Denver Star

The Denver Star Has The Largest Circulation Among Colored People. Get Wise and Advertise The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR Number 106 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 2, 1915 FIVE CENTS A COPY From Memphis, Tenn., comes the news that a colored woman, Fannie Sheppard, of 1244 Latham street, while walking with two companions, was shot by a brutal policeman. The police ambulance was called and the attendants drove away when they found the colored woman bleeding profusely, as they said they were afraid shewould "bloody the car." Miss Sheppard staunched the flow of blood until she was so, and bled to death in the alley where she fell. It is said that the three policemen have been suspended, pending an investigation. Mayor Wilson Ballard of the Liberian frontier force has resigned after three years' service and has been succeeded by Major William F. York Capt. E. T. Hawkins has resigned and returned to the United States. Young colored men of education, military traieing and physical fitness can secure appointment to this force by writing Major Chas. Young, at Monrovia. THE AMERICAN WOODMEN "LOG ROLLING." Denver Camp No. 1 American Woodmen at its regular meeting Thursday night September 23, perfected plans and completed arrangements for a "LOG ROLLING" to be held at Nippon hall Thursday October 14, 1915. The chief object of this meeting is to further increase our membership and furnish an opportunity for our members to exchange fraternal greetings. Great interest is being manifested by all officers and members. Many applicants have already been reported and the outlook is most gratifying. The dispensation of $2.50 will close after this meeting and those wishing to join are urged to take the advantage of this low rate. When the dispensation will have closed the admission fee exclusive of the examining fee will be $5.00. Our meeting last Thursday night was a splendid one. Of a membership of nearly one hundred, less than twenty per cent was absent, I am sure it will be interesting to our Denver members to state briefly the progress our Order made during the past quarter. The month of July, August and September constitute the dullest period of the year so far as insurance is concerned, notwithstanding that fact during the months just mentioned, we added to our membership roll nearly three thousand members, representing an increase of a little less than one million dollars of insurance. Our tall membership campaigns begin October 1st, with prospects for great results. THE AMERICAN WOODMEN AT COLORADO SPRINGS During the past two weeks Mr. H. J. York, one of the efficient clerks and stenographers in the office of the Supreme Camp in Denver, has been soliciting members and laying the foundation for organizing a camp in Colorado Springs.

