If this is realized, the scheme would then be put on a sound financial footing. The Chief desired all intending subscribers to call at his office at the Hon. E. H. Cummings', East street and announced that the delegates hoped to sail for the Gold Coast in a few days' time. The spacious hall of Bath-urst Street schoolroom was packed to its utmost sitting capacity on Tuesday last, 22nd inst, by a representative body of citizens of Freetown, who assembled to meet Chief Sam and his fellow delegates from the United States, and to hear the aims and objects of their movement. The meeting commenced at 4 p. m., and owing to the illness of the Mayor, the Deputy-Mayor, F. W. Dove, Esq., occupied the chair. Mr. Dove was supported by Dr. A. W. Easmon, M. B., Ch. B., &c., and J. Fowell Boston, Esq., Barrister-at-Law The Chairman opened the meeting with brief remarks, apologizing for the absence of His Worship J. H. Thomas, who was to preside over the gathering, and Chief Sam was called upon to address the audience. A slim, young looking man of medium height and looking a typical Fanti man the great leader of this great movement, rose and expressed his delight at the opportunity. The next speaker was Judge M. A. Sorrell, now honorary purser of the ship. Mr. Sorrell expressed his great delight in being in the father land and among his own brethern. The Black American he said, had been given a wrong impression of his African brother's state of civilization, and he congratulated the people of Sierra Leone on their moral, religious' educational and industrial progress The judge told of the disadvantages and insults to which the black man is subjected in America and declared that the time had come for his return home. At present, he said, a great revolution is going on in the world among the white races. Should the black man sit idle and look on? Now is the time to get together and work for the betterment of our race. spoke in his own inimitable way. He said the African Movement good for three ideas. The industrial and commercial, the patriotic and the missionary ideas. He pointed out the great scope we have along the lines of industry and trade if only we combine. In Sierra Leone he was sorry to say, we had progressed backward in one particular. We had forsaken the communal system for the individualistic system, whereas the white man, who is by nature individualistic, after centuries of trial, had found the individualistic system unworkable and was now becoming communistic. We should get back to the old sensible way of life, in principle if not in detail. The professor told his audience that a few years ago he, with some others, succeeded in establishing the first Negro Bank in the State of North Carolina. That bank is now a flourishing concern, and not only Negroes but even white men are among its depositors. Why could not a similar thing be done in West Africa? The next speaker was Mrs. Hall, one of the delegates. Mrs. Hall was very pleased to be in the homeland, and pleaded for a closer union between Africans at home and Africans in exile. She spoke pathetically of the black man's troubles in America and his wish to return to the home from which he was forced 300 years ago. The Akim Trading Company scheme was a means to help all black people, and she hoped every man and woman in the room would take a share. This brought the speeches to an end, and after a vote of thanks moved Dr. Easmon, second by Mr. Boston, and approved by the audience standing, the meeting—a most interesting one—was brought to a close by the singing of the National Anthem at about 6:30 p. m.—Sierra Leone Weekly News, --- Grand Muster of Citizens To Meet Afro-Ameriican Delegates. ity of meeting with the wrighten of Sierra Leone. Humorously remarking that his personal appearance was a bit disappointing to some people, who had pictured him as a great big, elderly person, the chief observed that he was nevertheless a great man. He then went on to tell how about two years ago wishing to come in touch with our brethren in America and to study conditions there with a view to improving his own country, he visited the United States. Snubbed and unbefriended on account of his color, he underwent the torture of lonesomeness for the fourteen days the voyage lasted between West Africa and Europe. This treatment fired him with ambition and he resolved, come what might, to see that the black man be enabled to work out his own destiny through his own individual efforts. During his propaganda in the States he met with no common persecution. Through the misrepresentations of the Negrophobe Yankee press, he was arrested time and again, but always acquitted honourably. In connection with these arrests, it was remarkable that Judge Sorrell, the Judge before whom he had his first trial, was now honorary purser of the Liberia and one of the leaders of the movement. At length succeeding in enlisting the sympathy of many Afro-Americans, a company called the Akim Trading Co., was floated with a capital of about a million dollars. The Company has a broad charter from the United States Government. It is empowered to do many kinds of businesses. It is the intention of the promoters to make it a national African concern, and directors will be appointed in the various Colonies. Shares in the Company are to be had for £5 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, FEB. 27 1915 FACING THE LIONS On every turn, in travel, pulpit, press, society, state affairs and functions, in local, foreign and governmental activities in business, musical, intellectual and necropolic realm is this hydro headed poisonous monster showing his effects and supplying away at the life of this American nation. Surely such a condition supplies a problem to tax the brain and character of the leaders of this nation to solve in accordance with the demands of justice. Must wrong continue to be added to wrong? Or is reason and judgment, humanity and justice so barely overthrown that men are impotent to call them again to their accustomed seats? If the noble thoughts, actions, inspirations and achievements of the Negro bread winners were given one half the prominence in the big daily papers, the weekly and monthly magazines as that accorded to the Negro criminal and the alleged criminal, the Race would have a better place even in prejudiced America. As it is, the picture is all one sided, all black! The worst and the weakest side is constantly held up for the contempt of mankind and we are regarded as incapable of anything that is good and noble, entitled to none of the consideration, virtue, possessing no vested rights, deserving of no gratitude for service, worthy of no rewards for sacrifice—just Negroes, black and horrible! grace. In Denver in less than a fortnight ago, the play, the "Nigger" was given at the Denham, our new theater. The play was designed not ennoble and depict the best qualities of the Negro folk, but was a silent and veiled attack upon the lofty ambitions of the intellectual Negro of the Nation. The play was a direct appeal to the latent color prejudice, as well as kindling the fires of racial passions. But the psychological moment of its presentation when Jim Crowism, racial intermarriage and barring Negroes out of the United States