TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR
MASONS GO TO COLO. SPRINGS EASTERN STAR TO EMPORIA, KANSAS.
Everything is in readiness at Colorado Springs for the Fortieth Annual Session of the Grand Lodge of Masons of Colorado and Jurisdiction next week which begins the 8h and continues until the roth. Elaborate preparations have been made for their reception and enthusiasm runs high. A general good time is in store for all who attend even as visitors of the sessions. The delegates are firmly set upon passing such legislation as is necessary for the progress of the subordinate lodges. Everything augurs for peace, happiness, prosperity, and friendship thru out the meeting. All office seekers will be left at home, disturbers will stay behind and no persons attended the Grand Sessions save those whose burning zeal and righteous hearts yearn for a square deal and a building up of the order.
As the Masons are intensely engaged in deliberate sessions in Colorado Springs, Mesdames Grand Secretary Corine Obryant, Worthy Matron Mary Clinckscale of Lone Star Chapter No. 5 and Annie Hamilton of Evergreen Chapter No. 36 accompanied by Mrs. Effie Waldon and other prominent and influential sisters, will be speeding toward Emporia, Kansas where their Grand Sessions of Prince Hall Chapter consisting of 70 subordinate chapters meet and will have their Grand Sessions.
About our Grand Master Rector and Grand Matron Miss Olivia Porter, the Star heartily voices the sentiment that if there be any reward for hard and efficient work; if there be any honor for strict attention to business; if there be any glory for meritous service; if there be any praise for a man or a woman of push, tact integrity and sterling qualities and finally if there be any deserved merit for a man or a woman who surmounts obstacles, makes and breaks ways into usefulness, then let such be again showered upon our esteemed Grand Master, T. S. Rector and Grand Matron, Miss. Olivia Porter,

John Lange, one of the best known men in the United States and Manager of the Blind Boone Concert Co. for the past thirty-seven years, passed away suddenly Saturday morning about 9:00 o'clock, at Kansas City, Mo Mr. Lange, in company with Prof. J. R. E. Lee, was in his motor car when it was struck by a Ford car belonging to a white man. The excitement affecting his heart, he was taken to the Weaver Floral par lors where he died before Drs. Perry, Lambright and others could reach him. John Lange was well known all thru Colorado and the West. His death is a distinct loss to the race.
Colored Priest Bequeathed Property.
St. Paul, Minn.—Father Stephen L. Theobald, pastor of St. Peter Claver's Catholic Church, was adopted as her son by Mrs. Mary E. Falihee, white, a wealthy and pioneer resident today. District Judge H. R. Brull signed the decree of adoption after a brief hearing of Mrs. Falihee's petition. Mrs. Falihee, who lives at 135 St. Peter's street, has been a resident of St. Paul 40 years She is 61 years old and is a widow with no children, Father Theobald is 41 years old. He is an orphan, formerly was a Montreal newspaper man and is a graduate of St Thomas College.
"I do not see that it is anyone's business, said Mrs. Falihee, "and as it is very unusual I do not care to have the adoption given publicity. I am a zealous worker in the Catholic Church and am deeply interested in the work which Father Theobald has been doing. I have some property and when the time comes I want him to benefit by it and further his work."
Father Theobald lives at 319 Fuller street. He has been a priest four years. The petition did not ask for a change of name, as it would be difficult to alter all of Father Theobald's papers, some of which would have to be sent to the Vatican in Rome. "I consider myself complimented," said Father Theobald when questioned, "but do not care to discuss the matter. It is sufficient, is it not, that she desired me to do so." By the decree Mrs. Falihee is the heir of her adopted son.
fire, which had seized the children's clothing. After extinguishing the blaze under the bed she took the children to the street and commandered a passing wagon to take them to the St. Agnes hospital, where their burns were treated.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUG. 13, 1916
Breaking the Light.
Citizen's Rights and Protection Come From Votes. Women Learn Lesson.
Fellow Race Citizens of Colorado, let it never be said that within less than 60 years of the Great Emancipation of the slaves and within 40 years since the admission of Colorado as a centennial State, that this great metropolis City, Denver, and the State, itself so far forgetting the very foundations and organic principles of our own state, gave the lie to the hopes and to the aspirations of our women who daily and constantly struggle under the anarchy of hate, race discrimination and prejudice and who when yearning for political and other opportunities for improvement for themselves and those who come after them had found closed upon them the swinging doors of opportunity to make friends and to cooperate equally in every way in the upbuilding of this grand city and magnificent State, which in the Providence of God had been reserved as a haven for the struggling, sacrificing, aspiring manhood and womanhood of those seeking development and advancement.
"The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof", and all men are His creatures to dwell upon this earth. Now shall we dare to say or declare by our actions that certain men and women, the images of our Creator, shall not share equally with all the rest of His children, the fruits of the fair est land, beautiful with jagging peaks and snow kissed mountains, verdant valleys honeycombed with rivers and lakes, which our brilliant sun shines daily upon? Then why have not the Negro women of this state received more political recognition in times past? The Republican administration with its many Republican elected officials completely ignored the women of this state, who represented 7000 votes. In order to correct this very evil and grievous wrong done the women, the women themselves (God bless them) came together and organized clubs to look after their own welfare and to weed out the undesirable black and white who constantly misrepresent the intelligent and respectable Negro and to prevent political moochers ynd hungry begging, knee bending politicians from getting the plums rightfully belonging to women.
What have Negro women recieved at the State Capitol, at most, one little clerical position in appreciation of 7000 voting women!
Negro women of Colorado whose needs and pursuits of a livelihood are just as vital as any in Colorado. How long will you sit idly by and be hoodwinked by scheming men politicians? Why not rise up and assert yourselves and claim what rightfully belongs to you? Think of it not one appointment in the State Capital! Janitors, messengers and male politicians in times past, have been called in to decide what women should receive the benefits from the women votes. Cannot you see that you are mistreated, misled and defeated before you even begin to aspire? Women of Colorado do something for yourselves independent of the men. While organizations will not solve every problem yet they will reduce many mountains of obstacles to accessible plains of real accomplishment.
The Star suggests that you ask for more than one representative position remembering that a man fishing only with one hook and one line one pole catches only one fish, when he could at least have doubled his strength. Let your candidates for these positions be capable efficient and representative. Do not all aspire for the same job, remember the fishing man. Be creators of jobs and seek new positions, this is a progressive age. Do you expect to stand still all your life? About eight years ago you had a clerkship, today you have nothing. The Star is for our women first, last and all the time and we are willing to lose favor with some politicians in order to place our women in their rightful places. Organize, prepare and agitate. Remember that Allison Stocker remembered our women when he was in office last time. How many applied to him after eertain eliminations were made?
No white man of any avocation—stevedore or what not was permitted to get within hailing distance of the submarine metchant freighter Deutschland while she laid at at the pier in Spring Garden. The captain would employ none but colored men, and these, we were insormed, had
to take a solemn oath which enjoined them to secrecy. Two eleven year old Negro boys stole ten cents worth of sausage in a country town in Louisiana. They were sentenced to one year in the State Penitentiary. The Society for the Prevention for Cruelty to Children is demand ing their release.
ADVOCATES NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS ON CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS
Hillburn, N. Y.,—Fellow Comrades and Fellow Citizens of Color:
By the authority vested in me as president of the National Equal Rights League I hereby issue this preliminary call for the ninth annual convention of said league.
The matter of the exact date and place for the convention is not yet quite settled but it is very timely and proper that there be no further delay in inviting public attention to the fact that such a convention is to be held, and within the next sixty days.
NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS
It has been wisely suggested in view of existing unfavorable social, civic and political conditions confronting us as a people, that the National Equal Rights League invite and urge all of our people, in all sections of the country, to unite in a great "National Congress of Colored Americans," and for the special purpose of voicing the feelings and opinions of the race on those unfavorable conditions now surrounding us in this country; and also to decide upon the wisest and best methods for combating color segregation and all other forms of color discrimination. EXTRAORDINARY WRONGS SUE
After fifty years of so-called freedom in this country, what is the prevailing condition of our Colored-American population? Briefly stated it is this: Our civil rights have been rendered almost futile; we are shamefully curtailed politically; we are denied equality before the law; we are not allowed equal industrial opportunities: our property and our very lives are not at all secure; and "the black horrors of lynching" innocent Colored Americans continue unabated. While our Federal. Government's indifference towards all these injustices is but little less than the nullification of our great war amendments. Throughout the southland, and to more or less extent in the north, the increasing millions of our fellow Colored Americans are being more and more reduced to the pitiable condition of political serfs and social outcasts
CAN WE BE UNMOVED?
If such conditions do not stir our souls and our blood what under heaven can do it? Do not the industrial opportunities denied us, the freedom of speech and of the press not allowed, the civic and political rights taken from us, and the insecurity of property and life that surrounds us, give sufficient ground and reason for the calling of such a National Con

