EUREKA SMOK
GRAND SUCCESS
Exciting and Full of Interest
Everybody was filled with skepticism about the class of entertainment, which would be given at the Eureka hall, Tuesday night by Messrs. Eugene Andrews and Wm. Ratley. But everybody was surprised when they found that the decorum was first-class and the congenial representative crowd thoroughly entered into the contest. Friends of both of the contestant were rooting and applauding the mere mention of their names. The excitement was great at 10:30 p. m., when Manager Eugene Andrews announced the starting of the wrestling match. Messrs. John Carrie, the referee was introduced, then Joe Lambert and Howard McGinnis, "Bud" Thomas' seconds and Scottie Williams Dan Strauthers second, all of whom received great applause. Messrs. Chas. White and Frank Burnley were elected time-keepers. The ring was arranged and each of the contestants received an ovation with Buddie Thomas as the favorite. The men clinched and after wrestling six minutes Strauthers scored one down. The rooters yelled, the orchestra played and the liviliest spirit prevailed. Mr. Jesse Scott was introduced as the champion heavyweight, who desired a match. The next part of the wrestling match sent the temperature of the crowd to fever heat and and the greatest demonstration was made when they clinched for the second time and after much hard wrestling and many down by both men, who were working for their lives, the second part was declared a draw and the contest given to Dan Strauthers. Pandemoninm then reigned and only quiet was restored when Scottie Williams and "Knockout" Brown had three three minute rounds. Dancing then followed and a habpy time tripping the light fantastic until a wee hour, was indulged in. No vulgarity, no uncouthness, every, lady and gentlemen felt quite at ease at this event. The young men deserved a larger crowd than visited as they have made a new epoch in evening entertaining. They have been asked to repeat the evening's event of joy and pleasure.
To the Race Loving Women and Men of the United States.
The Constitutional League of Oklahoma with Lawyer William Harrison of Oklahoma City as its leading attory, is contesting with vigor the "Jim Crow Laws" of Oklahoma. He will, the last of November or the first of December bring before the United States Supreme Court the case of McCabe et. al vs. The Atchison Topeka Santa Fe Rv. Co., et al.
We are informed that jurist say that the Oklahoma case is the best prepared of its kind, of any case yet put before the United States Supreme Court, and that it will now have to meet the issue squarely. There is one feature of this case that will be settled which will effect all of the Negroes in the United State and that is the Interstate Passenger Law. If he succeeds it will put an end to all 'Jim Crowism,' so far as Inter-State Passengers are concerned. Hence we hereby appeal to every liberty loving woman, man and friend of the Negro race in this country to make a contribution to the expense of fighting this case. We think it is high time, if Negroes want liberty, they should be willing to pay something towards it.
A few race loving women in the Oklahoma League, led by the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, F.D., who is now pastor of the Mt. Carmel Baptist church Washington, D.C., have made great sacrifice to bring the case through lower courts to its present stage and Mr. Harrison has practically given his service for nothing; but must be rewarded. We are informed that two able Constitutional lawyers of Boston and New York will assist in this case. Theretore let every one who is interested send at least $1.00.
All contribution to be sent to Rev. W.H. Jernagin, D. D., 420 Que street, Washington, D. C., who will receipt you for the same. He is a reputable, straight forward christian gentleman, and will make an honest report of all money sent him.
If persons making contribution do not object, their names will be published in the leading papers of their State.
Yours for Justice,

"To The Stars Through Difficulties."
Madam T. D. Perkins Rises Through in Business Circles Is Thoroughly Race Woman. Studious, Ambitious and Charitable. Widely known In All States.
If a search was made among the prominent men and women of Denver for a self deserving person, whose life would serve to cheer, stimulate and inspire enthusiasm into one who is desponding through distrust of his own abilities or to reveal to any one who is puzzled to discover the path to success and usefulness, the art of "getting on or making good" to the goal of his or her wishes—nine out of every ten persons would select our subject of mention, Mrs. T. D. Perkins. Ten the women that her glory lay in her hair. Mme. Perkins' travels soon made her a keen connoissner of humanity, particularly the Negro; his life, aims, conditions, ideas and imperfection. Her experiences made her sympathetic, charitable, forgiving, scientific precise yet open and ranks, careful of the least detail when connected with business. The doctrine of race consciousness and unselfishness soon took possession of the madame. She employed many Denver women and girls to

years ago unknown, outside of Denver and unthought of in Denver, little or no attention was paid to her even in her own circles. But armed with a faith that would not shrink, a determination that would not yield, an ambition that believed all things possible before her iron will and with a brain ever active and alert and a disposition peculiar and biased in business directions, she entered the development of the human hair trade.

For this purpose it did her well to cultivate her specialty. "Kind some new want of society—some fertile source of profit or honor—some unknown thing in business whose virgin soil is yet unbroken, and there stick and grow," was her motto. To get rid of your wares, whether material or immaterial—dry good or professional advice—you must get your name into everybody's mouth and to do this there is nothing like a specialty for for the vehicle. In there days of competition she soon found that to achieve high success she must do her own thinking and above all, cultivate pliableness and versatility.