were being discussed in Congress, is sure to have an intensifying and solidifying effect against the Negro. Negro womanhood is paying this terrible toll of injustice. Negro women have never been given a fair chance. The Negro woman or girl starts out in life with a motive, lofty ambition, nature has been kind to bless her with beauty, but ten thousand foes arise to draw her from the paths of virtue. Likened unto a heroine she struggled on, fighting with beasts of every description and doing her utmost to be respectable and decent, and if she errs or falls and strives to rise and correct her mistakes, a hundred forces that helped to drag down will seek to crush her, and make her an outcast, despised and rejected by men. Did you ever stop and think when looking in your daughters or sisters face, what this creature would have to endure? Labor Unions organized, churches, society, governmental and state activities opposing her progress. Yet to the Negro race she is the greatest force in all the world. She is the salt of human government and the bulwark of nations. She is the queen of earth and the refining process of the home. Ingersoll has said; "It takes a hundred men to make an encampment, but one woman can make a home." She is not only admired as the most beautiful object ever created, but revered as the redeeming glory of humanity, the sanctuary of all virtues, the pledge of all perfect of heart and head. The one thing in this world that is content, the one peak that rises above all clouds, the one window in which light forever burns, the one star that darkness cannot quench, is woman's love. It rises to the greatest height; it sinks to the lowest depths. It forgives the most cruel injustices. Neither coldness nor neglect, harshness nor cruelty can extinguish it. A woman's love is the perfume of the heart. It subdues the earth, has wrought all miracles of art that gives us music all the way from the cradle to the grave closing symphony that bears the soul away on the wings of life. A love that is greater than power, sweeter than life and stronger than death. Now turn and see burlesque pictures of the worst specimen conceivabe of Negro women and girls in form, feature dress and environment are placarded in the most public places. They are used by some business concerns for advertisement purposes at the great expense of Negro womanhood. Such pictures impress and are impressing white Americans that in spite of the Negro's contact with civilization, which is highly Continued on Page 4. SHORTER'S FORMER PASTOR HONORED. Brings Honor to Denver Church and Race. Captain Oscar J. W. Scott, of the 25th Infantry, has been raised from the grade of First Lieutenant to that of Captain in the United States Army. Captain Scott was for years one of Denver's leading preachers and a strong representative of the Race. He distinguished himself in his attack upon the defense given the lynching and burning at Limon, Colo., by some of the white ministers of this city. After leaving Denver, he received an appointment to the leading A. M. E. church in Kansas City, Mo., thence he was assigned to Washington's leading and aristocratic Metropolitan A. M. E. church in the District of Columbia. He was appointed Chaplain by President Roosevelt and confirmed April 17, 1807. He has served with his regiment in Texas, in the Philippines, in the state of Washington and is now in Hawaii. He has been a successful preacher and has worked hard to improve the social and physical condition of his soldiers. It is a matter of deep congratulation to the Negro Race in America that their army chaplains have almost without exception had so good a record for manliness and morality. Court Confirms Judgment of $200. The judgment for $200 obtained by Dr. Kenneth Megahy and Benjamin D. Gibbs against Arras Bros., saloonmen at Cor. Broadway and 242d street, was sustained by Justices Guy, Bijur and Gavegan last week in the Appelate Term. The two colored men were charged 50 cents for a glass of beer and $1 for a glass of gin, which they refused to pay, leaving the saloon without being served. Suit was entered against Arras Bros. for discrimination under the new Levy law, and the 5th Municipal Court awarded verdict for $200. Former suits under the old Civil Rights law were settled favorably to the colored men filing them, and this case is the first under the Levy Law to be carried for the Appellate Term.—Age. Suspension of Masons Up- Held by Maryland Court. Annapolis, Md.—Judge Brashears of the Circuit Court of Anne Arundel County has handed down an order temporarily restraining the Maryland Grand Lodge of Masons, its Grand Master, Joseph P. Evans, and Universal Lodge of this city from continuing the suspensions of certain members of the latter body. FIVE CENTS A COPY. The members were charged with appearing in court last winter in injunction by Henry Valentine, at that time worshipful master of Universal Lodge, seeking to prevent the Gand Lodge from unduly interfering with him as presiding officer. The witnesses in the case were suspended for six months by the Grand Lodge at its annual session, held in Hagerstown last August.—Age. Ancient Statue from Africa. Rome.—Libya, In Africa, again has given an ancient piece of sculpture to the world. At Cyrene, once the principal city of ancient Cyrenaica, a colossal statue of Alexander the Great, lacking only a part of the right forearm, has been excavated. It is a magnificent marble copy of the celebrated bronze of Alexander by Lysippus, which is known only by copies on coins, the original having been destroyed. The statue probably was made some 50 or 60 years after the original in the third or fourth century before Christ. It is larger than life size.—Guardian. Georgia Judge Wants to Funish Lynchers. Monticello, Ga.—Judge Park today made an earnest appeal to the Grand Jury to indict every member of the mob that recently lynched four Negroes at this place for whipping a policeman who tried to arrest them for selling whisky. Judge Clark said in part to the Grand Jury: "It is strange that men of the white race should so far forget themselves as to join a mob to do violence on Negroes; for white men to deprive a man of his life by mob violence is not in accordance with the traditions that have governed the Anglo-Saxon race from time immoral. It is cowardly murder for a mob to wrest a prisoner from an officer and swing his body to a limb and riddle it with bullets The members of the mob have placed on the pages of Georgia history a blot that time will not efface for many years to come."—Age. Race Segregation Forbidden In Atlanta. Atlanta, Ga.—Segregation in Atlanta has been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of Georgia, in passing upon an ordiance passed by the city council to segregate the residences of white and Negro persons. The ordinance designated certain city blocks for the residence of whites, certain ones for Negroes, and others where both races might live. The court in its decision, said that to prohibit members of the two races from living in the same city block was "to deny the inherent right of a person to acquire, enjoy or dispose of property, and for these reasons is violative of the due process clause of the federal and state constitution"—Age.

