When the "Choo-Choo" Train Leaves for Tolland, Monday, July 14, Get on Board. The Trip will Be a Treat Mr. Big? Ne Detriment to the Race--A Draw Back to Race Enterprises. equipments is only a flimsy pretext for our own experience taught us the last few months that after we had secured the services of a first class printer from Tuskegee Institute, the best to be found in the South, and had him to come here and take charge of the office we found to our surprise in many white offices in the city, where we had business, jobs there from our own men which could have been given to us; offices which employ colored people only to sweep and wash the cuspidors. FILMSY PRETEXT THAT NEGRO BUSINESS MEN CAN'T GIVE THE SERVICE. Institute, in the So come her the office The fact of the thing is too many of our people all over the country have the white mania like Jack Johnson who are giving a death blow to race enterprises. From what appears the law of intermarriage, the separate segregation law seem to have been a God send, for the race would have been deserted and many a Negroe woman would have been without a Negroe husband. Following the same line of reason, if the fool doctor, preacher, college president, lawyer, dentist and all that conceited fool class would be treated by the race as they treat their race namely, until they became first class and well equipped then they would get their just deserts; for there are white doctors, preachers, lawyers, presidents and dentists as far their superiors along particular lines as the white business men in their enterprises are superior to the Negroes in their enterprises. This does not refer to Negroe business men who are suffering and sacrificing to build up Negro enterprises. It is admitted in this article that every man is free to do as he pleases, but it must not be forgotten that there is a moral law that is as binding as the civil law. One word more: we would sound this message in the big Negroe's ears: "Every race must be the architect of its own fortune." By virtue of the fact the so-called big Negro serves the race and gets the support and patronage of the race, they owe it to the Negro enterprises to help support them and the Negro enterprises have a right to demand it of the Big Negro. If they will not hear this, then the race has a right to boycott them, and thus measure to them—miserable conceits—what they have meted out to others. A colored man of Camqridge, Massachusetts, Cohen by name, who was recently appointed by the mayor of that city to revise the city charter, pays taxes on $300, 000 worth of property. The plea for first class 1000 worth FAILS TO GIVE RACE PATRONAGE ON THE ENGLISH PRETEXT SERVICE Your pretext for not patronizing and trading with your own grocers, depositing in your banks, patronizing your own doctors and other business institutions is because they are not well equipped to give the service, you say. You who complain how about your service to your race? Can you give as good service to your race as the white man? That pretext is too flimsy. Here is what the matter is. It is that old slave habit yet remaining in too many of our so-called big Negroes. They have been so used to "gwine up to the big house fer eby ting dey get." "Dey still cling on to ole marster fer perfection an guidance." If you will patronize your own and insure them that they. can get the bulk of your business all our own enterprises will be able to put in the best equipments. The shortest and quickest route to first class equipments and service to your own enterprises will be through your patronage only. If you fail to give your patronage to build up your enterprises when you really have the business to give, you show only your disloyalty to your own and really keep back money that would come to you—fool you; for each boy and girl employed in a Negro enterprise will be enabled to contribute to the big Negro preacher's church, the college president's school, to the big banker's bank, to give the big doctor patronage and to the big lodge man and thus down the line. Thus you see, Mr. Big Negroe, that your first class job office will come sooner by your aid or delayed by your non-patronage all of which has a tendency to dampen, discourage and in many instances kill out entirely the enterprises of the race. The quickest way to have a good business among the race is not to eye it with jealousy and boycott it, but to come up to it and encourage it by moral and financial support. You must therefore, throw aside your "ole fore de war habits" and line up for the uplift of the race. Anything else is disloyalty and race suicide, which is being committed every day by many conceited so called big Negroes right here in Waco and every town in the United States. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1913. About The Colored Men's Association Some inquiries are being made about the time for starting the Colored Men's Department of the Denver Y. M. C. A. Although the Committee of Management has not been doing much talking, they have been busily at work, trying to find the right man for a secretary and perfecting plans for starting work as soon as a proper man can be found. In connection with the secretary, the following letter from Dr. Moorland will be of interest to our readers: I saw Mr. Bilheimer's invention, they were much apect of the new branch a best secretary in the court "return mail." I told them and would not recommend Denver. I still insist it is longer for the right man undue hurry at this period five number one men from this year we have a larger expect to attend.

