Otto Thum, City Official, Discourages Negroes by Injecting Color Question at Trade School
We have had colored boys and girls graduate from the professional universities and high schools, but for the first time in the history of the west two colored boys graduated in a class of eight from a trade school. They were John Wesley Brown, in carpentry, and Claude Harold DePriest, printing. Both boys led their classes in his line of work and both graduated with honors. The graduating exercises were held Friday, August 1st, in the beautiful trade school building, on the North Side.
There are only four such schools in the country, and Denver's Board of Education is to be congratulated upon its progressiveness in giving the boys the opportunity of securing a systematic and practical education, where the boy can leave the schoolroom and enter the shop, not to SWEEP THE FLOORS and RUN the ERRANDS as part of his apprenticeship but as a finished workman needing only practice and ex
Some of the speakers on the program spoke of the fine work done by the boys in the graduating class, and said that it surpassed many who had had twenty years' experience in the same line of work.
Mrs. Helen Jones, president of the Board of Education and Mr. Smiley, superintendent of the schools, were especially complimentary to Claude DePriest on the designing and printing of the programs used on the occasion, also the diplomas, yet, before these colored boys had gone from this institution to enter upon their life's work, prejudice, that monster of caste and hatred which is attempting to crush the ambitions of our colored youths all over the land, raised its head and sounded the warning of a false friend.
It came from Otto F. Thum, past president of the Denver Typographical Union No. 49, and at present commissioner of property. He made the remark to one of the colored visitors to the exercises "that it made NO DIFFERENCE HOW COMPETENT a Nero was, the union saw to it that none were admitted." The question was asked, "Why?" His answer was that he was from the South and "it was not only a racial but a moral question."
Think of this man being elected to a place of authority, by some of our votes, who has the assurance to say that there is A MORAL QUESTION in the admittance of a black boy to his union, or a chance to honestly earn his bread and butter.
We are proud to say to these colored boys that the
Negro race in America did not attain to its present condition through ANY HELP of the LABOR UNIONS, but in spite of them, and thus far whatever the conditions have been, the Negro has measured up to them. The white man can set no standard to which we will not measure. When the demand came to acquire property, we bought it; character, we attained it; education, we got that also. So if these things have been acquired without the unions, nothing Mr. Thum can say can hinder our success. There are houses to be built and thoughts to be printed for ten million Negroes, so why should Mr. Thum (b) worry and grow thin!!
We want these boys who have received diplomas to make "good;" live up to your opportunities. The state is expecting a return for the money invested in your education and the race believes that you will be a strong post in its grogress toward perfect citizenship.
Complaints have been received at this office, that the clerks in the treasurer's office under Mr. Clare Pitcher, the democrat, have been dilatory in waiting upon Negro taxpayers who come to pay their taxes. They have been made to wait until the white persons are served first. O, that some of us could recall our votes cast! You may have a chance to recall some commissioner yet.
NOTES OF NEGRO BUSINESS PROGRESS
Furnished by the National Negro Business League.
The Georgia Mutual Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Georgia, was recently made a stock company in accordance with the laws of that state, and Ben J. Davis was elected president. The company had been a mutual concern. The men who managed the campaign to make it a stock company had but a few days to raise the $25,000 cash necessary to turn it into a stock company, but this amount was quickly raised among the Negroes of Atlanta.
The largest fish and game dealer at Charlottesville, Virginia, is G. P. Inge, a Negro.

