New York,—Gov. Richard I. Manning of South Carolina as a result of the recent lynching of Anthony Crawford, at Abbeville, has taken a stand which promises to clear the the name of the State of the stigma which attached to it during the administration of his predecessor, the notorious Cole Blease Governor Manning, in a statement given out to the press on the day before election, said: "I was out of the State when the Abbeville lynching occurred. As soon as I learned of it I called Solicitor R. A. Cooper and Sheriff R. M. Burts of Abbeville to the office and called on Coroner F. W. R. Nance of Abbeville County to comply with the law and furnish me with a copy of the testimony taken at the coroner's inquest. I found that the coroner held an inquest, but took no testimony." He had instructed the Sheriff and Prosecutor to find and arrest all guilty of murdering Crawford. The lynching referred to occured on October 21 in one of South Carolina's most beautiful and progressive cities. Anthony Crawford, the victim, was 51 years old and worth over $20,000. He got into a row with a white store keeper named Barksdale over the price of cottonseed. It is reported that Mr. Barksdale called him a liar and Crawford cursed him roundly in return, whereupon a clerk ran out to give Crawford a beating with an ax handle. He was saved from this by a policeman, who arrested Crawford and took him to the municipal building, but when they let him out on bail a crowd of men took after him again, intent on punishing him for daring to curse a white man. "The day a white man hits me is the day I die." Anthony Crawford once said to a friend When he saw the crowd coming after him he went down in the boiler room of a gin, picked up a four-pound hammer and waited. The first man who came at him, McKinney Cann, received a bad but not fatal blow in the head which fractured his skull, but someone hurled a stone which knocked out Crawford before he reached any one else. The mob went back to the jail at 4 o'clock that afternoon dragged Crawford thru the streets of the colored quarter with a rope around his neck, hung his muilated body to a pine tree at the entrance to the fair grounds, and expended a couple of hundred rounds of ammunition at it. On Monday a meeting was called in the Abbeville court house, at which it was decided to order the sixteen sons and The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 daughters of Crawford and their families to abandon their $20,000 home and get out of the State by November 15. After the meeting this mob proceeded to close up all the colored shops in Abbeville The Columbia State, in a powerful editorial, pointed out that in view of the exodus of colored labor from the south to the northern industrial fields and the appoach of the new boll weevil, South Carolina's problem was to keep her colored men instead of serving notice on them, no matter how industrious or successful they might be, their case was absolutely hopeless. It so convinced the business men of Abbeville that they had lynched their own pocketbooks that on November 6 another mass meeting was held in the courthouse denouncing the mob's outrage, pledging law and order in the county, invoking state and federal aid if necessary, and planning a local military company and guaranteeing protection to all. Governor Manning has personally endorsed all this and will seek to have the legislature act against lynch law in the future. SOUTHERN RY. SUED FOR ALLEGED DISCRIMINATION Damage suits aggregating the sum of $50,000 are being filed against the Southern Railway Company, a corporation, in the United States Court for the Western District of Virginia upon the grounds that the said company recently practiced and imposed unjust discriminations against certain colored passengers in transporting them from one State to another and at the same time it gave to white passengers undue and unreasonable preference and advantages over them in violation of the Interstate Commerce Law. On the 18th of last August the Southern Railway Company operated an excursion train from Danville, Va., thru Lynchburg, to Atlantic City, N. J. and prior to that date the company advertised the excursion offering among its inducements Pullman sleeping cars. Five passengers colored, at Lynchburg, purchased tickets for berths accommodation on a Pullman car attached to the train in question but when they presented themselves, expecting to be accorded the use and enjoyment of their berths, they were positively refused and denied the rights, use, privilege an enjoyment for which they had paid simply because they were colored. It was insisted by one of the white passengers that the conductor either eject him or the colored people from the car and refused to surrender his ticket until the conductor told him he had put the colored people off the car. DENVER, GOLORADO, SATURDAY, DEC. 9, 1916 Injustice South Carolina Starts with "Jim Crowism" which makes Lynch Murder Easy. Brave and Wealthy Race Man, Anthony Crawford Brutally Lynched at Abbeville, S. Carolina. To the Edilor of the News and Courier:—Please allow the writer space to give his most emphatic endorsement to the article, which recently appeared in your solutions of Mr. W. T. Clayton, in which he denounces the lynching of a Negro in Abbeville, a man who was charged with no crime or misdemeanor, his only fault being that he was insolent and in this way had become obnoxious in his intercourse with some of the white citizens of the city. Lynching is utterly inexcusable and indefensible under any circumstances, but it is easy to understand that in the presence of a heinous crime that men might be carried away by passion and wreak summary vengeance upon the perpetrator of the act. In this lynching, however, there was an absence of anything of this nature and this fact renders it one of the most disgraceful and inexcusable crimes that has ever been committed in South Carolina, and one that will ever be a reproach to Abbeville and to the whole State as well, for which there is no such thing as blotting such an act of savagery out and Abbeville County can never live it down. Any excuses that may be made for it will only make matters worse and the only thing to do is to see that nothing like it ever occurs again. Abbeville, and not inappropriately, has often been referred to as the Athens of South Carolina and it is very certain that no county in the state, possibly not a single one, has given birth to so many distinguished men as has the one which has allowed this foul blot to stain her heretofore spotless record. The voices of her sons have been heard in the councils of their native state and they have taken prominent part in the enactment of her laws; some of the state were born within her limits and the decisions of her pure and learned judges will ever adorn the court records