Special dressing rooms attach the living rooms. Everything was done with a lavish hand. Even when the bishop came in possession the work kept up. He purchased when in Italy marble for the mantle in his great room, paying $500 for it. The mantle was ordered made in that country.

Goldsmith, in his very touching poem entitled "The Deserted Villiage," when speaking of the person, said that those who came to scoff at him remained to pray. The thought and expression apply very well to Madam C. J. Walker. Many excellent things have been said of her, so many that persons living in other cities, persons that have no opportunity to meet her, have doubts about what she does and about her weath. In fact, there are skeptics right here in Indianapolis. They think she is overrated; that her weatlh is exaggerated. However, it has dawned on the better part of us here that the madam is all that she is advertised to be.
As a representative of the Freeman, it became my delightful duty to ask the madam many questions. I could not have done so had I been of any other profession. She winced a bit, but the story of the real Madam Walker was my quest and little by little it came out. As to her charity, I saw evidences of this side during the interview. Two, perhaps three, persons applied for assistance and were not refused. One fellow had nearly enough money to go to Louisville. He asked for the rest of the necessary amount. She was repeatedly called to the telephone to discuss matters of the kind.
Through these discussions and investigations to ascertain those worthy of help she showed splendid tact and judgment. It was good to see a colored woman standing on that philanthropic eminence, classing with Helen Gould, John Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie, at least, as to disposition and intent. And, indeed, her charities are not small, nor do they need to be. A woman that can have a gold leaf Victrola made to order to the tune of $500 has some more money somewhere. This Victrola is the only one of the kind in Indianapolis and was made to match her gold room furniture.
The madam seems to simply preside over her money. After a charity, if one may so call it, is considered worthy, the faithful secretary ushers in with the check book—everything ready but the signature. She signs, and the secretary glides noiselessly out again, reminding one of those highly efficient servants of the Orient, who are their master's other self—the personification of devotion and discretion. The madam is nowise disturbed by this little reduction of her bank account. The conversation picks up promptly at the dropping point. She should worry when she owns a half dozen homes and has other large possessions.
She has the gift and spirit for the charity work. She takes great stock in the theory that the Lord loves the cheerful giver: She gives bountitully and cheerfully. She sets aside one per cent of her income to be given away. And at this seemingly small percentage she has now a fund of $600 for this winter collected within the past year. Coal, food, clothing are being dispensed right and left by the angel of mercy.
Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, of Cambridge, Mass., is conducting a school at Sedalia, N. C. Madam Walker has obligated herself to pay one teacher $200, the pay for the term. At Tuskegee she gives five pupils $50 each, yearly. One of these is an African. One is a young man above 20, who recently discovered that he ought to have some education. Like a lady bountiful, she sends turkeys to the charitable institutions on Thanksgiving day and on Xmas. The Alpha Home and the Orphans's home were remembered by her. Then there's St. Louis, where she has lived. Institutions and friends there are share-holders in her bounty.
Not long since she purchased Bishop Derrick's home at Flushing, L. I., New York. It was during her visit to Boston when the B. M. C. met there last summer that her attention was called to the home of the late Bishop Derrick. She had about decided to give up Indianapolis as a place of residence. While in company with friends in New York, among them were several noted persons, the moving subject was discussed. Naturally enough, the New York folk felt that after New York came the end of the world. They told the madam that all she had to do was to lay eyes on Bishop Derrick's estate. They were satisfied that it was what she wanted. Among this group were Mr. and Mrs. James Europe, Mr. Fred Moore, editor of the New York Age and Mr. Phil Peyton. Richard B. Harrison, the well known reader, was among those who accompanied her to the Derrick homestead.
The property is in charge of the bishop's widow, who kindly showed the visitors through the house and the surroundings. It proved at once ideal. It is an aristocrat of houses, built by a wealthy white man who wished elegance
and spaciousness. The rooms, the madame says, are large and grand, reflecting the personality of the builder. There is no stinted or starved appearance about anything. Special dressing rooms attach the living rooms. Everything was done with a lavish hand. Even when the bishop came in possession the work kept up. He purchased when in Italy marble for the mantle in his great room, paying $500 for it. The mantle was ordered made in that country.
The house is of four floors, including the basement, with about twenty rooms. A spiral or winding stair gracefully ascends from bottom to top, ending in the tower, which was lighted up when he was in the city. She had longed for a place where there were shrubbery, trees—a bit of nature, instead of that close two-by-four existence that city people find so necessary to put up with. She wanted a breathing spot just as our parks are breathing places for the people of hot, fetid cities in the summer. She is proud of the grand trees, especially the $5,000 horse chesnut which the bishop refused to sell. In this he reminds us of the Arab who flung back the purse of gold offered for his Arabian steed. He refused to part with his tree for that tempting sum of money. He was in for art and nature himself. He had no adornments to sell or give away. Grand old Bishop Derrick! I am afraid he was not known as he really was. Perhaps there is no other instance in the history of our race of a Negro having his mantle made abroad. The ceilings of the house are frescoed, also reflecting the taste of the owner. The balustrade of the steps are of crystal pebbles. The fountain is the same, making a most beautiful effect.
As classic and ideal as the spot is it will be further improved by Madam Walker. The house will be considerably changed; stucco outside walls and a stone fountain will be the main alterations. She will build a garage for three automobiles and a stable for two horses. She will spend much of her leisure time in the saddle. The heating apparatus will be built on the outside of the house, above which will be the green house.
Madam Walker believes in taking time by the forelock. She has already begun to cast about for furniture that will become the splendid house of the very spacious rooms. In doing this she came across a mahogany bed-room set of twelve pieces, metal trimmed, in New York. It is a importation from France, costing $1,500. If one is inclined to doubt this story it can be verified by the fact that at her Indianapolis home, adjoining the room where I had this interview is a massive parlor suite of teak elaborately carved, done in Japan. It is peculiar and distinct standing for the last word in skill in technique. These beautiful pieces were bought in Panama by the madam when on her recent visit there. They were sent there to be sold to the, tourists, just as many other rare and costly thing are sent there. This set of furniture stood her $800.
In her New York home the madame will have what she calls the cathedral suite for dining room, upholstered in silk tapestry; made to order, costing $2,200. In the room of the Indianapolis home referred to above, bear in mind, is yet a costly ebony chair, a Steinway grand piano and a splendid bookcase of choice volumes.
But it is the gold room of the Indianapolis home of which I wish to speak as bearing witness to the cost of the furniture of the New York home. I have mentioned the
$500 gold leaf Victrola. Besides this, there is a $300 cabinet, several chairs of gold and silk tapestry, a table, oriental rug, $150 draperies, oil paintings and so forth, making this one room a $2,500 proposition, at least.
The guest chamber of the New York home will have furniture of cream mahogany with an English coat of arms. costing $1,000. In the hall of the Indianapolis home is a $500 Grand-father clock, Westminster chimes, reproducing the famous bells of Westminster Abbey, London, England. Tones of unspeakable richness peals forth every quarter of an hour, forcing an expression of joy and delight on the countenance of the most woebegone as if the chimes were the foundation of music and happiness. Such tones! Human, apparently, and more semingly, in their call. Sweet as the mother's call, And the children's answering back.
Over my head hung a chandelier of alabaster marble, hand carved, imported, $135, a thing of beauty and a joy for ever.
The madam has purchased a silver dinner set of Julius C. Walk, one of the leading jewelers, costing $260. In her dining room are massive beaten silver pieces which she brought home from Boston. Her silver punch service is notable. Her cabinets groan with the highest grade china and cut glass. A great Grecian vase adorned the hall, costing $60. There was an umbrella stand costing $35. Around about yet, seen and unseen, were evidences of wealth, taste and refinement. When the madame gets in her new home she will have practically a country home and a city home in New York. Her present home in that city is occupied by her daughter, Mrs. Lelia Robinson, belonging to her to all intent and purposes. This home, says