Naming Patterson
Washington, July 31. ---An undisputed high authority here says:
"There is every indication that A. E. Patterson, the Oklahoma colored man, appointed by President Wilson Register of the Treasury, will never draw the salary attached to that office. The Southern Democratic Senators are bitterly opposed to his confirmation and will not yield, and the Northern Democratic Senators are indifferent towards him. Every indication also points to the fact that the nomination was never made in good faith. Stung by the severe criticism of Ralph W. Tyler, whose interview last week stated that President Wilson and his National Committee had solicited the colored vote last November but now refused to give them a square deal, and by J. C. Napier's prompt resignation as Register when the Secretary of the Treasury refused to revoke the segregation order now in effect in that department, President Wilson was forced to make the appointment of Patterson to save his face. At the same time he had been previously informed that the Southern Senators would oppose it, and that there was practically no chance of confirmation. And the President, it is reported, is not insisting that the nomination be confirmed, the belief being general here that he does not desire it to be confirmed. In past years when the nomination of a colored man was held up in the Senate colored people throughout the country wired, wrote and called on their members in Congress, in every state, until confirmation. In this case no assistance is being rendered Patterson by his own race. This is because, first, Patterson comes from a State in which the Democrats have disfranchised the race, and secondly, because Patterson is seeking the office in the face of a contemptible segregation order now in force in the Treasury Department executed under Secretary McAdoo, and which he absolutely refuses to revoke. Segregation in the Treasury and Post Office Departments is now the rule, and segregation in the other departments is likely to be ordered any day. The President knows of the order and its execution, but refuses to interfere, thus approving it. This is why colored people throughout the country, although condemning Southern Senators for their opposition to Patterson, have no sympathy with Patterson's aspirations to use a separate toilet, because he is colored, at $4,000 per year.
Senator Hoke Smith and Senator Gore of Oklahoma talked with President Wilson Monday about the opposition of Southern Senators to the confirmation of A. E. Patterson, nominated for Register of the Treasury.
Neither Senator cared to discuss the conference, but it was said no effort would be made to press the confirmation of Patterson, and withdrawal of his name would not be surprising.
Senator Gore did say, however, that he had originally picked an Oklahoma Indian for the place. He said Patterson had been highly recommended by those in charge of the colored bureau of the Democratic National Committee.
Desperate Spirit Among the Blacks in Washington-- Color Line Drawn in the Departments--Self Respect, ing Negroes Feel the Discrimination Keenly--- Desperate in their Submission Wilson's Campaign Assurances Disregarded.
WASHINGTON, July 22. Ralph W. Tyler, former auditor of the Navy Department, today attacked the Wilson Administration vigorously for its proposed policy of segregation of the white and colored races in the Departments at Washington. Alleging that John Skelton Williams, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, had already inaugurated such a policy in the Treasury Department, and intimating that self-respecting Negroes in that Department feel the action deeply. Tyler said:
"The attitude of the Wilson Administration toward my race is very much like the attitude of a big boy who is always picking on the boy smaller than himself, but who is afraid to touch the boy of his own size. Mr. Williams and his superiors would not have dared to segregate the Italians, Jews, or even the Japanese, who may be in the Government service. This insult offered to any other race would have provoked sturdy opposition and dire results if executed in spite of protests against it.
"During the last campaign, President Wilson and his political managers were quite solicitious about the Negro vote. They had Bishop Walters located in New York trying to secure the Negro vote for Wilson, and they had the Rev. J. Milton Waldron, with headquarters in Washington, dispensing a large sum in an attempt to capture the Negro vote.
"It appears that if the Negro was important enough for Mr. Wilson and his committee to try to secure his vote, he ought to be important enough to get a fair deal at the hands of the men who sought his vote. And Mr. Wilson writing to a Presbyterian minister, Dr. Grimke, shortly after his election, assured the Negro that he would have nothing to regret from his administration that he was to put as much 'Christianity' in his administration as possible. If this unjust, humiliating discrimination of faithful intelligent Negro employees is 'Christianity,' then Negroes will pray for the pagan brand.
"There is absolutely no necessity for segregating the

Negro employees in the Treasury Department except to offer them an insult, except to excite resentment, and except to appease the appeals of a few rabid anti-race individuals whose prejudices blind them to justice, and who lack sufficient confidence in their own mental prowess to measure arms with their Congressional equals in the discussion of economic problems, but must lug in the Negro question as their only stock in trade
It was discouraging, oppressive restrictions that gave France her Robespierre and her Danton, and drove the oppressed under the red banner to the Commune. It has been discouraging, oppressive restrictions that have made red-handed Nihilists of the most humble Jews in Russia. Because the Negro has always worn the yoke of the peaceful, burden-bearing ox, is no assurance to Mr. Williams or his superiors that the Negro will forever continue submissive to all insults, indignities and restrictions.
"Why does this administration vent its spleen against Japan on my race? Why does it dodge Japan's blows and swing hard on my race? Simply on the score of the big bully who picks on the small boy, but will take insults from the boy of his own size. Some day these cowardly segregationists will awake to find the worm has turned."
Mr. Tyler said he had discovered a "driven-at-bay" spirit among his people as a result of their political experiences in pursuit of a policy of submission, and that the question among them is: "How far must we be driven just for peace?"—(From the New York Evening Post of Monday, July 21.
AN AFRICAN CHIEFTAIN PASSES HARVARD EXAMS.
Cambridge, Mass., July 28 A full-blooded African chieftain has just passed his entrance examinations at Harvard with flying colors and will enter the university next September as a member of the class of 1917. He is P. Gbe Wolo. His people, 300,000 strong, are the Krus of Liberia. They have no written language, so that the only way he can communicate with his family is through traders on the coast, who send the message by word of mouth along the trail. The Prudential Savings Bank, a Negro bank at Birmingham, Alabama, will declare a dividend of eight per cent on its stock this year. Dr. U. G. Mason, president, and all the directors serve without salary. The deposits of the bank, which is but three years old, have passed the $60,000 mark.

