confess their unworthiness to be considered on their own merit and seek to "get the money" by means of meretricious political organizations.
TOO MUCH MEDDLING.
After the people of Denver have expressed such an overwhelming choice of the Citizens' party and Mayor Arnold for their official for the next four years, it is the part of fairness and good sense for those who opposed them, from ex-Mayor Speer down, to keep hands off, to give them free rein to govern the city as they see fit without interference. It is to be expected that they will make some mistakes especially in the beginning; it is to be expected that there will be some friction pending adjustment of working forces. However, neither of these conditions gives excuse for persons whom the people have repudiated, to point the finger of scorn in an attempt to make themselves seem holy by comparison. The city has a right to relief from agitation that is profitless and the Denver Times, which is the organ of Robert Speer is becoming a public nuisance by its attempts to besmirch the new administration. The people are not so foolish that they do not see the motives of the critics.
We do not wish to be considered as championing the cause of the Citizens' party. We simply ask for common sense acquiescence in the will of the majority. The condemnation of Michael Delaney will not hang any laurel wreaths on the brow of the exmayor nor furnish one single reason for a change in the public estimate of his administration.
The daily papers of this city have been relating the details of an assault upon a little girl. They have been temperate and have been singularly free from reports of prospective lynchings. They have not felt called upon to deliver any long homilies upon the deprivacy of any class or race. The difference is noteworthy between the treatment of this crime and others in which Negroes are supposed to have been guilty. The murders, the purse-snatching, the attempted assaults of which blacks have been accused, have been related in red ink. The lurid imaginings of space-writing reporters have been given full rein. Yet where a most brutal crime against a child is committed by a white man, there is no flurry, no excitement, no attempt to work up a lynching, and most remarkable of all, a man who is accused of the crime is permitted to be turned loose because the child cannot identify him.
At the door of the American press can be laid the greater part of the blame for lynching.

BOARD OF TRADE WIELDS POWER
New Organization In Nashville Proves Its Worth.
HAS GONFIDENCE OF PUBLIC.
Brief Summary of What the Concern Stands For and Some of the Constructive Work Which It Has Already Accomplished-Guided by Men of Business Experience.
Nashville, Tenn.-The most constructive and important organization to be found in any community among the colored people is the Nashville Negro board of trade, which has only been in existence since March, 1912. The organization has within its membership most all of the important business, professional and industrial men of the community, and, besides performing the usual functions of a board of trade, it co-operates with the Nashville board of
A. B.
PRESIDENT R. F. BOYD.
trade and other commercial organizations in matters affecting the welfare of the people of the city.
During its short existence it has been instrumental in doing certain things that more than justify its title. It is really the vanguard of organizations in the south among our people that point the way to an amicable adjustment of differences and that get things for the race from the powers that be.
The board of trade here occupies the commanding position in the eyes of the people, and for the most part its mandates have the force of law with the people. Its leaders and officials are called into counsel on all matters that affect the colored people, and it keeps regularly employed a young man who acts as executive secretary and looks after its interests, which are the interests of the colored people.
What the Board Has Accomplished.
The Negro board of trade is regarded in all respects as an auxiliary of the Nashville board of trade and has by co-operation with the white organization been able to secure a city park for colored people which cost $18,000 unimproved. It has assisted in the "city beautiful movement" to the extent of cleaning up waste places in communities and planting flowers and trees. It has aided in the sanitary improvement of localities and now has in charge the matter of raising funds for a library site.
This latter proposition is purely voluntary on the part of the board of trade. The city has expressed itself as willing to provide a library site and appropriate $2,500 annually for its maintenance. This was in accordance with the conditions made by Andrew Carnegie, who has signified his willingness to give $25,000 for a library for the colored people of this city.
The Nashville board of trade has taken upon itself the task of raising $5,000 from among our people in this city with which a suitable site will be purchased. In all these activities the Negro board of trade has the active leadership of Dr. R. F. Boyd, president, who is also president of the People's Bank and Trust company.
Mr. D. Wellington Berry serves as secretary and looks after all the details of the organization. Various matters are attended to by division committees, the executive committee being headed by A. N. Johnson. Other officials are A. S. Rucker, vice president, and I. L. Moore, treasurer.
Research Society to Hear Dr. Thompson
The Society For Historical Research in Yonkers, N. Y., is looking forward with much interest to the coming of Dr. E. W. Thompson of Sierra Leone, who is to be the principal speaker at the August meeting of the organization. Dr. Thompson is expected to arrive in New York during the week of July 20 and will go direct to Yonkers, where he will be the guest of Mr. John E. Bruce, president of the society. Dr. Thompson is the author of a history of the colony of Sierra Leone.
Large Sum For Missions and Education
At the recent annual meeting of the
Women's Baptist Missionary and Educational association held at Cape Charles, Va., the committee on finance reported the sum of $3,274.12 for the fiscal year. The sessions were presided over by the president, Mrs. M. R Johnson. Generous aid was given to home and foreign mission work and to several educational institutions.

