When the "Choo-Choo" Train Leaves for Tolland, Monday, July 14, Get on Board.

FOLLOWS BLACK AND TAN ORDER As the blue and the gray on July 4th, at Gettysburg Pa., were shaking hands and 'crossing the bloody chasm,' in Denver, the Paris Theatre Co., composed of the following Directors, W.

Browne Secretary, 3056 Ash St., J. R. Elliot 75 Lincoln, and J. R. Willouby, were busily engaged in patriotically painting and frantically displaying the sign in gilded letters over the box office in public view of all its patrons, pedestrians and tramway passengers on Curtis Sr. "COLORED TRADE NOT WANTED." Suppose following the black and tan policy, and the theatre action, that the steam and tramway cars, water company, telephone and telegraph companies, the gas and electric co., the Post office and every public utility puts up the innocent insult, stinging with venom and race hate, what then my colored brother? The very fact that it calls particular attention to the Negro and then draws the line stamps it as Unchristian and unAmerican. It is an arrogant assumption on the part of the theatre, because all negroes do not desire nor do they go to this theatre. We speak for these injured innocent and non active but useful burden bearing people of color, who are averse to permit such signs making them social outcasts, to be displayed without protest and action. Such signs smack of class distinction and set a precedent based on color. In the second place it takes away the negroe's right to choose and sets a precedent for taking away other rights. No race, element, or people can afford to have any public utility, city or governmental official, declare them entirely different from the rest of the people, for this, then becomes the basis of every concievable sort of discrimination. When, O Christian America, do you mean to cease abusing our patience and fidelity? How long is that madness of yours still to mock honest, honorable and respectful men and women and thus disturb their peace and happiness? When is there to be an end to that unbridled audacity of every little cheap business man flaunting preju- The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 dice and swaggering it about as he does? Have we not public officials whose sworn duty is to guard the citizen's welfare? This action closely follows the black and tan order. The sin of publishing to the world our faulty side and advertising things which make us a reproach to our neighbors and a derision to them who are around about us must be laid at the door of some of your public officials and newspapers. Every quarrel, every disgraceful sensation, every outrageous episode, every mortifying resolution or social broil, is proclaimed to the world with the most extravagant embellishments surely, if there is anything in what is said about the power of suggestion, these officials and newspapers are doing an infinite harm. They are sowing bad thoughts in the minds of the people with both hands and bad thoughts are weavers and moulders of bad conduct. This public theatre a place where the public can and do retire to have a change of thoughts, scenes, action and conduct, exists because of a licence granted to it by the city officials, our representatives of ALL the public. It has no alternative under our laws but to serve all the public exactly, fairly and with out any discrimination. When it chooses to swerve from its duty laid down by the law it becomes an unlawful place. It begins on the outside with insulting, humiliating and bulldozing the downtrodden negro, by its big sign "no colored trade wanted" in big gilded letters and with this same venomous and hateful spirit they will later display mob pictures and disgraceful caricatures etc., which will appeal to, arouse, intensify the heated passions of the white people against the honest respectable and tax paying and decent church going negro who don't frequent those places. Why should THEY be chagrined and made to feel discipable because of their race and color by this big display of race prejudice of Denver men? Of what meat do they feed on, that they have waxed so high and important in Denver's community and social life? Rather with their public opportunity, they could easily, without extra effort, alleviate and not add to and pile on our already burdensome load, by preaching from its public canvas, the world's quiet happiness, its beauties and granduer, its solid satisfactions, the sum of its prosperities; still more its noble ideals, its divine aspirations, its lofty dreams, its mighty ventures of faith and hope, which enter so deeply and vitally into the very fibre DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 12, 1913.

All right thinking people should be and are generally interested in their own community. Its prosperity should be their joy; its welfare their delight. To be indifferent either to its growth or its deterioration, to be careless as to whether it goes up or down, is not only unnatural but it is criminal. Communities make people, only in a less degree than people make communities. To be profoundly concerned about the well being of our own immediate social and civil life is to make a large contribution to the upbuilding and happiness of the individual. The community which we are shaping and to which we are constantly giving time and character, is steadily and unconsciously shaping us. The spirit breathed into the city and into the community, returns upon us and stamps upon us its own quality. There is no escaping the law of reaction. With what measure we mete it is measured unto us again.

