BOY GETS PENAL TERM; REFUSEDTO SALUTE FLAG
Des Moines, Ia.—Because of refusal to salute the flag, Hubert Eaves, a Negro, 11 years old, was ousted today from the public schools of this city and sentenced to nine years in the Eldora reformatory.
The order was issued by District Judge C. A. Dudley.
The court suspended sentence and paroled the boy to his parents on the promise that he would be placed in a private school, where education demanded by the Iowa statutes is given.
Hubert is a member of the so-called sanctified cult, refused to repeat the oath of allegiance or salute the flag, because "it had no God in it, and there was nothing about saluting the flag in the Bible."—Denver Times March 22.
his Race who were in regiments in 1778 under Alexander Scammell, Adjt. General; the two battalions that were with General Jackson at New Orleans; the names of the brave soldiers during the Civil War at Milligen's Bend, Port Hudson, Ft. Pillow, Bull Run, Antietam and Shiloh. He knows of their bravery in the Spanish American war; 24th and 25th Infantry, 9th and 10th Cavalry, 8th Regiment of Illinois; the battle at El Caney and the surrounding of Roosevelt and saving the day for the United States. All this he knows, but what has this country paid my people for the loss of their lives, for their bravery and heroism? These are the kind of questions this developed mind has put before the country where his parents are denied the protection of the flag. Several days ago at the school which he was attending he refused to salute the flag. It even loomed up in his mind at the time when our troops were returning from Cuba, white men threw stones at our soldiers. All this rising in his mind, he did not salute the flag, he was arrested and taken before Judge Dudley and tried. The case attracted national attention, because he thinking just as thousands of others of the younger generation. He is thinking why should any man of the race fight for a country or a flag that will not give him protection;
"The members of the Race have done everything to help the United States become prosperous. They have helped build the railroads, till the soil, raise the cotton, tunnel the mountains, dig in the mines, fought for the country and now are the least in its consideration. Foreigners can come here and get protection of the United States government and never raised their hands for its protection but are given choice places in all public offices and best positions. My father has been a railroad porter for twenty-five years and has stripes on his arm from his wrist to his shoulder, but is still a rail-

