Discriminators to be Prosecuted. Albany, N. Y.—Attorney General Carmody, a Democrat, has sent letters to district attorneys in several counties asking that they immediately prosecute proprietors of summer sesorts that have placed advertisements in violation of the Levy Civil Rights Law, which prohibits publication of the fact that a place or public resort will refuse any or all of its accommodations to a person on account of his race, religion or color. Several resorts are said to have disregard this provision of the law. Through the efforts of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other agencies, numerous cases of violations of provisions of the Levy law, especially in New York City, have been brought to the attention of the author: ities, and several convictions have been secured The law was passed during the closing days of the Sulzer administration and has been in operation for some months. It was designed to forestall the growing tendency to discriminate against certain classes of patrons who outside of their race or creed, are other-desirable. Projudice on German Liner. Race prejudice was responsible tor the Koenign Luise sailing from Locus Point with out Carl Murphy, an instructor in German at Howard University, Washington. The vessel is one of the finest of thh North German Dlopd line. Mr. Murphy has planned to spend the summer in study at one of the German universities. He bought a ticket to Bremen, but was after informed that he would have to take his meals in the smoker. He refused to be discriminated against and demanded that his ticket money be refunded. He will probably sail from New York the latter part of this month. A mass meeting in the interest of Howard University washeld recently in New York Dr. Alan Hudson, a while man, spoke and proposed a resolution that the alumni of Howard write President Wilson promising to stand by him in the present crisis in the Mexican situation.

On May 16 1913, Rev. C. O. Smith of Hutchinson, Kan., made his first visit to the city of Cheyenne, the metropolis of the west. he at once entered upon the evangelistic duties with the Second Baptist and labored three weeks; not so much for the conversion of souls as to find the real spiritual condition of the church. At that time I regret to say that the church was in a bad condition spiritually. Everybody was discouraged and like sheep all had gone astray. Notwithstanding this deplorable condition some of the few members imagined they deserved an executive ability in Rev. Smith and tendered him a call to its pastorate unanimously. The Rev. Smith seemed to be a man that looked on the bright side of life and its affairs with an enthusiastic belief that God will make all things right with them who trust him; and with this assurance on July 12th, 1913, Rev. Smith courageously and prayerfully entered upon the arduous task of trying to bring peace out of confusion among the Baptist people, and while here he engaged in religious pursuits and his conflicts and hardships were many, so many that it took a man like the Reverend, who had previous years of military training in the gallant toth U. S. Cavalry to adhere to the voice of the Great Captain; "Do as I command you and lo I am with you to the end. RG. Smith in every conceivable way proved himself a christian gentleman, a gospel preacher, a unique worker and a pastor in every sense of the Work. He is not a tyrant but affable in all his dealings with men; positive in business. Since entering upon the work, he has succeeded in getting the church together and for the first time in its history it can be said by all that perfect unison exists among the members in the Second Baptist church. Besides getting the church back in the Association, Rev. Smith has paid off a debt that has been hanging over the piano for a long time and also remodeled and cleaned the church house, until we are not afraid to assert that the Cheyenne Baptist church is the neatest and cleanest House of worship of any Negro church west of Mason and Elixon. It is not material what Annual Meeting of Federation of Denver Carries Off Honors Again. Meet In Denver Next Year. Presiding Elder Ward and Rev. Fant Present. $ ^{2} $ Club Women and Delegates who attended the Salt Lake City Convention. Presiding Elder Ward and Rev. Fant attend. SESSION BEGINS. On Wednesday morning at 9:30 the eleventh annual meeting of the Federated Clubs of Colorado and Jurisdiction was called to order by the president, Mrs. Mary Baker. The delegates and visitors joined heartily in singing the federation song "Onward" by Mrs. Eva C. Buckner, after which devotionals were led by Rev. Fant, pastor of Trinity A. M. E. church, Salt Lake City, Utah. The president then appointed the pages and the committees on courtesies, resolutions, press, ways and means, and credentials. The minutes of the last day's session, held in Cheyenne, June, 1913, were read and adopted at this point. The delegates were then requested to give their credentials to the committee, after which roll was called and the clubs reported their ways and means money to the committees. While waiting for this committee to arrange their reports, the clubs reported the new work being done by them. One of the Pueblo clubs reported that in addition to musical studies this year, they had taken up dramatic art. A Denver club reported having made a special study of macramme work. These were the only new features introduced by any of the clubs. At this point Mrs. Shaw of Ogden gave an instrumental solo, which was appreciated by all. Departmental chairmen then reported. These reports were made on parliamentary law and an extensive paper on professionals. After this the convention offered a prayer of thanksgiving to the Divine Creator for having blessed Colorado and jurisdiction in that, of all the membership of over 500 there had not been one death among the club members during the past club year. The convention then entered into a race. which isted until 2 p. m. Afternoon Session This session was opened with the Federation song, "Marching to Victory," by Mrs. J. B. Young, followed by devotionals. The state officers then reported. The various amendments were discussed and voted upon, which resulted as follows: 1. Representatives of nine clubs shall constitute a quorum. 