Parents Must Prepare Children Now to Solve World's Future Problems. What Are You Doing? "The United States wants control of Haiti because of its proximity to the Panama Canal. This fact is responsible for the American Government taking advantage of the European war to establish control in my country." 'So says Dr. Rosalvo Bobo, one-time leader of the Haitian revolutionary faction. To avoid complications with the American Government Dr. Bobo threw down his arms upon American intervention. He is reported to be in Santo Domingo at this time. Dr. Hobo is not the only Haitian who has questioned his country's future in view of the American intervention. Many Haitians and Americans, too, are vastly interested in the future of the little republic. These people want to know why Haiti of all the nations was singled out for Uncle Sam's bullying. Haiti had committed no other crime but what is being committed every minute in Europe today. The little island is not in competition with Georgia and other Southern States. Unlike Mexico, no American has lost his life in Haiti prior to the American occupation. Unlike Germany, Haiti boasted no murderous submarines that were cutting capers in international law. The Haitians laid no claims to the ocean. They prevented no one from traveling thereon. They murdered no women and children, or defenceless neutrals. In fact, they committed none of those crimes that have made civilization stand aghast at the spectacle of Germany and Georgia running amuck among the opinions and laws of mankind. They had troubles of their own, to be sure. Bloodshed enough, God knows. But in their own way they were attempting a settlement. Yet, while Mexico, where scores of Americans have been murdered, Mexico, where American citizens have asked in vain for protection, was let alone or at the most admonished and pleaded with by an A. B. C. conference; Haiti. the weaker power, Haiti, the less offensive, was taken on the knee and spanked. And while American gunboats and battleships are making a fine show down at Haiti, the Kaiser mocks us from across the sea and answers our latest Lusitania note with a repetition of the act, and the further murder of American citizens. No wonder many people are puzzled by the American attitude, and like the Colombian journalist writing to the New York World begs for elucidation. His letter follows; Puzzled by some recent political events, I beg of your kindness to answer me this question: What difference, if any, is their between the sovereignty of Colombia or Haiti and that of Mexico? In 1903 the American Government not only violated the sovereignty of Colombia, but by doing so made a "scrap of paper" out of a sacred treaty. Now, a few days ago, Haiti was occupied by the United States and is actually ruled militarily by this country, in spite of the protestations of the Congress of the Latin-American nation. In Mexico the American flag has been trampled upon, profaned and mocked; American citizens have been killed and women insulted, the Government of the United States ridiculed by the Chiefs and Generals of the revolution, and still it reems that this country hesitates in taking any action that might displease the few thousands of rebels of Mexico who are starving several millions of peaceful people. I do not want to criticise. I simply recount facts. The case of Haiti is similar to that of Mexico, being of course not so grave and old. The case of Colombia was a mainly different one. You know of it better than I do, and you can be assured that your honest and faithful campaign on that occasion is something which has not been forgotten. ROSALES DE LA ROSA, Colombian Journalist New York, Aug. 14. Nor is he alone. The New York lies up the question in the following edi- "There comes a sudden revolution in int captures and kills a hundred of the militace is so angry with him that they a is to the French legation, but the mol- ges him out and fills him with bu days old, and President Wilson send the capital to protect foreign lives and a small republic and a Negro republ- nt. We can take sudden and forcible "Two days, but Mexico has been in a Nor is he alone. The New York Independent also takes up the question in the following editorial: "There comes a sudden revolution in Haiti and its president captures and kills a hundred of the rebels. Then the populace is so angry with him that they attack him and he flees to the French legation, but the mob beats its way in, drags him out and and fills him with bullets. The news is two days old, and President Wilson sends a military force to the capital to protect foreign lives and to maintain order. It is a small republic and a Negro republic, and it does not count. We can take sudden and forcible and drastic action. "Two days, but Mexico has been in a turmoil for more years than that, fighting all over the country, multitudes of prisoners murdered, from president down, foreigners murdered by the dozen (none were murdered in Hayti), and Americans and British and Germans robbed, their lives endangered when they are not killed, obliged to flee for their lives and leave millions of wealth to be looted. The condition has been appalling, and the United States has looked on and watched and waited. The president has threatened, but thus far has not interfered, except as for a few weeks to send soldiers to a coast city for protection. The President does not treat Mexico as he does Hayti.—Amsterdam News. that round table of peace and speak out for the submerged black man. Get yourselves ready, for the time is soon at hand. Let our slogan be; Fear not shrink nor shirk, but contend aspire and work. "But how can he expect that others should build for him, sow for him, and at his call, love him, who for him self will take no heed at all?" What must the American Negro do about this? What is he going to do about this; sit still and watch the chains of limitations slowly but surely tighten around his neck of the world's ambitions? He must know now and for all times just as he assumes the individual responsibility of citizenship in a city, county, and state, so must the race rise to the world's standard of other races and take its place along the side with them bearing burdens of responsibility and sharing benefits of honors and substantial worth All the more have the eyes of the world been fixed upon the American Negro to LEAD out, by getting into the Japanese Army and Navy as gunners, marksmen etc, make friends with the Mexicans, become so indispensable to them that they will call for Negro brain and ambition. Fill up the ranks of those business, educated, scientific, mechanic and all kinds of craftsmen killed in the war. These ranks must be filled when peace is declared Be ye ready, men of African extraction to rise with that tide. Just as Mexico developed a Villa, who was unwelcome in the land of his birth, so can Mexico, yes, Haiti also, can develop other leaders in thought and action, United States to the contrary notwithstanding. This European war is fastly developing an international race situation in which the colored races must figure prominently. Driven for reasons of self-preservation to the extremity of cohesive action with other colored people let us now lay a solid and fundamental foundation for future action. Mr. Negro, your house of protection, ambition and future welfare is on fire. Arouse ye, why halt ye between two opinions, when our young boys and girls while they learn "American" ideals in the public schools, need to be taught also by you to get ready to take part in the impending conflict just ahead of them. It is your duty to prepare them for what is coming just as it was your mother's and father's duty to prepare you in school training. America has no war today, yet she is making a larger Navy and Army for her protection. Let us not be behind our beloved country and when these problems arise touching our interests and us especially, we shall be prepared to sit around that round table of peace and speak out for the submerged black man. Get yourselves ready, for the time is soon at hand. Let our slogan be; Fear not, shrink nor shirk, but contend, aspire and work. "But how can he expect that others should build for him, sow for him, and at his call love him, who for himself will take no heed at all?" —Wordworth.