The mystery of strange lights in the heavens which for several weeks puzzled people living in London and vicinity has been solved. The unusual sight was neither falling stars nor meteors, but the result of an invention of Fred N. Campbell, a Negro lad who has won a reputation as a mechanical genius. The Blade's correspondent became acquainted with young Campbell while riding on an interurban railroad near here and took such interest in him that he discovered what the boy was doing. The correspondent is the only person who was able to learn the story of Campbell's invention, an airship destroyer. The boy says his tests have proved that the invention can fire a projectile that will reach an into the blood circulation of society a prejudice, caste and stigma; if we constantly knock, criticise and find fault with any race or people, seven days in each week and keep things forever stirred up racially, and among alien citizens; and if this is our temper we shall find it coming back to us out of the environment we have helped to make, pouring itself into the currents of our own life and transforming us into its own kind.

He declares that Germany would pay him $100,000 to destroy the invention and the drawings, but his government comes first with him. He is a British subject. The invention is quite small: the carriage is of heavy bicycle wheels. How it is constructed and operated is, of course, a secret. The boy says two of these machines can protect a city as large as Toronto. ONLY ONE WAY TO HELP There is enough of segregation, of Jim Crowism in this country, in the South and growing in the North to put colored people on their guard. It should be borne in mind that once a segregation is established, there is no changing back to equal association. Hence where colored people have been and still can enter institutions for the public, it is Interesting News Concerning the Race. most necessary to persist in keeping up this association and mingling. Such is the case in the North, especially in Boston. It is also well known that the spirit of ostracism is growing here, and that nothing so surely breaks up the open entrance as the establishment of a place or institution for the special benefit of colored people. Acceptance of such a place gradually ends this mingling custom. This ostracism strikes a vital spot in employment. We find colored persons shut out of places of work or confined to a low grade of work, segregated. The public school works in the direction of helping against this ostracism, but the practice of mingling as neighbors needs to be kept up in places outside of school, for the vast majority of colored children get through school early. Here is where the philanthropic educational and recreative institutions come in, the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Y. M. C. U., Neighborhood and Settlement houses, etc. If the custom of all races and colors mingling in these obtains, then the exclusion of all colored youth from working places can be broken down some. It is most important of all for the white philanthropists who support these institutions to understand the absolute necessity of this association and mingling as far as the colored go. They controll these places. If they are made or allowed to believe that they aid the colored people by setting up a place or institution where the colored will have the right of way and monopolize, then the race loses that which is most prejudice. Let these white people understand that they can help the colored people best and can only help them by having all institutions open to the colored with the white, and the race can be saved. Only by impressing the white contributors thus can Boston be saved from Jim Crowism. Who ever encourages the special place for colored idea is the worst possible enemy to the colored race. For Boston sets the highest pace for us in this country. (Amsterdam News.) The most happy and reassuring official visit ever paid the United States by a foreign man of war that is from the standpoint of this nation's colored citizens is that of the Minas Geraes, of Brazil, Admiral Henry De Coata in charge. The Admiral, per- State historian & Nat ural History Society the Denver Star FIVE CENTS A COPY. ng News g the Race. haps the finest naval officer in the Brazilian navy, is a colored man and the entire swarthy gallant crew seem to be more or less colored. This is not strange as they remark when one considers that least three-fifths of their nation have colored blood in their veins and furthermore many of the ablest statesmen and soldiers of Brazil have been colored. The two greatest presidents Brazil ever had, those who did perhaps more than all others a generation ago toward the constructive upbuilding and perpetuity of now the strongest, largest and most stable South American Republic, were colored statesmen. As a consequence this, together with the absence of color phobia virus in the Latin's blood have conducted toward the practical absence of a color line in the mighty Southern Republic. All this that has gone before explains the cordial reception given the representative colored citizens who have visited the Minas Geraes during the past few days and the heartfelt greetings extended the Brazilians, especially the colored people, of the city during their trips ashore. The officers and men of the great fighting vessel have been officially entertained by the Mayor and at other public social functions, but they have gladly fallen in line with New York's colored citizens also. Many Dance at Frogs' Frolic. Lieutenant Sampyo and a score of other handsone officers and men in full uniform attended the Frolic of the Frogs on Monday evening in Manhattan Casino, lent a military air to the occasion by their military bearing and brass buttons, blue uniforms and became at once the reigning favorites, especially with the hosts of pretty women in attendance. In interviews they declared their close fraternal feeling for the colored people of this country, told of the grandeur of their own native land, but paid a high tribute to the progress which the race is making here. They were surprised, they remarked, at the fierce color line in the Southern States having been subjected to the indignities of Jim Crow regulations in Norfolk Va. As good soldiers they smilingly bore this, but the cordial feeling of Brazil for the United States and the latter's desire to increase her commerce with the former will not be greatly facilitated because of these incidents. While the officers refused to be quoted as such, they declared there are grand commercial and industrial opportunities in their Southern temperate zone for ambitious and enterprising colored citizens of the United States if they should care to emigrate to their beautiful, balmy Brazil The Larson Shoe Repairing Shop Soles Guaranteed and all Work Done by Latest Improved Machinery Repairing Done While You Wait All Work Guaranteed at the most Reasonable Prices Work Phone Champa 16 Fire Proof Pal Newly Built and Short Orders Headquarter 2130 Arapahoe "CLEANLINES Then if you wa Our Prices are Rig do all kinds of Fin Ironed by Hand.