Elks Join in and Make Successful Meeting. Delegates Honored by Entertainments. W. H. Bess, Re-elected.
The Knights of Pythias Grand Lodge which convened last Wednesday at Elks' Hall, 2049 Champa Street, was one of the largest and best grand meetings which has been held in this city in the past eight years. More complete harmony, good feelings and constructive work leading to the real benefit of the order, was witnessed at this session than at any session in the past five years. The men in general who seemed to fully realize their duties and responsibilities and the problems facing them, were willing to shoulder them and do their very best
the madame, is as elaborately furnished as her Indianapolis home. This property is 108 at West 136th street. On Keystone avenue, this city, she has a six-room bungalow, built this summer with all the modern improvements. She has a double house on Cornelius and a cottage on Oakland avenue. On Camp street she has a modern duplex. She owns a bungalow in Los Angeles, Cal. She owes nothing on these properties, paying for them as they were being improved. These, together with the homes described, including her furniture which in value represent several homes, make for the fortune of this, the most remarkable colored woman that the race has produced.
As a child she craved for the beautiful. She had an inordinate desire to move among the things of culture and refinement. A child of destiny she was, and is, realizing her every hope. Her life has expanded; she has grown in all ways, even in physical beauty.
Her gift to the Y. M. C. A. of this city is a historic incident. She patronizes art, knowing intuitively what to do to encourage those whose abilities lay along art lines. She has patronized Scott, the painter, and John Hardrich, painter. In her home are several choice pictures done by the torner artist. At the Y. M. C. A. is a superb lifesize picture of George L. Knox, president of the association, presented by her. In the A. M. E. church of this city is a splendid likeness of Rev. Morris Lewis. She was the donor. Her influences reaches out like the limbs of a banyan tree, encompassing greatly. Her name has become an open sesame, the hope of the poor and destitute. In the state of Mississippi she assisted in securing the pardon of a colored man who had been imprisoned for a number of years.
Thus the country over is feeling the impress of her

