Capt. Townsend Jackson now of Tulsa, Okla., but formerly of Memphis, Tenn., is an interesting character. For 15 years he was connected with the police department and has the honor of being considered one of the bravest, steadiest and best officers in Memphis, black or white. He was the Organizer and President of the Harrison and Morton League of 1000 Negroes for the State of Tennessee and through their influence received many positions in the Treasury Department at Washington. He was offered a prominent position but declined it owing to business reasons. Capt. Jackson was the first Negro jailor of Memphis as well as its first Justice of Peace. He was the head of the McClelland Guards, who always protected all the Negroes who desired to vote during election and while they were organized and active on bloodsheds, no lynchings and no burnings took place. This lawful organization had the support of some of the prominent Republicans and the best Democratic followers of the Union and many of the slave-holding class.
About six years ago Captain, who is a barber by trade and a real estate man associated with the great "Bob Church of Memphis" left Memphis and established a home in Tulsan, Okla., and while there through his manly, positive, outspoken manner he has succeeded in winning many white and Negro friends. In speaking to the Eastern Star June 7, 1914, he said, among other things;
"I am speaking the sentiments of that class of men and women of the race of Oklahoma who are considering the ideals which should determine and control the thought and deeds of the people whom we represent. I, in behalf of this order, congratulate our country upon its era of peace and prosperity Now, my friends, while the country is at peace and this order is properous, there are, nevertheless, many grave problems claiming the attentions of all serious Americans among which is the relationship of all mankind under the flag. I believe that the owning of property gives the race anchorage in community life; that it develops a consciousness of manhood and womanhood and that such ownership has moral value, since it implies thrift, economy and sense of responsibility. It makes one alert, useful and conscious citizen in his community. Let each member of the race own his own home. I believe that the schools have been established in society for its own preservation. The needs of society require that the largest and fullest training shall be

given to those women and men of our society who are to be the leaders of the race. At the same time, no child should be denied the opportunity of the best possible elementry education accompanied by such normal training as be suited to its strength and degree of development.
I believe, my brothers, that vocational training should find a place in all secondary education. I believe that the best interest of these orders are promoted by giving to each of its members an equal chance to participate in the political, commercial and industrial life of the nation. Any kind of legislation which wrongs one member of the race must ultimately wrong all. The common carriers in some parts of the country which make ample provisions for one part of the traveling public; but, fail to provide for another part; and suffer ladies and children to be placed in the most indecent situation, wrongs the entire body of society.
CAPT. T. D. JACKSGN.
We must condemn any legislation or practice which prescribes a qualification for one voter that does not apply to all. Such a denial is entirely undemocratic and fraught with mischief. I believe that the press of the country, whether daily, weekly or monthly, exerts immense influence, too frequently however. The power of the press is abused. This order, while approving of all measures giving freedom to the press, insists that a race should not be held responsible for the crime of any individual of the race by the practice so commonly in vogue of the American press of almost invariably mentioning the race stock of certain races in connection with the crimes of individuals of those races, thus indicating the race as well as the individuals, or at least, creating a presumption in the public mind against the race indicated."
Captain Jackson is a true race man and is visiting Captain Froman and Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Cooper of this city. He intends to locate in Colorado probably in Doarfield. He is a widower and has ample money to carry out his business plans.
rounded and really made possible origin, of some of the difficulties that have been encountered, due both to race prejudice and to political difference, and also gave statistics showing the nature and extent of the work, and the vast amount of good that is being accomplished there. He extolled in highest terms of praise the Hon. W. P. Motley, who though a southerner and a democrat, was really the savior of this department to the Negroes, when he was a member of the board. Being the official representative of the hospital and health board, Dr. Tompkins was the one best fitted to give the facts in the development of this institution, and in doing so he was careful to give credit where it was due, expressing a regret that so much incorrect information has been circulated at different times, and particularly on the occasion of the recent visit of Dr. Booker T. Washington, when because of being misinformed by others, he made a serious error concerning the hospital in his speech before the public.
A splendid commencement address was delivered by Rev. H. T. Kealing, president of Western University, and after listening to the oratorical, logical and inspiring treat that held his audence, spellbound each one present felt that the

