WELCOME TO THE KNIGHTS OF PYTHIA Fort Russell Boys Are at the Maneuvers Twenty-Third Year Fort Rus Boys the M NINTH CAVALRY RETREAT. Two large storage tents are erected in camp by Chaplain Prioleau. He has arranged it so that every man may have all the amusement he wants. Here the soldiers can come after duties are done and amuse themselves in games, such as checkers, chess, filch, pit or dominoes and while they are amusing themselves a $50.00 graphophone gives music to the delight of scores of men. Religious services are conducted twice on each Sunday. Last Sunday night we had the beautiful and impressive scene of the "Passion Play." The chaplain promises us two exhibitions of moving pictures this week. He has about 6,000 feet of films and should the weather permit, they will certainly be exhibited. The men are delighted in the way that the chaplain has provided for their amusement. We have the best amusement tent in camp. Chaplain Prjoleau is a hard worker for his men. I venture to state that there are few chaplains who are so greatly interested in the soldier's welfare of his regiment as the chaplain of the Ninth Cavalry. If our men would take heed to his advices, save their money, live clean and upright lives, the Ninth Cavalry would be the best regiment in the U. S. army; as it is, I do not think that we are far behind any, and are the equals of the majority if not the best. POLE MOUNTAIN, WYO The maneuvers during the week ending July 28, have been very interesting and instructive. More assimilations of real conditions of war were participated in than ever before. In one of the problems after the battle had been fought every man was required to cook his own luncheon. In another engagement in which the cavalry was greatly outnumbered, the mounted troops were driven away. About 9 o'clock in the night the mounted troops returned, and harrassed the dismounted forces of the enemy during the entire night. The object sought was that our advanced cavalry should so disturb the morale of the enemy that fresh troops could be brought up early in the morning and make an easy capture. The First Regiment of Colorado National Guard left Pole Mountain on the 26th of July. The guardsmen made it very pleasant for the Ninth Cavalry. The state troops gave an entertainment every evening that they were in camp. The first four evenings their entertainments consisted mostly of boxing and wrestling with the Ninth boys. But the Ninth boys outclassed the citizen soldiers so far that the manly sport had to be given up, and some other kinds substituted. The Colorado men lacked training, but their good conduct while in camp could not be surpassed by even the best disciplined regular regiments. This is an example of what an intelligent untrained soldier can do. The Ninth Cavalry will break camp to return to the post August 5. The regiment came very near be ing washed away by a big rain Tuesday afternoon. The floor of every tent was torn up by the great torents. The drops of rain beat on the tents so hard that it seemed diffi cult to tell which was the better place the inside or the outside of the tent CHEYENNE, WYO. Mrs. Mark Carter has been very sick during the past week. Mr. Frank Matthews of Clarinda, Iowa, is in our city. Mrs. Wm. Ashford, who has been suffering with rheumatism for about four years, is now very much improved. Last Sunday she paid a visit to Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Redd and to Mrs. Ward. This is the first time that Mrs. Ashford has gone out of her house for more than twelve months. Thursday evening of last week Allen Chapel celebrated the opening of its new dining room and kitchen. This addition makes a great improvement to the interior of the church. For the entertainment Mr. Jefferson, Miss Jeffersin and Miss May Smith each sang a beautiful solo. Mr. Muse, Miss Thistle, Mr. Montgomery, Mrs. Montgomery and Mrs. Ward each read interesting papers. Mr. C. C. Boyd has returned from Casper, Wyo. Mr. Mark Carter was in last Sunday from Laramie visiting his wife. There were about a hundred Ninth Cavalry men in the city Sunday. Most of them were married men visiting their families. Mrs. Henry Morrow has just received the sad news of the death of Doctor Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn. The relatives of the deceased have the deep sympathy of every friend in this city. CANON CITY. Miss Dorra Wells is on the sick list. Rev. Brandon will soon make a visit to the Sunday schools of the state. Prof. Allen of Pueblo has been appointed assistant pastor to occupy the pulpit in his absence. Hurrah for Emancipation Day! The entire colored population is preparing for a grand time. There will be a picnic, ball game, speech-making, a social and a grand ball. Rep. Trusty, our young brilliant orator, begins the evening program with an address on Abraham Lincoln. Friends of this young man are advising him to take up the study of law or ministry. Rev. Meek preached a soul stirring sermon for us on Sunday at Mt. Olive Baptist church. Miss Alice Walton has returned from Kansas City, Mo. Many visitors from the Springs Pueblo and nearby, are expected in our city on the 5th. ARE EVER AT WAR.