More About Haiti's Miss Theodora Holly, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, sub-preceptress of schools and vice president of the local association of teachers, in the following letter concludes her statement concerning the recent occupation of Haytien territory by American troops. The first letter was published in THE AGE of September 16. Miss Holly makes a strong argument for the Haytien people and criticises severely the alleged actions of some of the American troops. This country has need of missionaries, true courageous and devoted. Too many of those that have come here so far have descended to the level of the political and mercenary agitators, instead of trying to raise the people to a higher standard of civic morality and abnegation. Haiti has had to work out her own salvation, poisoned oftner than aided by those whose very profession and mission called them to point hdr to higher things. In spite of them, a slower teacher, bitter experience, has been at work enlightening her judgement and forming in her a national conscience that the recent crucial events (the American invasion) seem to have quickened into life. It would be too much to affirm that the nobler ideals that this indicates have equally matured in all the individual consciences that go to the forming of the great national organ. The presence of the American forces, had they taken and kept a friendly attitude, would have been appreciated and welcomed for the security it gave, just as any reasonable-minded parent would feel grateful to the passing stranger for disarming an unruly and passionate child who, h bloody razor, was blindly mutitating all comrades within his reach. The execution of General V. G. Sam was no worse a crime than those committed almost daily by the American mob, and without the provocation that resulted in the execution of the Haitien President. It is more than probable that the reported to have ordered the massacre of the prisoners—over two hundred in number; that, owing to the anarchy that reigned, their mutilated and bloody corpses had to be borne, uncovered, to their different homes, and hastily prepared for immediate burial; that there was hardly a block that had not its victim in the lot—one can imagine to what pitch of frenzied indignation the relatives and the friends of the victims were worked up. It is more probable than the sanguinary propensity which dictated the wholesale butchery of the prisoners, and all the other similar instances in the history of this nation is but a direct outcome of our impious white ancestry. The theory is scientifically tenable. Some one has said that self criticism is a sign of progress. It is remarkable that a strong tide of national self-criticism has coincided with the centennial of our existence as a people, as if the bane of the cursed strain having well-nigh spent itself through the four successive generations, we had reached at last a turning point and were about to begin to be our normal selves. What a pity that such a grand and legitimate hope should be thwarted and that the infant nation, scarce freed from the former taint should have again, perhaps, to absorb elements destined to retard her normal evolution. Did not America owe it to herself to be a grand and generous sister to the little Haitien republic? Did she not owe it to herself to lend, as circumstances might require, a guiding aid protecting hand instead of bullying and brow-beating the feeble nation? For however she may choose to ignore it officially, nothing will ever wipe out the historical fact that, while yet in the fetters of slavery, a battalion, nine hundred strong, went forth from the ranks of this people and gave signal aid in the conquest of American Independence. If America required further incentive to magnanimity could she not recall the conduct of the blacks during the was of secession? During the great civil war when the legions of the South marched against the Northern heroes, the former had no alternative but to leave their fortune, their wives and daughters and helpless infants to the care of the very people, whose social, economic and political degradation they went forth to consolidate, at the cost of their very life-blood. And that martyr-race, as debonair and guiltless as the Great Martya of Golgotha, at the peril of their lives, and against their every personal interest, proved faithful to the strange and sacred trust. For all these reasons, Haiti cannot conceive of the powerful American Republic disarming a child-nation, binding its feeble limbs, then, at the point of the bayonet, demanding her fortune and cer obedience, and calling it friendliness and philanthropy. it piracy even, but do not call it friendliness, nor term it warfare. Did America avoid Japan and Germany only to demonstrate her strength on the little African pygmy of the Antilles? No, that cannot be! Haiti refuses to believe that the American people can knowingly sanction such a deed, or their government perpetrate it, for there must be, within her borders, souls noble enough to feel that:— "He triumps ingloriously who vanquishes without pefil." Therefore, I send you this appeal, hoping that because of our common origin and destiny, you will endeavor to present the true situation before the public mind, lest the American Eagle forever stain its fair renown, with such a shameful victory. DENVER, GOLORADO, SATURDAY, OCT. 2, 1915 Huntington, L. I., N. Y. Cornelius Bethlemen, proprietor of a restaurant on New York avenue, will have to defend in the Supreme Court of Suffolk county four suits for damages in the sum of $500 each, for refusing service to Negroes. The suits are filed by the Rev. William H. Williams, pastor of the Bethel A. M. E. church, G. Raymond Squires, a deacon of that church; Henry Brewer, a local preacher, and James Smith. It is reported that two other similar actions are in course of preparation, the parties concerned being from Centerport and Northport. The fact that business men in Huntington were inclined to discriminate against Negro patronage was brought out by Mr. Squires, who stated that deliberate insults were tendered Negro patrons in various places, in one place a drinking glass being smashed in front of the colored customer, after the men had finished an ice cream soda. The suits filed against Bethlemen are for the purpose of securing civil rights and to put a stop to race discrimination in this village. There is a strong sentiment among the most prominent white citizens against race discrimination, and many of them have expressed themselves on the subject. Interviews with the Rev. Charles S. Grao, pastor of the Huntington M. E. church; the Rev. J. Jeffrey Johnstone, pastor of the First Presbyterian church; the Rev. Charles E. Cragg, rector of St. John's Episcopal church; Hiram A Baylis, editor of the Long Islander, and other leading men, developed a strong sentiment against the action of Bethlemen and others who would practice discrimination. States made by these men to the Brooklyn Eagle were as follows; The Rev. Charles S. Gray, pastor of the Huntington M. E. church—"It seems to me that the case, from a business standpoint, is a little different from any other. I would not object to having a colored man eat at my own table, as long as I thought he was a man, for instance, the Rev. Mr. Williams. Whether the it piracy even, but do not call it fare. Did America avoid Japan and strate her strength on the little tilles? No, that cannot be! H the American people can know their government perpetrate it, borders, souls noble enough to "He triumps ingloriously who Therefore, I send you this a of our common origin and desti sent the true situation before the ican Eagle forever stain its fair ful victory. Call it injustice, call it oppression, call it despotism, call THEODORA HALLY. catering to the colored race would destroy a man's business is a different question, but I am in sympathy with the colored race in that they should have all their rights." The Rev, J. Jeffrey Johnstone, pastor of the First Presbyterian church—"I have always been strongly in favor of treating the colored people with all the fairness that they have a right to, as citizens of the United States, and it has always seemed to me stupid to treat them as if they were aliens and worse. In the interests of the country, that sentiment against them should, as far as possible, be removed." PREPARING FOR SERVICE Miss C. L. Duke and F. B. Washington to Study Social Science. New York, Sept. 28.-The National League on Urban Conditions among colored people has announced that the two "fellows" of the league working in New York city this year are Mr. Forrester B. Washington of West Medford, Mass., and Miss Carrie L. Dukes of Augusta, Ga. Mr. Washington is a graduate of Tufts college and has been pursuing graduate work at Harvard university. Miss Dukes is a graduate of Spellman seminary and Morehouse college, Atlanta, Ga. These two young people are registered at the School of Philanthropy and Columbia university for advanced work in the social sciences and will receive their training and experience in practical work in connection with the district offices of the Charity Organization society and the field work of the league. At the expiration of a year's course of training Mr. Washington will be a candidate for his master's degree from Columbia, and both of the "fellows" will be prepared to take up some line of social welfare work in New York or some other city to which they may be called for service. The league appoints two "fellows" for resident study in New York city each year. Applicants are not restricted to any schools or communities. The best available persons are selected by a special committee which passes upon the applications early in the spring.

BROOKS' LIBRARY OPENED Constructive Work of St. Mark's Church in New York City Church, New York, Commended. On Monday, Sept. 20, the Brooks' Library of Negro Literature at the St. Mark's M. E. church, West Fifty-third street, New York, Rev. William H. Brooks, D. D., minister, was opened to the public with an interesting musical and literary program. A unique feature of the gathering was a number of well rendered solos by prominent ministers of New York city and vicinity, interspersed with addresses by noted divines and a number of addresses commending the object of the promoters of the library scheme. It is proposed to make this library a headquarters in New York city, where accurate information respecting the achievements of members of our race in various lines of endeavor may be obtained. At the conclusion of the rendition of a most excellent program the judges appointed to pass upon the merits of the various musical and literary productions, Attorney Wilfred H. Smith, Lawrence T. Hunt and J. E. Robinson, retired and subsequently returned with their verdict in favor of Revs. H. W. Arnett and Gilbert Wilson, soloists, and J. E. Bruce "Grit," whose paper, "Making History," was awarded a cash prize. Church News BETHLEHEM BAPTIST CHURCH. 3148 Lafayette. Phone Y 7647. REV. A. E. REYNOLDS. PASTOR. Sunday School, 9:45 a. m.

