Robert L. Pope's Address To The Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado. Madam President and members of the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of the State of Colorado and Jurisdiction:I esteem it a high honor done me to have placed upon my shoulders the responsibility of welcoming your splendid body to our fair city. But before proceeding, I wish to publicly express my appreciation for the recognition shown the Negro citizenry of Denver by the state officials which has made possible the holding of this session of the federation in the Chamber of the House of Representatives of the state of Colorado. This is as it should be. It is highly gratifying to have the Governor of this commonwealth to bring you greetings and to remind us that the "Centennial State" has always shown a disposition to keep ajar the door of hope for all its citizens regardless of race or color. Fair ladies, in extending you a cordial welcome to the "Queen City of the Plain," I breathe somewhat of the spirit of the French during the days of Reformation. French reminiscence of the fifteenth century celebrates the name of d i 8 REV. ROBERT L. POPE, B. D., who made the Welcome Address before Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado and Jurisdiction. line de Viguiere, a virtuous and accomplished maiden who so fired the enthusiasm of her contemporaries by her, enchanting form, that the citizens of her native city, Toulouse, obtained the aid of the civil authorities to compel her to appear publicly on the balcony at least twice a week, and as often as she showed herself the streets were so jammed as to endanger human life. We are so very glad to have you here and your presence so inspires our soul that we are not content with the mere extension of a cordial welcome, but we would make your stay among us so very pleasant and congenial that you would be compelled to hold your annual session with us more often. As a body of representative women, I welcome you, knowing that you represent not only the large majority of human beings, but also the finest type of the human race. Woman's superiority has been recognized and acknowledged by the wisest spirits of all ages. Emerson is very clear on this point. "A beautiful woman," says he. "is a practical poet, taming her savage mate, plantling tenderness, hope and eloquence in all she approaches." There is no getting around the truth that back of every great man is a good woman. Washington, Grant and Lincoln are splendid examples, and if we should turn from Emerson to Shakespeare, that master interpreter of human character, we would find additional testimony to the same fact. In all the Shakespearian plays, there are no heroines. The catastrophe of every play is caused always by the folly or fault of a man. And the redemption, if there be any, is always by the wisdom and virtue of a woman. Among the principal figures in these plays, there is only one weak woman, Ophelia in Hamlet. Nor did this conviction originate with England's greatest man of letters, for men who lived many years before him held the same opinion. Thus Chaucer, the father of English Literature, has handed down to us his "Legend of Good Women, but he has given us no "Legend of Good men." Egypt, when she was the foremost nation of the world, gave her "Spirit of Wisdom' the form of a woman, and to the mind of the Greek the most appropriate form of their "Godess of Wisdom' was found in the beautiful statue Athena. Ladies, the belt is yours; we are clay in your hands; make as good article out of us as you can. How fittingly has one of our well-known poets wrote: CHRIST:AN ENDEAVORS IN TRUTH, SPIRIT AND LETTER An Uplifting Move. Chicago, Ill., July 8.—Moved by stirring speeches of men prominent in church and business life of the South, 300 Southern men and women, delegates to the World's Christian Endeavor convention, in session here today, openly acknowledged brotherhood with the Negro race and determined to extend it the right hand of fellowship. "Ah, wasteful woman; she who may On her own sweet self set her price, Knowing that he cannot choose, but pay; How has she cheapen'd Paradise; How given for naught her priceless gift, How spoiled the bread and spill'd the wine, Which spent with due, respective thrift, Had made brutes men, and men divine." Out of this idea is to grow the Southern extension committee of the Christian Endeavor, which the Rev. Ira Landrith of Nashville, Tenn., calls the beginning of the interdenominational union of the Negro race. Again Ladies, it gives me pleasure to bid you welcome not only because you have made our men what they are and we are looking to you to make us what we hope to be, but also because you represent the "Woman's Right" movement, an organization which claims for woman with similar qualifications the same rights that are accorded the man. Doubtless it was at a time similar to these days through which we are now passing that Robt. Burns wrote those suggestive lines: "We are going to get behind the Negro problem," declared Dr. Landrith. "We are going to take the Christian Endeavor work into the Negro churches, organize new societies, extend it, and help millions of blacks to enlightenment. "Europe's eye is fixed on mighty things, The fate of empires and the fall of kings; While quacks of state must each produce his plan, And even children lisp the Rights of Man; Amid this mighty fuss just let me mention, The Rights of Woman merit