"It cured me of a dreadful cough," writes Mrs. J. F. Davis, Stickney Corner, Me., "after doctor's treatment and all other remedies had failed."

Where parting comes not, one soul landed more—

The Nathaniels, that noted class of boys, made a most excellent showing at the picnic in their new baseball suits. They also played a very interesting game, winning from a team made up on the grounds.
Other organized classes were in evidence with their colors: the Willing Workers, with their brown and gold, and the T. S. with their purple and gold could be easily distinguished in the great throng of people.
It was the pleasure of our school to carry out a large number of visitors and strangers to our picnic, all of whom reported having had the time of their lives.

RHEUMATISM
Denver, Colo.
Gentlemen:
I want to give you a short history of my condition so that others who have the same trouble I had may know there is a cure for rheumatism. In July, 1909, I noticed that I had inflammatory rheumatism. In health I had weighed 152 pounds; I dropped to 120 pounds. After being confined to the bed for two and a half months a friend recommended Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. In the summer of 1910 I began to take it. At this time, April, 1911, I have been well and robust for five months. My appetite is good and my weight is 140 pounds and not a trace of the old trouble remains. I have taken six bottles of the Twentieth Century Wonder Powder. If you want to refer anyone to me I will gladly express the merits of this medicine.

National Body to Meet In Hampton. Progress in New York.
For several years the months of July and August have been noted for the great gatherings of women's clubs, educational associations and business organizations. This year will be no exception to the general custom.
The New York State Federation of Women's Clubs held its fifth annual meeting at St. Mark's M. E. church, in New York city, July 2 to 3, inclusive. The meeting was largely attended by delegates and visitors from all over the state. There were also many visitors from Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Jersey.
The reports showed that the clubs in the main were in a prosperous condition. The report of the state organizer, Mrs. M. C. Lawtow of Brooklyn, showed that she had organized or brought into the federation eight Negro clubs, besides others which were brought in by the various workers in other sections of the state, since the last annual meeting. The biennial meeting of the National Association of Women's Clubs will be held in Hampton, Va., beginning on Monday, July 22. This is the largest body of colored women in the United States. The sessions will be presided over by Miss E. C. Carter of New Bedford, Mass.
The annual meeting of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs, Mrs. C. S. Gunner president, was held in Jersey City, N. J., for three days beginning on Wednesday, July 17. Delegates were present in large numbers from all the New England states. The reports showed an increase in the membership of the clubs generally. The organization as a whole is in splendid financial condition and gives largely to educational and charitable work.