Residence, 2356 Humboldt St. The stroke which fell upon Zion in the sudden taking off of two of its most prominent and active members, within a few days of each other, rendered a blow, the weigst of which will be felt for a good many days to come. Sister Wallace and Sister Stewart were each present on the first Sunday evening in September to bid the pastor Godspeed as he left for the convention and to take a vacation, which was cut short in the course of a week by the death of both. How wonderful God works! How sudden the summons! But though coming all unexpected it found each prepared. Following this week the auxiliary work which was suspended during the month of September will begin activity again. The Women's Bible Class is called next Thursday afternoon at 2:30, the usual hour. This meeting will be followed by the Mission Circle at 3:30. Every woman in the community is welcome. The Teacher Training Class is called Thursday evening at 8:00 o'clock. The pastor hopes to see every member present. The evening will be given to review work. The Zion Fellowship Band will meet at 8:00 o'clock Friday evening. It is hoped that every visiting list will be turned in for reports and marking. The Sunday School Rally Day is set for the fifth Sunday in this month. The days intervening are to be used in campaigning to bring in every straggler and to force the enrollment to a higher mark. Every element in our church and school is to be set at work to secure this end. The standard has been set for three hundred and fifty present on the 31st. Let everyone pull together! The past five evenings have been spent by the faithful in prayer. These special meetings have brought great good to the church and indicate that we may look forward to quickened interest in the coming activities. Our B. Y. P. U. services, held at 6:30 Sunday evenings, are becoming a real inspiration. The program rendered by the boys last Sunday was much to their credit. In this work our young people are to take the lead.

Last Wednesday night at 7 o'clock Miss Samira Harris and Mr. Lemuel R. Owens, very distinguished young people of this city, were married at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. George Morrison, 834 Fox St., in the presence of a large number of friends of the contracting parties.

BOULDER NOTES Many of the Boulderites came to Denver to attend the sessions of the Colorado Annual Conference held at Shorter A. M. E. church. The Rev. J. W. Rodgers and wife left Tuesday for their new pastorate in La Junta, Colo. These two persons have made many friends during their stay in Boulder. It is hoped that the health of Mr. and Mrs. Rodgers will be much improved by the lower altitude of La Junta. An excellent and appreciative audience greeted the new pastor of Allen chapel on Sunday. We feel very much favored to have the Rev. A. Wayman Ward, B. D., to come into our midst as one willing to serve the church and the race. Mr. Ward is a young man well prepared to begin so great a work, having graduated from Yale University this year after having completed the courses at Denver and Wilberforce Universities. We predict for him a great life of influence and service to his church. Rev. Ward was entertained during his stay in Boulder at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Gibson. Mrs. W. W. Bryant is much improved at this writing from a severe attack of illness immediately following her visit to Denver to attend the annual conference. Sister A. Harris of Allen chapel is confined to her home as the result of a severe fall. The wife and daughter of Mr. James of the S. A. E. fraternity are expected to return home from an extended trip to the great Northwest in a few days. Messrs. Allen, Burchalter, Evans and Smith presented the Rev. J. W. Rodgers with a beautiful leather hand bag as a token of the high esteem they have for him. Such kindnesses make the lives of the servants of the people very pleasant. Mr. Wharton, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Gibson, returned Tuesday from an extended stay in Price, Utah. He looks the very picture of health. The public schools are now well under way. There is a slight increase in the attendance of Negro children this year, with five girls and one boy in the high school. It is to be regretted that none has as yet enrolled in the university.