RAGE HAS NEW ATHLETIC STAR.
Seattle, Wash.,—Followers of athletics in Seattle are won dering if another Howard Drew has been discovered in Ed. Johnson, a Colored youth of 19, who is a member of the Broadway High School squad. The sensational work of the young athlete has attracted general attention and sporting writers have devoted considerable space on their sporting pages describing his prowess. Following are the events in which Johnson has won first place in meets with other schools to date: 100-yard dash, 200-yard dash, discus (state record), quarter mile, broad jump and high jump. Besides these, Johnson has run in the relay.
In the first dual meet of the season in which he entered, Johnson won all five events in which he was entered. Johnson will enter the University of Washington next Spring.
gress of Colored Americans as herein suggested? "In this fierce era of controversy and bloodshed," can we be unmoved? While the whole world is wide awake socially, shall we sleep? While all other classes and races are on the verge of social and political revolutions, shall we be indifferent? Since all other groups of oppressed people are in the stir and rush of agitation, is it not high time that we should at least begin to get on the move?
The south is still in the sad dle at our national capital, rushing headlong with a most reckless disregard for the feelings and rights of ten millions of loyal, but oppressed Colored Americans.
FLING OUR STANDARD.
Therefore, let us get togeth in a great national congress, and fling to the whole wide world the full story of our grievances and of our earnest demands for justice and fair play.
GET READY.
Let all our religious, educational, social and political leaders among us heard this call. Let all of our great religious organizations and lodges and benevolent societies begin now to plan to be represented in this proposed congress. By so doing we cannot fail to produce a powerful effect on the public mind that will greatly help us in our struggle for for justice and freedom.
This congress will be independent and wider than any present organization. Its deliberations will not be under the Equal Rights League, which will meet in conjunction.
Faithfully yours,
BYRON GUNNER,
President of the National
Equal Rights League.

The group of young Denverites which appeared in "Thirty Years of Freedom" last Thursday evening, set a new standard for local entertainers.

Nearly Twelve hundred tickets were sold: Mrs. Irene Barbee selling 788 and Miss Lucile Smith, 395. Mrs. Pope, assisted by Mrs. E.