The local shriners gave them such a royal welcome and reception, the like of which has never been experienced in Denver. The large Stock men's club was at the disposal of our honored guest and those present say that those fond memories of the evening's pleasantries and instruction can never be forgotten. They resumed their journey after seeing Denver by automobile. Governor Willis of Ohio Governor Willis of Ohio in his welcome address to the Colored Knights of Pythians in the city of Columbus, said among other things: "That so long as I have any influence with this administration there will not be produced in the State of Ohio any photoplays that are calculated to reflect upon any class of our citizens. As the chairman has very properly stated, it is entirely possible for the races to live together in peace and harmony, but it is not possible if we allow the production upon the stage of pic- 1.

Governor Willis is the man who stopped the exhibition of the photoplay, "The Nigger." He also would not allow the "Birth of a Nation" to show in any of the cities of Ohio. A few more executives of Governor Willis' make-up could do much toward making the flag and the constitution of this country stand for what they were intended—emblems of justice and equality before the law.—Portland Advocate. Eighth Regiment Home. Chicago, Ill.—The Eighth Illinois Regiment of Chicago has returned to the city after their annual encampment at Springfield, Ill., under the command of Col. Franklin A.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH, Twenty-fourth Avenue and Ogden St. David E. Over, D. D., Minister. Residence, 2356 Humboldt St. Quite a large portion of the membership was present at the Sunday evening communion service. It was indeed delightfully inspiring to have the Rev. Drs.

D., minister of the St. Paul A. M. E. church, St. Louis, has returned to his home after a most interesting trip to New York and other large cities of the east. While in New York Dr. Brooks was kept very busy with matters pertaining to the International Order of Mystic Shriners, which held its annual session in New York the early part of August. He is a member of the order and shows great interest in its work. Dr. Brooks also attended to much important business connected with his denomination and his church. From New York he went to Washington, where he 'was also warmly received and kept busy. He is one of the most prominent of the many able young ministers of the African Methodist church. His rise and success in the ministry have been almost phenomenal. He is well educated, eloquent and gifted as a preacher, and if one is to judge from his past record it is safe to predict for him the highest honor in the gift of his denomination in the near future. He is a man of courage, fine common sense and energetic to a degree. Dr. Brooks is not only scholarly, but a trained writer. He has traveled extensively in the Holy Land and has put the results of his travel and study in writing. His new book, entitled "Footprints of a Black Man in the Holy Land," has recently come from the press. Dr. Brooks is not only interested in the immediate work of his church and denomination, but in all good movements for the good of the race. He is also much interested in the young people and believes in giving them a chance to be trained along both religious and secular lines. His friends throughout the country are watching his progress with keen interest. GREATER NEW YORK CHURCH UNION CONDEMNS LYNCHING Murder of Will Stanley Arouses Industrial Religious Organization. New York - Ministers of fifteen churches, members of the Baptist Church Union of Greater New York, at its regular meeting for August, adopted the following resolutions condemning mob rule in the south and with special reference to the recent lynching of Will Stanley at Temple Tex. Whereas, We have observed from the columns of the New York daily papers another unlawful, inhuman and flendish crime committed by the white citizen composed of men, women and children in the public square of Temple, Tex., of the unlawful taking away from the officers of the law, as prisoner, a colored man by the name of Will Stanley, charged with the murder of the three Grimes children, thereby defeating the ends of the court of justice in its mission and the unlawful taking of human life in the most savage way known, thereby robbing the prisoner of all the civic rights decreed to him under the constitution of this country; and whereas We have taken this similar, unlawful and inhuman acts of any people are steps backward in the progress of Christian civilization in this age and country; and Whereas, We as law abiding citizens positively and unreservedly condemn crime of whatever nature by whomsoever it may be committed regardless of race or color, and while in years gone by we have looked to our white friends who professed superiority for higher ideals in society and religion, we are pained with regret to say that our hopes have utterly failed, and now we conclude our only hope in "chance" that we will have had penings as this which blot our civilization and places our Christianity into ill repute. However, we still believe some way or other that it is our bounden duty to trust and protect the government, to which we have proved our loyalty and fidelity by pouring out our life's blood on every battlefield and in every war. Not only that, but in every class of service we have been called upon to render from the time our forefathers landed here until now, and we are as willing now to do as ever if we are treated and protected sufficiently that the majority of the people of this country are willing to accord to us those rights guaranteed to us by the constitution, and that is all we ask and all we want: Therefore, Be it resolved, that we, as members of the Baptist Church Union of Greater New York, pastors of fifteen regular Baptist churches composing this compact, do in general mass meeting assemble and unanimously agree to petition to the chief executive of the nation. Hon. John A. McCarthy, the first United States, in whose generous, unblessed and impartial judgment we believe and in whose Christian principles we have faith, asking that he will use his interest in behalf of the millions of defenseless colored people who are at the mercy of just that class of people who unlawfully took from the officers Will Stanley, who was burned and shot to death in the old square at Temple, Tex.