Session Held In Rocky Mount Was Largely Attended.
Forty-sixth Annual Gathering of State Religious and Educational Convention Notable For Harmony and Enthusiasm—Workers Manifest Desire to Be Helpful.
By GEORGE F. KING.
Rocky Mount, N. C.—The forty-sixth annual meeting of the State Baptist Educational and Missionary convention of North Carolina held here the last week in October (beginning Oct. 28), was attended by hundreds of delegates and visitors from most all sections of the state. The reports of the general officers and those of the representatives from the various churches to the convention were very encouraging.
The success of the denomination in this state among Afro-Americans is due to intelligent leadership coupled with the thrift and industry of a large constituency of followers. The sessions of the convention were marked by harmony and a desire on the part of all concerned to work for larger missionary and educational results in the churches and schools throughout the state.
This splendid religious organization has as its president Dr. A. W. Pegues

of Raleigh, who is eminently fitted for the office. Being a man possessing every qualification of a safe leader and enjoying the confidence of the better element of both races in North Carolina, he is doing a great work of uplift which is bound to count for higher Christian manhood and citizenship.

There must be original thought intelligence, quick-wittedness, inventiveness, adaptability, and promptness of decision, directing and utilizing your unused energy by finding and making markets wherever there are none. In her calling there were and are bold, keen, subtle-witted' women, fertile in expedients and devices, who are perpetually invently new ways of buying cheaply, underselling or attracting custom, so it keeps her ever on the alert, constantly switching into new tracks and shaping herself for every exigency.

the world for Christ, he has an excellent way of bringing things to pass for the good of the denomination. Associated with Dr. Pegues are such national characters as Dr. C. S. Brown, corresponding secretary of the convention; Dr. J. J. World, treasurer; Dr. E. E. Smith, recording secretary of the convention, and a strong legion of active ministers. Dr. Pegues is one of the ablest theologians and educators in the state. For a number of years he was dean of the theological department of Shaw university, which position he resigned to become the supervisor of the state deaf, dumb and blind institute for colored youths in Raleigh. This institution, largely because of his ability and the generosity of the state, is the foremost institution of its kind in the south. This type of leadership has placed the Afro-American Baptists of North Carolina on a footing that reveals the ability of its members to succeed in matters of great importance to the denomination.
Among the prominent speakers on the program were: Dr. N. F. Roberts, dean of the theological department of Shaw university; Dr. S. N. Voss, Rev. C. E. Aspen, Rev. W. T. Coleman, D. D., M. D.; Revs. O. S. Bullock, G. W. Watkins, Drs. E. M. Brawley, A. B. Vincent, Revs. C. H. Williamson, G. W. Moore, M. A. Talley, D. J. Avery, J. L. S. Holloman and Dr. W. M. Alex ander of Baltimore, corresponding secretary Lott Carey convention. The jubilee remarks on the fifty years of freedom by Revs. R. H. Harper, Thomas Parker and "Father Jackson" were inspiring.
Influence of the Piney Woods School.
Lawrence C. Jones, founder and principal of the Piney Woods Country Life school near Braxton, Miss., is one of the most energetic and deserving of the younger men of the race engaged in educational work in the rural sections of the south. He has made the community about Braxton feel the uplift which comes from education.

Church Holds Double Celebration.
The pastor and members of the Nazarine Congregational church in Brooklyn celebrated the fortieth anniversary of the founding of the church the last week in October and concluded with an observance of the third anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev. A. P. Miller, whom the church called as pastor three years ago. The late A. J. Henry had been pastor of this congregation for eighteen years at the time of his death a few years ago.
New Church Edifice For Lane Chapel.
Lane chapel, colored Methodist Episcopal church at Elmo, Tex., has been rebuilt under the pastorate of the Rev. G. J. Jackson. The new edifice, which cost over $2,000, was dedicated on Sunday, Oct. 26. Three white clergymen, friends of the pastor, took part in the dedication services.
The quarterly convention of the Sunday schools of north Alabama and Tennessee was recently held in Stevenson, Ala., with a large attendance. The convention was in session for two days, during which time many helpful addresses were delivered and papers read dealing with the problems of the Sunday school teacher.
and incessantly for years and upon whom has recently fallen the burden of the bereavement of her devoted husband; all of which has had a tendency to unduly weight her down mentally and physically and she is now compelled to take a 30 day recreation visit in the warm climate of Pasadena, Cal., where the happy birds will joyously sing and the murmuring trees will gladly rustles the common lifes' motto,
"Lives of great men all remind us.
We can make our lives sublime,
And departing leave behind ns,
Footprints in the sand of time."
Her life exemplary of her success contains many pearls of useful suggestions.

