ex-slaves. The Supreme Court of Tennessee, when Senator Shields was its Chief Justice, decided that ex-slaves have no inheritance blood. Will Jones, one of John Jones' brothers, has brought the case to the Supreme Court, seeking a reversal. W. H. Harrelson, attorney for Will Jones, filed a brief of his argument in the case.
John T. Birch, a real estate dealer of 1821 Dean street, Brooklyn, is interested in the formation of a new company of colored colonists who are expected to start soon for the Gold Coast of Africa, following the recent departure of the Chief Sam's band of colored people for the same place. The new company is capitalized at $500,000. With Mr Birch are associated Albert Frankel of Richmond Hill and Emmett J. Scott of Tuskegee, Ala. The company is to be known as the African Union Co., and its promoters insist that it has nothing to do with Chief Sam's company. News Item. We have seen so many ways and means devised for advertising a business until the latest is by no means means or even sensatiional. If the African Union Co. succeeds in its undertaking and carry any colored people to the Gold Coast, it is safe to assume that their patrons will not be secured from among any intelligent portion of the masses.
BUSINESS MEN REORGANIZE.
Local League In Richmond, Va., Takes on New Life.
Richmond, Va.—The Local Negro Business league of this city was reorganized the third week in March by Ralph W. Tyler, national organizer for the National Negro Business league. Prior to the reorganization Mr. Tyler addressed the business and professional men of the city at the Richmond Beneficial association hall, on the importance of business co-operation. The greatest interest was shown in the new organization, and the need of it was emphasized by a number of speakers following Mr. Tyler, among whom were Rev. Drs. Graham and Morris, Mrs. Maggie Walker, president of St Luke's bank; Dr. Jones and others.
Mr. Tyler was introduced by a fellow journalist, John Mitchell, Jr., editor of the Planet. The officers elected were: Mr. Floyd Ross, president; John T. Taylor, vice president; James T Carter, secretary; T. F. Archer, treasurer, and the following executive committee: John Mitchell, Jr.; Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, Dr. R. E. Jones and W. D. Jones, Mr. Ross, who was elected president, is president of the True Reformers, and the man whose untiring energy has revived that organization and through whose efforts many thousands of dollars of the fraternal society has been paid.
The vice president. John T. Taylor, is manager of the Richmond Beneficial association; the secretary, Mr. Carter, is secretary to one of the largest law firms of white men in the city; the treasurer, Mr. Archer, is Richmond's leading grocer. The executive board is composed of two bankers—Mr. Mitchell, president of the Mechanics' bank; Mrs. Walker, president of the St. Luke's bank—Dr. R. E. Jones, one of the leading physicians of the city, and W. O. Jones, carriage manufacturer. It will be seen that the reorganized Business league is officered by the most progressive and substantial citizens of Richmond.
Following the meeting Mr. Tyler was tendered a banquet at Hotel Miller. During his stay here he was shown much attention by Richmond's progressive citizens and was taken on a visit to as many of the business houses and financial and fraternal institutions conducted by the race as it was possible to visit.

