Negroes Elect Horan Councilman in District 8
EX-SENATOR FORAKER PASSES AWAY.
Was a Strong Friend of the Negre. Opposed Strongly Dismissal of Negro Soldiers in Brownsville Affair.
Cincinnati, May 10—Joseph Benson Foraker, former Unit ed States senator from Ohio, died at his home here today, aged 70 years. He had been in poor health since his retirement from the senate in 1909.
Mr. Foraker was twice elected and twice defeated for the governorship of Ohio while he served two terms in the United States senate from 1897 to 1909. He presented the name of William McKinley to the national Republican convention in 1896 and 1910.
He began his political life in Ohio as early as 1879, when he was elected as judge of the Superior court at Cincinnati. He resigned that office in 1882, and his ascendancy in politics at the time was evidenced by the fact that the following year he was Republican nominee for governor. He was born in the state that he represented. His birthplace was Rainsboro, the year 1846.
He was fitted for college when the Civil war broke out, but he answered the call for troops to preserve the Union at the same time that William McKinley did, and in the same way. Like McKinley, he offered his services as a private in the ranks, and became a member of the Eighty ninth Ohio regiment. In 1883, nominated by the Republicans for governor and defeated; in 1885 nominated for governor and elected; re-elected in 1887; chairman of the liepublican state convention in Ohio in 1886, 1890 and 1896; delegate-at-large from Ohio to the Republican national convention of 1884, 1888 1892 and 1896; elected United States senator to succeed Calvin S. Brice in 1896.
The Negroes of the United States should raise a monument in perpetual memory of this grand old man whose honest convictions on justice to all crowned his future with defeat. What say the editors?
Atlanta, Ga., May 13.—Henry Lincoln Johnson, an Atlan ta Negro who was recorder of deeds in Washington during the Roosevelt and Taft administrations, announced at a patriotic mass meeting of Negroes that he would open offices here tomorrow to recruit a regiment of Georgia Negroes to go to France under Roosevelt in case the colonel is permitted to lead a division there. Johnson added that in case the administration did not authorize the Roosevelt division the Negro regiment would be offered to the government for any services it might be able to perform.

Increased Pay for Firemen, Policemen. Teamsters and Laborers Carries with Water Amendment. W.H. Wright Election Commissioner. STAR TICKET WINS:
Because of the serious and unfortunate accident of Andy Horan Sunday night previous to the election when a tramway car ran into him, causing concussion of the brain, his enemies had him reported dead Monday and Tuesday. But the Negroes whose homes are mostly in district 8 stood fast and firm for Horan as the count so eloquently yet silently speaks out in thunder ing tones. The beauty of it all is that Mayor Speer keenly appreciated the three cornered fight between Spacey, Walsh and Horan, the two former being very strong with the Catholic vote in the neigh borhood of Mr Horan's residence, and Mr. Horan being strong with the Negro vote. The Mayor always maintained that it would be the Negro vote which would elect the councilman and it did. The fire and police boys are aflame with smiles and congratulations even to those who knifed their interest. Among the teamsters and laborers we are represented there, so this is one election where our interest was most vitally affected by the result. While our councilman is still in the hospital, The Star knows he appreciates our vote and will see to it that the Negroes in Five Point District are adequately taken care of. We congratulate the Mayor, Councilmen Straub, Conlon, Jas. A. Burnette, Bartels Horan and Zimmerhackel. Remember Negroes, that a man can only be free in a free country only when he retains the respect of his fellow citizens to the extent he receives the same treatment from them they expect from him.

New York, May—Hon. C. W. Anderson, ex-Collector of internal Revenue of New York and now State Supervisor of Agriculture, was signally honored to represent the race on the Commission that will entertain the British and French diplomats in behalf of New York. The ex-Collector received his appointment thru Hon. Joseph H. Choate, former Ambassador to the Court of St. James and head of the Commission Collector Anderson is the only colored appointee.
Washington, D. C.,—Thru officials and friends Howard University offered to Secretary of War Baker 300 men to train as officers. Among those in the delegation were Dean Kelly Miller, Prof. Geo, W. Cook, J. E. Spingarn and Hon. A. H Grimke. The Secretary took the offer under consideration.