It will be good news to the friends of Chief Sam, the African Moses who is leading a movement looking to the commercial redemption of the black race, to learn that he and his party have safely arrived in West Africa. The following note from the Sierra Leone Weekly News may be of interest: "We understand that during this week by the closest investigation of the papers, Jan. 5, the Liberia discloses she is not a prize ship, as was reported, and that her release was expected in a few days. The ship has had no contact whatever with the enemy and was actually at anchor loading a cargo of salt in a neutral port when she was seized on suspicion, and only four hours were allowed her to get up steam ready for sea. "Part of her cargo had to be abandoned, and it was with some inconvenience that provisions for the voyage for Sierra Leone could be got within the prescribed time. The Liberia was flying the British flag and was registered at Bridgetown, Barbados, an English colony." Since the above was published the Liberia has lauded at Sierra Leone, where a great public meeting was held in honor of Chief Sam and his party, at which many able addresses were delivered by prominent Sierra Leoneans and by Chief Sam and some of the Americans with blim. The Liberia is now en route to the Gold Coast with the O. K. of the English government. CENTRAL BAPISTIST CHURCH 24th St., between California and Stout Sts. Phone York 8193. SCOTT M. E.

THE NEW WAV 50 65 DR. JUST WINS SPINGARN MEDAL Young Howard Professor Is Awarded First Prize. FOR HIGHEST ACHIEVEMENT. One Hundred Dollar Gold Medal, the Gift of Dr. Joel E, Spingarn, Presented to Successful Candidate by Governor Charles S. Whitman—Great Throng Witnesses Ceremony. BY N. BARNETT DODSON. New York.—On Friday evening, Feb 12, in the presence of an audience of upward of 2,000 people, at the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Ethical Culture hall Governor Whitman awarded to Dr Ernest Everett Just the first Spingarn medal. This $100 gold medal is offered annually by Dr. J. E. Spingarn, chairman of the board of directors of the National association, to the man or woman of African descent and American citizenship who shall have made the highest achievement during the preceding year in any field of elevated or honorable human endeavor. Dr. Just since 1912 has been professor and head of the department of physiology in Howard University Medical school. He was born in Charleston, S. C., thirty-one years ago. He was prepared for college at Kimbali Union academy at Meriden, N. H., and was graduated from Dartmouth in 1907, magna cum laude, being the only one of his class to receive this special honor. He was also elected to the Phi Beta Kappa. From 1909 to 1914 he has devoted his summers to research work at the Marine Biological laboratory, Woods Hole, Mass. He has been doing special research work in physiology and zoology since 1911. In spite of his youth and the amount of time that his professional position requires him to devote to academic routine, he has been since 1912 a regular contributor to scientific periodicals. The Biological Bulletin, the official organ of the marine biological laboratory, has published a series of his scholarly accounts of his scientific investigations. He has now in press an 1910 DR. ERNEST EVERETT JUST, WINNER OF THE FIRST SPINGARN MEDAL, PRESENTED FEB. 12, 1915. article which is to appear in the Journal of Morphology, which is the organ of the Wister Institute of Medicine and Biology, Philadelphia. Dr. Just was chosen from a long list of candidates in many fields. He was recommended by men of the highest professional standing of both races. Dr. Jacques Loeb of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, in writing of Dr. Just, said: "His knowledge of biology and his critical ability are of an unusually high and lofty order. In the work he devotes to Howard university he is guided by very high motives, since the remuneration he receives is only a fraction of his nominal salary. He could easily increase his income by giving up his position. Dr. Just has sacrificed a good deal for the advancement of medical schools for colored people, and he will do a good deal more if he is given a chance, as I hope he may be." Professor Lillie of Chicago university, who has collaborated with Dr. Just in some of his research work, in recommending him wrote: "Dr. Just is a relatively young man of high scientific attainments and has great enthusiasm and ability in research. In the last two and a half years he has published or has in press six articles. His most recent work is of the greatest significance and would insure him a wide reputation if he were a white man. No doubt you know of his position in Howard university, in Washington, and the good work he is doing there in bringing up the standards of medical education in his own race. The conditions under which he is obliged to carry it on are in some respects highly discouraging." The committee who decided the award were: Bishop John Hurst, chairman; Ex-President Taft, John Hope, president of Morehouse college; Dr. James H. Dillard, director of the Jeanes and Slater funds, and Oswald Garrison Villard, president of the New York Evening Post company. The Spingarn medal is offered each year by Dr. Spingarn and is not restricted to any particular field of human endeavor. The next award will probably be made at the annual conference of the association during the first week in May. After the speech by Governor Whitman Professor William Pickens of Wiley university made an eloquent appeal for his race. There were ten minute addresses by Mirza Ali Kuli Kahn, representative of Persia to the United States: Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman. KIT VINCENT MORGAN AND THE ALEXANDRIA COLORADO MUSEUM Gold medal, costing $100, donated by Dr. Joel E. Spingarn of New York, chairman of the board of directors of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People. The medal was awarded by Governor Charles S. Whitman of New York to Dr. Ernest Everett Just, head of the department of physiology, Howard university medical school, Washington, for having made the highest achievement in a special field of any person of the colored race during the year preceding the annual meeting of the association. The presentation was witnessed by six slaves at fourth Street, New York, Feb. 12, 1956. Dr. Just is a native of South Carolina, having been born in Charleston thirty-one years ago. Mooredell Storey, president of the National association; Dr. W. E. B. Du Bols and Lindon Bates, Jr. Oswald Garrison Villard presided. The National Association For the Advancement of Colored People seeks to uplift the colored men and women of this country by securing to them the full enjoyment of their rights as citizens, justice in all courts and equality of opportunity everywhere. It favors and aims to aid every kind of education among them save that which teaches special privilege or prerogative, class or caste. It recognizes the national character of the Negro problem and no sectionalism. It believes in the upholding of the constitution of the United States and its amendments in the spirit of Abraham Lincoln. It