BECKAM, Resident Agent, Box 149C, Route 2, Littreton, Colo. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUG. 3. 1912. TRINIDAD NEWS. The revival at Grace A. M. E. church closed on Friday night. During this time Rev. R. L. Pope of Denver poured forth his strength in several sermons and songs that will serve as spiritual bread to the many who had the good fortune to hear him. The church was greatly helped by the presence of this strong young man. In turn Rev. Pope was much impressed with the city and its citizens, industries and the many beautiful scenes. On Friday, July 26, Rev. Pope was escorted to the summit of the Giant Fishers Peak by Rev. J. H. Brown and Mr. Chas. Blackwood. This was a record-breaker in every way, for never before has any one been known to make this journey on toot to the top and back the same day, but these young men made the distance in less than ten hours and none of them seemed much worse for wear, for Rev. Pope rose the very heights of his soul on the evening after the journey was ended in one of his most logical sermons. The public was anxious that the meeting would not stop when it did, but the Rev. Pope was due to make it home on account of matters of interest and sickness in his family. The grand celebration and picnic given by the A. M. E. church was a grand affair. Mrs. J. H. Brown has been quite ill for five weeks, but is some better at this writing. The race is putting forth steps in the right direction. Several citizens from this city and some of Raton have taken up good farms in Las Animas county, which means that Trinidad, in a few years to come will be sought for by those who seek wisdom. Lo, this is the way our fathers went. The promoters of these land deals, we believe to be Mr. W. A. Jordan. The writer can only say to those who have not as yet thought it wise to come into possession of land and thereby be what they cannot be without it. Get a home on a farm and live longer, live better, give back to the world something for what you are indebted. The musical concert at the Union Labor hall, Saturday night, by Miss Nellie L. Brown was a high up affair. Don't forget to witness at the People's Presbyterian church, Tuesday night, Aug. 13, the best rendered program of the season by the famous Virginia Jubilee Singers. KNIGHTS TO HONOR GREEN. Public Resception For Supreme Chancellor in Oakland Aug. 12 The Oakland (Cal.) Sunshine has jone the lion's share in giving publicity to the public reception to be given at Germania hall, in Oakland, on Monday evening, Aug. 12, in honor of Sir S. N. Green of New Orleans. Mr. Green is the supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, North and South America and the four other continents, and is everywhere held in high esteem by the members of the order. He is a delegate to the grand lodge of California, Marshal Nell lodge, No. 4, and Pride of the West lodge, No. 7. The occasion promises to be one of much interest and benefit to the order in that section. Preparations for the accommodation of many visitors have been made. The reception will be free to all. The committee having charge of the affair is composed of J. E. Rivers, chairman; Joseph R. Healreelson, A. B. Martin, L. F. Marsh, S. E. Young, W. W. Anderson, E. W. Levy, C. L. Scott and W. W. Dewson, secretary. EDWARD H. WILSON RESIGNS. President of Sons of Virginia Takes Society by Surprise. The Society of the Sons of Virginia was taken by surprise at the last meeting in July, at which President Edward H. Wilson suddenly resigned. Mr. Wilson had made no complaint to the board of directors nor to the society at any of its meetings. In view of the recommendations of the board of directors recently made that the sick and death benefits be increased beginning with September, it was thought that everything was in line for larger results in securing new members next fall. Vice President Charles H. Turner will be acting pres- Ident until the annual election of officers in December. The society is strong financially and has had a most successful career for the past fourteen years. Plans are now under way for the annual reception, which is to be held in November. READY FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF THE BUSINESS LEAGUE Effort to Make Chicago Assemblage Greatest in Organization's History. The thirteenth annual meeting of the National Business league will be held in Chicago Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Aug. 21, 22 and 23. The local Negro Business league of Chicago has secured the Sevpath regiment armory for the sessions. Delegates intending to be present should as early as practicable notify W. D. Neighbors, secretary Chicago Negro Business league, 3517 State street, Chicago, of such intention, so that proper accommodations may be reserved. Last year nearly every state in the Union was represented at the annual meeting held in Little Rock. Officers of the organization are now earnestly at work to secure at Chicago an even larger gathering. The Little Rock meeting set a high standard in point of attendance, attractiveness of program and hospitality of its guests, but the Chicago league is striving to have the coming meeting surpass all previous ones. The Chicago chamber of commerce joined with the local Negro Business league in inviting the national organization to meet in Chicago and is co-operating to welcome and entertain those who may attend. Very low reduced rates will be offered from all parts of the country and especially from the south to the meeting. Local leagues are urged to elect delegates at once. Experience has shown that the railroad authorities in every section of the country are willing to arrange for special Pullman or tourist car parties. It is earnestly desired that plans for such parties be arranged for as early as practicable. Some of the strongest men and women of the race will be present and speak. These gatherings annually bring together a group of hopeful, energetic, aspiring and successful men and women who are doing their part of the world's work. Sessions of the following affiliated organizations will be held at the same time: The National Negro Bankers' association, the National Negro Funeral Directors' association, the National Negro Press association and the National Negro Bar association—a group of the strongest organizations in the country among the Negro people. THRIFTY BUSINESS TOWN. What Afro-Americans Are Doing In New Rochelle, N. Y. Always progressive and enterprising, the colored people of New Rochelle, N. Y., have forged ahead along many lines of industry within the past ten years. There has been recently opened fine summer gardens on Brook street, adjoining League hall. The gardens are equipped with all the latest devices such as are used in up to date amusement parks. There is also an open air theater, where refined vaudeville shows are given by professional talent. The liberal patronage which there enterprises are receiving from our people indicates growth in unity and race pride among us. Let business men conduct their establishments with an eye single to the interests of their patrons as well as profit to themselves, and there will be fewer failures for want of proper support. Brookton's Successful Business Man. Mr. Watt Terry of Brockton, Mass., who will in all probability be one of the speakers at the Chicago meeting of the National Negro Business league, is a successful business man. Mr. Terry recently purchased the well known Checkerton and Chessston properties for $150,000. He is rated at $500,000, all of which he has made within six years. Mr. Terry is interested in Y. M. C. A. and church work and is the superintendent of the Messiah Baptist Sunday school.

