The Wrong Way, Did Pay? If So, What?
Only One Real Road To Manhood and Justice.
Every Race Pays the Price, So Must Negro.
No close observer of the situation of today would deny that we have been, and are yet, traveling along the wrong road.
We have been advised to take up the path of least resistance. We have been told we must gain respect by commercial conquests and peaceful achievements. But has any race or nation gained respect wholly by these methods? Does anyone believe that Belgium would have been better off today and in the future had she chosen the path of least resistance offered by the Germans? Had she voluntarily opened her pathways to the Teutons must she not have found herself aligned with them against the allies? Once the Germans determined to go through Belgium to get at France there was no third way. As it is, Belgium has chosen the most honorable and, in our opinion, the best in the end. The path of least resistance is not only dishonorable and cowardly, but IT DOES NOT PAY!
Can WE gain the respect of the nations by commercial conquests alone when the only respect worth while in a world of broken treaties and discarded "scraps of paper" is the respect that is born of the sword? Would England be what she is today without the bold use in the past of this arbiter of human rights? The "nation of shop-keepers" is respected more for her overwhelming navy and battle history than for any commercial or scholastic achievements. The Elizabethan age that boasted so many of the best creations and greatest names of English literature, among them Shakespeare himself, grows dim in a contemplation of Waterloo. German trade achievements and German scientific discoveries and inventions are today given many an ovation, but what were they before 1870? What would they be today without the great spirit of self-sacrifice and unity behind them?
Would Germany, with all her scientific discoveries and her trade buildings; or England, with all her literary accomplishments, her art, her colonial genius, and her vast commerce, be as well respected among the nations of the earth today without the achievements in 1870 of the German army and its subsequent growth and menace; or the British navy and its thousand years of fame, with Drakes, Frobishers, Nelsons, Howards, and the like? Would England be any better off for the absence from her roll of fame of the names of Wellington, Sir John Moore, Clive, Gordon, Wolfe and others too numerous to mention, who spent their lives and spilled their blood in warlike Britain's service? To answer these questions it is but necessary to turn to the dilemma of the Jews. How much real respect do they get with all their colossal achievements in trade, in literature, in arts, compared to which the vaunted achievements of the Aryan races stand dwarfted and insignificant? Are they not everywhere almost the same JEWS? In many countries their status has not even increased. In others they are tolerated because of the money behind them. But in what country is their real worth recognized and admitted? Even in America today are not they fighting, but a little in the lead of us, for equal opportunities and citizen rights? True, their organized efforts and huge money backing are accomplishing more for them than has yet been done for us. But were it true that commercial conquests and intellectual achievements were the surest roads to respect they would surely not be faced to-day with the necessity of fighting prejudice, which, after all, is but another phase of disrespect.
NO! The commercial road is NOT the true path to real and lasting respect. Our respect for the Belgians increased ten fold when we found they were not only busy and industrious, but could fight as well. We must taste our own Runnymede, our Boston Commons and our Marathon. At Runnymede a determined nobility faced a tyrant king and forced the signing of the great Magna Charter of English liberties. At Boston Commons was the first blood shed—the blood of a colored man—in the war of the Revolution, when a small and untrained nation re-taught England the lesson she had taught and wrested independence from the most powerful nation of Europe. Ten thousand Greeks at Marathon, fighting for liberty and their beloved Greece, defeated one hundred thousand Persians in glorious battle.
Are we less brave that ten million of us sit supinely by and prefer degradation to death?
Lynching would cease in short order if the colored people of this country resented the lawless murdering of friends, relatives and compatriots as they should with the rifle and
sword. The ballot will not settle it definitely. Neither will commercial nor intellectual achievements. But mobs do not lynch when they are assured of a come-back. Least of all, would a mob invade a colored district in chase of its victim were there any likelihood of their being received as they should be—with bullets The forty-nine colored persons who were lynched last year would have received just trial by law had those who preceded them fought instead of begged. The eight or more who have been lynched already this year would have been left to be dealt with by law had those forty-nine victims of last year—the women, of course, excluded—showed fight instead of craven fear. But the blame does not altogether rest with the murdered dead. The issue is up to the living. Perhaps, were the poor slaughtered victims assured of proper support from their rage the tale had been different. Now, if we are not all rank cowards, let us resolve that in future the tale SHALL BE DIFFERENT! Of what avail the pleading and the begging? Those who pleaded the hardest and begged the most pitucously were not spared. Innocent or guilty, they died a shameful death—the more shameful that they died pleading instead of fighting.
The Irishman is said to be able to fight other people's battles, but not his own. But the Irishman would soon find cause to fight for himself were half the treatment meted out to us his portion for a day. The courage on the battlefield of the colored man has surpassed that of the fighting Irish. The black man fighting in Europe today is again demonstrating the fighting qualities of the colored race. Are we, their brothers in America, less brave that we swallow like cur-dogs and cowards the indignities and insults heaped upon us, the murders and lynchings? We are not true Americans as long as we tolerate such treatment. We are not loyal to our country so long as we allow the perpetration on ourselves, or any others, of such wrongs and injustices. Colored men and women, the true American spirit of the Constitution calls on you to resent un-American treatment. You cannot be Americans and slaves at the same time.
Organize! Organize! Agitate! Advocate! Let the American nation and the entire world know that you are men and will no longer tolerate wrongs and persecutions. Let the world know that you are willing to fight for your rights, if only by fighting can you obtain and enjoy them. Let them know you are resolved to protect your women. Rise up and drive the lascivious Caucasian out from among your women. Protect with your life, if need be, the dearest possession of any race. In degradation and disgrace, with the virtue of your women dragged in the mud, what were life to you—if ye be not dogs? Will you wait for the time when some white man shall shoot you down for walking with a woman of your own race, as was recently done in Dixie? Shall the white man dictate to you that you shall not walk with ANY WHITE WOMAN, nor with THIS or THAT colored woman, because his lascivious nature desires her? Will you leave your house unshuttered until the wife, daughter or sweetheart is degraded beyond salvation?
"Ye are neither children nor gods, but MEN in a world of men," and the answer rests with you. Will it be the answer of the full-grown man or that of a babbling child? Will you fling proof of your manhood in the face of the oppressor or will you bow your back to the burden and list to the prate of your selfish leaders?—Amsterdam News.

