Denver Star

-Let All Colored Americans and Friends Protest to Washington Against Post Office Segregation The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR.

The court now holds the civil rights act wholly unconstitutional, on the ground that, as the purpose of Congress was plainly to make one law for the whole country, and as this purpose failed for want of power in Congress to apply it to the states it failed in toto; that the court cannot, or will not, assume that Congress would have made such a law for the federal jurisdiction outside the states, by itself, if aware of its incapacity to apply it alike to all places; and, accordingly, to allow it to operate outside the states would be, in effect, to make a law by judicial decree which Congress did not make and may not have been disposed to make. THE TESTING FIRE We are neither ashamed nor disgraced nor apologize because we are negroes. We are proud of that fact. We ask no favor nor invite no discrimination because we are negroes. We simply desire justice, because we are honest, honorable, peaceful and industrious men. To demand more would be tryanical and to take less would be to play the part of a truckler, timeserver or a trimmer. To all honest, honorable, peaceful and industrious men, certain respect, privileges and protection is attached and courtesies shown. Among their rights is the inalienable right to go up and down the public streets unmolested and protected against advertised insults, as well as the right to treated as other men and not be made a conspicuous target. Those rights belong to everyone, even the humblest and to exert and enforce them may cause the timeserving and sycophonic friends to desert to you but compromise principal, minimize no form of injustice and fail not to make definite and certain protests against restrictions at the same time appealing for fair play. If it is wrong matters not whether an individual, corporation, state or the national government practices it. It is equally as wrong. If we are men, let us quit ourselves like men or lay down and grin like an possum. Common respect and decency is due every true man and loyal citizen. Will you require it. The Wiping Out Of Sumner's Civil Rights Bill. Able Anaylysis of Baneful Decision by U. S. Supreme Court. Others than the Colored people of the country are greatly interested in the recent decision of the United States Supreme Court—in the case of Butts vs. Merchants & Miners Transportation Company—which holds that the civil rights act of March 1, 1872, is wholly unconstitutional. This law, commonly known as Sumner's act, declared the equal rights of all persons throughout the jurisdiction of the United States to the accommodation of inns, public conveyances on land or water and theatres, forbidding any discrimination on grounds of race, color or previous servitude. In the civil rights cases in 1883, the court held the act so far unconstitutional as to be inoperative within state limits, on the ground that Congress has no power under the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments, or otherwise, to apply such police regulation to the people of the states. This decision upheld the right of the southern states, for example, to pass their "Jim Crow" laws. The question remained of the validity of the law over other federal territory and over American vessels on waters outside state limits. The Butts case presented and turned upon this question: THE A. M. E. CHURCH REVIEW. Current Number Covers Many Topics. Praise For Dr. Ransom. The current number of the A. M. E. Church Review, edited by Dr. Reverdy C. Ransom, is a literary gem. The contents cover a wide variety of interesting articles written by a group of persons whose versatility of thought and intellectual bent presage high literary culture. The influence of the Review as a molder of helpful sentiment for the denomination and as an advocate of high moral and Christian ethics can hardly be overestimated. It hews to the line, never missing the mark. Credit is due Dr. Ransom for the splendid array of good things spread before the readers in this number. Powerful as a preacher, fearless as an advocate of equal rights for Afro-American citizens, an intellectual giant, Dr. Ransom is doing a great work for the African Methodist Episcopal church in particular and the various religious denominations in general. On the front cover of the magazine is the likeness of Mrs. Alice M. Dunbar, who contributes her first article as head of the woman's department. The subject of Mrs. Dunbar's article is, "What Has the Church to Offer the Men of Today?" Would that this article could be read by every minister, layman or religious worker in whatever line of Christian work. It is instructive