of South Carolina. On almost every battlefield of Virginia, and in other portions of the South, many of her best and bravest men made their country and state ever glorious by their heroic deaths, a willing sacrifice to a cause they knew to be right. Yet with all these recollections of the past its people stood supinely and allowed this piece of barbarism to occur. It is easy to imagine that were it possible these great men of Abbeville's glorious past would shake off the cerements of the tomb and rise in solemn and indignant protest against the living for permitting such an inexcusable crime. If anything could add to the horror of it, it would be in the fact that the lynching took place in open daylight and that there was not the least attempt on the part of the mob at concealment. If, when the sheriff first rescued the murdered man from the hands of the mob why did he not summon a posse and protect the man, as he had sworn to do, from the hands of the mob? Can any sane man be made to believe that the sheriff really tried to protect the prisoner? Why did he not use his pistol and have shot, as he ought unquestionably to have done down a few members of the mob? Had he done this, he would in all probability have saved his county from this burning disgrace, for while a mob may be composed of individually brave men, as a mob they are the veriest cowards that can be conceived of and can, as has been often the case, easily be cowed by one determined man. To make matters worse still, there is the finding of the coroner's jury that the man came to his death at the hands of parties unknown. The finding should have been, at the hands of parties whose names the jury did not wish to divulge. If it were not such a serious matter, the taking of the life of a man against whom there was no indictment, the whole affair would furnish an adequate theme for the basis of a comic opera. Was the sheriff so overcome by fear that he was unable to recognize any of the mob when it came to giving his testimony before the coroner's jury or to remember their names? He should have been put in solitary confinement until he could freshen up his memory a little and give in some of the names of those who composed the mob. But the writer almost forgot to mention the fact that the victim was guilty of the terrible crime of striking one of his assailants with a hammer. If the hammer had been a powerful dynamite bomb he would have been perfectly justified in throwing it in the midst of his assailants when it became evident that they were determined to kill him and take as many of them along with him as possible for they were more deserving of death than their victim. But while all this was going on where was the mayor of the city? Where were the police, and where was the patriotic citizen who was not, if it came to the worst, willing to sacrifice his own life to save the fair name and honor of his state and county from this inefface able disgrace? Had any citizen done this he would have done the county a greater service than any other man to whom it has ever given birth, and more entitled to everlast ing remembrance, for what is one life or a hundred lives, when, if by their sacrifice they can save the fair name and honor of the state and county THE LATE ANTHONY CRAWFORD. Murdered by a mob of white men at Abbeville, S. C., Oct. 21, 1816. Abbeville County can never again hold the place she once occupied in public esteem, but she can, in a measure at least, make some atonement by bringing as many of the members of this mob as possible to the bar of justice and seeing to it that they are adequately punished; but in the present low state of public opinion that exists at present in South Carolina (when it comes to the enforcement of the criminal laws of the state it is useless to hope that this will be done. One thing is certain, however, and that is that we must put an end to occurrences of this kind or we will soon have the very foundation stones up on which our civilization rests crumbling beneath our feet. The writer will in another article pay his respects, as the saying goes, to the people who make crimes of this kind possible by their silly sentimentality in trying to save men from the legitimate consequences of their crimes. A great deal of this is falsely called mercy, but the true mercy is in the rigid and inexorable enforcement of the criminal laws. Sending a man to the electric chair or to the penitentiary does not degrade him, for he degrades himself when he commits the crime. Lattimore Gets Verdict In Discrimination C Brooklyn, N. Y.,—Mrs. Jennie J. Johnson of 46 West 139th street, New York City, and Miss Theodora Randall of Boston, Mass., thru their attorney, Robert P. Lattimore of 150 Nassau street, New York, won a decision over the proprietors of the New York Restaurant, situated on the Bowery, Coney Island, for alleged discrimination, on the FIVE CENTS ▲ CORY. SCHWAB WILL EMPLOY COLORED MEN IN PLANT Baltimore, Md — That Chas M. Schwab intends to give colored labor a square deal at his big steel works near the city was asserted by his confidential man, Joseph L. Ray, at a banquet tendered him by representative men of the race here Tuesday evening of last week. Mr. Ray said that Mr. Schwab intended spending $50,000,000 within the next three years in developing his plant here, and would make Baltimore the greatest shipbuilding center on Atlantic seaboard. He said that 20,000 men would be employed, and that colored men would be given a chance at anything they were capable of doing. He said that it spelled good things for the race in the way of industrial opportunity. Others who spoke during the evening included John H. Murphy, editor of the Afro-American; Bishop John Hurst C. E. James, who attend the meeting here of the American Federation of Labor as a delegate from Minnesota; City Councilman Harry S. Cummings, C. C. Fitzgerald, Dr. William H. Wright and Mason A. Hawkins. Carrington L. Davis was coastmaster. Police Object to Sale of Negrə Papers on Streets Birmingham, Ala.—An indicated effort to stop the sale of papers published by colored men was seen in the action of one of the city detectives, Goldstein, who ordered a colored man, vender of Negro papers, to go to the office of the chief of police, as he did not want "Negro papers sold on the streets any more." Thg vendor, however, had taken out a business license, and other than being kept for two hours, cooling his heels in the cheief's office, was not interfered with. It is thought that this action indicates that when licenses are due to be renewed on January 1, 1917, colored news agents would be refused, but just how the police officials hope to be able to do this does not appear. New York.—A committee of prominent colored citizens with James Reese Europe as president, Chas. W. Anderson as treasurer, and Romeo L.