The Reason Why.
Hubert Eaves' reasons for not saluting the flag are that this country does not give his Race any protection; are denied the right to participate in its elections by the enforcement of the Grandfather clauses; in many States denies them the right to pursue a Higher education, "Jim Crows' the Race on all railroads in the South; ostracizes him in public places; treats him as though he has not been in all the wars of this country; denies him the right to work and bars the "door of hope" against him. Because the soldiers of the 'sixties and the Spanish-American war are not treated as men and that this Government goes so far as to wink at Southern concubinage. Not until this United States recognizes his Race as a man, giving him all the rights and privileges as any other citizen, will he pay homage to the Stars and Stripes. With all this I am not biting the hand that feeds me, but I am trying to convince the brain of that hand that my people deserve full recognition as the one "Uncle Sam" is trying to feed. I am willing to salute the flag as the flag salutes me as it does the foreigners; and yet I am not a Huerta.
Des Moines, Iowa, Mar. 24. —Hubert Eaves, the eleven-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Eaves, who lives on West Third street, has startled the country by his new philosophy of American patriotism. The youngster has a precocious mind and has read the history of this country and other countries and knows the name of every Race man who exhibited bravery in the wars of the United States. He knows about the 3,000 men of the Race who were pressed in to service under Alexander Hamilton and George Washington's order to authorize the enlistment of Negro troops in 1775 and the 400 who stood at the Battle of Rock Island, Aug. 20, 1778; Peter Salem, praised for his work at Bunker Hill; the 775 brave boys of
road porter," said young Eaves to the reporter. "In the white papers they said I stayed away from school to avoid saluting the flag; that is not so, I was away to have my picture taken for the Chicago Defender," he said, continuing his story.
The "Birth of the Nation" came to this city with all its damnable influence and left its prejudice and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had done everything to keep it from showing. Since the show left here Mrs. Eaves has been trying to get one of her sons work but with no avail. There are nine children in the family and five dead. The parents came from West Virginia. It is said that there is a strong racial feeling in the family; thinking for the best interest of themselves and the Race that has caused the boy to have such a determined mind.
"When will you salute the flag?" was asked young Eaves by a Defender reporter. He said: "Look at the boys who are members of the 10th Cavalry. They are now in Mexico fighting a race of their own color against this country—newspapers now are giving them space. When they return they can't get anything to eat in a country whose flag they fought for not even a decent place to lay his head. Then the worst of it all is that after the Mexican has fought this country, he can come to the United States and get the best hotel accommodation. I will salute the flag WHEN THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT GIVES THE RACE THE SAME PROTECTION THAT IT GIVES EVERY OTHER CITIZEN. When 'Jim Crowing,' segregation and other form of injustice are stopped then it will be time for our Race to salute the flag." Hubert Eaves was ordered back to school by Judge Dudley. He has looked into the matter and cannot find any law to effect the boy's schooling and there is no crime done for not saluting the flag. The boy's action, however has caused many a one to think seriously, if they will salute the flag or not.
Stand by the Flag! Its Yours!
Ever since the inception of the European war, and especially since the punitive expedition into Mexico following the outrageous raid on Columbus, N. M., expression of sentiments for and against allegiance to "Old Glory" by members of the race have grown common. We would like to call the attention of our readers to the condition in Ireland. A handful of English Land Lords own not only 90 per cent of the city and village properties of that oppressed land, but almost all of the farm lands, which are poor and nearly unproductive. At no place in the South are the
Star Holds Fast to Speer Plan. Democrats Employ 15; Republicans 2.
IN TIMES LIKE THESE, GOD GIVE US MEN.
The STAR again announces that still another amendment has been filed, making three, the last being the Nisbet amendment. The Macey amendment is dead, it having died soon after its birth. The fight will be between the Speer and Nisbet amendments. As you already know the Star is using all its power, strength and every ounce of its influence to support the Speer plan against all others. Why? The Star will give reasons which are strong and reasonable, and challenges the supporters of the Nisbet charter to give three good substantial reasons, outside of the money they might use, as to why they are supporting the Nisbet charter. Let the public get the advantage of the discussion, if they are honest and mean to do the fair and square thing in behalf of the Race. We have already been informed that because the Star said last week that Nisbet had declared, notwithstanding the injustices done the Negro, the whole Race could be bought for $100, he has changed his amount now, and offers $400 for the Race. When men are wrong, know they are wrong and DON'T WANT TO CHANGE, they generally buy their way through, or attempt to do so. Four Hundred Dollars! Think of it!! That amount distributed among seven churches, means less than $60 per church congregation. How cheap does Nisbet hold the Negro? Since the Birth of the Nation fight, in which battle he received some lasting scars, he thinks that four times his original price will cause the Negroes to tumble over themselves. Watch the men he uses to promote his plan and see how prominently they were identified in the Birth of the Nation fight. Four hundred dollars only means that instead of hiring 20 men and women at $5 a day, you hire $0 men and women at that price to win 5,000 voters in Denver. Even if they could, or did, what would Nisbet give them after election, that same jail job?
He has been in office for nearly 25 years and what has he actually done for the Negroes of Denver, outside of discriminating against and insulting them? Eliminating that jail job of guarding and mingling with crooks and criminals what else has he done? Let his Negro henchmen name it? As against his plan we are endorsing the Speer plan, which we claim spells Negro opportunity. Why? Because the men behind it have given in the last two years more real substantial, progressive, as well as, representative recognition than has ever been given before by anybody, republicans not accepted, in the City and County of Denver. And what the Star means to emphasize is that they are not temporary jobs, they are ALL working now. Because two men whose great and powerful influence with Mr. Speer can always be depended upon to be, at least, friendly toward the interest of the Negro, and they are Commissioners Pitcher and Sharp-
members of our race forced to live in the ignorance, poverty and squalor which do the Irish in their native land But when Great Britain declared war 01G ermine none of its dependencies responded more valiantly and in larger numbers than did the down trodden race from the Ould Sod. Today they are fighting in the trenches shoulder to shoulder with their English owners, apparently having for gotten the injustices of yesterday. No doubt they consider it a common cause, and hope that the heroic efforts of today will reap a reward of justice in the future. While it is a fact that our Race does not receive the full amount of protection and justice due it under the Stars and Stripes, the fact remains that we of America know no other flag, and in the future, as in the past, would not be found wanting. In every war in which this
country has engaged, the Race represented and their behavior in the thickest of the fray has always gained the admiration and glorification due the heroic. We are not a race of cowards, and the most nauseating argument is the howl of the unpatriotic. No matter what practices are used against us, whether in the rural districts or in Washington itself, the fact remains that America is our country and the Stars and Stripes our flag. We would be traitors to think otherwise, and even though we came here in bondage we are today living a life which can lead only to a higher civilization. Nowhere, aside from Brazil, S. A., does this fact show plainly, and in no better way could we hope to break down the barriers of oppression than by showing our mettle as men by fighting for Old Glory, if we are called upon in defense of our country.