ABLE LEADER ‘IN 00D MOVEMENTS Success of Or Charles E. Bentley of Chicago. MAN OF RARE MENTAL GRASP Chicago.—One of the most striking figures at the recent golden anniver- sary of the Illinois Dental society, held at Hotel La Salle in this city, was Dr. Charles E. Bentley, who has by bis ability and skill as a practitioner won a place in the front ranks of his pro- fession. Born in Ohio and educated in the public schools, intermediate and high, of his native city, Cincinnati, Dr. Bentley moved to Chicago, where he completed his education at Northwest- ern university and was graduated in 1887 from the Chicago College of Den- tal Surgery with the degree of doctor of dental surgery. He at once entered upon the practice of his profession in his new home, giv- ing all of his spare time to his studies and experiments. He soon became s0 proficient that his fame spread abroad, and patients came from near and far to get the benefit of his skillful manip- ulations. He was one of the first den: tists to use bypnotic suggestion forthe alleviation of pain, and this added greatly to bis success. At the meeting of the Ilinois Dental society held in 1896 Dr. Bentley reail s paper on “New Outlooks In Dentistry,’ in which he made the following sug: gestion. couched in prophetic words: “If the public schools will respond to the growing demand for a larger know. edge of the structure and work of the human frame we may confidently hope for the Installation of competent den- tists in the schoolroom, who may make examinations of the mouths of children and advise them as to the correction of Pathological conditions that may exist. It would also afford a fruitful source for the collection of data upon a wide Tange of subjects, the importance of which cannot be overestimated.” Replying to Dr. Bentley, Dr. C. B. Rohland dissented, fearing that the public would not take kifdly to dental examinations in public schools. For- tunately Dr. Robland’s fears were not well grounded. The public has taken kindly to publi¢ school dental examiua. tions, and the public spirited work of the profession in this field ts fully ap- preciated and approved by the masses. Two years later the Odontographie so- clety, at the suggestion of Dr. Bentley, instituted an tuvestigation into the condition of the mouths and teeth of the children of the public schoo!s. One year later Dr, Bentley submitted his Teport, which was the basis of future work along this line, and today dental examinations are being made in nearly all of the public schools of the country. If priority of action counts for any thing Dr, Bentley is the father of oral hygiene, which nowadays claims so much public and professional attention: The Odontographic society of Chicago was organized by Dr. Bentley in 1888, and he was elected its first president. In 1903 the society gave what was Practically a great dental congress. ‘There were 3,000 members of the pro- fession and 1,000 dental students tn attendance. The real soul of the great guthering was Dr. C. E. Bentley, who by his devotion and painstaking efforts made it a success. He bas been a Mberal coutributor to the Iterature of both medicine and dentistry, and bis papers, which have been read before state, national and international dental societies, have always merited the high ext prise, Dr. Bentley Is one of the few den tate who have been succeseful inthe treatment of prorrhea, the most diffi: cult affection with which the profes ston has to contend. The manipula tion of the instruments requires the erenttext mantial dexterity and delleate sense of touch, He number amon nix patients many of the wealthiest and most promhient ettizens of the rountee and Ix one of the dozen or ae Chica densts who count thelr ays mint incomes In five fures Th bite year De Rentley haw attaty sd ogrent prom’ sce tw elvte affairs and his advice 1s eagerly sought by those who are endeavoring fo better the conditions of Lumanity in general. For More than twenty years he has been secretary of Provident hospital. He was first president of the Equal Opportunity league of Chicago. He is a charter wember of the directorate of the National Association For the Ad- vansemeut of the Colored People. an organization which includes some of the mo:t prominent people of the coun- try in its membership. He bas the gift of oratory and 1s a forceful, logical ‘and Convincing speaker. In 18S Dr. Bentley was married to ‘Miss Viorence Lewis, who was for ‘many years the Iterary editor of the Philadeipiia Dally Press. a woman of rare attuinments, and their married lite ‘has been very happy. In October, 1914, Dr. Beutley, at the special invitation of the Winnebago County (Il) Dental so- ‘ciety. delivered an address before that body on “Oral Hygiene.” ‘The same afternoon, at the request of the board of educution, he addressed 1,000 stu- dents 0° the Rockford bigh school on “Paul !vurence Dunbar.” Dr. }ientley’s new dental offices are located! in the Marshall Field building, overlooking Lake Michigan, where on clear (ays one may look across the lake to the Michigan and Indiana shores. The dental appliances in the offices are coniplete in every detail. A man of learmit.. polished in manner, having entree (0 the highest social circles and being ix tonch with many people of great influence, he has been able to do effective work in fighting prejudice against the colored people. Single bande] and alone he has nipped many obnoxious schemes in the bud. Many wronzs have been righted effectively. but quietly and without any brass band accoupaniment. When anything great in the repression of race prejudice has been accomplished in Illinois and, peo- ple ure wondering how it was done the chunces are ten to one that Dr. Bentley is the man who did it Dr. lientley is at the head of his pro fession. He is not simply a great col ored dentist, but a great American den- tist, Tis success has not been circum- seribe by lines of color. He thinks Americin, feels American, acts Amert- can und demands and receives treat- ment ss un American. He believes } that all men born in America are Americsins and is opposed to the use of the word “Negro” to describe the col- oted Tonle of tye country. He is con vineed that it not logical and Its use [is fniinicn! to the welfare of the repub- lie. He looks forward to the day when there will be uo German-Americans or Frenc!-Ainericans or Italian-Ameri- cans or Afro-Americans or any other hyphenated variety and when all racial distinctions shall have disappeared. When the National Association For the Aivancement of Colored People ‘was orzanized it was largely due tc his efforts that the word “Negro” was not made a part of the official title of tbe osganization, His career should be an ingptration to every colored youth It teaebes tne lesson that it is not nec essary, that {t is even shortsighted and wrong, to limit one’s activities to the boundaries of the color line. It proves that there are no barriers which study. determination, constant effort, ability and skill will not batter down. JOSEPH L. JONES EXPLAINS.

Whether you like a fact or individual or not, just give him his just reward. We were gratified to know that some one in Denver had been alert and brave enough to have such an ordinance introduced before our commissioners for their fair consideration. Denver to defeat this nefarious scheme of repression needs to be solidly united and that means that some of our self-called leaders must bow low enough as to forget themselves and think of the interest of the race, just long enough to present a solid front to the enemy. Men of common sense, good poise, respectable and courteous and intelligent and manly enough to successfully cope with the situation, must handle this affair. Bull dozers and cowards stay away. The Star is wondering what the Ministerial Alliance will do to prevent a play which is aimed directly at the Negro and his bread and butter. We wonder if the white Ministerial Alliance, if properly approached, would not take some action. Why not try it, ministers? Women's organizations, you can be of help in this fight for your children's future welfare. This play is designed, created and produced to make and increase Negro haters of people now friendly. For God's sake, for your sake and for the sake of the peace and harmony of the inter-racial relations in this community, get busy and stop this trouble breeder. We print an extract from the Denver Times herewith. "The Birth of a Nation" is coming to Denver. This is a certainty, but it is not as yet known just when it will be here, although it will probably be in a couple of months. This picture is undoubtedly one of the best ever made—it ranks among the highest in photodramatic art, and was produced at a tremendous cost. It is a picture that no one can afford to miss seeing, and most every one is not satisfied with seeing it once. With the two big pictures coming, "The Birth of a Nation" and "The Battle Cry of Peace," the Denver moving picture public has a treat in store.—Denver Sunday Times. Let us hope that this big daily, in which that big broad hearted, public spirited man is interested, Hon. Philip B. Stewart, does not know nor did he know the harm his publication has threatened the Negro. We believe him to be too fair and honest to do our race an injustice intentionally. "BIRTH OF A NATION" COMES TO DENVER. Denver Times Favors Play. The crisis has been reached. Action is necessary for the Negro to curtail the increasing prejudice which this hybrid race play is found to produce. The newspapers are beginning to herald its coming. The Star, the only real race paper in Denver, has been publishing articles of objections and reasons why the play should not be produced, as given by our best friends and observers. Have you kept your ammunition of defense, has your mutilion supply of shells of honor and self respect been constantly increased? If so, well and good. If not, then go to the public library, or state library at the Capitol and read the Denver Star files and get right. Write a letter to the editor of the Times, show him that to advertise that race hatred play would only add his strength toward stirring up strife between peaceful and honest citizens. Arouse your white friends for whom you work, get them interested to protest. Button hole and with your reasons gained from the Star convince them that if they are your friends and do not want such a riot as Philadelphia recently had, to aid you in suppressing that abominable film, a prodigy of lies and race hate. Let every Negro in Denver, men, women and even children, write a letter or postal card to the officials and editors of the News and Times. Get busy. Three cooks. Apply to Wm. Parks or Dr. C. D.