Their cases were tried on Nov. 16 and 17 at the 5th District Municipal Court, Brooklyn, before Judge Charles B. Law, and a jury. The jury awarded each of the ladies $100.

Zion church is settling down to the general routine since the Golden Jubi lee activities are over with a feeling of gratitude for the public's response and with a deeper sense of her obli- gation to continue along the high plane to which past history has lifted her. She can never forget that sweet spirit of concord and unity which dominated the activities of her birth week, neither will she ever be able to discharge the weight of duty which her fellowships have bestowed. But in the spirit of highest resolve aud a deeper sense of consecration she will endeavor to lift the character of her service to the measure of her grati- tude. ‘While the expense of the anniver. sary services was considerable, amounting to nearly $600, yet the af- fair was so capably managed as to leave a net sum of about $250. Too much praise cannot be given the com- mittees for their untiring and en- thusiastic work. ‘The every-member canvass commit tee is being organized and will visit the membership on the 17th of this month for the purpose of raising sub scriptions to cover the 1917 budget It is hoped and expected that eact member and friend of the church will make subscription “according as God has prospered him:” ‘The Sunday school is preparing for the White Gifts Christmas, the service which was so great a success last year.

MASH VISITS ABBEVILLE. Secretary of National Association For the Advancement of Colored People Returns From Scene of Brutal Mur- der With True Facts—Governor Says Law Must Be Uphold. New York.—Roy Nash, secretary of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, has personally investigated and secured the facts in respect to the lynching of Anthony Crawford, a prosperous colored citizen, at Abbeville, S. C., last October. Governor Richard I. Manning and the citizens of Abbeville have gone on record as being bitterly opposed to mob rule in the state. Governor Manning, in a statement to the press, says: "I was out of the state when the Abbeville lynch occurred. As soon as I learned of it I called Solicitor R. A. Cooper and Sheriff R. M. Burts of Abbeville to the office and called on Coroner F. W. R. Nance of Abbeville county to comply with the law and furnish me with a copy of the testimony taken at the coroner's inquest. I found that the coroner held an inquest, but took no testimony. "I intend to do everything in my power to uphold the law and let the offenders know that such acts will not be tolerated and that those guilty of violating the law must suffer for it." The lynching referred to occurred on Oct. 21 in one of South Carolina's most beautiful and progressive cities. Anthony Crawford, the victim, was a Negro fifty-one years old, worth over $30,000. He got into a row with a white storekeeper named Barkdale over the price of cotton seed. It is reported that Mr. Barkdale called him a liar, and the Negro cursed him roundly in return, whereupon a clerk ran out to give Crawford a beating with an ax handle. He was saved from this by a policeman, who arrested Crawford and took him to the municipal building, but when they let him out on ball a crowd of men took after him again, intent on punishing him for daring to curse a white man. "The day a white man hits me is the day I die," Anthony Crawford once said to a friend. When he saw the crowd coming after him he went down in the bother room of the gin, picked up a four pound hammer and waited. The first man who came at him, McKinney Cann, received a blow in the head which fractured his skull. But some one hurled a stone, which knocked out Crawford before he reached any one else. While he was down they knifed him in the back and kicked him until they thought they had finished him, when they permitted the sheriff to arrest the unconscious Crawford on condition that he would not take his prisoner out of town until they knew whether Cann would live or die. Cann wasn't hurt as badly as they thought, but nevertheless a mob went back to the jail at 4 o'clock that afternoon, dragged Crawford through the streets of the Negro quarters with a rope around his neck, hung his mutilated body to a pine tree at the entrance to the fair grounds and expended a couple of hundred rounds of ammunition on it. A meeting was called in the Abbeyville courthouse, at which it was decided to order the sixteen sons and daughters of Crawford and their families to abandon their $20,000 home and get out of the state by Nov. 15. After the meeting this mob closed up all the Negro shops in Abbeyville. The Columbia State in a powerful editorial pointed out that, in view of the exodus of Negro labor from the south to northern industrial fields and the approach of the boll weevil, South Carolina's problem was to keep her colored men instead of serving notice on them that, no matter how industrious or successful they might be, their case was hopeless. It convinced the business men of Abbeville that they had lynched their own pocketbooks. On Nov. 6 another meeting was held in the courthouse, at which resolutions were unanimously passed condemning the whole lynching project. LET THE DENVER STAR TALK IT FOR YOU.