Mr. Smith in a letter to Governor Willis recently called the chief executive's attention to the proposed legislation and received from the governor the following reply: State of Ohio, Executive Department. Columbus, Aug. 25, 1915. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, O. Dear Mr. Smith—I thank you for your letter with included clipping. I am glad to note that you published Mr. Boyle's statement in full. This, it appears to me, is a complete answer to the misrepresentations that were made relative to the action of the tax commission. I thank you sincerely for your courtesy in setting the matter right with your good people. I notice the reference you make to the forms which have been provided by the state medical board under the "Platt-Ellis" bill, which took this matter up with Dr. Matthias, secretary of the board. After quite a full discussion the doctor agreed to eliminate the objectionable provision. The new blanks will say nothing about race or complexion. Neither will photographs be required. I trust that this action meets with your approval. Very truly yours. Evil influences at Work in the South. An Atlanta (Ga.) dispatch says there has sprung up recently in the rural sections of several southern states an expression of racial feeling which if allowed to take its course would. It is believed, do more to prevent the advancement of the Negro and the solution of the problem of the whites and the blacks living in harmony and proper social and economic relation than any influence which has put in its appearance in the last decade. PROGRESS AMONG NEWSPAPER MEN Work of National Negro Press Association Noted. SUGCEEDING IN NEW FIELDS Henry Allen Boyd In Address at Boston Paints Glowing Picture of the Efforts and Achievements of the Association In Various Directions. Many New Features Projected. Boston.—The address of Henry Allen Boyd, corresponding secretary of the National Negro Press association, before the recent meeting of the National Negro Business league recently held here, was a fine feature of the convention. Mr. Boyd covered the activities of the association and its achievements since its inception at Louisville, Ky., in August, 1909, very thoroughly. Among the advance steps taken by the association as outlined in Secretary Boyd's address are the following: M. HENRY ALLEN BOYD. The compilation of a newspaper and bank directory, the inauguration of a reciprocity news service, the traveling membership card, the standardization of newspaper advertising, the inner circle telegraphic news service, the telegraphic collect card system, the metal membership badge to introduce the members and correspondents to county and state officials, the recognition of news gathering associations home and abroad, a telegraphic code system for the membership of the craft, a systematic plate news service system and a recognized school of journalism for newspaper correspondents. Mr. Boyd said these steps had been taken with great precaution and entailed considerable labor on the part of the officers of the association; that the first undertaking, that of preparing a newspaper directory, meant more work possibly than any other feature. There are more than 400 newspapers and magazines published by our people in the United States. Not so many of the publishers are acquainted with one another, however. But after the compilation of this directory the newspapers began to become better acquainted with one another, and each year since then the membership of the association has greatly increased. The reciprocal news service was started after careful consideration, discussion and correspondence. It was found that the daily papers, associated presses, dispatches, etc., were not giving the Negro citizens a square deal and that the more essential things for the benefit of the race in general were not included in these dispatches, but that the Negro was being greatly misrepresented. The wrongs committed and errors made were in many instances magnified, while their virtues, adventures, investments and prospects were being greatly minimized, if told at all. Therefore it would be easy, as the papers were giving important news and facts for their own local papers to reciprocate by giving such news to other papers; hence the things that were known locally might be sent broadcast for the upbuilding of the entire race. It was also found that the standardization of advertising matter was more needed among us than any other industry known to our people. The manufacturers and the agents are anxious to have our trade, but they pay large compensation to the daily papers and have not heretofore recognized the Negro journals. The object, therefore, to be obtained in this is to work together to have the merchant understand that if he wants our trade he should advertise in Negro journals. If this can be fully set forth the white business concerns can be made to understand that in order to reach Negro patrons they must do it through Negro newspapers. Then and not until then will the Negro newspapers receive a proper and just recompense of reward for their labor. Speaking on the question of the inner circle teleographic news service, Mr Boyd said that