sion, was presented by Bishop Neely and the commission appointed Bishop Thirkield, Bishop Neely and the Rev. R. E. Jones as a committee to define the powers and prerogatives of the commission. The committee embodied its findings in a set of resolutions which included the statement from the 1912 general conference that "it is plainly our duty to assist in every way in allaying competition among the colored Methodist churches."
Chattanooga, Tenn. — The members of the Methodist Episcopal Church appointed as a commission on the federation of colored Methodist churches in the United States met in the Wiley Memorial M. E, Church on January 8. Present were Bishop Thomas B. Neely of Philadelphia. Bishop Theodore S. Henderson of Chattanooga, and Bishop Wilbur F. Thirkield of New Orleans; the Rev. R. E. Jones of New Orleans, the Rev. J. P. Wragg of Atlanta, I. Garland Penn of Cincinnati, and E. H. McKissick of Holly Springs, Miss.
The resolutions declared that "we recognize the propriety of seeking to avoid unnecessary duplications of churches and educational institutions; to prevent the passing from one denomination to another of improper ministers and members; and to reach wise understandings for the practical welfare and enlarged efficiency of the said churches, including the matter of better preparation for and in the ministry." and recommended the appointment of a committee to open correspondence with commissions appointed by the other branches of Methodism looking to a general federation.—Age
The Rev. R. E. Gillum of Mexico, Mo., and L. J. Price of Atlanta were absent. Bishop Henderson presided with I. G. Penn as secretary. The legislation of the general conference, relating to the creation of the commis-

Torn Mask Falls, Lays Bare Motive.
Envy Admitted, Though Not Confessed
THE STAR desires to state for the information of all who do not know that the article 'Tearing Off the Mask' was written by the associate editor. That it was written to show up the 'If-I-can't-get-ajob-you-shan't' spirit, the prevailing sentiment exhibited by some in reference to positions to be given Negroes at the State Capitol. We will not be disturbed nor stopped neither by threats, cajolery nor attempted attacks from constantly pressing the rightful claims of the Negro. Yet we will not abuse nor will THE STAR condescend to mud-slinging nor washing dirty linen in public print. We ask no quarter and we grant none-
We have before us the celebrated journalistic 'reply' of our co-temporary. 'The Colorado Statesman.' Imagine a writer, self-inflated with personal charm and egotistic fulsome flattery and an editor of more than a 'quarter of a century of journalistic experience' 'replying' to the charge made against his paper or attacking his 'sincerity of action,' instead of making 'answer' to the charge. He should permit the complainant to make 'reply' to his 'answer.' Most of the younger editors of less years of journalistic experience would 'reply' to an 'answer' and not to the 'charge.' However, we reluctantly and shamefully confess that we carefully, patiently and laboriously waded through his four and half column of 'reply' and characterize the whole conglomerate mass of heterogeneous matters as immaterial, incompetent and irrelevant. It consisted of insinuations, suspicions, assumptions, envy, egotism, threats, sympathy, advice, mystery and the futile attempt to be funny, raising additional issues without in any way answering our questions and charges.
We asked certain well directed and definite questions and that is what we received in the 'reply.' THE STAR said recently and repeats now that 'The editorial of the Colorado Statesman under the caption of 'Plums' was written for some purpose to appease an enmity or spite against the Republican organization.' Did THE STAR tell the truth, if so, why did you not stand up and answer or plead guilty? 'It dared not speak directly, and in only premature criticism, it used and suggested unsuspecting inuendoes, etc. Are any of these facts so; did you do this, if so, you stand before the bar of public opinion, condemned, as guilty. We charged that you

made an attempt to land the messengership to the Governor and failed, after which you wrote your famous but attempted-to-be ironical editorial on 'Plums.' Did you say these things; are these the facts, if so, THE STAR rightly considered that the spirit you had shown after defeat was the most reprehensible exhibited for years. Was the editor of 25 years of journalistic experience ever a candidate for the messengership? Did he prematurely criticize the Republican organization in his article?
Did THE STAR tell the truth when it said your criticism came from a disgruntled, disappointed and defeated political candidate, when your pseudo-political organization born over night, had not only failed but also whose fond hopes for the messengership had too vanished in thin air? If you are such a strong staunch and everlasting Republican that you claim you are on paper, why don't you co-operate with the colored Republican club to GET JOBS for others and not oppose them for yourself? Did not you intend your actions to cause and create doubts, scatter and dissipate the promises that this Republican club had gotten in spite of your opposition? If you will say that you did not intend to prematurely and spitefully attack the colored Republican club, and that you are in sympathy with its efforts, THE STAR will publicly confess its error, and if you are not in sympathy with their movements, let the public rightfully judge your motives. To criticise at that time the colored Republican club that was pushing and fighting for six or eight appointments which were then being considered by the successful candidates, especially after your defeat, meant defeat for all the rest. Is that the kind of Republicanism you boast for 25 years? Would the editorial writer be exultant in glee and joy over the Negroes' defeat? After you failed suppose the club also had failed, what then?
Having failed to fully and completely answer the charge of THE STAR, The Star closes the controversy and turns the facts over to the public for their judgment. Besides tiring the public, The Star would surely fall a victim in the trap laid, if it were to continue the harangue, so as to give some credence to the belief that the Negroes were fighting among themselves (Concluded on page 4)