in solving them in the most satisfactory manner. The special changes come in the Endowment Department when the expenses of Board were cut down. It was easily shown and plainly pointed out that a general reduction in unnecessary offices of the grand lodge. The General Reception and memorial which occured Wednesday night at Shorter was one social event attended with such impressive memories of the departed brethern that everyone present could not help (Continued on page 3.)
work. Thus while reaping grandly for herself she scatters forth, with lavish hand, a part of her goods. Her tenement houses a beautiful soul In her earthly aspirations she wishes those things which comport with fine natures. In keeping with the desire, which makes for ideality, she will have the handsomest colored home in America.
As we, Denver people know Madam Walker, her life and efforts have spelled sacrifice and service with a large 'S". She has shown that no person can properly develop to any largeness of life, while his or her mind is focused upon self. She must get out of self or she cannot grow. For her to have thought constantly of her own interests, her own work. her own plans, her own welfare would have been to paralyze her growth. Selfish attitude was unable to touch her noble and divine impulses, and she looked up and out and not down and in. This very action developed a warmth of heart, a tenderness, a kindness, a sympathetic nature, which love itself is only capable of making such worthy earthly qualities human in every respect. She knew without these men and women became brutes, no matter how gorgeous our apparel or how palatial or beautiful our homes or surroundings. Energy is an animal until his sympathies and love for his fellowmen are armed. So she soon found the power and joy of real happiness by doing for others in helping make communities better, not only in America but in Africa, by entering into the world's service for humanity blessing lives individually and collectively and thus receiving and discharging the duties and responsibilities of a true education in life. She stole away from herself; she became interested in others; she loved them, helped them and became a throbbing vein of service in life instead of a cold, barren bloodless icicle. Real happiness has been the joy and consequence. Let all the world emulate her.

The visit of Mrs. W. 5S. Layten,
president of the Women's National
Baptist Convention, was an event of
surpassing interest to the women of
Zion and the community, to whom
were delivered two masterly address-
es by this splendid leader of women’s
work last Sunday. Mrs. Layten is a
woman of marvelous personality and
matchless eloquence, who has for
many years presided over the great-
est convention of Negro women in the
world, Her address from the rostrum
last Sunday morning was a master-
piece, showing that the spirit of the
great women of the Bible is yet living
in the breasts of countless women of
the race today. She left Monday
morning for engagements in Colorado
Springs, thence on to the coast.
The ladies of the church tendered
te Mrs. Layten a beautiful reception
last Saturday afternoon at the church,
which, though hastily arranged, and
in spite of ugly weather, was attend-
ed by a number of the ladies who
were anxious to hear their deserving
Jeader. Mrs. Layten was accompan-
ied by her daughter.
‘The Williams’ concert at the Audi-
torium will be given Monday evening.
‘The sale of tickets indicates a great
audience, and there is no doubt that
the concert will be the best yet en-
joyed by Denver's citizens. Tickets
engaged had best be gotten at once,
as everything will be put on sale at
the Auditorium box office Monday.
‘The Williams colored singers are
to be presented for the fourth time
in Denver by the Zion Baptist church
at the Auditorium Monday evening at
eight o'clock. This octette of maryel-
ously gifted vocal artists is without
question the greatest organization of
the kind in the world. During the
Jast ten years they have sung practi-
cally all over the civilized world.
They are as favorably known in
Europe as in America, where they
met the same enthusiastic response
they are enjoying in their home conn-
try today. Only one such tenor as
Mr. Johnson is known by any gener-
ation. The bass of Mr. Crabbe places
him in the class of the world’s great
singers. These two wonderful men
are supported by a company the work
of which can only be appreciated af-
ter they have been heard again and
again. The indications are that an
overwhelming audience will _ greet
them on this tour. Engaged tickets
must be purchased at once, as every-
thing will be placed on sale at the

favored us with “Just. for Today,”
while Mrs. Rose sang the solo to the
chorus “The Lord Hath Done Great
Things.” The literary features for
the evening program were all one
could desire, Mr. 0. T. Jackson, At-
torney A. W. Lewis and Miss Samira
Harris were extraordinarily strong in
the presentation of their respective
parts. Mr. Geo. Morrison, Master At-
well Rose, violinists, and Miss Fannie
May Adams of Marshall, Texas, pian-
ist, were par excellent. Our organist,
‘Mr. Spratlin, was abnormal in his exe-
cution. Mrs, M. E, Morrison as usual
played well her part with the trom-
bone. Mrs. Lillian Jones, in her se-
lection “The Angelic Salutation,” in-
toxicated the audience with enthust-
asm and inspiration.’ The choir was
at its best in the rendition of the pe-
cullar, difficult selections “O Lord, We
Pray Thee” and “Why Seek Ye the
Living Among the Dead.”
Now, once more, let everybody pull

At each of the three previous visits of this world famous company the overwhelming and enthusiastic response indicated that Benner considers the coming of the Williams' Singers the principal musical event of the season. Indeed, the last concert which was given at the city's great auditorium was the only occasion on which the large numbers who desired to hear them could find accommodations. There is no question that their popularity is still growing and the early advance sale of tickets already indicates that the audience will fill the house.