Hang A Woman.
Muskogee, Okla. March 31. Marie Scott, a negro woman, who Sunday night killed Lemuel Peace, a young white man by driving a knife into his heart, was taken out of the Wagoner county jail early today and hanged to a telephone pole. The mob, which was masked, over-powered the jailor, a one-armed man, threw a rope over the woman's head and dragged her out of the fail.
Democrats Attack Stewart
Washington, D. C., March 24th.—Charging that he had been too friendly to the Negro railway mail clerks under him and that in addition he is a holdover Republican, Representatives Webb and Page of North Carolina called upon Postmaster General Burleson and requested the dismissal from the service of Second Assistant Postmaster General Joseph Stewart. There is considerable feeling against Stewart, especially among the Southern Senators and representatives, over the reports that he has shown undue partiality to the Negro employ eee under him, especially those connected with the railway mail service, over which he has direct supervision. Stewart entered the postal service in 1882 and was appointed Second Assistant Postmaster General in September, 1908.
Blind Singer Charms
Phiiadelphia, Pa., Mary Fitzhugh, a blind soprano who rivals Helen Kellar in the diversity of her accomplishments, charmed a large and enthusiastic audience at Musical Fund Hall, last night, in a varied and interesting program. Gifted with an excellent dramatic soprano voice, she delighted her hearers with well-selected numbers from Moszkowski, Meyerbeer, Bemberg and Arditi, which were well suited to her capabilities. Although totally blind Miss Fitzhugh operates the typewriter and does a number of other things which would seem to be impossible for one so unfortunate as to be deprived of the visual sense.
Rights of Ex-Slaves To Inherit Property.
Washington, D. C., March 25.—From a little farm of 87 acres, owned by John Jones, an ex-slave in Shelby County, Tenn., has come to the Supreme Court a question affecting Negroes all over the country. The question is whether ex-slaves are entitled to inherit from their brothers and sisters, who are likewise

Tenth Cavalry
Washington, D.C.—The Army and Navy Journal of March 17 contains an article under the caption, "Praise of the 10th Cavalry," in which several communication are published complimentary of the good order maintained by the troops of the famous regiment stationed at Fort Huachuaca, Ariz. The communication follows:
Naco, Ariz., Feb. 27, 1914. To the Editor of The Army and Navy Journal:
Knowing the generous pleasure your paper takes in giving publicity to all the good things you hear concerning the regular soldiers is my excuse for sending you these enclosures. The troops mentioned are Troops E. and I, 10th Cavalry. It is but fair to state that as I have been on duty in the 10th Cavalry for for only four months I am not entitled to as much credit as Mr. Abrams letter would imply. The good conduct of the enlisted men of the 10th Cavalry is closely associated with the history of the regiment, and is one of the many excellent conditions that the 10th Cavalry treasures and guards closely. This desirable state of discipline is largely due to the splendid type of non-com missioned officers with which this regiment is blessed.
These men are all old soldier, with many years of experience behind them. They are men of dignity and force. It is not to be wondered at that the young recruit, with such examples, develops into the trained and disciplined soldiers who wins praise from civilians whenever and wherever he may come in contact with them.

Special Announcement.
Madame Crummer, the scalp specialist, at 220 Carlton Hotel, has the pleasure to announce to the public that Mrs. R. D. Nichols of Corsicana, Texas, with her seven years experience in the profession, has come to Denver to make a thorough and complete study of the scalp and its treatments. It is Mrs. Nichols' greatest desire that she become as scientific and as perfect an artist as is Madame Crummer. Mrs. Nichols is widely known and her business integrity and careful and agreeable manner of handling the public easily proclaims for her a brilliant and prosperous business future, after a thorough and complete knowledge of Madame Crummer's methods and course. Mrs. Nichols, after fully mastering the art of scalp specialty, as taught by Madame Crummer, will return to Corsicana, Texas, where she will perform and execute the same standard of work and make diseased scalps healthy through her increased and fortified knowledge gained in the parlors of Madame Crummer.