Last Sabbath morning Dr. L. Hall, late of the Presbytery of Grand Rapids, favored the congregation with an able pre-communion sermon. At evening more than 95 per cent. of the resident membership partook of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper. The membership is hereby reminded of a special offertery of $3 per capita to meet our financial obligation to the Board of Church Erection on the third Sabbath of the month. The quarterly financial report submitted to the congregation last Wednesday night showed a receipt of $364.50. Amounts for benevolences and auxiliaries are not included in these figures; $115.84 for the same period of time is still owing by members who are in arrears. The membership is to be commended.

Notwithstanding the heat last Sunday morning the attendance was fine and the congregation seemed to enjoy the sermon of the pastor. Also at the evening service a goodly number was present for the communion. One was added to the membership and eight persons were fellowshipd into the church. Zion is somewhat enthused over the prospect of an early move into its new quarters. The date is set for the first Sunday in the month of October. The fall rally is so timed as to be held on the last Sunday in the old church and the first Sunday in the new. A very generous subscription has already been secured from the membership to be paid in at the time of the rally. The entire church will be canvassed and the hope is that each loyal member of Zion will be heard from at this effort. This Sunday evening subject for the stereopticon service is "The Story of Daniel." Being one of the most beautiful and touching stories in the Bible, the congregation is assured a most helpful lesson and a large number is expected to be present. On Monday evening, the 21st of this month, Prof. Charles Alexander will render his celebrated lecture, "An Evening with Dunbar." No lover of his race should miss this lecture as it is one rich with profit and interest. Mr. Alexander gives a new insight into the life and work of the poet. Admission 25 cents.—Adv. Dr. S. N. Vass of the American Baptist Society will hold an institute at the church the week of August 10-15. Afternoon and evening Bible studies will be given free to the public. Everyone is invited to come and see the old Scriptures made new. CAMPBELL CHAPEL, A. M. E. CHURCH. Corner Twenty-third and Lawrence Streets. Rev. H. Franklin Bray, D. D., Pastor. The pastor will preach at 11 o'clock tomorrow. If you like good music hear Campbell's choir. You haven't heard any music until you do. A large and attentive congregation heard Dr. Julian C. Caldwell last Sunday evening in the delivery of a sermon which of eloquence, logic and spiritual fire was a masterpiece. We have just wounded up our third quarter's work with the following report: Trustees, $381.79 (not including the report from clubs for this week); stewards, $424.75; Sewing Circle, $49.30; Pastor's Aid, $25.46; Missionary Society, $33.37; choir, $8.54; Allen League, $2.56; Usher Boards, $5.20. God bless the faithful who made it so. Bishop H. Blanton Parks, D. D., presiding Bishop of the Fifth Episcopal District, will preach at 7:45 Sunday evening. If you fail to hear him you are the loser. If you hear him, you, the Bishop and church are profited. There is no greater preacher in the ranks of the ministry today than Bishop Parks. The choir will furnish some special music for this service. Among the numbers to be sung is that inspiring song, "The Church is Moving On." The official board made all necessary arrangements Monday evening for the collection of every conference obligation and the completion of what is generally conceded to be the best year's work in the history of Campbell. Meet the members of all the churches and those of no church at the Moffat station Monday morning at 8:30 for that excursion to Tolland. Mr. Polk, one of the finest caterers in Colorado, will have everything good to eat, including some of that barbecued meat for which he is famous. SHORTER CHAPEL. Washington and Twenty-third Sts. Rev.