The Louisville Segregation Case
The Louisville Segregation Case
The brief filed by Mr. Moor field Storey in the Louisville segregation case. that was re argued several days ago be fore the United States Supreme Court makes it difficult to see how the Court can do anything else but render a favorable decision. It meets and knocks out every plea made in favor of segregation. The old argument was made that such an ordinance is fair because it applies equally to both races. In reply to this argument the brief reads as follows;
In the present case it is contended that the difficulty is met by the provision that white persons shall not occupy buildings in "colored blocks." As well argue that an ordinance which prevent ed a denizen of Five Points from moving into Fifth Avenue could be sustained because it forbade the dweller on Fifth Avenue to move into Five Points. Anatole France has commented upon the absolute justice of the laws which prevent rich and poor alike from sleeping under the arches of the bridges which cross the Sein and from begging in the public streets. A law which forbids a Negro to rise is not made just because it forbids a white man to fall.
The last sentence of the above paragraph is a classic. Never before has that favor ite old fallacy about the law
SOLVE YOUR OWN PROBLEMS FIRST, SAYS ENGLISHMAN
London, May—Frederick Harrison, the famous historian and publicist, in the course of a long letter to the Morning Post in the "Irish Dilemma," says Englishmen welcome with enthusiasm the entrance of the great republic into the tremendous war, not merely because we are now fighting side by side, but rather because it manifests that the combined cause is that of civilization, humanity and peace. But does this comradeship in arms quite justify American politicians, however eminent and friendly, thrusting themselves into our municipal politics at a moment of internal crisis. As an Englishman, I wonder to see my stalwart friend Roosevelt and so many leaders of American intellect and statesmanship echoing the stale sophisms of our enemies during one of the most inveterate trials to which Britain has ever been exposed. What would Americans do if we intervened in one of their dilemmas—say, if one of the ministers, doctors and preachers were to summon them with a passionate appeal to
applying to both races been knocked out with fewer words We should like to reproduce here the greater part of this brief. However, we must quote the paragraph in which Mr. Storey answers the contention that segregation tends to avoid, friction, disorder and riots. The brief reads: At Palm Beach in Florida Negroes act as chauffeurs: if they appear in Miami they are mobbed and the result is a breach of the public peace. In some places they are attacked if they engage in certain employments which the whites wish to monopolize, and violence may be used in the effort to prevent them.
Would the police power justify a law forbidding them to act as chauffeurs in Miami, or to engage in any lawful employment anywhere, because they may be attacked if they did so. If so, they have no rights, if not, this ordinance cannot be maintained, for it is defended on the ground that one body of citizens take from another body their clear rights in order to prevent law less attacks upon the latter by the former. The only police man who ever fancied that such a police power existed was the wolf in his dealings with the lamb.
If this case is not won for the race, it will not be because the case was not ably presented.
raise up their 12,000,060 of colored citizens to equal human dignity, to wipe out the national stigma on the commonwealth that every man or woman born with a dark skin is born with the shame of exclusion and the life of a pariah race?
The city council Saturday appointed Dr. Allen A. Wesley, formerly major in the Eighth Regiment, and Col. Franklin A. Denison, head of the regiment and now assist ant attorney general of the state, as two representative citizens on the committee of one hundred selected to entertain Gen. Joffre of France, and his staff, who will arrive in the city Friday. —Kansas City Sun
New York, May—Harry Will, the New Orleans heavyweight, easily defeated Jack Thompson at the Vanderbilt Athletic club last Monday evening, in a fast and interesting bout. Thompson was a willing mixer, but stood little chance against the clever Southerner, who out fought him in every round. Wills weighed 206 pounds and Thompson 200. Thompson is a former Denver man.
L. A. Headen, Local Inventor will Startle World with New Invention.
L. A. Headen, 424 East 37th street, Chicago, has invented a submarine device that will practically sweep the Germans from the seas. It wraps the submarine chaser in a cloak of mystery and keeps the enemy from seeing it. Details of the invention could not be learned from Mr. Headon as he is a man of very few words. The New York World once said of him: "No one knows where he came from, where he is going or what he knows, as he says nothing." That explains it exactly as he is. Mr. Headon has invented several things, among which are improvements on air-ships, auto tires, etc. The U. S. government has just placed an order for tires to equip 4,000 army trucks
Last December Mr. Headon thought of a plan whereby submarines and chasers could not be seen slipping up on the enemy. He had his invention patented and then sought to get in front of the naval board, which was a hard matter, as his letters were not answered. Finally with the aid of Joe Jordan, owner of the Jordan building, 36th and State street, and a popular song writer, and George Liebrandt (white) of the Lincoln State Bank, he proceeded to Washington with Mr. Liebrandt. Not getting much satisfaction out of Congressman Martin B. Madden he sought his old friend, Mr. McCormick of Chicago, who arranged an interview with Julius Rosenwald, the noted philanthropist. Being much impressed with the theory offered, Mr. Headen was sent to Mr. Coffin, president of the National Defense Guard, who in turn gave him a letter to Capt. Smith, one of the secretaries of Secretary Daniels of the Navy Department.
From there he was sent to the Navy Board in the State Army and Navy building on Pennsylvania avenue. Some soldiers of the First Separate Batallion, District of Columbia, brought in the model and set it on the floor. At first the heads did not seen to take the matters seriously, thinking Mr. Headen had never seen a submarine, but when he told them of what he knew about them and their operations, which he had learned in Berlin, Germany, and the difference between those of the two countries. Then, seeing the model, they were completely carried off their feet to think that here was a man without the chance of a technical education along these lines in either West
Point or Annapolis, that had ideas if proven successful, that would revolutionize modern sea warfare. Wonderful. Denied every chance because he was of African decent, he rose. They were dumbfounded, for they themselves had graduated from America's finest institutions. They agreed to give him a chance. A trial demonstration would be arranged at the Great Lakes Training under Capt. Moffett, the commander. Mr. Jordan accompanied him to see the head of the Great Lakes Training Station The guards were dum founded to see one of the race with passports from the Secretary of the Navy.
The Italian government and the Japanese government are very anxious to get hold of Headen's device, but his loyalty to his country makes him give the United States the first trial. Success is assured. Mr. Headen was the fifth man in the United States to take up flying. Curtiss, Wright, Walter Brookings, Atwood and then Headen. The New York American styled at that time all the flyers after a bird, and often referred to Headen as the "Crow."
Professor H. B. Lemon of Chicago University will ac company him to the Great Lakes Training Station. Mr. Headen has invented an im provement on his device Mr. Liebrandt and Mr. Jordan have interested themselves to such an extent that his future is assured.
Mr. Headen invented a stab ilizer for r aeroplanes. The Royal Auto Club of London presented him with a gold medal which he now wears, bearing the following inscription: "Francia Aviation Co. to L. A. Headen, First Negro Licensed Aviator in the World Nov. 30, 1911."
The trial Wednesday morning at the Great Lakes Naval Station was a decided success as far as could be learned.
Atlanta, Ga.,- The Georgia council of defense yesterday adopted resolutions appealing to the federal government to use its power to stop the exodus of Negroes from Georgia.
Elizabeth, N J., May—The Mayor of this city is to be congratulated for the stand he has taken in the matter of the rental agents charging enor mous rents to the new colored workers who are coming from the South to work in the manufacturing plants of this section. A Socialist member of the Council has introduced a bill which will allow the city to purchase land and erect houses that will rent for nominal prices to those whose in comes are small. It is stated that the Mayor favors the bill with the understanding that there shall be no distinctive color line drawn in regard to the tenants.