"THE “PORO” SYSTEM of Scalp and
Hair treatment is based on the lat-
est scientific and sanitary methods,
effecting a healthy scalp thus promot-
ing a growth of beautiful hair.
‘The “Poro” preparations used in con-
nection 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 com-
position that bears that name, Our
claim has always been that when the
hair begins to grow as the result of
the use of “P ORO,” it will
continue to do so if only thescalp
and hair be kent clean. This san-
itary method of treatment is also
having the desired effect in helping
to prevent the spread of diseases, for
it is @ fact that hair in an unsanitary
condition carries the germs of disease
which often prove fatal to innocent
persons coming in contact with them,

WASHINGTON MAKES TRIP *
THROUGH TIDEWATER BELT.
Head of Tuskegee Thrills Virginians
With Message of Hope,
Starting from Hampton institute
Tuesday, May 6, under the general di-
rection of Major R. R. Moton, com-
mandant of Hampton Institute, Dr.
Booker T. Washington, the world re
nowned principal of ‘Tuskegee Institute,
began a four days’ tour through “tide,
water” Virginia. His itinerary includ-|
ed the principal towns in Northamp-
ton, Accomac, Mathews and Glouces-,
ter counties, the territory lying along
the eastern shore of Virginia, where,
many colored people are successfully|
engaged {n farming and where is said:
to be the richest soil in the Old Do-+
minion.
‘The trip was made by Dr. Washing,
ton with a view of arousing the colored.
people of this productive section to:
greater Industry and to encourage them
to stay on the farm, to cultivate the
friendship of the white people of thet
neighborhood and to endeavor throng!
thrift, character, bovesty and ‘retiabtll
ty to create more cordial and. xympa
thetic relations between black mon
and white man
In bis addresses, facing tarsze and)
ences of both races, Dr. Waxhiugton,
emphasied the fmportance of land own}
ing, of having @ bank account und uf
the participation of the colored peoyile
in the commercial life of the state nnd,
nation. :
“Little charity is now extended us."
said Dr. Washington. “We are catied
‘upon to meet the best brain and brawn
of the land in open competition, and it
will require our best efforts, our best
energies and our highest intelligence to
‘make good’ under such a tremendous
test.”
Major Moton's “folk songs" were on:

Pastoral Record of Rev. W.
Sampson Brooks,
BELIEVES IN CO-OPERATION
African Methodism Has Been Ad-
vanced Through the Untiring Labors
‘of a Minister Who Is Worthy of Pro-
motion.
St. Louis.—The Rev. William Samp-
son Brooks, D. D., pastor of St. Paul
A. M. B. church in this city, has bro-
ken the record for money raising for
religious work. He has made for him-
self a place in the history of the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal church that
will ever remain as a monument to his
energy and which will mean his pro-
motion to higher official life.
Dr. Brooks was born in Calvert
county, Md, in May, 1865. He has
achieved success by hard and persist.
ent labors, and his home state 1s proud
of his admirable record. Schools for
the education of colored people were
few and far apart when young Brooks
arrived at school age.
It was after he had reached his ma-
jority that W. Sampson Brooks de-
cided to take on more education, hence
went to Baltimore and entered Morgan
college, remaining there just seven
years, during which time he complet-
ed the academic course and spent some
time in the college department. This
was the beginning of his active work
in the church and for his people. He
felt that the Lord desired to use bim,
and he put himself where he could be
used. He started in the work of the
gospel ministry, Joining the Iowa an-
nual conference at Des Moines in 1803
:
‘