At Scott church Tuesday night the "Noble Outcast" was successfully presented by the Excelsior Dramatic club. The church was filled with well wishers of the players. The prize was won by Mrs. Lyles for selling tickets, and the flowers were given to Mr. Smith, although awarded by the judges to Miss Perry. She declined to accept the honor for her graceful acting. Mrs. J. J. Jackson, the manager of the club, and an understudy was forced at the last moment to take the part of the father and she discharged her part most excellently. The Excelsior club, which carried off high honors, will play for lodges, parties, churches, etc. See Mrs. J. J. Jackson, 3027 Marion St., for engagements at reasonable rates. Miss Perry was all smiles when she turned over to the trustees a neat sum and the club to which she belongs were her most loyal supporters and gave great praise after the play for her undertaking single handed.

THE SIN OF SILE THE SIN OF BILENCE To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. THE WIZARD OF CONCORD. Professor Frank Sanbern Values Free- dom More Highly Than Wealth. dom More Highly Than Wealth. Boston. — Professor Frank Sanborn of Concord, Mass., noted abolitionist and possibly the last of the men who became famous on account of the part they took against the slave trade in America, made a most timely speech to the delegates present at the recent session of the National Negro Business league held in this city. Mr. Sanborn received a most wonderful ovation when he arose to speak, for he is honored and revered by the colored citizens of Boston in a very marked degree. Mr. Sanborn said: "It has given me the greatest pleasure to hear these reports of the progress your people have made in the past fifteen years. But the feeling came over me as I sat on this platform as your guest that this is the time when perchance you may have use for advice from a very old man like me. "It has occurred to me that, as I heard to how great an extent some of you have progressed in getting material possessions, you should be warned that an accumulation of capital is as likely to be a vehicle for unrighteousness as it is for righteousness. I have in mind the coming to our city of Boston some months ago a moving picture exhibition whose exhibit was offensive and indecent in the eyes of all good people. I suppose more than $1,000,000 was behind its being made and exploited before the public. It was just such an accumulation of capital for unrighteousness as I before warned you of. So much money was represented, and of course that much power, that of the free press of Boston, which should have stood on the side of correcting such an offense against citizenship. There were but two papers outspokenly to protest against its continued exhibition. "I have been interested to hear what some of your men said who had profitably and shrewdly made-money in real estate and chiefly in the rise of real estate values. Real estate does many times increase in value, but invariably it is because the city in which it is located has grown. And, as you come to think of it, you must realize that it is you yourselves, in your own town, who produce the very thing that increases your real estate values, for the nicer your town and the more upright it is the more people will want to come to that town and make it their home. "I desire to bring to your attention a report of a conversation which took place between Abraham Lincoln and a friend of his named Gillespie, from Kentucky, which I believe has never appeared in print. The two friends meet some sixty years ago, and the talk naturally fell upon the subject of slavery. Mr. Lincoln said to his friend, 'I am terribly afraid this slavery will spread to my state of Illinois and from there all through the north. I will tell you what I think causes the spread of slavery more than anything else. If a man of means has his property in the form of securities and bank deposits perhaps nothing much of his fortune will be known. If, on the other hand, a man has two or three slaves to follow him about the young men are apt to be impressed by the evidence of his wealth and by the fact that what he wants he gets. It may be only his slaves who are doing the work, and it is from their ownership and their labors that he has come to have means.' "Your race, you remember, was treated merely as representing only property. Your race was indebted to the immortal Lincoln and in some part to those persons with whom I was associated all my life. It was due to these things that the time came when you were no longer considered to be property, but as a race whose men were just as much men and should be just as free as any other race of men." ELKS' GRAND LODGE MEETS. Annual Session Held in Chicago—Nutter Re-elected Grand Exalted Ruler. Chicago.—The Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World closed its sixteenth annual session recently in this city at Odd Fellows' hall after being royally received and highly entertained by Chicagoans, who understood how to treat "the best people on earth." The reports of the grand lodge showed a remarkable increase in the lodges and temples and a decided advancement in finances. The order is to be credited for standing as a unit for all Elks. There is no division in the ranks, and its era of prosperity under the administration of T. Gillis Nutter. G. E. R., and George E. Bates, G. 8., is a revelation. The parade, ball and reception brought the convention to a brilliant close, much to the credit of Great Lakes lodge and its local committee. Officers elected for the ensuing year are: T. Gillis Nutter, G. E. R., Charleston, W. Va.; George E. Bates, G. S. Jersey City, N. J.; James T. Carter, G. T. Richmond, Va.; C. W. F. Mechan, G. E. L. K.; Baltimore: George W. Holbert, G. E. L. K., Minneapolis, Minn.; H. Adolph Howell, G. E. L. K. New York; W. Hopkins Johnson, G. I. G., St. Paul, Minn.; Dr. Stevens, G. O. G., Norfolk, Va.; Henry Chisman, G. Esq., Hampton, Va.; J. J. Jones, G. T. Chicago. Cleveland and Philadelphia entered the race for the next convention. Phil adelphia won, and the slogan is now "On to Philadelphia." Carney Post Wins Prize at Detroit. The William H. Carney Post, No. 46, Pittsburgh Veterans of Foreign Wars, won the silver loving cup at the recent encampment of the order held at Detroit.