the conversion of souls. The forces of the church are called to prayer. This year we have definitely set ourselves to make soul-winning our first and highest obligation to the Kingdom, and to it all else must become subordinate. The pastor, therefore, urges that every member of the congregation fall in line. What a glorious feast of spiritual blessedness we may have if we let Him control. Word comes from Pueblo and Colorado Springs, where Dr. Gordon has been and is now laboring, that those communities have been virtually "turned upside down." He is a preacher of wonderful power and we expect his coming in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Sister Emma Woods, who for more than four months has been confined to her bed, passed away Monday afternoon. At the present writing the time of the funeral service has not been set. The congregation greatly sympathizes with the family in this hour.

STEADY ADVANCE NOTED AT WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY
Commencement Begins Sunday, June 17, With Sermon by Bishop Coppin.
Wilberforce, O. — The progress of Wilberforce university for the current year has been of such a nature as to cause considerable favorable comment from various influential sources. The work of the president, Dr. W. S. Scarborough, the faculty and student body has been accompanied by skill and great energy. Another feature of note about the management of the institution is its painstaking method of economy used so successfully without pegelecting any of the departments of the school.
The commencement program will embrace the usual features, with some new speakers of national repute. The week of festivities begins on Sunday, June 17, at which time the baccalaureate address will be delivered by Bishop Levl L. Coppin, LL. D., of Philadelphia. Dr. Coppin is the presiding bishop of the Fourth Episcopal district of the A. M. E. church. In the afternoon of the same day the anniversary exercises of the religious societies will be held. Dr. G. F. Woodson is dean of the theological seminary, the anniversary exercises of which will be held under the auspices of the faculty of that branch of the institution. These exercises will mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of the theological seminary of the university.
On Monday, June 18, at 7:30 p. m., the annual prize speaking contest will be held, and on the following day the board of trustees will hold its annual meeting. The exhibits of the commercial, normal and industrial departments will also be on display, and the twenty-fifth anniversary exercises of Payne Theological seminary will be held in the evening of the same day, June 19, with Bishop Evans Tyre of Nashville, Tenn., presiding.
Class day exercises, the alumni dinner and the cantata entitled "Joseph" will each occur on Wednesday, June 20. The board of trustees of the normal and industrial departments will meet on Thursday, June 21. At 10 o'clock a.m. m. of the same day Professor Richard T. Greener of Chicago will deliver the commencement address, and at 3 o'clock the Tawawa hospital for the use of students and teachers will be dedicated. Professor Greener is a former United States consul to Vindivostok. Professor Greener while abroad represented officially Japanese and British interests in Siberia during the Russian-Japanese war. He is the only colored man to receive the Order of the Double Dragon, with which he was decorated by the Chinese government in 1902 because of his service to the Chinese in the Boxer war and for his aid to the Shansi famine sufferers.

POPULAR WITH THE MASSES

Chattanooga, Tenn.—To a farm back
in Randolph county, N. C., is due the
credit of having furnished one of the
most successful pastors in the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, the Rev. N. D.
‘Shamborguer, D. D., pastor of Wiley
“Memorial Methodist Episcopal church
An Chattanooga.
It was Sept. 17, 1872, that this suc
cessful pastor was born and commenc-
ed his early school life in the graded
schools or the county school in the
neighborhood of his birth. Let it be
said to bis credit that he worked his
way through school. From the gram-
mar school be went to Bennett col-
ie
A wake
Ga a
(a ‘qe

