BARRY ORDERS RESPECT FOR NEGRO TROOPS
Camp Grant, Rockford Ill. Negro soldiers must be treated with courtesy and respect, General Barry told every commissioned officer in camp today at a meeting In the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium.
Fourteen hundred selected Negroes will arrive tomorrow. About 100 Negro officers from the Fort Des Moines training camp are due Nov. 1. For the first time in the army's history Negroes will hold rank as high as captain.
General Barry believes firmly a "race problem" cannot develop if common sense and adherence to military practice prevails.
He admonished every man under his command to remember qualities of heart and spirit are the measure of a man, not the color of his skin.
The General predicted the Negroes would behave in camp and on the battlefield, as well as the white men. Their valor was unquestioned, he said, and they are as patriotic.
That officers and soldiers must exchange salutes with Negroes was implied in an eloquent reference to the salute as an institution.
He pointed out that the salute is the army's method of exchanging greetings, and that good officers are ever on the alert to salute each other and enlisted men.
Saluting was no more service, he declared than an exchange of greetings between gentlemen in a business corporation.
General Barry also cautioned his officers against laying hands on enlisted men or inflicting any punishment or humiliation except as prescribed in army regulations.
That some Fort Sheridan men may be eliminated was indicated by the appointment to pay to hear charges of inefficiency, temperamental handicaps or other disqualifications
Lieutenant Colonels Willis T. Coleman and W. T. Pendleton of The Hundred and Forty-Third Infantry and William S. Faulkner of the Three Hundred and Forty-fourth comprises the board
General Barry received a telegram today from Adjutant General Dickson announcing that Govenor Lowden would visit the cantonment Nov. 1. County Judge Scully, Chief Clerk Dennis J. Eagan of the election board and Representative John S. Burns and assistant brought 30,000 applications for absentee voters' bail lots to camp today. Arrangements were made for Chicago men to participate in the judicial election Nov. 6. (Oct.26.)
TWENTY-NINTH YEAR
WHITE SERGEANT REFUSE SAL UTATION TO NEGRO OFFICER
Louisville, Ky.—Captain William Glass, Negro reserve officer on furlough here, after having received a commission at Des Moines, Ia., halted three white sergeants on the main business street of Louisville today, and after arraigning them severely, turned them over to the military police for detention because they refused to salute him. Hundreds of pedestrians crowded around the Negro officer when he seized one of the sergeants who refused to recognize his rank. Although comment was bitter no move was made to interfere with military procedure.
Here is again the old question, and nearly humorous, owing of course to the known views of the races. It is to be hoped that our newly made officers will do the very best thing to conserve peace. We take it that most white soldiers will gladly honor Negro officers, for in event of their common appearance on the battle front they will gladly consent that Negro officers and soldiers also suffer and die for the great cause for which they are fighting.
Publications of the South, where we hold that men are most prejudiced, have been saying that the white soldier of that section will not feel it their duty alone to fight for the country while the Negroes remain home in security. This means very much more than appears on the surface. It means a welcome to the Negroes in arms and an appreciation of whatever relation they sustain to the army. There may be incidents where young high-born Southern white men or Northern-born white men refuse to see the "straps" on the shoulders of Negroes. Nor do we think this should be thought apart from the race question. There is a way of knowing just about how far the color question goes.
Our officers can help very much in thinking out the best individual program of conduct Freeman
Baltimore, Md.- The will of Dr Reverdy M. Hall, filed for probate in the Orphan's Cort Thursday leaves practically all of his $100,000 estate to his family. His widow, Mrs.F. Jeanetta Hall, is left an annuity of $1,200, to be paid in quarterly installments of $300. If she marries again she is to have one third of the estate.
Dr. Hall is the second colored man to leave a $100,000 estate within the past 14 months, Jas, L. Hichens' who died in July, 1916 leaving that amount.
Strange, Yet True
Strange, Yet True
"The Negro fights well when well officered," has been a familiar assertion, the inference being that white leadership is necessary. There is nothing in the history of black races to warrant the belief that the American Negro must be "well officered", meaning led by offiders of another race, before he can be depended upon as a soldier.
Negro generals in Latin—American countries are numerous and many of them have been not only brave but also distinguished. General Maceo in the Cuban revolution, was a recent example. Hamilcar, Hasdrubal, Hannibal and other famous North Africans were all of the race represented in America represented by descendants of Africans. This is true of Cetawayo in South Africa. The Zulus, the Swazi and other Kaffir tribes, distinguished in modern African w rfare are more akin to the natives of the Atlas region and the Barbara coast than to the progenitors of the American Negro but the Sudanese are Negroes of the equatorial region of Africa. History contains an example record of their military ability. The names of Sir Samuel Baker, Gen Gordon, Col Hicks, Kitchener and others who fought in the Sudan, were made famous in military enterprises which tried the mettle of the best European soldiers, with superior arms, acting a gainst disarmed but fearless and exceptionally ferocious natives. Omduman and Khartom are names familiar the world over as scenes of hard fighting. The Negro soldiers of the Mahri and the Kalifa, in Gordon's day lacked nothing in courage.