The regular monthly business meeting will be held at the Association's rooms at 318 E. 25th St., Monday, Aug. 7th, at 8 p. m. We hope to have a large attendance of members and friends to hear our plans for the remainder of the summer.
The regular Vesper Service will be held this Sunday at 5 p. m. Owing to the rain of last Sunday there were very few present at these services.
The preceding Sunday we had a very distinguished visitor in the person of Miss Keys. Miss M. T. Keys was president of the Y. W. C. A. Student body at Wilberforce and proved a very efficient worker. She is an evangelist of much fame and drew large crowds to Campbell church to hear her. She gave us a short but interesting talk.
Miss Helen Moody will be hostess at this Sunday's Vesper service.
Open house was held at the Association Rooms last Monday evenng, but there were very few present.
Mrs. Fallings was hostess last Sunday.
BIG BAPTIST MEETING.
Kansas City, Mo., to Entertain the National Convention Sept. 6.
Kansas City, Mo.—With the securing of the big Convention hall and auditorium the citizens of this city passed their first milestone in preparing for the visitors of the great national Baptist convention that is to be held here Sept. 6 to 12, inclusive. This feat was accomplished by the committee of three consisting of Drs. Hurst, Williams and Beckham, who are representing the general committee in charge of the entertainment of the entire delegation. Simultaneous to the securing of this Convention hall news came from Vicksburg, Miss., that the executive committee of the congress in session there had chosen its delegates for the coming big gathering.
A program covering six days of constructive work has been made, which is argued here as guaranteeing an unusually interesting session. The committee on homes has been at work for some time making assignments. The citizens of the city, regardless of denominations, have joined hands to help Kansas City entertain her guests the first week in September. The Baptist Ministers' alliance took action some time ago whereby the securing of the big city Convention hall and other places was heartily indored. It is safely estimated by President Jones of the national Baptist convention that over 5,000 Baptists will invade Kansas City during the week of the convention.

WISE LAUDS WASHINGTON.
Taught Our Democracy Much Needed Lesson. Sava Noted Rabbi.
Of the many high tributes paid to the memory of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington by men of both races and of all walks of life the following, by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New York, is a masterpiece. He says: "Washington was a great educator in that he never forgot that he was dealing with human material—that he was commissioned of God, not so much to fill men's minds with knowledge as to help them to fulfill their own lives. He gave to his people something more precious than gold—the knowledge that the art of service and the part of leadership are complementary terms.
"Washington dared to proclaim to his newly freed people that freedom was not a thing of flat or proclamation, but must be wrought out of their own souls. Statesman was he, who sounded the note of service to a race which after centuries of oppression, inevitably longed to hear its rights urged and stressed. He realized that hand in hand with every advance made by his race must go a corresponding gain in the good will of the white race.
"This great American taught our democracy a lesson which it needs to learn, lest it cease to be. He taught us that the greatest thing in life is self forgetful service. Drunk as we are with things, intoxicated as we are with the passion of self satisfaction and self aggrandizement, let us not forget the lesson taught by the life of this man in his quiet strength and fine dignity—how great a thing is the selfless service of a cause.
"Let the Negro remember that the color line vanishes in the presence of real greatness. Let the Negro ever bear in mind that, while an entire race cannot seek protection under the shadow of one great name or ten great names, a race, like a man, must stand upon its own feet and not upon the shoulders of a single man."
Civil War Veteran Applaude Governor's Statement About Colored Troops. Commenting on a recent reference in the New York Times to Governor Charles S. Whitman's order to recruit a regiment of colored soldiers for the New York national guard, Charles N. Swift, a former United States army officer, in a letter to the Times says: "Your article on the admission of a Negro regiment into the New York national guard was, on the whole, well written. But you thought Governor Whitman went a bit too far in saying, 'History shows that our Negro soldiers have always rendered distinguished service to the country.'
"As an officer of United States colored troops in the civil war and having made the subject a study ever since, trying over and over again to have such a regiment admitted to the national guard, I side with Governor Whitman, for I yet have to know of their having shown the white feather, from the Revolution to the present time.
"They were and are true Americans. If admitted to the national guard the noted Seventh will have worthy competitors in drill and discipline, and the city will be proud of its colored troops."
Newspaper Man to Meet at Kansas City President Chris J. Perry of the National Negro Press association and Chairman Joseph L. Jones have issued a call for a meeting of the executive committee, to be held at Kansas City. Mo., during the convention of the National Negro Business league. Aug. 16 to 18. A full attendance of members is urged. The perfecting of plans for a news agency and arrangements for the annual meeting to be held in February, 1917, will be among the important matters to which the committee will give attention.