Ce eS
lege, in Greensboro, N. C., graduating
from there with the degree of bachelor
of science in 1897.
It was a great desire of his to get in
® position where God could use him,
as he felt that his mission was to
preach the gospel. He was divinely
inspired with the idea of spreading the
Word. But to do this he felt that he
should prepare for the work; hence he
entered Gammon Theological seminary
fn Atianta, Ga. where he remained
until he finished the course there in
1901.
‘The success of Dr. Shamborguer in
the ministry bas been rapid and inter-
esting.
For eighteen months he was the pas-
tor of the Methodist Eptscopal church
in Cartersville, Ga. This pastorate was
of much help to bim in his school work.
His real work after finishing schoo!
commenced at Goldsboro, N. C., where
he served one year, and the next two
years were spent in Lumberton, N. C.,
where he made a good record. Two
years in Ashoville, N. C., and from there
he was sent to Winston-Salem, N. C.,
where alx years of good work were put
in, making many improvements in the
church and adding to its membership.
Recognizing his service in North
Carolina, he was sent to Nashville,
Tenn., where he pastored the leading
church in that city for three, years.
He {s now in Chattanooga, where he Is
doing great work for his church and
people. During his short stay at Chat-
tanooga $33,000 has been raised for
chureh purposes. This young pulpit
orator is much in demand in all parts
of the country to deliver addresses,
lectures and sermons. He fs rendering
a great service for God and humanity.
The church over which he presides as
Pastor is valued at $75,000,
In Chattanooga Dr. Shamborguer 1s
recognized factor in racial matters and
is ever found in the front rank and on
the firing line when tt comes to any-
thing which means the help of his peo-
ple. He ts one of the men in the Meth.
dist Episcopal church that will be
heard from. He has made many friends
in the city and enjoys the confidence
and respect of the people of his city
and the state. His work tells for itself
and places him hy the side of such
men as the late M. C. B, Mason, Dr.

‘the auspices of the National League
on Urban Conditions Among Colored
People was brought to a successful
close on Sunday, April 20. Professor
William Pickens, dean of Morgan col
lege, Baltimore, was the orator of the
day. Dein Vickeus' subject was “The
Negro and Health,” and be said in
part:
The American Nexro has been so often
Aiscussed us if ho differed from other men
InAs relation to the laws of society, that
some have grown bold enough to im
that he @iffers trom otlier men even In his
relation to the laws of nature. That ef-
fort to be consistent is natural. ‘The ques
tion of the Negro’s health, however, ts
“not #0 Much a “race question’ as It is a
question of environment. It may be called
& class question, for it Is closely connected
with his econoinic and goclal status. In
brief, the Negro Is not sick or well be-
scause of ‘te color of his skin or because
Of the shape of his nose or feet, There
may be certain diseases which more read-
fly attack bis constitution, but that ts
true of all races in reference to some dis-
ease oF other, and perhaps the explanu-
tion fs bistorical ae y
Blan was scattered over the earth and
lyed in more or lesa Isolated groups for @
long perio’ of time. It happened, there-
fore, that one group had to battle with
certain disease more than did the others.
This group developed a constitutional re-
sistance to this disease, or We might say
that the disease weeded out from this
group thos: elements which were pecullar-
Ty eubject to its attack. It may’ be that
the white man of the past was more aub-
[ec to uberculose and’ became in
Gegree m:unized #0 that now tubercular
pacllll attack the Negro's constitution
“more really, and it may be that the Ne-
Fo Of the past suffered from hookworm,
[#0 that row hhookworma attack the white
[man more successfully
"But, be Cust oy it may, tt ts plain that
environment 1s the chlef factor and ta the

be worse for the Negro when he has tt

the Negro, llving ax he now lives, died no
faster then the white man living as the
white mon now lives, it would prove that
the Negr> is not human like the white
man. Another thing—the psychology of
the matics. (We have learned that the

Your Promises by Deeds.
The Star knows in no better way for lodges to do their "bit" in this war than for them now to arrange themselves into a kind of a co-operative body that the less fortunate brothers and sisters can and will be taken proper care of when the real famine comes this winter. Our oaths and obligations compel us to look after the widows, orphans and unfortunate members. What better aid, help, support or succor can we give them by us now looking out for these then or probably ourselves? The churches could likewise form some co-operative union whereby the poor and distressed members who had liberally contributed once to the church, but, for some reasons were either too poor, too sick or were unable to do so now, could be given proper foods by a little forethought, wise business dealings and management. The Star offers this plan to the lodges and their auxiliaries: First, appoint two men from each male and two women from the female lodges to form themselves into a large committee of the whole; which committee will lay plans and devise ways and means to buy a carload of canned vegetables, smoked meats and other necessaries of life. The purchasing power of a dollar now will be twice that when winter and fall strikes us. And when dollars are gathered together thru donations, assessments, entertainments, etc., and then used and their purchases equally distributed among the lodges to be there redistributed among the respective members, will show that the Negro is up and doing now. When prices of food begin to soar out of sight, our widows, orphans and sick brethren will feel it first. Let the lodges take the lead, Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias and other lodges; let us get together.
What lodge will lead off by appointing two good men, honest, with experience, and level heads? The wolf is knocking at our door now, only you can keep him away, but when things are different, who will take the place of a loved one gone to rest? Lodges, there is a tremendous responsibility resting on your shoulders. Will you face and solve it or be indifferent and dodge it? The little weekly newspaper men have gotten together and are buying newsprint by the carload. Why not Negroes buy food that way?
The following invitation has been offered the people of Colorado:
The National Conference of Colored men to be held in Providence, R. I., May 29, 30 and 31, 1917, will be in the interest of our race and country. It will be the beginning of the National Campaign to mobilize 50,000 colored men ready for patriotic service when called. Please respond. Joseph W. Henderson, Providence, R. I. April 19, 1917.

C.zens of Denver, passed away the 2nd day of this month at her home, 2433 Emerson street. Her many friends were always glad to see and to greet her. She was always sedate and assuming.

