Afro-Americans Conduct Dining Car on Southern Pacific.
SERVICE PLEASES COMPANY
Messrs. Paul and Watts Selected For Important Position on Special Carde Luxe From New Orleans to Houston-Efficient Service May Lead to Change of Policy.
New Orleans.-Instances are constantly occurring in which Afro-Americans when given a fair chance are proving their ability to manage business affairs of large consequence. For the accommodation of delegates from a distance to the recent meeting of the national Baptist convention two big railroad companies showed their willingness to give colored men a chance to conduct special dining cars and sleepers.
On the Frisco and the Southern Pacific special trains with sleeping and dining car accommodations were provided. On the first special train de luxe over the Southern Pacific en route from New Orleans to Houston, Tex., where the convention was held. Mr. C. H. Paul was in charge of the dining car as conductor. Jesse Young as chef and

three assistant cooks and waiters in sufficient numbers to handle the great throng of passengers.
It was something new to see colored men in full charge of a special tourist car, but the novelty proved a boon to the service, and when throng after throng of hungry passengers filed into the beautiful dining room and partook of well cooked meals served by polite and neatly clad waiters comment on the efficiency of Conductor Paul and his men was the order of the day among the passengers.
The comments of the delegates and the other passengers so impressed the general traveling passenger agent of the road that he took the first opportunity to congratulate Mr. Paul upon the business and general satisfactory way in which he handled his car and added that such efficiency upon the part of Mr. Paul and his waiters
---
might eventually lead to their being permanently employed for such service.
The second special train out from New Orleans en route to Houston was also finely equipped and was in charge of G. Watts as conductor. Mr. Watts' force of capable assistants worked perhaps harder to make a good record, because it was a new experience for them, and, further, they knew that much of their future success in this line depended upon the satisfaction which they gave to the passengers on this trial trip.
Mr. Watts has had considerable experience as a waiter during his eight years of constant employment by the Southern Pacific. He stands high in the estimation of the company and can be depended upon to do his full duty in the capacity whatsoever in which he is placed.
C. H. Paul has been in the employ of the company for nine years. Always honest, reliable and obliging, he has won a warm spot in the management of the affairs of travel and preparation for big events with the company. To the thousands of porters and dining car waiters on the various railroads throughout the south this event must give encouragement and hope. In proportion as the sentiment for fair play gains headway and Afro-Americans who are competent to fill the various positions in business and other lines of active endeavor are found white men of broad training and business acumen will give them a chance, whether in the north or in the south.
SOME FORGOTTEN HEROES.
Tribute to Brave Colored Soldiers Who Led Fight at Red Bank,
Cato Greene, Caesar Power, Cuff Greene, Gay Watson, Henry Taylor, Ichabod Northrup, Philo Philips, Primus Rhodes, Prince Green, Prince Jenks, Prince Vaughn, Renebo Roberts, Richard Cozzens, Richard Rhodes, Sampson Hazzard, Scipio Brown, Thomas Brown and York Champlain.
The details of the story of this engagement will not be found in the school histories of today. There is a reason. The heroes were colored men. The nephew of George Washington, Captain Humphreys, acting under the inspiration of his immortal uncle, commanded one of these black battalions, of whom the historian of that day wrote:
"Among the traits which distinguished black regiments was devotion to their officers. In the attack made upon the American lines near Croton river, Westchester county, N. Y., on the 13th of May, 1781, Colonel Christopher Greene, the commander of the regiment, was cut down and mortally wounded, but the saber of the enemy only reached him through the bodies of his faithful guard of blacks, who hovered over him, fighting with the utmost darping to protect him until the last man of them was killed." No monumental plies distinguish their "dreamless beds." Not an touch on the page of history has been appropriated to their memory! What a commentary on American' fair play!
Powell on How to Better Conditions. Speaking at a large public meeting in New York recently on "Some Rights Not Denied Afro-Americans," the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, gifted preacher and champion of human rights, named the following: The right to get an education, the right to save money and buy property, the right to be a Christian optimist and the right to pray. Dr. Powell's address gave the people a new view of the situation and showed them how to better their condition.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOV. 9. 1912,
Noted Educator Tells Why He Favors Restricted Ballot.
THE SOUTH'S EATAL MISTAKE.
Founder and Head of the Great Tuskegee Institute Advocates Evan Handed Justice In Method of Voting White and Colored Citizens In the South. Abhors Lynching.
"No influence could ever make me desire to go back to the conditions of reconstruction days to secure the ballot for the Negro," writes Dr. Booker T. Washington in the November Century. "That was an order of things that was bad for the Negro and bad for the white man.
"In most southern states it is absolutely necessary that some restriction be placed upon the use of the ballot. The actual methods by which this restriction was brought about have been widely advertised, and there is no necessity for my discussing them here.
"At the time these measures were passed I urged that, whatever law went upon the statute book in regard to the use of the ballot, it should apply with absolute impartiality to both races. This policy I advocate again in justice to both white man and Negro. "Let me illustrate what I mean. In a certain county of Virginia, where the county board had charge of registering those who were to be voters, a colored man who had long been a resident of the county, a quiet, unassuming man.
[Name]
DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
went before the board to register. He was refused on the ground that he was not intelligent enough to vote.
"Before this colored man left the room a white man came in who was so intoxicated that he could scarcely tell where he lived. This white man was registered and by a board of intelligent white men who had taken an oath to deal justly in the administration of the law.
"Will any one say that there is wisdom or statesmanship in such a policy as that? In my opinion it is a fatal mistake to teach the young black man and the young white man that the dominance of the white race in the south rests upon any other basis than absolute justice to the weaker man.
"I have spoken plainly regarding the south because I love the south as I love no other part of our country, and I want to see her white people equal to any white people on the globe in material wealth, in education and in intelligence. I am certain, however, that none of these things can be secured and permanently maintained except they are founded on justice.
"In most parts of the United States the colored people feel that they suffer more than others as the result of the lynching habit. When he was governor of Alabama I heard Governor Jelks say in a public speech that he knew of five cases during his administration of