master of ceremonies had not erred in proclaiming him second to none, only Booker T. Washington, though the last part might have been omitted.
The music was furnished by the combined choruses of Western University and Allen Chapel, under the leadership of Prof. R. G. Jackson, and surpassed even the standard of the unequalled organist and director of the west. A special feature was the inimitable rendition in warbling tones of a solo, that made her audience think of her as one of the birds about whom she sang, by that Negro Melba, Miss Effie Grant.
The presentation of diplomas was made by Dr. George Pipkin, superintendent of the colored department of the general hospital and the presentation of Pins by Miss Harriet Leck, superintendent of nurses. The invocation and benediction was pronounced by Rev. W. H. Thomas, pastor of Allen Chapel.
After an incarceration of more than two years in the state penitentiary with the death sentence hanging over him, and after Supreme Court had decided that, Harris did not have a fair trial, a white jury of fairminded men with nothing but justice in their hearts, assisted by a fair and impartial judge, acquitted Robert Harris of the felonious killing of the two officers, who wrongfully intruded upon his home. Too much credit cannot be given Atty. Lyman Henry, a deep-dyed in-the-wool-old-time Republican, who believed in men and principles. When the case looked the darkest, no one was more bouyant in hopes than Judge Henry. He fought as if his very life was at stake. Judge Henry, himself a Mason, never deserted his brother in black. The Pueblo Chieftian came out squarely for law, order and justice and decried race prejudice by appealing to the fairness of Las Animas County. An acquittal resulted.

Two little girls, Thyra and Evangeline Morrison, gave ten cents each, and one church in Boise, Idaho, gave $13.00.
We promised Judge Henry $500. We owe him a balance of $62.10. Our reputation is at stake. This is more than an individual matter or fraternal responsibility. Irresponsible white men went into this colored home and maltreated Mother, Wife, Father and Son, and in the defense of that home, these officers were killed. Don't you think we have made a great stride forward in this state, when by freeing Mr. Harris, we have said that our home is sacred and he who maliciously invades its threshold must pay the penalty? Then help raise the balance of this $62.10. None of our churches in Denver or the state have given this case financial recognition. Now is a splendid opportunity to help. Harris' mother is very aged and all over the $62.00 will be given to her.

Influential Citizen and Loyal Member of National Medical Association.
Raleigh, N. C.-The members of the National Medical association are showing much interest in the plans for the sixteenth annual meeting of the association which is to be held in this city beginning on Tuesday, Aug. 25. In all sections of the country they are arranging their personal affairs so as to be present. This indicates that the coming meeting will be largely attended.
One of the familiar figures usually seen at the annual meetings of the association is Dr. F. S. Hargraves of Wilson, N. C., who has long been identified with this organization. He is one of the foremost workers in the movement to entertain the National Medical association at the coming meeting in August.
Dr. Hargraves is the president of the Lincoln Beneficial society, founder and medical doctor for the Wilson hospital and tuberculosis home; ex-president of the North Carolins Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical association and
O
DR. F. S. HARGRAVES.
for several years state vice president of the National Medical association. He is now serving as a member of the executive board of the national organization.
Aside from his professional duties Dr. Hargraves takes an unusual interest in all things concerning the civic welfare of his state and race. He is a prominent member of the Baptist church and has served as superintendent of the First Baptist Sunday school of Wilson and is also a member of the trustee and deacon boards of his church.
He is a large property owner in his city and is highly respected by all of the citizens without regard to race. During his attendance at the sessions of the National Medical association Dr. Hargraves is most always accompanied by Mrs. Hargraves, who takes a keen interest in the many activities in which her husband is engaged.
STATE HOME FOR CHILDREN.
How the Good White Felks of Virginia Are Helping Our Race.
"The measure of citizenship is not what a man heaps up for himself, but what he scatters abroad for the benefit of others; not what he grabs, but what he gives to the commonwealth. The greatest citizen is he who does the greatest service." These suggestive and prophetic words were recently spoken by Colonel W. S. Copeland. one of Virginia's ablest editors, at the laying of the cornerstone of the Elizabeth Houston hospital, which will soon form a vital part in the organization and work of the Virginia State School For Colored Deaf and Blind Children, located near Newport News, Va.
Colonel Copeland's words express clearly and forcefully the modern trend in social thought and practice. They emphasize the recognition of a man's pressing and personal obligation to minister as best he can to his less fortunate neighbor. A brief review of the Virginia School For Colored Deaf and Blind Children shows clearly that whole souled Christian men and women have won a battle for civil righteousness and community progress. Some of the workers for the common good possessed unusual advantages of natural equipment and training for leadership; others were decidedly disadvantaged, so far as the world could outwardly judge; all were lovingly devoted to the idea of establishing a genuinely helpful school for the colored deaf and blind children of Virginia.
About fifteen years ago Mrs. William C. Ritter, the wife of the present superintendent, conceived the idea of building for Negroes a school similar to the one provided by Virginia for deaf and blind white children. Mr. Ritter, a southern white man, who is himself deaf, kept working on this idea. He interested some friends in this school project. The general assembly of Virginia, however, moved slowly. The scheme for educating Negro deaf and blind children was at best experimental.
The work of promotion in the legislature fell on the shoulders of a few brave men. Mr. Ritter and his second wife worked faithfully and wisely with a few other white people who understood their plans and sympathized heartily with Negro children who were growing up in ignorance and vice through no fault of their own. Deep faith and sound ideas won new friends for handicapped Negro children. The governors of Virginia la turn saw the necessity of having a state school for colored deaf and blind children.
The failure of the Virginia legislature to see its way clear to appropriate $5,000 for the school in 1906 proved a blessing in disguise. In 1908 Virginia appropriated $25,000. Today there are seven modern and well equipped buildings in which 110 deaf and blind colored children are being educated. Through the application of state funds and the co-operation of men and women who appreciate from first hand experience the trials of deafness and blindness a most valuable work is being carried on.