upholds the doctrine of "all men up and no man down." It abhors Negro crime, but, still more, the conditions which breed crime, and, most of all, the crimes committed by mobs in the mockery of the law or by individuals in the name of the law. It believes that the scientific truths of the Negro problem must be available before the country can see its way wholly clear to right existing wrongs. It has no other belief than that the best way to uplift the colored man is the best way to aid the white man to peace and social content. It has no other desire than exact justice and no other motive than humanity. The committee on the Spingarn prize spent much time and thought before it finally decided that, taking all things into consideration, from the many names of candidates presented that the farreaching results of the professional and scientific work of Dr. Just in its relation to human enlightenment as touching racial advancement during the fiscal year of the association merited the gold medal thus presented. The intellectual ability of Dr. Just shows that the colored man is capable of attaining to as high development in literature and science as men of other races are. New Rector of St. Thomas' Church. The Rev. William E. Hendricks, formerly of Porto Rico, was recently installed rector of the St. Thomas Episcopal church on Twelfth street, Philadelphia. The Rev. Mr. Hendricks is a graduate of the General Theological seminary, New York. For the past three years Rector Hendricks has been very successful in conducting missionary work in Porto Rico. He is also a graduate of Lincoln university and received the degree of bachelor of arts from Yale college. Bishop Rhinelander officiated at the installation ceremonies of the Rev. Mr. Hendricks. Minnesota Odd Fellows Are Active. The Odd Fellows' fraternity of Minnesota is showing timely interest in the erection of a new modern building for the order in St. Paul.

Doing the Square Thing—Are You One? The Ministerial Alliance of Denver, together with the Denver People's Alliance, after a thorough investigation of the case of J. W. Jones, have decided that his is a worthy cause for the charity and assistance of all colored men and women. It appears that in self defense he killed another man. He was tried and sentenced to hang Dec. 15, 1914. Ex-Gov. Ammons reprieved him until May, 1915. We must raise $200 to get his case to the Supreme court before that time. Jones is without friends, has no money and faces death. We believe the Supreme court will rule in his favor. We must raise $200. We appeal to you. Act at once. Send your donations to Titus S.

I myself am a victim of unfortunate circumstances; incidentally I am serving a sentence of 15 years for an accidental murder, and from what I can learn from those whose names appear below, their cases in a degree are similar to mine, and we as a matter of experience can easily imagine Mr. Jones' predicament at this juncture.

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, 2172 Welton St., Denver, Colo., treasurer. The Star would like for some laboring man of color to go over to the West Colfax viaduct and apply for a Job. Go prepared to go to work. We are informed that the construction company has a contract or agreement not to hire negroes. Will some reliable person go. That is a city job. SANATORIUM NOTES. The mermorship rally held on the 16th inst. did not come up to our expectations. A number of the workers have made no report during the whole campaign and many of the volunteer subscriptions of last fall were not pald. Of course there is a reason for these things, but reasons are not money and hence no contract of purchase can be entered without money and the officers frankly make known to the public why no purchase is made. These facts, however, only tell one side of the story. They do not tell of the numerous fruitless efforts by some who did not succeed and they do not tell of those who succeeded beyond expectations, nor of the encouraging correspondence from persons in other towns in Colorado, nor of a certain encouragement from a source which we are not liberty to mention at this time. Nor of the determination and plans to succeed notwithstanding the slowness of progress. They only explain why at this time we shall not be able to contract for a sight for our sanatorium as we had hoped to do. We shall not report on all the workers who have to date secured some real money but only mention a few inspiring examples. We had plans for ten members from each worker and those who came near or over the amount were: Mrs. C. W. Buford nine, Mrs. Charlsey Barness 14 members, besides pay on a subscription of $10 that she made to the association, making a total of $24.25 turned in by her, and Madame Perkins-Wilson writes us her personal check for $25 and gives her word that there is a like amount to follow. And there are a number who have contributed smaller amounts. A word of explanation is here due all contributors and workers at this point. At the close of the fiscal year of the association, which occurs in June, we will publish, as we have promised, every name who has contributed, even to + five cents, and give you the financial statement of the treasurer on receipts and disbursements. So don't think you or your friend have been overlooked. We have followed this custom in the past and will give you in June an account of our stewardship. We have many things to hope for and the outlook for success is more substantial now than at any time during the history of the movement. In a short time the 95 persons who now constitute the membership will be called together to hear the plans and statement from the officers. Watch the Star for printed reports and information. Facing The Lions. (Continued from page 1.) cultural she is still gross in physical, savage in feature, antiquated in dress and degenerate in home life and will, if constantly kept before the negro womanhood in America make her despise herself for no other reason than that the American people scorn and belittle men and women who have committed the crime of having been born black instead of white. It is a sad commentary on a civilized government when worth and character must surrender to petty race prejudices, particularly when such concessions dwarf the development and growth of an entire race, intellectually, financially, physically and morally. Intellectually, because the doors of many of our higher institutions are closed against her, and yet she is expected to compete with the woman who can enter any college in the world. This privilege having been denied her, she is branded as mentally inferior to women of other race. Financially because she is underpaid, therefore underpaid. Besides there are so many fields of labor regardless of her culture, refinement and capability into which she may not enter because of race prejudice. Physically because she is barred from athletic associations which make it possible for to take the physical culture so necessary to form a sound physical body, symmetry of form, etc. Morally because of the congested man in many instances in which this hydra-headed monster, prejudice, forces her to live. If the locality is desirable the