Naco, Ariz., Feb. 24, 1914. Dear Sir: I desire to express my appreciation of the good order that is maintained here by the two troops of the 10th Caualry, under the command of Capt. Tompkins. It is far ahead of anything in the military discipline that has occurred here during this campaign. I sincerely hope that you will continue his presence here. Yours Sincerely,
Editor's Note.—This regiment is of course, a colored regiment, and it occurs to us that such high praise of these colored soldiers may be read with interest by the readers of The Age.
It was the members of the 9th Cavalry, also a colored regiment, who were successful in capturing Castilla, the Mexican bandit, a few days ago on the border.
Virginia Baptist State Convention.
The Virginia Baptist State Convention will hold its annual convention in Roanoke, Va., from Wednesday, May 13, to Sunday, May 17, inclusive. The convention aims to raise at the coming session $10,300 for education and home and foreign missions. The Rev. Alexander A. Galvin of Danville, Va., president of the convention, is keeping in close touch with the pastors of the churches belonging to the organization throughout the state. The president is urging each church to do its full duty in raising the amount mentioned above, which is the amount of the budget agreed upon at the last annual meeting of the convention.
New Edifice For Knights of Pythias.
The order of Knights of Pythias of the state of Illinois should be congratulated on the progress which is being made in the plans for the erection of the Pythian temple which the organization has decided to build in Chicago. According to the estimate agreed upon the edifice will cost $150,000. Much credit is due Major R. R. Jackson, Mr. E. D. Green and their associates in the work for having so arranged affairs as locate the temple in Chicago. Work on the building is to begin soon.
VILLA A NEGRO.
Frederick Inman Monsen, Noted Traveler Gives Out Statement.
Frederick Inman Monsen, the explorer, is the latest acquaintance of Gen. Panco Villa to declare that the Constitutional leader in Mexico is a Negro. In speaking of Gen. Villa's racial identity Mr. Monsen has given out the following statement. "I have known Villa personally for years. He was my guide for several months. Villa is a man of dominating personality with the eyes of a born dictator. I believe he has Negro blood in his veins, and I am certain that he has had military training somewhere."
Frederick Inman Monsen is an explorer of note, who was born in Norway. In 1906 and 1809 he traveled extensively in Mexico with Villa as his guide. Monsen has also explored South and Central Mexico.
When statements were first published in The Age that members of the Tenth Cavalry were positive in their identification of Gen. Villa being an American Negro many of the daily newspapers were inclined to scoff at the idea. However, within the past two weeks the dailies have become less incredulous.
The New York Sun believes it within the realm of probability for Gen Villa to be an American Negro, and says:
"Two soldiers af the Tenth Gavalry, a crack Negro regiment, have declared that they recognized in Villa a fellow trooper, and the story is not inherently improbable. The officers of the Tenth are splendid disciplinarions and they turn out fine soldiers. General Villa's enery, alertness, methodical habits of work and familiarity with transportation and commissariat details are unusual in a Mexican. The man has great natural ability, and he handles his army of raw volunteers like one who is well grounded in the school of the soldier."
Says the Buffalo Courier:
"According to resorts from Chihuahua, Francisco Villa will not long recognize Carranza as his superior, he will exercise supreme authority in continuing the military campaign, supported by the troops in whose favor he is exalted, and he aspires to the presidency of Mexico. Whether this is a true account may be almost as difficult to know as to know what will happen. Another interesting statement is made by The New York Age one of the most prominent Negro publication, a journal ably edited, and presumably with desire to be accurate. The Age a few weeks ago asserted that Villa is an American Negro, it now repeats the declaration, with some presentation of evidence to support it. Also it prints a portrait claimed to be his, o

obviously Negro type and widely different from the pictures of Villa with which the public has been made familiar. The man is said to have been born in this country and to have served under the name of George Goldsby as sergeant-major in the Tenth U. S. Cavalry, although most of his life has been passed in Mexico. Men claiming to have been with him in the regiment say they have seen him recently and talked with him of their army experiences. "The story is not improbable. Black men, or men with Negro blood, have made high military reputations in Central American and West Indian countries, Antonio Maceo in Cuba, as an illustrious example. White or black or Indian. however, Villa is creating no favorable foreign impression by his manner of dealing with those who cross his purposes, and his bravery may be believed largely in excess of his intellectuality." —The Age.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
Twenty-fourth Avenue and Ogden St.
David E. Over, Pastor.
Residence, 2356 Humboldt St.
Our series of revival meetings closed last Tuesday night, at which service two were added to the church by baptism and one by experience, bringing the total additions up to 90. Counting those who went to the other churches, the net gain from the meeting is about one hundred. Dr. Howard left the city Wednesday for California, where he is to conduct a series of meetings for the people on the coast. The service rendered to the church and the community by the mighty preaching of our brother cannot be estimated and will bear fruit in the years to come. The community has been stirred to its very heart and as a consequence the standard of Christianity has been lifted higher than in the history of the city before.
The zeal which was manifested by the faithful in Zion had much to do with the success of the meetings. For three months there has been mighty striving in prayer and in fastings by a large number of consecrated people to the end that the Master might show His power to save the souls of men. This glorious outpouring has been the result.
Tomorrow the pastor hopes to conclude the work of baptising the candidates. It is hoped that every one will be prepared to receive the rite so that all may be partakers at the monthly communion table, which service will be observed at the evening hour.
A meeting is called for new members at 5 o'clock at the church. Attendance at this meeting is necessary before the hand of fellowship is given. The pastor hopes to see every one.
The Sunday school Easter program will be given at the 11 o'clock hour in the auditorium of the church.