2. The fares of the president, secretary, treasurer, executive chairman and corresponding secretary shall be paid by the convention. 3. Roberts' Rules of Order shall be the parliamentary guide of the convention. 4. Mrs. Thenas Bush Stuart was elected chairman of ways and means and Mrs. Laura Hill was elected chairman of the Executive Board. Evening Session. The evening session opened with the Federation song, "Onward," and devotionals. Solos were rendered by Mr. Sam. Stuart and sister Mrs. Reed Miss Freddie Howell and Mrs. J. S Donald of Salt Lake and Mrs. Lillian Jones of Denver. As Governor Spry was not present, Lawyer Gastry gave us welcome on behalf of the state and Rev. Fant for the churches, while hirs. Mayo, president of the Progressive club (our hostesses) warmly greeted us on behalf of the clubs. These welcomes were so cordial that we immediately entered into their spirit and made ourselves quite at home. The response was by Mrs. Bennett of Colorado Springs. The president's annual message, by Mrs. Mary Baker of Cheyenne, Wyo. was full of inspiration. She reviewed the financial and political situation, together with the various labor struggles, but pointed out a ray of light through the blackest cloud. She advised and recommended that the clubs unite in directing attention to all phases of domestic science and arts, as the home was woman's domain. That we give attention to higher moral training of the young; also emphasize the responsibility of parents to child, home, society, etc., and also recommended that the federated clubs of this jurisdiction take some active steps toward forming a Western Fed- eration. This would increase interest and strengthen club work in this section and be a boon to all women. Mrs. Dorcas Watson then made a report of the work being done by the rescue department and the orphanage home. She then made an appeal to the public for a public collection, at which $31.72 was given. Final Sessions. The Thursday session opened with the customary devotionals, roll call and minutes. Reports from Humane, Music, Social Science, Mothers' Clubs and Domestic Science chairmen were listened to. The domestic science chairman reported that one club in the jurisdiction had this department in their club in working condition, giving practical demonstrations. Two divisions of the symposium, "What the Negro is doing in Theatricals and Lodges," were discussed. A committee was appointed to revise the constitution, consisting of one member each from Denver, Colorado Springs, Pueblo, salt Lake and Chayenne. The entire amount of ways and means money, $38.25 for this year, was voted to the orphanage at Pueblo. During the recess period that followed the Progressive club escorted the convention through the Mormon temple grounds. At the 2 o'clock session Mrs. B. F. Wilson presided. Miss Florence Williams gave a reading, "The Party," by Denear. Denver extended an invitation to the state to meet with her the second Tuesday in June, 1915, and Pueblo extended the executive board an invitation to meet as her guest. These invitations were heartily received. Denver also extended the invitation to the executive board. The state president's fare and expenses to Wilberforce were allowed. Mrs. Lena Ward and President Baker of Cheyenne gave two very interesting discussions of the song of Solomon from a dramatic and a spiritual interpretation, one contending that it was simply a drama, a play in which the emotions and passions of human beings are beautifully depicted, while the other claimed it was of divine inspiration or origin, an allegory in which Christ is the lover or bridegroom and the church the maiden or bride. A solo was rendered by Mrs. Gardenhire of Pueblo. It was unanimously decided to have the musical numbers at Harmony hall that evening. At 9:45 Corresponding Secretary Miss Nelline Howard called the meeting to order and the minutes of the afternoon session were read and adopted. A short musical program was rendered, which consisted of solos by Mesdames McSwine, Shaw, Gardenhire and Jones, after which the meeting adjourned to meet in Denver, Colo., June, 1915. And the delegates departed to their various homes with most pleasant recollections of kindness and excellent treatment received at the hands of the Progressive Club of Salt Lake. Prizes were offered as follows: By Self Improvement and Social for best list and satin. By Sunshine, for best painting. By Dahlia Art of Colorado Springs, for best cut work. By Taka A. & L. for best crochet. By Searchlight of Cheyenne, for best cross stitch or darn. By Carnation, Denver, for greatest variety. By 20th Century, Denver, for best macramme.

Prises were received as follows: Masons Annual Celebration of St. John The Baptist's Day The Masonic order will turn out in full regalia tomorrow to have their annual thanksgiving sermon preached at Campbell A. M. E. church by Rev. Jas. Washington. This will mean that all Masons in the city in good standing will participate and make the occasion one to be honored and appreciated by both laymen and all fraternal brothers. Denver feels proud of her Masonic orders and appeals to the public to encourage the brothers by lending their mosupport and presence in the Masonic way of making a public acknowledgemet of God's good to them and their order. Six Negroes received degrees at the 160th commencement of Columbia University June 3, 1914. They were the only representatives of the race in the class numbering 2,000. Those receiving the degree of Master of Arts were Clayton F. A. Freneh, A. B., L. B., L. M.; Byron Armstrong, A. B., Samuel E. Rose, A. B., B. D., and E. R. Bell. Ralph A. Young A.