In harmony of Management has engaged time during the next few weeks, pledges, some of which are no subscribed during the campa Committee of Management payments to Mr. Patrick when checks direct to Mr. S. A. Bor 11th Avenue, City. I saw Mr. Bilheimer and Mr. Sweet at the convention, they were much encouraged over the prospect of the new branch and said they wanted the best secretary in the country and must have him by "return mail." I told them I had not found the man and would not recommend any but a good one for Denver. I still insist it is better to wait a few weeks longer for the right man than to make a mistake by undue hurry at this period. Last year we secured five number one men from our Summer School. This year we have a larger number of good men who expect to attend. I am sure we can safely count on finding the right man at that time. I have several very promising men in mind for Denver and beg of you, time to make further investigation of them. Very kindly assure your men I have their interest at heart and am not asleep on the job. In accordance with the announcement made several times during the campaign conducted in April, no effort will be made to secure a site for a building until the pledges have been fully paid. In harmony with this plan, the Committee of Management has engaged Bert Patrick to devote his time during the next few weeks to collecting the outstanding pledges, some of which are now past due. The friends who subscribed during the campaign will confer a favor on the Committee of Management by being ready to make their payments to Mr. Patrick when he calls, or else by sending checks direct to Mr. S. A. Bondurant, whose address is 6 E. 11th Avenue, City. ARTIST WINS PRAISE The people who have been interested in the career of Cloyd L. Boykin, the young Colored artist of this city who has been studying at the Museum of Fine Arts School, will enjoy the exhibition of his paintings and studies that has been opened in the gallery of the Twentieth Century Club on Joy Street. He came into notice a few years ago through a portrait of Wendell Phillips which he painted from a cheap woodcut print, but which was strongly characteristic of the great orator and was painted in a vigorous way, especially when the difficulties of painting a post-mortem portrait were considered. Since then he has taken up the serious study of painting and for two years he has been grinding at the fundamentals which every trained artist must know before he can do any very important work in painting. He has applied himself to the task with enthusiasm, as this exhibition proves, for the work is unusually comprehensive in its scope and shows a broad, sensitive mind in both portraits and landscapes. There is one life-size portrait here of Deacon Edward Kendall of Cambridge, which, MY DEAR DR. DEFRANTZ: (Boston Globe, June 2, 1913.) Very truly yours. J. E.

There is also a portrait of a West Indian girl which is well done and characteristic, and all of the sketches show a splendid grasp of the fundamental in both drawing and color.

A shoe store and gents' furnishing store, conducted by Negroes, have recently been established in Washington, D. C., at the corner of Eleventh and U Streets. Both establishments are up-to-date as to stock and fixtures. Dr. J. E. Mooreland, International Secretary for the Y. M. C. A., who has been campaigning for funds to erect an Hundred Thousand Dollar Y. M. C. A. building for Negroes at Cincinnati, raised $15,000 among the Negroes of that city in a week. Lewis Brothers' Construction Co., is the title of a firm recently organized by Negroes at Montgomery, Ala., to construct residences and buildings of any description. E. H. Lewis is president; J. D. Lewis, treasurer, and Thomas Williams, secretary. William Hearns, a Negro at Ivy City D. C., has patented a device which solves the problem of a century—the problem of how to insert taps and remove plugs from the water mains without cutting off the water supply. A company has been organized by Negroes to build a plant and begin manufacturing it. Henry Allen Boyd, of Nashville, Tenn., is preparing a business directory containing the Negro publications in this country, with the names of the manager or publisher, date of establishment, and the banks, bankers and concerns, controlled by Negroes doing banking business. It is expected that the directory will be ready for distribution very shortly. Seventy-four of the leading Negro business men of Illinois recently met at Springfield, that State, and organized a State Negro Business League. The meeting which was very enthusiastic, took steps looking to the chartering of a special train on which to carry the Illinois Negro Business League members to the annual meeting of the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia, August 20, 21 and 22. Negroes in Cincinnati, O., have purchased a tract of thirty-four acres of land in Hamilton county, that State, on which they propose to erect cottages, a school for State Historian & Nat ural History Society The Denver Star FIVE CENTS A COPY. ng News g the Race. boys, removed from the temptations of the city, and reserve a portion for a farm on which to raise poultry and garden truck. It is a company affair, the stock in which was sold at two dollars per share. W. P. Dabney was the moving factor in organizing the company. COLORED WOMAN Few people realize the amount of worry, care and trouble attached to the raising of chickens. Many are contented with only a few about the yard, and others have no time whatever to devote to them, while there are many who care nothing at all for poultry other than to eat. So it is that we give space and praise to Mrs. A. C. Williamson of 2953 Stout St., this city, who has devoted much time to the raising of thoroughbred stock, and today she ranks among the most successful poultry culturists of these parts. Mrs. Williamson attends her own stock, which amounts to about 400 chickens in all, and thoroughly understands the business. Among the stock is a pen of Blue-Fluff Brahmas, consisting of one cock and five hens, valued at $60.00, the only birds of the kind in the West. From this pen she receives $5.00 per setting. The birds are large and handsome, white with blue neck and tail, the results of sixty years' work by I. R. Felch of Natick, Mass. She has also a pen of the Buschman-Pierce strain of R. I. R., some Spangled Hamburg, Buff-Cochin, White Orpington and many others. Mrs. Williamson has won many prizes in poultry shows, and daily she is visited by poultry fanciers from the surrounding country, and they express their satisfaction by leaving their money for settings or for stock. The poultry business is rapidly coming to the front, and the growers are in some cases becoming rich. It is gratifying to know that a woman of this race, through hard work and devotion has reached the highest point along with those of the opposite race. It pays to raise the best. Those contemplating the raising of chickens, will get great encouragement if they go out and see Mrs. Williamson's stock. She is pleasant and accommodating and takes a delight in telling you about that which she has spent time and money to learn. A new $4,000 delicatessen store for colored people began business on May 25th in St. Louis. It is the business of a well known caterer in that city. --- FAST, FREQUENT AND EXCELLENT DAILY SERVICE DENVER, COLORADO SPRINGS AND PUEBLO Colorado & Southern Railway Electric Lighted Sleeping and Dining Cars—Well-Ballasted Roadbed—Block Signals—Stone and Concrete Bridges—and a service appreciated by the experienced traveler All trains leave and arrive Union Passenger Stations, Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo LEAVE DENVER DAILY 3:50, 8:00, 8:30 and 9:00 a. m. and 12:15, 3:30 and 7:45 P.M.