and full of suggestions for future review and action. Among some of the other subjects and their authors are: "The Fifteenth Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation," by Dr. Charles W. Ellott; "The Negro In the Higher Altitudes of Music In This Country and Throughout the World," by H. Lawrence Freeman; "The First Congress of Colored Women," by Hon. Richard T. Greener; "The Present Day Opportunity of the Public School," by Professor William E. Guy; "Training the Voters of Tomorrow," Professor William L. Bulkley; "The Minister and Pastoral Visitation," Bishop B. F. Lee, D. D.; "The Minister as a Business Man For the Church," Rev. C. H. Steplean, D. D.; "Turco-Armenian," Professor A. Dumas Deianey, and "The Up to Date Sunday School—How to Organize It and How to Conduct It." Rev. Henry P. Jones, A. M. "The Vision," by Rev. Robert E. Ford; editorials by the editor, department of social science by Dr. George E. Haynes; "Within the Sphere of Letters," by Dr. G. W. Forbes of the Boston public library, makes reference to many men of letters whose books and music inspire one to high ideals and active endeavor. Largest Mutual Benefit Society. The Southern Beneficial league in New York city is the largest in number and strongest in finance of any organization of its kind composed of colored men from the south in any of the northern states. The financial membership numbers 628. The league was organized twenty-four years ago. Its bank account at the last annual report was $10,000. Paul Hargrave is president of the league. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPT. 6, 1913 Master of Ceremonies, Members of the Peoples' Sunday Alliance, Fellow Graduates, Ladies and Gentlemen: The foremost question which is underlying some of the most important legislative measures today is, what will be the most logical solution of the so-called negro problem. To my opinion the favorable solution of the negro question depends almost wholly upon the negro youth, himself, and it,will be affected by the first three terms in the above title: Aspiration, Efficiency, Co-operation. Today we must have our ideals placed high. We must strive to gain supremacy in intellectual as well as physical attainments. The wonderful achievements to accomplished since our forefathers days of slavery should serve as a strong incentive to urge the youth of today to explore and conquer new fields of endeavors. No family, no nation, no race has ever been truly successful who did not seek to elevate themselves from the conditions enveloping their predecessors and endeavor to reach perfection. The time for the idle bubble of superfluous pleasure has passed. We must become active in commercial lines. Our lives should have an object, we will be compelled to have an aim. Having hitched our wagon to a star, as it were, we must produce results. And pray, what time in the past has been so copiously supplied with the instruments for attaining our ideal. With the centuries of learning at our disposal, we have every reason to face the issues of today squarely, cope with our adversaries and secure our rights. Fellow graduates our diplomas it is true show scholarship, but with them a new and important duty devolves upon us. We must be ever ready to defend and protect our race, aiding it in its struggle for civil freedom and endeavoring to prevent encroachment upon our rights as embodied in the Constitution. In fine, we must quit ouselves like men; be strong. The conditions are now tending towards the end when the business man will not ask to what rank of society do your parents belong, what are their estimated possessions. But rather he will inquire of you directly what are you yourself capable of doing. To answer this question it is necessary that we become efficient in our several vocations. My dear friends, having secured our own race thoroughly competent men and women versed in the various professions and trades, it should be your pleasure as well your duty to give them your loyal snupport. The instability, injustice and confusion now existing in politics has taken away one of our strongest isles of safety. The past and present attitude of the leading political parties can no doubt serve as a criterion of their neglect in the future. Co-operation is our only hope. The time is not far hence when we will patronize only those of our own race engaged in business, or those of the opposite race who give our people employment. The sooner we realize that in "unity there is strength," the sooner will our progress as a race be assured. With accelerated action to our now rapid strides toward success, the cloud, the negro problem will disappear and the sunshine of equality will forever reign. I thank you. City News.