St. Louis Riot Investigated--Opens Eyes of the World
New York, Nov. 7.—Early returns today indicate that Negroes have been elected to the New York state assembly and the New York city board of aldermen for the first time in the city's history.
The Congressional Investigating Committee that has been in session during the past week at East St. Louis, making inquiry into the race riot which took place in that city May 28th and July 2nd seems to be headed in the right direction. That their work will be thorough and far-reaching in its effects, is at present no room for doubt.
Edward A. Johnson appears to have been named as state assembliyman from the Nineteenth district, and James C. Thomas Jr. as alderman from the Twenty sixth district. Both are from Harlem, which has a large Negro population.
This is the first time in the history of the country that the Congress of the United States has been prevailed upon to shoulder such a responsibility. The creating of such a committee is out of the ordinary, which, of course, is proper under the circumstsnces. The cause for the investigation is un paralleled in the history of any civilized world, and while the local and state autorities are at work on the cases, and are prosecuting without fear or favor, those who fall into their hands, it is also evident that their arms are short. There is a deal that they seem to have overlooked which is being most interestingly brought out by the congressional committee.
New York--There is considerable agitation going on among the white people in Harlem over the two Negro candidates designated at the recent Republican Primaries for the Assembly and Board of Aldermen, Edward A. Johnson and James C. Thom as, Jr., respectfully.
We do not know that they shall have power to indict or to prefer charges against those who have escaped the eyes of the state officials; but we know they can report conditions were "rotten" in the ill-fated city.
Strange as it may appear, evidence thus far given at this inquiry, shows very plainly that the Negroes were not guilty of the many crimes that have been repeatedly preferred against them. It shows further that the charge of importing Negroes from the South as strike breakers is false, and was circulated by our enemies, especially the labor prions, in or der to stir up race feeling against the Negroes as set at naught the statement that has been prevalent that the Negroes precipitated the riots by firing on and killing a sergeant of the detective force. These and many other startling facts will be taken to Washsngton by this committee.
It is the first time in the history of the City that two members of the Negro race have succeeded at the Primaries and M. Royall, a well known real estate deal of Harlem's Negro colony, is largely responsible for the election at the Primary, says that the two men will be elected at the polls in November if the colored voters do not betray them through the activities of the reactionary leaders.
However, one thing seems certain, that in order to prevent future outbreaks of the kind which happened in East St Louis, the strong hand of the United States government must be made to reach such cases.
The two candidates have the backing of the United Civic League, a colored or organization which has a five story club house at 184 West 135th Street. Mr. Royall, who is a power among the Negroes in Harlem is the President and founder of the League, which came into existence in 1913 as a result of the old fight between the Progressives and the Republicans. The League has 2,200 members in good standing, and its aim is to look after the human rights, political justice and industrial freedom of the Negroes in New York There are five officers and a Board of Governors consisting of fifteen members. No question is permitted to come before the League without first being considered by these two bodies.
It is our hope that the committee will pry deeply into the matter; it is our hope that they will keep their eyes open while investigating, and on their return to Washington will have such a clear vision of the situation, congress will feel constrained to do something tangible, which will prevent the recurrence of the East St. Louis National disgrace.—St. Lou is Argus.
In the war now in progress the American Negro will make his first appearance as a commissioned officer in the United States arms. Successful candidates at the Negro Officers' Training Camp in Iowa have received their commissions. They will be assigned to Negro units in the regular army, the National Guard or the National Army as occasion demands. The mobilization of the Negro troops will begin in a short time under the plans now perfected
Mr Royal who is the most active member and who has done a lot for his race, in speaking of the political situation among the Negroes in Harlem says "If these two members of my race are elected the white people in their districts will have no occasion to feel that the candidates will think only of the Negroes in putting forth their efforts They will work for the wel fare of their constituents irrespective of race or creed We have over 100,000 souls in the Negro colony.

NEGRO SEGREGATION LAW
RULED INVALID
Washington. -The Supreme court today declared unconstitutional the Louisville Ky., ordinance which sought to segregate whites and Negroes into different districts Similar ordinances in Baltimore, St. Louis, Richmond, Va and other cities are affected. The Kentucky state courts were reversed. The court held that the ordinance was invalid because it was a straight-out arbitrary violation of the rights of a certain class of citizens. "There exists a serious situation which, however, the law is powerless to remedy, said the court
Most of the armies of Europe and those of the United States today are marching in shoes or boots made by machines designed and patented by John Ernst Matzeliger, a Negro born in 1852 in Dutch Guiana. Almost every man woman and child in the United States and everywhere else that shoes are worn, pay tribute to the intellect of a man of color who, after years of failure, finally gave to the world the mechanical shoema ker. Matzeliger died in 1869 in Lynn, Mass. aftet unavailing efforts to organize a stock company to manufacture his machine. Records of the United States patent office show that more than 800 patents have been granted to Negroes
Louisville, Ky, Organization of a battalion of Negroes which will leave for France within a month was begun today at Camp Zachary Taylor when officers visited the various regiments calling for volunteers from the drafted ranks to serve as non-commissioned officers in the battalion
Tacoma,Wash., Rejections for physical reasons of colored dratteo men at the Camp Lewis cantonment here is far less than for white men. The percentage of colored rejections is running between 3 and 4 per cent, it was said by the military authorities today, white rejections for white men average between 10 and 11 per cent.
here, and we feel we are not asking too much at the hands of the voters in the respective districts of the two candidates "We have many economic problems to solve among the Negroes in this City, and we believe that resentment at Albany and in the Board of Alderman will prove beneficial. All we ask is a fair chance, and we will do our share in municipal affairs.