VILLA, THE GENERAL.
It is pretty well considered by all fair-minded persons that Francisco Villa is an excellent general, a shrewd master of men, and a Negro. His career in army life has taught the world that though a man may be despised, hated, restrained of his life's ambition (to become an officer in his country's army) yet if he has the real stuff in him he can make a way over and above or through life's injustices and prejudices. He can act his part well and there is where all honor lies. College walls either in the army, navy or civil life, are not the only essentials to become a successful soldier in a real war where men's native wits, unassisted by nature's advantages in the country, superior arms, etc., count well toward his success. Theories are well and good in their places for development of the brain cells, but only experience, real, active and live, will properly develop a native general. Villa has taught the United States that it is possible that there are more Villas in the four colored regiments.
He has taught them, if not wanted at home, the foreign powers will clamor for them. This is but the entering wedge into all international affairs. Sooner or later America must fairly reckon with her American Negro and all those who aspire to the military honors. All honors, we mean.
The meetings of the mediators go merrily on at Niagara, but Villa sends a thrill of apprehension down the backs of the American delegates and their South American contemporaries, when he announces that he hopes to be thundering at the defenses of Mexico City within ten days. It is just possible that after all the elaborate plans of these advocates of peace may come to naught. There is only one satisfactory element in the situation to date, Huerta's losing himself. Like old Porfirio Diaz, he may be planning to flee the country with enough Mexican gold to secure his future against wanting for the sordid necessities of life. After all, Huerta is no monkey; and no matter what solution is reached, he can come out of it all feeling that he has given Uncle Sam, as well as the rest of the world, some very anxious moments.
We are proud to receive 10 copies of Congressman Martin B. Madden's speech upon the colored soldier. Thank you, Congressman.
Citizens of Colorado, friends of humanity and justice, men and women who believe in a square deal for everyone. If you are a true Westerner, loyal to the Western traditions and Western folk, The Star most urgently appeals to you in Colorado and to you outside of Colorado to show your deep sense of appreciation for the part that the "Pueblo Chieftain" took in securing a fair trial and a square deal for the Harris family. Write the editor and personally thank him for his broadness and impartiality, recommending that the law should be enforced not according to races, colors or prejudices but according to legal principles. Then write a warm letter of thanks to Judge Lyman Henry, Pueblo, Colo., Harris' attorney, who stood by him like a brother despite threats to harm him. Your fight for justice includes as much the encouragement of your friends as the appreciation of their active efforts. If for any reason you do not perceive this truth today, you will guash your teeth together five years hence and regret that you allowed yourself to sleep in the preensence of so valuable an opportunity.
ROBERT HARRIUS' TRIAL AND ITS
LE8806.8.
Robert Harris, who was once threat ened with lynching, is now a free man in Colorado. He did what every other man with the red blood of self respect and love of honor and family would have done under the same circumstances. He simply protected the confines of his home, though humble as it may have been. A fair jury and an impartial judge (all white) have declared him innocent of a felonious intention to commit murder. So let it rest there. While we are willing to give to his noble and unswering defender, Judge Lyman Henry, full credit for the exemplary nerve and his undaunted courage, indefatigable labor and sunshine hopes shown, yet to the Pueblo Chleftain, the paper that is standing up for law an order, a fair trial by an unprejudiced jury should be given great honor and con-