innocent colored people having been lynched.
"If that many innocent people were known to the governor to have been lynched it is safe to say that there were other innocent persons lynched whom the governor did not know about. What is true of Alabama in this respect is true of other states. In short, it is safe to say that a large proportion of the colored people lynched are innocent."
Clubwomen to Hear Mrs. Washington The most important event in women's club circles in Pittsburgh for the third week in October was a mass meeting at the Trinity Congregational church, at which Mrs. Booker T. Washington, president of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, was the principal speaker. Clubwomen from the adjoining cities and towns were present to co-operate with the women of Pittsburgh in making the meeting a great success.
NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
Now that the campaign—political—is over we can surely afford to give more of our thought to the campaign—religious. Our special effort, closing the year, is calculated to reach, especially the church membership and to awaken in it a more enthusiastic activity in the things of Christ. The two past Sundays gave promise to that cooperation on the part of the people which can only mean SUCCESS.
This is the third Sunday in the campaign and the third sermon in the series is to be delivered. Subject for morning, "SIN'S BROOD;" the evening subject, "THE IMPOTENT MAN." The interest is growing. Do not miss these subjects.
Last Sunday there was an intensity of interest in the services which is an evidence that Christ is manifesting Himself to the uplift of the worshipers. Brother Russell sang, "A Sinner Like Me," with such pathos as to baptize the congregation in tears. As a result, Miss Carrie Findley came forward for baptism, Bro. Samuel Owens by experience and also Bro. John Little by letter.
For Sunday morning service a treat is in store for us. J. W. Russell will sing, "Life Is Like a Mountain Railroad," and Mrs. Lillian Jones will sing "A Clean Heart." The choir will also render special music.
The mothers of Zion have organized themselves into a Mothers' Union, which is to meet the second and fourth Thursdays in the afternoon. Mrs. Over was elected president and Mrs. Lizzie Jameson, secretary. The next meeting is Thursday, Nov. 14th, at which time a committee will submit rules governing the work of the organization.
It is hoped that every married woman in the congregation will be present at this coming meeting of the Mothers' Union. The following programme, which will be rich in interest and information, will be rendered: Mrs. Lillie Moore will read a paper, subject, "Pitfalls for Young Girls, Twenty Years' Observation and Experience in Denver Social Circles." A ladies' quartette will render "Rescue the Perishing" and the pastor will give a short address.
Notwithstanding it was election night the Men's Bible Class met with twenty-five present. The lesson was taken from the Exodus 2. The Birth and Training of Moses formed the basis of the lesson. This great life is divided into three periods, the second of which will occupy the attention of the class at the next week's meeting. Subject, "The Wilderness Training School." No man can afford to miss these character studies, Moses, Joshun, Samuel, Saul and David will be studied during the season. The prayer meeting is becoming a joy. A real, live hour of consecration where God's people come face to face with their Master. This is the vital and only real need that God may translate Himself into our lives, touching, cleansing and quickening us for service. This is the hope and purpose of a life. May God send more men and women into this meeting.
Two and three rooms furnished apartments, with hot and cold water in each kitchen. Also furnished rooms single. Rates very reasonable. Electric lights and modern throughout. 2352-2358 Ogden street, corner 24th avenue. Phone 6707.