CHURCH NOTES.
A splendid congregation was present to receive the pastor's message last Sunday morning. The subject discussed was "The Guest Chamber." That it was enjoyed was evident from the manifest interest. In the evening the monthly communion was administered to a large membership. During the day six persons were accepted to the membership and at the close of the evening service thirteen received the Hand of Fellowship.
The pastor is calling special attention to a series of prayer meeting studies, begun Wednesday night last upon the general subject, "The Return of Our Lord." In these studies his purpose is to gather the teaching of Scripture and focus them upon vital doctrine. Surely in this day of alarming events the church should be awake, lest He "come at such a time as ye think not." Come with your Bible and take notes.
The Woman's Bible Class is also beginning a series of lessons on "Union with Christ." The first was given last week to an interested group of women who propose to search this doctrine to the depths. The pastor urges that promptness in attendance is desired, as it is needful to give a full hour to the study. The hour is Thursday afternoon at 2:30. Every woman is welcome. The Laymen's League is having great meetings, to which it invites every man in the church and community. The motto is, Brotherhood, Fellowship, Christian Work. Such a trinity should be inspiring to every Christian man. The hour is Tuesday at 8 p. m. These meetings close promptly at 9:15. Brothers, come!

The Mrs. Daisy McLain Bulkley, who is visiting the churches of the Lincoln conference in the interest of the Woman's Home Missionary society, will be with us during all the services Sunday. She is also interested in the work of the Sunday School and Epworth League as well. So it is hoped that all the ladies of the church will make it a special appointment to be on time Sunday. The Sunday School plans to give a very excellent program on Thanksgiving eve. It will perhaps be the most interesting program given at Scott's in a long time. The title is "Old Folks' Jubilee." The admission will be 10c. They are giving this to raise money for the purpose of having a grand Xmas tree at Xmas time.
The pastor is beginning to get anxious about the benevolences. We will be glad to receive assessments from any of the members at their earliest convenience. Remember our church has to keep up twenty-one universities and colleges, aside from the many high schools for our people. Don't let the Freedman's Aid cause wane in the least.
Prof. Longare of the Iliff School of Theology will repeat the lecture on "Martin Luther," which he delivered at the Y. M. C. A. a few Sundays ago, heard him at the "Y" are anxious to hear him again.

Let me do my work each day, and if the darkest hours of dispair overcome me, may I not forget the strength that comforted me in the desolation of other times. May I still remember the bright hours that found me walking over the silent hills of my childhood or dreaming on the margin of the quiet river; when a light glowed within me and I promised my early God to have courage amid the tempests of the changing years. Spare me from bitterness and from the sharp passions of unguarded moments. May I not forget that poverty and riches are of the spirit. Though the world know not, may my thoughts and actions be such as to keep me friendly with myself. Lift my eyes from the earth and let me not forget the uses of the stars. Forbid that I should judge others, lest I condemn myself. Let me not follow the clamour of the world, but walk calmly in my path. Give me a few friends that will love me for what I am; and keep ever burning before my vagrant steps the kindly light of hope. And though age and infirmity overtake me, and I come not within the castle of my dreams, teach me still to be thankful for life, and for time's olden memories that are good and sweet; and may the evening's twilight find me gentle still.—Max Ehrmann.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
"Justification By Faith—the Great Sligan by Martin Luther," was the theme of an address delivered last Sunday afternoon by the Rev. W. E. Mason, pastor of the City Park Baptist church at the men's meeting. It was an address which not only held the men spellbound, but thrilled their hearts with joy. The boys are training earnestly every day in preparation for the football games that are planned for Thanksgiving. Twenty-nine strong, husky young fellows belong to the squad, and Captain Wright feels that his boys are bound to win. Harry Barnett, the splendid coach, is busy with new signals, which, de declares, are bound to help the boys to "put the thing over." Mr. L. H. Lightner of the American Woodmen and former recording secretary of the Committee of Management, has been appointed Chairman of the branch, to succeed the late Dr. DeFrantz.
It has been found necessary to postpone the opening of the financial and membership campaign until Monday, Nov. 19th. The captains have now filled out their teams, and many of the men have already begun a "hunt" for men. The force will be made up of ten teams of men and two of boys. The aim is to bring in 200 men and 50 boys by the close of the campaign.
Next Sunday afternoon, the 18th, Secretary Thomas J. Bell will speak at a public meeting to be held at the Zion Baptist church on "My Trip to Camp Funston with the Colored Soldiers of Colorado." The meeting will begin at 3:30 o'clock, and everybody is requested to be present. Music by the Y. M. C. A. band.

look for examples of capable Negro officers. There will be no dondt about the capacity of the Negro candidates who have won commissions in the Officers' reserve Camp at Des Moines. Officered by men of their own race the Negroes will experience an in crase of pride. They will exhibit a spirit of rivalry and an increased ambition to make a creditable showing in battle. That thay, men and officers wil be heard from when they get to the trenches in Europe may be safely assumed.