WHITMAN WAS CORRECT.
Well Known Southern White Man Lauds Work of Late Educator. Referring to the struggles and successes of the Negro race in the United States in a recent address, Frank D. Rash of Kentucky said: "No longer does the gallant, be whiskered southern colonel surround himself with cupbearers and lounge on the broad veranda of his colonial mansion, all the while sipping the seductive mint julep from the frosted cup of silver, and, though the Kentucky colonel still lives, you will now see him donning cap and overalls and leading the forces of industry in bringing Kentucky's marvelous mineral wealth to the use of mankind or yet perhaps as the executive directing his staff in any one of the many manufacturing enterprises springing up within the borders of the commonwealth.
"Much has been written and said concerning a so called Negro problem—a great part of this at long distance—and it may be that the first hand experiences and observation of a southerner may be of interest. As respects the completeness of information of many writers on this subject, the average southerner cannot avoid regarding some statements as did the two old Irish ladies. The archbishop had preached a fine sermon on married life and its beauties. The two old ladies, both with figures and families of ample proportions, were heard coming out of church commenting on the address.
"'Tis a fine sermon his riverence would be after givin' us,' said one to the other. 'It is, indade,' was the reply, 'and I wish I knew as little about the matther as he does.'
"In expressing the belief that Negro labor is one of the greatest assets of southern industry it is devoutly to be hoped that such expression will not be considered in the light of an attempt to point out any commercial advantage of one section of the country, but rather a desire to present the idea of the thoughtful southerner of today and to pay just tribute to the worthy southern Negro.
"That remarkable man, Booker T. Washington, pointed out to the people of his race that their only hope lay in work, hard work and efficient work, in the fields, the forests, the factories and the mines, in the industrial school and in the college and in the professions, and to that end never ceased his call to service. You will recall his wonderful address at the opening of the Cotton States exposition in Atlanta in 1895, which did more than any public utterance of any man to temper suspicion and race hatred and to bring about a better understanding in the south.
"While the utopian state in this understanding has not been reached and may never be, yet nevertheless we are day by day and year by year approaching Booker T. Washington's dream for the south.
"Having had opportunity to observe the application of the industrial principles Booker T. Washington laid down for the southern Negro, or, as to that, for all peoples, it is gratifying to bear testimony to the correctness of those ideas, if such testimony were needed, in which the best thought of the south will join."
Hermione Court's First Reception. Members of the various secret societies in Pittsburgh were out in large numbers at the first annual reception given by the Daughters of Hermione Court of Calanthe No. 33S, Order of Knights of Pythias, held at Arcade hall recently. Although Hermione court is among the younger members of the order, it is building up a large membership of unusually active women who have the interest of the order at heart. The male members of the order attended the reception in large numbers.
Research Work of Education Board. Researches which are being made under the auspices of the general education board for 1916-17 include a study of the progress of the education of the Negro as developed at Hampton and Tuskegee institutes. Other researches are a study of the Gary school system, preparation of a study into the best methods of training teachers for rural schools and a survey of higher education in Maryland.
NATIONAL EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE
President Gunner Issues Call For Annual Meeting.
ASKS RACE TO GET TOGETHER
Leaders In Work For Equal Opportunities and Protection of Colored American Citizens According to Law Suggest Holding a National Congress. Conditions Warrant Timely and Concerted Action.
The Rev. Byron Gunner of Hillburn, N. Y., president of the National Equal Rights league, has issued the following call for a race congress to be held some time in September. The Rev. Mr. Gunner says:
"By the authority vested in me as president of the National Equal Rights league I hereby issue this preliminary call for the ninth annual convention of said league. The matter of the exact date and place for the convention is not yet quite settled, but it is very timely and proper that there be no further delay in inviting public attention to the fact that such a convention is to be held and within the next sixty days.
"It has been widely suggested in view of existing unfavorable social, civic and political conditions confronting us as a people that the National Equal Rights league invite and urge all of our people, in all sections of the country, to unite in a great national congress of colored Americans and for the special purpose of voicing the feelings and opinions of the race on those unfavorable conditions now surrounding us in this country, and also to decide upon the wisest and best methods for combating color segregation and all other forms of color discrimination.
"After fifty years of so called freedom in this country, what is the prevailing condition of our colored American population? Briefly stated it is this: Our civil rights have been rendered almost futile; we are shamefully curtailed politically; we are denied equality before the law; we are not allowed equal industrial opportunities; our property and our very lives are not at all secure.
"The black horrors of lynching innocent colored Americans continue unabated, while our federal government's indifference toward all these injustices is but little less than the nullification of our great war amendments. Throughout the southland, and to more or less extent in the north, the increasing millions of our fellow colored Americans are being more and more reduced to the pitiable condition of political serfs and social outcasts.
"If such conditions do not stir our souls and our blood, what under heaven can do it? Do not the industrial opportunities denied us, the freedom of speech and of the press not allowed, the civic and political rights taken from us, give sufficient ground and reason for the calling of such a national congress of colored Americans as is herein suggested? 'In this fierce era of controversy and bloodshed' can we be unmoved?
"While the whole world is wide awake socially and politically, shall we sleep? While all other classes and races are on the verge of social and political revolutions, shall we be indifferent? Since all other groups of oppressed people are in the stir and rush of agitation, is it not high time that we should at least begin to get on the move?
"The south is still in the saddle at our national capital, rushing headlong with a most reckless disregard for the feelings and rights of ten millions of loyal, but oppressed colored Americans. Therefore, let us get together in a great national congress and fling to the whole wide world the full story of our grievances and of our earnest demands for justice and fair play. "Let all our religious, educational, social and political leaders among us heed this call. Let all of our great religious organizations and lodges and benevolent societies begin now to plan to be represented in this proposed congress. "By so doing we cannot fall to produce a powerful effect on the public mind that will greatly help us in our struggle for justice and freedom.
"This congress will be independent and wider than any present organization. Its deliberations will not be under the Equal Rights league, which will meet in conjunction. Faithfully yours, BYRON GUNNER. "President of the National Equal Rights league.
New York Regiment Gets Its Name.