THE LYNCHING OF JOE M'NEELY
Truth About Southern Mob Violence Laid Bare.
RAVAGES OF STRONG DRINK
Good and Evil Effect of the Influence of the Public Press Shown In Editorial Comment In Reference to the Killing of Police Officer L. L. Wilson In Charlotte, N. C.
Salisbury, N. C.—That a well edited press in the south, representing everything that stands for justice and the advancement of Afro-Americans, meets the approval of some of the leading white publications of the south is evidenced in the following editorial from Collier's Weekly. The editor of the Piedmont Advocate, this city, wrote an editorial on the lynching of Joe McNeely in Charlotte, and after quoting the able editorial of the editor of the Piedmont Advocate the editor of Collier's Weekly, under the caption "Some White Man," says;
"This time it happened at Charlotte, N. C. A Negro named Joe McNeely, filled and crazed with cocaine and bad whisky' (we quote a North Carolina paper), shot and perhaps mortally wounded a police officer, L. L. Wilson. Joe had run amuck with a gun, and the officer was 'after him.' The sequel is commonplace enough—a mob lynched the guilty Negro. But was that Negro really guilty? The question is not
A. S. S.
DR. W. R. CRITTENDEN.
one of identity. Though lynchers often enough punish the wrong man, there was no mistake as to the individual Negro. But the newspaper we have quoted asked four pointed questions:
"Who is responsible for the bad whisky that fills our south? Who is it that makes the ignorant, degraded Negro his tool for the commission of all kinds of crime? Who is it that does out that terrible thing—cocaine—with which the Negroes in ever increasing numbers are becoming crazed? Who are running blind tigers and "clubs" and places of ill fame and gambling?
"We talk about 'bad Negroes' and no one denies that they exist. But it is bad whites upon whom the final responsibility for these outrages rests—yes, and a part of it. too, upon us responsible citizens who tolerate their practices. But for the bad whites, who concoct and dispense poison. Joe McNeely would not have run amuck. Who ever heard of a Negro distiller of 'nigger gin'? But for bad whites Officer Wilson would be on his beat today, and murder by mob would not have blackened Charlotte's good name as a municipality. We wish that the southern press would make a practice of printing the names of the men who make money out of the drinks and drugs that debauch Negroes.
"We wish that the mob spirit would take the form of running these men out of the towns they disgrace. Social punishment is most cruelly efficacious, as every schoolgirl knows, and might even have its effect upon the smug distillers at Louisville who flood the mails with advertisements of bottled vice. And cruelty is justice here, for, while a Negro murderer is at worst a dangerous beast, the man who makes money out of stimulating crime is unnameable, unclean."
The editor of the Pledmont Advocate is Professor W. B. Crittenden, an unassuming man but the right type of man for a molder of character. He received his elementary training in New England schools and graduated from the high school at Medford. Mass. He then matriculated at Oberlin and graduated with honors. He had the distinguished honor to be on the junior exhibition at this institution, and the first field day at Oberlin he won a medal.
As a pedagogue he is one of the leading factors in educating the youth of the race. For seven years he was head of the academic department of St. Augustin school. Raleigh, but resigned this position to teach chemistry and higher mathematics at Livingstone college, this city, where he has been for the past twelve years. He very nibly represented the A. M. E. Zlon connection and Livingstone college, the leading institution of this denomination, at the universal races congress which met in London in 1911.

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 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.