To The Colored Womens Clubs Colorado and Jurisdiction Not only are we convinced that we have a place in the progressive, moral and educational uplift of this commonwealth, but as we have the right of "sufferage," we can fill our places politically. Therefore, I ask that among the first things taken up by the Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado and Jurisdiction is the Post Office segregation act. I heartily endorse the stand taken by the Denver Star and trust that each president of the various clubs throughout the jurisdiction will urge upon their members to sign this petition, thereby showing the strength of our women. Signed: Mrs. Mary H. Baker, President of Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado and Jurisdiction. [We are glad to know that the State President has been aroused, now let the various clubs follow their leader. Ed.] Editor "Denver Star," Sir:-- "An Observer" should be thanked for his timely letter, however, some of the persons who have attended the Paris Theatre may have been, like myself, strangers who are here on a visit, and had not heard of the discriminating notice. Furthermore, when a theatre exhibits pictures illustrative of The Tempest, and the life of the Empress Josephine for the small fee of five cent the student of Shakespeare and history finds it hard forgo the enjoyment of such a real literary treat because of his color. Theatres, like streets, are public places, and if the negro refuses to yield the last inch of ground on which he is forced to stand, a fair-minded person culd hardly term such action "self-respect thrown to the winds." I am, etc., Claude McKay. THE DAWN In Georgia and in Alabama, the two governors have refused to pardon a white man or commute his sentence to life imprisonment simply because he was white, if his crime merited punishment. And now North Carolina has joined the list of fa.r and square governors of the South. We print an article showing North Carolina's stand. Releigh, N. C., Aug. 24---Grady Lane, the first white man to be sentenced to death in this state for killing a negro, awaits execution on Nov. 20 in the state prison. Lane was convicted in Carthage for the murder of Geo. McCain, a colored mail clerk. During the trial, Will Burley, a negro, confessed the killing, but proved afterwards he had confessed under threats from Lane. Lane was found guilty less than an hour after the jury had retired. FIVE CENTS A COPY. FIRST STATE TO BAR SLAVERY NOT ANTAGONISTIC TO RACE Ohio has the honor of having the leading university in America for the higher education of the colored, race Wilberforce university, near Xenia, in Greene county, which was established before the civil war, and is not only the greatest but the oldest institution of learning of this character in the country. Ohio's attitude toward slavery and the Negro race has been unique from the beginning. It was the first state admitted to the Union in which slavery was prohibited before it was first settled, and yet it is the only state in the Union with a constitution that says that a man must be white to have the right to vote, and only last year Ohio refused by majority vote to remove this joker, "white," from its organic law. Yet the state is not antagonistic to the Negro, for it is one of the very few northern states that support a state university exclusively for colored students. While there are numerous small colleges, there are only about a half dozen great universities in America for the higher education of the Negro race—Atlanta university, Fisk at Nashville, Howard at Washington, Shaw at Raleigh, Leland at New Orleans and Wilberforce at Xenia, and Wilberforce stands at the head of the list. Bellering that the taxpayers of Ohio should know more about Wilberforce university and the use it is making of the money appropriated by the state, a representative of the auditor of state's office attended the recent commencement and inspected every department of the institution, investigated the financial affairs, economy of management and quality of instruction and endeavored to find out whether its work is a real and permanent benefit to the colored race. It was an agreeable surprise to find an utter absence of caste and clannishness at Wilberforce. There are no artificial distinctions created by wealth. There is no indulgence in social prodigality, and the students are a homogeneous body, all enjoying the same privileges and opportunities and the necessary annual expense is so small that one marvels how such economy is possible. We hear so much about Negro illiteracy in America that few realize what remarkable progress the race has made, especially during the past score of years. When we contemplate the past condition of the Afro-American and consider the blighting effects mentally and morally of 250 years of servitude, when we remember that slaves were treated as animals and deprived of all educational opportunities and that in most southern states it was a crime to teach a Negro his letters, and even in the north they were excluded from the public schools, it is truly remarkable the progress the race has made. But while the Negro was deprived for many years of public school advantages in Ohio he was not lacking in a desire to educate his children, and the first private Negro school in Ohio was opened in Cincinnati in 1820, but soon failed. It was re-opened in 1832 and was largely conducted by students from the Lane seminary. The seminary authorizes prohibited the teaching of Negro pupils by students of Lane, and fifty-one students withdrew from the seminary and entered Oberlin college. Through their influence Oberlin was opened to Negro students in 1835, and James Bradley, a Negro of Cincinnati who entered Oberlin college soon after, was the first Ohio colored college student in the history of the state. Oberlin has the honor of having graduated more colored students than any other college for whites in the north. The first move to furnish a seminary of learning for the colored race in Ohio originated with Daniel A. Payne, a self educated Negro of Charleston, S. C. As a result of his efforts Union seminary, near Columbus, was organized in 1843. That Payne was one of the great benefactors of his race and had rare foresight is shown by the fact that the school was started on the manual training plan. Union seminary by reason of location and other circumstances made slow growth, but it was the ploneer and contributed largely to the founding of Wilberforce university and was finally in 1833 consolidated with the latter institution.