(Continued from page 1.) think of the one without meditating upon the other. The Knights want to publicly thank our mayor, Dr. W. H. Sharpley, who personally came and welcomed the visiting Sir Knights, friends and relatives to our city. This marked recognition from Denver's busy Mayor to the Sir Knights will not soon forget. It was appreciated. The program of the evening was, as follows: Master of Ceremonies, Dr. S. A. Huff; Invocation; Grand Prelate, C. W. Young; Music—Duet, Misses Hicks and Andrews; Welcome address—Mayor Wm. H. Sharpley; Music—Shorter Choir Quartet; Response to Welcome Address—Dr. T. E. McClain; Instrumental Solo—Miss Vera Ward; Address—Miss Lydia Clark, Progress Court; Music Shorter Choir; Response W. H. Bess, Grand Chancellor; Violin Solo—Prof. Geo. Morrison; Memorial Address—W. B. Townsend, Grand Attorney. Benedition—Rev. Jas. Washington.
The Elks in fittingly and stylishly manner made a most astounding impression upon the order and public in general when in a body of welldressed men, in an orderly conducted march, they escorted the two Denver lodges and visiting Sir Knights to the church and into the church. Their august presence can never be forgotten, as they sang "Auld Lang Syne" to tune of "God Bless Our Friendly Band." Nor did the Knights forget to thank them, together with all the rest of the Denver people, who assisted in making this grand session such a great success.
As a further feature of the entertainment planned was the grand military march and reception at East Turner hall Thursday, when and where everybody thoroughly enjoyed himself and herself. On Friday the most important committees reported and it was on this day the threshing out and grinding of the business measures came. The election of officers did not have the snap, ginger and interest this time as formerly, as most of the delegates were satisfied with the present regime. The election resulted as follows: Grand Chancellor, W. H. Bess, Pleasant Home No. 6, Colorado Springs; Grand Vice Chancellor, P. A. Watkins, Golden Eagle No. 1, Walsenburg; Grand Medical Register, Dr. R. S. Grant, Colorado Springs; G. Master of Exchequer, W. H. Benjamin, Silver State No. 7, Pueblo; G.

Colorado Springs was voted for the next meeting place in July, 1916.

Pythians Solve Housing Problem at Ohio Capital. VICTORY FOR LOCAL ORDER
Supreme Lodge Entertainment Committee Puts Quietus on Wild Rumor of Inadequate Accommodations For Delegates and Visitors to Mammoth Pythian Encampment in August.
Columbus.—The problem of securing sufficient homes and hotel accommodations for the delegates and visitors to the great meeting of the Knights of Pythias to be held in this city in August is rapidly being solved by the supreme lodge local committee here. The gathering marks the eighteenth biennial session of the supreme lodge of the Knights of Pythias of the World and the eighth biennial session of the encampment of the uniform rank department and also the sixteenth biennial session of the Supreme Court of Calanthe.
The problem at first appeared a little difficult to the executive committee, but it quickly decided upon a plan under which the city has been divided into districts and two or three members of the committee assigned to work in each district. As a result of this system, which has been operated with a high degree of accuracy, accommodations for more than 15,000 persons have already been secured. The committee is directing a progressive campaign, and records at headquarters show that accommodations for more than 15,000 people were reported as early as June 15. When the cards are all tabulated, which are due to be filed July 10 to 15, homes for over 25,000 persons will have been listed.
The colored people of this city more than nine years ago were able to accommodate adequately the B. M. C. (a national organization of the Grand United Odd Fellows), which brought to this city some 25,000 or 30,000 visitors, although there were rumors then that the colored people would not be able to take care of such a large convention. The colored citizens of this city a little less than seven years ago accommodated the national Baptist convention, the largest of its kind among our people.
The colored people of Columbus will accommodate adequately and comfortably the Knights of Pythias and the members of the Court of Calanthe and visitors, who will attend this convention. All of the subordinate lodges and courts of Calanthe and the Columbus chamber of commerce have contributed money to help make the supreme session and encampment a success. The colored people in general are co-operating with the local committee in the furtherance of the plan of making the session a successful one. The citizens' committee, consisting of twenty-five prominent members of different fraternal orders of the city, who are not members of the Knights of Pythias, have accepted positions as members of the citizens' committee and are co-operating daily with the executive committee.
When the B. M. C. and the national Baptist convention convened in this city several years ago, as has been referred to, the colored people of this city were not half as well prepared to accommodate and entertain in the way of homes 30,000 or 35,000 people as they are today. It has been said that it is remarkable how during the past few years the colored people of this city have acquired real estate and that they are occupying blocks and squares in large numbers and in locations where they were heretofore not known to own property and therefore are prepared to accommodate more satisfactorily the many thousands of guests who will be in attendance at the coming K. of P. session.
The executive committee, however, in its anxiety to be doubly assured that it will have sufficient homes, is already arranging to furnish and equip two or three buildings for hotel purposes, if it is necessary, which have hereofore been used for that purpose, but which on account of business depression have been suspended. Mrs. Mary Lee, who is in charge of the safeteria department of the Spring street branch of the Young Men's Christian association, has been granted permission by the committee of management of the Spring street association to use the main auditorium for dining purposes during the week of the convention. More than 150 people can be taken care of at one time under this new arrangement. Professor J. H Jackson, the executive secretary of the Spring street branch of the Young Men's Christian association, reported that he will be able to accommodate some fifty or seventy-five men with rooms.
Special notice has been received by the local committee that the Missouri brigade uniform rank, over 700 strong, in a splendidly equipped special train, with a commissary car attached, will leave St. Louis Aug. 14, at 11 p. m. over the B. and O. Southwestern railroad for this city under the command of Assistant Adjutant Frank Ferguson and Brigadier General William H. Butler. A similar notice has been received by the committee that the Pittsburgh brigade uniform rank, over 600 strong, will leave Pittsburgh in a special car Aug. 15.