SHORTER CHAPEL.
The order of service at Shorter Sunday will be as follows:
9:00 a. m.—Sunday School. Lesson: "World's Temperance Sunday," Hosea, Chap. 7.
11:00 a. m.—Sermon, "Every Man's Life a Plan of God," by the pastor.

7:30 p. m.—Sermon, "The Third Commandment, or the Sin of Profanity," by the pastor.
Christian Baptism will be administered at this service.
The quarterly meetings last Sabath were impressive, inspirational and largely attended. Well-prepared and forcefully delivered sermons were preached by the presiding elder, Rev. Bray, and the pastor, which both pointed out the truth and drove it home to the hearts of the hearers. Two persons, Miss Zetta Hodge and Mrs. Eliza Miller sought membership with Shorter.
The quarterly reports rendered on Monday evening showed the several departments of the church to be in a healthful condition and that real progress is being made. Brother S. B. F. Lowe having been granted exhorter's license, delivered his trial exhortation Wednesday evening at the prayer service. His effort attracted an increased audience to our mid-week service.
We are very grateful to Rev. Wallace and Rev. Bray and their congregations for their unstinted support given us in our Sunday service.
Rev. Ward's first visit to Shorter in his new capacity was profitable and satisfying, and it is freely predicted that he will be no less successful and popular here as presiding elder than he was as pastor.
The newly-elected board of trustees of Shorter enjoys the confidence of the church and will doubtless have the hearty co-operation of the membership. The following persons comprise the board: Westly Lyons, Wm O'Bryant, E. C. Snadon, G. H. Eu bank, Capt. Thos. Campbell, D. Let cher, U. G. Brown, Jesse Nelson and I. E. Walden.

The Hazell Chapter of the Westminster Guild, in their meeting Tuesday night, made plans for serving Thanksgiving dinner for 25 cents. A limited number of the aged and decrepit will be served free of charge. On the 12th of December the Guild will present to the public the play, "What Became of Jennie Brice?" Home Mission Week, Nov. 17 to 24, will be observed at this church by all of its departments. The last class for membership with this church for the year 1912 will be opened Wednesday night, Nov. 20th, at 9:15. A number of formal applications has been already filed with the pastor. All persons desirous of depositing their membership either by letter or confession are requested to do so at once. The only way to convince one of the substantial work that is being done in this church is to get in the inside by becoming a full-fledged member.
The pastor and officers desire to thank the friends and visitors who worshipped with us Sunday to hear the two special sermons. You are invited to hear tomorrow's double-header.