Not Much Heard of Maryland Body Doing Effective Work. Relay, Md. - The work of business leagues in cities, as a rule, receives much favorable mention in our weekly papers, but those in rural communities, composed almost entirely of farmers, are seldom mentioned. This seeming omission, however, is not because the rural business organization is not doing good work, but rather on account of lack of opportunity to get their matter to the papers. The Patapsco Business league is the organization which we now desire present to the public. It is composed of farmers residing near this place, a few miles beyond the city limits of Baltimore. It is doing a most praise-worthy work. The members of this league pool themselves together to buy fertilizer, seed and other farm necessities in large lots and are thus enabled to secure their supplies at much lower rates. General co-operation seems to be the watchword among them. Not one of the members is assessed on the tax books of the state for less than $3,000, and several are rated as high as $20,000. Each member has a farm ranging from 50 to 500 acres. Every man has a fine home. The Patapsco Business league was organized by thirteen men on the jawn surrounding the home of Mr. C. C. Fitzgerald on July 4, 1909. Its organization followed a suggestion made by Mr. Spencer Patterson, a prosperous truck farmer of the vicinity. The president officers are: C. C. Fitzgerald, president; John H. Jackson and Joseph Williams, vice presidents; George M. Patterson, secretary, and William Ware, treasurer. President Fitzgerald is regarded as an authority on civil and testamentary law. He has avoided publicity, however, being a very modest man. Among the many estates that he has settled are those of the late William Hall, who left $78,000; the Maryland property of Frederick Douglass, the estates of the late John Henry Butler and James W. Dansbury, and he is just finishing the settlement of the estate of the late Alexander Hemsley, who left $19,000. Mr. Fitzgerald is a native of Johnson City, Tenn. He was educated at Berea college, Kentucky, and the Howard university law school in Washington. WILMINGTON REPUBLICANS MAKING GREAT CAMPAIGN Hon. John O. Hopkins Assured of Majority Vote For Councilman. Wilmington. Del.—The voters of this town are taking great interest in the coming municipal election, which will be held on Saturday, June 7. The colored citizens of the Sixth ward will again have the opportunity of placing one of their number in the city council. The man for whom they will vote is the Hon. John O, Hopkins, who at the primary elections in May defeated two Republican candidates by a majority of forty-eight votes. There are 1,300 Republican voters in the Sixth ward, and of this number over 800 are Afro-Americans. Already A. HON. JOHN O. HOPKINS. more than enough white men have pledged Mr Hopkins their support to assure his election. If members of the race are even to show their loyalty to one of their number at an opportune time let them do so on Saturday, June 7, by casting their votes as one man for John O. Hopkins for city councilman. All indications point to his election by a big majority. Dr. Hopkins is a native of Chestertown, Md., but has been a resident here nearly all of his life. He is an associate in the drug business of Dr. Conwell Banton. Both men are well and favorably known among both races in Wilmington and throughout the state. After graduating from the Howard high school Dr. Hopkins entered the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, from which he graduated with the class of 1908. It is a noteworthy fact that each of the six Afro-American members of the class of 1908 became proprietors of business establishments of their own within one year after their graduation. Public meetings have been held every night this week, beginning on Monday, June 2. They have been well attended and characterized by much enthusiasm and interest favorable to Mr. Hopkins. The only other Afro-American who has served as a member of the local city council was the late Hon. Thomas Postes. The results of Saturday's election will be awaited with state wide interest.