Described by a Star Representative. Have you ever motored up to the top of « mountain, built a camp fire and cooked your dinner with only the canopy of heaven above you, on a besutitul moonlight Indian’ summer aight? Then you have never beheld or enjoyed all of nature’s grandeur. This treat was given a Star repre- sentative by Mr. and Mrs. Walter Pritchird Thursday evening of last week. Born and reared in an eastern soot-lcdimmed, noisy, bustling city ‘with no opportunity of viewing na- ture’s beautiful snow-capped moun- tains. canons, ete., is it any wonder that ‘he amazement was pitiful to be- hold. My delight knew no bounds. Les\ing Denver shortly after six felock, in Jessi than:an hour we were at the foot of Lookout mountain ready to ascend the beautiful winding roads to the peak. > Not the shadow of an accident to ourselves nor to others came to mar the peace and happiness of the trip. Our <pirits arose as we ascended the mountiin, unloading all care and worry at the foot of the beautiful in- cline We were enjoying something that mony could not buy. The rich could see 10 more beauty and grandeur in that mountain trip than we. Along the way We passed many autoists in cam} and a greeting was shouted back and forth, seemingly a sort of fraternal recognition prevailed among all travelers. ‘Time and time again we were com- pelle to pause to admire and marvel at the handiwork of nature in the canons and to praise the ingenuity of the train that engineered the rail- roais and driveways through these towering ranges. Looking back over Denver and Goliien, it seemed the earth in the far distance was studded with millions of stars, which seemed to twinkle, re- minding us of the school-day poem, “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.” ‘Arriving at the top of the moun- tain, another novelty and pleasure awaited us, in gathering the wood and building our camp fire to cook dinner. We found many others en- gaged in the same pastime and the Movntains rang with laughter and gonz, Over all the pretty moon kept vigil and gave us light. Our fire started, Mr. and Mrs. Pritchard unfolded a complete camp- ing outfit and we were soon ready to “pril” the steak and “bil” the coffee for dinner. Our appetites were whet- ted up by the long drive and we did ample justice to the juicy steaks and their many trimmings, prepared by Mrs. Pritchard whose culinary art 1s well known. Silver service and a butler could not have added anything to the en- joyment of this dinner. In fact we felt sorry for those who had to be tortured with such ceremony and pro- riety. Alusic and dancing were indulged MR ‘by a party of tourists and we looked on for a while, leaving the eak about 9:45, Our trip down was as delightful as the ascension. We ‘Stopped at the pretty spring house jand enjoyed a cool drink. The night [vas an ideal one, The weather was |warm, even on the mountain, a re- reaia breeze stirring the pines. We arrived in Denver about 11 o'clock, delighted with our evening’s outing. This trip is only one of many during this year Mr, and Mrs. Pritch- ra have enjoyed, as well as friends invited to share their pleasures. The Star representative will never forget the trip and in years to come will be found with her great grand- children gathered around her knee istening to the story of a beef stéak fy on Lookout mountain. cmM.s.

C, Morris of Heicna ‘as president, Rev. W. G. Parks, D D., Fhiladelphia, vice president; Prof.ssor R. B. Hudson, Selma, Ala. secre::ry; A. J. Stokes, Montgomery, Ala., treus- urer; C, H. Parrish, Loutaville, \xy., statistician; T. G. Ewing, Nashville. Tenn., attorney; M. M. Rodgers, La Grange, Tex., auditor. It was a 1cet ing fraught with many animosities. A faction headed by Rev, E. P, Jones attempted to capture the conyen'iou, und in the confusion Dr, Jones declared himself elected to the presidency and then went into court and got # in Junction against Revs. E. C. Morris, W ©. Parks, L. G. Jordan, P. J. Bryant, 8. E. Griggs and A. Barbour. ‘The same day the injunction was disso! ved ‘The convention has issued the ‘vl lowing statement: “The cause of the confusion’ w0ni- fested at the national Baptist con ven tion, Sept. 8 and 9 was the attempt and purpose of the convention to con (rol its publishing board, located at Nashville, Tenn. By reason of the peculiarity of the laws of Tennessee (his board eleets ity own members, a! though for many years the conven tion thought by electing {ts own mem vers in open session they really be came members of the board. To its great surprise, in the course of ‘ine it became known that no one was 2 member of the publishing board un less elected by the board itself. ‘that created distrust and susplclonyand the convention at once began to make ef forts to come in possession and cou trol of preperty that is really conven tion property. ‘The board, throuzh its secretary, defled the convention nd refused to allow the convention's «di tor to audit its books. “When the convention convene! in Chicago on Sept. 8 with tmpressive devotional services conducted by Revs | B. M. Cohron of St. Joseph. Mo.2a iD Willlams, Atlanta, Ga. and \. D Carter, Seattle, Wash., the program prepared by the executlve board of the convention was read. It was then that the faction opposing the conven tion started a confusion, healed by the Rev. Dr. Brooks of Sout Caro lina. ‘The resolution offered by Dr. Brooks provided for the transaction of business before the enrollment of the delegates, and ufter some consilerable discussion it was ruled out of order by President Morris. It was after thls ruling that a faction, with Dr EB. P Jones of Mississippi, attempted 10 take charge of the convention, “Great confusion followed, it being “possible to transact any business. A motion was made that the convention ‘stand adjourned until time for the afternoon session. ‘The motion was voted on and dechired carried by Pres ‘ident Morris. It was then Dr B, P Jones declared himself chairman and attempted to hold a convention.” At the time for the convention to meet tp the afternoon Dr. B.C. Morris. was there and attempted to call the com vention to order, but was prevented ‘py the disorderly crowd. Disorder war ‘kept up until the adjournment of the afternoon session “The second day's Session opened. but before doing so the enrollment com mittee and finance committee were sta tioned at the door, and no one Yas al lowed to enter the hall who was not a regular delegate, wearing a badge When the delegates were seated Dr Morris called the convention to order and after the opening devotions! “ery ices and the reading of the journal Dr Morris began the reading of his annual) address. It was in the midst of the reading of this uddress that Dr. B P.