DEARFIELD
Dr. W. A. Jones was at Dearfield Sunday and Monday and made an extensive investigation of Dearfield possibilities, and was well pleased with conditions and progress being made. He will invest and become one of Dearfield's progressive citizens. In the case of Dr. Jones an old saying comes true as the "proof of the pudding is eating of the pie," and "seein gis believing." This is an opportunity for more of the leading citizens to go and see for themselves and then encourage the movement to better our condition. Mrs. Estella Maddox has filed on West 1/2 of Sec. 9, T. 3 N., 61 P. M., 320 acres, in the Dearfield settlement. Another brave woman added to the list of Dearfield women pioneers. Mr. Ben Holley and J. M. Holley pulled out Thursday a. m. for Dearfield with a fine team of mares, bought of Hollis and Pratt, at the Union stockyards.

PREPARED FOR BUSINESS
Industry of Afro-Americans in Pennsylvania—Success of W. J. Carter. Harrisburg, Pa.—The percentage of successful individuals among Afro-Americans who are engaged in business and the various professions in the larger cities of Pennsylvania is large. Those who have taken the time to prepare themselves properly for their chosen callings are making progress. Advance proofs of the forthcoming book on the industrial statistics of the state as they relate to our people show to what extent the race is represented in the trades, clerical work, business and the professions.
In the city of Philadelphia alone we have 60 physicians, 32 dentists, 75 stenographers, 204 clerks and copyists, 117 musicians, 45 graduate nurses, 15 druggists, 297 retail merchants, 29 blacksmiths, 250 postal clerks, 10 wholesale merchants, 72 upholsterers, 6 roofers and slaters, 24 plasterers, 10 paperhangers, 57 painters, 308 brick and stonemasons, 176 iron and steel workers, 96 carpenters and joiners, 5 electrical engineers and 15 stationary engineers.
The annual report on internal affairs is prepared by the Hon. John L. Rockey, chief of the bureau of industrial statistics in this city, and his assistants, among which is Dr. R. R.
A. B.
W. JUSTIN CABER.
Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder in Philadelphia. Dr. Wright has devoted much time and study in the preparation of the matter, and his report to Mr. Rockey reveals a mass of information which reflects credit upon both Dr. Wright and the race with which he is identified.
The legal profession is also well represented by many capable lawyers, who are practicing their profession in the various cities with marked success. In this city one of the best known attorneys among us is W. Justin Carter, a native of Virginia. Lawyer Carter came to this city in 1894 and was admitted to the bar and began the practice of law. By close attention to his work he has not only succeeded in his profession, but has won the confidence and respect of the people of the community.
He gained his first experience as a lawyer in Richmond, Va., his native city, after his graduation from the law department of Howard university in Washington. Lawyer Carter is conceded by his white associates at the bar in this city to be one of the best pleaders. The daily papers often refer to him as an able advocate. He is interested in all good movements for the advancement of the race here and is also connected with many movements of a national character which have for their object the securing of those fundamental rights guaranteed to the race as citizens of the United States.