Best Citizens Support Man, Repudiate Mob. “The day a white man hits me, that day I die,” are the words reputed to have once come from the lips of the wealthy and intrepid -cotton . raiser, Anthony Crawford, of Abbeville, S. C., who was so brutally lynched Oct. 21, 1916. A white man called him a liar, which Crawford resented, a quarrel followed, and Crawford, worth $20,000, was lynched. The best citizens of the county and state, headed by the Gov- ernor, denounced the lynching by the most emphatic language. Any man who has read Patrick Henry's speech on “Liberty” and thoroly believes in the sentiment, “Give me liberty or give me death,” better by far face deadliest cannon’s mouth and be blown to atoms than be a sneak, a traitor and a groveling coward and live under such conditions, Such a man was Anthony Crawford of Abbe- ville, S. C., whose body, like John Brown's, was horribly mutilated by the mob, but whose spirit went march- ing on, arousing true men and women to do their duty. This manhood was paid for in drops of blood and heavy beads of sweat—a terrible price, but sweet consolation for any truly brave man to pay. When more Ne- groes first count the cost to be a man and then BE IT, at all costs, more re- spect will be given them. It was not so much Anthony Crawford, who died so bravely, that we so gloriously hon- or, ag it is the noble principle for which he died; that self conscious spirit of knowing when you are un- justly treated and promptly and prop- erly resenting it. Even the, best and valient white people were touched with such bravery “of being a simple man and not being afraid to die for his rights. He that loses his life shall find it, and tho Crawford lost his life, he shall ever live in the memories of true men who do and dare to do right. May God bless his ashes which shall silently inspire others to defend his manhood even to the uttermost/ THIS MAY MEAN YOU.

WILLIAMS, SHORTER’S PAS. TOR, SHAKES UP CAMPBELL AT RALLY. Revs. Reynolds, Sawyer, Randolph and Ward Look on Pleased. “The people had a mind to work” was the text taken from Nehemiah when he rebuilt the walls, and it was from that text as his basis that Rev. Williams hurled his big trench guns of gospel hot shot and with an aerial flight of religious fervor, he would rain down from the big Zeppelins of Practical truth and experience, an avalanche of darts of duty, faith and loyalty, reinforced by God's limitless and abundant love for his children. The whole church was shouting and in a religious fervor. Collection time came and nearly $410 was put upon the tables. It was only the Sunday before that, that this same minister preached a $500 sermon at Scott and the next Sunday came back and preached a $400 sermon at Campbell. Campbell was thoroly organized and is working harmoniously. Reverends Randolph, Reynolds, Sawyer and Ward looked on and were pleased at the success. “And the people had a mind to work and did work.” Rey. Ward is all smiles. Communication addressed to the Star, which the Star was unable to answer, is published so that the sec- retaries of the various clubs will send the information in to the Star and we can publish it.

PUT CHURCH ON FIRM FOOTING Milestones In. Gareor Of the Rev. H. A. Booker, PAID. FOR OWN EDUCATION Thsia BMlveriLansere Hanah Goes pier dae ee hs Tete atari Mh ciara hh New York.—The appreciation shown to many leaders in the various lnes of religious and educational work by those among whom they labor is a most notable sign of progress in our social Ife. One such event recently took place at the St. Paul’s Baptist church in this city when the officials, members and friends united in @ mak: nificent celebration of the tenth aunt- versary of the Rev. H. Arthur Booker, the successful pastor of the above named church. The comvaittee! In charge of the) cole bration whe headed by Deacon Wil- Mam H. Turner. The auditorium of the edifice was tastefully decorated with'the national colors, potted plants and cut flowers. ‘The ushers ‘were chosen from the female members un- der the direction of Mrs. Jennie Small- wood. ‘They were beautifully gowned and wore their regallas, which desig. nated the auxilisry to which they be- long. ‘The efficient work of the deacon byard fs a fine tribute to the Rey. Mr. Booker as a Baptist doctrinarian, for os Ps eo the majority of the present members of the board were ordained and train- ed to the work since Dr. Booker be- came pastor of the church. ‘Che pro- gram of exercises was presided over by the Rey. Dr. Granville Hunt. The chotr furnished appropriate music, and Deacon J, O. Cross and T. R. Harper, a centiate of the church, took part in the opening of the program. ‘The following named persons repre- sented the auxiliaries of the chutch: Deacons, J. T. Ejwards; trustees, W. M. Johnson; Sunday school, Miss Ja- nie Freeland; Migglogary society, Mrs. Ritter Hall; ‘ated vy. Brown; lady yshers, Mrs. Janie Smallwood; B. Y. P.