ley, whose nerve and manhood have been tested by the fires of race hate and contumely and who came out more than giants in the battle for struggling humanity. When the Star thinks and recalls that memorable fight at the city hall against that hellish play "Birth of the Nation" and then thinks and reflects on Nisbets vacillating and diceptive actions, and knows now that some of the same Negroes who were with us THEN and against him are now with him and against US, we say, may their right hands forget their cunning, their tongues cleave to the roof of their mouths and their eyes glued in their sockets, if, in their lapse of manhood, and womanhood, they forget to keenly realize and appreciate the good deed done us, by the Commissioners Sharpley, Pitcher and Greenlee. Mr. Greenlee, we are sorry to say has been ill advised and has committed suicide by having been put on the Nisbet charter amendment. By so doing he has put himself beyond the reach of every honest, thoughtful and race respecting Negro. We pleaded with him not to link up with Nisbet, but he has made his choice and taken his chances with Nisbet. Mr. Greenlee started out in the campaign by saying he would not appoint any Negro to any counter position, where white people objected and he did not. After having been elected three months, he gave three Negroes jobs raking leaves in the parks lying in the outskirts of town, and the Star thanked him even for that "belated political recognition." He rose higher in our estimation, when he stood with the Negro in the "Birth of the Nation" fight and we felt that he really had begun to appreciate something worth while in the Negro race. But, atlas, he has made us, scan his record and choose between him and Nisbet on one side and Sharpley and Pitcher on the other and We have made our choice on actual facts which favor the Negroes.
Mayor Sharpley, a Virginia Democrat with a heart bubbling over with sympathy for the poor struggling mass of humanity, has made three good representative honorable appointments of Negroes. He put Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook on the staff of the Advisory Board of Physicians at our County hospital for a year, while the white appointees were placed there for three months. He recognized Dr. P. E. Spratlin by appointing him in the Board of Health department. He appointed J. J. Manuel, a fumigator, all of whom creditably passed the civil service examinations Did HE not do more in three appointments than did Nisbet and Greenlee who never have

The Young Women's Christian Association held a very interesting meeting Monday evening when Mrs. I. B. Perkins read about the "idyls of the King." These are short pastoral poems. She told how the poems were first handed down from one generation to another; then how the Troubadours sang them and how they were finally collected by Tennyson, rejuvenated and given us in the present fascinating form.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
Illness prevented Rev. F. W. Henry from addressing the men's meeting last Sunday afternoon. Several members of the boys' membership campaign teams met last Saturday evening to arrange for the coming campaign. Each boy is pledged to bring in one member during the campaign. The second meeting of the "Life Problems" class was held last Saturday evening at eight o'clock, Mr. J. S. Temple, assistant state treasurer, being the leader. The subject was "The Value of Work." The discussion in the class is very animated and interesting, and reminds one at times somewhat of a debating team. Three new members joined. The subject next Saturday evening will be "Preparation for a Life Work."
Several of the boys met on Wednesday evening to organize a Y. M. C. A. Dramatic Club among the boys. Two new plays will be brought out within a short time. Theodore Anderson, one of our younger boys, has been appointed a special officer by the Health Department. He wears a badge, and is required to make regular reports at stated times.
Mr. Earl Smith has been selected to train the members wishing to take part in the track meet on Decoration day. A meeting will be held Friday evening to assign the members to their different parts.
A meeting of men was held on Tuesday evening to appoint captains and other workers for the different teams for the membership campaign to be held beginning April 10th.
Mr. George G. Calkins, social work secretary of the Central Association, will address the boys' meeting next Sunday afternoon. The men's meeting will be held at four o'clock, and Rev. Dr. F. W. Henry will speak. All are cordially invited.