Tyler took up with the director of the United States census and urged the matter of giving the home ownership by Negroes in the northern states as is done in the southern states. At that time the director repiled he could not do it. Mr. Tyler's contention at that time attracted considerable notice from white dailies because of his insistence that without this data the wonderful progress of the race in the north could not be shown.
Recently Mr. Tyler received the following letter from the director of census, which indicates that home ownership by Negroes in the northern states is soon to be collated and made public:
Mr. Ralph W. Tyler, National Negro Business League, Washington;
Dear Sir—You will perhaps remember that we had some correspondence last fall with reference to the ownership of homes in the United States by Negroes. At that time I informed you that the plans of my predecessor had been carried out to such an extent prior to my connection with the bureau that it was impossible for me to make any change in the presentation of figures on the ownership of homes by Negroes, which included the southern states only.
I am inciting a "Circular of Information concerning Tentative Program of the Bureau of Census," on page 6 of which is described the special report on "Negro Population," which I expect to issue as soon as I can get to it. This report will be similar to the "Twelfth Census Bulletin on Negroes In the United States." I have decided to have information relating to the ownership of homes tabulated by color in the remaining sections of the country, and this special report will show the ownership of homes by Negroes in all states.
Your interest in the work of the oensus bureau is greatly appreciated. Very truly yours,
WILLIAM J. HARRIS,

Just a word to the farmers of Deerfield. There is a busy bunch of knockers, white and black, that always have a lot of empty advice to give a man or woman who starts out to do something of credit. Just remember that the advisor won't fence your land; neither will thunder plow your ground or lightning cultivate your crops. Use common sense, some fence posts, hard wire, and a team of horses: in your land, make a confident of your soil and the Almighty and you will put those busy, know-nothing advisors to shame. There are many good worthy people who are sorry now that the Government land is all gone adjoining Deerfield, and that they listened to the knockers. There has been enough done by those who have been there for three years to prove the possibilities of the soil if the settlers do their duty toward it. Every man and woman in Deerfield is on his and her own responsibility, and the degree of success attained depends wholly on the effort put forth. Whatever the other fellow does, will not have any bearing what-

ever on the success you have, but you must plan for yourself and keep within your means; study your soil and crops and cultivate your land. We now have prospects for a very successful season so let's get busy.
Deerfield is the coming community for colored people in Colorado. After ten years of hard struggle we have gotten the colony on a firm footing, and many who had an opportunity to settle on land some time ago are now sorry that they did not take advantage of the opportunity.
To prove that a Negro settlement is a benefit to us, we will take as an example "Five Points" in Denver, Colo. Three years ago there was not a Negro engaged in business at Five Points. Today there are two grocery stores, two barber shops, four restaurants, two pool rooms, two club houses, Y. M. C. A. headquarters, Patrick Realty Co., Smith Teaming Co., and the Dearfield Agency, 13 business places in all. There are any number of rooming houses and five churches within a few blocks, three doctors, one fire department and two lodge rooms.
The Dearfield mercantile store will be ready for business by May 1st, in time to supply the beet workers.

CROWD—Y. M. C. A.
HONORED.
Mrs. I. K. Madison's selections were well rendered. She has a very pretty soprano voice; especially her higher notes were clear and birdlike. This, with her pleasing appearance, completely won her audience.
Schuman's Romance in F sharp and Rubinatein's Barcarole in G minor by Mr. Valaurez Spratlin were rendered as only the true musician can. He carried his audience with him. Mr. Spratlin has a wonderful future before him. By request he played Prehude in C sharp minor by Ralhmaninoff.
Mr. Yacob Reid was delightful in "Out on the Deep" and "The Venetian Song." His lower register was best. His voice is clear and he sings with ease and romantic feeling.
Mrs. Lillian Hawkins Jones closed the program and as usual the audience were loath to let her go. She responded again and again with several encores. The committee should be congratulated on setting such a high standing in beginning promptly at 8 o'clock, and the musical folk of Denver certainly received a rare treat. With Mr. George Morrison's interpretation and one rendition of "Cavalleria Rusticana" and "Traumerei" on the violin added to the blending, sympathetic accompanying of Mr. Valuarez Spartlin, the profound pianist, one could easily say two souls but one harmonic chord and two symmetrical music minds that beat as one. The audience was deeply moved with an imperceptible response as these two artists poured out their souls. Both young men were ardently applauded and an encore as an appreciative recognition of the audience's desires. The Peerless Trio was prevented from appearing because of a previous engagement caused by the change in dates. Nobody knew that Denver appreciated her three musical artists until their absence. They deserve all Denver can give them.