At the morning hour last Sabbath Mr. Julian C. Caldwell of Nashville, Tenn., delivered a most eloquent and forceful appeal for higher ideals for the youth. His sermon was highly instructive and edifying and our congregation was deeply impressed with both the man and the message. He left Monday over the D. & R. G. for Los Angeles, Cal., to attend the international convention of Christian Endeavor. Among the out-of-town visitors who worshipped at Shorter last Sabbath were Messrs. C. H. Payre, Chicago, and Roy Oliver, St. Louis; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Gray, St. Louis; Mesdames Bella Lopez, New York; J. W. Towns, Dallas; T. F. Norris, New York; L. W. Bell, Minneapolis; Fannie Brooks, Kansas City; S. G. Pryor, Little Rock; W. H. Rodgers, Pueblo; Mr. Cook, Dallas, and M. M. Dorman, Little Rock. Sisters Frances A. Earley, Agnes H. Bruce, J. S. Pope were admitted into our membership last Sunday. At a recent meeting of the Stewardess Board, held at the home of Mrs. Thos. Reed, 2052 Lawrence street, Mrs. Martha A. Green was elected its president. She assumed duties under encouraging conditions. While Miss Jennie Hicks, our popular and efficient chorister, is on vacation, Mrs. Lillian (Hawkins) Jones will serve as directress of the choir. Mrs. Jones is perfectly at home in a choir and the officers are fortunate in securing her services. Our Ushers' Club has out an attractive program announcing a popular mid-summer entertainment and social, Thursday evening, July 17th. The name of the Usher Club on any enterprise generally spells success. Don't miss it. The annual picnic of Shorter church and Sunday school will be held at Glazier Lake, August 7th. A cordial invitation extended our neighbors to join us.-Adv. The funeral service of Sister Lozetta Branch, a pious devotee of Shorter, was held Sunday afternoon, the pastor officiating. The Mite Missionary Society, through Mrs. L. E. Richardson, presented a beautiful set of resolutions setting forth her many virtues. Her remains were laid to rest in Fairmont cemetery.

Miss Eslander Viola Thomas, the daughter of Dr. I. L. Thomas of Baltimore, graduated in public school music recently at the Ithaca Conservatory of Music, Ithaca, N. Y. For four years she was a student at the Ithaca conservatory and during that period took a course in piano, voice and public school music. She made public school music a specialty during her senior year and graduated from the conservatory with high honors, being regarded by the faculty and graduating class as the best teacher of music in the class of 1013. Miss Thomas occupies the unique distinction of being the only colored student of the 1913 class. She became a general favorite both in the Ithaca community and the conservatory, principally on account of her dignified bearing and deportment. The course in public school music completed by Miss Thomas and required by the conservatory, is the course indorsed by the state of New York. Dr. Fisher, the pastor of the A. M. E. Zilon church of Ithaca, the only col- A MISS R. VIOLA-THOMAS. oed Methodist church there, speaks of Miss Thomas and her accomplishments in glowing terms, stating that she became indispensable in the work of his church while a resident of Ithaca; that she directed his church choir and Sunday school music with great ability, and that her service as a teacher in the Sunday school and her example were worthy of emulation by any young Christian woman. She received many tokens of esteem from her friends in Ithaca and elsewhere upon the occasion of her graduation in June, and it is the consensus of opinion that she bids fair to make her mark in the musical world. Miss Thomas' work was also highly praised by her instructors. She received her academic training at Morgan college in Baltimore. Her father is an assistant field secretary of the board of home missions and church extension of the M. E. church. Miss Thomas is a brother of James S. Thomas, who is making a fine record as instructor of German in Howard university, Washington. IMPORTANAT COMING EVENT FOR THE BAPTIST FAMILY. National Convention and Exhibition to Be Held in Nashville, Tenn. Nashville, Tenn.—Ryman auditorium, one of the largest in the south, and Greenwood park, by far the most well known city park in the United States owned by Afro-Americans, have been selected as the places for holding the meetings of the national Baptist convention and carrying out the exhibition that is to be held in connection therewith to observe fifty years of freedom. These two places have been secured by the local committee and placed at the disposal of the executive committee of the national Baptist convention and the promoters of the exposition. The local ministers unanimously accepted these places for the two respective occasions at a meeting of the city ministers' conference held here recently, but the official transmission of their action was made known to the president of the convention July 10. Ryman auditorium, formerly called Gospel tabernacle, which will be the scene of the principal gatherings of the Baptist family, seats 6,000 people. It consists of a main auditorium and a gallery. The gallery is famous because it was built and dedicated to the "gallant Confederacy." The building was erected at the enormous cost of about $100,000. it having been built expressly for the late Samuel Jones, the noted evangelist who had traveled throughout the United States. It is situated on Fifth avenue, north, one block from Broadway and one block from Church street. It can be reached on eight different car lines. Greenwood park comes into prominence because of the fact that it is the most exclusive and largest park of its kind in the United States. It is the property of an ex-slave and an ex-Union soldier. It consists of forty acres, with all modern conveniences, such as an auditorium, a clubhouse, band stands, exhibition halls, with a separate athletic field and a mammoth grand stand. Numerous shade trees, natural springs and a small zoo are to be found on these grounds. The park is reached by troley car and is the one place where Nashville people resort during the hot days. It is said to be worth $200,000. 1930 MRS. A: M. POPE-TURNBO PROPRIETOR "Poro" College 3100 Pine St. St. Louis, Mo. THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair. The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I alone, know the secret of the composition that bears that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method of treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

The organization is increasing in membership very rapidly, due at the present time largely to the host of young men graduates from the various medical schools throughout the country. 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.