Pictures and Vaudeville Church News NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. The stereopticon service last Sunday evening drew a large congregation. The parable of "The Good Shepherd" was rendered in ten magnificent views, while Sankey's "Ninety and Nine" was also illustrated while being sung by Sister Lillian Jones. The service was very touching. Tomorrow night the "Prodigal Son" will be illustrated by ten views. This is, perhaps, the best known of the parables of Jesus and by use of the stereopticon can be made even more powerful in its application to life. "Throw out the Life Line" will be pictured in five views. No one should miss this service. A meeting of the members of Zion is called to take final action in securing title to its new home on Ogden St., following which possession will be given by the other congregation. Moving day is now very close at hand. Every adult member is expected to be present Wednesday night.

He gives promise of rendering splendid service to the church. Mrs. Sarah Caldwell, a mother in Israel, was buried Monday afternoon. She was a ward of the church and was given a nice burial by the church, assisted by Zion Baptist church. Miss Cummings, Superintendent of the Deaconess Settlement of the Methodist Episcopal church, is deserving of special mention for the very great interest she took in caring for Mother Caldwell and her paralyzed daughter, Mrs. Tolliver. Mrs. Tolliver, who is sorely afflicted, remains to be looked after by the church and friends. Many members in Campbell find special pleasure in ministering unto the afflicted. God bless them. the pastor and several members united with Shorter in her rally last Sunday and enjoyed a fine service and a wonderful gospel sermon from that splendid pulpit Dr. David E. Over. "I've got my fare under the carpet," said an old lady last week referring to the Union excursion which goes to Tolland over the Moffat road Monday, July 14th. "I mean to see those thirty tunnels and stand on the top of the earth before I go to heaven," said she with a cheerful smile. This is the only excursion over this scenic road this season and the fare is reduced so that everybody may go. Only $1.75, with half fare for children. Adv.

Little Rock, Ark.—All questions re- lating to the education of the Afro American youth will be discussed at the tenth annual session of the Nati- onal Association of Colored Teach- ers to be held in this city for five days, beginning July 30. Some of the most noted educators of the country will be in attendance. It promises to be the largest attended and the best session ever held in the history of the organization. The teachers of Little Rock have begun preparation to entertain those who are engaged in shaping the lives and minds of the youth of the country. Many social events are being outlined, including a side trip to the famous Hot Springs not far from this city. All of the state teachers' associations thus far this year have indorsed the movement and will send large delegations. President M. W. Dogan of Wiley university, Marshall, Tex., and Corresponding Secretary J. R. E. Lee of Tuskegee Institute. Alabama, are busy preparing the program outlined by the executive committee, which will touch all the live questions with which the teachers have to deal. Papers will be read and addresses delivered by teachers from all parts of the country, and others will take part in the discussions following the papers and addresses. In addition to the papers and discussions and addresses music will be made a feature, and some of the best musical talent of the race will take part in entertaining the guests and visitors. On this occasion the doors of Little Rock will be thrown open to the lovers of education of the country. Located in the city are the Arkansas Baptist college, the Philander Smith college and the Shorter college, the latter being in North Little Rock.

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

The committee in charge of arrangements for entertaining the delegates and visitors is hard at work, and the indications are that the attendance at the coming session will be quite large. Dr. C. V. Roman, editor of the National Medical Journal, is creating much favorable sentiment for the meeting through the Journal. New Industrial Training School. Pennsylvania has granted a charter for the incorporation of the Isaac Randall Industrial Training School of Afro-Americans. The institution will be located in Salisbury township, Lancaster county.