De Ancy; the church, 'W. H. Turner, clerk. ‘The speakers and their subjects were: “Rev. Booker a# Pastor,” Rev. M. B. Hucles, D. D.; “Rey. Booker as Preach- er,” Rev. W. L. Lucas, A. B., B. D.; “Rey. Booker as State Worker,” Rev. G..H. Sims, D. D.; “Rev. Booker as Financier,” Rev. A. ©. Matthews,. B. D.; “Rev, Booker as Friend and Citt- zen,” Rev. J. E. Robinson, B. D. A brief response was made by Rev. Mr. Booker. The Rev. Henry Arthur Booker, son of William and Julia Booker, was born in Amelia county, Va., about three miles from Amelia Court House, in 1876. ‘As a boy he attended the schools in the county, but when he was still very young his mother died, leaving him, with three brothers and one sister, to make their way in the world as best they could with the help of a good father. Shortly after the death of his mother his father went to Rich- mond, Va., secured work and sent for his children. Here young Booker work- ed with bis father and then in other places till 1888, when his father dled. He then went north, going first to Stamford, Conn., where he remained for about a year, and then to Brook- lyn, where he was converted in the Bethany Baptist church, ,baptized ‘and became an active worker. It was soon evident that he was called to the ministry, and, feeling the need of Preparation, he consulted his pastor, Rev. R, I. Gaines, who advised him to take a course of study. Before his conversion Rev. Mr, Book. er had determined to take up the study of law and for that purpose had been attending evening school. But now, upon the advice of his pastor, he en- gaged to take a course under Professor Scott of the faculty of Klasick’s col- lege, Brooklyn, For nearly three years he studied under Professor Scott, when he was advised by Dr. W. T. Dixon and others to take charge of the Eben ezer Baptist church, Babylon, N. Y. He began with that church as pastor the first Sunday in July, 1894, having been licensed to preach in the previ- ous August. Here he remained, at- tending the Babylon high school till he graduated, and then took up higher studies under Rev. Drs. Raymond and Pimm, the object being to follow the same course as given at Colgate unt- versity. He studied thus till June, 1900, when he was called to the pas- torate of the Messiah Baptist’ church, Yonkers, N. ¥., where he labored with great success till November, | 1906, when, having accepted the call, he took charge of St. Paul's Baptist church. He is a constant student, a hard worker and a faithful pastor. The church which he now pastors he found, on going to it, to be in debt to the extent of $18,500. By 1908 this debt had been cut down to $12,000. The chureh was remodeled in 1910, making it almost twice as large, with light and splendid ventilation, This remodeling was done at a cost of nearly $4,000. All other expenses of the chufch have been met, and the membership is now about three times what it was when Rev. Mr. Booker became its pastor. The church 1s twenty-three years old and has had four pastors in all, Rev. Mr. Booker has succeeded in organiz- ing the church into good working shape, and there 4 a brighter outlook for it In the future than it bas ever had before. ‘The Rev. Booker was united in marrlage to Miss Lulu J. Floyd Feb. 27, 1805. They are the parents of three children—one son, who is a student for the ministry, and two daughters, both of whom are stu- dents in high school and faithful work- ers in the church. RACE LITERATURE WEEK. Novel Plan to Acquaint Our People With Their Own Authore, The ational buy a book campaign in the interest of Negro lterature had its inception in the fertile brain of R. R. Wright, Ph. D., editor of the Chris- tian Recorder and manager of the A. M. E. Chureh Book Concern, Philadel- phia. Dr. Wright's plan ts to endeavor to have every family of colored peo- ple purchase at least one book during the month of December. He has par- tleularly suggested the second week in December as Negro literature week. In giving his reasons for such a movement Dr. Wright says: Negro children need to read books which tell of the more hopeful side of their race life, and that Negro men and women need the same ix uo longer open to debate. No people that does not know and love its own history, enjoy its own Iterature, reverence its own he- roes, has e¥pr amounted to much. Can the Negro hope to be an exception? ‘The fact that the public schools do not give our children courses in Negro history and Mterature is being recog- nized by educators throughout our na- tion as a weak point In Negro educa- thon. To be strong the Negro child must know und love the heroes of the Ne- gro race from Crispus Attucks to the gallant Tenth cpvalry at Carrizal. He must know thé past achievements of the race in Africa and America. He ‘must imbibe the ideals which the mn- ste and poetry of the race are designed to jnspire. He must see the pictures of men and Women of like hue as himself, so that, acting upon the maxim that what black man has done black man can do, he may be nerved to greater accomplish- ments, Every home should have its collec: tion of Negro books of poetry, fiction, history and religion—not one book, but many, !n order that it may have its proper atmosphere of racial self re- spect, which 1s the foundation of racial progress. But, alas, we have so few homes with Negro books. Not one Ne- gro in a thousand has read a book on Negro history. The 999 are ignorant of their glorious past; ignorant of the part played by thelr ancestors in Af- rica and America; ignorant of their prowess; ignorant of their opportuni- ties. ‘The only mention most children of the race read of their race in history is that they were brought to this coun- try as slaves in 1619 and freed by Abraham Lincoln in 1863, . Not one in a thousand ever heard of a Negro aid- ing in the exploration of America many years before 1619 and of the 186,000 of their kind who fought to save this nation fifty years ago. And there 1s greater ignorance on the part of the younger generation than of the one now passing. ‘The Book Concern tn nearly 100 years old, and we therefore think it our duty to carry the light of literature to our benighted people, We therefore are asking that every public institution make @ public appeal in behalf of Ne- gro literature, We suggest the month of December as the time and the sec- ond week in December particularly as “Negro literature week.” During this week we should lke every Negro to purchase a book written by a Negro author or about. Negroes. During this week let the ministers talk Negro literature from their pul- pits; let the teachers talk it to their pupils; let every ilterary society bave a ‘Negro literature night.” We sug- gent Friday night, Dec. 15, at which time we desire to have every school and church of any size have some one speak of Negro literature. ee . sABshe “e A Talking Machine Free ‘ a | ‘With every 30 new yearly cash subscribers to “The ‘Denver ‘ Star,” at One Dollar. andffa Half a year, or for the tota; amount of every 30 cash yearly subscribers, who pay, in.ad- vance from their expiring date, One Dollar and a half each, “The Denver Star” will give a TalkingMachine, delivered to your residence, to each and every person who brings in the total cash amount of the 30 subscribers paid in advance.