Phila deiphia.—The fourteenth annual meetin: of the National Negro Busl- ness Teazue, which finished its three days” session in this city Friday, will go dOwu in history as the most suc- cessfl meeting ever held up to this time. It was successful in point of at- tendance, interesting program and as to arriuzements for the entertainment of guests The Negro business men of this city sustained the traditional reputation of Philadelphians for hospitality. Begin- ning with the opening session at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, there was not A dull session during the meeting nor a moment when Interest and ear- nestness was not intense. Too much peeise for the success attending the lo- ¢al arrangements cannot be accorded Charles H. Brooks, chairman of the committce of arrangements, and his energetic assistants on that committee. Of course the greatest interest cen- tered in the address of Dr. Booker T, Washington, which was delivered Wednesday night at the Academy of Music. ‘The speaker when he arose faced « veritable sea of faces. Every available space in that vast amphi- theater was occupied by men and wo- men of every nationality, eager to catch the inspiring words of the race's greatest leader. The «pplanse, tumultuous and spon- taneous. which greeted him told better than any word description how high they held him and how deep rooted is the coniidence of the race reposed in him. Five thousand people sat before him, at times convulsed with laughter at his humorous sayings, at times Speechless in admiration, again en- thraDed by his forcible eloquence. ‘The doctor drove home to the hearts of his creat audience his arguments In favor of the necessity of character buildin. industrial and commercial de- Yelopment within the race and the cul- tivating of the respect of the best white citizens. “Hy defense of his race was the strongest yet heard coming from his Ups, “and his optimism—his express. led Confidence In the belief that pres- ent handicaps simply constitute an {n- centive to a forward movement which must eventually batter down every wall erected by race prejudice—was In. | fections, He reviewed the record of |the race made during the fifty years of freedom which this year marks. He presented a brilliant panorama of the race's progress from abject slavery and miserable poverty to a free people with possessions amounting to over $70,000,000. He figuratively drew aside the curtain which separates the |miture to show where the achieve- ments of the first fifty years of free- dom, now almost in retrospect, would land the race when the century of free. dom had been recorded. The famed constructive Negro statesman was at his best. Every word he uttered went straight home to abide with his audience as a constant prompter to highest achieve ments, And when he concluded and sat down amid prolonged applause— iapplause whose spontaneity showed bow thoroughly the speaker had his andienee with him—every one in that vast assemblage fejt that here was a Moses, with divine inspiration, who had been sent to lead his people up and ‘out of the slough of despondency to the high plane of useful activity, 2 leader who means to make his race dwell more upon the permanent good which can be achieved rather than npon the*obstructions in the form of unjust race.discrimination and restric. tion whieh he at no time justifies, but condemns, and which, at best, can be but @ temporary hindrance to a race determined to succeed | Following the calling of the national [body to order by Dr. A.

"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes.

NATIONAL PETITION AGAINST JIM CROW AND COLOR----SEGREGATION BY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT Read Citizens, sign your name and address and mail to the editor of this paper. To the President of the United State Hon. Woodrow Wilson, White House, Washington, D. C. Sir: This is to certify that we, the undersigned, are surprised and indignant that under your administration there should be any rules made by members of your cabinet to segregate employees of the national government by race or color. We protest against this as a plain insult, public degradation, and insufferable injury to Colored Americans, the establishment of caste in this free Republic. We petition you to reverse, prevent and forbid any such movement by your bureau chiefs, in accord with your promise of fair, friendly, just and Christian treatment of your Colored fellow-citizens. This movement is being fostered by all the leading Colored Journals.