The community praised and honored her for her kind, loving disposition and sterling character. While her timely death was hourly expected, it came as a shock to the family and community.

And leaves us in despair.

EVANGELIST COMING—WILL STIR DENVER.
An evangelist with an enviable war record, "The Fighting Parson." Rev Dr J. Gordon McPherson, California's noted old-fashioned black revivalist; the Billy Sunday of the Negro race, is coming to Denver to lead a big old-fashioned revival and stir the Capitol City and awaken a deep moral and spiritual interest. Dr. McPherson is hero of the yellow fever camps of Cuba, and he comes with an unequaled record as one of the greatest old-time revivalists of his day, the only living rival of "Billy Sunday," the famous baseball evangelist. Thousands of white and colored people flock to hear this gifted Negro revivalist. At Colorado Springs, where he is leading a union evangelistic campaign, hundreds of white people battle nightly to gain admittance into Payne's chapel, A. M. E. church, to hear this eloquent Negro preacher of the old-time gospel. They come in automobiles and vehicles of various kinds. Nightly hundreds crowd the sidewalks around the building to hear this mighty man of God. Dr. David E. Overs and the people at Zion Baptist church are to be commended for their foresight in securing this famous revivalist to lead a big soul-winning campaign here in Denver at this time. Evangelist McPherson will close his Colorado Springs meeting in time to reach Denver to launch his campaign on Sunday, May 27. at Historic Zion Baptist church, which is one of the large religious edifices in the Rocky mountain regions.
It is predicted that the Capitol City will receive a mighty stirring at the hands of the "Black Billy Sunday," who has the record of attracting the largest crowds of any Negro revivalist in the world. His coming has stirred the religious forces of Denver and it is predicted that a record-breaking crowd will greet the famous soul winner on his arrival in the Capitol City to lead the forces of righteousness against the Host of Sn.

BOULDER NOTES.
The big attraction of the week is the dramatic recital of Miss Ruby Pettiford of Ohio at Allen chapel on Wednesday night. Allen chapel is rapidly becoming known as "The Little Church That Does Big Things." Secretary Bell of the Denver Y. M. C. a preaches at Allen chapel on Sunday in the absence of Rev. A. W. Ward, who is attending the State Sunday Mrs. F. A. Gibson is on the sick list. Mr. Lee Carter has gone to Denver for a few days to recuperate. Mesdames McVey, Smith, Kinney, White, Reeves, and Miss Fleming and Mr. Ridgeway took part on the splendid Mothers' Day program last Sunday. Mrs. Mollie Morrison of Denver spent Sunday in town. Boulder now has a second-hand furniture and repair shop just opened by Mr. Horner of Rocky Ford. Our people ought to feel proud of one of the race who sets up in business for himself. Chas. Austin speaks of entering the service of the Boulderado Hotel under Wm. Evans. Chef O'Donnell and Head Walter Evans have succeeded in having Negro help installed in the hotel rooms as well as dining-room. By special request, Boulder is to entertain the next session of the Colorado Annual Conference, in September. This means the planting of more beans and cabbage by the Boys' Club.

Two Thousand Attend Patriotic Meeting at Hampton. STUDENTS SING MELODIES
Thrilling Addresses by Many Notables,
"America First" as Keynote, Featured Great Sunday Mass Meeting, Warm Tributes Paid Old Veterans From the Soldiers' Home.
By W. ANTHONY AERY.
Hampton, Va.-That there should be no question of the Negro's loyalty to President Wilson in the present crisis or his unwavering patriotism was clearly shown in the addresses of white and colored leaders which were delivered on a recent Sunday afternoon at the Hampton institute patriotic mass meeting. The meeting was called and presided over by Dr. H. B. Frissell, Hampton's principal. Two thousand citizens were in attendance.
Mayor Thomas L. Sclater of Hampton, Rev. J. W. Patterson, pastor of the First Baptist church, Hampton; General Joseph S. Smith, governor of the Soldiers' home, Hampton; Colonel W. S. Copeland, editor of the Daily Press and Times-Herald; Rev. A. A. Graham, pastor of Zion church, Phoebus—all expressed in vigorous words the intention of white and colored people to wage the present war with sinlessness of purpose and with the determination that "Americanism should prevail over czarism and kaiserism."
Dr. Frissell called upon the Rev. B. H. Hamilton of St. Cyprian's, Hampton, to open the meeting with prayer and said: "We are all to go forward to do whatever is before us. We are ready, white and colored alike, to serve our country in any way we are called upon." From the Soldiers' home there came hoary headed colored soldiers, to whose loyalty and patriotism warm tributes were paid by all speakers. Prominent Virginians, white and colored; over 900 Hampton institute students, officers and soldiers from Fort Monroe, rich and poor, men and women of different stations and races—all joined heartily in applauding the patriotic addresses and in singing patriotic songs.
While the audience was assembling the Soldiers' Home band, which had escorted General Smith and his comrades, played patriotic and religious melodies. The meeting was opened and closed with the singing of "America." The Hampton chorus of 900 voices sang "I Want to Be Ready," "My Lord's Ardin' All the Time" and "Wasn't That a Wide River to Cross?" The audience also sang with spirit "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." Great enthusiasm was created by the singing of "The Old Flag Has Never Touched the Ground" by a quartet of Hampton graduates.
Mayor Sclater said: "Now, we have only one course to pursue; we must defend our honor and rights; we must prepare for all emergencies. Our people, white and colored, are patriotic. We are here to listen to patriotic and loyal addresses, so as to better prepare ourselves to serve our country. The people of our country are as loyal and patriotic as the people of any country in the world. Our country needs our service. We will all rally to the country's call. We will all be willing to serve our country with honor and credit."
Rev. J. W. Patterson said: "War is upon us. This is not the time to ask or answer questions. President Wilson did his best to avert war. What part are we going to take? This is not a question for white or black people. This is no time for race issues. This is our country. White and black people through their representatives have declared war. We have a common cause. We are all called upon to serve the country. The time for decision is at hand. We should volunteer to give our hearts, our hands—everything to the prosecution of this war. Loyalty to the country, love to God and than—this is our duty."
General Smith testified, with vigor and sincerity, to the loyalty and patriotism of Negroes, whom he has known so well as soldiers. Captain Ray of the Soldiers' home read a fine poem, "Off With the Hats as the Flag Goes By." J. Thomas Newsome of Newport News, an attorney at law, said: "I know of nothing that could give me more pleasure than to add my word of approval to the efforts being put forth by you to disabuse the minds of that small portion of the public which gives credence to the report that the Negro race in any considerable numbers will lift its hand against the government now that it faces a foreign foe."
Colonel Copeland declared that the quality of citizenship is measured by what one can do and is willing to do. "The Negro has always been found with his face to the front, following the flag," he said. "I wish I could be as sure of every other race in America as I am sure of the Negro race. The Anglo-Saxon and Negro will stand shoulder to shoulder in this crisis." Rev. A. A. Graham, chairman of the executive committee of the Negro Organization Society of Virginia, said: "The Negro will require no coaching or artificial stimulation to be loyal and patriotic in this crisis. The Negro owes allegiance to no other flag. We are one and inseparable as American citizen."