After much coaxing of Commissioner Greenlee, he has at last put three Colored men to work for the city in the park. The number should have been three times three, that is, if Mr. Greenlee's promises before his election meant anything—for he told the Colored Protective League he would see to it that Colored people should have their share of public work. We sincerely hope that Mr. Greenlee does not consider three Colored appointments in the park, after waiting three months,, a full representation of the Negroes' due and share under him. We thank him for what he has done and trust that he will yet see his way clear to fully measure up to his pre-election promises. In other words keep his word and do his duty.
THOS. B. WILLIAMS.
Messrs. Ed Allison, Edward Clark and R. J. Von Dickerson, were given jobs in the parks by Mr. Greenlee. We hope the jobs will last at least a month or two.
THE SODA DISPENSERS AT
SCHOLTZ' STRIKE.
These are the facts gathered by the Star. There are about 60 colored people working for the Scholtz Drug Stores, including two women. Mr. Scholtz changed his colored help at Colfax and Broadway to white. A committee of the dispensers asked him if the change was to be general; that they had heard that already white soda dispensers from a St. Louis school of soda dispensary were here to take their places, and what did the change mean? They asked for a year's contract. Mr. Scholtz refused to give them a year's contract but assured them he could not or would not promise them employment longer than Jan. 1st at the latest. The boys met and, since they had to go anyway sooner or later, especially at a time when winter was on and jobs scarcest, they quit. Willie Knight's crew at 16th and Lawrence was the only full crew that stuck. John Canada at the Central Loop stayed.
Mr. Scholtz said the reason the change was made was because he could not get efficient colored help all the time. When good men became "old men in the employ" they would either abuse their jobs by getting drunk, carousing around nights before their next day's work, rendering them unfit for the best discharge of their duty, or they would not make proper time and would consider they were boss. He only wanted to make enough changes to solve the situation.
But the boys realized that Denver goes dry Jan. 1st and they did not know, although they heard, that the unions had already demanded of certain business places where Negroes were hired, that white bartenders and help be put in instead of the Negroes. Taking all in all, did the boys act wisely upon what was told them by the clerks, Mr. Scholtz and outside sources? Negotiations are under way and unnecessary comment might injure either side's cause, so the Star is asking the public to suspend judgment and await patiently the outcome.