SOCIAL WORKERS BEGIN DUTIES
Sent Out by National League on Urban Conditions.
FIRST TO ENTER THE FIELD.
Organization Composed of Members of Both Races Seeks to Improve Industrial Opportunities Among Afro-Americans—Miss E. A. Walls and J. H. Hubert Well Qualified For Work. New York.-Mr. James H. Hubert and Miss Ellis A. Walls, M. A., have been during the past year pursuing studies at the New York School of Philanthropy and Columbia university and have gained practical experience in social work in New York under the direction of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes.
Mr. Hubert at the completion of his course of training was called to take charge of the social betterment activities at Gay Head, Mass., a community of mixed Indians and Negroes. He has supervision of the amusements and recreational and educational activities of the community. Mr. Hubert is a graduate of Atlanta Baptist college, Atlanta, Ga. Miss Walls has become one of the staff of the National Urban league and is on some special work in Baltimore in co-operation with a social betterment committee which is being organized in that city. At the completion of her work in Baltimore she will

go to Nashville, Tenn., to develop work in connection with the Nashville league and the social science department of Fisk university.
Miss Walls is a graduate of Fisk university and at the end of her year's work in New York received a master of arts degree from Columbia university. Both of these social workers for a year have been on fellowships furnished by the national league and are the first trained workers sent out according to a plan which the league is developing. During the present year the league has three other fellows in training.
The National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes is an organization composed of white and colored people throughout the country, who are banded together for the betterment of conditions among colored people in cities. The object of the organization is stated in its constitution as follows: To bring about co-operation and coordination among existing agencies and organizations for improving the industrial, social and spiritual conditions of Negroes and to develop other agencies and organizations where necessary; to secure and train Negro social workers; to make studies of the industrial, economic, social and spiritual condition among Negroes; to promote encourage, assist and engage in any and all kinds of work for improving the industrial, economic, social and spiritual conditions among Negroes.
"Our churches and religious journals are discussing and looking for a worldwide revival. If we are to have this revival it will not be started by the laymen's missionary movement, nor the men and religion forward movement, nor by the church with its ponderous religious machinery, but by the Christian home," says the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell. "The home is the wellspring of the race. From it must flow the streams that shall revive our religious activities and cause the desert places to rejoice and blossom as a rose."
Bishop Scott Wants Light on Africa. In discussing the subject, "Opportunities In Africa For Colored Americans," Bishop Isaiah B. Scott asks three leading questions, namely: Why did God make Africa so large? Why so rich? And why did he give it to the Negro race? We would like to hear from some learned and spiritually minded theologian on these questions. Speak up, brethren; the bishop wants to know.
CONDITIONS IN THE SOUTH.
Optimistic View of the Situation by Dr. W. D. Weatherford.
Dr. W. D. Weatherford knows men and conditions in the south. He is a southerner through and through and is spending his life in and for the south. In all of his writing and speaking he has been discriminating, sane and fearless. Through patient study, wide observation and sympathetic touch with men of all classes and races in the southland he has worked out in theory and in practice a plan of action which appeals to men who are vitally interested in the advancement of humanity.
About two years ago Dr. Weatherford wrote "Negro Life in the South" for southern white college men who wanted to have before them the facts of modern Negro life. The little volume has been used in two years by over 10,000 southern college men who belong to Y. M. C. A. study groups. The call came for a new book on race relationships, and Dr. Weatherford again showed his mastery of a difficult problem by giving the public "Present Forces In Negro Progress," which is dedicated to that group of sympathetic men in the north whose united interest in the Negro race is a prophecy of a better day."
In the preface of "Present Forces" the author expresses his appreciation of the help that he has received from students and professors in white and colored schools and from farm demonstrators and educators. Thus he shows that he is a man who can co-operate successfully with other men. He asserts very emphatically. "The supreme need of the hour is that men shall face facts rather than spin theories."
The various chapters discuss traits of Negro character, race leadership and the growth of race pride. Negro population and race movement. The relation of the white churches to the Negro, and the work of the Y. M. C. A. With rare keenness of mind and frankness of expression. Dr. Weatherford has analyzed the race problem as it affects the Negro himself and his white neighbor, both of whom are economically and socially interdependent, and, therefore, have a common interest which should not be lost sight of either through ignorance or wilful neglect.
The solvent of the race problem must include co-operation in the broadest sense, race pride and race consciousness. Christian leadership, reduction of the infant and adult death rate, revival of interest in rural life, conquering the enemies of southern farm life—the tenant system, the one crop system, improvement of the public rural schools, the local churches, the average small farm and the adoption of a sound public health policy.
BUSINESS LEAGUE ECHOES.
Macedonian Cry Heard From Afro-
Americans In Providence, R. I.
We have read with great satisfaction
the report of the doings of the
National Negro Business League con-
vention held recently in Chicago, says
the Providence (R. I.) Advance. From
such reports we must come to the posi-
tive conclusion that the Negro, not only
in business but in all lines, is coming
rapidly toward the front rank.
While Rhode Island sent no delegates, Boston did. Along this line
there seems to be something the ma-
ter with the Negroes in this state, and
especially in this city. We appear to
be leaguesless and leaderless, and our
condition has remained the same for
the past several years.
THE POLITICAL SITUATION IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
The Charleston Messenger Makes Suggestions and Offers Advice.
There seems to be a spirit on the part of the southern white man to drive the Negro out and drive him back into politics again, says the Charleston (S. C.) Messenger. Nothing proves this more conclusively than the consent of Governor Woodrow Wilson to have Rev. Richard Carroll, a Negro Baptist preacher, the Booker T. Washington of South Carolina, take the stump in behalf of a Democratic candidate for president. It has been and is a question now as to whether the Negro should enter politics in that way.
It seems to us that the Negroes should all stand still, wait and at the proper time come in and cast their votes for the best man in a solid plantan, be he Democrat or Republican. There should be no buying in or selling out. Men in every walk of life should be allowed to cast their votes at their own dictation without any intimidation whatever. There should never be an attempt by either party to disfranchise the other party black or white. This is the spirit that has upset the country. God has drawn his sword against the race which desires to humiliate another race and rise at its expense. The intelligent white and black men should ever be reasonable citizens, the one respecting the rights of the other as Americans.
There is quite a number for and against Rev. Carroll becoming a public speaker for the Democratic party in South Carolina. Politics in this state has got down to an indefinite point, and politicians are guessing as much as nonpoliticians as to who will be the next president.