The passing of Bishop H. W. Warren takes away one of the pastor's strongest friends. He gave him his first appointment in the Lincoln Conference and three years later ordained him elder and sent him to Seattle, Wash., and since his incumbency in this city has caused him to be promoted to the district superintendency. During the first year in this city personally transferred the mortgage and helped to raise the $500 which was paid on the same. For the race he established Gammon Theological Seminary through the Rev. Eligah Gammon and endowed it was $750,000. He has gone to his reward but his labors live after him. We bow our heads in humble submission to Him who does all things well. Last week we forgot to mention four other names which should have appeared on the missionary program which are as follows: Misses Perry and McPherson, duet; instrumental, Miss Parker, and a splendid paper by Mrs. A. T. Kerr. The choir will render a sacred concert Sunday evening. Rev. J. B. Rice will render a part on the program in the form of a short address. Come early in order to secure a comfortable seat. These musicals always attract a large and appreciative audience. Missess Perry and McPherson led the League very acceptably last Sunday evening. Miss Mag丽en read a very interesting paper and the Rev. Rice sang a solo to the delight of all. A carpet committee has been organized by Miss Rosa L. Rice to put in a new carpet in the church.

MANY NOTABLES ON PROGRAM National Religious Training School Opens Doors to Leaders of Thought In All Denominations—Professor Kelly Miller Presides Over Sociological Conference. Durham, N. C.-The recent ministers' conference at the National Religious Training school in this city was the greatest interdenominational ministers' meeting ever held among Afro-Americans. Every denomination of importance was represented. Ministers came from all sections of the country, with hundreds of teachers from nearly all of the southern states and from many of the northern states. Professor Kelly Miller presided over the sociological conference. Among the prominent speakers were Archdeacon H. B. DeLaney, Rev. Dr. James E. King, Dr. E. H. Hunter, Hon. John C. Dancy, Dr. J. A. Savage, Dr. Galvin, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, Dean D. A. Martin of Gammon Theological seminary and the noted white theologians, lecturers and scholars. Drs. W. Y. Chapman and Jesse L. Hurlburt. Dr. James E. Shepard, president of the school, was highly praised for the service that he is rendering the race. The propaganda that has been started by this live movement will become a powerful agency in the up 27% of the Negro in every section of the world. The following are excerpts from the report of the committee on resolutions of the conference: The ministerial conference of the National Religious Training School and Chautauqua, composed of clergymen of all denominations and of various sections, sends greetings to its fellow laborers everywhere and commends to their favorable consideration the following results of our study and free discussion during the most delightful and profitable week it has been our privilege to enjoy the hospitality of the time of this national venture. We heartily endorse the purpose of this institution, and because it makes religion the cornerstone of the intellectual structure it is rearing we pledge our support and influence in the furtherance of its high and noble aspirations. We call upon ministers and religious workers everywhere to recognize the need for and importance of this new educational propaganda, which meets a peculiar need among our people. We believe that every minister or church brought under the influence of this conference owes the support of its fellow laborers to the attitude for the great work he is doing for human uplift, social betterment and religious culture. We therefore recommend that all churches and ministers who can shall give to this great institution their support by word and deed to the extent of their ability and opportunity, both in financial aid and efforts, to increase the student body. Of the subjects investigated and discussed there seems to be a consensus of opinion on the ministers and other religious and social workers as to the following, of general interest, which deserves concerted support: We note with apprehension the growing lack in Sabbath observance. We stand for the old time strict observance of our Sabbath as the Lord's day, believing it should be kept as a day of worship and rest for God's glory and man's good. We therefore discourage its desecration by excursions, the publishing and reading of books, the Sunday prayer and all forms of picnics or other forms of amusements, which we believe to be clearly wrong and ungodly. We deprecate the fact that the family altar is not a fixed institution, as it should be, among even church members, and we recommend that all ministers seek to encourage the establishment of such an altar in every home in order that family devotions may become the rule among church people and thereby bring the children early under the influence of godly tradition. We note with pleasure that the study of sociology is finding its rightful and natural place among church workers. We believe that the minister is the leader of the people and that he should exercise that leadership for social betterment, whether in the country, small town or city pastorage. He should encourage cooperation between his church and other uplifting social influences, such as the Y. M. A. Y. Y. C. A. settlement and church organization of the church should always touch other forms of organized endeavors, that the gospel may reach all and the spirit of Jesus get a firmer grip upon the world. We recognize that the matter of amusements is one upon which the churches hold various opinions, but we believe it to be the duty of the church as well as the desire of all religious people to bring all helpful amusements under the supervision of the church, and we recommend that individuals address themselves to this important task. We believe crime to be on the decrease, and we feel that it is the duty of the church and ministry to employ every movement which has for its purpose the further reduction and prevention of crime. We regard the saloon and all forms of whisky traffic to be among the chief breeders of crime. Ministers and the church militant must fight with all might and courage to prevent crime incubator with its long train of corruprogeny, most destructive of morals and religion. In addition to the minister's obligation to explain and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, we recognize the further duty which devolves upon us to discover among those brought under his influence and to call into service lay workers for the advancement of Christ's kingdom. We therefore urge that every minister himself prayerfully to this important task in order that the efficiency of both the minister and the church may be increased for good.