NEW PUBLICATION ON THE COMMINGLING OF THE RACES
Caesar Taylor's Book Strikes at the Root of American Injustice.
Caesar A. A. P. Taylor of Philadelphia may not be a prophet in the Biblical sense of the term nor the son of a prophet, but the accuracy with which he has foretold in his book the present situation of the United States in its relation to other countries shows him to be a man of broad vision.
With no other desire but to truthfully interpret the meaning of the injustice to the colored people of this country as practiced by legislators and sanctioned by the national government, he tells how class legislation as seen in the discrimination against the Afro-American citizen on public conveyances, segregation in cities and places of public accommodation will react upon those responsible for the existence of such injustice.
The title of Mr. Taylor's book, "The Conflict and Commingling of the Races," is most appropriate. This new work on the great American problem, wherein the Negro is forcefully and fearlessly defended against the attacks of Tillman. Vardaman. Blease and all others who delight in singling him out for drastic arraignment in print and speech and making him a special subject for reactionary legislation, is bound to have a salutary effect upon the public conscience.
The author enjoys a wide acquaintance and correspondence with many of the foremost personages in this country and abroad. His vast experience and past associations have afforded opportunities which equip him with ability to speak or write interestingly and instructively. He is optimistic throughout, yet his language is startling, cutting and firm.
His book is a courageous and manly defense. He does not whimper nor whine. He asks no quarter. He has put together in "The Conflict and Commingling of the Races" a book which turns both the opposition and the arguments of the opposition into a missile which he hurts with a compelling and effective force. A perusal of the book will fully attest to what is here claimed for it and more. The following excerpts from "The Conflict and Commingling of the Races" are indicative of what the volume of 134 pages contains:
"A jimcrow country, jimcrow churches and jimcrow presachers are not calculated to inspire either men or women with reverence for a religion so plainly hypocritical." "There is no God, and Christ is a myth if this country can exist with two standards of justice, one for white men and one for black men. The church is impotent." "I have no respect for nor faith in a religion professed by those who condone national crimes against any race of people." "Lynchings, burnings of human beings, denials of justice and legislative wrongs are not the products of a Christian land. If so, then I want nothing of Americanised Christianity. Neither do others, nor do others wrong to be condemned while the victims cry aloud to deaf ears and hearts of stone." "There are many justice loving, noble hearted white people at the south, but the curse of that people and their glorious Eden-like land is the unrestrained howlings and yellings of the Tillmans, Vardamans, Blesses and other demagogues of greater or lesser degrees."
EMANCIPATION EXPOSITION.
New York Celebration Embraced Many Notable Features of Progress. By N. BARNETT DODSON. New York.—With beautiful decorations and thrilling music by E. E. Thompson's band of the New Amsterdam Musical association, the New York emancipation proclamation exposition opened auspiciously in the Twelfth Regiment armory in this city Wednesday, Oct. 22. The character and quality of the exhibits and the variety of information found on charts and placards which encircled the entire building afforded entertainment in abundance for the thousands in attendance throughout the ten days of the exposition.
As if by magic the spectators were drawn to the Egyptian art temple, which stood near the center of the building. In this magnificent structure were shown paintings, drawings, sculpture and other works of art, portraying the handiwork of members of the race, which were counted worthy by art critics of national and international fame to stand side by side with the works of the most finished artists of modern times.
In the center of the temple stood an eight foot group of statuary emblematic of and interpreting "Humanity Freeing the Slaves." This production is by Miss Meta Varrick of Philadelphia, who received her art education at the Industrial Art school in her home city and subsequently studied for three years under Rodin in Paris.
On a large canvas is shown the gallant uphill charge of the famous Twenty-fifth United States regiment at the battle of El Caney in the Spanish-American war. In the hall of fame were distributed photographs of Douglass, Langston, Bruce, Pinchback, Washington and many other pictures of noted men of the race. In this was also a picture showing the jury which tried Jefferson Davis, said to be the first mixed jury to serve at a trial in the United States. The exhibits showing the religious advance of the race were creditable and quite complete in detail.
The industrial exhibits were numerous. The booth of the Howard Orphanage Industrial school was one of the main centers of attraction in this department, as all of the exhibits were the production of the children of the institution. There were samples of new shoes, shoes repaired, plain and fancy sewing, embroidery work and farm products. Four cabbages weighing eighty pounds occupied the center of the platform.
The historical pageant of the race—a great scenic production, written by Commissioner Du Bois and produced with 350 actors in full costume, with orchestra and chorus and a regiment of boy scouts under Major R. C. Wendell—was given Thursday evening, Oct. 23; Saturday afternoon (mattinee), Oct. 23; Tuesday evening, Oct. 28, and Thursday evening, Oct. 30. From 5,000 to 8,000 persons witness this thrilling play each time. When the play was over on Tuesday evening there were calls for Dr. Du Bois from thousands of voices, so pleased were the spectators. The exposition closed Friday evening, Oct. 31, with an All Halloween costume ball and exposition band concert.
SUFFERAGE IN OKLAHOMA.
Counsel For Advancement Association Questions Validity of New Law.
Mr. Moorfield Storey, counsel for the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, has filed with the United States supreme court a brief in behalf of the association in the case of Frank Guinn and J. I. Beal against the United States. The case concerns an amendment to the Oklahoma constitution, adopted in 1910, which the association contends discriminates against the Negro race in the matter of the suffrage.
The case comes before the supreme court on a certificate from the circuit court of appeals for the eighth circuit, asking instructions in regard to two questions relative to the validity of the amendment, which reads as follows:
No person shall be registered as an elector of this state or be allowed to vote in any election herein unless he be able to read and write any section of the constitution of the state of Oklahoma. And no person who was on Jan. 1, 1868, or at any time prior thereto entitled to vote under any form of government or who at that time resided in some foreign nation, and no line descendant of such person shall dedicate the right to to so read and write sections of such constitution.
Precinct election inspectors having in charge the registration of electors shall enforce the provisions of this section at the time of registration provided registration be required. Should registration be dispensed with the provisions of this section shall be enforced by the precinct election officer when electors apply for ballots to vote.
The questions certified are as follows:
First—Was the amendment to the constitution of Oklahoma heretofore set forth valid?
Second.—Was that amendment void in so far as it attempted to debar from the right or privilege of voting for a qualified candidate for a member of congress in Oklahoma unless they were able to read and write any section of the constitution of Oklahoma Negro citizens of the United States, but were otherwise qualified to vote for a qualified candidate for a member of congress in that state, but who were not and none of whose lineal ancestors was entitled to vote under any form of government on Jan. 1, 1866, or at any time prior thereto because they were then slaves?
"The amendment to the constitution of Oklahoma now before the court is one of many similar provisions adopted in certain states, varying in their language, but intended to accomplish the same object, and that an object forbidden by the constitution of the United States." says Mr. Storey in the opening of the brief.