HALF CENTURY
OF FREEDOM
Mayer Blankenburg Informed of
Proposed Exposition.
WRIGHT HEADS DELEGATION
| By WHITTIER H. WRIGHT.
| Philadelphia. — Mayor Blankenburg
twas recently visited by a delegation of
colored men who requested him to take
‘a special interest in the celebration of
the fiftieth anniversary of the freedom
‘of the colored people. with a view to
having the exposition held in this city
pext year. ‘The mayor heard the dele-
gation very interestedly and promised
to co-operate with the colored citizens
in making the exposition a success.
Among those in the delegation were
\gishop Benjamin 'T. Tanner, Bishop
‘Levi J. Coppin, Bishop Evans Tyree
bf the African Methodist Epis-opal
‘church. Bishop J. 8. Caldwell and Bish-
vp G. L. Blackwell of the A. M. E.

ture; Hon. Richard A. Cooper. member
of council; Richard R. Wright, Jr.. edi-
tor of the Christian Recorder: Walter
P. Hall, leading colored merchant. and
others.
‘The principa! speech was made by
'R. R. Wright. Jr. Ph. D.. author of
the “History of the Negro In Pennsyl-
vania," who is the director of exhibits
of the proposed exposition. Dr. Wright
eald that Jan. 1, 1913, will mark the
fiftieth anniversary of the famous
emancipation proclamation issued by
‘Abraham Lincoln for the freedom of
the slaves. ‘The colored population of
Pennsylvania will celebrate this jubtlee
year with au exposition showing the
progress of the race during the fifty
years of Its freedom
‘There has been remarkable progress
of the Negro from a physical point of
view. showing his ability to survive.
According to the United States census
of 1860, there were 4.441.830 Negroes
in the country, Fifty years later, in
‘1910. the census gave the number of
Negroes as 9.828.294. an increase of
ver 100 per cent. Fifty years ago they
hwere located chiefly in the south, ‘Po-
day they are scattered over all the
states
Fifty years ago these people were
fargely illiterate. Not more than ten
4n a hundred could at that time read
and write. their illiteracy being esti:
mated in 1860 at 90 per cent. Slowly
this has been cut down until ir 1910
Jt was reported by the census at 30.5
‘per cent. The remarkable progress of
the Negro in cutting down Illiteracy is
realized by comparison with foreign
countries, According to the latest re-
‘port of the bureau of education, the 1]
Mteracy of Austria was 26.2 per cent.
‘of Hungary 40 per cent, of Italy 48
per cent. og Spain 48.7 per cent and
‘of Russia 70 per cent.
‘This progress in education has been
made chiefly by the growth of the
jpublic school system. Fifty years ago
ace no Negroes attended public
schools. ‘There are today more than
2,000,000 colored children in the pub
‘ie schools of the country. and these
are taught by some 25,000 coiored
heachers, who have developed withir
the Inst fifty years. The colored people
have developed during these years
bout 150 private institutions, manned
jand controlled by colored people.
‘They have contributed during these
fifty years to these schools something
over $50,000,000, besides the amount
which they have contributed in taxes.
The best information available gives
the purt of taxes contributed to edu:
cation by Negroes in the south as
something like $55,000,000. Fifty years
ago there were hardly a dozen Negro
jeollexe graduates. Daring these fits
years more than 5,000 Negro young
{nien and women have graduated fron
leollezes and have won honors in Har
\vard. Yale, Columbin, Pennsylvania,
Oberlin and other well known Ameri
Jenin universities
In 1900 there were 1,186 manufactur
Jers, &2 bankers and brokers, 9.098 re