bitlous, Dr. L. T. Delany goes forth from the medical school of the University of Pennsylvania to shoulder the responsibilities of life in the business world. He has shown great adaptability for his chosen profession and has prospects for a bright future.
He made a brilliant record while in school, taking high rank in gynecology, surgery and pathology. While a student at the University of Pennsylvania Dr. Delany made a study of the hospital facilities at the Mercer and Douglass hospitals in Philadelphia, acting in the capacity of resident physician. Thus he gained a considerable practical experience.
Dr. Delany is a native of Raleigh, N. C., whither he will return to begin his professional career. Before taking up his studies in the north Dr. Delany graduated from the medical school of Shaw university. He is also an alumnus of the St. Augustine Normal school.
DOWNINGTOWN INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL MAKES PROGRESS.
Trustees' Financial Report and President's Statement Are Encouraging.
At the recent annual meeting of the board of trustees of the Downingtown (Pa.) Industrial school President William A. Creditt, LL. D., and Treasurer Dr. T, J. Minton rendered satisfactory and encouraging reports. The meeting was held at the office of the accountant, Mr. Charles H. Brooks, on Lombard street, Philadelphia.
The reports were approved by the board and audited by the local auditing committee, which is composed of the Rev. J. M. Palmer and Mr. R. G. Jackson. President Creditt's report showed that all notes had been met and that the students had been unusually prompt in the payment of their board bills. The student enrollment for the year was 134, which is the largest since the school opened.
One of the special features which
have contributed to the success or the school among students has been their willingness and ability to do well whatever task to which they are assigned. A glance at the buildings and campus in their neatness and inviting appearance will verify this statement. Progress along all lines marks the work of the school year 1911-12. Keeping the motto of the school ever in mind (self help through self work), a number of students worked their way through the industrial branches during the year. Fifteen graduates are prepared to take up the higher branches and are prepared to enter Lincoln university at the opening of the next school year.
President W. A. Creditt was re-elected for another year. Dr. Creditt says that the friends of the school have been exceedingly generous. "This is the best year in gifts and donations the school has had." Special mention was made of help received from various sources, individual and from organizations. The amount received from students was $6,417.78, donations, $1,012.88; state of Pennsylvania, $5,000.
Workers Among Children Confer. The recent joint conference of workers among girls and the conference of workers among boys was held at Riverdale (N. Y.) Orphan asylum, on the Hudson. The meeting was largely attended by representatives of the work from New York city and Brooklyn. There are 178 boys and 117 girls cared for by the asylum, which is superintended by F. W. Barber. Miss C. M. Wood is the first director, and there are other capable assistants who take an active part in the work.
Lott Carey Baptist Convention. The next annual meeting of the Lott Carey Baptist convention will be held in Portsmouth, Va., beginning on Wednesday morning, Aug. 28. The sessions will be held in the Zion Baptist church, of which the Rev. Dr. J. M. Armstead is pastor.

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.