POPULAR WITH THE MASSES Inspiring Career of the Executive Secretary of Howe Institute, Who Has Achieved Success by Peristence and Self Reliance—Labors In Many Fields For Race Advancement. Memphis, Tenn. — There are many strong and silent forces at work in all parts of the country helping the race in its upward tread. Men and women who are well trained are filling important positions of trust. Miss Lula O. Hobson of Howe institute, in this city, is counted in the number among the most progressive. She is a native of Nashville, Tenn., where she received her early training, commencing with the primary school and graduating from the Pearl High school in 1901 and the fall of the same year entered the commercial department of Walden university, where she graduated in May, 1902, with honors. During her entire school life Miss Hobson was not absent from school one day and was only late one time. It was in the fall of 1902 that she accepted a position with Professor T. O. Fuller, president of Howe institute, 1 MISS LULA O. EBOSON. as private secretary and stenographer, having charge of the commercial department of the school. Realizing this was her opportunity to "make good," she went into it with determination. Success has crowned her labors. In her position Miss Hobson looks after the large correspondence of President Fuller, has charge of the mall coming into the institution, distributing the mall for the boys and girls and teachers; looks after the teaching forces, making assignments of substitutes in the absence of a teacher, and is generally useful around the school. Being a member of the First Baptist church, she feels that she is indebted to her church and race; hence it is not surprising to note that she is organist for the Sunday school, a member of the choir of the church and its editor of the Record, which is the weekly church bulletin. She is also teacher of a Bible class in the Sunday school and is a worker in any department of the church or Sunday school where work is needed. Having obtained a business knowledge and being both willing and ready to work, she is kept constantly at it. Her business knowledge gives her the important place of purchasing all the supplies for the boarding department of the school, and then she is assistant editor of the Signal, a weekly paper published in Memphis. Miss Hobson is in charge of the mailing of the paper and also acts as editor. It would seem almost impossible for one to keep so busy and fill so many places, but this is what Miss Hobson is doing and does it with a smile. She is president of the Industrial club and has been for five years past. It is made up of the young people of the church, who declare that they are so well pleased with their president that they want to elect her for life. Miss Hobson is also secretary of the State B. Y. P. U. convention. Each year at the close of the convention her minutes are ready for the press. Her life and talents are dedicated to God and the race. Miss Hobson is trained in music and ranks with the best soloists and is often called on to sing on important occasions in the city and state. She is serving as secretary to the Howe choral class. Such a life shows the possibilities of the girls of the race who will prepare and who are willing to work. Since graduating she has purchased some real estate from which she receives rent monthly. Dr. Brown Twenty-two Years a Pastor The Berean Baptist church in Brooklyn held a largely attended celebration in honor of the twenty-second anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. L. Joseph Brown. D. D., on Thursday evening, June 10. During his administration of the affairs of the church Dr. Brown has erected a new church edifice and made many improvements in the work. The program included representation from several churches and organizations in the city. Thirty-ninth Annual Session Held In Washington. Reports From Many States Show Wisdom of President W. Bishop Johnson's Plan of Enlargement—Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia Become Members. By N. BARNETT DODSON. Washington. — With an address by former United States' Senator Henry W. Blair, a visit to President Wilson at the White House and a reception to the delegates by the Cosmopolitan Baptist church, the New England Baptist missionary convention closed its thirty-ninth annual meeting here on Monday evening, June 16. The convention was in session for five days at the Cosmopolitan Baptist church, pastored by the Rev. Dr. Simon P. W. Drew. Addresses of welcome following the formal opening of the convention were delivered by the Rev. Dr. I. N. Ross, representing the Eyangelical Ministers' alliance; Rev. Dr. Alexander Wilbanks, for the Mount Bethel Baptist association; Miss Nannle Helen Burroughs, president of the National Training School For Women and Girls, and a speech by United States Senator Moses E. Clapp of Minnesota. The response was made by Rev. Dr. John C. Love of Montclair, N. J. At the session of the convention held in Orange, N. J., in June, 1912, the convention adopted the plans for enlarging its territory, which were presented by Dr. W. Bishop Johnson. The reports from the various churches and the new organizations which united with the convention at this session showed the wisdom of such a movement. Under the new plans the work for education, home and foreign missions takes on new life. Among the larger organizations cooperating with the New England convention on the enlargement plan are PETER B. W. BISHOP JOHNSON, L. L. D. the Mount Bethel Baptist association, which is composed of churches and their auxiliaries in the District of Columbia and Maryland, extending into Virginia; the Virginia Baptist state convention and the woman's convention of Maryland, co-operating through the woman's convention of the New England Baptist convention. The new movement recently started for the purpose of establishing a denominational college in the north to meet the growing demands of the convention and its auxiliaries for better and more convenient educational facilities for higher learning within the bounds of the convention was indorsed. Methods for raising funds for the erection of buildings and for the general support of such a school have been devised, and the convention has pledged the sum of $10,000 toward the movement. Notable among the features of the program were the special sermons and address. The annual sermon by the Rev. Dr. W. P. Hayes, pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist church, New York; the educational sermon by Dr. T. J. Henderson of New Jersey; the doctrinal sermon by the Rev. E. W. Johnson, D. D., of Philadelphia; the missionary sermon by the Rev. D. J. Deskins; educational greetings by President R. C. Woods of the Virginia seminary and college, Lynchburg, Va.; Dr. W. A. Credit, president of the Downingtown (Pa.) Industrial school; President Page Beverly of the Alpha Industrial institute at Cranford, N. J., and the convention's editorial address to the country by the Rev. W. B. Reed and committee reflected high intellectual ability and scholarship. The newly elected officers are: President, Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, LL. D., Washington; vice president, Rev. W. P. Lawrence, D. D., New Jersey; recording secretary, Rev. T. J. King, D. D., New York; corresponding secretary, Dr. William A. Harrod, Connecticut; treasurer, Dr. R. D. Wynn, New Jersey; field agent, Dr. Granville Hunt, Mount Vernon, N. Y. The next annual meeting will be held in Bridgeport, Conn.