some attention." We are living an age of Woman's Rights Things which the fore-parents contended far and long to see, you now realized and enjoy. Our men rejoice with you that the yoke of thraldom has been broken from the neck of our women and fiat has gone forth proclaiming mental, social and political freedom for womanhood. How would it cheer the heart of John Stuart Mills, the father of the Woman's Rights movement to look upon this magnificent body exercising the priveleges for which he contended so arduously and unretiringly. He loved your cause better than his own life, and he designated as his most important public service as a member of the English Parliament, a motion to amend the Reform bill so as to provide for Woman Suffrage. Did his work well, passed off the stage, but the women of his native soil have not yet come into the enjoyment of the priveleges for which he contended. But they will come into the enjoyment of them, for his contention was right, and right will ultimately prevail. With yours, our heart wells up with joy, when we look over the states which have made possible woman electors and see that wherever women has been accorded the right of franchise, politics has been purged and the temperance cause has been advanced by leaps and bounds. "God has placed at our door the greatest opportunity for Christian work that ever came to any missionary anywhere. We cannot dodge the Negro question if we would, and we would not be worthy of Him we serve if we would dodge it if we could. We will fight until we are above the criticism of the unselfish; we can ignore the criticism of the indifferent and the untelligent." Negro Not Wanted At Launching. Phoenix, Ariz.—That Governor Hunt had appointed a Negro as one of the delegation of citizens to represent the state at the launching of the battleship Arizona, is the news which has just leaked out and which is the main object of conversation in the hotel lobbies and the cause of intense indignation among southern Democrats. Again, I welcome you, because you not only make good electors, but you bring things to pass. In the state of Alabama, a few years ago, when Negro boys of tender years committed crime, they were sentenced to serve terms in the penitentiary, or "chain-gangs" where through association wite hardened criminals, much older than themselves, they were educated in crime and came out of prison a thousand times worse than they were when they entered. The men of the Race saw this deplorable condition and contented themselves with saying that it was wrong and should be remedied. But it remained for the Colored Women's clubs of the State to remedy this evil and bring to pass the desired condition. I repeat, the women took a hand in this matter and today Alabama has in the burrough of Mount Meigs a splendid reformatory for Negro boys. Tom Turner, a colored porter on the Arizona and New Mexico railroad, running into Lordsburg, New Mexico, the individual who received the invitation from the executive. When Captain Mix, of Nogales, who has charge of the party, discovered that Turner was of the colored race and had already engaged a berth to accompany the delegation, he went up in the air and made a protest to the governor. The latter professed that he was unaware of Turner's race and he hedged with the declaration that the invitation must have been meant for a different Turner. However, it was too late to mend matters, and the porter was told that he must go on a different train. When I was asked to speak to you, I wondered why I should be chosen. Since that time I think I have discovered the reason for my selection. The local clubs have done more for me than they have done for any pastor in this city, and being obligated thus, I am obliged to say nice things about them. For a number of years, th front view of the church, of which I have the honor of being pastor, was miserably marred by the presence of an unsightly building located on a triangular plot at the junction of five streets. Our men said it was a shame that the beauty of this' public building should not be marred in any such way, and right here their activities came to an end. Your local federation, led on by that beautiful and intrepid character, Mrs. Josephine Cassells took up this matter with the Park Board and the City Council, and today we find that the old unsightly building has been torn away and Shorter Chapel fronts a beautiful park. For these and a thousand others reasons, on behalf of the churches of this city, I bid you welcome, thrice welcome. Incidently, Senator Gold water and some of his colleagues pulled off a stunt in the evening by hiring a band to be present at the departure of the special with instructions to play for the benefit of the governor as the train pulled out; "We Don't Care If You Never Come Back." Young Emmett Scott Wins School Prize. Boston, Mass.