rent is so extortionate that she must all sorts of person into her home to meet the monthly expense. Again, although her salary is less than any other class of citizen she must pay interest for her color. This condition is calculated to lower the moral status of any race or people To shut the door of opportunity in the face of any woman and then brand her as indolent, unchaste and irresponsible is a malicious wrong. To bar her from educational advantages and then label her as inferior is equally as wrong. There are women in our race whose identity would be imperceptible under a microscope, yet if it is known that they possess one percent of negro blood the 99 per cent of Caucasian blood counts for naught and others, even mathematics is no factor in this problem. Hence discrimination is not based on the complexion nor the texture of the hair. There are scores of refined women who are just as much ostracized as the most vagrant and uncouth of their race. Everything in mental, spiritual, physical and material world is done to discourage and embarrass them. Now add to these burdens the contemplated law of the District of Columbia which makes it a crime for white men to correct any sexual and sensual wrongs done against negro womanhood. This act is opposed to the laws of nature which are the final arbiters in the marriage relation, and do not yield their authority to the fiat of human law. Second. The effect of this act, should it become a law, will be to take away the means of legal redress from any woman of the colored race who may be seduced into entering into unlawful relations with any member of the white race, and stigmatize her offspring. It will also promote lewdness and encourage bastardy. It smacks of the code of the slaveholder who held the women of our race as prey to his unholy lusts, cursing her own offspring with a propensity to immorality and vice. Third. It is opposed to the spirit and purpose of democratic institutions, which aim to promote justice in the social relations of the citizens through equal rights to all, irrespective of race or conditions. Thus you can see what the Lions of destruction discouragement, disgrace and even of degradation itself, that the noble negro womanhood have faced and is facing confidently, resolutely and defiantly as she wrestles and fights against heavy odds to retain her very existence in the land of the free and home of the brave. Negro womanhood has been lynched, assassinated and burned in Christian America and is paying full price for its invaluable asset to the race. WILL TAKE THE GOSPEL OF RACE? There is a prominent member of Shorter church who works for a wealthy white family and has done so for years, and who is worth several thousand dollars and has lately made her will giving her money and property to a white lawyer's daughter. She owns two lots in a valuable residential section of the city, near City Park. The Negro of Denver needs a consumptive home, mothers' day nursery, and needs all the assistance and this wealthy Caucasian lawyer needs no assistance, nor does his little daughter. COLORADO SPRINGS.

Waller French, secretary; Miss M. Miller, assistant secretary; L. F. Hunt, treasurer; Hon. J. Edwine Barnes, C. E., and the Rev. D. W. Perdue, chaplains; Professor H. Lawrence Freeman (director New York Choral society), musical director; Mrs. H. L. Freeman, chairman of program committee. The new society starts out under the most favorable circumstances. Dr Martin, its president, also is vice president of the Negro Society For Historical Research and has a collection of rare books and books bearing on the race, some 5,000 volumes, which will be accessible to its members, as will be also the collection of books by A. A. Schomburg and J. E. Bruce, secretary and president respectively of the Historical society. GETTING HOLD OF THE LAND. George A. Carter of Washington Buys Rich Tract In Virginia. The tidewater section of Virginia is noted for its rich farm land, suitable especially for truck gardening. There is always a demand for fruits and vegetables of various kinds raised in this section, and farmers who are fortunate enough to own acreage in tidewater take pride in the fact that they have easy access to the principal cities and towns both by rail and waterway in shipping their produce. Richmond, Petersburg. Norfolk, Suffolk, Portsmouth and City Point form a chain of cities which are conveniently reached by people in the rural districts. The recent purchase by George A. Carter of Washington of 100 acres of farm land in King George county is regarded as a splendid move. Mr. Carter is a successful business man. He is at present engaged in the lunch room business, but the indications are that he may turn his attention to extensive farming in the near future. Mr. Carter paid $3,000 cash for his Virginia farm. He is a prominent member of both the Odd Fellows and masonic fraternity and is well known and highly respected in Washington. NEW PRESIDENT OF BANK. Directors of a Birmingham (Ala.) Institution Elect Hon. J. O. Diffay. Birmingham. Ala.—Hon. J. O. Diffay, for several years vice president of the Alabama Penny Savings bank, was elected president of the institution, including the branches at Anniston, Selma and Montgomery, at a meeting of the newly elected board of directors held the last week in January. Mr. Diffay was with Dr. W. R. Pettiford. B. H. Hudson and Peter F. Clarke twenty-five years ago when the bank was established and has been a hard and consistent worker for the institution ever since. He is one of the most prominent men of our race in the state. He is identified with much of its M. business and fraternal interests and is a large holder of real estate in Birmingham. As vice president of the institution he took charge of affairs temporarily during the last illness of the former president, Dr. W. R. Pettiford, and succeeded in full charge on Dr. Pettiford's death. His election to the presidency by the board of directors was unanimous. Placed on the board of directors this year were: J. O. Diffay, B. H. Hudson, Peter F. Clarke, T. W. Walker, John W. Goodgame, John H. Jones, P. M. Edwards, A. M. Brown, H. M. Strickland, D. P. Moore, R. T. Jackson, Walter R. Pettiford, J. S. Jackson, R. L. Mabry and T. C. Windham. The report of the president and cashier showed the bank to be in excellent shape, having earned a profit of $18,000 during the past year. The earnings were placed in the undivided profits. Leyal Members of a Secret Society. The United Brothers of Friendship is one of the largest and most thrifty of the many organizations of its kind operated by the race. The mutual aid department of the order in the jurisdiction of Texas received from its members for the last quarter of 1914 the sum of $82,915.29. Your letter of the 5th inst., with check enclosed for $63.5 in full payment of my illness claim, was received in due time, and I wish to thank you for your promptness in settling my claim. Receipt of full indemnity within five days after I malled you proof of illness certainly speaks well of the dispatch with which you handle claims arising under your policies, and you are to be commended for your quick action in paying claims.