from years of expertise and constant travelling be found that the Negro newspapers would have a far better and larger circulation if the readers could depend on these papers for the doings at a distance at short notice; that invariably Negro papers under the present system have no particular systematic rule of giving and forwarding this news. The telegraph company when approached on this subject expressed its willingness to give the Negro papers the same service if our papers become patrons. Since we have taken this step thousands of messages have been flashed over the wires to our members. With the use of the telegraphic collect card and the membership card the correspondent may present his two cards at any office and have the newspaper pay for the message at its home office. It can be seen that through this system the Negro newspapers may have their correspondents on the road gathering news, and that news can be sent to hundreds of newspapers without any cost to himself and each newspaper pay for the message at its own home office. If this can be thoroughly understood the Negro newspapers of this country will have taken a long needed step. As to the use of the membership metal badge, Mr. Boyd said that this step was not and is not understood by the newspaper fraternity and correspondents themselves. The object of this metal badge and its use are one of the greatest steps that have yet been undertaken for the real benefit of our people who might be so unfortunate as to fall into the clutches of the law. By the use of this metal badge being understood and recognized by state, county and city officials a member of the press association would be admitted to most any place where anything of importance happens and could thus give to the race the facts instead of depending solely upon the stories as given in the daily papers, which are quite often misleading. LOVEJOY'S PRINTING PRESS Chicago Visitors Attracted by Historic Relic of Famous Abolitionist. Chicago.-The Lincoln jubilee and half century celebration, designed to show the progress of the colored race in America during the past fifty years, was formally opened in this city on Monday, Aug. 24. This is perhaps the last and doubtless the greatest of any similar exposition held in commemoration of the first half hundred years since the civil war. One of the very first objects to attract the attention of the visitors on the opening day was a hand printing press such as was used fifty years ago. This little relic was surrounded by a cluster of automobiles of the 1915 model, which formed a striking contrast in mechanical construction. The printing press was the historic one on which Owen P. Lovejoy printed his abolition newspaper at Alton, Ill., his sword being death at the hands of a mob. The press was thrown into a river. The motorcars on exhibition are for the inspection of well to do colored farmers and business men of the present generation. In the center of the Coliseum, where the exposition is being held, is a life size statue of Abraham Lincoln, which rests in a miniature temple. "Let us keep step to the music of the republic," an injunction written by Lincoln, is the keynote of the exposition, which is made up of exhibits which are claimed by Bishop Fallows and his fellow Illinois commissioners to be the most striking collection of the achievements of the race which has ever been assembled at any one time or place. The exposition is being largely attended each day and night. It will not close until Thursday, Sept. 16, which will be designated as Illinois day. The celebration is so full of interest to white and colored people that it has already developed that it will be barely possible for the great crowds to see and examine with profit the multitude of exhibits and charts of figures and facts before the exposition closes. Sept. 2 is designated as Roman Catholic Order of Foresters' day, Sept. 3 Presbyterian and True Reformers' day and Sept 4 Kentucky day. The officers of the Illinois commission in charge of the exposition are: President ex officio, Hon. Edward F. Dunne, governor of Illinois. President. Right Rev. Samuel Fallowa. D. D. LL. D. Treasurer, Major George W. Ford. Rev. A. J. Carey, Ph. D, D. D.; Hon. John Dailey, Hon. W. Duff Piercy, Hon. R. R. Jackson, Hon. Medill McCormick. Secretary, Thomas Wallace Swann.

Teachers and Farmers Exchange Views. A feature of the summer school for teachers held at the State Agricultural and Mechanical college, Orangeburg, S.C., the past summer was a big mass meeting of farmers. Topics bearing directly on farming were explained by expert agriculturists for the benefit of the farmers. Professor R. S. Wilkinson, president of the state college, made it pleasant for these rural workers and gave them much helpful advice and encouragement. Philadelphia's Active Civic League. At a meeting of the Emancipation Civic league of Philadelphia held in the Zion Baptist church the members indorsed the candidacy of Charles Fred White for city magistrate. The league also went on record as favoring woman suffrage. The organization is opposed to the candidacy of J. P. Rogera, who wants to succeed Judge Sulberger for the common pleas court No. 1.