AMERICAN PRESS FAIR TO
COLORED TROOPS AT FRONT
Brief Reference to Past and Present
Behavior of Our Fighters.
The behavior of the colored troops in
the present uprising in Mexico ts strict-
ly in keeping with the record of the
colored soldiers In all the wars 1p
which the United States has had to
take part. he line of thelr deeds
stretches from Bunker Hill to San
Juan and thence back across to the
western frontier of our country. They
took part in the civil war and won
fame with the Army of the Potomac.
The number enlisted was 188,000, At
the battle of Olustce, Milliken’s Bend
and Fort Wagner they bore Old Glory
to the fore, and, in the words of Ser-
geant Bill Carney, the old flag never
touched ghe ground.
In the war of 1812 at New Orleans
and on Lake Erie General Jackson and
Commodore Perry gave testimony of
their valor and deeds of daring. No
wonder the daily press of the country
speaks of their present and past record
‘as being equal to any class of men
which has ever shouldered a musket in
defense of our common country.
It is recorded of Baron von Clansen,
;a German army officer, who was a vis-
{tor to the United States during the
Revolutionary war, that in speaking of
the bravery of the colored troops he
isaid: “Of the 20,000 soldiers in General
‘Washington's camp 5,000 were Ne-
groes, and the best drilled and disct-
plined regiment was Colonel Greene's
Rhode Island troops, three-fourths of
‘which were composed of Negroes.”
. The Ninth and Tenth cavalry, the
‘Twenty-fourth and ‘Twenty-fifth tn-
fantry and the Eighth Illinois regi-
ments, with the regiments of white
troops, at the present time constitute
the flower of the American army.
Should this country become involved
in war with any nation or gevernment
it may rely on the support of its color-
ed soldiers, The Fifteenth New York
infantry, now in the making, will be
heard from in due time, ‘The fairness
of the daily press of the country ii the
preset crists is admirable.

‘The Fifteenth infantry of the na-

Broes to receive a New York designa-
tion, although not by any means the
first to be raised in this state, will be
recruited to full war strength in the
next four weeks if the enrollment of
new members continues at its present

Whitman for the purpose of orsauiz
ing the new regiment, and in this short
time 425 men have been enrolled. A,
B and C companies of the First bat-
tallon have been mustered into the
state service, with a total membersliir
of 200 men, and 100 men additions!
have passed the physteal examin:ttious
‘The surgeons who have been examin
ing the upplicauts say they ore the
finest lot of recruits ever passed on
for the national guard. Their standard
of physical fitness may be Judged from
the fact that despite the most rico
physical tests only 20 per cent who
apply are rejected. Poor tect aud
eyesight, frequent defects amon: white
‘men, are almost unknown among tlese
Negroes, who, it must be remembered
are largely town born. -
According to Colonel Hayward and
the officers detailed to assist him, (hes
are an unusually clean cut lot, iutelti
gent and keen for work. The meu have
no armory, their only adequate lead
quarters as yet being Lafayette lial
at Seventh avenue and One Hundred
and Thirty-second street, and almost
no rifles and uniforms. But notwith
standing these handicaps from 1 to 70
per cent of the recruits report every
night for drill, and the schools for
officers and noncommissioned overs
which harg Dosa started are ecterly
attended. e
A number of men honorably dis
charged from the four colored regi
/ments of the regular army baye en-
Msted and already three men have
passed their examinations for commis
sions, V. W. Tandy, an architect, who
hag been commissioned first lieutenant

national guard. Charles W. Filmore,
an ex-major of the Ohio national guard
and a Meutenant of United States vol-
unteers in the Spanish war, has been
appointed captain and placed in com-
mand of B company. V. H. Parks, who
has seen service in the Twenty-ffth
infantry and Tenth cavalry of the res-
ular army, also will be commissioned
captain and probably placed in com-
mand of © company.
It fs the intention to give the Negroes
every opportunity to furnish thelr own
officers, A request already has been
sent to the war department for the
assignment to the Fifteenth of Major
Charles Young, Tenth cavalry, the only
Negro graduate of West Point now in
service and one of the finest officers in
the regular army, and of Captain Benj-
amin O. Davis, cavalry, unattached,
who entered the army through the vol-
unteers in the Spanish war.
In some quarters it 1s hoped that an
arrangement can be made for Major
Young to take command of the Fit-
teenth. He has had thirty-one years’
service, Including service on the plains
in the Inst days of the Indinn fron-
tler, in the Philippines and tn Mexico.
Besides, he has undertaken special
service in Liverla and Haiti, in each
case acquitting himself with great sue-
cess. The most significant tribute to
Major Younz’s tact and personality 4s
the fact that he has never had the
slightest trouble with the white officers
under bis command 4
‘The present plan ta for one battalion
of the Fifteenth to be recrulted tn
Brooklyn. oue in the Harlem section
and one purtlally in Manhattan and
the Bronx. Recruiting stations are 1o-
eated at Lafayette hall, in Harlem,
and in Brooklyn at 114 Myrtle avenue.
besides a recruiting tent at Dean
street and Ttochester avenue. A
fourth compwy. D, has been mus-
tered in.‘
Althovgb the regiment will conform
in every way to the latest tactical re-
quirements of the United States army,
Including, besides Its twelve Infantry
companies, machine gun, supply and
headquarters’ companies, there seems
to be every prospect that It will be
complete at runimum peace strength

As has bee. said, this is the first
regiment of colored men to receive a
New York designation, but so long
ago as the civil war three regiments of
binek troops were rafsed in New York
The governor refused to recognize
them as New York regiments, how
ever, and they were mustered in as
units of the United States colored
troops, their quota of men, however.