“PRAYER ALONG BATTLE LINE
Practice Among Soldiers Sald to Be
General, and Much Good le
the Result.
British church authorities find time
to discuss some of the pssehle phe-
Romena of battle, and just now are
consfering wiat they admit is one of
‘the most marked, that of the gen-
eral practice of prayer among the
Boldters. This {8 not taken to indi-
ate a sudden spread of religion
‘mong the men, but rather as a re-
crudence of the primitive impulse
to appeal to the supernatural for ald.
In commenting on this point during
the first year of the war, The Bee
called attention to the fact that men
(nm the presence of death are more
Ukely to feel thelr dependence on God
and to have recourse to him for
needed help. Dally contact with dan-
gers of warfare sobers the judgment
and inclines the thought to things
ordinarily neglected in time of se
) curity.
Expertence hus developed that
prayer in the presence of {mminent
danger does have a most remarkable
Psychological effect. Men in com:
plete funk pray after their own fash-
ion, and immediately seem to gain sus:
tenance, their minds becoming clear,
their actions rational and their fright
disappearing entirely. Reasons for
this are apparent, but are likely to be
variously construed. The fact is note
worthy as characteristic of the work-
ings of the human mind, rather than
significant of deeper devoutedness.—

Brushes Play Important Role.
Brushes, large and small, play an
important role in the management of
a home, To many, a brush simply
means a dust-brush or a scrubbing
brush, but to the woman who has re-
duced the business of housekeeping
to a science, brushes include a broad
long-handled one for cleaning glass-
ware, especially cut-glass, around the
handles of cups, and any other inac-
cessible place where the dishcloth can-
not reach. A wire brush also occupies
@ prominent place and ts used for
cleaning pots and pans. How many
women think of using a brush to scrub
vegetables or to clean celery? Very
few, and yet it is the only satisfactory
method of thoroughly cleaning vege-
tables.
To Curl Celery.
Cat celery into one and éne-half or
two-nch pleces. Slash both ends to a
distance of one-half to three-quarters
Inch so tt looks fringed. Put these
re ‘once into ice water containing a
‘Ulttle lemon juice. In about one-half
| hour these will be nicely curled.
Broom Economy.
Dip your brooms in bolling soap-
suds every week or so. They get rath-
er tough—not too much so—just
enough to last longer than the un-
dipped broom and to get every bit of
dust out of a stiff carpet.

The above shows the dump of ores and value of years of accumulation
of low grade values. It is aiready mined and on top of the ground. Look,
see and think. The man who looks deepest, thinks fastest, goes the farth-
est. A lost hour is a lost chance. Getting started is the first essential of
getting anywhere. This dump having assay tests made on all sides gives
a flattering future.
Assays from this old dump have varied from 20 to 173% ounces of silver per ton with sufficient lead to pay the
cost of traasportation and smelting; and this {s not surprising, as the cost of smelting and shipping ore in the
early days of The Snowdrift Mining Co. operations cost $90.00 per ton, making ore worth less than $100 per ton
valueless, while this same ore can now be loaded, shipped to Deaver and smelted for less than $6.00 per ton.
While this condition was unfortunate for the early operators, the rich ore dumps left by reason of the crude
methods employed by the pioneer miners, means sure profit without risk for the investors and mining operators of
today.
Statement of Daniel Peters, superintendent of Snowdritt mine, March 15th, 1880, to Gen. E. M. McCook of
New York:
“At the time | worked the mine, I never saved ore that paid anything less than $100.00 per ton, my orders
being to throw anything on the dump pile which ran under that amount. ‘ have been in Colorado ten years and
consider this one of the best in the state. The title of this mine is the oldest in the district.”
General McCook was Presideat of Snowdrift Company and ex-Governor of Colorado.

THE SNOWDRIFT DUMP.
This dump, now owned by your
company, is an occumulation of ore
discarded from the picking tables of
the Snowdrift mine at the time When
ore of less value than $i) per ton
could aot profitably be shipped for
treatment.
‘The assays of many samples from-
this dump run from 20 ounces to 170
ounces silver per ton, with ufficient
values in lead and gold to pay treat-
ment charges. Carload lots, shipped
to the smelter to sample the dump in
bulk, show over 22 ounces silver per
toa.
During the numerous tests | have
made to determine the most economi-
cal process for recovering the values
in your ore, I Bad taken from this
dump various bulk samples, averag-
ing 300 pounds each, for exyesimental
purposes. The lowes: valuc I ob-
tained from these samples was $35
per ton, the highest, $111 per toa, in
silver, lead and gold. Ihave no doubt
that higher average values than those
so far obtained will be secured when
the interior of this dump is treated.
I estimate the tonnage in this
dump to be approximately 150,000
tons of ore, and if treated by ‘he pro-
cess recommended in my report on
the milling and treatment of ‘itis are,
already handed to you, I estimate that
the net profit from this dump alone,
at the present price of silver, will be
approximately $4,500,000, or 50 per
cent more than your total capital at
par.
While you have an enormous re-
serve of ore, already mined, in the
Snowdrift dump, you have also a
large quantity of high grade milling
We believe this because we are in possession of all the facts in the
case—we know the great value of our holdings—we know it because we
have with us as Stockholders, many men who are highly connected in
large business enterprises—successful men who have acquired fortunes
by safe and shrewd investments—we know It because we have confidence
in our Field men and Experts—Men that we depend on—Men experi-