PROGRESS MADE
TOWARD PEACE
Suggestions For Reunting the
National Baptist Convention,
SOURCES OF CO-OPERATION
Washington. — ‘The peace movement
recently organized among the Baptists
of this city is making splendid prog-
ress. The object of the movement is
to reunite the two divisions of the na-
tional Baptist convention. Dr. Wiliam
H. Jernagin, pastor of the Mount Car-
; mel Baptist church, and Miss Nannie
Helen Burroughs, president of the Na-
tional Training Schoo! For Women and
Girls and secretary of the women’s
convention of the national body, are
president and secretary of the move-
ment respectively. ‘I'he steps suggest
ed by the peace movement to be taken
by the two factions in order to bring
about union are the following:
First.— Stop the publication of in-
flammatory articles. Eliminate for
ever all unkind personalities. Discuss
measures, not men. Contend for prin-
ciples without harshness or bitterness.
By the co-operation of editors of our
denominational papers and others liv-
ing up to their high mission as dis-
pensers of that which builds spiritual-
|!y and morally instead of upon ex
| plosives and combustibles. That the
| press, that mighty vehicle for making
' sentiment, publish only tidings of peace
and good will.
Second.—Withdraw all lawsuits, for
we are wasting money and destroying
men’s influence and bringing reproach
upon the name “Baptists.”
Third.—State leaders keep the war
out of the states. ~
Fourth.—Adjust without giving away,
! selling out or surrendering any rights,
| moral, material or Baptistic. Let all
administrative affairs, those of boards
and convention, be properly adjusted.
| The denomination is teeming with men
| who have the mental calmness, states:
man-like vision and-grace filled souls
|to make our constitution the safest,
soundest and most satisfactory instru-
ment ever sent forth from the pen of
| mortal.
Fifth.—This can be done if the exec-
ative boards of the two conventions
will meet separately and prepare their
Instruments in tones that become
Christians and brethren and then meet
‘together and present them for the
prayerful and careful consideration
and action of both. The boards could
then call a session extraordinary with
[a well prepared “get together and
‘stay together” plan, and God will do
tho reat.
| Sixth.—Since the pulpit bas certainly
[been our greatest agency for uplift
(and {t should now as never before
| “lift up its voice Uke a trumpet and
“show the people their transgressions
and the house of Jacob their sins,” we
appeal to every minister to be up and
about the King’s business.
| Seventh.—Since one of the causes of
separation {s due to a difference over
management of a plant, we bellere
that an amicable settlement can be
made when the following information
Is obtained with reference to the Nash
ville property: What is the value of
our realty holdings, incumbrances
thereon, how property is deeded, to
whom mnortgages, ete, are due, value
[of machinery, value of stock, outstand.
Ing bills of stock and machinery, to
whom owed, Habilities, salaries, to
whom owed, other liabilities. The
secretary of the board will not, we
hope, hesitate to give this information
to the leaders of both conventions or
to any group of Raptists who are work
Ing to unite the forces.
Elghth.—Since the next difference ts
over the administrative affairs of the
convention, we appeal to our executive:
force to lead out In devising plans to
‘regulate by constitutional enactment
the election of officers, the manage-
“ment and supervision of every phase of
the work done by the boards and. Iast-
ly, to make the national body a modei
of Christian dignity and the annual
gatherings an occasion of great spir
Itual and moral uplift to those who
come long distances on business for
the King. With these things adjust:
ed. not by the courts, but by Baptists
all assembled in one place and of one
mind and with the Holy Spirit to
guide, we shall get back to the old
landmark set by those wise men twen-
ty years ago,
The most unfair and unfortunate fea-
ture of this catastrophe is that we are
now pushing the war into the states
and forcing people who have tremen-
dous burdens—educational, missionary.
socinl—to take up the national fight.
to divide their forces, to stop their
own local work to fight among them
selves over national problems, What
a price to pay! The end of state splits
will not even be in sight until there
are two state conventions and two
auxiliaries of every kind in every
state.
What a cumbersome lot of machin-
ery we aro ordering when the watch-
wonl of our times ts “efficlency.” and
efficiency means the conservation of
energy and the elimination of waste
by which we. make the largest use of |