In Streets of New York.
When some years azo workmen were
digging the foundation for A. T. Stew-
art's great retail dry goods store in
New York 1» large quantity of human
bones were thrown up. On inquiry it
was found that they were the bones of
colored American soldiers who fell in
the battle of Long Island in 1776 and
of such as died of wounds then re-
ceived.
‘The white soldiers of the Revolution
who fought in the war received not
only a pension at the end of the war,
but were given a patent for 160 acres
of land on which to settle and rear a
family.
But the black men who fought in
that war, the wars of 1812, 1860 and
1898 if they got pensions, as many of
them did. got no land grants. Such 4s

“Emancipation.” by Cusely Hayford,
barrister at law and author of “Gold
Const Native Institutions.” is an in
tensely interesting book of 215 pages.
divided into twenty chapters. which
sweep the whole gamut of the problem
dealing with racial contact. ‘The book
is especially attractive from the stand-
point. of the native African when
brought under the sway of western
civitization. ‘There are also sugges:
tions which bear directly upon condi
tions iv the United States.
‘The author evidently in his contem-
plation had the interest of colored
Aiericans at heart as well as that of
his own native fellow citizens, for the
yolume is dedicated to the “Sons of
Bthiopia” the wide world over.
Mr. Hayford weaves romance, poet-
ry, bistory, modern Christianity, the
evolution of race persecution and re-
cent striving Into a plea for fidelity
to racial deals which will bring about
the freedom of which he prophesies
when Ethiopia unbound will be @ real-

‘Attorney Hayford ix a member of the
Inner Temple. barrister-atlaw, and of
the Gold Coast bar. His academic ex-
cellence as well ns his statesman-like
skill is revealed in “Gold Coast Native
Institutions,” which was published sev-

in “Emancipation” indicate the mas-

Dr. W. D. Weatherford, student sec
retary of the international comunittce
of Young Men's Christian Associations
for the south, has paid discriminating
tributes to well known race lenders in
his recent book, “Present Forces In
Negro Progress,” published by the As
sociation Press of New York,
Dr, Weatherford represents the grow
Ing class of southern white men in
public life that appreciate the good
work of such race leaders as Robert
R. Moton, commandant of Hampton
institute; Dr. Charles T. Walker of Au
gusta, Ga.; Bishop George W. Clinton
of Charlotte, N. ©., and ‘Thomas ©.
Walker, the powerful lawyer-farmer of
Gloucester, Va.
Major Moton’s Leadership at Hampton.
“It has been my good fortune to
come to know Major Moton quite well
in the visits I have made to Hampton.”
says Dr, Weatherford. “He is one of
the few men in America who can trace
their ancestry on both sides in unbro
ken line across the seas. I have heard
more than one southern man suy that
Major Moton was the sanest and
strongest representative of the Negro
race that they had ever met
“Others have suid, too, that he is the
hest speaker. white or black. thar they
have ever heard. aud yet he does not
claim to be a speaker at all. He has
a clear head, a noble beart and a
manly bearing which at once convinces
you that be bas a message worth while
and is not afraid to give It,
“Major Moton holds a most delicate
position at Hampton. In the college
community there are pure Negroes, mu
Inttoes. Indians, northern white people,
southern white people. all working for
the same great cause, the elevation of
the race. It is no ensy matter to har-
monize all these types. and yet so rare
Is his tact and so true Is his judement
that each group gives him enthusias
tic support. Washington bas said of
him, ‘It has been through contagt with
men like Major Moton that I bave re
ceived a kind of education no books
conld Impart. It would be worth a
trip to Hampton just te know Major
Moton. If more of our southern white
people could see him, so ealn, so unos
fentatious, so sinpresnming 2nd yet so
efficient und therouzh, they would new
er say again that the Negro race could
hot produce x pure blood leader.”
Taft Pays Tribute to Dr. C. T. Walker.