Which He Claims Draws the Color Line In Its Work. In a recent issue of the New York Age Editor Fred R. Moore calls the at tention of the public and our race in particular to the attitude of some so called uplift movements in which pre} udice aguimst the colored people is practiced to an alarming degree. The Age points to the acts of one of these so called uplift movements and backs its opinion by quoting from an edi. torial written by Dr. Robert E. Jones. editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate at New Orleans. The statement of the Age is in part as follows: “Those who take leadership in the so called uplift movements would prob- ably be the first to deny that they en- tertain feelings of racial prejudice agninst the Negro people, yet it is a inutter of comment, more or less com- mon among thoughtful men of the race, that there is more race prejudice iu these so called uplift movements than among any other groups of peo ple. Tt is a strange thing that this race prejudice in. carrying forward these movements never manifests it self against the Germans as Germans. against Italians as Italians, against Poles as Poles oc against any other group of our allen population. But wherever the Negro, who js a native born eltizen, {s concerned Immediately race prejudice rears its ugly head, and the’ leaders in these uplift movements find themselves belpless—that is, too weak to undertake a straight out, stand up position in opposition to such racial prejudice! “Our attention has lately been called to the attitude and activities of the so called Anti-saloon league, one of these uplift movements, and its officers. It seems that most of their activities during the past six or elght years have been devoted to the south. ‘Taking ad- vantage of the disfranchising awa of that section, which exclude the Negro from voting, the officers of the Anti- saloon. league, so it is alleged, have gone to the southern white voters with the cunning plea that their fight for prohibition in the south ty not aimed so much at the whites as at the Negroes of the south. “Dr. Robert E. Jones, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate at New Orleans, Is one of the best known and one of the most unselfish lead ers of the Negro people. So flagrant was the prejudice shown by the repre- xentatlves of the Antl-saloon league in Loulsiana that Dr. Jones was moved to editorial protest agiinst the dis: criminations shown by the so called ‘flying squadron’ of the league. ‘The Negro people of Louisiana constitute hearly one-half of the population of the state. They were entirely ignored and spurued when the Antisaloon league launched {ts movement in Louisiana, “Not only 1s the Negro generally ex- cluded from all meetings held in the Interest of and by whites, but nothing was done to tie to the movement the influence of the colored people as repre: sented by their ministers nnd business men. In view of the prejudiced dis- position of the so called ‘flying squad- ton,’ Dr. Jones wrote in lis paper a fall statement, which Is called to the atteation of the Negro people that they may know what they have.to expect when they are dealing with such ‘up- lifters.’ ” Dr, Jones’ editorin! says emong other things: ¢ “Moreover, recognizing the situation we face in this city and In the south, the colored citizens of this city (New Orleans) made an effort to secure the services of at least one of these speak ers in order that the Negro population might be somewhat roused on the temperance question. The state super- intendent of the Antl-saloon league was written, the chajrman of the com Taittee in charge in New Orleang was written and other efforts were made. The Ministeria} alliance, composed of aN the colored ministers in the city, Appointed a special comtnittee to co- operate. No response came. “During the presence of the ‘fying squadron’ in the state the Toulsiana annual conference of the Methodist Episcopal church was in session in Alexandria, Bishop Napthall Luccock presiding. This conference bad upward of 200 ministers attending, with a lo- cal membership throughout the state of 18,000 and an additional constitu- ency of at lenst 20,000. At the time this conference wan In session a mem- ber of the ‘fying squadron’ was invited by- Bishop Luccock and the conference to addrews the body and agreed to fix ‘an hour that was convenient to the speaker, There was no effort to yield to this invitation, nor was there a re- fponse, ‘ “We reluctantly call attention to this matter because 1f we could be forgot ‘ten and absolutely ellminated and ‘thereby win the temperance fizht we See af Like ORM Stake okt aig te laath The Bankers International Life Assurance Company DENVER, COLORADO Capital Stock $100,000.00 Surplus 179,679.68 Partial list of Claims Paid: Name Amount Jaura J.

When you are neglected, or purposely set at naught, and you can smile inwardly, glorying in the slight, because thereby counted worthy to suffer with Christ—that is Victory. When your good is evil spoken of, when your wishes are crossed, your taste offended, your advice disregarded, and you take it all patiently, in loving silence—that is Victory. When you never care to record your own good deeds, or to itch after commendation, when you can truly love to be un- known—that 1s Victory. When “forgetting the things which are behind, and stretch ing forward to the things which are before, you press on to- ward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus"—that is Victory. When through faith in Christ, death and life are both alike to you, and to do His perfect will a delight to you—that is Victory. To put the on Lord Jesus Christ, and thus triumph over one’s self—THIS is the PERFECT Victory. BE PATIENT.