PAYING THE PRICE OF MANHOOD
Because the Star had the temerity boldness and honesty of purpose sufficient to tell Gov. Carlson in plain language that he had mistreated the Negroes of Colorado, and because we had fearlessness enough to criticize ex-Governor Harper, the Star lost the printing of 15 reports of insurance ranging about $160. We were told that if we laid down our fight upon Carlson and support him we would be taken care of. We told them if that was their price for us to pay, we would rather lose all than swallow Carlson after his treatment of the Negro. We secured one report because of the special request of the company to have it published in the Star. The democrats for two years straight gave the Star 12 and last year, through Mr. John F. Vivian, we secured 16. We are not complaining because several weeks ago, before we started our fight, we told you that if we did our full duty to the race it would cost us nearly $200. We told you then we would pay the price. Ex-Lieutenant Governor, Commissioner of Insurance Harper did not know that there were some Negroes whom he could not "Jim Crow" as he has his messenger; he did not know that all Negroes would not grin, lick-spittle, knee-bend and go with hat in hand and beg him for some insurance crumbs. Some day we may have the honor and opportunity to favor him. He did not know that Allison Stocker stands as high above Gov. Carlson in brains, executive ability and experience in handling big things, as Mayor Speer does over Booth, or as Pike's Peak stands high over Cheyenne mountain.
Negroes of Colorado, the Star is paying the price for you and I, to be men, real men, respected as such. Soon You will be called upon to pay the price of friendly appreciation shown you by two exemplary men, Pitcher and Sharpey, who have made 15 appointments of Negroes against two. What will you do; will you be bought off and led away and leave them and the 15 men and their families exposed to the Carlson-Nisbet treachery? We hope you will pay your honest debt in full. When you see Massa Harper, eye him good and take his mental and physical measure, sending him a few telephatic messages of your innermost thoughts and feelings. He believes in the tattling, spineless Negroes and cannot help it. Pay the price—we did. We fought ourselves in and we will fight ourselves out or die fighting in our tracks. A copper headed republican is more deadly than our bitterest enemy.
What's the difference in principle between men who permit the Birth of a Nation and men who support the man who permitted it. Both are enemies of the Negro, white or black.

OF CONGRESS OF AUGUST 24,
1912,

for April 1st, 1916, State of Colorado,
County of Denver.
Before me, a Notary Public, in and
for the State and county aforesaid,

FIVE POINTS "TRUST BUSTER"
AND GOOD ADVICE.
The proprietor of the Welton St. fruit and vegetable store succeeded in demonstrating to the public that HE will run his own store, giving articles away if he so desires. The Meadow Gold butter people objected to him selling their butter for 35c a pound when he paid them 34c and therefore would not sell him as long as he charged 35c. He appealed to the district attorney's office and forced them to sell him. As a result his patrons get the benefit of his close selling, Hurrah for the Welton fruit man. We only wish we had more like him. By the way, the Star urges that the Negroes only spend their money in three grocery stores in Five Points which advertise with Negroes. There is our own O. W. Glenn, who has first class goods and sells as reasonable as any. Then there is the Five Points Meat Market and the Welton Fruit Store, who spend their money with us. We in turn spend and divide our money among four at our office, who spend it with the churches and colored business places. But when you spend it with others who care nothing for your welfare, we never get a chance at that money. Why not help us to help others? It costs you no more. Just ask your grocer if he advertises in A COLORED PAPER before you buy. See what great effect it will have.
The thing you need I've got—ask Hinkle.

FOR CHILDREN'S COUGH.
You cannot use anything better for your child's cough and cold than Dr. King's New Discovery. It is prepared from Pina Tar mixed with healing and soothing balsams. It does not contain anything harmful and is slightly laxative, just enough to expel the poisons from the system. Dr. King's New Discovery is antiseptic—kills the cold germs—raises the phlegm—loosens the cough and soothes the irritation. Don't put off treatment. Coughs and Colds often lead to serious lungtroubles. It is also good for adults and the aged. Get a bottle today. All Druggists.

10 NEGROES OF DENVER AND
COLORADO.
The Star has tried to stand by the Negroes, their best interest and their welfare. We have urged that the Negroes organize and speak through the organizations. They have done that. They have appealed, petitioned, yea begged for consideration by and for the State officials. The Star's advice to all Negroes is to not join any kid of a club or an organization. Beware of any and all politicians. Just stop, wait and think for yourself. Welch all matters carefully before you act. There is dirty work in the wind. Watch and Wait.