“I could not better prove his sanity
and his right to lendership than to
quote what Washington says in his
motto, ‘I have determined never to be
‘guilty of ingratitude, never to desert
a friend and never to strike back at

speak both to northern and southern

able to learn, he lives up to his motto.”
Bishop G. W. Clinton as an Organizer.
| Although Bishop Clinton is by pro-
fession a minister and has been all bis
life in the service of the church, “he fs,"
as Dr. Weatherford has said, “most az-
gressive in bis manner and most sol-
diezly in bis bearing. * * * Bishop
Clinton has been of great assistance to
us not only in our work at Tuskegee.
but in the larger work we have been
trying to do in arousing interest
throughout the country in the Negro.
He organized In Carolina in 1910 what
I think was the most successful cam-
paign I have ever yet been able to
make in any of the sonthern states.”

All kinds of masked costumes were represented, and at 2 o'clock the ghost did appear. That made it more enjoyable. At 10 o'clock was time for masks off and two-thirds of the girls were masked as boys. One girl was masked as a scarecrow.

PORTO RICO'S NEW WONDER.
From far away Porto Rico comes reports of a wonderful new discovery that is believed will vastly benefit the people. Ramon T. Marchan of Barcelona, writes "Dr. King's New Discovery is doing splendid work here. I cured me about five times of terrible coughs and colds, also my brother of a severe cold in his chest and more than 20 others, who used it on my advice. We hope this great medicine will yet be sold in every drug store in Porto Rico." For throat and lung troubles it has no equal. A trial will convince you of its merit. 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all druggists.

Two social events at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Holmes entertained social Denver this week as it seldom is. The first was the twenty fifth wedding anniversary of this estimable couple, which was celebrated on Sunday evening. Early in the evening the friends began to fill their home at Twenty-second and Curtis street and until morning it was a scene of festivity. Being the silver anniversary, they were remembered with many gifts of that precious metal. One gift, that of the BonVi vants, of which he is a member, was a silver service set of exquisite design. Numerous other valuable gifts were given. The close of the evenin's enjoyment was a spread that is still the talk of those who remained to partake. All in all, Mr. and Mrs. Holmes raised the limit several degrees in the style and lavishness of their entertaining.
The second event at their home was a card party by Dr. and Mrs. McClain on Wednesday night, at which players were present for fourteen tables. It was formal, so that the parors were thronged with handsomely gowned couples dressed in the height of fashion. The play continued until midnight when lunch was served. The winners were Mrs. Coleman of Colorado Springs and Felix Woods. Miss Lola Ross was consoled with the booby.