‘mates of troops furnished for the war

BOULDER JOYS
The classiest and most successful entertainment of many years was the Mid-summer Musicale given last Thursday by Allen Chapel choir. The church was taxed to its capacity with the appreciative audience of both races, despite the appearance of the oston Symphony Sextette at the Chautauqua Auditorium. The three artists were strenuously applauded and enceded. Mr. George Morrison outplayed himself in his eloquent presentation of "La Greciese, Mezurka," by Moffat, and "Humoreske" by Dvorak. Miss Jane Hicks took her hearers by storm in "Chanson Provenciale" and "Song of the Soul." The audience was spell bound by the reading of "Death of Adele," by Miss Mary Thomas of Kansas City. The Reeves-Morrison String Quartet rocked the boat with mirth with its melody of fun. Misses C. Reeves and H. McVey delighted with two piano selections. The choir covered itself with glory by its singing of "The Heavens are Telling" and "Inflammatus et Accessus" with Miss Jane Hicks as the soloist.
A rare treat was given to the citizens of Boulder in the visit of Bishop Parks last Friday eve. A large audience greeted him. All were captivated by his most excellent sermon and by his great personality. The Bishop made most flattering compliments about the beauty and geniality of Boulder and her citizens. Revs. A. M. Ward and R. L. Pope accompanied the Bishop on his visit.
Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Ward were at home Monday evening, complimentary to the visitors of the summer. The out of town guests were Mrs. Bruce and Miss Bruce of Springfield, Mo., the Misses Mary Greene, Cora Black, Calley Williams of Kansas City, Miss Clementine Reeves of Fulton, Mo., Messrs.

TRAINING FOR SERVICE.
Successful Methods Used at a Virginia Institution For Girls.
In making her report to the trustees of the Industrial Home School For Girls at Peaks, Hanover county, Va. Mrs. Harris Barrett of Hampton institute says:
"Twenty-eight girls have been received in the institution since it opened. They have ranged in ages from eleven to eighteen years. Our success in controlling the girls has been unusual. Some of them never knew what kind words and sympathy were until they came to the school. If a girl goes through the day without forgetting a duty or failing to be quiet and ladylike she is given the privilege of wearing a pretty bright bow with her white collar when she comes to prayers.
"The marking system is used. When a girl succeeds in making an average of 98 per cent for two months in succession she is allowed to wear a white waist on special occasions. When she succeeds in making an average of 98 per cent for three months in succession she is allowed to wear a white dress to evening prayers and on special occasions. She is then known as an honor girl. When an honor girl falls to keep to the standard she has to go back to the uniform, but she is given a chance to start all over again and work for the white waists and dresses.
"The honor girls sleep in honor rooms and sit at the honor table in the dining room and have privileges that the other girls do not have. This makes the other girls work all the harder to become honor girls."
Some of the best white women of Virginia have taken an active part in the campaign for making the Industrial Home School For Colored Girls a successful institution. Mrs. Henry Lane Schmelz of Hampton, president of the board of trustees, has spoken in the north with Mrs. Barrett in behalf of the Industrial Home School. Mrs. Mary C. B. Munford of Richmond gave the school a buggy and harness.
A number of southern women contributed materials for the dedication luncheon and showed by their active service that they heartily adored the work of the Virginia Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, a work which will prove in coming years a blessing not only to the colored people of Virginia, but to the nation—a work which was founded upon love and service.

MELVA L. PRICE.
Valedictorian and All Prize Winner at Graduation. Exercises at Public School No. 158, Brooklyn.
THE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
Notable among the boys and girls young men and women who won prizes and scholarships at the recent graduation exercises of the public and high schools in Brooklyn was little Melva L. Price, the thirteen-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Price. During the entitle school year Melva received "A" in conduct and "A" in all classwork.
Melva graduated in a class of thirty seven and was the only colored girl in the class. Because of the high rank she held in scholarship Melva was selected to deliver the valedictory address at the graduation exercises. Besides keeping ahead in her studies she is active in Sunday school and temperance work. She has been the secretary of the Friendship Baptist Sunday school for the past three years, in which capacity she shows marked aptitude and executive ability. She is also an active member of the East New York Loyal Temperance legion, which has a large membership.
Melva will enter the Bushwick high school in September, where she will pursue the general course of study. Her musical education will be continued under Professor S. E. Gray of New York city. In speaking of Melva L. Price's achievements George L. Forbell, Esq., who is a member of the local school board of the Fortieth district, had the following to say:
"Public school 158, at Belmont avenue and Warwick street, furnished an unusual surprise at its graduation exercises held here recently. A little girl of the Negro race carried off everything in sight, intellectually speaking—little Melva Price, as unassuming, modest a miss as ever received a diploma. And it was not only the literary, but her manual efforts as well that carried for Melva such high honors.
"If a prize was offered for composition she won it; if an apron had to be hemmed, tucked, herringbone stitched, embroidered or what not, Miss Melva's touch was the most exquisite.
"Miss Melva recited the valedictory to her class. It did not sound like a recitation. It seemed ex tempore.
"The honors heaped on little Melva Price proved by the spontaneous, hearty, enthusiastic, prolonged applause from pupils and parents alike that equality reigns in the schools."
Press Association Official Dies.
The National Negro Press association, through Corresponding Secretary Henry Allen Boyd, reports the death of the Rev. W. R. Tolliver, assistant recording secretary of the association, which occurred at Nashville, Tenn. recently. The Rev. Mr. Tolliver was interested in many good movements for racial uplift.