JOHN H. BURKE
E. B. FAIRWEATHER'S PLUCK.
How a New York Business Man Conquered His Difficulties.
Mr. Elwyn B. Fairweather, vice president of the Pan-American Products company of New York, is a young man of ideas and is a credit to the Negro race. About a year or two ago he and one or two other men undertook to launch a company in New York—in fact did launch it—for the purpose of conducting an import and export business with South America, the West Indies and Africa. The scheme failed because the brethren had little faith and less cash.
Mr. Fairweather struggled along for some months, hoping against hope, and finally decided to take his eggs to another market. He did and sold them at a good price. White business men listened to his story and were convinced of the practicability and feasibility of his plans for making money out of the raw material of which there is an abundance all over South America, the West Indies and Africa.
His plan is the identical plan he submitted to "colored" men in New York city, but their dull minds could not grasp it—they hesitated, they dalled, forgetting that he who dallies is a dastard and he who doubts is damned.
The American Aluminum Company of New York city, a concern with unlimited capital, has become interested in the Pan-American Products corporation's properties in South America, and the president of this company is now en route to British Guiana to inspect them and to confer with Mr. D. E. Headley, the corporation's local agent at Pernambuco, who is a man of color, a practical mining and civil engineer, who has acquired a quite considerable tract of land in Guiana, on which bauxite is to be found in great quantities. Now, bauxite is the mineral from which aluminum is made, and it commands good prices.
The American Aluminum company will invest a generous sum at the start with the Pan-American corporation, which is developing these properties. Mr. Fairweather is the only colored man connected in an official capacity with the Pan-American corporation in this country. Mr. Headley is the agent and engineer of the corporation in the Gulana. The concern is going to do big business in the next year, for it will get all the capital it requires. "Colored" men, united, could do just as big business in this line if they only had a little more faith in each other and would loosen up their purse strings.
MEETING OF METHODISTS.
Virginia Annual Conference Convene
In Richmond, Va. April 4.
Delegates from the various churches of the African Methodist Episcopal denomination in the state of Virginia have been selected to represent their respective churches at the fifth annual conference of the A. M. E. church to be held at Richmond, beginning on Tuesday, April 4. The sessions of the conference will be held in the Third Street Bethel A. M. E. church. This session of the conference will be of more than ordinary importance on account of the near date of the general conference of the A. M. E. church, which is to be held in Philadelphia in May. Several of the bishops and officers of the general conference will be in attendance at the Richmond meeting.

| ZION CELEBRATES PASTOR'S
SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY.
PASTOR GETS 46 FT.
OF CURRENCY.
Quietly, a selected committee of the
church got the members and friends
together last Monday night and ap
propriately honored the seventh mile
post in-Rev. Over's pastorship of Zion
Baptist. Words fail to express the
picture accurately of that great ova
tion and the intense. enthusiasm and
joyful s,irit which thoroughly _per-
yaded the house from start to finish.
U. 8. Baker, a recent valuable addi.
tion, was spokeaman and when he
pulled out 46 feet of currency from
his pocket, with Rey. Oover holding
one end and Bro. Kigh at the other.
that moment the house was turned
into a scene of pandimonium, of joy
and applause. Nowhere in Denver
has that scene ever been deplicated.
So great was the effect upon the pas:
tor and his wife that neither could
respond, only to look at one another
in strange bewilderment. However
this mark of appreciation will ever
be a green spot in their memories
and the history of Zion Baptist
shureh,
We have told you how it impresse
us; now let the Evangel tell how {t
impressed Rev. and Mrs. Over.
AN APPRECIATION.
Last week the editor rounded out
his seventh year as the pastor of
Zion church, and in order that the
necaston, in the judgement of the con-
sregation, might be properly empha-
tized, obedient to the movement of n
committee, it came together Monday
avening with a resvonse which outdid
anything in our memory or the mem:

Thomas-Hazell and Bell, together
with persons selected from the con:
gregation, with the juvenile choir,
was so well rendered as to bring from
the vast audience round upon round
of thunderous applause. When the
pastor was presented, he was greet:
ed by an ovation such as he has never
known. Brother Wallace, in speaking
for the church, had presented the
out-standing features of our seven
years of service in such terms as met
the hearty approval of those for
whom he spoke; but as a thrilling
climax to programme, already be
come tense with suppressed emotion
Brother Raker gave @ fitting presen
tation speech, at the close of which
drawing from his pocket a huge rol
of one dollar green-backs pinned t
gether, he presented one end to th
Pastor and tossed the roll to me
who had arisen, and who carried t)
other end nearly to the rear pews |
the auditorium. At this juncture, f
a few moments, pandemonium reign:
and it was the greatest trial of a li
to respond to this outburst of since’
personal regard from men and w
men who have been lately tried in
very furnace of affliction, The p
gramme over, the congregation w
ushered into the beautifully dec
ated parlors of the church, where
reception was held, which was
great an honor to those who had t
whole affair in charge as to him w
is the unworthy recipient of this m
generous expression of a communit:
regard. This ccming at the end of
year frought with trial and difficu’
hns so overwhelmed the pastor a
Mrs. Over with a sense of their «
Matton to Zion's people as to bi
them with tes which cannot be bri