IMPORTANT POST FOR THE REV. DR. A. J. CAREY.
Chicago's Mayor Appoints Minister Special Bureau Chief.
The Rev. A. J. Carey, D. D., Ph. D., minister at the Institutional A. M. E. church, Chicago, for years a stanch friend of Mayor William Hale Thompson, has been appointed chief of a special investigation bureau in the office of the corporation counsel. He will have six assistants. The salary of the chief will be $2,400 per annum. The appointment was made by instructions from Mayor Thompson, who wished Dr. Carey to have a place which he could hold without interfering with his church duties.
Dr. Carey is one of the most prominent ministers of the A. M. E. connection and has been remarkably successful as the minister and warden of the Institutional church, and it is likely that he will be elected bishop at the next quadrennial conference.
He is known as the militant pastor. He is a man of great eloquence and moral courage. He has won fame for himself in fighting segregation in every form. In a recent public speech Mayor Thompson said: "Dr. Carey is one of my best friends, and the principal reason that I admire him is the fact that he is fearless in his fight against injustice. He never condones wrongs against the colored people, as many so called leaders have done. I admire the man who fears not to stand for the right."
The Rev. Dr. Carey is a member of the Illinois commission for the coming Lincoln jubilee and half century celebration, which opens in Chicago on Sunday, Aug. 22, with a great religious congress. He is also interested in many other good movements for the advancement of the race.
PRESIDENTS OF LAND GRANT COLLEGES TO MEET JULY 30
List of Topics and Speakers For Conference at Cincinnati.
Cincinnati.—The next meeting of the Land Grant college conference will be held in this city, beginning on Friday morning, July 30, at 10 o'clock. Professor Byrd Prillerman, president of the West Virginia Collegiate institute, at Institute, W. Va., is chairman of the conference and will preside at the coming session. The good effect of these conferences upon the various schools of the Land Grant college order has been the subject of much favorable comment.
The idea of having the representatives of the institutions fostered by the Land Grant college fund meet once or twice a year to discuss the many phases of work and detail connected with such agricultural and industrial schools has proved to be a move in the right direction. The paramount object of the presidents of these schools is to establish as far as possible a uniform system of teaching, discipline and general school management.
The program of subjects and speakers for the meeting to be held in Cincinnati will be as follows:
The Negro Land Grant College.—(a) "Its Mission," W. S. Buchanan, president A. and M. college, Normal, Ala.; B. F. H.bert, director of agriculture, A. and M. college, Orangeburg, S. C. (b) "Its Responsibility," J. B. Dudley, president A. and I. college, Greensboro, N. C.; R. R. Wright, president State college, Savannah, Ga. (c) "Its Opportunity," J. S. Clark, president Southern university, Baton Rouge, La.; C. K. Graham, director of agriculture, Hampton institute, Hampton, Va. (d) "Its Relation to Public School System," J. R. Hale, president A. and M. college, Alceon, Miss. The Problem of Dormitory Life.—G. P. Russell, principal Normal school, Frankfort, Ky.; W. J. Hale, principal Normal school, Nashville, Tenn. Preparation of Teachers of Agriculture.—B. F. Allen, president Lincoln institute, Jefferson City, Mo.; J. O. Spencer, president Morgan college, Baltimore, Md.
SOLDIERS WIN FIGHT FOR HOME
Eighth Illinois Secures Armory After Long Struggle. RACE PREJUDICE A BARRIER
Henry M. Hyde Tells Thrilling Story of How Officers and Men of Famous Regiment Kept Together Under the Most Adverse Circumstances—State Comes to Their Rescue.
Chicago.—Henry M. Hyde gives the following account of the struggles and achievements of the Eighth Illinois regiment in war and in peace and its efforts to secure an armory:
The transport sailed from Tampa with 1,500 men of the regiment on board. Peace with Spain had not been declared. They looked forward to a taste of fighting with the dons. Off Santiago they learned that the war was over. Too late for any chance of glory, plenty of hard work remained. For eight months they built roads and telegraph lines, cleaned streets, did all manner of hard and dirty jobs. The old Spanish town and the country round about got the first thorough cleaning in their history.
When the boys got back home their old rented armory had been sold. An ancient livery stable was the best quarters they could get. Up in the loft they stored part of their equipment and supplies. Down on the barn floor they drilled night after night. Privates who had driven coal wagons or handled shovels all day came in two nights a week to the livery barn and drilled from 8 o'clock to 10:30. Commissioned and noncommissioned officers spent more time on their paper work and studies, turning old box stalls into company rooms and offices, doing their best to keep the standard of the regiment among the highest.
Apparently they succeeded. Officers of the regular army sent to inspect it reported year after year that the six companies located in Chicago ranked as high as any militia organization in the state in soldiery efficiency. More than ten years in the old barn! Then it was sold, and the best the regiment could do was to move away and hunt up another. The second old livery stable was in worse condition than the first. But the men and officers stuck to their work. In 1914 they got an appropriation from the legislature of Illinois to build a real armory—their first. Some of the officers had gone out and begged enough money to buy a site. When they got it paid for certain residents in the neighborhood made up their minds that an army would be a nuisance. They brought pressure to bear, and the regiment had to sell the site.
They bought a second site, and a second time plans were made for the building. A second time people in the neighborhood raised an awful row. They couldn't think of allowing a lot of rough soldiers to drill in their vicinity. A third time a site was purchased. This time the contracts were let, and the work of putting up the building began promptly. Last winter when the shell was under cover and the regiment found it would have to move into the uncompleted building or else into the street, the discovery was made that no arrangements had been made to heat or light the armory and that no money remained with which to pay for the work. The colonel of the regiment came to the front for it. He signed notes for $8,000, and the boilers and lights were put in.
But meanwhile the regiment—or that part of it located in Chicago—had increased in size. Two down state companies were mustered out of the service. Units to take their places were recruited in Chicago. Room had to be made for eight companies of the line, in addition to the headquarters company, the hospital corps, the machine gun company, the drum and fife corps, the supply company and the band—800 men in all.
The legislature which recently adjourned passed a bill appropriating the money to finish the job. Just as soon as it is signed by Governor Dunne, probably within the next few days, work will be begun and rushed to a finish.
In October, 1914, when the corner stone was laid, Governor Dunne was one of the orators. He said that the diligence and patience shown by the regiment in drill and rifle practice under the most adverse conditions conceivable and without any hope of financial reward deserved recognition and that he was glad that it was getting it during his administration.
The Eighth Illinois is made up entirely of colored troops. Eight of the twelve line companies and all the special corps are located in Chicago. The new and unfinished armory stands at Forest avenue and Thirty-fifth street. Colonel F. A. Denison is the commanding officer who signed the note for $8,000 which made it possible to put in the heating plant and electric lights.