EMINENT RACE LEADER'S WORK
Church Honors Worth of Dr. L Garland Penn.
NOTED SCHOLAR AND AUTHOR.
Past Achievements of the Newly Elected Secretary of Freedman Aid Society—Insures Future Usefulness of the Organization Which Has Done So Much For Afro-Americans.
Atlanta, Ga.—The election of Dr. I. Garland Penn of this city to the office of secretary of the Freedman Aid society at the recent session of the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church seems to have given general satisfaction. Caring for a large number of well known educational institutions throughout the south, the Freedman Aid society is regarded with peculiar affection and gratitude by a large portion of the colored people of America.
They all welcome the step that insures the continuance of its usefulness by placing at its head a man who is so
J. H. H.
DR. L. GARLAND PENN.
well known by reason of his constructive work in several fields of racial endeavor. The work of the Freedman Aid society needs at this time a man of forceful character and energetic manner such as Dr. Penn is known to be. He is peculiarly known as a man who has been successful at everything he has attempted.
He called the attention of the country to the remarkable achievement of the Negro race through the success of the exhibit at the Cotton States exposition, held in Atlanta in 1895, because of the painstaking care and general forethought that directed his every movement as head of the department.
It is generally known, too, that through his invitation he gave that eminent educator, Dr. Booker T. Washington, the opportunity at the Cotton States exposition to promulgate his gospel of amity and mutual helpfulness between the races, for which he has since become famous the world over. Born Educator and Well Known Author
Born Educator and Well Known Author
Dr. Penn came to this position from the public schools of his home town, Lynchburg, Va. As principal of the school in Lynchburg he not only succeeded in his work, but drew considerable attention to himself through the authorship of a distinctively race work. "The Afro-American Press." This book of 600 pages was an authority at the time upon the relation of the Negro press to the abolition of the race.
With reference to this book Bishop Vincent said. "The pen is the sword of the African by which he will win place and power." The present volume is a library of valuable history and biography and a picture gallery as well. Dr. Penn has since written "Self Education" and "The United Negro" and is a joint author of "Graded Sunday Schools."
He is perhaps more widely known among the young people of the race regardless of denomination than any other churchman among us. Thousands have heard of eminent prelates and other men who have stood in the limelight. Throughout the country as he has gone on his mission as assistant secretary of the Epworth League he has come in contact with young men and women, has had heart to heart talks with them and has been of great help and inspiration to hundreds.
His success in the Epworth League has been reflected in the many fields into which he has been called, in all of which he served with particular distinction in the matter of genuine service. It is quite fair to say that Dr. Penn first emphasized to Negro churchmen the value of numbers and organization in all departments of church work.
Forceful Leader Among Young People. While in the young people's Christian and educational congress he sought to unite all the churches into one impressive organization that at least would serve to emphasize the readiness of our young people to respond to capable and forceful leadership. The movement has its reflection in the many Sunday school and missionary organizations which the different denominations have since taken up of their own accord. It is therefore peculiarly appropriate that he should be continued by the
bishops of the church upon the commission on federation of all the colored Methodist churches throughout the world, upon which he is the ranking lay member. In the matter of organizations Dr. Penn has a notable career. He has to his credit the Epworth League in his own church, which in the past sixteen years he has built up until it occupies the position of the best and most widely organized Christian society among the young colored people, yielding by far the largest results.
He engineered the first and most successful Negro exposition movement, during which time he also called together the Negro physicians, giving birth to the idea which has since resulted in the forceful National Medical association.
Through the national Negro young people's congress Dr. Penn offered for the first time in all history a movement whereby Negroes of all denominations could come together in one great Christian movement for the race. The last movement which he pushed to a successful conclusion was that of quadruple conventions among the colored conferences in the Methodist Episcopal church whereby several benevolent causes among the colored people could be placed in the way of self support.
Fathered Fifthieth Anniversary Idea.
Out of these conventions came the decision to observe the fiftieth anniversary of the emancipation of the Negro by the M. E. church on behalf of the Freedman Aid society to raise $500,000 for the endowment of schools.
Dr. Penn, the originator of the convention movement, could not foresee at the time of putting forward these conventions that in less than two years he would be called to the office of one of the corresponding secretaries of the Freedman Aid societies and given the task of pushing forward the great jubilee movement, which was the outgrowth of these conventions.
Again, Dr. Penn twenty-five years ago, when he lived in Lynchburg, Va., undertook to take the lead with others in having the local church, of which he was a member, give $5,000 in one sum for the establishment of the Virginia Collegiate and Industrial institute in that city, now one of the Freedman Aid schools.
His church gave this sum of money. Perhaps the most effective argument which he will have to use in securing funds throughout the church for education will be that one church through his own efforts contributed such a sum of money for the education of Negro children, emphasizing at this early time self help upon their part.
His success in these and other efforts leads the people of the country to feel that Dr Penn will bring to the Freedman Aid society, in addition to his energetic and forceful manner, the ripe experience he has gained in all these activities, and thus be the means of bringing about larger results for the work of the schools in the south that depend almost entirely upon the Freedman Aid society for their maintenance.
Foreign Visitor's Hopeful Message.
Native Africans of education and means who make visits to the United States from time to time invariably speak hopefully of their people. Especially is this true of those from the west coast. The Rev. Dr. A. M. De Lima of Cape Palmas, Gold Coast, West Africa, who is on a visit to this country, spoke at the Bridge Street A.M. E. church in Brooklyn the latter part of June. Dr. De Lima said that the work of education and missionary endeavor had wrought mightily in the civilization of the people throughout his section of the country.
Annual Meeting of True Reformers.
The annual meeting of the Washington division of the Grand United Order of True Reformers will be held on Sunday evening, July 14. The sermon will be preached by the Rev. S. P. W. Drew, pastor of the Cosmopolitan Baptist church. Addresses will be delivered by Grand Worthy Master Floyd Ross, Grand Worthy Secretary Maurice Rousselet and Mrs. S. F. Lewis, acting chief of the Washington division.
Dr. J. W. E. Bowen of Atlanta, Ga., will lecture at Shorter Chapel for the benefit of Shorter and Scott churches, July 22. Admission 25 cents.