t ;
and was assigned to Minneapolis, Minn..
where he was given an opportunity to
show his ability. During bis stay in
Minneapolis be erected a fine church.
It was while in Minneapolis that
Dr. Brooks decided to broaden bis
sphere of usefulness, hence arranged
for an extensive tour through the old
world. He sailed from New York on
Feb. 27, 1895. He first visited Lon-
don, and while there took a special
course in the Art museum. He then
visited Liverpool, Rome, going through
Italy, France and along the course of
the Mediterranean sea, through Spain
and Portugal, spending some time in
the holy land and then Into Africa
He speaks the Swedish and Norwegian
languages as fluently as he does his
mother tongue.
He has pastored churehes in Des
Molnes, Chicazo and Nashville. In
Nashville his real worth as a pastor
was recognized by the people during
bis short stay there, where he ac-
complished a great work, adding many
to the church and raising large
amounts of money for the church.
When the congregation of the St
Paul A.M. EB. church here was
stroggling under a heavy debt, Bishop
Parks was petitioned to seud to the
church a man of experience in church
finance, an organizer and leader. Dr.
Brooks was then pastoring in Nash-
ville, but the bishop heeding the call
of the St Paul church assigned Dr.
Brooks as its pastor. On taking charge
he met the officers of the church,
talked over conditions, then met the
feople. outlined the work and put every
member {n the church to work, and
each new member was Informed that
he would have to work, for drones
were not wanted.
‘The Indebtedness amounted to $14,
000 and he declared that it should be
wiped ont. May 19, $7,541.85 was the
amount put on the table, and it ts de-
clared that within a few weeks $2,000
will be placed on the table and there
will be a shonting In St. Paul A. M.
B, chureh, St. Louls, for it will be out
of debt.
In 1916 will be held the centennial
general conference, and many of the
ministers have alrendy declared that
{t will be then that Dr. Brooks will
be elevated. ‘The man who can bring
souls Into the church, ralse $5,000 one
Sunday, and then on another Sunday
put down over $7.000 fs a born leader
and {s the man who should be put
Where he can lend more largely, and
the A. M. F. church ts going to put
Dr. Brooks tn such a position.
NEW LIGHT ON
HAYNES AGENCY
Young Ad, Man Uncer Fire of
Publishers.
EXPLAINS HS. METHODS.
oe ne eae Oa ee ee ators
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
New York.—Having recelved letters
from « number of publishers in refer-
ence to the responsibility of the
Haynes Advertising agency in this
city, I considered it my duty to make
@ personal investigation in order to
furnish the members of the National
Negro Press association with impartial
and sccurate information. ‘To my
mind sn advertising agency Is subject
only ‘0 the control of the periodicals
which it represents.
I had the pleasure of calling upon
the Haynes Advertising agency a few
days sco and was -most cordially re-
ceived by Mr. Haynes, who is the
proprietor of the business. After a
few brief preliminary remarks I stated
my mission, and without the least hesi-
tation Mr, Haynes in the most intelli-
gent way outlined his method of op-
eration
‘Mr. Haynes says: “This agency is
the outcome of nearly two years strug-
gle against many obstacles. One is
that of general racial prejudice, which
isa universal handicap. Another most
vital feature is that in a number of
cases we have not been able to get
accurate and efficient service from
many of the colored publishers. The
methods of general advertising have
been creatly changed {n recent years.
The most important additional feature
is the ‘key system,’ which has been
adopted by all of the big advertisers.
By this method each medium carrying
an svertisement is recorded by the
advertiser and is known by different
numers. For instance, one publication
4s known by department 6, another Is
known by department 24, and so on.
“This system enables the advertiser
to systematically check up replies
from each medium carrsing"his adver-
tlsement, thus showing the actual re
sults of each individual periodical in
which bis advertisement appears. This
oné'téature alone has created extra ex-
pense in stamps, stationery and time,
corresponding with publishers, in-
structing them to insert ‘key num-
bers’ correctly. We have written as
many as six letters to some of these
publishers on this one point before
we could make them understand it.
“Advertisers will not pay for any
newspaper advertisements until suf-
ficiemt proof of Insertions is estab-
Ushed, This tmportant feature has
been entirely ignored by many.
“A great many who have been car-
rying advertisements from this office
have fafled to send In voucher copies
bearing the advertisement. This also
has greatly disturbed our routine.”
I was then shown snfictent proof
that legal action had been started
against an advertiser n order to make
colleetion for publications that had
omplled with instructions by insert-
ing their proper key numbers and
sending in voucher copies of their
poblleations. In this particular case
Mr. Haynes claimed that he had not!
Sed the publishers to whom he was
ebted that he would be personally
responsible for all bills if collections
were not made within a lmited time.
Mn Haynes further sald: “The su
prem@ey of this agency has been made
possible by my most comprehensive
bination rate plan, and careful
study and experiment have proved that
my System is the most effective and
productive service to offer the big ad-
yertisers. ‘Phere is no Individual
Nezto publication haying enough cir-
culation to Interest the big advertiser;
consequently the combination of from
ten to a hundped publications offer
ing & combined circulation of many
thousands ts abgefutely the only propo-
sition that will attract the attention of
the Dig advertiser to this class of pub-
cation.
“From an ethical ‘standpoint it is
not improper, unsafe or unwise I
crouping together any number of pub-
lications fn order to accomplish e thing
that could not be done otherwise. I
mleht add that through my most favor-
able Connections with the United Pub-
lishets" association and many of the
large white advertising agencies of
the country I am quite confident that
within a short time this establishment
will De @ creditable asset to the colored
publishers of this country. My advice
to the colored publishers throughout
the country Is to give more attention
to clreulation. ‘That is the essential
chord on which the big advertisers
play.
Mr Haynes is a member of the Na-
tional Negro Press association, and bis
long practical experience In ‘business
should give him first hand knowledze
as to business principles, and T belleve
that Mis agency is absolutely reliable
and offers the most ttngible and prac-
Heal Proposition ever before brought
to thamiteahtion of the bic advertisers.