Self Improvement & Social, for best crochet and lace. Carnation Art, for best liet and satin. Twentieth Century, for greatest variety and macramme. Pond Lily, for best cut work and cross stitch. Taka Art & Literary, for best punch and drawn work. The 20th Century Art retained the state banner for greatest variety of work. The S. I. & S. received the prize for the largest amount of ways and means money. Resolutions were unanimously adopted thanking the Progressive club of Salt Lake for their hospitality and the churches and people of Salt Lake for the kind way in which they received the delegates. A committee was also appointed by unanimous vote to draft resolutions expressing the favor of the convention for prohibition and temperance. The concert given Tuesday evening at the Baptist church was a rare treat and the reception tendered the convention Thursday evening, together with a most delightful trip to Salt Air given the convention by the Progressive club, are pleasant features that will ever linger in the memories of the delegates. We were loth to leave our western hostesses, but duty called and we could obey. On account of the great distance, a number of delegates and presidents were unable to attend. For this reason a number of discussions and papers were omitted and in my humble opinion the convention was not up to the standard of past years, but the musical selections were above par, showing thoroughness in preparation and a good taste in choice. Stein Historian & Web and Military Bureau FIVE CENTS A COPY. Washington, D. C.—Four Afro-American clerks were dropped from the Post Office department here last week, Messrs. Brown, Wilkinson, Butler and Wood. The three former were employed at the main office, and the latter at Station "F." When Wood reported for work Monday he was informed that there was no work for him. Messrs. Brown, Wilkinson and Butler were dropped last Wednesday. At Station "F," where Brown, Wilkinson and Butler were employed, it was given out that the work on which twelve clerks were employed was abandoned at that station, but good care was taken of the nine white clerks, who were sent to the main office, the Afro-American clerks being dismissed from the service. The postmaster is a white Texan, the postmaster gesneral is a white Texan, and both are carrying out the policy of this administration respecting Afro-American clerks—dismiss or demote. In a few more weeks, on July 1st, other race employes in other departments and bureaus are slated for dismissal or demotion, according to report. The many government employees who are being made to feel the Wilson administration's hatred for the Afro-American as a government employee are not very considerate in their condemnation of Bishop Walters who, a year and a half ago, advocated Wilson's election. The iron hand of oppression, and the political guillotine does not prompt the kindliest feelings for the A. M. E. Zion prelate on the part of those who are being made the victims. It is altogether likely, when the Texans who preside over the post office department feel the public has forgotten the dismissal of these long experienced clerks, that white men will be appointed to fill the vacancies. Judge Terrell was reappointed and confirmed, but the price of that $2,500 appointment is being paid with the dismissal of many worthy and efficient Afro-American clerks from the government service.-Chicago Defender.

The Presbytery of Denver held its summer session at the First_Presby- terian church of Golden last Tuesday. Many items were postponea to the September meeting. Among the items of interest touching the colored work of the Presbytery are the granting of $600.00 supplementary to the salary of the Rev. Jas. T. Smith, 8. T. B., M. D., who will be assistant pastor to Rev. ‘Thos-Hazell for the Union Presbyteri- an church at Dearfleld next October, and succeeding Rev. J. A. Ramsay, tne student-pastor. The minimum salary of $1,000 will be paid Mr. Smith. The Presbytery also voted $100 for the transportation of this minister and his family from Madison, Ga.; to Den- ver. .-om the many reports Mr. Ram- say is making good at Dearfield. The People’s church was removed from the roll of churches receiving aid from the Board of Home Missions in New York. Dearfield being a mission to the People’s, legal action was taken to install Rev.

We don’t know just now who will, but who- ever does, they won't have to provide anything to eat, for James Smith and Frank D, McPherson are going to kill a yearling and have a barbecue. Mr. Smith was the first to file and the first to prove up om his ranch. Mr. McPherson was the second to file. Mr. Smith and Mr. McPherson want to “set ‘em up” to folks when they come up on the Industrial excursion. We suppose it will be about watermelon time, Labor day or some other day about that time, It will pay you to wait for the Dearfield industrial ex- cursion, for they are going to have one of those old-fashioned times.

New York.—Representatives of the United Colored Democracy of the State of New York have written to Gover- nor Glynn suggesting that Major Charles Young, United States cavalry, who is an officer at present detailed as military attache to Monrovia, Liberia, and assisting in the instruction of the Liberian army, be made colonel of the national guard regiment of colored mt- Iitia authorized by the legislature of the state in 1913. Major Young is the only Negro off cer of his rank in the regular army He entered West Point in June, 1884, and will have completed thirty years’ service next month. Under army reg- ulations an officer can retire, with the consent of the president, after thirty Years’ service, and the prominent col- ored men of this city, who have been fighting for years for the privilege of organising a regiment, plan to bave Major Young detailed to active service after bis retirement and assigned tc organize the authorized regiment {r this state. ‘This plan would continue Major Young on his active service pey of $3,000 a year. Robert N. Wood is president of thi United Colored Democracy, and th other officers include F. F. Peresett. William H. Austin, James D. Carr John T. Thorne, D, Macon Webster, Henri I. Smith, Cornelius A. Hughes Owen M. Wailer, W. W. Hanley, F. Q Morton, J. Frank Wheaton, Edmund 0. Austin, Samuel W. Jackson and Rufas L. Perry. The letter to Governor Glynn suggesting Major Young for colonel of the regiment was in part as follows: “The adjutant general has postponed organization of the colored regiment, owing to the fact that hot a sufficient | number of candidates passed the ex- amination for officers. It bas again been proposed that the regiment be commanded by white officers. I desire herewith to renew our objections to this proposal and to suggest a practi cable means for the expeditious organ- ization of the regiment in accordance | with the plain Intent of the statute that makes mandatory provision for it “To place white officers in command of the regiment would be a clear viola- tion of the statute. The statute pro: vides for a colored regiment. Nowhere in the military law Is the term ‘regi ment,’ standing alone. used to describe only the privates and noncommissioned officers of such a military unit as dis- tinguished from Its commissioned off cers, but everywhere in that law this term, so used. nicans the entire unit including all officers in comunnd.” The letter also sets forth debates in the legisiature to support the couten tion that advocates of the new regi ment act refused compromise measures providing for white officers. ‘The letter continues: “Intelligent and disinterested colored citizens of this atate do not now desity nor bare ther ever desired to have a regiment commanded by white officers. If we are not to bare » regiment in which colored men way aspire to any rank for which they sre fitted then ve want no regiment.” UNION UNIVERSITY NORTH.