GREAT ADVANCE IN CHURCH WORK
New England Baptist Convention Makes Rapid Strides. PASSES ANOTHER MILESTONE
In Masterly Address at Convention Held in New York Dr. W. Bishop Johnson Says the Church is Still the Supply House For Racial Integrity and Enterprise.
New York.-The New England Baptist missionary convention begins its forty-second year under favorable circumstances and with new vigor. The work of the convention under the enlarged plan inaugurated three years ago has passed the experimental stage, and the whole territory of the convention strengthened in its work. The aspirations and achievements of the convention were beautifully portrayed by its president, the Rev. Dr. W. Bishop Johnson of Washington, in his annual address at the forty-first annual meeting of the organization held recently at the Mount Olivet Baptist church in this city.
Dr. Johnson in part said:
Once more in the silent revolution of time we are assembled in the annual session of the grand old man England missionary Bodhi the visionary mander in Chief of the redeemed of earth hails us from the skies, and across the centuries waves his crucified hands and cries in tender, loving tones, "Watchman, what of the night?" We stand upon the threshold of another year. Looking backward we see much for which to be thankful. The churches have enjoyed unusual peace and prosperity. Great revivals have characterized the life of our denominational family and many thousands have been baptized, and equally as many have been quickened to do more for the extension of the Master's kingdom.
Never have we been confronted with greater evidence that the church life of the Negro is still a potential factor in racial development. The fact still remains that the church is today, as it always has been, the supply house for racial integrity and enterprise. All the great moral, social, business and educational concerns that have added so many chapters in the volume of race efficiency have been born in our churches, and we would be the basest ingrates if we attempted to deny it. It was within the sacred confines of the church that we caught the vision-God and race. Since then we have pressed our way to the mount of fulfillment through the wide, deep valley of sacrifice, suffering and service, singing
"Sure I must fight if I would reign, Increase my courage, Lord."
No matter how we climb the heights of human tenures, we how distinguished the seat of honor we may occupy, let us not forget the church. Let us enshrine her in our deepest and best affections. This has been a year of unparalleled significance in world history and prophetic fulfillment. Never since Calvary's struggle has this old world rocked and trembled under imperial revolution, under the unloosing of military war dogs, under the destruction of the toll, strength and beauty of the ages; under the turning of the idle, not of civilization, but of war; under the destruction of which cried like the Babel builders "Go to; let us build us a city, and a tower whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name."
The most civilized and enlightened of the nations of Europe are grappling with each other as if in a death struggle. They are sacrificing the best and bravest of their sons on the battlefield; they are converting their gardens into cemeteries and their homes into houses of mourning; they are taxing the wealth of today and laying a burden of debt on the toll of the future; they have filled the air with thunderbolts more deadly than those of Jove, and they have multiplied the perils of war. Adding fresh fuel to the flame of hate, they have daily devised new horrors until one side is endeavoring to drown noncombatant men, women and children at sea, while the other side seeks to starve noncombatant men, women and children on land. War is God's test of a nation's soul. The Lord of hosts has made righteousness the path of victory. In the crash of conflict, in the horrors of battlefields, pilled with dead and dying, a great moral and spiritual lesson may be learned. It establishes the rule not that might is right, but that right always creates might. Men have fought on the church to Christ. They have ignored the church and the religion for which it stands as an exponent. Christianity always succeeds where materialism fails.
Education and missions should be the warcry of this body. But we can never get due credit for our work nor form a self respecting idea of the magnitude of what we are doing until we are really convinced of the demand upon us and the urgent need of united effort in making this the dominant call to the loyal support of our convention. No department of denominational work can suffer when the educational and missionary spirit is alive. The Christian religion is a missionary religion. Its founder was the author of missions. He took the longest missionary journey known to man, from arctic to earth's highways and hedges; from celestial heights, with ministering cohorts of angelie spirits, hurrying to do errands for the king of kings, to earth's lowlands, strewn with the burden by sin and the loss of all ages.
Olivet's command. "Go teach all nations," links education and missions into an indissoluble union, and "What God hath joined together let no man put asunder." Every educational institution planted is a fountain of living water, whose stream makes glaciality of God; it is the oasis in the desert life of the people; it is the voice in the world's wilderness, inspiring and heartening; it is the bulwark of strength in the world's best and highest civilization; it is the open door of usefulness and efficiency for all the future until the death of time.

Baptists In Efforts to Save Property.
President W. Bishop Johnson of the New England Baptist missionary convention has called upon the ministers of the churches of the convention for contributions from their congregations to prevent the loss of a valuable piece of church property for debt. Several churches have indicated their intention to render financial aid to the church in question, which is without a minister. Dr. Johnson was in Brooklyn on Saturday, July 17, in the interest of the matter.