Perkins was the prom- inent figure, at a recent meeting of New York Progressive leaders at Al- vany. There were 29 men present— which, for a state-wide meeting, is not impressive. Mr. Perkins made a speech, in which regard he is becom- ing almost as famous as Mr. Bryan. His remarks were directed toward picturing the state of the country when the European war is over. Then, he said, Europe would be able, thanks to the Wilson tariff, to flood this country with the products of cheap labor and great industrial de- pression would follow. In order to avert this dire result, Mr. Perkins advocated a vontinuance of the Progressive party with a full set of candidates, and he severely chided any and all Progressives who should have the temerity to suggest reunion with the Republicans. The Progressive party, he said, is the only one that offers a plan which looks to “preparing this country to fight the battles of the industrial marts in case of peace and the battles of guns and men in case of war.” All of which is very pretty—and very perplexing. Suppose that the Progressive party has “the only plan.” Will Mr. Per- kins be good enough to point out how the Progressive party can put that plan into operation? The Progres- sive party, at the top of its stride in 1912, could not carry the country then, The Progressive party is now, to quote the words of an earlier ora- tor than Mr. Perkins, “discordant, be- ligerent, dis-severed.” How, then, can it carry the country now? The only thing the Progressive party can possibly accomplish now by its continuance with “the only plan” is to perpetuate the tariff for which “the only plan” is a remedy. We doubt if the Progressive party can accomplish even that, despite Mr. Perkins’ oratory. But if the Pro- gressive party sincerely wishes to do anything beneficial with, “the only plan,” we invite Mr. Perkins, and such of the party as are, left, to come back into Republican ranks, bringing “the only plan” with them. If the plan is a good one, the Republicans will make use of it. ‘The director of the Mint (Democrat of course) sees prosperity at hand. He finds proof of it in an unexampled demand for subsidiary silver coins, This demand, he says, “coming, of course, through the banks, originated with the manufacturers and other em: ployers of labor, who want the coins fo use in their payrolls.” This is typical of the general run of Demo cratic argument. Because manufac turers want ten-cent pieces for theit payrolls, the country is prosperous Payrolls under Republican times called for bank-notes, not dimes. The Postmaster General appears to have assumed the role of promoter o! divorce. At any rate the opponents of divorce so interpret an announce ment of a competitive examinatior for places in the postal service which states that a married woman cannot go upon the eligible list, after pass ing the examination, unless she first obtains a decree of divorce. For some time married women have not beer permitted on the eligible list, but the rule today bars out even those wh have left their husbands or whose husbands have left them. The mere severance of diplomatic and residen tial relations means nothing to Mr Burleson. He wants an actual di yorce. This will prove a good deal of hardship to women whose religious seruples do not admit them to the divorce courts, and also to the womer of South Carolina, where the laws do not sanctjon divorce. “Coming out of its trance” is the terse description of a Western editor for the change in the administration’s Mexican policy. “THANKS STAR AND PUBLIC. Civic Beauty Innovation Grand Success, The Civic Beauty committee takes this method of thanking the public in general, and those citizens in particu- lar who contributed to the success of the undertaking by entering the civic beauty contest. We are greatly obligated to the Denver Star for its more than liberal support as a publicity medium; to the judges who sacrificed their time and Yendered such efficient service, and to Mr. Cammel, the undertaker, for his generous donation to automobile hire. Respectfully, CIVIC BEAUTY COMMITTEE, ‘The Star is always favorable to any uplifting activity wherein morals and ambitions are strengthened and exem- plified. - When the Pond Lily, Sun- shine, XX Century and Taka Art clubs decided to give prizes for our civic beauty pride, The Star was elat- ed to help, which resulted in a deep and widespread awakening of the many citizens of Denver to their duty of encouraging civic pride and to the beautifying of their homes. Instead of doing that alone, it awakened the aesthetic, pastorial and horticultural ambitions. So that next year Denver might well expect her citizens of color to have sunken gardens, floral attractions interspersed through her ‘beautiful lawns, and a future develop- ment in civie beauty and pride among her citizens second to none. To the clubs belongs much honor, but the greatest honors belong to the public- ity committee, Mesdames Teenie Ly- ons of the Sunshine, N. L. Douglass of the Pond Lily Art, Chas. Winters of the XX C. Art, and Mrs, J.P. Starks (chairman), of the Taka Art club, Denver and The Star are proud of this wonderful awakening by this innovation and thank the committee and clubs in behalf of the citizens of Denver. THE COLORED CITIZENS’ LEAGUE PLACES ITSELF ON RECORD AGAINST THE SHOWING IN DENVER OF A “BIRTH OF A NATION.” An article appeared in the Denver Post in July announcing the probable coming to Denver of the “Birth of a Nation.” ‘The Colored Citizens’ League took the matter up at its meeting July 31 and of this date mailed a communica- tion to Dr. Sharpley with the article from the Denver Post, asking the mayor not to issue a license for the exhibition of “The Birth of a Nation.” The communication stated the grounds of protest and named cities and states wherein the play had been prohibited. The communication sent the mayor was referred to the Commissioner of Safety, Mr. Nisbet, and the Colored Citizens’ League was so informed in the reply from the mayor's office. ‘The League received a communica: tion from the office of Commissioner of Safety, department of Censorship, signed by Mrs, Margaret D. Conway, amusement censor, who invited the Colored Citizens’ League to the office for an interview regarding the play. On Friday, Aug. 27, a committee of the League met the Commissioner of Safety, Mr. Nisbet, and laid the mat ter clearly, and it is thought impres sively, before his honor. ‘The Colored Citizens’ League takes the stand that everything should be done away ahead of time to prevent the exhibition of this play so that [lien the play applies for a license lit will not be necessary to help ad vertise this undesirable show in late \ arokancite) ‘agitation. | CITY NEWS. - MARRIAGE ANNOUNCEMENT. nie (ana st gianna cotati wish to announce the engagement of their daughter Nellie Evelyn to Mr. William R.