Superior Advantages Offered by Hospital Under Federal Control In Washington Are Highly Appreciated. What Surgeon In Chief William A. Warfield Is Doing. By R. W. THOMPSON, Washington. — Not nearly as many people know as ought to know that there is at the nation's capital, primarily for the benefit of Afro-Americans, one of the very largest and most completely equipped hospitals in the world. This is Freedmen's hospital, established shortly after the civil war as a part of the movement that gave to the race Howard university, its much needed medical school and other facilities for the propagation of higher education. Visitors who come to Washington invariably ask about this magnificent M. B. WILLIAM A. WARFIELD, M. D. institution, and it is pointed out as one of the conspicuous "show places" of the town. Freedman's hospital is a government institution—a bureau of the department of the interior—and is supported by direct appropriations by congress. Its privileges are therefore open to all the people, but its functions are for the most part to administer to the needs of sick and injured persons of the Negro race. Patients admitted to the hospital are classed under two heads-United States and the District of Columbia. Nearly 3,000 were received during the past year. In the surgical division 1,767 operations were performed, an increase of 285 over the previous year. The death rate of 5.6 is regarded as very low for a hospital of this kind, where many emergency cases are registered. In the outdoor department 4,839 persons were treated, an increase of 292 over last year. There were 12,712 prescriptions compounded, and the emergency cases numbered 983. Of the 2,900 patients treated during the year 1,882 were residents of the District and 1,018 were from the states. This illustrates the area covered by this great institution and the manifold benefits distributed by it. High and commanding a fine view of the city, the hospital occupies one of the prettiest and most healthful spots to be found anywhere. Dr. William A. Warfield, the alert and ever progressive surgeon in chief, has asked for an appropriation of $69,000 for such a building, and it is likely to be provided for at the next session of congress. The acquisition of the Nurses' home is one of Dr. Warfield's proudest achievements, as he values the nurse training department as one of the truly great features of the hospital service. This year there were forty-two women in the school for nurses. Dr. William A. Warfield has been surgeon in chief of Freedmen's hospital since 1901, rising steadily by meritorious service from interne. first assistant and second assistant surgeon. He is a "self made man" in the truest sense of the term. He is a native of Montgomery county, Md. He started his early labors as a farmer's boy, working for 25 cents per day. Dr. Warfield is surrounded by an unusually competent, faithful and loyal corps of assistants, and his consulting staff embraces a long list of the ablest physicists and surgeons of both races in the country. They handle every conceivable type of medical and surgical cases, and in the hospital are performed some of the most intricate and difficult operations known to surgical science. Dr. Warfield's immediate corps of assistants is as follows: Dr. S. L. Carson, assistant surgeon; Dr. C. A. Brooks, resident physician; Dr. Walter Van Swearingen, pathologist; Dr. George W. Davis, anesthetist. F. D. Henry is chief clerk in the office, with Miss Arsine Elizabeth Jones as stenographer and W. E. Cobb as general clerk. The nurses' staff include Laura MacHale, superintendent; Emma Mac Irwin, assistant superintendent; Martha T. Cabaniss, night supervisor; Marion V. Lucas and Bertha J. Turner, head nurses.

RACE PROGRESS IN WILMINGTON Success of Thomas H. Hooper Worthy of Note. EXPERT LUMBER INSPECTOR Claim of the Pessimist Refuted In the Actual Achievements and Thrift of Afro-Americans in North Carolina. Increase In the Number of Skilled Laborers in Evidence. By GEORGE F. KING. Wilmington, N. C.—That the Negro is making substantial progress in all the vocations of life that he is engaged in is being evidenced every day. Some pessimists claim that he will ultimately lose out in the battle of the survival of the fittest, but indications are to the contrary. As a concrete example that the Negro will always be a factor in this country and will not be displaced as artisan and in the many other avocations is a character in this city who is unassumingly sustaining the reputation that the Negro artisan gained years ago in the southland. For thirty years Mr. Thomas H. Hooper, a quiet and progressive Afro-American, possessing exceptional ability in his work, has been employed in the lumber business in this city. Today, with another Afro-American, Mr. John Webber, who holds a similar position with one of the largest lumber mills in the country, he is an expert lumber inspector and has held this position for eighteen years. It is an inspiring scene for the Afro-American youth to visit the large plant of the Chadbourn Lumber company, composed of men from Maine, and see men of our race filling such responsible positions and then go to other large plants and see men of the other race doing the same expert work. Mr. Hooper's judgment is considered to be authentic when it comes to his line of work. If these men were not eminently fitted for such important places they certainly would not be M. THOMAS H. HOOPER found inspecting all the lumber in the large yards of this company. Mr. Hooper has simply accepted every opportunity to master his part of the business and has put the kind of character into his work that has won admiration from both races. Like the other progressive Afro-Americans born in North Carolina, he is substantially interested in any commendable commercial movement among the race. He believes in giving the young people an opportunity to enter into the world of affairs and claims that the only way to do this is to foster and encourage enterprises. In civic, social, educational and fraternal circles he is a strong factor. There is not any Afro-American in the country who is any more enthusiastic over religious work, such as the Sunday school, the practical side of church work, and the laymen movement than Mr. Hooper. He is one of the leading laymen of the African Methodist Episcopal church. He has been a member of three consecutive general conferences of this church, including the one recently held in Kansas City. For eleven years he has been the leading steward and clerk of St. Stephen's A. M. E. church, which is a fitting tribute to him, as it is one of the most commodious and well appointed edifices among our people in the country. For twelve consecutive years he has been elected delegate to the annual conference and absolutely declined the honor last year by the people who again thrust the honor upon him. It is interesting to talk with Mr. Hooper about the laymen movement, of which he is one of the prime movers throughout his connection. He takes great pleasure in giving those of his race who are trying to become taxpayers such encouragement that they will be helped. He is one of the largest taxpayers in Wilmington.