C., on Oct. 21 by an infuriated mob of white men has caused the chief executive of the state and other officials of the law deep concern. Prominent citizens in many parts near the scene of the murder have expressed their disapproval of the lynching. Mr. Crawford was a well to do colored citizen, a business man of wide influence. Mr. Crawford's only offense was that of defending himself like a man, in a dispute with a white man who kept a store, over the price of an article which Mr. Crawford wished to buy. The Crawford family has been ordered from the state, so it is said, but as a guarantee that the Crawford family is to be defended in their right to live in South Carolina and enjoy the property accumulated by three generations Governor Manning has written Oswald Garrison Villard, vice president of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, a letter in which he says: "I realize the gravity of this offense and am determined to do everything in my power to bring the offenders to justice. I have called on the sheriff of Abbeville county to take the necessary steps to prevent any unlawful action with regard to the expulsion of the family of Crawford. "I am giving serious consideration to this matter with a view to making recommendations to the legislature, so as to be able to deal with such conditions when they arise." SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS. Twelfth Annual Meeting Scheduled For Nashville, Tenn., June 13-18, 1917. Nashville, Tenn.-According to an announcement, this city is to entertain the twelfth session of the Baptist Sunday school congress. Such was the report of the Rev. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the congress movement, the last week in November. The date of the congress, declared Secretary Boyd, is June 13-18, inclusive. The Sunday school congress has met twice before in Nashville, and each meeting has been largely attended. Nashville capturing the meeting this time seems to have been on account of a mutual understanding between the officials of the state convention and the congress movement after their recent meeting. Chairman Clark, who has served as chairman since the beginning, and Dr. R. H. Boyd, director of the congress movement, stated that there would be gathered here Sunday school workers and Sunday school experts from every portion of the United States. One of the chief departments of the Sunday school congress is the B. Y. P. U. department, which includes workers and members of B. Y. P. U. societies from every missionary Baptist church in the United States. There are fourteen other departments. One of the big features of the congress for the next year will be the great boy cadet encampment and the big Metoka and Galeda demonstration. Reduced round trip rates are to be granted by all roads.

The bargain was finally concluded and the pigeons delivered. Two weeks later the gentleman happened to be passing, when the dealer stopped him and asked him how the birds were getting on. "I don't know," replied the gentleman. "I have not heard from my friend." "Your friend?" "Yes; I bought them for a man in San Francisco." The dealer's jaw fell in dismay, and then, with a rueful laugh, he admitted that he had sold the birds so cheaply because he knew that on being released they would immediately return to their old home. But from San Francisco It was a clear case of the biter being bitten. Benefit of a Doubt. "That woman seems to know everything that goes on in the neighborhood.

By LAWRENCE LEE The Hampton football squad added another victory to its credit on Friday, Nov. 17, by defeating the Lincoln university squad of Lincoln, Pa. The day was perfect for a football game, and hundreds of spectators filled the grand stands long before time for the game. At 2:30 the whistle blew for the first kickoff. Hampton received the kick and rushed the ball up the field for thirty yards. Lincoln was desperate and put up a strong defensive battle. After a few plays Hampton fumbled the ball, and it was covered by one of the orange and blue men. Lincoln attempted an end run, but Captain John F. Dorsey smashed up things before any damage was done. Lincoln men finally succeeded in breaking through Hampton's line until they reached the goal for their first touchdown. Goal was kicked. Lincoln again kicked off to Hampton. The blue and white boys came down the field like lightning. It wasn't until after they had made a distance of half the field that they were stopped. Lincoln's ends were swept down, and the back field men of Hampton began to make good gains. The first period closed with the score 7 to 0 in Lincoln's favor. At the beginning of the second period Hampton was over the ball on the forty yard line. "Little" Harvey sent "Jelly" Meadows and Abe Mundy around the ends alternately. Both me made good gains. Rigney plowed through the line twice in succession, bringing the "great machine" within twenty yards of the goal. Harvey then pulled off one of his famous forward passes to Dorsey, who carried the pigskin over the goal line. Harvey kicked goal. Hampton kicked off to Lincoln, and the Collegians fought hard to overpower the Wasiders, but they lacked the wind that the iron men of the "great machine" are noted for. The game was delayed on several occasions apparently to let the Lincolnites get their breath. The score was tied, and both teams began a defensive style of play. The half ended with the score 7 to 7. During the time between halves the Hampton institute band played popular music, and the Hampton boys who were rooting for their team went out on the field and did the snake dance. The girls' voices mingled with those of the boys in the songs and cheers that went up to the blue skies for dear old Hampton. The second half began by Hampton kicking off to Lincoln. The orange and blue boys showed signs of weakness. The Seasiders took advantage of their opponents' weakness and drove them like madmen. Substitutes were beginning to take the places of Lincoln's regulars, but even this move failed to stop the onslaught of the "great machine." Hampton again pulled