FEATURES OF THE PROGRAM Personnel of Commission Appointed by Governor William Sulzer Bespeaks Success For Coming Exhibition of Race Progress to Be Held In New York In October. New York.—The commission appointed by Governor Sulzer of New York in accordance with the provisions of a law recently enacted in that state to provide for a fitting celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the emancipation is particularly fortunate in the quality of its personnel. The nine members of the commission have been drawn from among the most influential and representative colored men of the state, a fact which is particularly M. B. DR. W. E. BURGARDT DU BOIS. interesting as showing the white man's growing belief in the colored man's executive ability and capacity for organization. The chairman of the commission is Robert N. Wood, the recognized leader of the United Colored Democracy, whose influence with the present administration and legislature was in no small measure responsible for the successful issue of this and that other effort to secure equal opportunities for the colored man's social uplift in New York—the bill creating a colored regiment of militia. Mr. Wood is ably seconded by James D. Carr, assistant corporation counsel of the city of New York and a man whose scholarly attainments render him conspicuous among the leading men of the race. Dr. John R. Hillery of New York is the treasurer. Rev. W. A. Byrd of Rochester, N. Y., has been an important factor in the life of the city made famous for colored people as the home of Frederick Douglass and the location of a statue in his honored memory. The other members of the commission are Dr. W. E. B. Du Bols, editor of the Crisis; James H. Anderson of the Amsterdam News; J. Henry Taylor of the New York Pilot; Sumner H. Lark, editor of the Brooklyn Eye; Rev. George Sims, one of the most efficient and practical religious leaders in New York city, and John B. Clayton, a business man of Brooklyn. These men have set their shoulders to a wheel that goes uphill, but they have the push that will bring them out on top, with only a small appropriation of $25,000 and three months in which to organize an exposition "to show the industrial, educational and religious progress of the colored people since the emancipation proclamation." The scope of the exposition is not limited to New York, but will cover the progress of the race generally. For this reason persons in other states will be invited to take part. The commission seeks to make this exposition distinctively and impressively educational. There will be as little as possible of the country fair type of exposition. The commission rather stresses the conferences and congresses on the religious, economic and other important aspects of the problem of the advance of the race. A special feature of the exposition will be the series of pageants illustrating historically the progress of the Negro from the remotest times, his migration to the new world, and so on down to and since his emancipation from slavery. In addition to this, special departments of art, literature, inventions, etc., will be placed in charge of competent persons well informed in their respective branches. The commission is to prepare a roll of honor of 200 men, selected by their fellows as being really representative leaders of the race. The exposition will cover the last ten days of October, and three of these will be called respectively governor's day. Douglass day and Lincoln day. Brooklyn Y. W. C. A.'s Good Work. The Lexington avenue branch of the Young Women's Christian association has added 133 new members to its roll since the first week in May. The prize for bringing in the largest number by an individual was awarded to Mrs. Richard I. Jhekson. Mrs. Alice W. Sery is chairman of the membership committee. VIRGINIA WOMEN IN UPLIFT WORK Hold Thirteenth Annual Convention In Richmond. WELCOMED BY DR. FREEMAN Reports of Influential State Organization of Baptist Women Engaged In Missionary and Educational Work Show Receipts of $4,476.50—Large Delegations Were Present. Richmond, Va.