When old politicians, who have their ambitions involved, are non plussed at times by the new direct primary law of Colorado, it is not to be expected that the average voter will find it easy sailing. And this year worst of all the confusion in parties makes it unusually hard to distinguish a Republican or a Democrat. Yet it is the law, and the voter at the general election in November will have to make his choice from among candidates whose names appear on the ballot because he permitted them to do so by expressing a preference for them in the primary election in September. Colored voters must not overlook the importance of this primary election. If anything, it is more important than the general election, for it is possible that only the best men will appear on all tickets if the voters act wisely in the first instance, so that the general election can make little mistake. On the other hand, if all bad candidates win out in the primaries, no amount of brains in the general election can save the commonwealth from falling into hands ill fitted to govern. Read up now and watch the trend of political events so that you can vote intelligently in September. On the first of the month one city official took office who is unusually well known to the colored citizens, that is Chief of the Fire Department Healy. It happens for a long time past the present chief, while only an assistant, was stationed at Engine No. 3, where many came to know him and appreciate him as a genial gentleman. The knowledge gained later during the time his promotion was under discussion, that he was one of the city's most redoubtable and skillful fire fighters made him none the less liked. His appointment is the more gratify ing to his friends in that it is for life, since no political changes will affect the position he holds and he is chief subject only to his own ability to maintain the high standard he has lived up to heretofore. EDUCATORS AND BUSINESS MEN TO HOLD CHAUTAUQUA Central Kentucky Organization Meets In Georgetown Aug. 4. Georgetown, Ky.-The second annual meeting of the Central Kentucky Chautauqua company will be held here for one week, beginning on Sunday, Aug. 4. This will be the principal event for the month among the business and professional people of this community. The local committee on entertainment has completed arrangements to care for a large number of delegates and visitors. The meeting is designed to bring together for mutual interchange of views, ideas and methods of work those members of the race engaged in business and the professions. It is to see what extent progress has been made along the various lines of industry that the officers of the company are urging a large attendance at the coming meeting. The question of patronizing our business and professional concerns will receive considerable attention from those who will read papers and take part in the discussions at the various sessions. The promoters of the association believe that to show the real effort and achievements of the race in business, intelligence and worth to be a stronger argument in favor of full manhood rights than mere oratory or adopting lengthy resolutions which cannot be made effective. The company is officered by persons of known ability and who have the confidence and respect of the people. They are: President, T. L. Ballon, A. B. D. D.; vice president, Rev. F. Fielding; secretary, S. P. Savage; assistant, Miss M. Carter; correspondent, Rev. W. C. Oster, A. M.; treasurer, H. C. Finsley, M. D.

Motto: "Go forward," Ex. 14:15. Denver, Colo., Aug. 1, 1912. To the Ministers and Members of the Rocky Mountain District, Colorado Annual Conference, Greeting: This letter comes to call your attention to the fact that we are now entering upon the fourth and last quarter of this conference year, and that we will be called to meet in annual session in Cheyenne, Wyo., Wednesday, Sept. 18, 1912, and that to meet pressing obligations at the conference, the ministers must increase their contingent collections largely. The conference contingent expenses this year will be about $240.00, and you are requested to raise and report your pro rata of this amount. A law passed at the recent general conference forbids the use of more than 10 per cent. of the 36 per cent. of D. M. for annual conference' contingent expenses, hence this expense must be met from another source. We desire to remind you of our next Educational Day rally, Sunday, August 10, 1912. On that day each pastor is expected to ask every member of the church and every friend of education to contribute liberally for the rebuilding of Ward hall, Western University, which now lies in ashes. Conditions this year warrant our bishop and board of trustees in asking our people to be more liberal than ever in their offering for education. And it is encouraging to note that already friends of the school have begun to respond to this appeal with sums ranging from 50 cents to $25.00. The brave mountain climbers cannot afford to do less. The eyes of the connection will be upon the Fifth Episcopal district for the next-four years. The banner of no chieftain of this division of the great A. M. E. army has ever been known to trail in the dust. We do not believe our brave progressive army will allow it to do so now. Our chief commander has spoken; let us send the request down the line and follow it up with action. Again I wish to call your attention to one item more. The recent general conference passed a law requiring the district conference to pay the traveling expenses of the lay delegates to the annual conference. Our district conference has met and adjourned, but we did not collect sufficient money to meet this expense; therefore a committee was appointed which apportioned the amount of this expense among the several charges and asked that it be raised and turned over to the presiding elder at his final quarterly conference. You are also asked to be more liberal in your contribution for our Episcopal residence and Douglas hospital. And, finally, we have our first failure to make in raising dollar money; and I know the feeling and anxiety of every brother along this line. Let every Christian soldier do his whole duty and the ship of church will be safe. Yours in His name, J. C. C. OWENS, P. E. EVER HEAR OF • PICKLED FEET? SOUNDS FUNNY, DOESN'T IT? BUT IT'S SERIOUS-DANGEROUS-DIS- ASTROUSI YOURS MAY BE PICKLED-HOW DO YOU KNOW? "Pickled Feet!" That's a NEW one—on YOU. Pickled feet means DANGER—life-harmy for their poor, suffering owners. "Pick- as you feel your feet are now being soaked and washed with various foot remedies and reliefs. Reader—you with the blistered, tired, over-worked feet—do you know that if you wear your footwear attire, so-called medicated foot-washes you are "pick- ling" your feet. Then for your own sake, STOP IT! Stop it at ONCE! Those remedies, though they relieve pain make your foot feel warm, worse each time. Your feet feel fine for a few hours after bathing, then the "Pickle" wears off and, Oh, the your feet 40 burn, suffer, suffer. your p each t to be then th Oh m ache, The harm are is