HAS C. W. BUFORD BEEN
DOUBLE-CROSSED?
owner of the piano; after which the music company appealed the verdict of the jury to County court. The case
Negro Democrats Lose Jobs!!—White Men Replace Them.
The intelligence has reached this office that Chas, W. Buford, a thorough democrat of long years' standing, has been compelled to give up his position as watchman at the Capitol in the bureau of mines. He has been supplanted by a white man for the alleged reason that, notwithstanding he has held the position about four years, faithfully discharging his duties without complaint, some white man must be put in charge now who "knows and understands minerals," so Mr. Henehan is alleged to have said. Governor Ammons declares he knows nothing of the affair only by hearsays, although a member of the Board of Capitol Managers. Wm. Hill, janitor, also a democrat, was unceremoniously let out. It smells like a doublecross to us. Was it, and I wonder who did it? It would not be amiss to print an observation from the Dallas Express, under the head of Negro democros:
"The Negro democrat has ceased to exist in the land. His silly mouthings in derogation of the republican party constitute the saddest page in the history of the race since the days of freedom. The elevation of the democratic party to national control has proven a blessing in giving of rude setbacks to the gang of pirates of colored hue, who were willing to sell their birthright for a mess of pottage. Woodrow Wilson, unlike Grover Cleveland, is in line with his party in his treatment of the Negro. He believes that work other than holding office should fill the measure of the ambition of the Negro, and if his measure after work is not full, in all likelihood, during his administration at least, the empty spot will fill an aching void which the democratic party will never fill."
NEGROES' DUTY TO FRIENDS.
We have not been an admirer of Allison Stocker, Denver's former treasurer, and not until he was defeated for office in the recent election, did we hear of his fairness to his colored constituents. He placed a certain lady of color in his office over the protest of a few white women, and because he did that these women while working in the office secretly worked for Pitcher, who was elected and whom, we are pretty reliably informed, told "his white office force that for them not to worry, no Negro would be appointed in a clerical position in his office." Pitcher is a democrat and thinks a common, ordinary messengership ought to satisfy the Negro who was duped into voting for him. These five commissioners openly and flagrantly drew the color line and we are hoping to have a recall or that the Supreme Court would set them aside. "Stand and see the salvation of the Lord; God is not dead yet." But in the meantime let us be true to our friends and keep our eye on our enemy. Mr. Stocker has risen 100 per cent, in our estimation as a man, and someday somewhere, we may be able to speak of this again. What has the Negro gotten out of this administration but discrimination, contumely and chagrin? O, for a change!
$300,00 AND COSTS OR RETURN PIANO.
The jury in the case of Columbine Music Co. vs. A. E. Ballard returned a verdict in favor of Mrs. Ballard that the Columbine Music Co., who replenished and took away from the possession of Mrs. Ballard, a piano, that they should return the piano to her or give her $300 and costs. The suit came about in this way: In year 1911, the Columbine Music Co. advertised for persons to join the 500 class to purchase pianos from them on these conditions, that the person who join the class sign for piano and paid monthly would be entitled to six months' music lessons free and if the purchaser of the piano died before the piano was paid for the piano would be given without further payments to the wife of the person who started in to purchase. Mr. A. E. Ballard in his lifetime joined the above class, began payments on the piano and died in 11 months thereafter. He had regularly made his payments and his wife claimed under the agreement under the 500 class that she was the owner of the piano. The Columbine Co. refused to allow her to keep the piano, brought suit to determine the rights to the piano. The case was tried before Justice Rice July 23 before a jury who brought in their verdict which was that Mrs. Ballard was the

Served Government at Monrovia Two Terms—May Run For Congress.
Baltimore—Dr. Ernest Lyon, former United States minister to Liberia, may enter the fight for the Republican nomination for congress in the Third Maryland district. He has been asked by friends all over the district, which lies wholly within Baltimore, to contest for the nomination. The district contains over 4,000 colored voters and the bulk of the foreign vote. As Dr. Lyon is well and favorably known, his nomination, if he enters the fight, could be secured in a hard campaign. The district has no representative in congress at present, Congressman George Konig having died not long ago.
Dr. Lyon is no novice in the field of politics. He has been in touch with zone of the most influential Republicans in the country, and his counsel has been sought in a number of campaigns. His activities have brought him in contact with such men as the late Mark Hanna, the late Speaker Reed, Colonel Roosevelt and others. During the presidential campaign of 1900 he was one of three members of the advisory committee and as such worked indefatigably for the success of McKinley and Roosevelt. In 1903 President Roosevelt appointed him American minister to Liberia, where he remained for eight years. Besides having in preparation a volume on Liberia, he is now pastoring the John Wesley M. E church in this city. He resides at 111 West Hill street.