NOTES FROM CHEYENNE.
Sunday was a day of rejoicing at Allen's chapel. The new pastor, Rev. J. W. Warren, has already won a place in the hearts of the people of Cheyenne. He is a speaker of note and though coming to us a stranger, we are certain that he is the man in the right place. The church has been revived and we are positive in saying his stay with us will be pleasant and profitable. The different auxiliaries of the church are beginning to settle down to their work. The Willing Workers, under the leadership of Miss Sallie Thistle as president, promises to be very helpful to the church. Mr. H. C. Jefferson on last Sunday made an appeal to the people for a good collection the first Sunday in the month and the people graciously responded and a collection amounting to $50,000 was raised to pay up back indebtedness of the church.
Mrs. J. E. Smith has been made chorister of the choir and they are furnishing good music at all of the services.
Mrs. J. W. Warren is an excellent musician, which is another welcome addition to Cheyenne's talent.
We heartily welcome Rev. and Mrs. Warren.
Mrs. S. L. Willis was the instigator of a surprise in the form of a pound party for our new pastor and wife and everyone was represented in helping her make it a success.
Messrs. Carl and Nolle Smith are at Ft. Lupton, Colo., filling a contract for the Smith Construction Co.
Mrs. S. Hipshire, wife of Sergt. Hipshire of the 9th Cavalry, is very ill at the present writing.
Mrs. S. L. Willis spent the past week in Ogden, Utah.
Rev. Williams of Ogden is visiting for a few days with his family. Mr. H. Mendenhall of Denver was the guest of Miss Beaulah Baker the past week. Mr. J. W. McClare, who has been sick at St. John's, is able to resume his work again. Mrs. Johnson, mother of Mrs. Albert Palmer, came up from Grand Island, Neb., to attend Mrs. Palmer, who has been suffering from typhoid fever. Mrs. Palmer is very much improved and expects to be out soon. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Smith of Denver have come to Cheyenne to reside. Mrs. H. C. Jefferson, who has been sick for the past two weeks, is convalescing. Messrs. Elmer Smith and Phillip Baker accompanied the high school football team to Ft. Collins. The game resulted in a victory for Cheyenne.
We are in receipt of a copy of the Colorado Advance, edited by Mrs. E. B. Butler. We are pleased to congratulate Mrs. Butler in her new field and hope and pray for her success The paper should be in every home in Cheyenne. Let us help one another.
Club Notes.
The Searchlight club is doing much good and has made an excellent start. They have placed a beautiful rug in the A. M. E. parsonage, and will on Thanksgiving give a contest for the benefit of the Second Baptist church under the direction of Mrs. J. A. Baker. Mrs. J. E. Leonard, our able president, is putting forth every effort and the Searchlight expects to carry an excellent report to Salt Lake in June. Mrs. Joe Baker will receive the club on Thursday.
St. Paul Church Burns Mortgage. The pastor and members of the St. Paul A, M. E. church in St. Louis are subliant over the fact of having cleared their church property of debt. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks' pastorate of twenty-two months at this church has been a great blessing to the many members of this particular parish as well as to the denomination at large. During his brief ministry at the St. Paul church Dr. Brooks has raised over $14,000. Such a leader is worthy of the highest office in the gift of his denomination.
Well Known Christian Worker Dies.
Mrs. Isabella Quarles, a well known religious, charitable and social worker in Brooklyn, died on Saturday, Sept. 6.
She was a teacher in the Concord Baptist Sunday school for many years, a member of the Ladies' auxiliary of the society of Sons of Virginia.

WHITE MAN BLACKS FACE AND IMITATES DOG AT ANNEX THEATRE.
SOCIETY NOTES.
The residence of Mrs. John Shortt
In the hole-in-the-wall on Larimer street, called the "Annex theatre" there are five girls and two men in a troupe of seven (all white), playing vaudeville. One man blacks his face, playing negro, and sleeps on the floor. The other players kick and abuse him, he takes it good naturedly and "grins." But what is most disgusting of all is when this black-faced white man gets on his knees, plays dog, and barks when they call him "Nig," and when they say to him, "Ain't you a dog?" then he sings "Dis Nigger Wants His Chicken Pot Pie." When questioned about the reflection on the negro race, the Jew manager is purported to have said: "Niggers stand for anything; nothing gets too bad for them." We say, and know, that even on Larimer street, in this hole-in-the-wall theatre, that negroes have manhood and race loyalty, and a reflection cast against the negro, even in such a place, deserves your strongest condemnation. Let no negro frequent this man's place. Stay away, and patronize the other theatres which employ negroes, or which advertise in the negro press and treat the negroes, along with the other races, courteously. Spurn him and resent hi sinult by your absence and tell your white and negro friends if they believe all negroes are dogs, to go and give this man their hard earned money. Mr. Larimer negro, it is up to you. For God's sake and for the sake of the respect you have for your race, STAY AWAY, SEE. What negroes will go there now.
GUILTY OR NOT GUILTY.
If you wish to assist in killing your church's services on the Lord's day, just stay at home. If you want to hurt the cause, attend church for no particular purpose; give sparingly to support the gospel; listen to idle gossip about your church and pastor, and then encourage it by circulating or giving an ear to it. Refuse every opportunity to work in the church, and criticize those who are doing their best; drink all the liquor you can get and then attend church, hoping to be aroused by the gospel. These things will kill any church. ARE YOU GUILTY?
There is no better time than the present to show your good felling toward the Jewish race than by raising your voice in protest against the injustices that are being done them in Russia.