Despite the storm last Sunday, our quarterly meeting was attended with considerable interest and enthusiasm. Presiding Elder Ward and Rev. D. R. Jones of Cheyenne, Wyo., were the pulpteers and both acquitted themselves most creditably. At the quarterly conference Tuesday evening the facts were disclosed that during the past three months seventeen persons have been received into the church; three have been converted to the Christian faith; our membership numbers 601, and our total receipts for all purposes have been upward of $1,200.00.
The musical drama repeated Thursday evening proved to be more popular than at its first rendition. The ladies selling tickets made the following fine showing: Mrs. A. L. Clement, $35.00; Miss Elizabeth Miller, $25.00, and Miss Gladys Briedlove, $4.50. All three of them are very grateful to the public for supporting them so generously, and the pastor and trustees wish to thank most heartily Mrs. Mae E. Byrd and her associates for the fine entertainment and the financial assistance given.
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Brown of 1182 South Pearl St., on Tuesday last entertained at a six o'clock dinner Reva. R. R. Jones of Cheyenne, Wyo., A. M. Ward, R. L. Pope and Mrs. Unity Hall. The affair was beautiful and the guests left this home almost too full for expression.
The regular meeting of the Mite Missionary Society will be held in the lecture room of the church Thursday next at 2:30 p. m. It is earnestly desired that every member will answer the roll-call.

Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock the three Baptist churches of the city will hold a union covenant and communion service at Central church. This should be a sort of record service both from attendance and enthusiasm. It is the pastor's hope that Zion will be well represented in the meeting.
Last Sunday afternoon the ladies of the Mission Circle were addressed by Dr. A. Houghton Rodgers of South Africa. The address was both interesting and instructive. During the year the missionary ladies will hold an afternoon service on each fifth Sunday.
Dr. Morse of the First Baptist church will address the Men's Bible class on the last Tuesday evening of this month. Dr. Morse is a pleasing and magnetic speaker and the men will be delighted with his address. Every man is welcome to the meetings of the class Tuesday evenings at 8:00 o'clock.
A very pleasant and profitable meeting of the Executive Board was held at the Springs last week, being entertained by the St. John's Baptist church. At the close of the meeting the Rev. Davis, formerly of the M. E. church, was ordained and set apart to the gospel ministry of the Baptist church.
The Woman's Bible class is doing splendid work this season. The lessons at this time are from that interesting period of Israel's wanderings
in the wilderness. The hour is 2:30 on Thursday afternoon. Every woman is welcome.
Our sick list this week contains the names of Brother Robt. Johnson, who is suffering severely from an injured foot. Sister Sallie Buford and Sister Emma Taylor. Others who were mentioned earlier are convalescent.
Seven persons were received into the church last Sunday: Sisters Georgia Thornton, Helen Moody, Minnie Smith, Ella Ross and Brothers D. F. Mallard, Richard Pate and I. C. Mumford. The two latter were received for baptism.

LEST WE FORGET.
We notice that there is a constant stream of big politicians NOW (Rep.) always calling upon the powers that be in the state house. Some are from Denver and some are from Pueblo. We often ask ourselves this question, that when it was given out that the Republican party had no money to give out, but needed men and women of worth to push their campaign, where were these over-zealous office-seekers? How much of their real time, money and effort did they sacrifice to put the Republican party in power? To what places in the state did they brave the criticism, accept the contumely and forego the pleasures of the day to do real Republican missionary work? Were they absent and hiding in the bushes waiting for
something to drop? Now that the Republican party has a few jobs to give, they are FIRST—these absent ones to be considered! We call the attention of the successful candidates to the record of each applicant. Just see how many times and in how many places under the many Republican administrations these applicants have served. Why not be fair and mindful of someone else's welfare and consideration. The Star would like to see the one who has done the most, sacrificed the most and received the least, receive the clerkship appointment. Look up their records, lest we forget.
KEEP IT HANDY FOR RHEUMA-TISM.
No use to squirm and wince and try to wear out your rheumatism. It will wear you out instead. Apply some Sloan's Liniment. Need not rub it in—just let it penetrate all through the affected parts, relieve the soreness and draw the pain. You get ease at once and feel so much better you want to go right out and tell other sufferers about Sloan's. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any druggist and have it in the house—against colds, sore and swollen joints, lumbago, sciatica and like alliments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief. Buy a bottle today.
GRAND VALENTINE FESTIVAL.
"An evening of live doings" at Shorter church, Feb. 15th, for the benefit of the trustees of Scott M. E. church. There will be a post office, guessing contest and grab bag, candy sweethearts and indoor laughlifts. Admission 12 CENTS. Ice cream, cake and a dinner will be served. Watch our big display ad for particulars.
TO THE CLUB WOMEN OF THE CITY.
The Star will publish a monthly list of the meeting places of the various clubs of the city during the different months, if furnished with same by the first Wednesday in each month.
STEADILY PROGRESSING. ARE YOU HELPING?
A number of Denver's representative citizens paid their annual dues. The treasurer was bonded and arrangements were completed for the "Big Membership Rally" which is to be held at Campbell A. M. E. church, Feb. 16.
Five hundred members is the slogan of the committee, and each citizen of Denver should feel it their duty to assist this worthy cause.
The next workers' conference will be held with Mrs. Armstrong, 712 25th avenue.
The Star has confidence in the Negroes of Denver and predicts their cooperation and support in this undertaking. Boost for the sanitarium. If you can't boost, don't knock.
"WHY JESUS WAS A MAN AND NOT WOMAN."
This book, which is just from the press, is the third book by Mr. Tapp, in hich he interprets the Sex-Law of the Bible. His first book on the subject, "The Truth About the Bible" came from the press about two years ago. About a year after that, his second book, "Sexology Of The Bible" followed. In these books, Mr. Tapp contends that all sin of the Flesh is in the Sex-Senses and that is the reason that Jesus did not have a natural father. He is a lawyer and has done a great work for the inspiration of the Bible and the Divinity of the Christ. He has answered all the school of the Ingersol's, etc. He shows that the fall of man was a matter of the Flesh and the Sex and that the Christ had to be conceived without a natural father in order to be the perfect man and Redeemer of the world. His idea is, The Law of Sex is the Key of the Bible: The idea is arresting the attention of the great thinkers of the world. The books may be secured by addressing Sidney C. Tapp, Kansas City, Mo. They should be in every home and library of the world.