sideration for their strong editorial for fair play just previous to the beginning of the trial and the fair comments during the trial.
The lessons the Negro learns from this trial are these: That WE ought to have some kind of an organization ever ready to which these kind of cases can be promptly referred and be fully defended. That a fund created for this purpose of protecting our civil, industrial, social and legal rights should be maintained. That when pressed that the Negro can and will show his strength in finance, numbers and in moral suasion. Recall the energy, nerve force expended, brain strength lost by many individuals in bringing to pass this result. Note the inactivity among some of our most prominent people (so-called) when the race issue is at stake. Even if all this energy of the active could have been harnessed in one society combined, centralized and concentrated to a certain definite, permanent as well as temporary use, even greater results with half the effort could have been accomplished with a nest egg in the society for the next time. If a case happens and it strikes YOU, OR YOU, OR YOU, then you will want all Colorado, Carolina and Christendom aroused because you are hurt. Because Robert Harris has been freed, are we to go home complacent and rest easily at our home perfectly contented? Has the deciding of this case settled for all time to come all our troubles and woes? Or shall we get together, organize and prepare for the coming assaults and thus celebrate a real Fourth of July, which will really mean liberty and justice to us?
These assaults are coming just as sure as you live, and you and I will be the targets. Why wait, procrastinate and not prepare? Some organization is better than no organization. Everybody respects numbers when dollars back those numbers. Let us get busy and keep busy. Bring a branch of the N. A. A. C. P. to Denver or so enlarge the scope of the People's Sunday Alliance as to make it an effective organization. Prepare today for today and tomorrow. The Harris' trial has done its mission, shall we learn its lesson it teaches? Or shall we go home and go to sleep again? It is up to you. Which?

The Negro is already being sounded by several "big" people as to what he will do this fall. Some of the politicians can tell the bosses just what he will do, while others, the wiser and more conservative men are playing the watching, waiting game. The Star hopes to be in this campaign as never before. So we are asking our readers not to hastily form their decision on anything. Let this be a campaign of education and reason.

Baptists Ends Successful Year.
The Alpha institute recently held its commencement exercises in the Beth saida Baptist church, Newark, N. J. the baccalaureate sermon being preached by the Rev. J. R. Brown, one of the influential Baptist clergymen of Newark. At the special exercises held in the Women's Christian Temperance union hall Page M. Beverly, president of the school, gave in detail in his annual address the achievements of this school during the year.
The musical and literary program rendered by the graduates and students was one of much merit. The school is fostered by the Baptist nomination of New Jersey and is meeting in a very definite and practical way the needs of its students. Besides other visitors, friends and patrons of the institution there were twenty-two clergymen present who are directly interested in the work and management of the institution.

Does your back ache?
Are you nerve?
Diseases are caused by pressure on nerve tissues.
When this pressure is relieved ease is res-established.
Adjusting the body is transformed into professional success. Nerve tissues are the most important tissues in the body controlling all others. If you don't believe this, come, let me prove it. Chiropractic theory is the greatest of all, securing higher percentage of results than any other.