Admission 25c Music by Webster’s Orchestra R. L. Phynix, Manager AMONG THE TENNIS FANS. Labor day was indeed a great day for Denver's tennis fans, whose num- ber has been greatly increased during the present season. The two courts, one at 2nd and York, known as the Toussaint teunis court, and the other at 32nd and Mar- ion, known as the Marion Racket club, decided some time ago to play a championship match to decide who the real champions were. The Marion street court was decid- ed upon as the place to hold the con- test and Labor day the time. Bach court held its eliminations, with the result that Adams was to represent the Toussaint and McKnight the Mar- jon in singles, and Oscar and Hugh Smith the Toussaint and Parks and Earl Smith the Marion in doubles. The singles was far the better con- test, keeping the rooters and specta- ‘tors almost continually applauding. McKnight played a good, in fact at times a brilliant game. He seldom served doubles and made many re- ‘turns of real championship quality, but little Jimmy Adams was steady. and cool and shaded him in almost every game. Where McKnights was. good, Jimmy was better, and when McKnight got brilliant, Adams seem- ed to have gotten a little more bril- liant and won three straight sets and the pennant for the city champion- ship singles. Hugh and Oscar Smith had little trouble disposing of Parks and Earl Smith in the doubles. One, two, three, and another championship pen- nant had been added to the Toussaint club. = At 2:30 in the afternoon a large. enthusiastic crowd assembled at the Toussaint court to witness the play- ing of the consolation singles and doubles. Albert Robinson for the Marion, Denver's far famed tennis champion, who would have been in the cham- pionship game had conditions per- mitted, was pitted against Hugh Smith, an unknown quantity, The East Siders had placed their hope in “AL” to save the day for their court and he went into the game confident that he would not disappoint them. The Harmonites had nothing but confidence in “Hughey” because they ‘knew what a remarkable player he is. ‘From the time that Al shot the first ball across the net until the last play ait was excitement. The first two ‘sets were won by Hughey and then he weakened and Al took the nex two. It was then that excitement ran the highest, the rooters on either side shouting themselves hoarse for their man. Hughey settled down in the fifth and came back at Al with a vene eance and won the set and the pen- nant. The Harmonites went wild with joy and all but carried the vic tor about on their shoulders. To give an idea of the excitement. a long funeral procession passed dur ing the said excitement and the writ- er bas not yet found the second per son who saw it. When a funeral pro cession can pass a crowd of colored people without being seen, you know there must be something doing. It was the most beautiful tennis contest ever staged in Denver and with the proper backing these tw« boys could be sent across the cont nent taking championships as they £0. So far,. with every honor gone Gatewood took Al with him in the consolation double to see if he could not redeem his club, and Adams and Oscar Smith lost the only game o! the day for their court. Gatewoot played wonderful tennis; the gibes of “Pa” and “Grandpa” from the oppos ing rooters seemed to spur him on tc victory. He and Al won three straight sets, taking with them a pennant each. ‘True sportsmanship by players and spectators marked all of these con tests, nothing of an unpleasant nature happening to mar the day. Thouz! he lost, Albert Robinson comes in fo special mention as a true sport, wit! every courtesy of the court. “FL A. G. NOTICE, LADIES.

One of the Best Posted Men In His State—Close Student and a Musical Genius. Tuscaloosa, Ala.—Sixteen years president of the State Baptist Young People's union convention of Alabama and fifteen years teacher in the public school of Tuscaloosa, Ala., is the record of Professor Benjamin H. Barnes, A. M., one of the most noted educators in the south and a man of rare ability. In the case of Professor Barnes merit alone has been his guide and the cause of his promotion from time to time and has placed him in the front rank among the young people in this section of the country. He has made his way in his own home town because it was in this place where he was born and it was here where he got his foundation for an education, and he owes much of his inspiration and progress to his father, Professor Jeremiah Barnes, one of the oldest educators in the south and who has been principal of the school here for many years. That is, Professor Barnes started the educational work among the people in this section of the country, and, while he was not principal of the school at the opening, yet he has held that position for twenty-five years, and he had much to do with the laying of the educational foundation for his worthy son. He has taken work from the University of Chicago through correspondence and has a fine library, where he PETER H. HARRIS PROFESSOR B. H. BARNES. spends much of his idle time in digging out information. He is regarded today as one of the best posted young men in the state. "Serve" has been his motto, and he has never lost an opportunity to serve his people or any one needing his service. He is a Christian, has been since a small boy, and has been active both in church and Sunday school. His main forte has been with the young people. They have recognized his worth by placing him at the head of their convention, where he could render good service. The First African Baptist church of Tuscaloosa knows his worth because he has for almost a quarter of a century been at the head of the Sunday school as superintendent, rendering good service. They have a well organized Sunday school, due to his work. Then, too, he has been organist of the church for nearly twenty years and is considered one of the best pipe organ men in the south. Professor Barnes is considered a musical genius in Alabama. His talent has been used for the development of his young people. He is serving his church and his