PLEADS CAUSE — OF HIS PEOPLE Work of Dr. M. M. Penton Merits Praise. MAN OF BROAD LEARMING. ae So oe Atlanta, Ga.— Anything pertaining to dhe material uplift of the Afro-Ameri- can folk {s of vital interest to the mil- lions of the race who live in the south. There are many well trained men in the race silently working for the mass- es without belng heralded over the country. Among such characters is Dr. M. M. Ponton, who is a resident of this city. By bis quiet and sane methods of doing things for the bene- fit of the race he has recently accom- plished something that will make the entire race bis debtor. Dr. Ponton bad the pleasure of meet- Ing the late John C. Martin, a man of wealth, some ten years ago and be came-a close friend of the millionaire. He interested Mr. Martin in the race and was instrumental in securing the large fund which was used to better ducational conditions among Afro- American ministers in the south, through which bundreds, if not thoa- sands, have greatly benefited, irrespec- tive of denomination. Mr. Martin fur- uished all of the money for this ape- tific fund, known as the John C. Mar- tion educational fund, of which Dr. Ponton was field superintendent. It looked rather dark for the race, so far as the moneys it was receiving from this educational fund of Mr. Martin were concerncd, when he died. At his death a protest was entered against his 1912 will, which restricted the money from going to a nonsec- tarlan board for distribution. Being och a large sum of money, there was much concern felt on the part of those interested in the education of the Ne ro race. Dr. Ponton became deeply interest- 2 in the will and made a strennous \aght for the race, and his success in Hi ie? AGS a” Sy } SS F jsaving to the race a large sum of money for education is inspiring. Tbe following letter was received from Mr. L'Amoreaux, a member of one of the leading law firms of the country. It ts in part as follows: “We wish to congratulate you and your brethren of the colored race on the substantial benefits that will be derived by your people through the board of freedmen, located at Pitts- burgh, which we understand bas tn charge the fled work among your peo- ple. The board of freedmen is one of the three Presbyterian boards which are residuary legatees under the Mar- tin will, of which Wing and I are ex- ecutors. This Is the will which has been admitted to probate and under which the boant of freedmen will re- ceive a very lurge legacy upon the dis- tribution of the estate.” Dr. Ponton recently returned from New York, where he was looking after the Interest of the race in this respect. Although be ts one of the leailing fac- tors in the great A. M. KE. denomina- Uon, he ts so broad in his efforts for the material uplift of the race that be is regarded as nonsectarian in his views when it comes to race develop: ment. He Ix a xtrong advocate of pro- tmoting educational institutions for our people. He founded the Turner The- slogical seminary of Morris Brows tollege, this city. and was dean of this fepartment for seven years.

Entered as second class matter at the postoffice in the city of Denver, Colorado. Paris, France.—Jack Johnson is using the same tactics in preparing for his fight with Frank Moran that he employed in Australia when he was getting into shape to fight Tommy Burns for the championship. "Dady" Vienne, promoter of the Johnson-Moran contest called up Johnson's mansion the other morning, intending to speak to Johnson's valet Instead of the valet it was Johnson, who answered the telephone. Vienne was startled to hear Johnson's voice and asked him what he meant by being at home at 10 o'clock in the morning and wondering why he wasn't on the road working out, Johnson explained that he had already covered ten miles that morning. Instead of waiting until near noon to do his road work Johnson is out drilling when dawn breaks. He did the same thing in Australia and it worked well. By the time the average fighter rolls out of bed, Johnson has done half a day's work. The big champion is still conducting his afternoon teas. At these sessions Johnson does some real boxing, shadow fighting, bag punching, tosses the medicine ball, skips the rope and does numerous other things, to the delight of fashionable men and women who pay money for the privilege of seeing him train. It is noticeable that the majority of his followers are Americans. Many delight in the remark, "I knew him in Chicago." Whether they did or not they willingly plank down a five spot, the price of admission. It is persistently rumored that Theodore Roosevelt will be among the spectators at the fight and many have evinced a desire to attend since they heard the quiet "tip" that will not down. Johnson's present condition is a surprise to those who can judge. Several day's work has taken off several pounds of superfluous flesh. He has regained much of his speed and stamina, looks trained to the minute and his sparring shows little of a long period of idleness. All the talk and deduction about his being "all in" fails to make good. Experts agree that he is all there. Moran, too, is hard at the grind.