PROUD RECORD OF OLD PIONEER
Edith James Smithea was born on Oct. 17th, 1851, in Florence, Alabama, and departed this life Friday morning, Jan. 8th, 1915.
In 1878 the DePriest family, which included the father, mother and fourteen children, moved from Florence, Ala., to Salina, Kans.
In 1880 the deceased, then a young lady, came to Denver. After a few months' residence here she was joined by her sister, also unmarried. After living here about 18 months, both sisters were married at the same time in May, 1882. The deceased was married to James H. Smithea, the other to Harrison F. Smith, both young men of Denver. Through all the years these sisters have been inseparable until death broke the link that time, space and family could not separate.
Mrs. Smithea was converted when a girl of 14 years. Her mother and sister have often told the story of how one night of long ago, back in the state of Alabama, when, around the fireside, the girls were reading and the mother was lying across the bed, how they were suddenly startled by hearing Edith's voice raised in praises to God. She had been converted while reading. The light that saves a soul had come to her while reading a simple story of Christian love.
That light which came to her that night at 12 o'clock guided and lighted a life full of good deeds, and at last after years of trials and months of suffering, led her to a home free from sorrow and pain.
On Dec. 2 Mrs. Smithea called the members of her family around her bed and talked to each one separately, bidding them good bye and asking them to meet her in heaven.
She prayed unceasingly for her three boys and made them promise that they would meet her in glory. Mrs. Smithea leaves three boys, an only sister, Mrs. H. F. Smith, a dear old mother of 93 years, one grandchild, seven brothers, many nieces and nephews, and a host of loving friends to mourn her loss.
MOOCHERS HANGING AROUND STATE CAPITOL.
Our attention has been repeatedly called to the moochings of some curbstone, jobless politicians at the State Capitol. There are certain worthless, jobless, conscienceless Negroes who daily ply the trade at the State Capitol constantly begging the successful candidates for a "loan" or a hand-out to help reimburse them for money they spent in the last election. The Star severely condemns such unprincipled methods of extortion and living by the wits, and therefore warns the public against these idle, unreliable, afraid-of-work political beggars. The Star hopes that no politicians, successful or unsuccessful, will pay these political parasites any attention and thus force them to go to work. They are a disgrace to the honest, hard-working, tax-paying citizen and a blot upon our race. They stand in the way for help in some worthy and deserving cause. The Star again condemns the practice and brands these fakirs as unworthy of belief by anyone. A beggar is a beggar and a political beggar is the worst kind of a beggar.
ALTHO FRIENDLESS AND HELP
LESS. SHALL JONES HANG?
You Can Save Him With Your Mite.
The Ministerial Alliance, assisted by the People's Sunday Alliance, are appealing to the men and women in Denver and out in the state and outside of this state to save the life of their fellow man, who is condemned to die May 13. Money is needed to take his case to Supreme court. He did not have a fair trial and he is helpless, penniless and friendless, yet he is some mother's son and some sister's brother. Will you send your contribution to T. S. Rector. 2712 Welton St. Denver, Colorado, treasurer.

and therefore the Republican party will not have to deal out any patronage on account of the lack of peace and harmo y in the party. Don't you see how nicely the trap has been laid by this editorial writer with a quarter of a century of journalistic experience and who had been defeated for the messengership? Good people of Denver and State of Colorado, The Star stands today valiantly fighting for representative positions and jobs for the race (and by the race we don't mean The Star). At no time has any person connected with The Star been a candidate for any position at the State Capitol.

IT REALLY DOES RELIEVE
RHEUMATISM.
Everybody who is afflicted with rheumatism in any form should by all means keep a bottle of Sloan's Liniment on hand. The minute you feel pain or soreness in a joint or muscle, bathe it with Sloan's Liniment. Do not rub it. Sloan's penetrates almost immediately right to the seat of pain, relieving the hot, tender, swollen feeling and making the part easy and comfortable. Get a bottle of Sloan's Liniment for 25 cents of any druggist and have it in the house—against colds, sore and swollen joints, lumbago, sciatica and like aliments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost instant relief. Buy a bottle today.