ore still unbroken in the Lone Wolf
stopes.
Two excellent mill sites have been
secured, one contiguous to each prop-
erty.
The Snowdrift dump and the Lone
Wolf ore can be economically handled
by a gravity tram from mine to mill.
The erection of this tram presents no
engineering difficulties whatever.
Your properties are well situated re-
garding the obtaining of supplies.
Mine timber can be obtained locally
at a reasonable price.
‘The district is connected with the
city of Denver 52 miles away by rail-
road, ore, concentrates and bullion
from the mines and mills ccan be
shipped without difficulty.
In conclusion, I can say you have
an exceptionally fine mining proposi-
tion. In my opinion, the undoubted
values contained in the Snowdrift
dump, and easily recovered, reduces
the speculative element to almost
zero.
I have very little doubt that the
Lone Wolf mine will be a large pro-
ducer of high-grade ores.
Your Buxton property, I believe,
will with economical and efficient
management, develop into one of the
largest producers in the famous Silver
Plume district.

(Bxcerpt from the Mining Engi-
neer's report of the Silver Plume
property.
To Whom It May Concern:
Some few days ago I chanced to
meet Mr, T. S. Shuttleworth, who pre-
sented to me one of the greatest op-
portunities of my life. Little did I
think so until I investigated person-
ally. I found that not a word of his
statement was not true. He had not
overestimated it in the least. These
people have the ORE, thousands of
tons of it, ready to be milled. I per-
sonally was on this enormous dump
from one end to the other and from
top to bottom looking for country
rock, of which I found to be a very
scarce article. I gathered about a 50-
pound sample taken from all parts of
this Snowdrift dump. The sample,
which I personally tested, ran as fol-
lows:
Silver, $31.00; 1% lead; .02 gold.
You may ask why these people want
to sell stock? This question is easily
anwered. Merely becaue they have
spent thousands of dollars in securing
this enormous project. I do not know
whether I can express it in any other
way than merely to loan them enough
money to build the mill and install
the tram. When the mill is once in
operation, I feel safe { nsaying good
night, for there will be no more stock
for sale. Now is your opportunity.
Get busy for your best chance will not
last long. There is absolutely no
chance to be taken. It will be your
mistake, not theirs.
I also visited the Buxton group of
claims. The tunnel which will pene-
trate all these veias is being hard
pushed every day. I cannot speak too
highly of this. T am merely a stock-
holder and I expect big returns from
the Buxton group as well as the Snow-
drift dump and the Lone Wolf mine.
Respectfully,

SLOGAN—"STOP LYNCHING AND MOB VIOLENCE BY LAW."
Nov. 6th, 1917.
W. E. B. DuBois, 70 Fifth Ave., New
York City, N. Y.
The Colored citizens of Denver and
Colorado desire that thru Denver
Branch to convey to you and to Hon.
Morefield Story and associates, their
heartfelt gratitude and sincere appreciation of the noble work and splendid victory won before the U. S. Supreme Court in the segregation cases.
It is the most important bit of news
heralded over the country and the
highest standard for world democracy
since the passage of the Civil Rights
Bill.
MILLDRED ABERNATHY,
By a most sweeping decision, unanimous in fact, the U. S. Supreme Court on Monday of this week declared the Louisville segregation ordinance to be unconstitutional and thus by one master stroke, banishes the grim specter of residential segregation that at one time threatened Baltimore, St. Louis, Richmond, and even Denver. This decision marks a new and glorious era for the Negro and is a worthy tribute to National Association for the Advancement of Colored People which has persistently fought the case through all the courts. And our own Denver Branch of the Association came in as a strong factor toward this ultimate victory by sending in the largest contribution of money of any of the Branches in proportion to the Negro population when the Louisville case was carried to the Supreme Court. Again last May, when Hon. Morefield Story and his able assistants argued the case before the court, Denver responded with its share of the expense. Hardly a year has passed since our own city was thrown in an uproar by an effort to get before the City Council a most rabid and disgraceful segregation ordinance. Let it be remembered that the Negroes, ever alert, met their pressors on every turn. To their lasting honor, it must be said, not a coward, not a laggard was found among them. The scare-head meeting for "White People Only." in the Council Chambers, was almost turned into a meeting for Negroes only. A better fight was never put up by any people, nor for any cause. Denver then has every right to join in the great victory of last Monday when the highest court of the land served notice on all such as Norman and Rubidge that their ill-bred propaganda has no place in American cities. We can afford to look to the future with a hope and gladness. Yet, let us not wholly overlook the past, for we must ever remember the lamented Townsend, Revs. Over and Pope, Lawyer Ross, Bufard, Lightner and Hill; also Misdames, Cooper, Abernathy, Buford, Contee, White, Webb and Froman, and the two white men who stood as giant bulwarks in our defense, Dr. John Grass and James T. Smith. The National Association stood by us loyally in the fight and when Lawyer Ross sent to them for copies of decisions affecting other cities that had tried to put over their segregation plans, not only did they respond promptly, but they sent back this cheering message, "Make the fight and we will back you to the limit of our ability and resources." We made the fight and are justly proud over the result. The Denver Branch now has a membership of about 100, but the very outcome of this fight for manhood, for justice and self-respect, should impulse five times that number to respond at once and enroll their names as members. It is the most advanced step toward world democracy since the passage of the Civil Rights Bill. From every fireside and altar in Denver, prayers of thanks-giving and praise should go up to Him who has led us into the daylight of a higher, greater and more exalted citizenship.