When the party arrived at Butry they could find nothing better than a back yard to work in, and the prospects were not particularly pleasant. It was no consolation to see Prince Murat's palatial country residence just opposite. But William Astor Chandler, one of the Americans interested in Moran, came along handsomely, had fitted up as fine a gymnasium as could be wished for, and Moran is now as happy as any sandboy. —Chicago Defender. RESCUERS OF HUMAN LIFE What Colored Men Have Done Along This Line. FEARLESS IN THEIR EFFORTS Story of Many Thrilling Incidents In Which True Manhood Asserted Itself Without Regard to Personal Danger at the Psychological Moment—Liberal Rewards in Money and Medals. Among the colored persons who have received prizes from the Andrew Carnegie hero fund for acts of bravery in preventing death or serious injury to individuals are the following named men. The character of the service performed is also given: John G. Walker, aged twenty-nine, Grayman, rescued William G. Obear, forty-four, quartermaster general, state militia of Georgia; Legare H. Obear, aged thirty-four, and Julia H. Obear, aged four months; E. W. Butler, aged fifty-five, mayor and lawyer, and Green Thomas, aged fifty-six, laborer, from a runaway at Madison, Ga. Walker tried to grab the rein of one of a team of spirited horses drawing a surrey containing Butler, Thomas and the Obears, but, failing, he ran alongside the horses a few steps and then grabbed the rein. It slipped through his hands to the loop, and at that moment Walker was struck by a wheel and knocked to the ground. The wheel passed over his legs below the knees and, still clinging to the rein, he was dragged along the street for about fifteen feet, when, as a result of his pulling back, the horses ran into an embankment and came to a stop. Walker was disabled nine days by his injuries. None of the occupants of the surrey was hurt. Award, bronze medal and $500 toward purchase of a home. Charles A. Smith, aged thirty-one, attempted to save Theodore Dilhof, aged forty-three, laborer, from suffocation. Cincinnati. O. Disregarding warnings to take precautions for his own safety, Smith descended a ladder in a twelve foot manhole of a sewer where Dilhof lay unconscious from carbonic acid gas and methane. When about two feet above Dilhof and as he was reaching toward him, Smith fell unconscious across Dilhof's boody. He was rescued about five minutes later and resuscitated. Dilhof was dead when taken out. Award, bronze medal and $1,000 toward purchase of a home. Elbert Gray aged sixteen, schoolboy, saved A. Calvin Stepp, aged two, from drowning, Canton, Tex., Feb. 5, 1912. Calvin fell feet first into a well thirteen inches in diameter and sixty feet deep, which contained eighteen inches of water, and unsuccessful efforts were made to rescue him with a hook. An uncle of the child went to a town three miles distant and there met Gray, to whom he told the circumstances. Make no mention of a reward, be asked Gray if he would enter the well, and Gray said he would. When Gray reached the well a rope was tied under his arms, and he was lowered into it. He put his shoulders forward in order to make his body smaller and held his hands down in front of him. He grasped Calvin and was hoisted to a point near the surface when Calvin's clothes gave way, and he again dropped to the bottom. Gray was hoisted to the surface. He was crying, being somewhat frightened. The skin had been rubbed off his arms in several places, and his face was scratched and bleeding. When asked he agreed to descend head first with a rope around his ankles, although he heard a man say that he (Gray) would be dead before he reached the bottom. Gray was lowered into the well head first, carrying a rope, and when he reached Calvin he tied the rope around him, and both were hoisted. Neither suffered any ill effects from the experience. Awarded medal and $2,000 for educational purposes as needed. Noldon Townsell, aged sixteen, porter, saved Emma E. Seale, aged four, from being run over by an auto truck, Waco, Tex., Feb. 1, 1912. As Townsell and Emma were crossing a street the child darted ahead of Townsell in front of an auto truck which was approaching at a speed of twelve miles an hour. Townsell sprang forward and landed between the child and the auto truck. He grasped Emma's shoulders and pushed her out of the path of the machine just as it struck him. He was knocked to the pavement, and one wheel ran over his leg. Emma was not injured, but Townsell suffered a broken rib and was otherwise injured, being disabled two months. Awarded bronze medal and $2,000 for educational purposes as needed. Nathan Record, aged thirty-one, farmer, helped a man named Law to save Luther F.. Anna and Nettie L. McClanahan and Dorris A. Stafford from drowning, Letot, Tex. May 24, 1908. Record accompanied Law to the rescue, and when swept away from the others, although slightly injured, succeeded in swimming to a tree, in which he remained until taken off in a boat in the morning. Award, bronze medal and $1,000 toward purchase of a farm. Arthur Lockett, aged thirty-three, fireman, saved Claude H. Potter, aged three, from being run over by a train, Jefferson, Ga.. May 9, 1912. Lockett was in the cab of a locomotive running twenty-five miles an hour, and his attention was attracted by a scream from the engineer. He saw Claude on the track, 150 feet ahead of the locomotive, and although the locomotive was swaying under an emergency application of the brakes he ran along the running board, jumped to the steam chest, thence to the bumper timber, and when the pilot was less than ten feet from Claude jumped to the track in front of the locomotive, which was then running eight or nine miles an hour. He fell forward as he struck the ground and grabbed Claude as he fell. With two strong, quick jerks he threw himself and the child off the track to safety. The locomotive was stopped when the pilot was thirty-five feet beyond the point of rescue. Award, silver medal and $1,000 for a worthy purpose, as needed. Beecher Roberts, aged seventeen, farm hand, helped two other men to rescue Thomas Ashcraft from a cave in a well, Tyler, Tex., April 16, 1912. Roberts reached the well after Wills and Gregory had been working in it for some time, and when he was asked to do so immediately had himself lowered. He scraped some sand from around Ashcraft's leg and then tied the rope to Ashcraft. Another rope was lowered to Roberts and both men were drawn out. Award, bronze medal and $500 for a worthy purpose, as needed. Mack Stallworth, aged thirty-three, oil tank cleaner, died saving Squire Bradford, colored, aged twenty-eight, oil tank cleaner, from suffocation, Port Arthur, Tex., June 25, 1910. Bradford was overcome