Those who have been fortunate enough to attend anything given by this exclusive club will know that it must have been a delightful affair. As the club colors are red and green, the costumes were made of those colors, the right sid red and the left, green.
The scene of the party was at the home of L. Earl George, where the young people enjoyed dancing and refreshments. After that they went enmasse to Fern hall, where they caused no little excitement by their unique costumes. The members of the club and their young lady guests present were Messrs. James Banion, F.

It was delightfully spent in games and music, after which a few speeches and an elaborate Dutch lunch was served, and at the wee wee hours of the morning the jolly crowd left. The guest of honor regrets her short and unusually pleasant stay in her old home town, Denver.
Sister Annie Wright, of Evergreen Chapter No. 36, O. E. S. We wish to express our sympathy to you in the loss of your dear mother.
Death is a mystery. His heartless decree compels us to submit to his will. We know of no way to hinder his onward and rapid march in taking from us our beloved ones. We are at his mercy, yet we are taught that death is simply the gate entering into endless joy.
We pray that you have the help of a higher power, and only the loving Father can wipe away our tears.

ANNUAL MEETING OF EDUCATORS
Object of Conference to Be Held In Washington.
LEADERS OF THE MOVEMENT
Representatives of the Various Agricultural Schools Connected With the Land Grant Colleges to Conference Matters of Moment-Importance of a Central Organization.
Washington.—Representatives of the Negro Land Grant colleges will hold a conference at the Young Men's Christian association building, 1816 Twelfth street, in this city, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, Nov. 12 and 13. This conference will be held in connection with the association of American Agricultural colleges and experiment stations which meets at the same time. Most of the schools have already appointed their delegates to this conference. Alabama will be represented by President W. S. Buchanan and Professor P. C. Parks; Arkansas by Professor C. P. McLurkin; Delaware by President W. C. Jason; Florida by President Young and Professor F. H. Cardoza; Maryland by President J. O. Spencer and Professor T. H. Klah; Mississippi by President J. A. Martin; North Carolina by President B. Dudley and Professor Bluford; South Carolina by President R. S. Wilkinson and Professor B. F. Hubert; Virginia by Professor C. K. Graham and probably Dr. H. B. Frissel; West Virginia by President Byrd Prillerman and Professor A. W. Curtis.
Other institutions than the Land Grant colleges are invited to participate in the deliberations of this conference. Hon. P. P. Claxton and other distinguished educators are expected to take part in the program. All phases of agriculture will be discussed. The conference is of great importance to those in charge of agricultural schools.
The last meeting of this organization was held at Atlanta university, Atlanta, Ga., November, 1912. The principal addresses at that meeting were made by Dr. H. E. Stockbridge, Professor F. B. Jenks and President Kenyon L. Butterfield of the Massachusetts Agricultural college.
President Byrd Prillerman of the West Virginia Colored institute Institute. W. Va., is chairman of this conference, and Professor Benjamin F. Hubert, director of agriculture of the State Colored college, Orangeburg, S. C., is secretary. They have prepared an excellent program for the coming session and much benefit is expected to be derived from this conference.
The men connected with the movement in an official way have had considerable experience in educational work as heads of colleges and other institutions of learning among our people. They know the advantage of having the most suitable equipment for agricultural schools as well as the needs of those for whom such institutions are maintained.
Much can be accomplished by the right kind of co-operation in educational work by those who are intrusted with the training of young men and women for future service. If the churches, business enterprises, secret and benevolent societies see the necessity of having a central organization for the furtherance of their interests so should our educators unite in thought and action for the promotion of better facilities and closer cooperation in all matters which have to do with the preparation of the young men and women to make the most of their opportunities.
ETHIOPIANS AND EGYPTIANS.
Some Hitherto Unpublished Facts Regarding Origin of Race Prejudice.
By JOHN E. BRUCE (CRI)
BY JOHN E. BRUCE (GRIT).
Should it be asked at what epoch the system of jimcrowing the Negro took its birth we shall answer on the testimony of the monuments of astronomy itself that its principles appear with certainty to have been established about 17,000 years ago. And if it be asked to what people it is to be attributed we shall answer that the same monuments, supported by unanimous traditions, attribute it to the first tribes of Egypt.
Thus the Ethiopian of Thebes named the stars of inundation, or Aquarius, those stars under which the Nile began to overflow; stars of the Ox or the Bull, those under which they began to plow; stars of the Lion, those under which that animal, driven from the desert by thirst, appeared on the banks of the Nile; stars of the Sheaf or of the Harvest Virgin, those of the reaping season; stars of the Lamb, stars of the two Kids, those under which these precious animals were brought forth, and thus was resolved the first part of the difficulty.—From Chapter XXII, Unexpurgated Copy, Volney's "Rulns of Empire."
A perusal of this chapter will disclose the fact that Africa has given to modern civilization the science of astronomy and the religion with which it now seeks to humiliate and degrade the descendants of these tawny blacks,
"The Ethiopians," says Lucian at page 985, "were the first who invented the science of the stars and gave names to the planets, not at random and without meaning, but descriptive of the qualities which they conceived them to possess, and it was from them that this art passed, still in an imperfect state, to the Egyptians." That moderns are capable of teaching to Negroes the principle of the religion of Jesus Christ, a religion which they profess, but do not practice, is, to say the least, amusing.
God has evidently placed the Negro in America to test the reality of the white man's religion. The test is not creditable to him. His religion is a snare and a delusion, sounding brass and tinkling cymbals. And the Negro will not have it because he does not need it.
NOTICES TO BE PAID FOR.
Owing to the increased cost of publication, it becomes necessary to make a nominal charge of 50c, payable in advance, for all Cards of Thanks, notices of condolence and Resolutions. The price of room rent, ads and other liners that are run on a monthly rate of 50c must be paid in advance as we are unable to carry them at so small a rate and pay a collector's commission. No items of this nature accepted without a cash
The Endowment Department of the Codd Fellows has already paid J. W. Jackson $100.00 for the death of his wife, who was a member of Household of Ruth 376. The prompt payment came as a surprise as the required time had not expired.
Mrs. J. W. Mackey and daughter left last week for Phoenix, Ariz, where they will remain. Mrs. Mackey has been in poor health for the last two yerrs.