—In the Boston Evening Transcript of Tuesday, June 22, report is made of the graduation of 113 students of The Phillips Exeter Academy, located at Exeter, N. H., and also of the prize awards for the year. Emmett J. Scott, Jr., of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., is reported in the prize awards for the year, as having won a First Nathaniel Gordon Prize of Twenty Dollars for proficiency in knowledge of the Bible; is also listed as an honor man of the second group, being one of the only five students of his class who is listed for such honors, having maintained a yearly average of Grade B; and also receives Honorable Mention, having received Grade A in certain studies during the whole of the year. In the scholarship awards published by the Academy in The Transcript some weeks ago, young Scott was listed as having won a Phillips' Scholarship award of $100 and a Kingman Scholarship award of $80. He is the only colored student this year attending Phillips Exeter Academy; he last year received his diploma from Tuskegee Institute, having finished the academic course of study and that of the machine shop division. He is being prepared for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Sierra Leone—In the operations carried on in East Africa one thing at any rate is very satisfactory—the loyalty of the natives. All along the coast, in German as well as in British territory, the Swahilis, who are Moslems, are praying for the success of the British arms, and in the Zanzibar Protectorate 2,000 pounds has been subscribed for the British Red Cross Society by men of many races and creeds. Although raids been made on British territory, no missionaries or mission property have received any harm. The work of the Church Missionary Society has continued in spite of hostilities. Bishop Ferguson, writing from Africa concerning the charge that Liberia has been showing German sympathies, and has been guilty of breech of neutrality, condemns the statement as "a base untruth, patched up as an excuse for carrying out wicked plan long since conceived concerning Liberia.

CATLETT, Supt. MEMBER OF NEW EDUCATION BOARD Fountain Peyton to Serve Washington Schools. NATIVE OF OLD DOMINION. Rise of a Former Schoolteacher Who Has Won Prominence In the Legal Profession at the District of Columbia Bar—Educated at Wayland Seminary and Howard University. Washington.—Fountain Peyton, who was appointed member of the new board of education in this city June 19 for a term of three years, was born near Fredericksburg, Va., of slave parents. While his father was sent forward to build breastworks for the Confederates, his mother escaped with her young son, then about one year old, to Washington. The first school attended by the lad was in the soldiers' barracks, on the present site of Farragut square. His first teacher was Miss Lucy A. Barbour. The school was continued there until the erection of the Thaddeus Stevens school, when the pupils were transferred to the new building, where among his instructors was Miss G. L. Fleet, who married Professor Richard T. Greener. Young Peyton finished the seventh grade and then the eighth grade at the summer school, under Miss E. V. Brown, who became the wife of H. P. Montgomery. He next entered Wayland seminary, Dr. G. M. P. King, principal. In three years he completed the normal course and then took one year in the academic department. Aft- A. POUNTAIN PEYTON, EQ. or his graduation in 1861 he taught school in Maryland and at Mountain Gap, Loudoun county, Va. Having an ambition to become a lawyer, he gave up country school teaching, took a civil service examination and was appointed to a position in the Washington city postoffice. He studied law at Howard university, from which he graduated in May, 1880, and was admitted to the supreme court of the District of Columbia, June 19, 1880. As a lawyer two cases exemplify his skill. The first was that of the United States against Edmund Spiller for bigamy. Spiller, who had been a slave, married in the parish of Orleans, Louisiana, when General B. F. Butler was in command. He subsequently came to Washington and married another woman while his first wife was still living. This wife, hearing of this marriage, came on to Washington and had him arrested and indicted for bigamy. Attorney Peyton remembered that in Lincoln's emancipation proclamation the parish of Orleans was excepted, thus making Spiper still a slave in contemplation of law without power to contract a legal marriage without his master's consent. This point raised by Mr. Peyton in defense of his client so dumfounded the district attorney's office that it asked that the case go over one day to consult the authorities. After a learned argument, in which Hugh T. Taggart, who seldom appeared in open court, participated, Chief Justice Bingham, who presided, held first, that the point raised was well taken; second, that Spiper, a slave at the time of his alleged marriage, had not procured his master's consent; third, that the first marriage was void; fourth, that the second marriage was legal; hence, there being no bigamy, directed the jury to acquit the prisoner. The second case was that of Shorty Meirose, who was indicted for highway robbery, for robbing a man sleeping on his own doorstep at 2 o'clock in the morning. Two witnesses for the government testified that they, from a second story window of the building in which they were sitting, saw the prisoner creep into the front gate of the first yard, "go through" the sleeping man's pockets, taking his watch and money. The house in which they were situated was a considerable distance from the location of the alleged crime. On cross examination they were asked how they could at that hour of the morning see so distinctly and at that distance. They replied that the moon was shining as bright as day and they could have seen a block. Mr. Peyton sprung Jayne's almanac on them and showed that on that particular day and date the moon did not rise until 5:30 a. m. The jury promptly acquitted the defendant.