MISS MARGUERITE JACKSON WEDDED TO MR. ARTHUR B. PITTMAN. MANY VISIT- ORS PRESENT.
Probably never before in Denver has the social spotlight been centered on a prettier wedding than that which took place last Wednesday, June 24, when Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Jackson of 1018 East Twenty-third avenue, gave in marriage their daughter, Marguerite Mallory to Arthur B. Pittman, solemnized by Father Brown of the Church of the Holy Redeemer.
Led by Messrs. Bruce L. Polk and Joseph A. Montlier, groomsmen, the bridal procession entered the church, closely followed by the bride's sister, Miss Bettina Jackson, the charmingly attired bride's smal. Then came Miss Myrtle Reed of Colorado Springs, a fascinating maid of honor whom the McClain twins, Ernestine and Josephine, followed, merrily carrying the golden rings imbedded in leaves of fragrant roses. They appeared like little fairies just from Dreamland. The bride's mother in a stunning creation of Westerla faille and wearing sweet peas, came next in line. Now, leaning upon the arm of her father, came the bride in her robe of ivory crepe meteor, with its trimming of silk chantilly lace. The skirt was fashioned with two long tunics, one of the meteor and the other of lace gracefully cut up front and back. The bodice had long sleeves of lace with a neck and a long waist train draped from the waist. A long veil pretty hung over her shoulders, falling to the end of her train. In her hand was a gorgeous bouquet of bride's roses which she carried amid the valley illies and a shower of roses fell to the end of her beautiful gown, giving a most handsome picture which almost held the eyes with beauty and grandeur. She was met at the altar by the waiting groom and his best man, Senior Morgan T. Jackson, the bride's brother and Denver's famous lyric tenor. Then came new but impressive Episcopal wedding service with a double ring ceremony, which blended the two souls into one. At the residence of the bride a very pleasing reception followed, after which the happy bridal pair departed for a six weeks' honeymoon through Colorado and California.
Miss Jennie Hicks covered herself in glory as she so feelingly sang "O Perfect Love," in her own charming and winsome way of beauty and grace.
Miss Carrie Barnes, who has made Denver so often feel proud of her, attended the wedding as an Indianapolis guest. She Star wishes the merry pair every gladness, every degree of health and prosperity possible to newlyweds.

THE SANATORIUM ASSOCIATION HOLDS A SUCCESSFULL MEETING.
On Tuesday night, the 30th ult., the Lincoln-Douglass Sanatbrium Association held the most successful public meeting in its four years existence. From every viewpoint the meeting was a success. The attendance, all things considered, was good; the subject matter of the speakers and the speakers themselves were just what was expected from such men as Rabbi Friedman of National Jewish Hospital Hame and Mr. Morris of the State Anti-Tuberculosis Society. In fact Mr. Morris' eloquent presentation exceeded the expectation of those of his hearers who knew him best. The music of the evening, too, was splendid. The vocal selections of Mr. Yoakum D. Reed were rendered in his own rich, full tones and highly pleased the audience. Miss Frankie Buchanan's rendition was given in even, well sustained tones and with the glivery notes and composure that characterizes all her singing. Of course the Azalia Hackley Choral Club did well and lived up to its reputation made in long years before the public.
But the highest compliment is due the audience for the interest and serious consideration that it gave the facts as presented by the speakers. It was evident from the beginning that they were interested and were thinking—two things which, if wisely directed always bear fruit. This meeting launches a campaign for more extensive publicity and definite future plans. In the early fall there will be held another public meeting, at which a more comprehensive presentation of the directors' recommendation to the public for the future work of the association will be given. The officers are pleased with the result of the meeting and will take courage to bring forward their best thought and judgment derived from past experiences and gathered from the experiences of others.

The Taka Art and Literary Slub at the lovely residence of Mrs. J. S.

The large concourse of ladies, the beautiful floral decorations blending their club colors in the color scheme, the merri-ment and joy furnished and the cool summer evening made the social event one long to be remembered. Each lady was charming attired and wore flowers, presenting a scene in "midsummer night's dream."

THE "FORO" 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 o. 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 proves fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them. For treatment, call on or address:

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, ada 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 payment.
LAST OPPORTUNITY TO BUY
Lots and tracts in Dearfield at prices
dated from Feb. 4th to May 4th, 1914.
Those who subscribed for lots and
were listed will have until June 1st,
1914, to take their lots at prices agreed
upon. After that time all lots and
tracts will be placed on the advanced
list. Now that the hotel, postoffice
and grocery store are completed and
the church established, it is quite natural that the prices would advance and continue to advance as improvements are made in the town.