—A review of the work of the Women's Baptist Missionary and Educational convention, which held its thirteenth annual meeting in the historic First Baptist church, in this city, shows fine results. The convention was the guest of the women's circle of the above named church, of which the Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson is pastor. The president of the circle is Mrs. M. E. Holmes, who is capable and energetic. The sessions were presided over by the president, Mrs. M. R. Johnson, who greeted the large assemblage with well chosen words which were both timely and inspiring. Owing to the illness of his excellency Governor William Hodges Mann and the absence of Mayor George Ainslie from the city, the address of welcome on behalf of the state was delivered by Dr. Douglas Freeman, director of publicity for the state board of health. Dr. Freeman's address was highly inspiring and filled with words of good cheer and praise for the excellent work which the convention is doing. After the appointment of the various committees the president read her annual address, which was listened to with spellbound attention. She first spoke of the many reasons for thankfulness, of the organization of the association in this city thirteen years ago and of the work that has been accomplished during the past thirteen years. Mrs. Johnson then gave a glowing account of the work of the present year. It was clearly seen that the president had worked ardouously, visiting nearly every district and organizing many new circles. She, having kept in touch with all the officers, could relate what was going on and what had been accomplished in each section. Her address was excellent, rich and rare and allied with good thoughts and suggestions which gave great encouragement to the entire audience. Many were the compliments and words of commendation bestowed upon her. The evening session of the first day was given over to addresses of welcome by the pastor and the various organizations of the church-viz, the Missionary and Educational circle, deacon board, usher board, B. Y. P. U. of Christian Endeavor society, Y. P. C. association, W. C. T. U., First Baptist Church Journal, the Church Aid society, the Sunday school, the choir and the Helping Hand club. The welcome addresses were responded to by Mrs. A. E. Buford, Mrs. Mebane and Mrs. Cora B. Murray. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. J. A. Collins of Franktown, Va. Mrs. M. E. White read a fine paper on "The Joy of True Service." Splendid addresses on education were delivered by Dr. H. L. Barco and Dr. W. T. Johnson, who spoke well of the work being done in the various schools. The schools in the different districts were represented by addresses delivered by Dr. A. A. Graham, Dr. G. Read, Dr. F. W. Williams, Rev. P. J. Wallace, Professor Robinson, Rev. B. Terrell, Miss Rosa Gains, Dr. G. R. Hovey and Miss Carrie V. Dyer. Rev. William Thomas, the returned missionary from Africa, was present during the convention and delivered a very interesting address, giving an account of his labors among the heathen. Mrs. J. H. Randolph, president of the Women's auxiliary of the Lott Carey foreign mission convention, spoke in the interest of her work. The amount of $2,227.16 was raised at this session and $2,249.34 raised during the year, making a total of $4,476.50 for the year's work. The officers for the ensuing year were installed by Dr. J. E. Jones; President, Mrs. M. R. Johnson; first vice president, Mrs. M. R. Goode; second vice president, Mrs. L. G. King; third vice president, Mrs. Ella Mercer; fourth vice president, Mrs. Julia Patterson; recording secretary. Mrs. A. E. Read; statistician, Mrs. Ora B. Stokes; chairman of executive board, Mrs. M. E. Holmes; chairman of central district, Mrs. A. E. Blackwell; eastern, Mrs. Eliza Wallace; northern, Mrs. M. L. Terry; southwestern, Mrs. M. G. Goode. California Women's Clubs Meet July 29. The seventh annual meeting of the California State Federation of Women's Clubs will be held in the Fifteenth Street Methodist church in Oakland for three days, beginning Tuesday morning, July 29, at 10 o'clock. Mrs. E. V. Morley, president of the federation, says that the annual conventions of the organization are great sentiment molders. They teach our people to be judicious, cautious, wise and perseverant in all things which make for mutual benefit. Such gatherings also encourage the women of the race to acquire knowledge in literature, art, science, business and the art of home building.