only one really safe, less sure relief for sufferers and that ONE relief is SANITATE. Ever hear of SANITATE? Then listen to the story of an eldest from all other foot reliefs—it's in a dry form, in a powder puff. Simply dust lice on the feet mortal and happy and bright for you. Bear this in mind: There's no fussing or mussing with water and foot bathing with SANATITE. It's an instant's work—just DUST it. SANATITE—through its wondrous antiseptic healing qualities—takes the sting out of sore, tired, burning, blistered, aching feet—feet with SANATITE—through its wondrous antiseptic worked. And, Reader, it never harms them—it's sanitary and ANTISEPTIG. If your feet perspire, dust them with SANATITE—it deodorizes—refreshes—but DOES NOT stop perspiration. SANATITE—applied elsewhere on the body, and is used constantly by refined men and women. SANATITE is the greatest healer and pain destroyer. It will win the recommendation of physicians and nurses—it will do likewise with YOU. Always remember this. Reader: If your feet suffer, the REST of your body suffers. Neglected sore feet cause bodily injuries that may ruin your health. Now go to your DRUGGIST and get 2¢ of NATANITE and dust it on your feet at once. THE STATESMAN PETER JOHN HARRIS BISHOP H. B. PARKS SHORTER CHAPEL, A. M. E. CHURCH. Every effort is being made to make the last quarterly meeting of this conference year t Shorter Chapel the best during the pastorate of the Rev. A. M. Ward. The loyal members of Shorter are eager to raise the banner higher and higher. The Rt. Rev. H. B. Parks, D.D., presiding bishop of this Fifth Episcopal District, will grace the occasion with his presence. The morning sermon at 11 o'clock will be delivered by his Reverence. At 3 o'clock the Rev. R. L. Pope, energetic and able pastor of Campbell Chapel, will deliver the communion sermon followed by the Holy Communion conducted by Bishop Parks and visiting ministers. Presiding Elder J. C. C. Owens will occupy the pulpit at 8 o'clock. The entire day promises to be one of great spiritual awakening and re WOMEN IN UPLIFT WORK. Auxiliary to New England Convention Aids Institutions and Individuals. The women's auxiliary to the New England Baptist missionary convention reported receipts for the year of $273.87 at the recent annual meeting in Orange, N. J. The work of the organization under the able leadership of the president, Mrs. E. B. Holland, for the past two years has steadily grown. The auxiliary, besides assisting the general convention in various ways, does a large missionary and educational work. The institutions to which the organization gave financial assistance at the recent meeting were the Virginia Seminary and College in Lynchburg, Va.; the Watchman Industrial school, Providence, R. L.; the Howard Orphanage and Industrial school, Kings Park, N. Y., and two institutions maintained for working girls. The Baptist mission work in Africa was given the sum of $25 and the general convention toward its missionary and educational work $50. Two widows were given $5 each. The members are loyal to the work, and each year an increase is noted in individual achievements. The election of officers for the ensuing year resulted as follows: President, Mrs. E. B. Holland of Providence, R. L.; first vice president, Mrs. Wiley Seay of Brooklyn; second vice president, Mrs. Christina Harris of Stamford, Conn.; recording secretary, Mrs. Margaret L. Shepard of New York; corresponding secretary, Mrs. M. J. Glascoe of Providence; treasurer, Mrs. S. A. Harris of Brooklyn; executive board, Mrs. M. S. Tribbett and Mrs. A. Tribbett of Philadelphia; Mrs. Shepard and Mrs. Mattie V. Ellis of Hartford, Conn.; Mrs. Elvina Washington of Boston. Mrs. Julia O'Hagan of New York and Miss Lucy Washington of Orange.

The officers and leaders as well as the pastor expect the day to eclipse any quarterly meeting for many days past. The splendid audience of last Sunday brought to notice many visitors. A cordial welcome is always extended to those who wish to worship with the members and friends of Shorter Chapel. The pastor is anxious that all conference claims be paid as soon as possible that the work may be closed and an account rendered to the entire church before the meeting of the conference. A very unique and beautiful souvenir bulletin was issued last Sunday containing the dates of all important events up until the time of conference. Do not fail to secure one in order to be posted on the affairs of the closing of the years work. listened to attentively, Mr. Lewis said: "Of the many graduates of Amherst college none are doing more effective service than those engaged in the work of social service. Prominently among them is the Rev. C. H. Parkhurst, who gave to New York city its first awakening along social lines. District Attorney Whitman is also doing a most excellent work along the lines of social service. "Throughout the country there are graduates from this institution who are doing excellent work for the up lift of the human family generally. It is far easier to condemn than to save, and it is through just such agencies as women's clubs that this work is to be accomplished." "Under the social system which we live in the evil surrounding the young people of our race is destined to disappear through the courts of social evolution. It is impossible for the white people of this country to save themselves without saving us. We should not have to appeal to the public for funds to carry on an institution of this kind for colored girls, but there should be homes provided and supported by the state for all of its citizens alike." Mr. Coulter said: "Ten years ago the children of New York were treated as if they were thieves, thugs or drunkards. Conditions are greatly improved now, and the credit belongs to the noble woman who first conceived the idea of properly dealing with children." Mr. Coulter further said that if the children of our cities are not good we as citizens are responsible, because we should surround them with the best influences. "We hear so much of the delinquent boy and girl, but I want to tell you that the number of delinquent parents would astound you, and I hope the day is not far distant when there will be an institution for such parents. "There are fewer delinquent boys and girls among the colored people than any other race. This is remarkable in view of the fact that many of their parents labor under such tremendous opposition and obstacles." 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. Yours truly, A. J. LYLES, Sold by J. J.

In answer to the question why The Statesman, which publishes personal and social news without cost, makes a charge for the publication of the guests at parties, wedding presents and the like, the editor wishes to explain that the paper cannot discriminate between those with short lists and those with long lists without making enemies. Yet it is evident that lists embracing fifty and a hundred names are an imposition upon our good intentions. Therefore a charge is made for publishing lists, ranging from mere nothing for small lists to considerable for large ones.