race, placing the racial needs first. In everything that tends to develop and uplift the race this young man takes an active part. He is connected with a number of fraternal societies and benevolent organizations and is active in them all. During the summer, while not in the schoolroom, he devotes his time to the insurance business, being connected with the Union Central Relief company of Birmingham. He is kept busy all the time. He is manager of the Tuscaloosa office. Many honors have been given him in his state and his native home. Two years ago Selma university recognized his worth in the literary world by conferring on him the degree of master of arts, one well merited by the young educator. The First African Baptist church is, indeed, a large church. Professor Barnes is one of the trustees and was chairman of the building committee when a structure at a cost of $25,000 was erected by them. Not only is he the secretary of the trustee board and financial secretary of the church, but he is one of the deacons as well. In fact, he is in everything that means progress for that church and his people. He has assisted a large number of young people through school. BIG MEETING OF PYTHIAN KNIGHTS Many Thousands Attend Session at Ohio Capital. GOVERNOR WILLIS' WELCOME Supreme Lodge Receives Remarkable Tribute From State and City Officials In Speeches Filled With Words of Encouragement—Praise For Chairman Robert B. Barcus and Committees. Columbus, O.-The sessions of the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias, recently held in this city, were preceded by a public reception at the Chamber of Commerce auditorium with a packed house that greeted Governor Frank B. Willis, whose speech the race cannot forget very soon. It was one of the strongest and most outspoken utterances for the rights of man, irrespective of race, creed or color, we have heard. He was applauded again and again. He has endeared himself to the colored people of Columbus. If he continues to stand for the rights of the race in the future as he has in the past there will be nothing too good for Governor Willis that the colored people can do for him in the United States. Mr. Robert B. Barcus, the chairman of the local committee, one of the leading attorneys at the Columbus bar, deserves great credit for the success of the arrangements. He first introduced Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green, who told his audience that he was not expected to make a speech and that they usually had preliminaries, and he happened to be among the preliminaries. He said: "Eighteen years ago the supreme session met in Columbus, and the lieutenant governor was the best we could get. I am glad we have got back to Columbus and are big enough to be welcomed by the governor of Ohio." Governor Willis was then introduced by Mr. Barcus in his usual fine flow of language that bespoke of his masterly attainments and very apt and felicitously referred to the governor as the next president of the United States. The governor said in part: "I was prepared to stand for all the nice things that your chairman stated, all but his last statement about the presidency, which knocked the pins from under me. I am very grateful to your chairman for what he was good enough to say relative to the position that has been taken in this state by this administration concerning the production of certain photo plays. I should not have mentioned the matter here except that the chairman has alluded to it. but since he has referred to it I take this opportunity to say that so long as I have any influence with this administration there will not be produced in the state of Ohio any photo plays that are calculated to reflect upon any class of our citizens. As the chairman has very properly stated, it is entirely proper for the races to live together in peace and harmony, but it is not possible if we allow the production upon the stage of picture plays of this character, and I do not propose to stand for it." Hon, George J. Karb, mayor of Columbus, was introduced by the chairman. In appropriate words he extended a cordial welcome to the Knights and visiting friends and recommended that they should visit the engineering works recently installed by the city before leaving the city and have explained to them in detail the operation of these plants. He further declared that the Knights of Pythias and the members of the Court of Calanthe and visitors were welcome to the city in its entirety, and if there was anything they desired to call upon him and the governor and they would both see that they got it, which remark was received with great applause. It was stated by many who have attended the supreme session and encampment for years that never before in the history of the encampment has there been such hospitality extended them as it was in Columbus by both white and colored citizens. All of the public buildings were decorated profusely with American flags, and also the cluster lights on all of the principal streets were decorated. The three daily papers gave unlimited space to the publication of news items relating to the supreme session and encampment. The Ohio State Journal, the leading and only morning paper published in this city, contained a leading editorial under the caption of "The Pythian Knights." The convention was a success in every particular. The executive committee, consisting of Robert B. Barcus, chairman; W. H. Woods, vice chairman; J. W. Harris, secretary; Dr. W. A. Method, treasurer, and W. H. Ferguson, corresponding secretary, assisted by W. L. Anderson of Cincinnati, deserves great credit for the manner in which it conducted the convention, for it has been stated by the chairman that there will be no bills left unpaid. Mr. Isaac Farley, a member of the general committee, deserves much credit for the manner in which he was able to secure water and light facilities for the camp ground. There were in attendance during the supreme session, including the 5,000 men in camp, about 20,000 people during the week of the encampment. All of the officers of the supreme lodge were re-elected.