Long Company, of Chicago, has sent out the fol- lowing sentiments of the season to its friends: 1 Am Determined To respect my work, my associates and myself; to be hon- est and fair with them, as I expect them tc be honest and fair with me; to be a man whose work carries weight; to be a boost: er and not a knocker; a pusher, not a kicker; a motor, not a clog; to base my expectations of reward on the solid foundation of service rendered; to be willing to pay the price of success and honest effort; to look upon my work @s an opportunity to be greeted with joy and made the most of, and not a painful Srudgery to be reluctantly endured To remember that success lies within myself, my wn brain, my own ambition, my own courage and determination; to ex- pect dimculties and force my way through them; to turn hard experiences into capital for future struggles; to interest myself heart and soul in the achievement of results; to be patiently receptive of just criticism, and profit by its teaching; to treat equals and superiors with-respect, and subordinates with kindly encouragement; to make a study of my business duties; to know my work from the ground up; to mix brains with my ef: forts; to use system and method in all I undertake; to find time to do everything needful by never letting time find me or my subordinates doing nothing; to hoard days as a miser does doi- lars; to make every hour bring me dividends in specific results accomplished; to steer clear of dissipation; to guard my health of body and peice of mind as my. most. precious stock in trade. Finally, to take a good trip on the joy of life; to play the game like a gentleman; to fight against nothing so hard as my own weakness; and’endeavor to grow in business capacity and asa man, with the passage of every day of time, WHAT’S WORTH WHILE? As a shower is made up of single drops of water and a meadow of single blades of grass, so life is made up of little things that fill the passing moments. The life that counts is one that seeks to fill its moments with things worth while. Tt is worth while to encourage a fainting heart. It is worth while to woo a smile to a tear-stained cheek. It is worth while to turn wandering feet Into a better way. It is worth while to expose all about us to the contagion of a sunny, well-tempered Ufe. May you and I be neither dreamers nor drudges in the year Just before us, but doers of things worth while, —H. H. BORGMANN. “I love every inch of her prairie land, Bach stone on her mountain alde; I love every drop of the water clear ‘That flowa in her rivers wide; I love every tree every blade of grass, ‘Within our land of bravo, i The queen of the earth is the land of my birth, | ay My own Colorado.” i BIG MEETING OF PYTHIAN KNIGHTS Many Thausinds Attend Ses- Sion at Ohio Capital, BOVERNOR WILLIS’ WELCOME Encouragement—Praise Fer Chairmar, | Reber: B. Barcus and Committees. — Columbus, O.—The sessions of the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias, re- cently held in this city, were preced- ed by & public reception at the Cham. ber of Commerce auditorium with « packe) house that greeted Governor Frank 1. Willis, whose speech the race cannot forget very soon. It was one of the strongest and most outspoken utterances for the rights of man, irre- spective of race, creed or color, we have heard. He was applauded again and acuin. 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 peo-| ple_can do for him in the United States. Mr. Robert B. Barcus, the chairman of the local committee, one of the lead- ing attorneys at the Columbus bar, de- serves great credit for the success of the arrangements. He first introduced Supreme Chancellor 8. W. Green, who told luis audience that he was not ex- pectel to make a speech and that they usually had preliminaries, and he hap- pened to be among the -preliminaries. He suid: “Eighteen years ago the su- preme session met in Columbus, and the licutenant governor was the best -we could get. I am glad we have got ‘back to Columbus and are big enough fo be welcomed by the governor of Ohio.” Governor Willis was then in- troduced by Mr. Barcus in his usual fine flow of language that bespoke of his masterly attainments and very apt- ly and felicitously referred to the gov- ermor as the next president of the United States. The governor said in part: “1 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 chair- man for what he was good enough to say) relative to the position that has been’ taken in this state by this ad- ministration congerning the production of certain photo plays. I should not yave 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 L have any Influence with this ad- | ministration there will not be produced in the state of Ohio any photo plays that are calculated to refleet upon any | class @f our citizens. As the chairman has Wery properly stated, it is entirely proper’ for the races to live together in peace and harmony, but it is not pos- sible if we allow the production upon the stage of picture plays of this char- acter, and 1 do not propose to stand for 10” Hom, George J. Karb, mayor of Co: jumbus, was introduced by the chatr- mon. In appropriate words he extend- ed a Cordial welcome to the Knights aud Visiting friends and recommended thot they should visit the engineering works recently installed by the city | before leaving the city and have ex pimed to them in detall the operation ¢ these plants. He further declared thot the Knights of Pythias and the pimbers of the Court of Calanthe and visitors Were welcome to the city in its elrety, and if there was anything they desired to call upon him and the governor and they would both see (hat they got it, which remark was received wich great applause. was stuted by many who have at- | tended the supreme session and en- ipment for years that never before in the history of the encampment has | chete Been such hospitality extended thomas It was In Columbus by both wite and colored citizens.

T., do hereby extend our deepest ; heartfelt sympathy to this bereaved family in the loss of one so near and dear. If anything could have caused us espe- cial pain, it was the news of the sud- den death of our dear sister, and to Jose such a devoted one truly brings @ deep and heavy shadow. No more we'll hear her welcome greetings, nor ‘meet her in our temple with her sweet and smiling face, still should we follow her example, we shall meet her face to face in the great beyond. It has indeed been a heavy loss and we can scarcely know how to talk of consolation under so bitter an afflic tion; still there remains a consolation to us that there will be a glad and happy reunion in the temple above where the membership is compose of holy angels. We assure you. that our hearts beat in unison with you sorrow, yet we are hourly reminde¢ that life is a count of losses. A light {s from our temple gone, ‘A voice we loved is still. ‘A place is vacant in your home Which never can be filled. We cannot tell who next may fall Beneath the chastening rod; One must be first, but let us all Prepare to meet our God. Resolved, that a copy of these reso lutions be sent to the bereaved fam ily, spread upon our minutes and pub lished in the weekly papers, as the last tribute to our devoted sister.