UNIVERSITY COMMISSION.
Object of New Organization With
Delegates From Eleven States.
The university commission on race questions, originated through the efforts of Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the James foundation, and other progressive southerners, is composed of representatives from eleven state universities and was organized in Nashville, Tenn., 1912.
Dr. Dillard said in explanation of the meeting that the state institutions owe it to the colored people to take up the matter in a scientific way. All thinking southerners realize that the state institutions owe to the white citizens as well a careful consideration of race questions with a view to their better ment.
The purpose of the commission is to serve as an agency to acquaint the white people of the south with the real conditions existing among the colored people. By presenting concrete facts and possible remedies it is hoped to put in operation forces which will improve existing conditions and create a farmer basis for future relations. At the second meeting of the commission in Athens, Ga., in December, 1912, six working committees on religion, education, hygiene, economics, civic rights and race adjustment were chosen. The chairman, Professor C. H. Brough of the University of Arkansas, a Mississippi man, in his address at the opening of the conference, reviewed conditions in the six phases of the race problem selected for study.
He spoke of the excessive denominalism and unpractical preaching among the Negroes which weaken true religion, of the rapid progress in education as shown by the census and of the forces retarding economic development—the tenant system, the one crop system and rural isolation. These facts will be significant, he thinks, in a consideration of future relations. The leaders of both races recognize the difficulties with which they are confronted. The only solution lies in a clear, unprejudiced presentation of facts to the public and the development of a kindly spirit of co-operation for improved conditions. With both the intelligent Negroes and educated whites concentrating their energies upon race adjustment, the term "race problem" may soon disappear from the American vocabulary.
THE HEMANS-HOWARD AFFAIR
Fun Poked at Howard's Color Line Bill by a Lawyer.
The full text of the letter which Attorney Charles H. Hemans recently sent to Representative William Schley Howard, author of the bill to separate white and colored passengers on the street cars in the District of Columbia, which created such a stir among Afro-Americans in Washington, is given here as follows:
Hon. William Schley Howard, House of
Representatives, Washington, D.C.
Representatives, Washington, D. C.; Sir-1 noticed an article in the Washington Times last week stating that you had introduced in the house of representatives a bill drawing the color line on trolley cars in the District of Columbia. I heartily commend your attitude and endeavor. I must say that you should for example also contain a provision making it unlawful and punishable in the police court of the District of Columbia for any colored person to be served in white drug stores or other stores, or to be treated by white physicians, or, where their liberty or property rights are involved, to be served by white lawyers.
If you will amend your bill in accordance with the above suggestions I think it would serve the intended purpose and keep both races apart in every material respect. I think that if segregation laws are to be brought about by congressional legislation for the District of Columbia they ought not to be half cocked affairs. In all the heavy Negro states the laws forbid intermarriage between men and women; there is no statute law public sentiment is pronounced and unmistakable. There are about 200,000 mulattoes in the United States, which number is daily increasing by reason of the illicit intercourse between white men and colored women, to say nothing of the 200,000 or more octoons and quadroons who perhaps have not clandestinely passed over to the white race. If there were adequate segregation laws we would not have to look upon that baleful affair.

The "Black Tennis Grounds" are accessible to white people when there are no Negroes to play upon them, but at no time shall the Negro put his foot upon the "Holy white tennis ground."

SALVATION ARMY MATTERS.
Commander Booth Issues Certificates to First Group of Afro-Americans. The first group of Afro-Americans for Salvation Army work was recently commissioned in Washington by Commander Eva Booth. In the group are three women and three men under Adjutant G. N. Roberts. These persons will be assigned to work among their own people.
Their commission carries the rank of lieutenant. One of the new features of work which will receive immediate attention will be the plans for the erection of an industrial home in the District of Columbia with full equipment for all necessary industrial work in connection with the Salvation Army. Another plan for future consideration is the starting of a training home at some convenient point in the south. Afro-Americans will have entire charge of the home. Commander Booth is giving much time and thought to the new work and is very optimistic about its future development. The rule for lieutenants is that they must serve for three years before they can be promoted to the rank of captain.
If a captain makes a good record he may be raised to the rank of an adjutant after seven years. This period of time gives ample opportunity for one to gain experience and become fully acquainted with all phases of the work. Sixty white persons also received their commission and will begin work with the grade of lieutenant. Adjutant G. N. Roberts spent the month of June in Washington giving instructions to the new force of assistants.