meeting day and church attendance
day, Shorter enjoyed most remarkable
services. Throughout the day the
church-going spirit rested heavily up-
on the citizens of Denver and not only
great crowds flocked to church, but
the services were highly spiritual and
the offering was liberal. Our Sunday
collection was $160.25. Presiding Bl-
der A. M. Ward and Rev. Jas. \Wash-
ington were our pulpiteers and the
congregation went away deeply im-
pressed because of the sermon

handsome piece of silver. It is just
splendid to give some of the flowers
while one is living.

‘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 thet 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 keot clean. This san-
itary method oi 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 6f disease
which often prove fatal to innocent
persons coming in contact with them,

Just the Thing For the Children's Stocking
Isn't this the cutest little candy kid you ever saw? He's the product of the fertile brain of a Vassar girl who first made him for a midnight "spread." The little fellow would be just the thing for the children's Christmas stocking.
How is he made? The easiest thing in the world. Get a goodly supply of strong toothpicks, some large raisins, marshmallows, almonds and figs. Then you are ready for the Frankenstein trick-making a man.
It is best to begin on the legs and arms first. To make the legs stick

THE CANDY KID.
two of the raisins on two toothpicks,
and to the ends of each place an almond for a foot. The arms are made in the same way; except for the hands the almonds are blanched. Now run two marshmallows through a toothpick for the man's body. He hasn't any neck. Have ready some melted chocolate and dip an orange stick in this mixture and with it make large dots for the buttons on his coat and for his facial features. Now attach arms and legs, and when a good sized fig has been rakishly placed on his head for a hat the man is ready for the stocking.
This Poppy Pincushion Is Extremely New and Smart
This pincushion is made over a wooden hat stand. These wooden forms are purchased at any fancy work store. The huge flower forms are good imitations of large poppies. The top is a smaller poppy.
The flowers at the base are three in number. Around a padded satin covered center are the petals. The center is made by a ball of cotton, the silk curved over it and sewed at the base. Pink ribbon is gathered one-fourth of an inch from the edge. Ribbon is at-