in a tank car by gas which had formed in it. Stallworth entered the car through an opening fifteen inches in diameter and, grasping Bradford, lifted him up so that two men on the outside of the car could reach him. Bradford was got out, but Stallworth was overcome by the gas and was suffocated before he could be rescued. Bradford revived. Award, bronze medal and $30 a month for support of widow during her life or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for her son until he reaches the age of sixteen. James Pruitt, aged forty-four, farmer, saved Fritz F. Muller and attempted to save William Riehle from suffocation. This took place at Walhalla, S. C., May 20, 1911. Pruitt descended to assist Riehle rescue Muller. He tied a rope around Muller, and he and Muller were drawn to the surface. When Riehle failed to grasp the rope that was let down to him Pruitt was lowered into the well, but when part way down called to be drawn up. Pruitt was hoisted and was weak and unable to work for two weeks. Awarded silver medal and $500 toward purchase of a farm. Nathan Duncan, aged forty-one, farmer and well digger, rescued William O. Anderson, aged fifty-two, well digger, from a cave-in in a well, West Point, Tex., Aug. 5, 1907. Anderson was working in a well three feet in diameter forty feet below the surface when sand silt from the sides and buried him to his shoulders. For a distance of twenty feet above his head there was an unsupported wall of sand, from which other slides seemed imminent. Of the twelve or more men who gathered all were afraid to go to the aid of Anderson. Duncan was summoned and, fastening a rope to himself, said RAPID PROGRESS IN MOUND CITY BUSINESS IS GROWING FAST In Culture Also Colored Population of St. Louis is Showing the Way to Less Advanced Communities—Some of the Leaders of the Race and What They Are Doing. By BALPH W. TYLER. St. Louis.—Visiting this city as a representative of and in the interest of the National Negro Business league, I naturally went into conditions here more carefully than the casual visitor. Next to Washington perhaps St. Louis has been famed most for her colored society. Its large number of colored schoolteachers, drawn from every section of the country and representing the best institutions of higher education, gives to the city a cultured community, as Washington's more than 500 colored teachers give to that city a superior air of culture. Secure in their professions of culture and consciousness of much "higher" education, the colored people of St. Louis for years neglected that basic foundation for permanent and substantial progress—business. There is a revival on here now, a business revival, and, while not neglecting either culture or the so called "higher" education, the colored people of St. Louis, inspired by the achievements of colored business men in other cities and encouraged by its local Negro Business league, are branching out rapidly and successfully into various lines of activities. One of the most complete men's furnishing stores conducted by colored men in the country is to be found here in this city, conducted by Clark & Smith. The largest and most modern steam laundry, owned and operated by colored men, is one of St. Louis' beauted colored co-operative enterprises. The drug stores, print shops, grocery stores, newspapers and cafes are now equal to the best to be found in other parts of the country. The schools are among the best in the country—best buildings, best equipped, best managed and possessing a corps of the best prepared teachers. No city compares with St. Louis for the magnificence of its colored churches, and no city's colored pulpiteers surpass in eloquence and preparedness the colored ministers of this city nor in their race devotion. I was of course particularly interested in learning of business progress among our people. I ascertained, after four days' careful investigation, that the colored people of this city have $150,000 invested in business enterprises, that they own $250,000 worth of real estate and that the men and women engaged in business and professions are injecting into their work rare energy and an admirable personal service which makes for success. I also ascertained that the race is represented as owners and conductors of the following businesses: Men's furnishings, groceries, meat markets, drug stores, coffee and tea, undertakers, livery, shoe repairing, notion stores, printing, publishing, horsehoeing, theaters, cafes, laundry, hair culture, etc. I found the local Negro Business league, recently organized, under that splendid business man, W. C. Gordon, has become a very potent factor in propagating the doctrine of business and professional co-operation. While here every opportunity was offered to me to get at the real fact concerning the race's progress along business lines. In few places have I enjoyed greater courtesies. There are seven colored inwyers, seven colored dentists and twenty-one colored physicians. They are topnotchers in their respective professions and appear to be enjoying splendid practices which their ability deserves and warrants. Dr. Ernest Harris, Dr. Wilson and Dr. W. H. Mosby, the druggists, have indicated race progress with their modernly furnished and largely stocked drug stores, the former having two stores. O. K Robinson, one of the most public spirited race men I have had the good fortune to meet, is making splendid success with his modern, up to date printing establishment, and one must go far to find a cafe to equal in apointments and cuisine the one conducted by Mr. Ferguson. A few of the men who are pushing the business spirit among colored people in this city and who are uniting in their efforts to make the race commercially strong in Missouri's metropolis are C. K. Robinson, W. C. Gordon Dr. Ernest Harris, William Osborn, E. L. Williams, A. Russell, T. J. Nevins, R. H. Stanton, W. H. Mosby, with Messers, Ficklin, Ferguson, Calloway Clark and Smith. The cause of the race here in the Mound City is most ably championed by two enterprising newspapers which stand for the bowl among the members of the fourth state. It was while here I renewed an old acquaintance with Professor Richard Cole, principal of one of the colored schools, whom I knew familiarly years ago as Dick Cole of Cincinnati. He is still the vigorous man of twenty-five years ago and a splendid asset to the public school system. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS $150,000.00 Jacksonville, Fla., June 11, 1914.

THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the la- test scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promo- ting 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 these 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.