NORTH CAROLINA ODD FELLOWS
State Organization Meets In Greensboro, Aug. 12.
WHO WILL BE GRAND MASTER
Choice For Chief Office Indicated by the Executive Committee at Its Recent Meeting—Qualifications of Colonel James H. Young For Leadership in Great Fraternity Not Doubled.
BY GEORGE FRANCIS KING.
Greensboro, N. C.-This city is preparing for the forthcoming annual meeting of the North Carolina Odd Fellows, which will bring here some of the leading men of the race in the state. This fraternity has been making very progressive strides in this state, and from present indications at the forthcoming annual meeting it will keep up its record of sane legislation to meet the peculiar needs of the Afro-American people in this state. The late J. B. Catus, grand master for North Carolina, has been succeeded by a character that is eminently fitted for the head of the organization. Mr. Catus was one of the leading factors of the race in North Carolina and
PETER H. BURKE
COLONEL JAMES H. YOUNG.
was highly esteemed by both races. Until his death he was postmaster of Winton, N. C., and as a public officer he had made an enviable reputation and reflected credit upon the Negro's ability to hold such important positions.
His recent death is lamented by citizens in every section of the state. Mr. Catus was an ardent advocate of equal opportunities for the race, and especially was he active in giving the people of his state the best opportunities that they could command for their educational development. He was a trustee of Winton Normal institute and made many sacrifices in order that this institution could survive the strenuous times peculiar to all such movements during their incipient periods.
At a recent meeting of the executive committee of the Odd Fellows of North Carolina a selection for the head of the fraternity was made which met the approbation of the subordinate lodges throughout the state, and this board is being commended by leading Odd Fellows in many sections of the country for its election of Colonel James H. Young of Raleigh to fill the unexpired term of Mr. Catus. A man more competent to fill this office cannot be found in this state.
"The colonel," says a man of large affairs, "is considered by those in high authority as the best and most thoroughly equipped financier, bookkeeper and up to date manager of all our public officers." For the past twenty-five years he has admirably held an important position in the internal revenue department at Raleigh, and if political events should bring about a change affecting the colonel it will not be an easy task to readily find a man to "hold down" the job like the present incumbent.
In every movement for the uplift of the race in North Carolina for a number of years the colonel has been a guiding spirit. He possesses a kind of intellectualism and penetration of affairs which give him the power to control such forces that will work for the ultimate ascendancy of his people, plebeians and patricians alike.
Undoubtedly there will be a birth of new things for this fraternity under the guidance of the colonel. He is extricably bound up with the kind of requisites and limited enthusiasm that will stimulate the thousands of Odd Fellows in North Carolina.
The element of decay is not present in this especial organization, and from every indication the colonel will unanimously be elected the district grand master of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of North Carolina at the annual meeting, which begins here on Tuesday, Aug. 12.
Women's Clubs Doing Great Work. At the annual meeting of the Texas State Federation of Women's Clubs, recently held in San Antonio, representatives from forty-five clubs made encouraging reports on work among girls, emergency homes, rescue houses and general uplift work in the rural districts.
Conference at Little Rock For Benefit of the Colored Youth
Little Rock, Ark.-The educators of Little Rock, assisted by the teachers in all parts of the state, are preparing to make the coming session of the National Association of the Teachers of Colored Youth the greatest session in its history. The Little Rock teachers are thoroughly organized, and committees have been named and are at work. Dr. Joseph A. Booker, president of the Arkansas Baptist college, in referring to the meeting recently said: "I know of no meeting to be held this summer that is of more importance to our people and means more to us; hence all of the citizens are joining the teachers in preparing to entertain our guests.
"We are coming together for the purpose of discussing the methods of reaching our youth and fo stir in them an interest in education. We believe that there is a possibility for our young people, but they need encouragement from somewhere, and to that end we are now working."

How J. Henry Sherwood is Winning
His Spurs on Merit.
St. Paul, Minn.-J. Henry Sherwood,
well known in Masonic circles in this
and many other sections of the country,
is a native of Macon, Ga., where
he received the rudiments of his early
education.
Upon leaving the far south young
Sherwood located in St. Louis for
about a year and then he up his
residence in this city in 1895 and for
eleven years has been a clerk in the
postoffice. His activities in religious
circles have centered in the Protestant
Episcopal church. For some time he
was lay reader in charge at the St.
Philips mission.
He was initiated in Triangle lodge No. 53. F. and A. M., West Superior, Wis., Jurisdiction of Illinois, 1895. Admitted into Perfect Ashlar lodge No 4, St. Paul, a year latter. Passed the Oriental chair June 24, 1902; served as worshipful master three years and as secretary about ten years. He was elected grand secretary in 1906 and grand master in 1909, serving three
Fazza
terms. He entered the Scottish Rite June 6, 1907, and is now secretary of North Star consistory.
Mr. Sherwood succeeded in reorganizing Fezzan temple in this city in 1908 and was appointed potentate by the deputy and was elected to that position the following year, after which he served two terms as recorder and was elected imperial chief rabban 1910 at Detroit, deputy imperial potentate 1911 at Atlantic City and re-elected at Washington 1912, with the promise ringing in his ears that he would be honored with the imperial potentate-ship at Indianapolis this year.
He is a member of Bethel chapter, R. A. M., and Pilgrim commandery, Knights Templars, jurisdiction of Missouri. Noble Sherwood has been in many movements in this city during the past ten years that pointed toward the betterment of his people.
He is intensely proud of the past as well as the present achievements of his race and has great faith in its future. Young, energetic and ambitious, Mr. Sherwood is always working for the interests of Freemasonry, shrinedom and the Negro. He is an active worker for the Society For the Advancement of Colored People.
MOVING PICTURE STORY.
Achievements of a Hampton Student Portrayed in Didactic Manner. Hampton, Va.—"John Henry's Four Years at Hampton" is the title of a most interesting moving picture story of Hampton institute which has been prepared by Leigh Richmond Minor of the Hampton staff. The first exhibition of the vivid moving pictures was given recently at Hampton institute.
John Henry, who lives out in the country, is influenced by a Hampton graduate to come to the well known agricultural and industrial school for Negroes. On reaching Hampton he is shown the modern buildings and is then taken to his dormitory room. There he is given a lesson in bedmaking by his room mate. John Henry, after his work in doing various chores which tasked his stick-to-it-tiveness, enters the cabinetmaking department and in three years becomes a proficient tradesman. John Henry also learns enough of several other trades so as to be truly useful to his people back in the country districts. He is put through a short course in manual training, shoe making, harness repairing, bricklaying and upholstery. He is also taught how to plow and care for the common farm animals—pigs, chickens, horses and cows.
The Hampton institute moving pictures give an excellent presentation of the Sunday morning room inspection, battalion drill, anniversary process, life in the student dining room and every day life at Hampton. John Henry is shown as a pupil teacher at the Whittler school leading the process of youngsters as they assemble to salute the flag.
In the final scene, dealing with commencement day, Dr. Frissell presents the transformed and useful youth with a Hampton diploma. John Henry greets his parents, who have made a sacrifice so that he could get an education. The country teacher, one of Hampton's graduates, who influenced John Henry to break his home ties and go to Hampton, witnesses the happy scene.