He has associated himself with Grossman's Progressive Laundry (white), 2150 Arapahoe street, who have been established in the laundry business for the past fourteen years. The plant is equipped with modern, up-to-date machinery, and the facilities are such as to guarantee first class work and prompt service. The prices are as reasonable as is consistent with high grade work. As the Negro has no business of this kind in the city of Denver, and "Nick" has aspired to such a position, being the only colored boy in such employment and having resided in Denver for twenty-three years, it is only fair and just that we should help him along in his endeavors by giving him our patronage. Any assistance which we may give him will be appreciated not only by Nichols but also by his endeavors by giving him our patronage. Any assistance which we may give him will be appreciated not only by Nichols, but also by his employers. Grossman's Progress Laundry, 2150 Arapahoe street.

Ellicott and McHenry Gave Author of Almanac Timely Aid. George Ellicott of Maryland was a contemporary and generous friend of Benjamin Banneker, the inventor and astronomer. Being deeply interested in Banneker's ambition to obtain scientific knowledge, Mr. Ellicott secured for the young scientist several books on astronomy and some astronomical instruments for study and experiment. This was in 1787, and Banneker was then fifty-five years of age. Mr. Ellicott was accidentally prevented from giving Banneker any information as to the use of either books or instruments at the time he lent them. But before he again met him—and the interval was a brief one—Banneker was independent of any instruction and was already absorbed in the contemplation of the new world thus opened to his view. From this time the study of astronomy became the great object of his life, and for a season he almost disappeared from the sight of his neighbors. Very soon after the possession of the books already mentioned had drawn Banneker's attention to astronomy he determined to compile an almanac, that being the most familiar use that occurred to him of the information he had acquired. Of the labor of the work few of those can form an estimate who would at this day commence such a task with all the assistance afforded by accurate tables and well digested rules. Banneker had no such aid, and it is narrated as a well known fact that he commenced and had advanced far in the preparation of the logarithms necessary for his purpose when he was furnished with a set of tables by George Elliott. About this time he began the record of his calculations, which is still in existence. The first almanac which Banneker prepared, fit for publication, was for the year 1792. By this time his requirements had become generally Throw Away Your Old China ```markdown ``` known, and among others who took an interest in him was James McHenry. Mr. McHenry wrote a letter to Goddard & Angell, then the almanac publishers in Baltimore, which was probably the means of procuring the publication of the first almanac. NEW ENGLAND BAPTIST CONVENTION AS ENLARGED Plan Adopted at Recent Annual Meeting Contemplates Greater Work. The New England Baptist missionary convention, under the leadership of its newly elected president, Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, LL, D., long time pastor of the Second Baptist church in Washington, noted educator and voluminous writer, is destined to increase in usefulness. By the adoption of the report of the committee on enlargement at the last annual meeting the convention opened a new chapter in its already proud history of nearly forty years of beneficent achievements. It will be Dr. Johnson's aim during the convention year to keep in close touch with all the auxiliary bodies of the organization by personal visits and correspondence. The adoption of the enlargement plan is also calculated to render it impossible for any outside influence to cause a change in its autonomy, for the reason that it is now in position to take care of all its home and foreign mission interests and educational work. The report of the committee on enlargement was in part as follows: We have carefully canvassed the work of the convention from its inception to the present time and find its growth and expansion. The field is indeed ripe for harvest. God has sent to the convention all the elements necessary to the existence of a greater organization. Our resources are men, money, churches and their auxiliaries, both state and district, in which we find consecrated men and women and a host of promising young people. Our "fathers" built far better than they knew. This convention, which came into existence through the wisdom and untiring efforts of Rev. Drs. T. D. Miller, Rufus L. Perry, William T. Dixon, Robert D. Wynn, H. N. Jeter, L. J. Brown, Ebenezer Bird, William Jackson, Alex Ellis, C. Stumn, J. H. Carter, Jr. Williams, W. A. Johnson, H. T. Williams, J. Harvey Johnson, B. T. Moore and others, has realized its fondest expectations and far outreached its earlier hopes. A new condition, therefore, now confronts us. It is our duty to arise and seize the opportunity of extending the possibilities of this grand old body throughout its jurisdiction to all members alike. In association which shall exist between associations, conventions, state and district organizations shall be determined by mutual agreement between such bodies and the New England Baptist missionary convention. The gathering of such historic data and important statistics of churches, Sunday schools, missionary societies, together with a number of other churches on Sunday schools, teachers, scholars and licentiate ministers, shall be done with the co-operation of all the organizations concerned. Building Aeroplane at Their Home. Afro-Americans continue to enter actively and successfully in most all gainful occupations.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the la- test scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promo- tating 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.