Ellensburg, Wash., June 8, 1915. Mr. W. B. Townsend. Having heard that you were in Denver, I thought I would drop you a line. This is a great country, undeveloped, and we need some real progressive Negroes to take up the vacant lands and get rich. There are great opportunities in this valley for everyone. I would like for you to try and get ten good (you know what I mean by "good") men with some money, that is sufficient to run them one year, and I will assure you that they will become independent. We have out here a great number of Negroes, but it's the wrong kind, mostly of that drifting class. We want a different class of Negroes here to pave the way for the great stand that our great friend in America stood for, Industrial Christianity, Bishop Turner. Be sure, judge, to let me hear from you. Will give you more facts later. As ever, yours most truly. Howard Smith Performs Noble Deed. Loward Smith of Camden, N. J., at the risk of his own life, recently dived overboard and saved the life of a horse by releasing the animal from a wagon to which it was attached. Smith is employed by Charles L. Adkins, a contracting teamster of 434 Division street, Camden. He went to the Spruce street wharf with a dump cart, which was backed to the water's edge, and before he could block the wheel of the vehicle it went overboard, taking the horse with it. Losing no time, Smith dived overboard and finally released the traces, and horse and master arose to the surface. Smith managed to climb back on the wharf, while the horse floundered about on the surface of the water, and after some difficulty the animal was landed on the wharf. Thus again a member of our race in New Jersey performs a noble deed. Needs of the Wilberforce University. As an institution of higher learning for our people Wilberforce university, in Ohio, is living up to the ideals of its founders and supporters. The progress of the school under the leadership of Dr. William S. Scarborough the past few years has been wonderful. The institution is in need of an endowment of at least $300,000. This amount is not large in comparison to the amount of endowment held by some of the great institutions of learning in our country. No doubt the trustees, with the president, will bend their energies in this direction during the vacation period this year.

The sixteenth annual meeting of the National Medical association will be held in Chicago from Aug. 24 to 26 inclusive. The local committee of arrangements, headed by Dr. U. G. Dalley, is making extensive preparations for entertaining the members of the association. The usual number of papers, embracing every phase of medicine, surgery, dentistry and pharmacy, will be given a prominent place on the program, as in former years, but the outstanding feature of this convention will be the large number of clinics which will be held during the session. Chicago has unusual facilities for clinical demonstrations of all kinds, and the local committee has been alive to the opportunities that may be seized for the benefit of visiting doctors. The larger portion of the surgical clinics will be held at Cook County hospital, which has been recently completed. Others will be held at the St. Luke's hospital and Provident hospital. Arrangements have also been made for special clinics covering diseases of the eye, ear, nose, throat, children's diseases and women's diseases. Men who are located in the more remote sections of the country will witness here operations and demonstrations that they have seldom if ever been permitted to witness before, and the local committee and the officers of the association are particularly anxious that the rural general practitioner shall avail himself of the opportunity to be present at Chicago for these wonderful demonstrations of medical, surgical and dental research and progress. The headquarters of the local committee will be in the Y; M. C. A. building, and some of the sessions will be held there. There will, as usual, be public meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, and the session will close on Thursday evening. Aug. 26, with a banquet. Some of the more prominent men connected with the association will perform many difficult and rare operations, and the association as a whole will be invited to clinics conducted by Murphy, Schrader and Ochsner. These men stand at the forefront of surgical progress, and to be able to witness operations performed by them and to observe the technic that they have perfected will be of invaluable assistance to every one who visits these clinics. Special rates will prevail on all the roads entering Chicago. Many from all sections of the country have already indicated their intention of being present. Those who are unacquainted with the city and expect to be there should communicate with the chairman of the local committee, Dr. U. G. Dalley, 5 East Thirty-sixth place, Chicago. Lesson II.—Third Quarter, For July 11, 1915. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, I Kings i, 28-40. Memory Verses, 39, 40—Golden Text, I Chron. xxviii, 9—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. To get the connection let us look at the important events since last lesson. After David's return to his throne there was a rebellion under a wicked man named Sheba, the son of Bichri, but he was overthrown and slain, and a city was saved through the influence of a wise woman who may be ranked with the wise woman of Tekoa and with Jael, the wife of Heber (II Sam. xx, 1, 10, 22). In II Sam. xxii we have one of David's great songs of deliverance, which is repeated in full in Ps. xviii. In II Sam. xxiii we have some of David's last words, which we may perhaps find space to consider in connection with the record of his death in today's lesson. But there are some things which we must notice in II Sam. xxiv, such as the story of the threshing floor of Araunah, the Jebusite, over which the Lord stayed the hand of the destroying angel, saying, "It is enough," and which David bought for fifty shekels of silver and the whole place or hill for 600 shekels of gold (II Sam. xxiv, 16, 24; I Chron. xxi, 22-25). This hill was the identical mount Moriah on which Abraham offered up Isaac and received him back from the dead in a figure, and on this hill Solomon built the temple which David desired to build, but was not permitted to, but God gave him the plans of it and allowed him to prepare abundantly for it. See carefully these passages, I Chron. xxviii, 11, 12, 19; H Chron. lil, 1. In I Kings il, 1-4, we have some of the last words of David, with a few of his words to Solomon, but much more fully in I Chron. xxviii and xxix, with his wonderful prayer in xxix, 10-19, which we found great pleasure in memorizing in the Bible classes not long ago. Oh, for a lesson on some of these portions teeming with the riches of His grace and glory instead of the less restful portions such as the lesson of today! But let us notice before looking at this lesson that Moriah and the threshing floor of Araunah or Ornan, the same hill, are strongly suggestive of the great atonement of the Lord Jesus, so that the foundation of the temple was really the atonement. So also in the tabernacle of Moses every board stood on the silver which was paid as a ransom for their souls. The only foundation for an individual or for the church is the finished work of the Lord Jesus. In our lesson today David is said to be old, though he was only seventy (II Sam. v, 4; I Kings ii, 10, 11). He is said to have died in a good old age, full of days, riches and honor (I Chron. xxix, 28). Trouble seems to have followed him all the way, and now, at the very end, Adonijah, his fourth son, whom he had never displeased by even saying "Why hast thou done so?" (II Sam. iii, 25; I Kings 1, 6). seeks the throne and has himself proclaimed king. This stirred Nathan the prophet, and he and Bathsheba, the mother of Solomon, appealed to David, with the result that Solomon was caused to ride upon King David's mule and was anointed king instead of his father. This caused great rejoicing, so that the earth rent with sound thereof and David himself said, "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who hath given one to sit on my throne this day, mine eyes even seeing it" (verses 38, 40, 48). "Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David, his father, and prospered, and all Israel observed him" (I Chron. xxix, 23). No throne on earth was ever called the throne of the Lord except the throne at Jerusalem, and we are fast approaching the time when Jerusalem shall again be the throne of the Lord and all nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem (Jer. iii, 17). The Lord had told David before Solomon was born that he should be his successor and sit on his throne (I Chron. xxii, 7-9), and so it came to pass, for in some way or other every purpose of the Lord shall be performed (Jer. ii, 29). I have in mind always in this connection Ps. xxxiii, 10, 11; Isa. xiv, 24, and find great rest in such assurances. If the affections of all true believers were as fully set upon the building of the church and the bringing back of the king to set up His kingdom and we were as ready to prepare with all our might, as was David, for the temple (I Chron. xxi, 2, 3), how the mission treasuries would overflow with funds to help give the gospel to every creature, and what a great company would be heard saying, "Here am I; send me!" (Isa. vi, 8). We need to remember that God tries the heart and has pleasure in uprightness and that in His hand are power and might and that all things come of Him (I Chron. xxi, 12, 14, 17). In the last words of David in II. Sam xxiii, 1-5, he was filled with thoughts of all that God had done for him in taking him from his flocks to be king over Israel, and how all that he had written had been given to him by the Holy Spirit. He was conscious of his failures, but rejoiced in the faithfulness of God, and in the everlasting covenant ordered in all things and sure. He ever looked onward to the Christ who would sit upon His throne and rule righteously and to the morning when He would come for larael's redemption. Abolished by the United States Supreme Court. UPHOLDS WAR AMENDMENT. State Laws Basing Right of Persons to Vote on Right of Their Ancestors to Vote Before Enactment of Fifteenth Amendment Are Illegal, Says Chief Justice White. Washington.