Son of Pioneer Religious Worker In Empire State of the South Makes Wonderful Progress as Educator and Methodist Clergyman — Member of Several Noted Fraternal Societies. Plains, Ga.-Georgia has given to the race many strong and able men in state and church. They have been heard from in all sections of the country. In the rank of young men is to be found one of the brightest pulpit orators, ministers and general leaders in the person of the Rev. William D. Johnson, who was born at Glasgow. Thomas county, Ga., Nov. 15, 1869. He is the son of a minister, one of the pioneers of the A. M. E. church work in Georgia, the Rev. Andrew J. Johnson. Young Johnson was placed in school at an early age and pursued his course of study for several terms in the schools of his native county. His father died when he was fourteen years of age, leaving to young Johnson the care of a mother and four younger children. William D. Johnson taught in the public schools of Georgia for quite a number of years. He was licensed as an exhorter in April, 1887, by the Rev. W. H. Powell at Waycross, Ga., licensed as a preacher in JOHN H. BURTON W. D. JOHNSON, D. D. October, 1887, by the Rev. J. B. Lofton at McDew, Ga., and recommended for admission into the Georgia annual conference in December, 1889, by the Rev. W. O. P. Sherman. He was ordained a deacon by Bishop W. J. Gaines in 1891 and as an elder by Bishop Abraham Grant in 1893. The Rev. Mr. Johnson has served the following charges during his eventful career as a minister: Westonia mission, 1889; district superintendent Thomasville district, 1890; Dawson mission, 1891-2; Cuthbert circuit, 1893; Blakely station, 1894-5; Arlington circuit, 1896-7; Albany station, 1898-9; presiding elder Bainbridge district, 1900-1-2-3; American station, 1904-5; presiding elder Thomasville district, 1906-7; presiding elder Columbus district, 1908; St. James' station, Columbus, Ga., 1909-10-11; presiding elder Cuthbert district, 1912-13-14-15. He was elected as delegate to the general conferences of 1900, 1904, 1908, 1912; delegate to the ecumenical conference of 1911; served on the church extension board 1904-8; on the missionary board 1912-16. He was assistant secretary of the general conference of 1000-4; chief secretary general conference of 1006-12; secretary of the Georgian conference, 1804-5-6; secretary of southwest Georgia conference, 1898-1915. Dr. Johnson was secretary of the trustee board of the Morris Brown university 1904 to 1915. He had the degree of D.D. conferred upon him by Morris Brown college. He is a prominent and active member of the following fraternal organizations of Georgia: A. F. and A. M., G. N. O. of O. F., K. of P., S. C. of B., American Woodmen, S. O. A., Q. P. N., I. O. O. C., H. H. of R. and Eastern Star. He is the founder and president of the board of trustees of the Johnson Home Industrial college, a school for the education of colored youth. He is very prominent as a public speaker and eagerly sought after on anniversary occasions. The Rev. Dr. Johnson enjoys the reputation of being one of the best secretaries the race has produced. He is being prominently mentioned as a candidate for episcopal honors at the next general conference of the A. M. E. church in 1916. The delegates of West Africa will ask him to consent to succeed Bishop Heard. Dr. Johnson is well known throughout the state and by his fidelity and manly bearing has won a host of friends. He is well qualified for higher episcopal honors. He has, in the common parlance, delivered the goods, as may be seen from his record as outlined above. His interest in the various secret and benevolent organizations is of the most substantial sort. GOING FAST!

Recent Outbreaks of Lawlessness Disgrace to Nation, Says Boston Traveler. Under the caption "Georgia Lynch Law and the South" the Boston Traveler in an editorial in its issue of Wednesday, Aug. 18, says: "Georgia's latest outbreak of savagery and blood lusting, the lynching of Leo Frank, making at least nine lynchings that have taken place in that state so far this year, is quite enough to challenge the nation's attention and make it ask. 'Are the people of Georgia fit to be trusted with the task of governing themselves? "But, while the lynching spirit seems to be rampant and constant in Georgia, most of the southern states are tarred with the same stick that morally debauches 'the Empire State of the South.' The universal loyalty and faithfulness with which the Negroes protected the women of the Confederacy during the years of the civil war were forgotten when Abraham Lincoln set them free and left them at the mercy of their late masters, who were embittered because of the defeat they had suffered at the hands of the north. "No excuse for inflicting punishment was overlooked. Everything was done to show that the Negro released from boudage was a menace to society and that the north had made a great mistake. One particular and terrible crime was seized upon as a justification for inflicting sudden punishment upon its perpetrator. That was worked to the limit and still is. But it failed to offer enough holidays for the blood lusters, and so it has come to pass that Negroes are lynched for the most trivial of alleged offenses, many of which they never commit. "Most of the thirty-five lynchings reported this year have been due to alleged thefts of cotton or hogs or hens. Furthermore, as the lynching habit grows it takes less account of the color of the victims than it used to. Of the thirty-five lynchings reported this year eleven have been white men. Where is this blood lust to stop? Should lynchings longer be considered the 'business' of the states indulging in them? The standing of the nation is lowered before the eyes of the world because of them. "Is it not time for the whole nation to note the dangerous and humiliating trend of things and to say to Georgia and other bloodthirsty states. 'You must adopt the ways of civilized lands?' And is it not time, if this demand passes unheeded, to enforce it by federal power?"