The election is over, the commissioners have taken their seats, the Supreme court has declared that commission form of government is legal and after all of that has been done, what about the Negro voter who participated in the election by voting for some of the successful candidates? As far as we can learn not three appointments have been made. We are not going to be satisfied with janitor jobs or messengerships when among us there are capable young boys and girls who can fill other positions better and more creditably. So our advice to the young Negroes is to put these men on record, use your friends to get the most capable, deserving and representative Negro man or woman to share in the benefits as well as shoulder the burdens. Don't take NO for an answer, bring all kinds of influence and pressure and force them to face the issue squarely. This is not the only election and some day some one of the commissioners may be recalled. Go to the front and see the main man, THE COMMISSIONER HIMSELF It remains with the Negro what he gets and if he is then satisfied. Out of all the jobs and positions in the city, and nothing really definite and representative landed yet—think of it! Discriminating criticism is good for any race, but the kind that comes without knowledge is a nuisance. Criticism which follows a study for information is worth while; indeed, it is the life blood of progress, but the kind that comes from envy or jealousy or ill-will is a disgrace to any community. WOMEN'S STATE FEDERATION. Last week in Cheyenne, Wyo., the State Federation of all the clubs of Colorado and Jurisdiction met in an open assembly to report on the work, conditions and progress made in the last two years. From what we can learn there were some very good papers, suggestions and art and musical features shown and the convention was a success. We want to congratulate them because of their continued existence and activity. No set of men, outside of the secret orders, have any kind of an organization doing any continued work, not even a state political body. In that the women are far ahead of the men, but after all is that saying very much? What did you accomplish by you paying out hundreds of dollars in car fare, linens, thread, muslin, etc., time and labor? Was your trip worth while? Did you get recompensed for all the efforts exerted, in other words, did the meeting pay a dividend in knowledge, experience and social progress? If not, then ladies we trust you will make the next pay. We want to commend Mrs. E. B. Butler on the high plane with which she left the federated body and also congratulate Mrs. Baker of Cheyenne, Wyo., on being the unanimous choice of the ladies. Public Safety and the Commissioner's Statement Black and Tan Saloons Must "I propose to put an end to these mixed drinking places, and any place that caters to both whites and blacks will be shut up."—Alexander Nisbet in an alleged statement in the Times. "Commissioner Nisbet declared that the coming convention had nothing to do with his order. "These 'black and tan' joints,"he said, "have been sinks in this city and have stood in the way of a genuine clean-up. Denver must awaken to the fact that her first duty toward acting as mistress for the coming conventions is to present a clean front!

I do not want to see the city degraded in the eyes of our visitors, but, even if Denver had no convention in sight, it is time for these plague spots of immorality to go. That Denver should be rid of her diver's block and while there is no dispute and we rather agree with him and glorify in his effort, if all the dives go black and white likewise, that Denver's moral atmosphere should be clarified, there is no question and yet it should be done in an orderly way and not with an attempt, on the part of the officials, to get cheap notoriety at the expense of the negro. We are here not to defend the dives or immoral persons, yet even they have rights and liberties which must be respected under our government. Is the Commissioner of Public Safety using his office to further and spread his personal race hate, prejudice, venom, or caprices? Or are his friends' prejudices creeping in upon him and have so influenced his action? We hope neither is the case. We have always believed him to be fair because of his seemingly fair treatment of the negro and think yet he is honest but merely mistaken. Commissioner Nisbet, doubtless, knows that any order promulgated and based upon a discrimination of any kind, either in race hate, color, sex or previous conditions and not upon thrift, character, industry or morality, no matter what are the apparent temporary flattering advantages, the principal or foundation is bad and hence it follows, the practice is bad and likewise the results. The race or person against whom such a slam is directed suffer and it is they and they alone who suffer. Make your lines as tight and rigid as you desire on cearacter, moral or intelligence and apply it, alike and we will join you. But for you to arbitrarily promulgate in the columns of the daily papers, whose influence extends all over the city, county, state and country, only advertises the slams and besides inviting other slams, encourages others "to get one better." Such action and advertisement is not necessary for enforcement of the laws, neither to close a dive. So it is in this way, by the advertisement route, that the negro or individual pays the price and constantly and continuously pays it dearly. It is odd that now such an order is made, when the present commission --- er was sheriff once before, these same conditions obtained and even worse than these places (dives) ran openly!! If a dive is a disorderly place, close it up and we suggest ALL be closed and be made to remain closed. It is ardently declared in the article that the association of different races will not be permitted, especially in saloons. What right or authority have you to go in a business man's place, dictate to and order him to sell to Japs, Chinamen, Blacks or whites and no others, is hard for us to see and understand. The licence that permits a saloon man to sell his wet articles is recognized under the law the same as the merchant, coal dealer or grocer and you might have just as well attempted to regulate their sales as to try to limit and restrict his sales to various persons of the human race. No such right comes to you in law or through your office. Why call a public place where different races assemble and frequent,"Black and Tan" any more than call the post office, city hall or city park. Mr. commissioner we repeat, because possibly in your anxiety, "to clean up the city" you have honestly made a mistake by beginning and ending on the negroes' and unintentionally put all kinds of bands and restrictions upon their liberties and pursuits of happiness. Injustice begets injustice which will justify itself afterwards. Therefore, we ask you, as the new commissioner of Public safety (for all) to go slow as you will find you cannot solve the race question by discriminations which only tend to aggravate and not solve any situation, even prejudices may be appeased temporarily.