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

ENERGY OF THE STUDENTS.
Brief Account of What Mrs. S. C. J. Bryant, a Graduate of Spelman, Is Doing For Our People Through the School Which She Founded Five Years Ago.
Atlanta, Ga.-Spelman seminary continues to exert a wide and uplifting influence upon the people of this community. The message sent on New Year's day, 1914, by General Booth to his great army, condensed into the single word "Others," may be said to be engraved upon the heart of every Spelman girl as she goes forth to perform life's duties. Not only is she willing to do for those less fortunate, but her training has made her also capable of helping the needy.
So well known is the character of this school that when the announcement is made in a community that the new teacher is a Spelman student no young person remains at home for any reason whatsoever, not even to pick cotton. Nor is it the children only
A. E.
MRS S. C. J. BRYANT.
who profit by the presence of the earnest teacher in their midst. Mothers confide their perplexities, the minister presents his difficulties, the civic officer seeks conference—the entire village looks to the Spelman teacher and finds in her a counselor and friend.
Among the daughters of Spelman who have entered upon a life of self forgetting labor is Mrs. S. C. J. Bryant of this city. She completed the high school course in 1901. Later she took the degree of bachelor of theology at Morehouse college. Her husband, Dr. P. J. Bryant, is pastor of Wheat Street Baptist church, the membership of which is something over 5,000. Mrs. Bryant is a woman of many and varied interests, being state president of the Woman's Missionary and Educational society and vice president of the national Baptist convention.
Besides being a leader in church matters, she is also a vitally active member of numerous committees for the betterment of the home, the school and the community. Despite the manifold demands upon her time and strength, she has added to her cares by starting a preparatory and industrial school. Her inspiration came from seeing members of the Wheat Street church, keenly anxious to be about the King's business, burning with zeal, but unable to plan, to execute, to bring to fruition, because of the lack of proper training. Looking into their eager faces, she read her master's message.
On Sept. 4, 1909, the Bryant school was opened in five small rooms over a grocery store. The enrollment that year was 175 with four teachers. The brave spirit of this woman, her clear vision and wise management, gained for the school friends who made it possible to close the year free of debt. Now there are eight teachers and 275 pupils. Thirty-eight of these are in the kindergarten department.
A recent visit to this school at night was of unique interest. The rooms over the grocery store, in which the school is still held, are in size 12 by 15. Two classes were being conducted in each. There are no desks in these rooms, and the blackboards are very poor. From 7:30 until 10 o'clock these grown people who have worked hard all day pore over their books with an eagnerness which is pathetic. Some of them walk six and seven miles to get here. One woman, who conducts a school of her own of sixty pupils during the day, attends here at night and selzes with avidity every possible scrap of knowledge so as to have a bit of new mental food for her children on the morrow.
One man, long grown, is now able to manage his business owing to three years' drill with Mrs. Bryant and her helpers. Among other things which impresses one is the marvelous patience of the teachers, for to instruct men and women of the age of sixty-five and over in the rudiments is not calculated to soothe the nerves. The hours while most of these teachers devote to their profession are from 8:30 a. m. to 10 p. m., and all this for the princely worry of $25 a month or less!