—Chief Justice White in handing down an opinion for the United States supreme court on Monday, June 21, dealt a deathblow to the "grandfather clause," which is effective in a number of southern states in disfranchising the colored citizens. The court sustained in its opinion in the Oklahoma and Maryland cases the fifteenth amendment, prohibiting discrimination against colored people, and the Oklahoma and Maryland laws barring them from the polls because their ancestors could not vote prior to Jan. 1, 1886, were declared void by the decision. The Oklahoma law was modeled after the North Carolina and Mississippi laws which disfranchise many thousands of colored men who are entitled to the elective franchise. The opinion of Chief Justice White declares that state laws basing the right of persons to vote on the right of their ancestors to vote before the fifteenth amendment was passed are illegal, unconstitutional and inoperative. The court held that states may prescribe literacy and property qualification tests for voters, but they must not be used as a subterfuge, as in Oklahoma and Maryland, to prevent the Negro from voting. Frank J. Gulinn and J. J. Beal, Oklahoma election officers, were convicted of preventing Negroes from voting in the 1910 congressional election and sentenced to imprisonment for a year and to pay a fine of $100. They appealed to the appellate court at St. Louis, which passed the case along to the supreme court of the United States without trying it. The constitution of Oklahoma, upon which that territory was admitted to the Union as a state, gave something very like manhood suffrage. But prior to the elections of 1910 an amendment was adopted severely restricting the franchise. The amendment reads in part as follows: "No person shall be registered as an elector of this state or be allowed to vote in any election herein unless he be able to read and write any section of the constitution of the state of Oklahoma; but no person who was on Jan. 1, 1866, or at any time prior thereto, entitled to vote under any form of government, or who at that time resided in some foreign nation, and no linear descendant of such person, shall be denied the right to register and vote because of his inability to so read and write sections of such constitution." The government insisted that the "real question involved is the repugnancy of the standard which the amendment makes, based upon the conditions existing on Jan. 1, 1806, because on its face and inherently considering the substance of things that standard is a mere denial of the restrictions imposed by the prohibitions of the Fifteenth amendment and by necessary result recreates and perpetuates the very conditions which the amendment was intended to destroy." Chief Justice White says: "There seems no escape from the conclusion that to hold that there was even possibility for dispute on the subject would be but to declare that the Fifteenth amendment not only had not the self executing power which it has been recognized to have from the beginning, but that its provisions were wholly inoperative because susceptible of being rendered inapplicable by mere forms of expression embodying no exercise of judgment and resting upon no discernible reason other than the purpose to disregard the prohibitions of the amendment by creating a standard of voting which on its face was in substance but a revitalization of the conditions which, when they prevailed in the past, had been destroyed by the self operative force of the amendment. "We are unable to discover how, unless the prohibition of the Fifteenth amendment were considered, the slightest reason was afforded for basing the classification upon a period of time prior to the Fifteenth amendment. Certainly it cannot be said that there was any peculiar necromancy in the time named which engendered attributes affecting the qualification to vote which would not exist at another and different period unless the Fifteenth amendment were in view." The court held that Oklahoma had not meant to provide a literacy test for its voters if the restriction as to those qualified to vote in 1806 was illegal, and hence struck down that test, although stating that, standing alone, such a test is constitutional. The reading test was stricken out along with the grandfather clause. Chief Justice White said the plain meaning of the Oklahoma constitution was that the reading test should not be used to disqualify lineal descendants of voters prior to 1806. As this would be accomplished in many cases by continuing the reading test without the offensive exemptions, the whole provision was killed.