LEADERSHIP OF BISHOP COPPIN
Given Fine Support by the Carolina Churches.
Reports From the Various Conferences of the A. M. E. Denomination in Two Southern States Praise Zealous Work of Lay Members—Appreciates Assistance of the Press.
Philadelphia.-That the Right Rev. Bishop Levl J. Coppin, D. D., the noted authority on African missions, author, pulpiteer and an uncompromising advocate of equal opportunities for the race along all lines, is loved by the communicants of his conferences and by members of other denominations was strikingly emphasized at his recent conferences held in North and South Carolina. The work of this remarkable character is encouraging the activities of our people in many directions. Through his manly, Christian bearing Bishop Coppin has the cooperation of many able and influential white men in and out of his denomination, some of whom were present at the sessions of the conference held at Roxboro, N. C. These white men stood up for fair play in dealing with the race question and encouraged the Rev. Mr. Coppin in his great work.
The cause of proper education for the race was ably represented by the bishop, who is bringing things to pass through the co-operation of the church with its loyal membership. These conferences silently argue the fact that by love of justice and Christian fellowship the two races will dwell together in this country in peace. Thus when the pulpit stands for righteousness it is safe to assume that public sentiment with respect to races and in dividuals will not be diverted in any other than channels of peace and good will. Emotionalism at these conferences was harnessed to the extent that multitudes were benefited and led along the
BISHOP LEVI J. COPPIN.
upward path. Splendid endeavors for home and foreign missions on the part of the women's organizations of the conferences inspired the members to greater activity. This spirit always characterizes the conferences of Bishop Coppin. In spite of the dark hours in the realm of finance the presence of Bishop Coppin rallied his men and with his native Christian spirit, refinement and culture, lent inspiration to them, and we especially mention the two conferences in North Carolina, where both men and women worked like Trojans and brought up rounded reports.
In a recent interview with the writer Bishop Coppin said: "A round of seven conferences during the months of November and December, 1914, five in South Carolina and two in North Carolina, revealed the fact that the African Methodist Episcopal church, founded by Richard Allen in 1816, is coming up to the century milestone with great promise. One of the signs of progress and a larger volume of work in the future is the representative part that the laymen are taking in all forward movements."
It was a lay delegate in one of the conferences who suggested that each member of the conference volunteer the per capita amount necessary to keep the conference from falling behind in the amount raised for the general fund. This fund is used for home and foreign missions, the cause of education and to assist in the support of superannuated preachers, widows and orphans. It was the laymen who took the lead in a movement to raise sufficient funds to pay the debt on Kittrell college, at Kittrell, N.C. The women of the church are raising more funds than ever before for the mission fields. News comes to us from across the water that our mission work in South Africa is greatly affected by the terrible conflict of nations now going on, especially as it relates to the Anglo-German war in South Africa.
Not the least among the encouraging signs noticeable during our round of conferences were the reports given by certain leading newspapers of the work. All movements for the good of humanity and the uplift in general of mankind that are shut out from press notice must suffer very much in comparison with that which has behind it a friendly press.
Professor J. H. Johnson Elected to
Subcommittee of Management.
Salisbury, N. C.-Among the new members recently installed at the meeting of the subcommittee of management of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows held in Philadelphia was Professor J. H. Johnson of this city. He represents North Carolina and is a true representative of the splendid type of young men entering this great organization, which is a potent element in racial ascendancy.
With such unselfish leaders as Colonel James H. Young, deputy grand master of this fraternity for the jurisdiction of North Carolina, Professor Johnson is doing a constructive work that has made him conspicuous in the fraternity, especially in this section. He is unassuming, but uncompromisingly for the judicious management of every thing that he is identified with. He registered this fact at the B. M. C. at Atlanta, Ga., and because of his striking qualifications he was made a member of the subcommittee of management.
Professor Johnson is now serving his fourth year as district grand secretary of the Odd Fellows of this state. With such capable and representative men as Professor Johnson managing the affairs of this organization, with Hon.
P.
PROFESSOR J. H. JOHNSON.
E. C. Morris of Chicago heading the craft, the fraternity from present indications will have unprecedented success this year.
This city is one of the main centers of the Southern railway and where a number of its largest shops are located. Hundreds of our people find employment in these shops and a majority of them are doing good work. They had to be reached and assisted in pur chasing comfortable homes for them selves and families, and Professor Johnson and a number of progressive men of this city organized the Salisbury-Spencer Building and Loon association, which is doing much in the matter of assisting our people in buying their own homes. Mr. Johnson is secretary and treasurer of the organization.
In this part of North Carolina will be found a number of our leading institutions of learning. Livingstone college is located here and is the principal college of the A. M. E. Zlon denomination and is disseminating a strong influence for good throughout the country. Professor Johnson is a member of the faculty. He is prominent in Masonic circles and is foremost in various civic and literary organizations among our people in this section of the state.
SPINGARN SPEAKS FRANKLY.
Dead Line of Color Will Not Solve
Race Problem, He Avers.
In his address before a large audience in the council chamber" of the city hall in Omaha on Friday evening, Jan. 22, Dr. J. E. Spingarn, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored people, among other things, said: "I thank God that vice crime and disease know no color line, nor do they honor any segregation law. Segregation is now in effect in eight cities of this country whereby no colored family may live in a block occupied by a majority of whites and vice versa.
"We come to the American people with a plea for justice. We say to them frankly, as Sir Sidney Oliver, the British governor of black teeming Jamaica, has said before us, that never can we solve the problem by the dead line of color. The colored people are advancing.. Two of the most remarkable works of literature in America in the past thirty years are by colored authors. One of them is 'Up From Slavery,' by Dr. Booker T. Washington."
Remarkable Business Achievement.
The National Negro Business league in its search for notable achievements of business concerns for the past year reports that the North Carolina Mutual and Provident association of Durham, N. C., closed its 1914 records with the following figures: Total business for the year, $400,000; increase over 1913. $50,000; amount paid to its members. $200,000.
Meeting of Evangelical Publishers.
The annual meeting of the Evangelical Denominational publishers held in Cincinnati Jan. 26 and 27 was largely attended. The reports on the various grades of religious publications were encouraging. The National Baptist publishing house at Nashville, Tenn., was represented by Dr. R. H. Boyd and three other officials of the concern.