off one of those forward passes. Dorsey made a sensational catch and raced for the goal, but he was tackled so hard that he fumbled. Abe Mundy came to his rescue and caught the ball, carrying it for eighteen yards to the goal line for a second touchdown. Hampton failed toick goal. Lincoln received the kick, but failed to make much gain. Lincoln then tried several line plays with practically no effect. After being held for downs Hampton took charge of the pikakin and began to battle at their opponents' line, and Lincoln held them for downs. The third period ended with Lincoln over the ball. After fighting for first down without success the ball was covered by Hampton. "Abe" and "Jelly" began to sweep through the line for fifteen and twenty yards at will. Harvey swept around right end, placing the ball on the five yard line. Lincoln was weak, so Rigney had no trouble in making the five yards for the blue and white boys. Again Lincoln received the kick, after which a few plays were pulled off before the whistle blew for the end of the game. Score—Hampton, 19; Lincoln, 7. Touchdowns—Rigney, Mundy and Dorsey for Hampton; Ridgley for Lincoln. Goals kicked—Hampton, 1; Lincoln, 1. Referee—Henderson. Umpire—Allen. Timekeeper—Scott. Time of periods—15 minutes. ORGANIZATION SOCIETY OF VIRGINIA MEETS AT ROANOKE Presperous Old Dominion Town Host of Social Service Workers. Roanoke, Va. — The fourth annual meeting of the Negro Organisation Society of Virginia, recently held in this city, was attended by several hundred men and women who are active in organising school improvement leagues, better health campaigns, farm demonstration work, extension work and social service activities. They came from distant parts of the state to make reports on the constructive work which is being done by enlisting the co-operation of large numbers of white and colored people in social and economic problems. The reports indicated clearly that Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee institute, and his loyal coworkers have succeeded in winning thousands of people to the idea that communities, like individuals, make genuine progress when they face honestly economic and social facts and when they merge their individual differences into the cause of working for their best common interests. The new president of the society is Major Allen W. Washington, commandant of cadets at Hampton institute, who for a number of years has served the society as its treasurer. Major Washington succeeds Dr. Moton, the organizer and president of the society from its beginning. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, in his address, in part, said: "It is not easy to sever my official connection with the Negro Organization society, and I want to express my keen appreciation of the honor which this organization has conferred upon me from its very beginning in having me act as its president. There is no movement that I know of that is more unique in its makeup and that has offered greater opportunities for the advancement of my race than is true of the Negro Organization society. While this is my last official address, it is not my valedictory. "It has been very difficult for me to leave Virginia, my native state, and to cast my lot in Alabama, but I have received in Alabama most cordial and sympathetic consideration from white and black people, including state officials, from his excellency, Governor Henderson, down, and it would be hard to find a more loyal, a more sympathetic and a more efficient corps of workers than the 200 men and women of my race whom Dr. Washington gathered about him at the great Tuskegee institute. "In the first place, the Negro must have faith and belief in and respect for his own race. It is easy enough to give reasons why the Negro in America has hitherto been lacking in race pride. A few hundred years ago the white race was not the dominant race, and it had a hard and bitter struggle to win out. We must go through the same sort of difficulties." DUTY BEFORE PLEASURE. Gabriel Thomas Disapproves Worldly Trend of New York Colored Folks. The following questionary by Gabriel Thomas recently appeared in the New York Globe. Mr. Thomas' article reads thus: As your newspaper is widely read by the Negroes of this and other cities of the state because of its fairness to them as citizens I wish, with your kind permission, to ask a few questions concerning two movements inaugurated in this city not many months ago with a view evidently to ascertain if their race could do big things in a big way. The first was the effort to raise a fund of several hundred thousand dollars to establish in this city a Y. M. C. A. for Negroes. Many Negroes subscribed, I am informed, but few have paid in the amounts subscribed, ranging from $5 to $25, so that there is now uncollected something like $35,000 promised by Negroes to this fund. Quite recently a big noise was made in the Negro press about raising. I think, $1,000,000 for the Booker T. Washington memorial fund, a sum which the Negroes in New York city alone could have raised in less than thirty hours or thirty days, for it is asserted by some prominent Negroes of this city that their race has on deposit in the savings banks of New York over $18,000,000. Why have they permitted those funds to lag? The other night I stood in front of the theater for Negroes on Seventh avenue, in Harlem, and saw a line of Negroes extending from the box office nearly to the corner of One Hundred and Thirty-second street and Seventh avenue. The house was sold out, and standing room was at a premium. What is to be the future of a race that gives itself up to pleasure and permits other people to do the reformatory and remedial work which it is abundantly able to do for itself? The Negroes of New York are wasting golden opportunities in idle pleasures and imitating the vices of the white race. Their clergy and their leaders should call a halt and try to induce these people to stop and think! EDUCATORS HOLD GREAT MEETING Conference on Education Was Big Success. DU BOIS HEADS COMMISSION National Training School at