THE LINCOLN JUBILEE AND HALF CENTURY EXPOSITION
Chicago to Have Many Notable Gatherings in August and September.
Chicago.—This city will be the host of many notable gatherings during the months of August and September. Among the organizations of national importance which will hold their annual conventions here are the National Medical association, beginning Aug. 24; the National Order of Elks and the national Baptist convention. But the chief event, in which the state and the nation are especially interested, is the Lincoln jubilee and national half century celebration, showing the progress of the colored people during the past fifty years as free Americans.
An attractive feature in connection with the coming exposition, to open here with appropriate religious exercises on Sunday, Aug. 22, will be an exhibit of data showing the contributions made by the leaders for Negro freedom. Much of this data is already assembled, and only little of it has ever been published. It includes not only the liberators of the emancipation period, but covers almost minutely the work of the early patriots as far back as the days of the American Revolution.
The commission in charge of the celebration, which will be held in the Coliseum, is headed by that distinguished churchman and patriot, Bishop Samuel Fallows, with Thomas Wallace Swann, the man noted for bringing things to pass as secretary. The men in charge of the work are all men of wide experience in work of the kind intrusted to their care by the state of Illinois. They have been extremely fortunate in having had the privilege of witnessing the work and results of several very creditable state expositions within the past few years. Notable among them are the New Jersey exposition, the New York exposition, the Pennsylvania exposition and the one now in progress at Richmond, Va.
The exposition to be held here will have twelve distinct departments, and in them will be shown exhibits from every state in which the Negro is a part of the population. These departments are religion, education, industry, social progress, music, sociology, military, liberal arts, professional, fraternal, athletics and miscellaneous. Nineteen state legislatures have either passed or have before them bills providing appropriations to establish state exhibits. Hundreds of letters approving the purpose of the exposition have been received, representing every race and religion, every profession and business and social activity in the United States.
The exhibits of the progress of the colored man since his emancipation from slavery will be many and various. Each of the 400 colored schools and colleges in the United States will be represented. The best of 2,000 patients granted to colored men by the federal government will by special arrangement be brought to Chicago to show in the Colleum.
The government of Liberia, Africa, made up originally of freed slaves from America, will send an exhibit, and Professor Frederick Starr of the University of Chicago has been appointed its official representative by the Liberian government. The Roman Catholic exhibit will be a feature of the exposition, including besides paintings and sculpture many holy relies of the Negro in his relation to the church.
THE FIGHT ON SEGREGATION.
National Association to Further Test
Legality of Louisville (Ky.) Law.
The segregation case against which the Kentucky court of appeals recently decided unfavorably by holding the Louisville ordinance valid was initiated and carried up to the highest court in Kentucky by the Louisville branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, co-operating with the national office in New York.
The decision in this case was given while a representative sent from the New York office of the N. A. A. C. P. to investigate the segregation case was in Louisville. A mass meeting was immediately called in Quinn chapel, the Rev. Mr. Harvey pastor. At this meeting it was voted to carry the case up to the supreme court of the United States, and the local branch immediately organized a committee of over 100, under twenty-five captains, to raise part of the necessary funds.
The national association has been encouraged by the recent decision of the supreme court in declaring the grandfather laws invalid. It offered its aid to the colored men who brought the grandfather case from Maryland and in the Oklahoma case had, through its president, Moorfield Storey of Boston, filed a brief, which was all that could be done, since no argument was advanced.
The Oklahoma case was one between the United States on the one hand and certain registrars of voters on the other, arising from an attempt on the part of the United States government to punish the defendants for complying with the provisions of the Oklahoma amendment. The government as party to the case was represented by its solicitor general. The brief which Mr. Storey prepared was presented to the court by his friend, Jackson H. Ralston, an eminent lawyer of Washington, whose application could not fail to command the respect of the court. It is the intention of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People to carry a succession of cases to the supreme court of the United States until it has succeeded in placing that court on record on the race question before the country.

LINCOLN AWARDS PRIZES TO MANY
75 Days
Famous Pennsylvania School Graduates Large Class. FEATURES OF THE PROGRAM
A Big Subscription Campaign
President Rendall Delivers Baccalaureate Sermon and Liberian Consul Ernest Lyon Addresses the Literary Societies—Graduating Class Presents the University With Check For $100.
Although the commencement exercises at Lincoln university, Pennsylvania, are always good, those which marked the close of the 1915 term were considered to have been the best in the history of the institution. The class was one of the largest that has been graduated for many years. The exercises commenced by the celebration of the anniversary of the Philosophian Literary society and the Garnet Literary association. Hon. Ernest Lyon, consul general of the Republic of Liberia to the United States, delivered an address on "The Genius, Characteristics and Contribution of the Black Race to the Civilizations of Mankind."
A Startling Opportunity To Save Money.
The eleth annual Opdyke prize debate was held. This is a contest between debating teams representing the two literary societies and is always an interesting event because of the friendly rivalry between them. The question for debate this year was "The Best Interests of United States Demand a Permanent and Substantial Increase In Our Army and Navy." The affirmative fell to the lot of the Philosophian society, which was represented by the following: N. A. Holmes, New Jersey; H. H. Cain, Georgia; A. F. White, Virginia; alternate, D. G. Hill, Maryland. The Garnet Literary association had the negative in the debate. It was represented by A. S. Beckham, South Carolina; H. Brown, Pennsylvania, and H. B. Burton.
To Our Readers and Friends:-- This offer made in the "Star" is especially for you. In order to supply a greater number of people and keep them abreast with the latest news during vacation time and the long winter months,
The Judges for the debate were Professor Samuel Dickey of McCormick Theological seminary, Chicago, formerly professor of Greek in Lincoln; Dr W. P. Finney of Johns Hopkins university, Baltimore, and Mr. John Johnson of Brazil. The presiding officer was Professor S. C. Hodge. The decision was given to the Philosophian society, which had the affirmative. The individual medal for the best debater was awarded to A. F. White.

nished and light and dainty refresh-
ments were served. Prominent peo-
ple In autos came from far and near

a secret society in the usual accepted
sense of that term. While it has a
fraternal side to it, as a matter of
fact {t is really a large insurance or-
| ganization, regulated after the fashion
of any old line insurance company
with its reserve, etc.
Although it Is officered entirely by
colored men and its membership is
composed exclusively of colored, it is
rated by the Insurance Department of
the state as among the strongest and
safest of them all, regardless of color.
It is really the duty of every race-
‘loving man and woman of Denver to

about this, one of the biggest Negro
business enterprises in the United
States.