Succinct Account of the Busy and Useful Life of the Secretary of the Tuskegee Institute—Educated at Wiley University and Baptized With the Grace of Modesty. By Dr. ROBERT E. JONES, New Orleans. The church has been influenced by the commercial spirit of the day to require results for funds or effort invested. This is legitimate. "Does It Pay?" is no mean question. The returns may not always be in actual dollars and cents, but there must be adequate returns to justify the expenditures. To this requirement there can be no objection. If this principle were applied to the work of the Freedmen's Aid society it would have no reason to be ashamed of the men and women who have been sent forth with benediction of the schools fostered by the society. It would be a long list were we to write down the names of all who have made good. We name but one at this time. His picture appears with this short article—the Hon. Emmett J. Scott. He is a product of Wiley university, Marshall, Tex. He is proud of Wiley university, and Wiley university is proud of him. A thoroughly capable but retiring, much loved individual is he, baptized with the grace of modesty. Few men of any race have written the history that is his in a like period of years. He is a man capable of long hours of hard work under great pressure. He is the executive secretary of the Tuskegee institute. Those who know his work best appreciate him most. He is A. EMMETT J. SCOTT. the corresponding secretary of the National Negro Business league. In this organization his influence is linked nation wide with that of his great chief, Dr. Booker T. Washington. Mr. Scott is a student of world questions and is therefore appropriately secretary of the international conference on the Negro. These three positions, requiring initiative, tact, resourcefulness and high intelligence, represent but a part of the activities of this man, who in the coming day will be reckoned as one of the most useful men of his race. The Freedmen's Aid society holds Mr. Scott up as one of the possibilities of the race. Does the work of our schools pay? If Wiley university had done nothing more than have made possible the career of Emmett J. Scott that alone would have justified its existence and the cost of maintenance. But Texas has more sons to offer for Christian service. Who knows but that Texas has another prince in waiting for a newer day? In order to prepare the coming prince Wiley must be kept open. And for the reasons that Wiley must be kept open, for the very same reason must all of our Freedmen's Aid schools be kept open. EVIDENCES OF PROGRESS. All Classes Benefit by Carnegie Library at Biddle University. By GEORGE F. KING. Charlotte, N. C.—There is a keen interest manifested by the Afro-Americans in this city for good literature. This unusual mental activity is a conspicuous evidence of the trend of the race here to become influenced by great Christian agencies that have molded other progressive races. There are hundreds of public libraries throughout the southland, but Afro-Americans are denied the use of them for such knowledge as they might wish to obtain through book lore. One can readily appreciate existing conditions that have impeded the Afro-American's material advancement in the realm of good literature. The class of books that will inspire our youth is not so easily procured in many sections of the country, and because of such there is a mental degeneration in too many instances, and a poor conception of ennobling ideals is also the result. NEW DIRECTORY FOR PUBLISHERS Business End of National Negro Press Association. YIELDS SPLENDID RESULTS.

One of the splendid moves, which is a distinct accomplishment in the interest of the Press association, is the work of the corresponding secretary in the compilation of a newspaper directory. This book, which is now in the hands of the printer, will be issued from the press about June 15. Mr. Henry Allen Boyd of this city has notified the president, Mr. R. W. Thompson of Washington, and the chairman of the executive committee, Mr. N. B. Dodson, that proofs of the first two pages of the book have been read, corrected and approved. Interesting indeed is the matter contained in the publication, which, in reality, is the first complete volume of facts and statistics bearing directly upon our newspapers, editors, printers, publishers and bankers of the United States. Secretary Boyd states that the publication will contain a complete set of postal laws and regulations governing second class mail matter, which will be of vital importance to publications seeking admission into the mails as second class matter. The book gives, as far as could be ascertained, the name of every newspaper, magazine or publication issued in, for or by the race, with the respective state and city in which it is published. The name of the editor and manager, date of establishment and circulation are also given as well as the number of papers published in each state. In addition to this, the author has prepared an exceptionally well prepared list of printers' supply houses, which furnish paper, ink, type, typesetting machinery, engravers and lithographers. There is also an accurate list of the banks, bankers and concerns doing a banking business. This is regarded by the compiler and author as vital, in that it will give the local newspapers an opportunity