JACK JOHNSON'S CLEVER TRICK Report has it that the black king of pugilism has made good his escape. Outwitting all government watch dogs. It was accomplished by importing from the south a man of his likeness in every respect. Dressed in the champion's clothes he would sit for hours on the porch while preparations for escape were being made. Selling his automobile and other personal property, accompanied by his wife and Secy., Johnson made good his escape, purchasing a through ticket to Havre. He is gone perhaps never to return, before many years the black conquerer will pass into the realms of the forgotten, and so will end the career of the only negro that ever succeeded in mastering physically the pugilistic world.

Patrick Langston Co., York 6514- Adv. 6-14-18 Normal, Ala. — The thirty-eighth annual commencement of the Agricultural and Mechanical college in this town, of which Walter S. Buchanan is president, has closed what is to all intents and purposes the record breaking year in the history of that famous institution. After four years of his administration young Walter S. Buchanan is able to present Normal to the public in much of its same glory and popularity it enjoyed in the best days of its founder, the well known William H. Councill. Although this young educator found the plant in a much run down condition after the death of his distinguished predecessor he has been able to add many facilities and improvements, to erect four buildings in four years and to re-establish the institution on much of its former basis Fifteenth young people received diplomas from the normal or academic department and eighteen from the various trade divisions. All of the graduating exercises centered in a discussion of the rural school, each speaker from the salutatorian to the valedictorian taking part in the symposium of the subject. Increased interest in rural school education for Negroes was heightened by the fact that every subject was illustrated by actual demonstration. "Plans For the Rural School" was the subject of the salutatory presented by Joseph W. Falls, who exhibited a model schoolhouse containing a cooking room, a sewing room and two cloak rooms. Three other graduates, William Fennoy, James H. Herbert and James H. Hunter, demonstrated "Building a Schoolhouse." "Plastering a Schoolhouse" and "Painting a Schoolhouse" respectively, each doing the actual work before the audience. "Sewing In the Rural Schools" was undertaken by Rosalyn V. Harris, while Elias J. Murdock took for his subject "The School Farm as a Means of Extending the School Term." Rosa Belle Black, in demonstrating "Cooking In the Rural School," prepared an appetizing lunch for six at an itemized cost of 75 cents. On account of the inability of Rev. Richard Carroll to be present and deliver the annual address, Dr. Rev. R. S. Gavin, pastor of the First Baptist church (white) of Huntsville, spoke to the graduates and emphasized the importance of loyalty to self, to others and to their religious creeds. "No matter what your life's calling may be," said Dr. Gavin, "make up your mind that you are going to grasp every opportunity that comes your way." He commented upon the advantages of the kind of education given in a school like Normal, where young people are not only educated, but trained, and declared among other things: "The plan of the work proposed in this school is ideal. It is not possible to overestimate the value of an institution like this." The nurse training department of the school offers superior advantages to young women. It has comfortable quarters in the new Virginia McCormick hospital, of which Dr. W. L. Council is surgeon in chief. Dr. Willis E. Storrs delivered the annual address to the students of this department. The annual musicale was a splendid success. Mrs. Ida C. Buchanan presided. Editor O. W. Adams of the Birmingham Reporter delivered the address to the preparatory department. Prizes in the speaking contest were awarded to Dorsey E. Payne and Armola Whitfield. THRIFTY BUSINESS CONCERN.

Baltimore. — Recognizing the fact that the overwhelming majority of hotels and restaurants in every section of the United States will not give the Afro-American traveling public any accommodations whatever and that there is a demand from the race for such first class accommodations, a few Afro-Americans here with means and courage are attempting to meet this necessity. Here and there around the country are places a traveler may stay for a brief period and find the best of surroundings as well as service. Baltimore is probably the one community that stands in the forefront in this regard. It has several hostelries run by the race, and each has been built within the past six years to accommodate the needs of the local and traveling public. The most recent of these places is one owned and run by Thomas R. and Wallace L. Smith on Druid Hill avenue, in this city, right in the vicinity of the best colored residential section. Natives of the city and still in their early forties, the Messrs. Smith conducted separate establishments for the ten years previous to the past spring, when they decided to combine. The result is the property of Wallace L. Smith and the adjoining property were improved at a cost of $23,000. When the place was thrown open to the public in October, 1912, patrons were greeted by what is said to be the finest place of its kind cast of the Miss- HOTEL SMITH'S HOTEL. sissippi river. Since its opening some of the most prominent men of the race visiting here have been guests, and each has been lavish in his praise of the excellent service. Smith's hotel has a frontage of fortynine feet on Drudd Hill avenue and extends back ninety-nine feet to a small street. It has seventeen separate bedrooms, a large dining room, kitchen, ladies' parlor, lobby for men, rathskeller, numerous baths and one of the handsomest buffets in the country, fitted with electric lights, beautifully decorated walls and a tiled floor. Prompt and polite service greets the patrons, and they are numbered by the thousands in course of a month. As Thomas, Smith expresses it: "The public is entitled to first class hotel accommodations in an atmosphere where a man need not be afraid to take his family, and we have tried to give the public what has long been desired. Inferior accommodations in bad surroundings will no longer be tolerated, and you must give the public that which they are able to pay for." A few weeks ago the proprietors of this establishment were tendered a complimentary reception by leading citizens. Men in all walks of life attended, including prominent persons from other cities. The toasts were one continual round of praise for the men whose enterprise had given to Maryland what is probably the finest hotel owned absolutely and conducted by men of the race. Several of the speakers also referred to the fact that every dollar of the cost of the improvements had been paid. Thomas R. Smith is a member of the Knights of Pythias, and Wallace L. Smith is a member of the Masonic and Odd Fellows fraternities. Odd Fellows Start Financial Campaign In the Odd Fellows' Hall association in Pittsburgh has commenced a big financial campaign for the purpose of raising $3,000 to pay off the second mortgage on its property due early in November. The fraternity membership has been quartered off in groups. Each individual member is pledged to raise a certain amount. The households of the order have pledged their co-operation, and the movement is being pushed with vigor and enthusiasm. Among the members of the campaign committee who are directing the force of workers are Samuel A. Dobbins, James S. Patton and John P. Harden. Long Island Baptist Summer Session The Long Island (N. Y.) Baptist association held its summer session in the First Baptist church in Flushing, New York, week ending June 21. The association is composed of about seventy churches in Brooklyn and on Long Island. Among the speakers were many distinguished pastors who have had the oversight of the work for many years. One of the most helpful addresses was that of the Rev. Dr. William M. Moss, pastor of the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn. Lucas in Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. Mr. Clarence Edward Lucas, head bookkeeper at Howard university in Washington, has been made a member of the Beta chapter, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. Young Lucas is a law graduate of Howard. He was made a notary public during ex-President Taft's administration. Mr. Lucas is a graduate of the public and high schools of Brooklyn and is held in high esteem by the people of Brooklyn, who admire him for his ambition and manly bearing.