TEXAS FOLK SONG FESTIVAL
Mammoth Affair Held at Dallas, Tex. Attended by Thousands. The Southern Negro Folk Song festival, which opened at the Fair park coliseum, Dallas, Tex., on Wednesday, July 26, for three days, was attended by great crowds of both white and colored people. The festival is being held under the auspices of the Texas Normal and Industrial Institute For Colored Youth and is indorsed by the Dallas chamber of commerce and the Manufacturers' association.
Among the leading artists are Mme. Daisy Tapley of New York, the greatest living colored contralto soloist, styled as "The Colored Angel of Song." Mme. Tapley sings in several different languages, having appeared successfully throughout Europe and the east This is her first time to appear in the south. Dr. W. W. Lucas of Meridian, Miss., is playing the role of humorist and dialectician, and Mme. Anita Patti Brown, of worldwide fame as a prima donna coloratura soprano soloist, is being heard at her best. Visitors from all parts of Texas and the adjacent states attended in large numbers. The festival will not only benefit the Texas institute, but the entire community. Southern white people have had a fine opportunity to see, hear and enjoy music rendered by the most cultured colored artists of the United States, possibly of the world, but surely equal to the songsters of any race.
Progress of the Sons of Virginia. The Society of the Sons of Virginia in Brooklyn is having a healthy growth in membership and finance. At the close of the first six months of 1916 it reported having added thirteen new members out of fifteen applications. The two remaining applicants are to join on Aug. 3. The record for 1915 was eleven new members.

VALOR OF TENTH CAVALRY WINS GENUINE APPLAUSE
Famous Regiment First to Face Enemy In Trouble With Mexico.
The New York Globe, commenting on the valor of the Tenth United States cavalry, says in its issue of June 23:
It was a detachment of the Tenth cavalry, brigaded with Roosevelt's rough riders, that had the honor of suffering at Las Guasimas the first casualties in the war for the liberation of Cuba. It is the same Tenth that has the honor of suffering the first casualties in a war which, if it occurs, will result, let us hope, in the liberation of Mexico from an anarchy comparable to that which afflicted Cuba.
The Tenth cavalry is recruited from Americans of African descent. Its stalwart troopers have an excess of pigment in their skin. They are men of color. But though their complexions are dark there is no lack of Americanism in their hearts. Members of a race that has had and still has good grounds for complaining of the justice of their fellow citizens of paler faces, no hyphenism taints them. The flag is their flag—the flag of Lincoln, not of Vardaman, and they are the first to defend it.
The Tenth is not only a credit to the race of which its members are composed, but to the country whose uniform they wear. The famous regiment's valor and manliness furnish a sufficient answer to the narrow minded race haters who judge men not by what they are, but how they look.
Council of Churches Works For Peace.
The commission on peace arbitration of the federal council of the Churches of Christ in America seat the following telegram to President Wilson on June 24:
President Woodrow Wilson, Washington:
The commission on peace and arbitration of the federal council of the Churches of Christ in America offers its greatest support for all measures looking toward adjustment of relations with Mexico without military intervention by reference to arbitration through South American republics or by such other means as may be found available. The commission urges every possible measure in an endeavor to assist the Mexican people in securing their highest welfare.