VON DICKERSOHN TESTIMONIAL
A SUCCESS—TWENTY LADIES
HIGHLY PRAISED AND HONORED BY SCHOLARSHIP FUND.
Dr. Westbrook has removed his residence to 265 King street, and his office to Room 29, Good block. Office hours, 10-11 a. m., 2-4 p. m. Sundays
"Lifting as we climb to the skies through difficulties" is the motto that inspired twenty of Denver's prominent and progressive women, full of the altruistic spirit to look far enough into the future to seek, cultivate, develop and preserve art's flickering flame of genius, in humanity as well as to encourage and give substantial support to every self-made, sacrificing, energetic and ambitious boy or girl who is struggling and really wants to make good in this world. It was for this purpose the entertainment was planned and for this purpose the public so generally responded to the satisfaction and glory of all. "It was an honor to be called a Denver citizen," as said Bishop Walters, "to be identified with a community so big, broad and generous-hearted, as to give public demonstration as was witnessed Thursday night, shows that Denver is very much alive to her best interest and future expectations." Neither time, space nor words will permit us to justly narrate the full details and good impressions of that very extraordinary program, but our duty compels us to briefly make mention of the participants. The Azalia Hackley Choral Club, under the leadership of Mr. A. A. Waller in "Bring Branches from Forest" and "Now Joy Shall be in Cottage Poor," did exceedingly well as the audience manifested. Mr. Waller felt proud of his work as shown upon that occasion. The duet by Misses Hazel and Ruby Ames was a revelation to the audience as to what can be accomplished by young people started and trained right. Miss Thrashley was their instructress (a lady of color). The trio by Messrs. Jackson, Holley and Wolfskill was marvelous in artistic, romantic ragtime as well as classic singing. Three times they were compelled to respond to encores. Mr. Wolfskill made the hit of the evening by his unique and clever impersonations. The sextette, Medames, Bush, Pinn, Spires, Miss Willis and Messrs. Jones and M. T. Jackson, set the audience wild with their good old-time folk songs, responding to two encores. The piano solo by Miss Nola Townsend, "The Eolienne Harp," was well interpreted, excellently executed and demonstrated her to be a mistress of technique and harmony. Mr. Harrison Miller sang a French war song well. It was a trifle low for Mr. Miller's sweet tenor voice. Mrs. Hattle Hickman had the church in a constant roar, because of her ludicrous reading and witty presentation. Miss Marie Starks rendered "Valse Arabesque" in such an impressive and classic manner that a murmur of hearty commendation was given her at the completion of her rendition. She has a bright future. Mrs. Lillian Jones in her solo work showed up in a much better form than ever before. Her interpretation, her selection and almost faultless enunciation was very evident and her praise was ardently given her. "Prelude in C Sharp Minor" as interpreted by Valoure Spralin was simply grand, and moreover he felt and was thoroughly in tune with his author's soul, making a complete musical symmetry in the musical realm. His selection as an encore was very classic and well chosen.
With much pride we publish the names of the ladies who netted $74.40, which amount is now in the bank: Mesdames Lulu Muse, T. Lyons, Cora Jackson, Ella Starns, Mildred Abernathy, Mattie Patrick, Lillie Moore, Carrie Waller, Mary E. Wade, Lizzie Douglass, J. L. Burnett, Cora O'Briant, Matilda Jacobs, Bettie Hardy, Lucy Coleman, A. E. Reynolds, and Miss Howard, with Mesdames Josephine Cassells, Treasurer; Mabel Fallings, Secretary, and Gertie N. Ross, Chairman. The ladies have been highly praised for their devotion, diligence and accomplishment. The Star congratulates them.

MOTHERS! HAVE YOUR CHILDREN WORMS?
Are they feverish, restless, nervous, irritable, dizzy, or constipated? Do they continually pick their nose or grind their teeth? Have they cramping pains, irregular and ravenous appetite? These are all signs of worms. Worms not only cause your child suffering, but stunt its mind and growth. Give "Kickapoo Worm Killer" at once. It kills and removes the worms, improves your child's appetite, regulates stomach, liver and bowels. The symptoms disappear and your child is made happy and healthy., as nature intended. All druggists or by mail, 25c.