SELF-IMPROVEMENT STAGES
HUGE SUCCESS.
Fern Hall, Morrison Jaz Band, red lemonade and swelled fat peanuts with sticky popcorn, were some of the many entertaining and prominent features at the Circus Day program staged by the Self-Improvement Club last Thursday night. The big augmented parade with all nations and animals, the Dishman-Jones noiseless band of educated artists, the hipporhinoceros, the bare-legged bears and pigeon-tailed eels, also took a leading part. The horse trainer, bedded in red, the bald faced monkey cubs, the tailless hyenas, together with the dancing female dare-devil on an O. N. T. thread, proved wonderful, sensational, entrancing, almost a nervewrecker. Her graceful dancing and catlike movements made her appear in a class all to herself. The boxing contest, with the black and white faced cinnamon bears, was great. The real lady sneaky snake charmer, with a handful of scaly, shining, wriggling snakes, caused the vast crowd to momentarily stop breathing, so daring and bold was she. The monkey and the baboon band caused much laughter, as did the bear-hugging walrus wallowing contest. The fine, well studied, well planned, original ideas and clever manipulations with all kinds of animal presentations were very creditably wrought out and deserve great credit to the S. I. and S. Club. The show was odd, peculiar and on the extravaganza style. Morrison orchestra played "Maggle" as never before. The club which does the common and ordinary things in such an uncommon, up-to-date and odd manner easily added another bright star to their crown of successes.
Keep off the date, June 7th, because it's a diamond ring contest of Evergreen Chapter, O. E. S., at Old Colony Hall.