Greenwood, Ala.—What I have seen in the way of material progress among the colored people on this my first trip into the south has been a revelation and an inspiration, said the former auditor for the navy department, Ralph W. Tyler, now national organizer for the National Negro Business league. I have been greatly impressed, contrary to my early teaching and belief, with the fact that for the average Negro the south offers the best assurance of steady employment unhampered by labor unions and that for the Negro above the average the south offers the best opportunity for the accumulation of wealth. It is true that race discrimination is overhealthy down here; that some rights are restricted and many privileges denied. I do not for a moment condone this restriction of rights or excuse this denial of privileges. Both constitute a blot on the pages of American history. However, I recall that in many of the boasted free cities of the north certain rights are but niggarly granted, many privileges are denied, labor is scarce for the Negro, and accumulation of wealth is practically a white man's monopoly. We enjoy some rights and a few privileges up there which our brothers in the south are denied. They enjoy a monopoly of labor and an unrestricted opportunity to accumulate wealth down here which we are denied in the north. In Macon county, through which I rode, I saw 61,000 acres of farm land owned in fee simple by Negroes. There being 23,000 Negroes in this county, this is an average of nearly three acres per capita. What wonderful progress in fifty years! What a quick advance from poverty to affluence! In the adjoining county of Tallapoosa I viewed 25,000 acres owned and under cultivation by Negroes—more than two acres per capita for Tallapoosa county. I saw stores in this black belt for size, largeness and quality of stock the Negroes of no northern city can equal. I have frequently heard of individual Negroes who were reputed to own a thousand acres of land or more, but I regarded such statements, with the usual northern pessimistic appraisement, as but a myth—as the fanciful creation of the wrongly accused "apologist." On this eighty mile automobile trip I actually met and talked with at least five Negroes—Warren Logan, C. J. Calloway, A. I. Wilborn, E. H. Gamlin and one other whose name has slipped me—each of whom owned a thousand or more acres of rich farm land, with many acres of cotton, corn and grain. As I looked upon the scene I thought of thousands of my race in the north with greater privileges but less land and fewer houses, and I regretfully, almost reproachfully, recalled the lines, "Leon hath a thousand acres, not a penny I." I was in four stores owned by Negroes in this belt, two of which had upon their shelves not less than $5,000 and $8,000 worth of stock. And I was greatly impressed with the race loyalty existing down here, with the almost clannish spirit which impels Negroes to go long distances just in order to patronize Negro merchants. In Macon county A. J. Wilborn owns a two story brick building, in which is located his store with its grocery and notion stock that will approximate $5,000. E. H. Gamlin, in the same county, but about two miles removed, owns a store equal in size, carrying a stock of fully $8,000 valuation, ranging all the way from a halpin and a pound of salt to footwear, bedwear and dainty lingerie for women. In both of these stores the stock is paid for, the pretty modern, commodious homes of the proprietors standing near rest under no mortgage, and beyond the little towns in which they live and do business a thousand acres of crop filled land bring in a splendid revenue. SAMUEL COLERIDGE-TAYLOR. Friends of Composer of International Fame Honor His Memory. According to the London Evening Standard, a stone has been erected at Bandon Hill cemetery. Croydon, over the grave of Mr. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the world famed Anglo-African composer, with the following inscription, written by Mr. Alfred Noyes: "In memory of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, who died on Sept. 1, 1912, at the age of thirty-seven, bequeathing to the world a heritage of an undying beauty. His music lives. It was his own and drawn from vital fountains. It pulsed with his own life, but now it is his immortality. He lives while music lives. Too young to die, his great simplicity, his happy courage in an alien world, his gentleness, made all that knew him love him. "Sleep, crowned with fame, fearless of change or time. Sleep, like remembered music in the soul. Silent, immortal, while our discords climb To the mournful chord which shall resolve the whole. Silent, with Mozart, on that solemn shore; Secure, there neither waves nor hearts of the sea. Sleep till the Master of the world once more Touch the remembered strings and bid thee wake.