MAGNIFICENT HALL ERECTED
Coastly Structure In New Orleans is the Result of Mr. Green's Untiring Efforts and Able Financiering—Excellent Condition of the Louisiana Grand Lodge.
New Orleans.-The Pythian temple, the largest building in this section of the country owned by the race, is the brain work of one of the most unique characters among us. S. W. Green, supreme chancellor of the Knights of Pythias. The supreme session of the order will be held in Columbus, O., next August.
S. W. Green became a member of the order of Knights of Pythias July 17, 1883, when the order was in its infancy, being a charter member of Pride of Tensas lodge No. 21. St. Joseph, La. He was elected to the station of V. C. of the lodge, but served as C. C. from the time the lodge was
A. B.
S. W. GREEN
organized until June 30, 1886; was the grand representative from his lodge, and immediately upon entering the grand lodge his ability to handle finances commenced to show itself, and in May, 1884, he was elected to the position of G. M. F. and served for one year.
In April, 1886, Mr. Green was elected to the position of G. K. of R. S. and served in that station until 1891, at which time he was renominated for the position, but declined renomination. He was elected to the position of G. C., and upon assuming that station, he found the finances of the grand lodge in an insolvent condition. The general fund had no assets, while its liabilities amounted to $105.62. The endowment fund showed the amount of assets to be $190.40, while its liabilities showed death claims due and unpaid, aggregating $3.424.25. The member ship at that time was only 870.
Year by year he has schemed and persevered toward placing Louisiana upon a solid foundation, financially and his people, ever ready to aid him in carrying out the plans that he had under way, re-elected him to the position of G. C. by acclamation, and since the date of his first election he has been unanimously re-elected to that position every year. He found that it was necessary to increase the endowment dues if the grand lodge of the state of Louisiana was to be resurrected, and accordingly he recommended that instead of the members paying 25 cents per month endowment tax, that it be increased to 50 cents per month for six months of the year and 25 cents for the other six months.
That recommendation was adopted and became a part of the laws of the grand lodge, with the result that a sufficient sum was soon accumulated to pay off all outstanding claims for endowment, and when the grand lodge met in April, 1902, it was entirely out of debt, with a small surplus on hand to the credit of the endowment department. The grand lodge was then paying an endowment of $300 ninety days after a claim was filed. In April, 1905, the grand chancellor recommended that the endowment policies be raised to $500, payable on the graded system, and that the assessment be 50 cents per month, the claims to be paid within thirty days after they were filed.
In 1906 the surplus in the endowment fund had reached such a large sum and was growing all the time that the question arose. "What shall we do with this money?" It was then necessary for S. W. Green to study out a way of investing it. Accordingly, in 1906, at the grand lodge session in Alexandria, La., he recommended that the grand lodge of the state of Louisiana erect a Pythian temple, and an appropriation of $12,000 was made by the grand lodge for the purchase of a site for the same. This appropriation was found to be insufficient to purchase a site in the desired locality, and an additional $3,000 was there
are appropriated to be secured in the purchase of a desirable site in this city to be used at a later date for a Pythian temple.
The original appropriation for the temple was only $80,000; but, realizing that a $40,000 building in a city like New Orleans would not serve the purpose for which it was intended.
Mr. Green filled his forces and carried them to the grand lodge, which convened in this city in 1908, and by such alliance the grand lodge approved its action in reference to building a magnificent structure, which is now completed and cost in the neighborhood of $200,000. Thus we see that from the crippled condition of affairs when assuming control of the office we find that the grand lodge of the state of Louisiana has 181 lodges in the state with a membership of 9,000 and with the total resources of $123,354.07 as an endowment fund.
Mt. Green attended the supreme lodge session in August, 1803, as supreme representative for the state of Louisiana and has attended every supreme lodge session as a representative since. At the supreme lodge session held in Pittsburgh in 1905 he was elected to the position of supreme vice chancellor and ex officio supreme worthy counselor. At the supreme lodge session in Louisville, Ky., in 1907 he was re-elected to the position which he held until April 3, 1908 when he assumed the duties of supreme chancellor, caused by the death of the late S. W. Starks.
DR. FRISSELL ON CAUSES OF THE PRESENT EUROPEAN WAR
President of Hampton Says Jealousy Between Nations Brought on Conflict.
Hampton, Va. - Dr. H. B. Frissell principal of Hampton institute, in one of his Sunday evening addresses at the school recently spoke of some of the underlying causes of the great war that is raging in Europe and pointed out what, in his opinion, will be some of the striking results when it is all over. Dr. Frissell said:
When we had battles fifty years ago, there were thousands killed, now there are hundreds of thousands. Guns then shot just a little way, now they shoot a long, long way. Now, when we have a battle, the lines extend, unstead of a few miles, hundreds of miles. We have too the great airships and the submarines. The whole thing is very wonderful, but it is very very sad. What made this war? I think the war has come because people have not trusted one another, and people have not trust to trust one another-white people trust to trust people and colored people to trust white people. This is one of the great lessons that Harrington teaches.
Now, another reason for this war is that the nations got jealous of one another Germany is a young nation. It is not as old as many of the other nations of Europe I speak of Germany because most of us are English speaking people and we want to be fair to Germany. Germany is right in the middle of Europe. She came sudden into power. She then marvelously well She had clean cities excellent railroads and an admirable god of war. She had a god of war were jealous of her. She did a great deal that was wrong. But I am afraid that some of the other nations were jealous of Germany, and that made Germany jealous of them I think Germany was more or less suspicious of the other nations I think, too, that the other nations were suspicious of Germany And for these reasons this war came.
Just so far as we can put down this trust of one race for another race and one nation for another nation, just so far as we get rid of suspicion and love one another always a great deal that is bad about war There is in the first place the feeling of hate that follows, and there are the sorrow and the misery
There are some good things coming out of the war, however. For one thing we are going to have more sympathy. Sympathy means suffering with. Every time I see the Hampton teacher working with their needles I am glad to cause them think it means more sympathy than it means more suffering. We took for the Belgians. The girls gave $50 I was very glad of that. All over the country there are people who are sacrificing themselves in order to help the Belgians and other suffering people in Europe. So one of the good things that will come out of the war is that it will bring sympathy for people all over the world. Do you know that in Russia over 190,000,000 people have stopped drinking?" In France the people have stopped drinking from abusing alcohol. We don't want people have to do for their country for what they think is right. There is a tremendous education that people receive through suffering.
What is going to come of it all? One thing, I hope and I believe, is that we are not going to have any such great wars any more. I believe that we will not have any more of these wars, we will not have any armies. We have to have police. I do not mean we shall not have any navy. I mean that just as in this country we have a great federation of states, all of them working and co-operating together, so in Europe we have a great federation. I hope that we may pray that God will bring peace; that he will do away with race hatred, with distrust and with suspicion.