At the home of her parents on Williams street Wednesday evening, Miss Audra Linzy became the wife of Archie Alexander of Des Moines, Ia. The house was beautifully decorated with roses, smilax and palms, which blended well with the gorgeous costumes worn by the 200 guests. The wedding party descended the steps promptly at 8 o'clock. Morgan Jackson, the popular violinist, accompanied by Miss Jesse Andrews, played the wedding march. During the ceremony, which was performed by Rev Ward, Miss Jennie Hicks sang "O, Promise Me" in a manner that touched the hearts of all who heard. Misses Adah Miller, Marguerite Jackson, Grace Morton and Gerada Clay, wearing pink chiffon over messaline satin, carrying pink and white torches, were bridesmales. Miss Leana Linzy, the bride's sister, was maid of honor. Miss Frances Russ and Rose Hooper were ribbon girls. Little Erneatine and Josephine McClain were flower girls and Miss Queenabelle Webb was ring-bearer. Mr. John Moss was best man, while Messrs. Pittman of Kansas City, Malcolm Auatin, Walter and William Linzy were groomsmens. The bride entered on her father's arm, and was exquisitely gowned in a white messaline satin over effect of shadow lace studded with rhinestones and pearls and a bridal vell of princess net edged with lace. The only jewelry worn was a La Vallere of diamonds and pearls, the gift of the groom. The pillow upon which the couple knelt was of white satin with the initial "A," the gift of Mrs. C. A. Franklin. The presents were many and beautiful. The happy pair left Friday to spend their honeymoon in Colorado Springs and Kansas City, also camping in Southern Iowa. STRANGERS! Corp.

Va., show evidences of new life and steady progress. White-washed buildings and fences, freshly painted classrooms with window shades and simple white curtains, exhibits of fresh vegetables, canning and baking, specimens of well made garments and, above all, neat, orderly and industrious children and parents—these are some of the signs of progress which impressed the members of an educational party of thirty that recently visited the schools of this county in Virginia. Interesting and helpful addresses were made by Jackson Davis, state supervisor of elementary schools; Superintendent Willis, of Hampton; Major Robert R. Moton, commandant of Hampton Institute; W. T. B. Williams, field agent of Hampton institute, and Mrs. Harris Barrett of Hampton. At each school the teacher in charge gave a report of her work, showing what the people of the community have been doing to help improve the schoolrooms, school yards and community life. The parents and children have been organized in clubs. They have held health meetings and have given concerts and entertainments.

Third Summer Pilgrimage of Famous Institution's Musical Organization Includes Concert Engagements In Seventy-four Cities and Towns In Fourteen States—Aim of Director Smith. Guthrie, Okla. —The appearance in this city on Wednesday evening, June 25, of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute band was the occasion of much enthusiasm among the music loving public. The schedule of this band, under the management of the well known J. D. Stevenson, covers seventy-four cities and towns in fourteen states. The stop here was the twenty-first in the present series. Under the direction of Captain N. Clark Smith, formerly bandmaster of the Eighth regimental Illinois state militia, the student band plays largely melodies and folk songs of the colored people interpreted and arranged for band music. In handling this music Captain Smith has something more in view than the mere applause of the populace. He wishes rather in the main to teach the beauty and dignity of Negro music. Lest through the symphonies and variations of the band the audience should miss the real interpretation of the melodies Captain Smith has thrown on the canvas the story of "Steal Away," that the audience may glance up at the picture of series of pictures and read there the story of the struggles of the old folks of fifty years ago seeking to steal away to the valley to pray. Thus glancing at the picture the audience can then interpret the band music. But this is for the older people. Captain Smith has still another story he wishes to tell. It is for the modern Negro to measure up to this present day civilization. Here are a farmer and his wife, dull, slow, quiet, labor- 5 ING side by side in the fields. They toll on there, make money, build a decent cottage and rear a family. The children finish in the graded school. The mother urges the "old man" to send them away to the north. In the north the dazzle and dash of the life at its height are too much for them. They are delighted, yea, intoxicated. They never return to the quiet little cottage on the farm; hence the story of three generations is woven into this music and interpreted to the audience by a band, an orchestra and a glee club. Not altogether unfit is the student band for the mission which the former Illinois bandmaster sets for himself. Many of these students are raw recruits fresh from the farms, villages and homes where life is daily enacted as Captain Smith seeks to stage it. Though the task of drilling them into musicians is a hard one they nevertheless bring to their instruments an understanding of and sympathy with the life of their music. They are not musicians by trade and never will be; they are fifty of the 1,500 students who come yearly to the school for trades of one kind or another and who pick up music incidentally. The present tour is the third one of the kind the band has taken and by far the most ambitious. Those previous were satisfied with twenty, thirty or forty stops. In each case the manager, J. D. Stevenson, has had repeated demands to extend his time and journey. On this trip he is endeavoring to meet all the demands of cities along the route. Mosaic Templars to Hold Convention. The state convention of the Mosaic Templars, with headquarters in Little Rock, Ark., will be held in Pine Bluff, Ark., for four days beginning on Tuesday morning, Aug. 26. The order was founded not many years ago by the Hon. John E. Bush, until recently receiver of public moneys for the government in Little Rock. The organization has had a mervelous growth in membership and is rated as well to do financially. The Mosaic guards, the musical club of the organization, will be on hand at the convention to welcome the delegates and visitors and furnish special music for the occasion. American Church Institute to Have Auxiliary In Philadelphia Bishop Rhinelander recently held a meeting of clergymen in Philadelphia for the purpose of organizing a Philadelphia auxiliary to the American church institute, which fosters educational work among Afro-Americans. The meeting was harmonious, and the bishop appointed a committee to arrange for and organise the proposed auxiliary. The American Church Institute For Colored People has under its supervision the following named educational institutions: The Bishop Payne Divinity school, Petersburg, Va.; St. Augustine's school, Raleigh, N. C.; the St. Paul Normal and Industrial school, Lawrenceville, Va.; St. Athanasius school, Brunswick, Ga.; St. Mark's school, Birmingham, Ala., and the Vicksburg Industrial school, Vicksburg Miss. 10:10 FOR GARDENING you want good tools if you expect to raise garden stuff that's respectable.