FANCY FLOWER PINCUSHION.
tached to the base of the padded center, and the ribbon is wound about in three layers. This gives the petal effect.
The three forms are placed around the base after the stem is wrapped by the ribbon from base to top. A long piece of ribbon is shirred, as in the flower forms, and wound around itself, as the swirled roses are made, the lower edge drawn and sewed fast to the top. Put pins with black, white and colored tops in the centers of each flower at the base and you will have finished as pretty a pincushion as you will see.
These floral pincushions may be made to represent other flowers than popples, of course. It is a good idea to scent them with suet cushion powder. The scent should, if possible, be suited to the flowers, a rose cushion being per fumed with rose powder, etc. If you happen to know what is the favorite flower of the one for whom the gift is intended use it in designing the pincushion. A gift of this sort will be appreciated and kept long after the useless trifles so often got up in the name of fancy work are discarded and forgotten.
Constitution League Sends Strong Reminder to President Wilson.
Philadelphia. - The Constitution League of the United States, with headquarters at 1530 Lombard street, this city, through its field secretary, Dr. William A. Sinclair, recently sent a memorial to President Woodrow Wilson at Washington, which reads in part as follows:
Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States, Washington:
Honored Sir-In the name of the Constitution League of the United States (incorporated), composed of citizens without regard to race, sex, creed or party, I beg respectfully to make representations to you in regard to the unfair, humiliating, degrading and, I think, unlawful treatment which your colored fellow citizens are receiving under your administration.
Colored men were members of the convention which nominated you. Colored citizens were generously admitted to the convention hall, and some sat on the platform. You were elected to your high office through the united efforts and votes of both your white and colored fellow citizen. You distinguished gentlemen having charge of your election, whom made special appeals to colored voters, and in order to accomplish results they established special headquarters in Boston, New York, Washington, Chicago and Denver. Every assurance was given of fair, just and equal consideration for colored citizens in the event of your election.
In your letter to the Right Rev. Bishop Alexander Walters, president of the National Colored Democratic league, you yourself specifically pledged "just," "fair" and "treatent to your" colored fellow citizen. The result of the campaign you gave similar assurance to other colored men. It seems conclusive that the elimination of the race issue achieved your election.
I beg respectfully to say that many white and colored citizens believed that as you were a man of southern birth and northern opportunities, possessing the broadest scholarship and culture with the gift of statesmanship, you would bring to bear on the race question the best and most patriotic thoughts of both southern and northern life, and also that you were ideally circumstanced to wipe out the Negro question as a factor in American politics by the faithful recognition of the mandates of the constitution of the United States.
At the moment when all should be "quiet on the Potomac" I do not think it will be altogether a surprise to you for me to say, that the colored people of the United States are more wrought up and alarmed at that moment their rights and liberties than at any period since their emancipation. This is due.
First—To the removal of competent colored men from offices in several of the states which they had filled by national appointment for years.
Second—The removal of competent colored men from offices held under national appointment in Washington.
Third.—The refusal to appoint colored men to diplomatic posts which had for more than a generation been held by members of the race.
Fourth.—The degradation imposed on colored men and women in several of the departments of the government through the practices of segregation and Jimmy Carter, colored men taken from desks and from rooms and segregated, colored clerks being denied equal use of the lunch counters, the lockers, toilets, etc.
In the name, then, of the Constitution League of the United States—and I may venture to say in the name of the liberty loving, Christian and patriotic people of the republic—I would most respectfully appeal to you as the president of the whole people to take such steps in the judgment would remedy these terrible wrongs against the Negro people, a people whose loyalty, faithfulness and service to their country in peace and in the stress of war have never been questioned, a people whose life is always on the altar of their country.
With assurance of our most high regard I beg to subscribe yours most obediently, WILLIAM A. SINCLAIR,
MAKING FIGHT FOR JUSTICE.
Recent Events Show Growing Resentment Against Race Segregation.
No man ever gave utterance to words fraught with more truth than those of Lincoln when he asserted "this republic can not long endure half slave and half free." And because of the belief in such a sentiment the colored people are making dignified protests throughout the country against discrimination on account of race and color.
The late Stewart L. Woodford said on one occasion while speaking at a literary society of Afro-Americans in Brooklyn in which he voiced the sentiments of b's white fellow citizens.
"We never freed the slaves until we had to, and we will never accord to them as free men all the rights and privileges which belong to them until we have to."
Crispus Attucks, credited as being the first to shed his blood in the American Revolution, said to his comrades when he saw the British troops advancing on Boston, "Strike at the root. for there is the nest." Mrs. A. W. Hunton at the Beecher centennial celebration in Brooklyn, Oct. 21, in the course of an able address on Beecher's attitude toward freedom for the colored race said that the colored people should fight color prejudice to death. The open letter to President Wilson recently sent from the Constitution league, the Boston and Baltimore protest mass meetings are all indications of the growing spirit of resentment among colored Americans against injustice in all of its hideous forms.
Segregation In the Christian Church. While it might seem fit to some persons to have the colored members of the Protestant Episcopal church presided over by a bishop of their race, it is also the opinion of the majority that there should be no race segregation in that denomination in so far as official rank is concerned. Furthermore, should a bishop ever be selected from the ranks of the colored membership he should not be restricted to any particular race, but given charge of a diocese. Should there be churches with white members and churches with colored members he must necessarily be the bishop over each. True Christianity does not segregate after the manner of the world.

DON'T LET BABY SUFFER WITH ECZEMA AND SKIN ERUPTIONS.
Babies need a perfect skin-covering. Skin eruptions cause them not only intense suffering, but hinder their growth. DR.

"Our baby was afflicted with breaking out of the skin all over the face and scalp. Doctors and skin specialists failed to help. We tried Dr. Hobson's Eczema Ointment and were overjoyed to see baby completely cured before one box was used," writes Mrs. Strubler, Dubuque, Iowa. All druggists, or by mail, 50c.

REV. WASHINGTON CARRIES BIG CROWD AT SHORTER'S SA-CRED SERVICE SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
When Rev. Washington, pastor of Campbell church, finished his earnest, enthusiastic and spiritual sermon Sunday afternoon at the sacramental celebration, there was scarcely a person who did not feel good to have witnessed the presence of the Holy Ghost as the reverend eloquently and at will swayed the large audience with the spiritual message. Amens, Glory to God, and praise the Lord, were so prevalent among the congregation that it seemed as if the church was spiritually afre with God's praises.
Old fathers and mothers shouted, some middle-aged rocked, and the young shed tears during the handshaking when Sister Ellott sang "Bye and Bye." It was a great service.