Durham, N. C., Host of College Men From Twenty States For Four Days-Public Sentiment Approves Course Taken by Dr. James E. Shepard. By N. BARNETT DODSON. When the gavel sounded, closing the conference on education at the National Training school, Durham, N. C., on Friday evening, Nov. 24, after it was in session for four days, it was evident that the educators had accomplished their purpose. Twenty states were represented at the conference. The commission appointed at the conclusion of the meeting consists of Dr. W. E. R. DuBols, New York; W. S. Scarborough, president of the Wilberforce (O.) university; J. W. E. Bowen, Atlanta; W. J. Hale, president of the State Normal college at Nashville; J. R. Rendallia, president of the Lincoln university, in Pennsylvania; J. A. Colton, Henderson, and Dr. A. M. Moore. Durham, N. C. Dr. J. A. Cotton, principal of the Henderson Normal and Industrial institute, who presided at the opening session, in presenting President Shepard, who outlined the plan and scope of the conference, referring to the growth and development of the National Training school, said, "Slx years ago when the people awoke one morning and found a new school they predicted a Jonah's gourd growth for the institution, but it has survived all the storms that have come to it." Dr. Shepard announced that in the general scope of the work would be included consideration of duplication in the schools, whether wasteful, unwise and hurtful, and what plans ought to be fostered to correct the evils; the extent of teacher training and its encouragement and how and where located; what system should be devised to meet the needs of rural teachers; what should be the standard of the university, the college, the normal school, teacher training and secondary schools; how students should be received from one by another; to what extent religious training should be carried on in the various schools; whether there should be a general clearing house for Negro schools and whether the aid given by the various boards has been wise, helpful and economical. Out of the many fine ideas that were promulgated at this meeting it will be possible for the seven members of the commission to put down in definite and understandable form just what is the both method to adopt toward helping Negro education. Northern philanthropists are gradually learning that all mountainers of the south are not illiterate backwoodsmen who have never seen a train or heard of an automobile, much less learned any of the finer things of life. And they are also beginning to understand that perhaps the south understands the Negro and is willing to do her part, says one report of the conference. Wealthy people of the north who have wanted to help a struggling race have been imposed on by so many fakers that they are beginning to feel that it is unwise to make contributions to any and every kind of institution in the south. That feeling is gradually being replaced by the systematic campaigns of men of Dr. James E. Shepard's type. The commission, which is the result of the conference, will help to lay before the people philanthropically inclined the real need of the Negro institutions, and the indorsement of an institution by this commission or some other that will follow will be guarantee of the worth of the institutions and the cause. Masons to Meet in Philadelphia, Dec. 11 The annual meeting of the grand lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Pennsylvania will be held in the Masonic temple on Eleventh street, Philadelphia, beginning on Monday, Dec. 11. The growth of the order in the Seventh Masonic district during the past eight years has been splendid. Grand Master John C. Morton, whose re-election is favored, has instituted eight new lodges during his administration. The Seventh is the largest district of the order in Pennsylvania. Member of Training School Faculty. The National Training school, Durham, N. C., has added another able scholar to its faculty, in the person of Dr. William T. Amiger, formerly president of State university, Louisville, Ky. Dr. Amiger has entered upon his duties and will no doubt prove to be the right man in the right place. He is well qualified and has many years of experience in educational work, both as an instructor and an executive. Sahara Temple to Hold Annual Smoker.

Masters! Masters! Do you really need them? Ask your father and mother about masters; they sure know. The MASTER BAKER is doing his work, the MASTER GROCER is doing it, the MASTER MEAT PACKERS are doing it sure. Wait a minute. There is a new one just born and is saying everybody is doing it, why not me? Close your eyes and guess for a minute. This is the MASTER CLEANERS AND DYERS. To make a long story short, you know I pay for this space with real money, not saying like the big men, we will pay now, but the public will pay us back with interest. The City Directory shows in this city that there are 75 cleaners and dyers, of whom 12 are now seeking control of your purse, privileges and trade. They have employed experienced lawyers to assist them in taking the bread and butter out of the mouths of the workingmen. They advertise that you only patronize those who have the red label. Be not misled. Remember that there is no monopoly on good workmanship, reliability and responsibility. Now we announce that we are just as reliable and responsible as any of the MASTERS. We want to serve and please the public and not dictate and buldoze them. Our plant equipment and our tailoring and cleaning trade will show that we are on the square. Listen, friend, is your dinner pail full? If not, patronize the working man who helps to fill your pail.

I understand that a lady of Shoshone, Wyo., saved Mr. Roy Maxwell with a check, but when the reports were all turned in, Mr. Anderson wanted to add to his own amount and they refused to accept it, saying "It's closed." But Mr. Anderson was ahead of Mr. Maxwell by 22 cents. (Signed) MRS. G. W. ANDERSON. Mrs. Lue Doty of Colorado Springs is the congenial visitor of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Riley of this city.