HOW DEEP IT CUTS!
While the War Department at Washington, so vigorously, and so deaf to the hopes and aspirations, and so unmindful of the service rendered by the race, is pushing the arrangements for segregating Colored soldiers at army cantonments, we hope the epauletted officers in charge of bureaus in the department will hesitate long enough to read Henri Barbusseau's tribute to the black soldiers of Africa now in the trenches over in France.
Barbusse, a Frenchman and literary man, and himself a soldier in the trenches, has written a book, "Le Feu," in which appears the following:
"These Colored troops and the 75 centimeter cannon, are our chief trumps. We look on them with admiration; their laughing faces and heedless courage deepen the sense of fear in us. They imitate the Germans, calling out 'Kamrad, Kam'rad,' and then 'Non, jamais Kam'rad,' and they then lunge forward with bayonet that ends the appeal to brotherhood and mercy! They only live for the word command, 'Forward, Forward.' Those are real soldiers. We are just men, ordinary men."
And perhaps these Colored soldiers whom the War Department, under Secretary Baker's administration, is feverishly laboring to segregate off in some corner of a cantonment—just as they would a contagion afflicted, when they have reached the trenches of Europe will be looked upon "with admiration," and perhaps they will be referred to also as the "real soldiers." Segregation! Segregation! How deep that word cuts into the very soul of the man who is offering his services—his blood—his very precious life to his country!—Cleveland Advocate.
COLORED SOLDIERS
TO CAMP FUNSTON
Inspired by the Colored man's proverbial fondness for fried chicken Eaton people provided a big chicken dinner for the three Negroes who left here Saturday for Camp Funston. The dinner was cooked in real Southern style by Mrs. Fred Jones, who runs a boarding house on the east side and who has a country-wide reputation among the Colored people as a cook. After the dinner was over the three Colored soldiers were taken in automobiles to witness the Eaton-Longmont football game. Then they were taken to the draft board headquarters and later were escorted to the Union Pacific train where they boarded the 5:15 train for Camp Funston.
The three men who compose north Weld's Colored contingent in the first draft army are Samuel Threadgill of Galeton and Alva C. Thomas and Wayne Tichner of Eaton. They expressed keen appreciation for the royal farewell they received at the hands of the people of Eaton.
Camp Funston, Oct. 30.
To the Local Board, Eaton, Colo., Mr. T. C. Phillips, Chairman.
Sirs—We wish to extend to the board our best wishes and regards in appreciation of your kindness and we shall always remember, even when under fire, the exciting game between Eaton and Longmont. We wish to thank also the Red Cross for blankets and socks. We would appreciate a copy of The Eaton Herald occasionally, should it not be too much trouble.