Wealth of Information Contained In Communication From Officials In Regard to Service Accorded Afro-Americans on Southern Railways—Diplomacy of Booker T. Washington.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Tuskegee, Ala.—The efforts of Dr. Booker T. Washington to lay before the officials of the various railroads in the south the grievance of the colored people of that section on account of the poor accommodations provided on the trains of said railroads for members of the race have been successful.
The task has required a deal of time, energy and thought and is easily the most original piece of individual work for racial betterment in public travel during the first quarter of 1914.
The attitude of the railroad managers and the manner in which they regard the matter as presented by Dr. Washington may be considered as quite favorable to our cause, as the following communications from the officials of a number of the southern roads show:
Not True of the Georgia Railroads.
Mr. Charles A. Wickersham, general manager of the Georgia railroad, says: "Replying to your letter of Oct. 13, addressed to Mr. Thomas K. Scott, beg leave to advise that the Georgia railroad provides separate waiting rooms at stations for both white and colored passengers, and they are both furnished with equal accommodations and are given the same service. On practically all of our passenger trains separate toilets are provided for both men and women colored passengers; also separate smoking rooms.
"In other words, the passenger train accommodations for whites are substantially the same. In fact, at the present time the majority of the cars assigned to the colored travel consist of our newest equipment. On most of our trains the news agents carry their supplies in the compartments set aside for the whites, but on some trains, where the color travel is light and the white travel is heavy, the supplies are stored in the colored compartment."
Mr. H. U. Mudge, president of the Chicago. Rock Island and Pacific Railway company, writes: "I wish to thank you for calling my attention to same and to say that I have read it with great interest. The Rock Island company does not operate very largely in the southern states, and in most of the territory where they have laws segregating Negroes, the Negro travel is such a very small proportion that it seems impossible to furnish them with as good facilities as are furnished for the white travel, which is the great bulk of travel. Notwithstanding, we try to do the best we can.
"I do not believe the conditions are quite as bad on Rock Island trains in the south as you state are generally true in that territory, but I am taking the matter up with our operating vice president with the view of doing the very best we can to give the colored people in that territory equal facilities. In several of the states through which we operate-viz, Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas, it is my opinion that the segregation law works a hardship not only upon railways, but upon the colored people."
Trying to Give the Race a Square Deal.
Mr. George G. Crawford, president of of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, replied as follows:
"I wish to acknowledge receipt of your letter of recent date addressed to me as president of the Birmingham Southern railroad, regarding improvements in the accommodations extended the Negro race on the railroads. Our Birmingham Southern railroad does a very small passenger service, which is confined to a train run Saturday nights from Edgewater to Birmingham. It is, however, a subsidiary of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, which has a very large number of Negro employees. We are trying to give the Negro a square deal in the Tennessee company and, I think, have made some progress in that direction." Mr. R. D. Pusey, general passenger agent of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company, says:
"I want to thank you for calling my attention to the matter of space occupied by news agents in cars assigned for the accommodation of our colored patrons. This will be given immediate attention and instructions issued to the news company that their agents must place their wares in the smoking compartment assigned to white passengers. "The other matters mentioned are being given serious consideration by this company, appreciating fully the importance and having sincere desire to furnish satisfactory accommodations to our colored patrons, as well as to the whites. On our more important trains all equipment must be vestibulated and especially constructed for these trains. Some of the cars assigned to colored patrons are now having smoking rooms for these patrons placed therein, and others will be so arranged as rapidly as it is convenient to shop them."
After four in our family had died of consumption I was taken with a frightful cough and lung trouble, but my life was saved and I gained 87 pounds through using DR. KING'S NEW DISCOVERY W. R. Patterson, Wellington, Tex. PRICE 50c and $1.00 AT ALL DRUGGISTS. Send an old magazine to Dr. H. H. Jones, Missionary to Klay, Liberia and Africa, and help him to enjoy his work. Hear the Macedonian cry.

Thawing frost and April rains chill you to the very marrow, you catch cold—head and lungs stuffed—you are feverish—cough continually and feel miserable—you need Dr. King's New Discovery. It soothes inflamed and irritated throat and lungs, stops cough, your head clears up, fever leaves, and you feel fine. Mr. J. T. Davis, of Stickney Corner, Me., "was cured of a dreadful cough after doctor's treatment and all other remedies failed." Relief or money back. Pleasant—children like it.