How R. N. Dett is Uplifting the Race Through Music. Norfolk, Va.—Music is one of the certain channels through which aspiring colored people can and do reach the hearts of sympathetic Americans. It affords the ambitious colored man, woman or child the effective medium of telling the thrilling story of the race's pain and hope, as well as the race's struggle toward the light of a better future. A successful concert here and there, a recognition of talent, a well balanced program, a new enthusiasm for the best music—these are signs of a new day for the Negro musician, proud of his race and prepared to make good in his calling. The Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Music club recently presented in recital R. Nathaniel Dett, head of the Hampton institute music department, whose work as a pianist and composer has already received the hearty indorsement and warm praise of competent musical critics. Mr. Dett has succeeded in making old and young alike join forces in rendering well and together the music of his race and that of the so called masters. What R. Nathaniel Dett has done and is doing to give his own people the benefit of good music and to demonstrate to white people the musical possibilities of the American Negro should be an encouragement to struggling colored men and women who wish to dignify the race's folk songs and to interpret the race's inner call to song. Mr. Dett played a number of his own compositions, including the "Magnolia" suite—(1) "Magnolias." (2) "The Deserted Cabin," (3) "My Ladylove." (4) "Mammy" and (5) "The Place Where the Rainbow Ends;" "In the Bottoms"—(1) Prelude ("Night"), (2) "His Song." (3) "Honey," (4) Barcarole ("Morning") and (5) Juba (dance); "Go to Sleep," "Carnival Waltz" and "Inspiration Waltzes." He also played Schytte's "Polonaise Brillante." Grieg's Nocturne, Rubinstein's Staccato Etude and Coleridge-Taylor's "Let Us Cheer the Weary Traveler." O. W.

Most of National Baptist Sunday School Congress. Beaumont, Tex.—Never before in the history of the Sunday school movement has there been more genuine enthusiasm over the work of the Sunday school than was shown here on Wednesday, June 10, when the ninth annual session of the Baptist National Sunday School congress was called to order in the presence of the largest and most representative gathering of denominational workers that ever assembled in any one city to take part in modern Sunday school work. The special trains were met by a regiment of boy cadets in their uniforms, and there was a trained choir under the direction of a special leader and hundreds of citizens in the company. Much attention was directed to the official congress special train, which arrived by way of New Orleans, bringing the chairman, the director, the secretaries and many of the departmental workers. A line of march was formed, and they were escorted, with banners flying and pennants outstretched to the breezes, led by a brass band, to the mammoth amphitheater constructed by the local committee for this special occasion. Two of the unique features of the parade were distinctively new innovations brought into the Sunday school congress, the boy cadets and the Negro Doll clubs. These two made up one division of the parade. The girls were dressed almost alike, and each carried a colored doll in her arms. The boys, with the cadet uniforms, marching in military precision, helped to increase the inspiration. Throngs of people filled the streets as the procession wound its way from the railroad station to the place of meeting. As soon as the procession arrived the local committee escorted the congress officials to the platform. Rev. C. H. Clark, D. D., chairman, presided, "Hall the Baptist, Congress" was sung and after a fervent invocation another song, "On Metakas and Galedas," was rendered. Rev. R. H. Boyd, D. D., director of the congress, delivered a splendid address on "Back on Texas Soll." Without further preliminaries, not ever waiting for the usual welcomes, this school of methods plunged into the work of the session. Three topics "Sunday School Teacher Training a Profession." "Demand For the Departmental Sunday School," and "The Conversion of the Child, the Slogan of the School," were taken up at the afternoon session. More than a dozen well prepared papers were read on these three subjects. After the adjournment at 5 o'clock demonstrations were given in the paraphernalia and exhibit department. At the evening session Beaumont gave a rousing welcome to all the Sunday school workers. About fifteen welcome addresses on behalf of every organization, denomination and business or profession were delivered. Throughout the sessions of the congress the workers confined themselves to the subjects outlined on the program. Each morning there were a Bible study conference and a special syllabus for the occasion. These conferences, like the other departmental meetings, were under the special supervision of well trained teachers. Some of the features of the gathering were the Metoka and Galeda demonstration Friday night, June 12, the annual congress concert Saturday night, June 13, and the first annual encampment of the A. F. Cadets, with dress and drill parades out at the "tented city;" occupying a few acres, in close proximity to the meeting place. The congress closed Monday evening. June 15, after six days of profitable labor in a most righteous cause. MEETING OF PUBLISHERS. Muskogee, Okla., to Entertain Press Association in August. Muskogee, Okla.—Newspaper men from all parts of the United States will gather in the Oil City of the West during the month of August to consider plans for the betterment of the craft. This is not the first meeting of the National Negro Press association to be held west of the Mississippi, but it will be the beginning of a better organization and will, no doubt, create more interest among the newspaper men in this section. Muskogee's preparations continue with clocklike precision. Committees of every description are working out well laid plans that have been outlined for the entertainment of the visiting newspaper men. Since their meeting in Nashville, Teun., last February, when the executive committee held its midwinter session, all of the hundred or more members of the association have been looking toward Muskogee, and now the entering wedge has been made so that when the official call is sent out from Baltimore the pilgrimage of newspaper men, correspondents, publishers and editors will be turned toward the west. The corresponding secretary's office in Nashville has kept everything moving. The Reciprocal News service that was inaugurated immediately after the midwinter session has proven a wonderful success. Other items looked forward to for accomplishment in August are the final disposition of the standardization of advertising and some recommendations for the inauguration of the plate service, together with the report of the committee appointed as a permanent boosting organization for the association and the report of the committee on the cipher code to be used exclusively by newspaper men belonging to the association by which they will be able to transmit messages among themselves. Luckie School Closes With an Opera. The Luckie school in Houston, Tex. of which Professor J. N.