to know where the financial institutions of the race are located. Secretary Boyd declares that already applications have come in for 300 copies of the directory. The first books issued will be sent to the officers, members of the executive committee and members of the Press association. The next lot to the business men and bankers in their order named. The publication is to be limited, but the offer to the members of the Press association will entail only the actual expense of the book. A personal letter has already been sent to the association members stating the object and virtues of the National Negro Newspaper Directory, Publishers and Printers' Guide. The mechanical work on the book is being done by the National Baptist Publishing board at Nashville, Tenn., of which Corresponding Secretary Henry Allen Boyd is one of the officials. Well Edited Denominational Paper. The Voice of Missions, edited by the Rev. Dr. J. W. Rankin and published by the missionary department of the A. M. E. church, is filling a large place in the literary work of the denomination. The May issue is finely illustrated with striking portraits of the late Bishop William B. Derrick, scenes in Sierra Leone, a group of West African soldiers, native Africans weaving cotton, Chief Kububu, a picture of Rev. R. H. Hatchett and the likeness of Senior Bishop Henry M. Turner, retired, who for the time being takes the place left vacant by the death of Bishop Derrick. The articles are many, varied and interesting. IMPORTANT COMING EVENT. Features of Program For Closing Week at Fisk University. Nashville, Tenn.-The school year at Fisk university, in this city, will soon come to a close. Active preparations are being made for the annual commencement, which will begin on Wednesday, June 11. Five members of the graduating class have been selected to take part on the program of the public exercises. The commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, a member of the board of trustees. Aside from the general interest which is always manifested in the events of commencement week, there are two features which are attracting considerable attention. The most important of the two is the trustees' report with reference to the endowment fund which the institution has been for the past two years struggling to raise. Every effort is being put for ward to complete the fund of $300,000 by June 1.

Death came into the home of Attorney and Mrs. W. B. Townsend of 2816 High street, and stole their only daughter, Miss Nola, Saturday morning. Miss Townsend was one of the best liked and most popular young girls of this city and had bright hopes for an exceptional musical career. In church and at school she was considered the brainiest in her class. Her sweet disposition, gentle manners and beautiful character favorably impressed everyone with whom she came in contact. Her demise causes a distinct loss in the musical and social circles. Everyone who knew her loved her and the whole community grieve because of her loss. The Star extends its deepest, heartfelt sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Townsend in this hour of bereavement. The funeral was from the house, Tuesday afternoon. The floral emblems and beautiful flowers were given in abundance by friends who surrounded them in the hour of trial. MOTHERS! HAVE YOUR CHIL DREN WORMS?

Westbrook stood before the crowded house at Scott Church Sunday night and presented such convincing facts concerning the great work done by the Educational Society connected with the church, that the audience were spellbound for the whole time of his address. They soon realized their responsibility and gave $16 for the education of some boy or girl. Dr. Westbrook and Miss Coleman were warmly congratulated. Mr. Lightner and Mrs. Miller were in charge of the rally, together with the officers of the Sunday School.

It is the intention of this paper to publish all your news most willingly, but the practice of publishing names in articles we must discourage, as names are not necessary, or as guests of honor or winners of prizes. Then, too, names are so apt to be wrong, and in order to treat all alike we make this rule. Some wish to pay; we do not wish to publish even under those conditions. There are many other reasons and we hope the public will clearly understand. After an illness of six weeks, Mr. Howard Troutman, one of Denver's pioneer citizens and leading colored contractor, passed away early Monday morning. He was born in Paris, Bourbon county, Kentucky, April 1, 1856. In his early manhood was married to Miss Susie Davenport. In 1880 he started West, settling first in Kansas and in '81 arrived in Denver and later joined by his wife and baby girl. He began work at his trade in partnership with Mr. Wm. Barnett, and in a very short while became among Denver's leading contractors. Many of Denver's finest residences are monuments of their ability. He was a member of the Knights of Pythias and at the time of his death was vice chancellor of Progress Lodge No. 12. Besides his widow, he leaves to mourn his loss three daughters, Mrs. Harry Barber, Mrs. Morgan Jackson and Miss Geraldine Troutman and five sons, James, Lynwood, Howard, Elmer and Thomas Troutman. Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock from Zion Baptist church, under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias.