At a recent meeting held in this city under the auspices of the Afro-American Civic league George H. Mays, Jr., one of the men who are leading in this work in Marion county, was the speaker of the occasion and told his people in Tampa how they might join in the movement and do something for themselves. "Mays is himself an example of what a hardworking, intelligent and respectable Negro can do with his opportunities. He is a graduate of Tuskegee, taught in schools in the north and is now the head of a banking investment institution at Ocala organized and managed by Negroes. He believes that the south is the best place for the Negroes and that their future lies in this section of the country. Mays so enjoys the confidence of the white citizens of Ocala that many of them have deposits in his bank. He is always urging members of his race to strive for industrial independence, and it is due to him that those of Marion county have taken account of their opportunities and have begun to work toward better ends." PLANS FOR OBSERVANCE OF NATIONAL HEALTH WEEK Business League's President on Importance of Checking Death Toll. Under the call of the executive committee of the National Negro Business league, Dr. Booker T. Washington president, preparations are going forward in all parts of the country, in the south particularly, for carrying out the suggestions which have been outlined by Dr. Washington and the executive committee for the observance of national health week among our people. The particular reasons for asking the colored people of the country to observe national health week are set forth in a bulletin statement issued and which follows. Dr. Washington says: First.—We are asking the colored people of the nation to unite in observing a national Negro health week in the belief that in carrying out the suggestions outlined below they will be doing the best possible service to themselves and to the race. Many diseases are spread from the sick to the well by means of germs that come from the sick person. These germs find their way into filth and waste and reach the bodies of well persons, to whom they give the disease. Second.—"Diseases Most Fatal to Negroes." The following are the diseases most fatal to Negroes: Diseases of infancy, from which 27 per cent of all deaths among Negroes occur; tuberculosis, from which 18 per cent of all Negroes die; pneumonia, 11 per cent of all their deaths; diseases of the heart, 8 per cent of all their deaths; Bright's disease, 7 per cent of all their deaths; diarrhea, 8 per cent of all their deaths. Third.—"Diseases Exact Their Greatest Toll From the Young." The diseases which annually sweep away such large numbers of our people exact their greatest toll of babies and children and of our young men and women, who, being in the very prime of life, constitute, economically and intellectually, the most valuable asset for the future progress of our race. Instead of these persons living and doing service as leaders of the masses of our people they give their lives a useless toll to death. Our only remedy for this fearful drain on the pick and flower of our young womanhood and manhood is a widespread inculcation of the habit of clean surroundings and clean living. A suggestive or outline program will be issued very soon, the purpose being to ask various communities to take copies of this outline program and have it reprinted in their various communities, under the auspices of the several co-operating agencies so that a definite program for getting results may be followed in each community where National Negro health week is to be observed beginning on Sunday, March 21. NEW PRESIDENT OF FISK. Alumni of Noted Tennessee School Pledge Dr. McKenzie Hearty Support. At an enthusiastic meeting of the Fisk club held recently in Washington the election of Dr. Fayette Avery McKenzie to the presidency of Fisk university, Nashville, Tenn., was heartily commended. Practically every member of the Fisk club of Washington was present, and Dr. McKenzie, who attended the meeting, expressed himself as highly pleased with the reception accorded him by this gathering of representative alumni. Resolutions were forwarded to the board of trustees commending its action, and Dr. McKenzie was assured of the hearty good will and loyal cooperation of the Washington alumni in all the efforts which he may make for the upbuilding of the noted institution of which he is soon to assume charge. MAJOR MOTON'S ACTIVITY. President of Organization Society of Virginia Plans Big Work. Hampton, Va.-At a meeting recently held at the Hampton institute called by Major Moton, president of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia, there were present about ninety representatives of the various societies, organizations and settlements in Elizabeth City county. Va., as well as the ministers of various denominations, teachers in the schools, other leading men and women of the race and the officers of Hampton institute. Great interest was shown in the aims of the Negro Organization society, and a determination to co-operate in every way possible for the betterment of the colored people in the county. It was decided to call a mass meeting in the Hampton institute gymnasium in the early part of April to consider definite measures for reducing the present large death rate among the colored people in this vicinity. The meeting will be followed by a "clean- A. B. MAJOR R. R. MOTON. up week," which will be generally observed throughout Elizabeth City county. A committee was appointed at this meeting consisting of ministers, teachers and other representatives from all the various districts in the county, whose duty it will be to work up an interest among all the colored people of their localities. It was suggested that the societies formed among our people to visit the sick and bury the dead co-operate for the purpose of hiring district nurses who will visit the homes for the instruction of housewives in sanitation and for the care of the sick. One of the objects of the April meeting is to raise $2,000 toward a new schoolhouse. The school superintendent, Mr. Willis, having promised the colored people that a satisfactory school building shall be erected if they raise $2,000 during the coming spring, great interest is manifested in the raising of this sum. BIRMINGHAM BANK MERGER Penny Savings and Prudential Concerns in Alabama Metropolis Unite. Birmingham, Ala.