Each Must Show Fitness Before Deciding Upon Profession. Hampton institute is founded on the knowledge that the common task and daily round are a means of grace and a source of culture and intellectual development. Is a building needed? Masons and bricklayers must mix sand and cement; carpenters must make doors and window frames; painters, tinsmiths, plumbers, steamfitters, all must take their turns before the building is completed. The lessons of the students stand in cement, brick and plaster, in woodwork, tin and iron. Theories learned in classroom these trademen apply at the building, and the faets gained at the building they carry to the classroom. The facts are considered as valuable as theories. Things are ranked with books. Each student has his work in the life of this great family, and every student must carry a vocation away with him. This is the system of Hampton. The boy or young-man who comes to the school with scanty knowledge of the three R's and geography, with scantier funds, if possessed of credentials and character, is given a chance. He must win his spurs before he can choose his life's work or begin training as farmer, teacher or tradesman. Few boys enter with sufficient knowledge or funds to begin their work for a life vocation. Yet no boy is turned away from Hampton because of his poverty. A year on the large farm, a year in the office or on the grounds of Hampton for the boys or a year in laundry and kilchits for the girls, with careful coaching at night in reading, composition, arithmetic and geography, gains the funds and academic standards necessary to begin their special training as tradesmen, teachers or farmers. The bugles blow at 5:30 in the morning. In the day that follows eleven hours of work and study are crowded into the lives of blacksmiths and carpenters, five days of the week. The day which is hailed as holiday or half holiday in other schools, at Hampton is called "workday." Upon this day all boys and girls are given work outside their shops or fixed positions in kitchen or laundry to help them further in earning their way through the school. At Hampton it is a punishment to deprive one of work, for there all useful work is a means of support and advance. WOMEN'S FEDERATION OF CLUBS TO MEET IN BUFFALO Annual Convention of Empire State Body to Be Held July 4. Buffalo.—Throughout the state of New York in cities or towns where there is a woman's club the members are on the alert daily with preparations for the forthcoming annual meeting of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs. The meeting will last two days and will be preceded by a meeting of the executive committee on Friday, July 4. Mrs. C. A. Bell, chairman of the committee, is urging every member to be present. The departments of the federation's work are social settlement, art and embroidery, arts and craft, mothers' meetings, literary, department for the suppression of lynching, juvenile and community uplift work. Large delegations are expected from New York city. Brooklyn, Binghamton, Albany, Rochester and Syracuse. The federation is a member of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs and will send representatives to the annual convention of the latter, which meets in Cambridge, Mass., in August. The Empire State federation has had a wonderful growth since its organization about five years ago. It has a competent corps of officers and heads of the various departments. The president is Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, a woman of wide experience, in educational work and conditions as they exist among our people. Mrs. Talbert was born in Oberlin, O., of North Carolina parents. She is a descendant on her maternal side of Richard Nichols, who compelled Peter Stuuvesant to surrender New Amsterdam and who was for a time governor of New York state. Mrs. Talbert graduated at the age of sixteen from the Oberlin high school and with the assistance of former President James H. Fairchild was able to enter Oberlin college. While a student at Oberlin she was treasurer of Aeolian, one of the two college societies. In 1886 she became a teacher in Bethel university, Little Rock, Ark., and in 1887 she was elected assistant principal of the high school in Little Rock. Mrs. Talbert is the only colored woman who has ever held the position of assistant principal in this school. Since her marriage to William H. Talbert she has resided in this city. Verdict For Widow of Waverly Carter The action brought by Mrs. Mary B. Carter, widow of the late Waverly Carter, against one Charles B. Blitt, Jr. charged with being responsible for her husband's death, was decided by a jury in part 5 of the supreme court in New York city by awarding Mrs. Carter a verdict for $3,000 on Tuesday, June 17. Blitt was charged first with the murder of Waverly Carter, but was acquitted. Mrs. Carter afterward entered a civil action against Blitt, with the result as above stated. Mrs. Carter was represented at the latter trial by Attorney L. David H. Smith. Charles B. Blitt, Jr. said to have been press agent for former Police Lieutenant Becker, who is now under death sentence in the prison at Sing Sing, N. Y., for the murder of Herman Rosenthal in the fall of 1912. The Great Western Missionary Baptist Association, which convened in this city at St. John's Baptist church last week, was one of the most interesting and profitable in the history of the organization. Moderator Harding of Pueblo presided over the convention with much executive ability. There were thirty-two delegates in attendance, among them Revs. Over, Reynolds, Price, Denver; Rev. Henry, Trinidad; Rev. Anderson, Rocky Ford; Rev. Russell, Grand Junction and Glenwood; Rev. Wallace, Eaton and Boulder; Rev. Brannon, Canon