Panama-Pacific International Exposition, Greatest and Most Marvelous of All Celebrations, Opens Completed In Every Detail on Feb. 20, 1915
Forty of the World's Great Nations to Join With America In Celebrating the Opening of the Panama Canal In a Conclave Unsurpassed In History.
Wonderful Exhibits From All Lands Show the World's Best. Progress From Beginning to End Magnificent Panama-Pacific International Exposition Will Abound With Superb Educational and Entertainment Features.
Aerial view of the Palazzo Vecchio, a historic palace in Venice, Italy, with its grand architecture and expansive courtyard. The image also features a biplane flying overhead, adding a dynamic element to the scene.
THE MOTHER OF LINCOLN BEACHEY, FROM THE TOWER OF JEWELS, 435 FEET ABOVE THE EARTH, AT THE PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, WATCHES HER SON LOOP HIS ONE THOUSANDTH LOOP.
When Lincoln Beachey, a son of San Francisco, on the occasion of his homecoming after breaking all world records as a daredevil looper of 900 loops, performed two entirely new and death-defying stunts over the completed palaces of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition it was his aged mother who for the first time waved him on to fresh achievements. Mrs. Beachey held a place of honor, 425 feet up in the air, on the tiptop of the wonderful Tower of Jewels. From this aerial she was able to watch every erratic move of her daredevil son. She cried out only once. That was when he wrote the figures "1000" against the clouds, high above the two miles of completed exhibit palaces, significant of the looping of his one thousandth loop.
"THE END OF THE TRAIL," PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, SAN FRANCISCO, 1915.
This photograph shows James Earle Fraser's superb piece of statuary, "The End of the Trail" at the Panama-Pacific international Exposition. More than 800 beautiful sculptures are shown at the Exposition, the works of famous sculptors of the day. In addition to the sculptures shown out of doors, thousands of beautiful works of art are presented in the great Palace of Fine Arts.
BY HAMILTON WRIGHT. THE construction of the vast Panama-Pacific International Exposition at San Francisco
was 95 per cent completed three months before the opening day, on Boh. 20. 1915. The early installation of thousands of guns of rare and costly exhibits from all parts of the globe and the participation of forty of the world's great countries have assured a celebration that will be unrivaled in its splendor, magnitude, interest and comprehensiveness. From its opening until its close, on Dec. 4. 1915, the Exposition will abound with original features collected at an expenditure of many millions of dollars. It will present a cross section of human achievement. The Pan-

Francisco in a single day, and, far in advance of its opening, the Exposition had created an unprecedented interest throughout the world, and its opening was eager awaited.
In keen competitive exhibits there will be presented more than 80,000 single exhibits and groups of related exhibits portraying the results of the world's best efforts in recent years.
This wonderful Exposition, presented at an outlay of more than $80,000,000, celebrates a contemporaneous agglevement, the building of the Panama canal, and all exhibits that are entered for competitive award will be those that have been originated or produced since the great Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis ten years ago. The possible exception to this rule will be where earlier exhibits are

Many of the displays will be especially adapted to study by the delegates to great national and international congresses and conventions, of which more than 300, embracing almost every phase of human activity, have voted to meet in San Francisco in 1915. Delegates to the congresses interested in social progress and wel-

fare work will, for example, see in the Palace of Mines an exhibit three-fourths of an acre in extent, illustrating the manner in which the largest steel corporation in the world is caring for and plans to still further advance the welfare of its employees. In the Palace of Education they will be interested in a great United States government exhibit. The great war in no way has diminished the prospect of attendance at the Exposition, and thousands of Americans will for the first time enjoy the educative trip across their native land. After the outbreak of the conflict the number of conventions deciding to meet in San Francisco proportionately increased. One of the most important of the assemblages will be the international engineering

congress, at which its distinguished chairman, Colonel George W. Goethals, will preside.
The foreign participation will be notable. The nations are not attempting to show everything that they produce, but will lay especial emphasis upon those products in which they excel. In the Danish display, for example, will be shown products of the Royal Danish porcelain factory at Copenhagen. Japan in her exhaustive exhibit will display priceless works of art, loaned by direction of the imperial household and many of which could not be duplicated. From Italy will be shown historic paintings of the old masters, bitherto never exhibited in America in the originals. From China there have reached San Francisco selections of exhibits collected under the supervision of the governors of the Chinese provinces. Rare silks and satins, carvings, inlay work in the precious metals, exhibits of the transportation methods employed in the old China and the modern methods used in the awakefelling republic will be shown.
New Zealand will make a marvelous exhibit of its rare woods, of its fleeces, of its superb scenic charms. A large number of rare giant tree ferns from New Zealand will be found growing on the Exposition grounds.
The Argentine Republic early set aside a larger sum than any ever appropriated by a foreign nation for representation in an American exposition. The modern cities of Argentina, the schools, churches, libraries, the great live stock and agricultural interests will be extensively portrayed, and the mutual interests of South America and North America will be emphasized in almost every conceivable manner. From South Africa will be shown diamond exhibits and methods of extraction. The magnificent Canadian displays will review not only the widely known agricultural wealth, but will illustrate the scenic charms of the great Dominion. of snow clad mountain peaks, of farreaching forest of inland lakes in chains of silver and rushing mountain streams.