-The consolidation of the Alabama Penny Savings and the Prudential Savings banks in this city, announced the first week in February after a joint meeting of the boards of directors of the two institutions, has been met with instant favor on the part of leading white and colored people of Birmingham. Colonel Tom O. Smith, vice president of the Birmingham Trust and Savings company; W. A. Porter, presidents of the Merchants and Mechanics Savings bank, and W. W. Crawford of the American Trust and Savings bank and other leading white bankers have indorsed the step as one that will bring to the Negro race in this section increased good. The Alabama Penny Savings bank was established twenty-five years ago by the late Dr. W. R. Pettiford, J. O. Diffay, B. H. Hudson, two of the present officials and others and is the oldest and strongest Negro bank in this country. It has a paid in capital of $61,000. The Prudential Savings bank established four years ago by Dr. U. G. Mason, W. W. Hudnott, W. J. Echols and others, is the only Negro bank to have begun operations with a paid in capital of $25,000. The combined institution under the new merger will have a capital stock of $100,000 paid in. A strong indorsement of the step was wired to Dr. U. G. Mason by Dr. Booker T. Washington. The consolidation will go in effect within thirty days from announcement. Lucy Nichols of Civil War Fame Dies. Perhaps the only woman of our race holding membership in a Grand Army of the Republic post of white persons was the late Mme. Lucy Nichols, who died on the last day of January at New Albany, Ind. She was a member of the Twenty-third Indiana regiment, having joined the regiment in Tennessee in 1861. Mme. Nichols was a member of Sanderson post, G. A. R., and was pensioned by special act of congress several years ago. She was a nurse in the civil war and became famous for the care and sympathy which she displayed in attending sick and wounded soldiers on many battlefields. Christmas Club Adds New Members. The Christmas club of the Wage Earners' bank at Savannah, Ga., for 1915 has recently added to its membership 500 persons.

When Lincoln Beachey, a son of San Francisco-on the occasion of his homecoming after breaking all world rec. ords an a daredevil looper of 909 loops, performed two entirely new and death defying stunts over the completed Palaces of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition it was bis aged mother who for the first time waved him on to fresh achievements. Mra. Beachey beld « place of honor, 485 feet up in the alr. on the tiptop of the won- Gerful Tower of Jewels, From this aerie 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. “ay R pO , ( ee fa ' ory " yen ; | Ne, Nea Leet al LO EF “THE END OF THE TRAIL,” PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONA ‘This photograph shows James Karle Fraser's superb plece 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 famour sculptors of the day. In addition to the sculptures shown out of doors, thousands of beautiful works of art are presented im the great Palace of Fine Arts. By HAMILTON WRIGHT. 1 construction of the vast Panama-Pacific International Exposition at San Francisco was, 95 per cent completed threv months before the opening day, on Feb. 20, 1915. The early installa- thos of thousands of tons of rare and emily exhibits from all parts of the globe and the participation of forty of te world’s grent countries have assur- 4 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 collect- e@ at an expenditure of many millions of dollars. It will present a crons sec- tion of human achievement. The Pan- ama canal is today open and doing business on a far vaster scale than was Predicted for it, and the Exposition, which celebrates the opening of the ca- nal, is today revealed as the greatest manifestation of national achievement im American history. Here will be a neutral ground where even nations en- gaged in warfare will display on a scale never before equaled their prog- ress in the arts, industries and sclences of peace. ‘Within three months before the open- ing of the Exposition as many as 2,000 tons of consignments bad reached San Francisco in a single day, and, far in advance of its opening, the Exposition had créated an unprecedented interest throughout the world, and its opening was eagerly awaited. In keen competitive exhibits there will De presented more than 80,000 sin- gle evhibits and groups of related ex- hibtt portraying the results of the worlt's best efforts in recent years. ‘This wonderful Exposition, present- ed at an outlay of more than $00,000,- 000. celebrates a contemporaneous acblevement, the building of the Pana- om canal, and all exhibits that are en- tered for competitive award will be ‘those that have been originated or pro- duced since the great Louisiana Pur- chase Exposition at St. Louis ten years agv. The possible exception to this rule will be where earlier exhibits are shown to illustrate the evolution of the Processes of manufacture—as, for ex- ample, a display of « model of the first cotton gin in connection with the mar- velous equipment into which it has evolved. Many of the displays will be espe- cially adapted to study by the dele- gates to great national and interna- tional congresses and conventions, of which more than 300, embracing al- most 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 Miues an exhibit three fourths of an acre in extent. ‘tus trating the manner tn which the largest steel corporation In the world is cartag for and plans to still fur- ther advance the welfare of iis em- ployees. In the Palace ef Education they will be Interested in 3 great Unitet States government exk‘bit. ‘The great war in uo way has dimin- ished the prospect of attendunce at the Exposition, and thousands of Americans will for the first time en- Joy the educative trip across their na- tive land. After the outbreak of the conflict the number of conventions de- effing to meet in San Francisco pro- portionately increased. One of the maost important of the assemblages will be the internationa) engineering congress, at which its distinguished chairman, Colonel