City; Rev. Davis, Pueblo; Rev. Jackson, Denver; Rev. Tillman, Colorado Springs; Mr. L. H. Watson, Denver; H. Wilson, Pueblo; Mesdames Shannon, Lawis, Greer, Wilson, Miss Addison, Pueblo; Mesdames Over, Williams, Halloway, Morrison, Denver; Miss Rucker, Boulder, Mt. Hope, Denver and Boulder Mission were the new churches admitted into the association. Rev. Harding was re-elected moderator. The next meeting place will be at Bethlehem Baptist church, Denver. The mebers of St. John's rendered excellent service in the way of providing for the visitors. Rev. A. M. Ward, P. E., was a visitor in the city Friday evening en route to Cripple Creek. Mrs. J. Young, former organizer of the Federation of Colored Woman's Clubs of Colorado and jurisdiction, spent a day or two in the Springs last week, the guest of Mrs. E. Rice of North El Paso street. Misses Mayme and Hattle Boyer are here from Coaldale to spend the summer. Mrs. Adam Jones returned from Hannibal, Mo., Friday, where she was called a few days ago on account of the death of her mother. Prof. Moore of Marshall, Texas, arrived in the city Friday for a few weeks' stay. The many friends he made during his visit here last summer are pleased to welcome him back. Mrs. Maggie Carter has gone to Coaldale for a stay or several weeks. Mrs. C. E. Fleming left the city Wednesday night for Springfield, Mass., to visit her mother, Mrs. Jas. Thornton. She will be away about two months. Mrs. L. Johnson and daughter, Miss Azalia, of Denver, sister and niece, respectively of Mr. J. Crump of East Moreno avenue, are here to spend the summer. Master Valaures Spratlin, a rising young musician of Denver, after spending several days in this city as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Fleming, returned to his home Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Fox have purchased the property just east of their present home and are changing their residence thereto. Miss Sadie Duncan is in charge of the National Preachers' Home during the absence of Rev. and Mrs. Braxton in the East. Quite a responsibility for one of her years, yet her womanliness and efficiency makes her equal to the task. The Montuckians are extending a cordial invitation to all who desire to jion in their picnic on July 4th at Garden of the Gods. Rev. Crews of the National Preachers' Home underwent a serious operation at St. Francis' hospital last week and is recovering from it rapidly. Mrs. Rose Moore entertained a few friends at "tea" Sunday evening in compliment to Mrs. C. E. Fleming, who left for the East Wednesday evening. Miss Constance Watt was the young hastess at a delightful dinner party to a few girl friends Wednesday evening at her home, 4 Kiowa Place. The occasion was her fourteenth birthday. Mr. and Mrs. Zachariah Stanback of 552 East Costilla street announce the engagement of their daughter, Nettle Lavinia, to Prof. I. L. Dumas of Prairie Institute, Prairie, Ala. The marriage will take place early in October in this city. Prof. Dumas is teacher of agriculture in Prairie Institute and superintendent of the institute farm, comprising nearly a thousand acres of the finest lands in the black soil belt. There are few men in the South today who are so well prepared as an agriculturist as Prof. Dumas. The son of one of the most prosperous farmers and largest land owners in that section, young Dumas is a farmer to the manner born. Catching the spirit of the times, Mr. Dumas, after graduating at Prairie Institute with honors, repaired to Knoxville College, where he graduated four years later. He taught in literary schools a while, but feeling that farming was the most inviting field for the ambitious Southerner, entered the agricultural department of Tuskegee Institute and graduated with distinction, his signal abilities arresting the attention of Prof. Carver and Dr. Washington. Miss Nettie Lavinia Stanback is a most charming and accomplished young woman. She is talented as a musician and poetess, writing very creditable verse. For four years she has taught under her brother-in-law, Principal T. M. Elliott of Prairie Institute, Prairie, Ala., giving herself unselfishly to the work of uplifting the freedmen in the South. Their many friends throughout the South and West will be greatly interested in their coming nuptials, and wish for them a long and happy life Concord Literary Circle Closes. The April meeting of the Concord Literary circle in Brooklyn marked the closing of that organization until October. The sessions of the literary were well attended during the past winter, and the programs of music, readings, lectures and addresses by prominent persons have been very helpful to the members and the general public. Walter K. Taylor, president of the circle, is a young man of splendid qualities, well educated and competent to lead. Mr. Taylor received much encouragement in his work for the organization from the Rev Dr W. M.

I have been a sufferer from childhood of Pinhead Eczema. I have been to some of the best scalp specialists, and also some of the best physicians in Denver trying to get something to cure my scalp, and stop my hair from breaking off, but they all failed to do me any good. Mrs. Simpson had then completed her study of the scalp. I then began to take special scalp treatments from Mrs. Simpson, using her Vegetable Salve and Temple Ointment.

The lodges were accompanied to and from the church by Hiram Commandery No. 20. The ladies of the various courts and chapters were very much in evidence, turning out in beautiful white dresses. A very able sermon was delivered by Father Brown, vicar of the church, in which he touched on many things that could only be appreciated by Masons. The turnout was one of the largest in many years.