They cave $5,000, thus enabling the
men to raise a great deal more than
the required amount.
| Ds. Jesse E. Moorland, senior inter-
national Y. M. C. A. secretary, who
had charge of the canvass, had on
previous occasions, when conducting
‘campaigns for other associations. said
that he should not be satisfied until he
found a member of the race who was
able and would give $5,000 to the
work of the Young Men’s Christian as-
sociation. There have been several
rifts of $1,000 to the Y. M,C. A. in
the twelve or more campaigns which
Dr, Moorland has conducted, and this,
ro doubt, led Dr. Moorland to believe
that the mit had not been reached.
Professor and Mrs. Malone have al-
ways shown great interest in racial
enterprises, as this gift of $5,000 clear-
ly demonstrates.
Mrs. Malone fs the founder and pres:
ident of the Poro college in this city.
which is doubtless the only institutton
of its kind in the United States con-
cucted by members of our race. Mrs.
Annie M. Pope-Turner-Malone fs a na.

of humble parents and was left an or-
phan at an early age. Being of 2
thrifty and ambitious disposition she
managed to care for herself by diligent
work. She finished the grammar
echool course and then took a course
of study in the high schoo! at Peoria,
mL.
When but a young girl Mrs. Malone
studied the art of caring for and dress:
g hair until she became an expert fn
this line of business. She began bust
ness for herself at Lovejoy, Hl. where
she was located for a year and a halt.
From Lovejoy she ehanged her resi
dence to this elty. From the experi
ence already gained she believed that
there was a great future for her as a
business woman, ‘That she had the
right {dea of the matter may be seen
from her present status in business.
Her establishment consists of a twenty

1,000 to 1,500 women and girls of our

ADVERTISE IN THE STAR AND LOOK PROSPEROUS.
Even though you may not be prosperous, adopt as far as possible the appearance of prosperity. It is sound capital and will bring good interest in the long run. Shabby-looking people, you may have noticed, always appear apologetic and can easily be turned down when they are most in need of a helping hand. Keep a brace front. Dame Fortune likes to throw her magic cloak about the shoulders of the man or woman who looks capable of making the best of it.

DANGERS OF DRAFT
Drafts feel best when we are hot and perspiring, just when they are most dangerous and the result is neuralgia, stiff neck, sore muscles, or sometimes an attack of rheumatism. In such cases apply Sloan's Llniment. It stimulates circulation to the sore and painful part. The blood flows freely and in a short time the stiffness and pain leaves. Those suffering from neuralgia or neuralgic headache will find one or two applications of Sloan's Llniment will give grateful relief. The agonizing pain gives way to a tingling sensation of comfort and warmth and quiet rest a sleep is possible. Good for neuritis too. Price 25c at your druggist.

BISHOP J. ALBERT JOHNSON'S LECTURE.
Never has Denver been treated so royally intellectually, spiritually, and helped so racially as was evidenced by the visit of Bishop Johnson and his lecture, "South Africa as I Saw It." Unanswerable, hopeful and progressive facts, hitherto suppressed were shown upon the screen about the true condition of the South African Negro, colored people and natives. Denver is glad to welcome the Bishop again on another visit.
LISTEN.
Don't forget the grand entertainment given by the Masons at East Turner hall, Easter Monday night April 24th. Feature the McDaniel Sisters and company in their latest craze, "Spirella Johnson from Memphis, Tenn."
SHOULD YOU PATRONIZE HIM?
Because Mrs. J. C. Brown of 2804
Welton St. rented for $11.50 a certain
house belonging to the Conaway
Bogue Realty Co., thru the efforts of
Mr. Harry Cowell of the Colored
American Realty Branch, when the
Five Points realty man wanted $15.0
per month, the Star is becoming any
lous to know whether colored people
at Five Points are forced to pay more
for rentals. The best way out is:
Any time you cannot get what you
want, phone the Colored American
Realty Co. Any insults or embarrass
ments, let them bear it; it's in the
business. If you go and get insulted
you are alone injured. Why not rent
hru a colored man anyway?
Follow your dollar and spend it where
it will do the race the most good. Do
you get that?