George W. Goethals, will preside. The foreign pftticipation will be notable ‘The nations are not attempt- ing to show everything that they pro- duce, but will lay especial emphasis upon those products in which they ex cel. In the Danish display, for exam ple, will be shown products of the Royal Danish porcelain factory at Co- penbagen. Japan in her exhaustive ex- hibit will display priceless works of art, loaned by direction of the tmperial household and many of which could hot be duplicated. From Italy wil! be shown historic paintings of the old masters, hitherto never exhibited in America in the originals. From China there have reached San Francisco se lections of exhibits collected under the supervision of the governors of the Chi. nese 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 awakening republic will be shown. New Zealand will make a marvel. ous 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 srowing on the Exposition grounds The Argentine Republic early set asido a larger sum than any ever ap- propriated by a foreign nation for rep- resentation in an American expoaftion. ‘The modern cities of Argentina, the schools, churches, lbraries, the great live stock and agricultural interests will be extensively portrayed, and the mutual interests of South America and North America will be emphasized tn almost every conceivable manner. From South Africa will be shown dia- mond exhibits and methods of extrac. tion, The magnificent Canadian dis- plays will review not only the widely known agricultural wealth, but will Mllustrate the scenic charms of) the great Dominion, of snow clad moun: tain perky. of furreaching forest, of inland inken tn chains of silver apd 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. a bt mg a toe aay ; rox e Ss 2 lag ea ' ; ae: ag ee ii AS. s aoe 5 ee: : | i= | i wali €5 | accom ae Ai (Sinonnele lt Seen 0 ono ee a i : - os ed A ey | fete ' re 3 aii - 7 y ws Sg ie = Kan WONDERFUL GLASS DOME OF THE PALACE OF HORTICULTURE, PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNA- TIONAL EXPOSITION, SAN FRANCISCO, 1915.

The extensive participation of China, Japan, Siam and Indo and Cochin Chi- a, when tiken in connection with the plans aleady made and with the interesting eriental population of San Francisco, assures such spectacles as ave never tefore been seen in the oc- cident. Pageants of miles in length set off by wonderful floats and mar- Yelous pyrot-chnics will wind through the streets 0) 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 contests of many kinds conducted upon a scale of great magnitude. The Vanderbilt Automobile Cup Race and the Grand Prix, the two su- preme 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 whieh ancient Rome beheld during its historic chariot races. The Vander bilt Cup Race will take place on Feb. 22 and the Grand Prix on Feb. 27, 1915. Great motorboats of the deep sem eruiser type will race for a $10,000 prise from New York through the Pan- ama canal to the Golden Gate. A se- ries of international yacht races in the twenty-one meter class will be held in San Francisco bay. Presitent Weodrow Wilson, Emperor William of Germany and King George of England have each offered trophies in these events. Swimming, water polo, fy casting, canoeing, football, baseball and long distance foot racing are in- cluded in a series of more than 200 dif- ferent kinds of contests. President Whson himself will attend the Expo- sition, and it is probable the members of congress will attend in an especial- ly chartered steamer. Of international tnterest will be the gTeatest 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 yaluable ‘vreeds of all kinds of live stock from distant countries af the globe wil be shown. Specimens of the famops Chilfingbam wild white cattle will be exhibited for the frst time. With the exception of two specimens at the Lon- dom 00, this breed has never been shown outside of Chillingham park, England. These cattle are pure white, with black noses, black tips to the ears an@ black horns. An international sheep shearing contest will be one of the tmique exhibitions.

The famous Salt Lake Mormon choir, the deep toned plaintive singers of Hawail and even a chorus of fifty Maorian singers will take part in the choval events. At an expendl- ture of $1,250,000 the Exposition bas 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 terpsichorean novelty, the “Exposition Tango;” Mr. Harry Lauder will sing the Exposition ballad. The amusement section of the Ex- position, 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 bigh educa- tional value. Imagine, for the purposes of Ilustra- tion, the interest, action and novelty of ten great circuses like Barnum & Bailey's combined into a single “great- est show onvearth” and presented at ten times the cost of the single pro- duction and an ‘dea is gained of the originality of this section. 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 Yellowtone Na- tional park and a similar representa. tion of the Grand Canyon of Arizona, presented by two of the transcon. Unental railways. The Grand Canyon concesston is bullt upon so prodigious a scale that visitors will view the canvases from a standard gauge rall- way coach running on a standard gauge track. A buge working mode! of the Panama canal is so extensive that visitors seated in comfortable the- ater chairs will be carried along the route of the cana! upon a movable platform, and a dictaphone st the arm of each chair will describe euch scene as it comes into view. A novel amuse- ment feature will be provided by work- ing submarine boats of sixty-five tons displacement, which will operate in an artificial lagoon. The Aeroscope, a huge inverted pendulum, operating like a giant seesaw, with a great balancing weight on the short end and a car for passengers at the extremity of Its long- er arm, will raise sightseers more than 325 feet above San Francisco bay, affording an unsurpassed view of the Exposition City and the Golden Gate.

The giant exhibit palaces, the loftiest and most Imposing exposition buildings erer constructed, are in their architecture representative of the finest work of a commission of famous Amer- ican architects, who freely collaborated with distinguisbed members of this pro- fession abroad.