How many of us realize how much the other fellow can help us achieve what we are working for?
How many of us realize how much we will help ourselves by boosting our competitor instead of knocking him?
To those of us who do not, the above picture, from Armour, will carry its own message. No amount of reasoning or logic could show any more clearly and definitely just what cooperation means.
Let's all apply it to our own business this year and wait for results.
NEGROES, STUDY THIS PICTURE.
THEN ACT.
The Star prints the above lesson in order to convince some of the most skeptical Negroes of Denver and Colorado, as well as elsewhere, what it will mean for ten millions of Negroes whose minds, hearts, objects, purposes, ambitions and work are doggedly set up on one certain thing—elimination of all caste, prejudice and inequality for every one—or certain things of uplift to humanity, and what a unified action can do. This lesson applies to Negroes who patronize others than their own in business, even if you or they don't like the man or men running in business. Patronize him or his competitor of color. Every nickel taken from the business and professional man of color only weakens him and strengthens the chains of prejudice and unfair competition upon your necks, besides helping the race who least need your
Dr. King's New Life Pills will remove the accumulated wastes of winter from your intestines, the burden of the blood. Get that sluggish spring fever feeling out of your system, brighten your eye, clear your complexion. Get that vim and snap 'of purified healthy blood. Dr. King's New Life Pills are a non-gripping laxative that aids nature's process, try them tonight. At all drugs, 25c.
help. We are our own masters, if we would rightly and intelligently use what means which are ours. Think of 100 Negroes putting $1 aside a month in a colored company or in a bank and buying pigs, horses, cattle, chickens, turkeys and Belgian hares and putting those animals on the ranches of our Negro farmers, what would it mean in two years to the farmer, yourself and our Denver community? A Negro auto transportation service, a Negro commission merchant and produce dealer, Negro distributor of eggs and poultry to Capitol Hill customers and a Negro general store in the farmers' settlement all because Denver and Colorado Negroes are working together. Study this picture and wisely develop your money and brains.
Again, let us suppose every female who needed such an article would patronize the only corset maker in Denver and in Colorado, Miss Beatrice Lewis, in one week she would be compelled to hire extra help. Suppose that in July, when the Prince Hall chapter of the O. E. S. meets in Colorado Springs, that the women have exhibits and displays for their inspection, thoroughly showing that co-operative spirit. When the calves decided to get together for their own benefit first all opposition failed, Unity leads to conference which will ultimately result into co-operation, so stick together if you have to hang together in parts. Success crowns all co-operative efforts.
Chilren suffering from worms are dull and irritable, puny and weak, often grind their teeth and cry out in sleep, being a constant source of worry to their parents. Kickapoo Worm Killer is a mild laxative remedy in candy tablet form that children like to take. Promptly effective, it kills and removes the worm from the system. Irregular appetite and bowel movement, lack of interest in play are sure signs of worms. Relieve your child of this burden. At all druggists, 25c.
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING
Spingarn Medal Award and Race Migration Among Topics Discussed.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Washington.-The annual conference of the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, meeting in this city at the First Congregational church. Tenth and G streets Northwest, on Wednesday and Thursday, May 16 and 17, embraces many important features. The first big item on Wednesday evening, besides the addresses of Dean William Pickens of Morgan college, Baltimore, and Charles Edward Russell of New York, is the awarding of the Spingarn medal to the successful candidate.
This medal, costing $100, is given annually by Dr. J. E. Spingarn of New York to the man or woman of the Negro race in America who performs the highest and most distinguished service during the fiscal year of the as-
TOMMY BROWN
AND
JOHN BROWN
sociation. This year United States Senator Wesley L. Jones of the state of Washington was chosen to present the medal. Senator Jones is a stanch friend of equal rights for the colored people as well as for all other true and loyal American citizens. Last year, 1916, the medal was awarded to Lieutenant Colonel Charles Young for his services in reorganizing the constabulary of Liberia. The first medal was conferred upon Dr. E. E. Just of Howard university for his original researches in biology. The afternoon of Thursday, the 17th, was devoted to an open conference on the exodus and the pressing problems growing out of the war. Not only our own branches, but leaders and organizations of all kinds, are cordially invited to take counsel with the National Association For the Advancement of Colored People, says Mr. Roy Nash, secretary of the association.
REPORTS ON HEALTH WEEK.
Contest In Cleanup Work Has Elicited Favorable Comments.
The announcement of the contest for the best cleanup work during the national Negro health week, held from April 22 to 28, has elicited most favorable comments from white and colored people in all sections of the south. Letters from various committees organized to conduct cleanup campaigns indicate that the interest in this movement for better health is unsurpassed by that of any other similar movement conducted among our people.
President J. C. Napier of the National Negro Business league spent several days recently at Tuskegee institute in conference with Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal, and Emmett J. Scott, secretary. It was agreed that all the communities planning to report their clean up activities for consideration in connection with the silver cups offered by the national clean up and paint up bureau should send their reports to the Tuskegee institute.
It is worth while to bear in mind three important conditions regarding the contest—first, the reports should not exceed 700 words; second, the reports should all be typewritten; third the reports should be mailed to the secretary, National Negro Business league, Tuskegee institute, Alabama.
We Pledge Allegiance to Our Flag Only
The numerous offers by groups of colored men throughout the country to recruit companies for service in the present crisis of the nation has given the lie to the rumor current in some sections that the colored people are not loyal to the flag. The race owes no allegiance to any other country not honors any other national emblem but the Stars and Stripes. No wonder Colonel W. S. Copeland of Hampton Va., says, "German intrigue cannot corrupt colored Americans."
REPORT ON CHURCH FUNDS
Finance: Secretary John R. Hawkins
Tella Where the Money Goes
The recent annual meeting of the financial board of the A. M. E. church held in Washington, was well attended by the members of the board from the various sections. Bishop B. F. Lee presided and expressed his views concerning the progress of the work in a very encouraging manner. The financial progress and strength of the denomination were shown by the splendid reports submitted at the meeting.
The report of Professor John R. Hawkins', financial secretary of the board, covered a wide scope of the activities of the conference and was a masterpiece in clearness and detail. The largest amount received from any one district was $30,705.74, from the state of Georgia. This amount is considered a remarkable showing and a fine tribute to the ministers and churches in that state.
The Florida district, over which Bishop John Hurst presides, also made a splendid record, notwithstanding the race migration from Florida. The
P. A.
PROFESSOR J. R. HAWKINS.
churches in Bishop Hurst's district raised $10,475.85, which is an increase over the past year of $1,133.80.
The second Episcopal district, which includes the Baltimore conference, reported $18,564.00, which was $431.21 more than last year. Of this the Baltimore conference raised $6,948.60, an increase of $113. Of the big sum raised by the denomination $89,518.43 was for the general needs of the church, $80,588.58 went to annual conferences for local needs, and the departments of church extension, missions and education each received $17,903.68.
Dr. J. H. Tompkins and J. H. Murphy were on hand to make a plea for Bethel church, Baltimore. They were given every consideration, and the board voted the congregation $500. Among other appropriations were generous sums to twelve schools, $100 each to the Western Christian Recorder, the Southern Christian Recorder and Bethel church, Philadelphia. Professor Hawkins was highly commended for the businesslike way in which he handles the finances as well as his sticking out for paying of all money in accordance with the laws of the church. Not one of his recommendations was turned down.
DUNBAR'S DEATHBED POEM.
Kansas City Times Publishes Famous Singer's Last Verses.
Some time previous to his death Paul Laurence Dunbar, the most gifted poet of our race, sent two stanzas of one of his unpublished poems to the Hon. N. Clark Smith, supervisor of music in the Kansas City public schools, who set them to music. The Kansas City Times recently came into possession of these verses through Mr. Smith.
The Times says:
"Dunbar was on his deathbed in Chicago when he received the music for the song, whereupon he wrote a third stanza, which he forwarded to the composer, written on a postal card with these words:
"Your music, my dear sir, is very pretty. I add another stanza, which I think is not so good as the others."
Sweet dreams attend thee in thy sleep.
To soothe thy rest till morning's light.
And angels round thee vigil keep.
Good night, my love, good night, good
night.
Sleep well, my love, on night's dark
breast.
When in silent hours in somber flight.
Be thou in silent slumber blest.