Last Tuesday evening at Shorter Chapel, a large and appreciative audience evidenced Denver's approval of a high class musical. The participants were some of our best musical talent, young people who have given their time and energy to studying music with the idea of becoming artists in their several branches. How well they have succeeded was demonstrated by the masterly manner in which they rendered the various numbers. Mrs. Hudson, who has been studying in old Mexico, rendered two selections of Spanish type on the piano. Mrs. Hudson was compelled to respond to encores. The soprano soloists were Misses Jessie Andrews and Jennie Mae Hicks. Miss Andrews possesses a rich soprano voice with wonderful possibilities. Miss Hicks is of the Jennie Lind style, possessing a sympathetic quality. Mrs. Lillian Hawkins-Jones, our favorite contralto, sang in her usual captivating manner and Mr. Geo. Morrison, who it is always a delight to hear, held his audience spell-bound as he rendered Raff's Cayatina. It was Denver's first opportunity to hear Mr. Nollie Smith as a solist. Mr. Smith possesses a baritone voice and he sang Petries' "Out Where the Billows Roll High" in a pleasing manner. The audience was reluctant about leaving when the last number on the program was rendered and the young artists received many well deserved compliments. Hand-painted china store, 2620 Welton street.

WILLIS BELIEVES IN HUMAN RIGHTS Ohio's Chief Executive Praises Decision in "Grandfather Clause" Case. Columbus, O.—Governor Frank B. Willis of this state, who proved his strong interest in the race by causing to be revoked the state censor's permit given to the photo play "The Nigger" to show in Ohio and his declaration that another play of the kind, but far more damaging to our race should not be produced in Ohio has again won the plaudits of the colored people in this city and state by his splendid indorsement of the federal supreme court's decision in the Oklahoma case. So far he is the only state executive who has expressed himself respecting that decision. When the decision was rendered he promptly gave public utterance to the following: "This decision of the United States supreme court against the 'grandfather' clause in the laws of Oklahoma and in the Maryland case is one of the most important and farreaching in years. It is a vindication of the principle that in this country a citizen's worth is to be measured by his own merit and not by the qualifications of his grandfather. "The principle of the 'grandfather' clause was un-American, unfair and altogether out of harmony with our institutions. The law should encourage every citizen without regard to race or color to improve his own condition, not dampen and kill his energy and ambition by applying a rule of recognition as arbitrary and indefensible as ever stained the pages of the history of hereditary feudalism in the dark ages. "The fifteenth amendment meant what it said when it proclaimed that the right to vote should not be denied on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. This amendment does not prohibit a fair educational qualification applicable to all races alike, but it does prohibit an unfair discrimination between races. The decision of the supreme court will be hailed with satisfaction by every person who believes in a fair chance for all." Public Schools at Indianapolis, Ind. Fifty-one pupils were graduated from school No. 17 and nineteen from school No. 26 in Indianapolis, Ind., at the graduation exercises recently. The above named are the largest schools in Indianapolis. The Rev. E. A. Clark, minister of Allen Chapel church, made the address to the graduates of school No. 17, and George W. Cable was the speaker at school No. 26. LEADER AMONG THE METHODISTS POPULAR WITH THE MASSES Minister at Waters A. M. E.

He is well trained, coming from Atlanta university, Atlanta, Ga., and then from Gammon Theological seminary, Atlanta. His first work was done in Atlanta, where he made many friends. He is popular with the masses. Leaving Atlanta, he served in Norfolk and Portsmouth, Va., the leading charges in the Virginia conference. Thirteen years ago he was transferred to the Baltimore conference, with headquarters in this city. He served Bethel church for five years and served at Trinity church for five years. Three years ago he was sent to Waters A. M. E. church, where he is serving now, and had the pleasure of entertaining the eighty-eighth session of the Baltimore conference. Those who had been in the conference for years declare it was the finest entertainment that had ever been accorded the conference in its history. Not only is Dr. Gaines a good preacher and pastor, but he is a strong advocate for his race, taking advantage of every opportunity to present the claims of his people. He is a good writer and orator. He ranks in ability with such men as the late Bishops Grant, Arnett and Derrick and W. J. Gaines, Handy and Salter. Just at this time in the history of the race men of such keen foresight are needed, and the African Methodist church will recognize this need in the promotion of the Rev. Dr. A. L. Gaines. In the cause of education no man has been more liberal in contributions to the schools. He has worked hard for Wilberforce university, Kittrell college and Morris Brown university. Nor has he overlooked Allen university, Paul Quinn college and other institutions of his denomination. Dr. Gaines is an able advocate of the cause of missions, and this has been shown from each charge he has held by the liberal contributions to the missionary department. Whenever the race has made a call he has responded and can be approached by his people in every condition and stage of life. His home is open to his people. He has a congenial wife, who is ever ready to render service. Texas Clubwomen Meet in Houston.