VICTORY OR FAILURE, WHAT SHALL IT BE?
Dear members and friends, your loyalty and unstinted support has made it possible for us to write victory upon the financial banner in every rally for the past four years. On October 12, 1908, I was called to the pastorate of Bethlehem Baptist church, then worshipping in a small building on Walnut street between 29th and 30th streets. For three years and nine months we worshipped in a store building on Larimer street. During that time you assisted in paying for two lots, corner 28th and Lawrence streets, that cost $1,800, which we were able to turn in as part payment for $2,200 on the beautiful edifice and parsonage that we are now occupying at East 32nd avenue and Lafayette street. The first installment on the balance of the $4,800 will soon be due, and if our financial business capacities of the past appeals to your good judgment that we are competent to manage the above named indebtedness in the future in a businesslike manner, I beg that you assist in making the first effort on November 17 of $500 a glorious success. Many of our friends had promised material and labor for the building that we were planning to erect, and as we can save money in paying for the building that we are now occupying, will you pay the same amounts in cash on the day of our rally? The pastors of the city with their congregations will be present and assist in the effort. Rev. R. L. Pope, pastor of Shorter's A. M. E. church, will preach for us at 3:30 p. m. REV. A. E. REYNOLDS,

"I regard the Tuskegee Institute as the most considerable educational invention of modern times," writes Professor W. L. Thomas, professor of sociology in the University of Chicago. Industry is the spirit of Tuskegee industry and discipline are made a habit. The choice of some 40 trades are offered young men and young women. Tuskegee graduates are earning from $50 to $80 and $100 per month as academic teachers, farm managers, steam and electrical engineers, tailors, teachers of domestic science, nurses—in fact, the demand for men and women trained in all the trades at Tuskegee is far beyond the supply.
The academic work is vital and real; it is close to realities. The school seeks soundness and efficiency; the academic and industrial work are closely correlated.
The spiritual work of the school is strong. It ranks fifth in the United States in number of students studying the Bible. It is guided by a Chaplain and a Secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and through a Bible Training School.
Morning drills for boys; special gymnastic training for girls; swimming pools for boys and girls; attractive grounds; more than 100 buildings—large, comfortable, airy, electric lighted; 186 teachers.

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.

NOTICE OF FOOTBALL.
It has become a national game in Denver on Thanksgiving day. The game of football, and to have it played by the colored teams of the state, is something worth while, so people, keep off the date, Thanksgiving day, and be in line for the big game to be played between Denver Y. M. A. C. and the Colorado Springs Y. M. A. C., at Union park, for the championship of the state.
IN MEMORIAM.
Inloving memory of our darling,
Callie Rosetta Polk. Died, Nov. 4
1911.
How we miss you, Callie dear,
Almighty God alone can tell.
Gone from us one hopeless year,
Forevermore with Him to dwell.
Our hearts still bleed for you, Our
precious,
Wicked tho' it all may be,
And ye we know that thou await us
Beyond the vale, across Death's Sea.
Some day we'll lay aside our sorrow
And journey home, when life has
fled;;;
Oh, that meeting, when on the morrow
You'll be with Papa, Mamma, Lucile, Harry and Fred.

The ladies of the Widow Club entertained the gentlemen royally on Hallowe'en night at the beautiful home of Widow Waldon, on Washington street. The rooms were gay with a profusion of yellow, black and white and pumpkin suggestive of Hallowe'en. Clever tricks and games were played until a late hour, when delicious refreshments were served. Much credit is due Widow M. Phillipps.
The Hallowe'en social, given under the auspices of the Willing Workers of Zion, at the home of the president, Mrs. M. B. White, 2420 Emerson, was a success. The house was beautifully decorated in styles of owls, pumpkins and witches. The witch fortune teller was very amusing. Mrs. H. R. Brown, lately a member of Zion, is especially to be complimented for the care and pains taken with the girls in the "ghost drill," which was said to be the best ever given in Denver.

FLAGGED TRAIN WITH SHIRT.
Tearing his shirt from his back an Ohio man flagged a train and saved it from a wreck, but H. T. Alston, Raleigh, N. C., once prevented a wreck with Electric Bitters. "I was in a terrible plight when I began to use and the congregation of Scott's and them," he writes; "my stomach, head, back and kidneys were all badly affected and my liver was in bad condition, but four bottles of Electric Bitters made me feel like a new man." A trial will convince you o f their matchless merit for any stomach, liver or kidney trouble. Price 50 cents at all druggists.
CONSUMPTION
I was a lunger, suffering for a long time. A benefited friend endorsed Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Tea. I took several packages of the tea and have not been troubled with my lungs since. That was several years ago, not being troubled with colds as I was theretofore. I most gladly recommend the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea to all lung sufferers.