SMART SET ATHLETIC CLUB'S SIXTH ANNUAL CARNIVAL
Howard Drew Losses In Sensations!
Race With Andy Kelly.
By N. BARNETT DODSON.
Brooklyn.—The most notable event in athletic and social circles in this city for the second week in April was the sixth annual monster athletic carnival, games and dance of the famous Smart Set Athletic club. The event took place at the Thirteenth regiment armory and was attended by thousands, who gathered early to get a good look at Howard Drew in action. Music was furnished by the New Amsterdam Military band.
The crowd was euthusiastic throughout the program of attractions, but it went wild when the time came for Howard Drew to make his appearance. The band was compelled to play several selections before one could accerately tell what was going on. Finally the band struck up "The Star Spangled Banner." In an instant hats were off and every one was at attention. Then came the dead heat in the 100 yard dash between Drew and Andy Kelly of Holy Cross college.
The two noted sprinters got on the mark and at the crack of the gun fairly dwelt to the tape. The finish was so close that the judges after several minutes' discussion were undecided which had won and therefore agree to have the men run again. They go back to the starting point, and when the signal was given Drew got off 1. championship speed and led Kelly for about eighty yards, but Kelly overtook him and finished with margin enough to leave no doubt in anybody's mind that he had won.
Fred Pollard of Brown university football fame demonstrated his skill as a hurdler in the special sixty yard low hurdle event, defeating Arthur Engles and John J. Eller. The three mile championship race of the National Cycling association was won by Eddie Goodwin of the Irish-American Athletic club. Eight cyclers were in the contest.
Members of the board of governors were at pains to see that everything possible was done for the comfort and enjoyment of their guests. The board consists of the following named well known Brooklynites: J. Hoffman Woods, chairman; George W. Lattimore, secretary; William F. Trotman treasurer; Oscar A. Scottron, Edwin F. Horne, Sr.; Frederick B. Watkins, Philp M. Thorne, George H. Wright, Robert P. Lattimore, Lester A. Wailton, Alonzo F. Chadwick, Jr.; Louis E. Baxter, George W. Harris and Charles E. Conick.
Rev. James Enoch Churchman Dies.
By the death of the Rev. James Enoch Churchman of 78 Oakwood avenue, Orange, N. J., at St. Mary's hospital, in Orange, on April 23, the race loses one of its ablest young men. The Rev. Mr. Churchman was organizer for the National Equal Rights league, a business man and an eloquent preacher. He was a member of several organizations for the civic and social betterment of the race, in each of which he played an important part. Mr. Churchman's last great public address was delivered in Faneuil hall, Boston, at the celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Frederick Douglass, Feb. 14. The Rev. Mr. Churchman was forty-three years of age.

I'M GOING TO FIGHT FOR DIXIE LAND AND DEAR OLD UNCLE SAM.
I've done closed up my barber shop,
And packed up all my tools.
I've closed my old log cabin up, loaned
Uncle Sam my mules.
My Uncle Sam has called on me to
Come and do my stunt.
I'm going to don a soldier's suit and
Rush right to the front.
CHORUS:
I'm going to fight for Dixie and dear
Old Uncle Sam
You bet I am that's no flim flam
And when the drums are beating, you
Won't find me retreating
Nor trembling like a lamb.
I'm going in like a lion, don't care how
They're firin'
This battle ain't no sham.
You'll find me most defying, you'll
Hear me loudly crying
I'm going to fight for Dixie Land
And dear old Uncle Sam.
II.
I'm going to take my razors long,
I'll use them in a clutch
When I get through slashing round
They'll find I ain't no cinch.
The musket is a grand old thing,
It shoots most fast and loud
But a razor is the only thing
To fight with in a crowd.
"Irving Jones."
Men make circumstances; circum-
stances make duties, and duty is destiny.
"God give us men! A time like this
demands
Strong hands, great hearts, true
faith, and ready hands.
Men whom the lust of office does not
kill;
Men whom the spoils of office can-
not buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who have honor, and who will
not lie;
Men who can stand before a demogogue
And scorn his treacherous flatteries without winking.
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog
In public duty and in private thinking!