Since Bod has in his wisdom seen fit to call to a greater service our class mate, Sister Hattle Manier. Be it resolved that we as a church and Sunday School express our deepest sympathy to the family, feeling that we too share the loss of her sweet spirit of helpfulness in our Sunday School and church, as a member of class No. 8. We pray God's sweetest benediction on the family, and in memory of her we scribe these lines: Death has been here and gone, a classmate from our side, just in the morning of her youth; as young as we she died; but now she run her mortal race and never can return.

Phone Main 7702 BUSINESS MEN PLAN BIG MEET League Convention In Boston Assured of Success. WILL SHOW RACE THRIFT. In Every Line of Endeavor Negroes Have Made Splendid Progress in Fifteen Years of National Negro Business League's History—Many Bodies Will Assemble in August. The fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the National Negro Business league will be celebrated at Boston on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Aug. 18, 19 and 20, 1915. The Boston local Negro Business league, as well as the local Negro Business League of Cambridge, is hard at work perfecting arrangements for the reception and entertainment of the delegates who are planning to be present. Aside from the regular business sessions of the league, the social side of the convention will not be neglected. A guarantee fund has already been secured for the purpose of financing every feature of the entertainment and reception of the delegates. Historic Boston, with its many traditions intimately connected with the life and history of the Negro people, and particularly with the movement which led to their freedom and enfranchisement, is a mecca toward which our race should from time to time turn. It was in Boston that the first meeting of the league was held Aug. 23 and 24, 1900, and in holding the meeting there this year it will fittingly celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the league, afford an opportunity for "taking stock"—an inventory, as it were—of racial progress and development since the organization of the league, and, fortified by the accumulated knowledge and experiences of these years, the business men and women of the race may face the future with greater inspiration and a firmer grasp of the complex problems of modern business. In 1900, when the National Negro Business league was organized, there were about 20,000 Negro business enterprises; now there are 45,000. In 1900 there were two Negro banks; now there are 51. In 1900 Negroes were running 250 drug stores; now they have 695. In 1900 there were 450 undertaking businesses operated by Negroes; now there are about 1,000. In 1900 there were 149 Negro merchants engaged in wholesale business; now there are 240. In 1900, fifteen years ago, there were 10,000 Negro retail merchants; now there are 25,000. In the fifteen years since the National Negro Business league was organized farm property owned by Negroes has made a remarkable increase.

P DEDICATED TO MRS. POPE-TURN-BO-MALONE. Some folks write testimonies Having no regards to fact, While some exaggerate it Others' words are not exact. Some will falsify their statements, Others write just to deceive, By a thousand varied arguments, So their story none believes. But it shall be my object Just to state it as it is, And let the world know truly All about the "Poro" biz. I do not mean to tell it all, (For half I do not know). But every word I tell you You will truly find it so. Indeed, I've taken washing, sir, And ironing, to be sure; I have served as cook and house- maid, And have done some nursing, too. The reason why I did it Was because I didn't know The higher possibilities For agents of "Poro." I found out what the cost would be To enter in the work. I paid the stipulated price With not a moment's shirk. And now today, I'm glad to say With all my soul and main, "I count the cost as nothing lost, But everything to gain." I've done five hundred heads or more Since first I did begin— There's a constant rapping at my door Of people coming in To have me wash and dress their hair; Because these ladies know, (Of all the rest), I use the best, The world's far-famed "Poro." I've had some ladies come to me With hair so very thin— Each strand a standing to itself And arguing with the win'; But after two or three months' time I'm glad to let you know, They all join in the chorus Singing praises to "Poro." I can call them by the hundreds, I can name them by the score; Everyone of whom are pleased With using the "Poro." It makes their hair so glossy, It makes the crooked straight; It makes the hair all flourish, And puts it up to date. Your husband will not know you, And neither will your beau— You'll take your own self by surprise By using "Pope-Turnbo Poro." So if you want your hair improved Or would you make it grow There's no remedy on earth Like "Pope-Turnbo's Poro." —Foulkes. The ELKS; Geo.