Big International Exposition's Amusements Novel and Wonderful
President Wilson Will Visit Panama-Pacific Display of Nations via Panama Canal-Vanderbilt Cup Race and Grand Prix Will Be Held In San Francisco.
WONDERFUL GLASS DOME OF THE PALACE OF HORTICULTURE, PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, SAN FRANCISCO, 1915.
Palace of Horticulture, looking through the Court of Palms. This beautiful structure has a glass dome 185 feet high and 152 feet in diameter. Crowning the dome is a huge basket. The general style of the architecture is the French renaissance, with Saracenic modification. The extreme length of the palace is 672 feet and breadth 320 feet.
BY HAMILTON WRIGHT.
WONDERFUL and novel amusements, parades and pageants of the oriental countries, auto and yacht races and athletic contests will be observed upon a scale of unexamined magnitude and grandeur at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. The extensive participation of China, Japan, Siam and Indo and Cochin China, when taken in connection with the plans already made and with the interesting oriental population of San Francisco, assures such spectacles as have never before been seen in the incident. Pageants of miles in length set off by wonderful floats and marvelous pyrotechnics will wind through the streets of San Francisco.
There will be held throughout the

entire period of the Exposition, which opens Feb. 20, 1915, a series of great events, including sports and athletic contents of many kinds conducted upon a scale of great magnitude.
The Vanderbilt Automobile Cup Race and the Grand Prix, the two supreme events of the automobile year, will be held upon a four mile course, embracing a circuit of the Exposition palaces, a spectacular background far excelling in beauty and grandeur any which ancient Rome behold during its historic charlotte races. The Vanderbilt Cup Race will take place on Feb. 22 and the Grand Prix on Feb. 22, 1915. Great motorbots of the deep sea cruiser type will race for a $10,000 prize from New York through the Panama canal to the Golden Gate. A series of international yacht races in the twenty one meter class will be held in San Francisco bay. President Woodrow Wilson, Emperor William of Germany and King George of England have each offered trophies in these events. Swimming, water poio, fly casting, canoeing, football, baseball and long distance foot racing are included in a series of more than 200 different kinds of contests. President Wilson himself will attend the Exposition, and it is probable the members of congress will attend in an especially chartered steamer.
Of international interest will be the greatest live stock show in the world's history. More than $500,000 will be awarded in prizes in a continuous live stock exhibit. Rare and valuable breeds of all kinds of live stock from distant countries of the globe will be shown. Specimens of the famous Chillingham wild white cattle will be exhibited for the first time. With the exception of two specimens at the London zoo, this breed has never been shown outside of Chillingham park. England. These cattle are pure white, with black noses, black tips to the ears and black horns. An international sheep shearing contest will be one of the valuable exhibitions.
For the musical events there has been built by the Exposition the magnificent Festival Palace upon the grounds. This is equipped with a wondful pipe organ, upon which Mr. Edwin Lemare, world famous organist, among other celebrities, will give a series of recitals. The International Elstedfedd will at San Francisco compete for $18,000 in cash prizes. More than 30,000 singers will participate in

VAST JUMPHAL ARCH AT THE WORLD'S GREATEST EXPOSITION, THE PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, SAN FRANCISCO, 1915.
Arch of the Setting Sun in the west entrance to the Court of the Universe at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition. Surmounting the area is a group of statuary representing "The Nations of the West." In the middle of the group is an emigrant wagon drawn by oxen. Riding in this is the figure of a woman, "The Mother of Tomorrow," and by her side are two children, "The Hopes of Tomorrow." Other figures represent an American Indian, a Mexican, an Alaskan and other American types.
this event. The famous Salt Lake Mormon choir, the deep toned plaintive singers of Hawaii and even a chorus of fifty Maorian singers will take part in the choir events. At an expenditure of $1,250,000 the Exposition has constructed a great Auditorium in the civic center of San Francisco, which will be used by the great conventions and song festivals. Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Crane will present their latest torschalcore novelty, the "Exposition Tango"; Mr. Harry Lauder will sing the Exposition ballad.
The amusement section of the Exposition, the "Zone" corresponding to the famous "Midway" at the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago, will carry out the purpose of the Exposition to give every feature a high educational value.

A total of more than eleven millions of dollars has been expended in its establishment. The concessions, as these less serious features of the Exposition are known, include a great open air panoramic reproduction of the Yellowstone National park and a similar representation of the Grand Canyon of Arizona, presented by two of the transcon-

thental railways. The Grang Canyon concession is built upon so predicions a scale that visitors will view the canvases from a standard gauge railway coach running on a standard gauge track. A huge working model of the Panama canal is so extensive that visitors seated in comfortable theater chairs will be carried along the route of the canal upon a movable platform, and a dictaphone at the arm of each chair will describe each scene as it comes into view. A novel amusement feature will be provided by working submarine boats of sixty-five tons displacement, which will operate in an artificial lagoon.

Apart from the amusements, conventions and congresses, the vast pageants, the superb pavilions of the nations and the magnificent state buildings, the Exposition itself is a sight well worth seeing. The giant exhibit palaces, the loftiest and most imposing exposition buildings ever constructed, are in their architecture representative of the fine work of a commission of famous American architects, who freely collaborated with distinguished members of this profession abroad.

Scarcely a bride of three months until her friends were compelled to follow her last remains to the grave Wednesday afternoon. Such was the fate of Mrs. Rosa Bly Tumlin, wife of a prominent Mason and citizen, Mr. Edward Tumlin. Mrs. Tumlin was an active worker and a loyal member of the choir and of Scott M. E. church. She was held in the highest esteem by all who knew her and her many, many friends mourn her loss. Her unpretentious manner and sweet and kind disposition easily endeared her to all. The church, choir and Mizpah Art club lose a faithful member and active worker. Mrs. Tumlin ded Saturday afternoon about 2 p. m., leaving a husband, step-children and other relations to mourn her loss. She was buried from Scott M. E. church, Rev. D. Smith officiating.
Miss Ruth Sloan of 985 So. Emerson was hostess at a dainty luncheon complimentary to a number of her young friends last Thursday evening.