LAWRENCE JONES, Licensed Embalmer THE STATESMAN—S LEAGUE DIVIDES ON TEST VOTE HOW DIVISION CAME ABOUT Failure to Condemn the Now Famous Brownsville Affair and Departure From the Original Policy of the Organization Causes Revolt—Members Walk Out on Waldron's Motion. By W. MONROE TROTTER. Boston.—The fifth annual meeting of the National Independent Political league, recently held in Philadelphia, resulted in a division. One-third of the twenty-one delegates, led by the Rev. J. Milton Waldron, the national organizer, withdrew. The reason for the withdrawal of these men was based on the ground that the charter, principles and policy of the organization had been violated. To remain in the league would be to destroy it and betray the race, so with the understanding that they would hold the name of the league and would continue the organization along its original lines the one-third withdrew. This division came the day after the election of officers had been completed in a harmonious manner with the reelection of most of the former officers. It had to do, therefore, entirely with matters of principle. At the first meeting of the committee on address to the country Delegate W. Monroe Trotter of Boston was asked to make the first draft. When the committee held its final meeting each section passed till the one dealing with President Roosevelt's anti-Negro policy. That dealing with Taft's anti-Negro policy had already been adopted. So strong was the determination to vote down the anti-Roosevelt plank that to prevent a split the race loyal members compromised by insisting on cutting out also the anti-Taft plank and so altering the next plank as to state opposition to those this league opposed in 1905 until they reversed P. REV. J. MILTON WALDION. their positions. This was a direct reference to Roosevelt and Taft. Then the committee adopted the whole. When the resolutions were reported members of the committee opposed the motion to adopt the report of their own committee, and President Clifford took the floor and called for the cutting out of any* reference to the Brownsville discharge, etc. In the uproar Delegate Churchman moved the first six planks as "not mentioning Brownsville." Then Delegate Clifford spied a criticism of Roosevelt and called for "no attack on Roosevelt," which caused the cry of "or Taft either." The men loyal to the league's position were shut off from debate, as Mr. Clifford resumed the chair and adoption went by sections. When section 5 was reached the sentence "The false excuse (for lynching) of assault upon white women, as brazenly asserted in an official message by ex-President Roosevelt, has been exploded by the lynching of colored women," the motion to cut out the words "as brazenly asserted in an official message by ex-President Roosevelt" was carried. Rev. Waldron shouted, "We might as well disband." "This is a disgrace to the race," shouted Delegate E. T. Morris of Massachusetts. This was test vote No. 1 on maintaining the principles of the league. The next test came on the Foraker plank. The motion was made and carried to cut it down to this: "We thank and commend such men as ex-Senators Foraker and Bulkeley, who went to their political deaths." That meant the rejection of these words "at the hands of Theodore 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 we here declare we will not forget their destroyer." Officers were elected as follows: President, Rev. Byron Gunner, Hillburn, N. Y.; national organizer, Rev. J. M. Waldron, 1334 V street, N. W. Washington; corresponding secretary, William Monroe Trotter, 21 Cornhill, Boston; vice president, William D. Johnson; national committeeman, E. T. Morris; treasurer, W. W. Wilkerson, Jamaica Plain, Mass. These officers are to continue the league along the lines of its established policy of independence in voting. DR. S. P. W. DREW'S ACTIVITIES Success of a Washington Pastor Who Works to Uplift Humanity. Washington. At the recent session of the New England Baptist missionary convention held in Orange, N. J., it was decided to hold the thirty-ninth annual meeting of the convention in this city. The convention will be the guest of the Cosmopolitan Baptist church, of which the Rev. Simon P. W. Drew is pastor. The organization is composed of churches and their auxiliaries covering eleven states and fostering missionary work in Haiti and Africa. It also does home mission work and assists many educational institutions. The convention will be in session for five days beginning on Thursday, June 12, 1913. The Rev. Mr. Drew, pastor of the church in which the convention is to be held, is noted for his ability to bring REV. DR. SIMON P. W. DREW. things to pass. He has undertaken many difficult tasks during his ministerial career. He is a man of great ambition and persistence and generally succeeds in whatever he sets out to accomplish. Dr. Drew's record of achievements compares favorably with the work of many ministers of longer experience in pastoral work than he. One only needs to refer to the Cosmopolitan church for a verification of the above statement. Dr. Drew founded this church. It is doing good work and is full of life and Christian zeal for the uplift of the people. As an evangelist Pastor Drew is widely known. He is deeply interested in the material as well as the religious advancement of the race. Dr. and Mrs. Drew have returned from their trip north, where they attended the New England convention and also visited friends in New-York city and vicinity. Dr. Drew preached in a number of the large churches while in New York. NORTH CAROLINA'S NOBLE UPLIFT OF MANKIND. NORTH CAROLINA'S NOBLE UPLIFT OF MANKIND. Effect of the Influence Exerted by the Late Dr. Augustus Shepard. By GEORGE F. KING. Durham, N. C.-Among the many men of the race who accomplished great things in the religious life of our people just after the civil war was the late Rev. Dr. Augustus Shepard. Once out of the atmosphere of slavery he began to intelligently prepare himself for the gospel ministry. Augustus Shepard was a man of fine qualities and never resorted to the emotional side of life in order to attract attention or win favor for himself. Like most men who achieve great good for humanity or any given cause, he had his hardships. He wrought well in his day and goes down in history as a benefactor of his race. His life was an energizing element in every movement for the perfection of ideal manhood and womanhood. He exerted an uplifting influence upon thousands of lives in North Carolina. The Orphan Home For Afro-American Children at Oxford, N. C., and such churches as the White Rock Baptist in this city, educational, civic and religious movements all attest the worth of this great man. Dr. Shepard has not only bequeathed unto his race and to society in general as above named, but has reared a family of young men and women who are continuing to follow in the footsteps of their father. Conspicuous among these is one who has attained international fame and today is the cynosure of the entire religious and educational world. Dr. James E. Shepard stands out prominently as the son of this noble man. With that ennobling influence the elder Shepard helped give impetus to the movement born in the mind of his son which is known throughout the country as the greatest of its kind. He lived long enough to see the National Religious Training School in this city become the leaven in the life of the race and the nation in which his name will always live. The harvest of his hope was beneficent. He never made a false use of the past, and because of that he has an illustrious son in the person of the founder and president of the National Religious Training school. Divinity Degree For Rector Miller. The Rev. George Frazier Miller, rector of St. Augustine's P. E. church in Brooklyn, was given a reception by his parishioners recently in honor of the degree of doctor of divinity which was conferred upon him by Howard university. Dr. Miller is quite well known for his scholarly attainments. Besides his ministerial duties, he devotes considerable time to charitable work. He is also a sociologist of much influence.