General Secretary.
PEORIA'S POPULAR RACE UPLIFTER
Citizens of Illinois Town Proud of Dr. Curtwright.
MAN OF BROAD SYMPATHIES
Former Worker Among Young Men Becomes Leader In Religious and Social Service Movements—Minister of Mount Zion Baptist Church Called "Washington of the West."
Peoria, Ill.—The people of Jollet and Peoria, Ill., have termed the Rev. Dr. Felix A. Curtwright the "Booker T. Washington of the west." This is because of his push and energy and what he is doing to reach the unreached members of his race and make of them law abiding citizens. In this effort he has the indorsement and support of the leading people of Peoria, where he is now laboring.
Following the completion of his education in Atlanta university, Atlanta, Ga., Rev. Mr. Curtwright came north in response to a call for religious work-
1
REV. P. A. CURTWRIGHT, D. D.
ers who could deal with the problems of his race. For some time he worked in Chicago, doing general uplift and Young Men's Christian association work. In this he met with success.
Hearing of a congregation of Baptists in Joliet, this state, discouraged and ready to disband, he decided to go down and see if he could encourage them and lend a helping hand. He felt that it was there God would use him. Reaching Joliet, he found a very small number of the members engaged in prayer meeting. He did not hesitate, but at once took hold. This caused the people to open their eyes, and they decided at once that he was a God sent man. They saw in him a leader of rare ability, the man just needed at that time in Joliet.
It was in May, 1911, that he took charge of the church. He studied the work in all of its phases, and, finding a large indebtedness, he decided that the first thing to do was to get rid of debt, because he considered it hard to serve God when laden with debt. The building could almost be classed with the ancient ruins. It was but a short time when the indebtedness of $412 was paid, and then the pastor filled the members with enthusiasm when he suggested a new building.
Having the confidence of the people and having outlined to the bankers of the town and other professional and business white men his plans and what he intended to do for his people, he was told by them to go ahead, and they got behind him. He believed not alone in preparing people for eternity, but to live down here on earth. "Teach men how to live and they will have all eternity to find out about heaven," was one of his declarations.
The Rev. Mr. Curtwright accepted the call to the pastorate of the Mount Zion Baptist church, Peoria, Ill., against the protest of his Joliet people, white and colored, because it was a larger field of usefulness for him and his faithful wife. He began his pastorate at Peoria in August, 1915, and so far the usual success that is common to the fidelity and integrity of a zealous pastor is evident. Already many new members have been added to the congregation, and, according to the report of the Mount Zion church at the Sunday school convention at Decatur, Ill., held recently, they averaged more than 200 a month for the last quarter.
The Rev. Mr. Curtwright is a man of vision and untiring energy. His plan now is to raise $1,500 this fall, cancel the debt against the church property and make necessary improvements to meet the demand of the times. He is also planning to put in operation the Booker T. Washington social center, which he has succeeded in organizing since he has been at Peoria. He is a successful pastor, social worker and financier. His social center represents the best who people of the community. His on board represents the best colored people of the community. His idea is to form a common basis upon which the two races can work together for the common good of the community. With his patience, experience and the assistance of his accomplished wife he is bound to succeed. He is broad enough to work with all denominations. He is president of a branch of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People.
HEROIC WORKER'S PLEA FOR PEACE
Division In National Baptist Convention Is Serious. LEADERS SHOULD CONFER.
Preminent Member of the Woman's Auxiliary Convention Calls Upon Warring Factions to Stack Their Arms—Attack on Miss N. H. Burroughs Is Not Supported by Facts.
The peace movement having for its object the reuniting of the two divisions of the national Baptist convention continues to gain adherents and able advocates. A prominent worker for Baptist advance recently gave the following opinion of the present situation in view of the fact that each of the two separate bodies has called the annual meeting for the same date.
The opinion says:
"The thinking people of the national Baptist convention anticipate grave complications in view of the separate meetings of the organization coming out of the excitement which sprang up within the ranks at Chicago in 1915.
"Before this break there had been created a feeling of suspicion, and it seemed that our leaders who were there at the head could not prevent the die from being cast.
"The leaders are, or call themselves, God's messengers. They should stop and steady the army. Men and women have an influence for good or evil. Why not use the good now and save the honor and dignity of the Baptist organization?
"The situation as a whole is full of grave uncertainties because President E. C. Morris and R. H. Boyd will not come together and settle a personal difference. Why should a personal matter bring dishonor and ruin to so large and well established an organization as the national Baptist convention?
"Our leaders should think for the good of the race. What have we, as Baptists, but our national publishing house at Nashville, the national training school at Washington, presided over by that strong Christian woman of our race Miss Burroughs, of whom any other race or denomination would be proud? Now, we can still achieve victory and bring about peace, but the whole situation for peace is in the hands of two men. We have every confidence that these two leaders are anxious to make all possible preparation against an overthrow of so grand a work. They should do the superior thing—get together, call a special meeting and try to bring peace out of confusion.
"As a member of the women's work auxiliary of the N. B. C., I, the writer of this article, say to the women, 'Let us get together; let nothing move us.' I read an open letter not long ago, written by that good man, S. K. Williams of Texas. It was a forecast, he said, of the disposition of Miss Burroughs to encourage the meeting of the women entirely independent of the men. I am sure that this Christian woman's heart is in the work, and she has made every sacrifice to make the work a success and would do nothing to cause a division.
"The women are entirely together. Their division depends, not on Miss Burroughs, but on the action of the men. It would be most unjust if Miss Burroughs' attitude was misinterpreted. In the peace movement she put forth emphatically that our financial, spiritual and racial welfare depended entirely on thoroughgoing unity.
"If the critics could but visit Washington and see the wonderful work which has been wrought there in six years by Miss Burroughs they would be astonished. Some work for honor, others for salary, but she who is being attacked by persons who are in every way her inferiors works hard and unremittingly without receiving adequate salary or sympathy. While in Washington recently on a visit I saw Miss Burroughs, head of the school, go down in the woods with a plexak and dig up a stump which, with the help of three girls, she brought up the hill to be used in beautifying the grounds. This is real service—service of the heart, service that knows no thought of self, but puts above all the love of a cause and of a race. This is but one case of her many sacrifices.
"Mr. Boyd has spent the best of his life, has made a great sacrifice of personal means and has contributed much of his constructive and upbuilding personality to making the work of the national Baptist publishing house what it is today—just as Miss Burroughs has made the national training school what it is through her heroic efforts and spending both her means and her personality in its behalf.
"The Baptists made it possible for Mr. Boyd to achieve all his success, just as the friends of Miss Burroughs has made it possible for the national training school to achieve the standard it now holds. How can Mr. Boyd chalp as his own that which he held in trust as property of the national Baptist convention and of which he was but the paid steward? Why does not Mr. Boyd present a bill for his share in the publishing house, which share can be bought by the national Baptist convention? Why does not Mr. Morris in bigness of heart step down and be a follower if he is the bone of contention?"

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.

Judging from the enthusiasm and intense activity put into the women's club home association, they will raise that $5,000 by September 15th. The Mason's picnic was besieged with "taggers" and yet only two clubs were represented out there. It is as tainting how well Mesdames Ada Webster, Gardiner, Bondurant and a few others are doing. Nearly $1,500 has been already subscribed and is being constantly paid. Men and women in all walks of life are responding liberally. God bless our noble women.

A large evening for the entertained and a still larger evening financially for the Masons was the consequence of the outing.
TWO PICNIC EXCURSIONS TO COLORADO SPRINGS.
As we go to press we are unable to inform the public how the two rival excursions came out, both of which were to carry large crowds. The Star deplored the rivalry from a racial cohesive point of view, yet we have rather enjoyed it from a business benefit. Go to it, boys, you both patronized the Star well, so both of you are scholars and gentlemen, we will let your friends decide who is right and wrong by the support they give you.