NOTICE
To Our Many Friends and Well-Wishers, Greetings From Camp Funston Kansas:
We take great pleasure in presenting to you that great city of wood which has sprung as if some magical phenomena in such a very short space called Camp Funston. From adjacent hills, as far as the eye can see, army barracks can be seen. Thousands of men, khaki-clad, can be seen from daybreak to dusk, drilling and exercising. In the southeastern part of this camp is the place where the Colored Selected men are stationed, 2,600 strong now, and 10,000 expected soon.
The amusement and religious side of the soldier life centers around the Y. M. C. A., No. 11, where Father Van Loo is building secretary, A. W. Hardy, physical director of national reputation, recently from Camp Des Moines; physical secretary and Ogleslie Lawson, educational secretary. Twelve or more secretaries are daily expected.
Company K has been named the Colorado company. The selected men from the Columbine state are establishing a record and are being recognized by receiving appointments. No more do you hear the words, Theodore, Cinder, Vernon or Ben, but we do hear of Acting Supply Sergeant Von Dickerson, Acting First Sergeant Delano, Acting Sergeant (Winters) Simpson, Acting Sergeant Reynolds, Acting Corporals Baxter, Hooper, Rutherford, Harris and Massey; Private Evans of Boulder, Private Morgan, Colorado leads!
Mr. Henderson J. Irving, familiarly known as "Son," is another native son. His matchless skill in the culinary art has been acknowledged by the United States Government officials and he is instructing the chefs of the many companies—white and Colored—in the science of cookery. Having just finished a meal prepared by Chef Irving, the Y. M. C. A. men are unanimous their praises of Chef Irving. The chef came from Chicago to this camp and is now with Company K. He sends his best regards to Denver, as do all the other Denver men. Please remember, we miss those cakes and pies and other goodies, girls. Your gifts are always welcome. Mark them as follows:
To
Company B, Colored Regiment.
Camp Funston, Kahns.
Ray Crumpler and he, too
is making a great record.
Oglesvie Lawson wishes to publicly thank those who without his knowledge were so kind as to recommend his appointment as educational secretary. Many thanks!
(Special to The Denver Star.)
On board the drafted men special of Colorado, bound for Camp Funston. Long as for freedom's cause the wise contend;
Dear to your country shall your fame extend.
While to the world the lettered stones shall tell.
Where the brave American Negroes Fell.
The boys are all cheerful and happy in spite of the many loved ones that were left behind. They are being cheered all along the route by patriotic Americans, who wish them all Godspeed. It is an enjoyable trip, indeed. There is not a sad face in the crowd, and from all outward appearances they are as happy as if they were on a pleasure trip. They say, tell the loved ones and friends not to worry, for all sickness isn't death, and they will see them again before they go to the front. So cheer up, mothers, fathers, sweethearts and friends, the boys will be home again.
A. Harris, S. Simpson and V. Reynolds, who are occupying the drawing room, are entertaining some comrades from Boulder. Some are singing and others are telling tales. The writer has been with many soldiers and drafted men, but this is the classiest set I have come in contact with—no bullies. No profanity—and they are as tidy and keep the car as clean as they do their own homes, and you know it must be clean.
Mr. Bell of the Y. M. C. A. is with us. All is quiet, for he has just passed some Testaments around and the boys are now busy reading them. They are beginning to yawn. George Rutherford and Ben Hooper calls for the porter to make down; it is quiet again, for they are sleeping peacefully, mothers and fathers, and are dreaming of you. It is now Sunday morning; the boys are all up and as cheerful as ever after a good night's rest. It became chilly in the morning and A. Harris, who occupies a berth with S. Simson, asked Sam to let him have some more cover. Mr. Simpson, who never did wake up, told Harris that if he did not leave him alone he would knock him in the head with a brick. Harris, who never got the cover he asked for, said he was afraid to bother him any more for fear he might have a brick in the bed. The boys are very proud of the send-off the people of Denver gave them. They beg to thank each and every one, the Red Cross, the different ladies' organizations, pastors, Spanish war veterans and the Colorado Colored battalion that escorted them to the stationed and entertained them so royally. We have now arrived at the camp. All are well and happy. They are greeted with a smile from the white boys. It is very cold. They say, tell everyone that they arrived safe and sound.
They are lined up by twos; the white officers give the orders to march. There goes the black phlanx of Colorado, sons of the best Colored families the state affords. Good luck, boys; here's hoping all of you will return safely home.
THE McENERY CLOTHING STORE.
The Star is glad to announce to its many friends that the McEnery Clothing Stores, corner 23rd and Larimer streets, carry a full line of men and boys' clothing, shoes and the most courteous treatment can be had there.
Patronize those who advertise with us and you will get bargains.

Rev. Duncan was at his best Sunday and preached an excellent sermon. L. Vinegar departed this week for Oakland, Cal. Freddie Williams, son of H. Williams, was arrested this week on the charge of theft and upon recovery of the stolen articles was given a floater out of town. Men, do you love your country? Two jobs which you might know of—Fight or Farm. Neither of these two are no less vital nor glorious in the use of Uncle Sam. U. S. has big job on hand and we must help her accomplish it. The war's necessities are fighting and farming. Your country expects every eligible person to do one or the other and if you, while doing your duty in either, happen to fall, you are then a full-fledged citizen. Men, don't shirk. The Government needs you, and your aid.

HELPFUL AND ECONOMICAL HINTS.
When clothing becomes shiny rub well with a piece of emery paper. Spots on suede shoes may be removed with emery paper. When machine needles become dull, sharpen them by stitching once or twice through a piece of sand-paper or coarse emery paper. A hook and eye
on suede shoes may be removed with emery paper. When machine needles become dull, sharpen them by stitching once or twice through a piece of sand-paper or coarse emery paper. A hook and eye sewed at the bottom of a placket, then clamped with a tackhammer will not come unhooked and will bear the strain without tearing the placket. A piece of gum camphor put away with the silver will keep it from tarnishing. An electric fan placed in front of a radiator will by its motion set the air circulating through the coils very quickly.
The lower cellar stair as well as the attic stair may be made with a hinge and will make a fine receptacle for various necessary things. Do not put oll mops or polishing rags in such a tight place, as spontaneous combustion may cause a serious fire.
A clothespin is a handy thing to hold a hot dish while stirring on the stove.
A clothespin bag with a clothes hanger for a top may be pushed along on the line and is always ready to use.
A nutcracker may be used as a wrench on small cans and bottles as well as the nuts on sewing machines and wringers.
When using a patch on wall paper tear the patch instead of cutting it; it will be less noticeable.
An eggshell with a pricked hole in it makes a very good funnel in an emergency. A piece of letter paper rolled in the shape of a funnel will also serve nicely. Heavy wallpaper of a light color may be covered with calsomine of any special tint at very little expense.
A paper or wooden tub or bowl is best to use for washing dishes, as they are less apt to be nicked by striking the sides.
A coat of white paint on the outside of a screen door will keep those on the outside from looking in..