NIS RISE TO PROMINENCE Interesting Story of a Yale College Graduate Who Was Born on a Plantation In Anderson County, South Carolina, "Over the River"—Gifted Orater and Finished Scholar. Talladega, Ala.—From obscurity and meager circumstances to a position of prominence and influence is the record of one of the most remarkable men of the race, Professor William Pickens of Talladega college in this town. He is an example of what can be accomplished by a young man through industry, honesty and reliability. Professor Pickens, like most men of the race who have made a place in life, was not born in a palace, but comes from slave parents. His life is an inspiration to the boys of his race. As an orator and entertainer he takes his place in the front rank and his services are very much sought in all parts of the country. Anderson county, South Carolina, near the little town of Pendleton, is the place of Professor Pickens' birth, Jan. 25, 1881. It was in the neighborhood called "over the river" and on a farm at that. It is needless to say that his parents were not educated, but they could read and spell a little in a large print New Testament. Mr. Pickens was about two years old when his parents moved from "over the river" to "Price's place." There they [Name] WILLIAM PICKENS. lived in a one room cabin, near the great house of the landowner. After a year or two another moving day was inaugurated, and his parents moved from Price's to Clark's place, a more desirable location and nearer Pendleton. It was at this time that William got his first sight into education and became acquainted with the English alphabet, which was learned so readily that his sister took delight in leading him to school, although he was then in the neighborhood of two years under school age. The schoolhouse was, of course, the characteristic school building of that period—built of logs, with one door and one window, the window having no panes and being closed by a board shutter, which swung on leather hinges. Persuasion to study and good deportment consisted of a well seasoned hickory switch, a cone shaped paper "dune cap" and a stool on which the offender must stand on one foot for an enormous length of time. The Pickenses changed residence offender than any family in that section of the country. In speaking of their moving William Pickens himself says that his parents must have moved at least twenty times up to the time he reached the age of eleighteen years. The next move was to Argenta, Ark.. in the winter of 1800. This was a real move cityward and with a view of carrying out what the parents so much desired, and that was educating their children. This prospect so stirred the heart of young William Pickens that he learned to write at home before the school opened in the fall or before he could enter, because there was work to be done and means had to be got, so that all started to school in the fall of 1801. Many were the experiences of the young man between that time and the time of his finding his way to Talladega college, for he had determined that it was possible to make it through college. Although he did not have wealth he had health and muscle, and that with three ten dollar bills. This was the beginning for higher things. His impressions made on the teachers, his making the freshman class and many other things of merit by this young man attracted the attention of all connected with the college, and step by step he was put to the front, sent to the north and east until he found his way into Yale college. Professor Pickens' record at Yale is well known. All will remember how he carried off the prizes, how he won fame and how at this time through that work he is regarded as one of the most finished scholars of the race. He is a worthy example for the young boys of his race. Qualities In the Life of a Former Schoolteacher Which Have Made Him a Power In the Practice of His Profession — Leader In Movements For Racial Advancement. Bowling Green, Ky.—One of the foremost citizens in this city and section of the state is Dr. O. D. Porter, a practicing physician of high standing and known ability. He is a native of this town and received his early education in the public schools. Possessing a bright mind, he advanced rapidly, and after finishing the prescribed course of study he taught in the county school. His ability to get the best results from his pupils soon attracted wide attention. In order to better prepare himself for life's work he entered Fisk university, Nashville, Tenn., in 1884. By persist- MANSFIELD O. D. PORTER, M. D. ence in his studies he took rank among the best in his class. Having to provide the money for his expenses single handed, Dr. Porter taught school both in Tennessee and Texas at various times-dearing his college course. He graduated from Fisk university in the class of 1901, with the degree of bachelor of arts. After his graduation at Fisk Dr. Porter entered the Meharry Medical college at Nashville, Penn., where after three years of hard study he graduated, returned to his home, passed his medical examination and began the practice of his profession. By close application to business, painstaking and courteous to all in his dealings, he has won success and is held in high esteem by the public. Dr. Porter attributes much of his success to Mrs. Porter, who is always on the alert in the home to relieve her husband of such things as would take him from his business or studies. She was a Miss Carrie Bridges of Macon, Miss., before becoming Mrs. Porter. She was educated at Fisk university and is well fitted both by education and experience in public life to preside over the exacting duties of a busy house-hold. The public takes keen interest in Dr. Porter's work. The white physicians have no hesitancy in sitting in consultation with him because they know his worth and ability as a physician, and therefore value very highly his opinion in cases which require rare skill and experience. Dr. Porter is a former president of the National Medical association, having served from 1900 to the annual meeting in 1901. His annual address upon retiring from the presidency of the association was replete with helpful suggestions, many of which have since crystallized into tangible form for the good of the profession. He is one of the founders of the State Medical association of Kentucky, of which he is still a member. He is thoroughly interested in all business, social or benevolent movements for the advancement of the race in this city and vicinity, and never refuses to give encouragement to the struggling young men and women of the race. As busy as Dr. Porter is with matters as above indicated, he devotes time to religious work in his church in an official capacity. Dr. Porter believes in race co-operation along all lines, and his willingness to help his people by serving at the head of many organized bodies for uplift in this city is an evidence of his sincerity.