COUGAR PRINCE OF SNEAKS
Mountain Lion Will Never Attack Except Under Extreme Stress of Hunger, Says Authority.
State Biologist Finley of Oregon, who knows more about wild animals and strange birds than any other man in Oregon, makes the observation that cougars have rarely been known to attack a man, says the Portland Oregonian.
A few years ago Theodore Roosevelt, in camp, made the sweeping statement that the cougar, or mountain lion, is the most cowardly of all beasts and that it had never been known to attack man, woman or child, so far as he could learn by special examination of many stories of such encounters. The assertion of Mr. Roosevelt was disputed, and many instances were cited, some of them perhaps authentic. But undoubtedly his general characterization of the sneaking qualities of the cougar is entirely justified. A yelping dog will put any cougar to rout, and he will follow under cover a man for miles without making his presence known. Under extreme stress of hunger the cougar will sometimes take a chance of a fight with a man, but not otherwise.
The lion may be the king of beasts, but the cougar is the prince of sneaks and cowards.
KILKENNY CAT STORY.
Apropos of the Kilkenny election, how many people know the real story of the Kilkenny cats? It happened that the British government employed Hessian regiments in Ireland for the purpose of putting down the rebellion of 1798. Some of these Germans located in Kilkenny conceived the notion of hanging two cats over a rope with their tails tied together so that they might fight while so suspended. One day they were surprised at the precious "amusement" by an officer, and a trooper drew his sword and cut down the cats, leaving their tails behind. The cats, quite alive, ran through an open window. When the officer entered he asked what had become of the cats, and the reply was that they had devoured each other. Hence the tale.
HIS LESSON.
Father—What did you learn at school today?
Son (with black eye)—That little fellers are the best fighters.
"I see quite a military procession in my mind's eye." "Then I suppose it is headed by your ear drums."
Miriam brought the thing over on my birthday. "It may seem queer as a gift, Nell," she remarked, "but the girls are all raving over these old images, and the china is as rare as it is quaint."
I am afraid my thanks lacked enthusiasm, as I took the feering Hindu god into my hands, for she added coldly, "It is also supposed to bring true love," and Miriam smiled enigmatically, "the image can never be parted from its owner."
It did not seem to me, as I looked into the squinting features, that this was a thing much to be desired, but it was gratifying to possess such a priceless bit of china, its stamp was undoubtedly genuine. From my dressing table each morning the image leered an awakening greeting, and at night when the last light had been extinguished, the whiteness of the squaty figure shone out in the darkness, and I was uncomfortably aware of that diabolical smile as I passed into a troubled dream. The thing was actually getting on my nerves, its presence seemed so all-pervading. With contempt for my own weakness, I locked it in an unused cabinet, from which it was later drawn forth by my mother.
"Why, Nell," she reproved, "you are hiding away a valuable piece of bric-a-brac; if you do not care for it in your room, I will place it upon the piano."
How many beautiful symphonies that wretched thing interrupted, to my embarrassment, no one may know, but happily, for a time at least, I became so busy that the provoking image lost its power to annoy. Our sorority girls had formed a habit of meeting each month, to brush up their knowledge upon forgotten college subjects. It was interesting, for the boys were asked in to be judges at the "contests" as we called them, and prizes were given the successful. These prizes were donated by the girls in alphabetical order, and we tried to make them as unique as we could. I was studying up to beat Miriam Smith at the latest contest, and—I did it.
The rooms with their chattering occupants swam dizzily before my eyes when Billy Bronson gave out the judges' decision.
"Creditably won," he shouted, "by Miss Nell Wentworth."
Then all at once it came upon me, why, in my excitement had I overlooked this public moment. It had been my turn to donate the prize, and in stress of constant study the purchase had been forgotten. It was only when slipping into my coat to leave for the contest that I remembered. Then, like a flash of inspiration, caged the thoughts of the Hindu god. Quantity and costly, the appropriate thing.
There was satisfaction in the thought, as I tied my card about the thing's neck, that I should never more be troubled by that grinning face. And here, now, in presence of Mirlam whose gift it had been, Billy Bronson was holding out to me that flendish, invincible face.
Mirlam looked, then laughed. "Congratulations," she remarked, "the cat came back."
I left the sorority crowd at the great gateway, ostensibly to board a car at the corner, but my purpose was different. Safety away upon the stone walk, I intended to let that detestable image slip carelessly to its fate. China will break, no matter how ancient, and the time of the Hindu god had come. The street lamps were lighted when I looked aboutfurtively, and—let go. There was an encouraging crash as I hurried on.
"Madame," cried a deep voice, "allow me." A young man was bending over the pavement, and as I hesitated, he raised a handsome, regretful face "I am sorry," he said, "the statue seems to be broken in two, still it might be mended."
"Oh! no," I gasped, then the humor of it all came over me, and I buried my face in my muff, in silent laugh-

ter. "It doesn't matter," I added, blinking at him.
He was evidently mistaking the laughter tears in my eyes, his own were so sympathetic. "I am very sorry," he repeated, and stood staring after me as I turned the corner. I was so glad to be rid of the thing that I went about singing and I couldn't forget the nice young man's kind eyes. And the very next night when I was singing a love song, he came to our front door. The young man's name was John Curtis, son of John Curtis, proprietor of the curio store, and young John had taken that smashed image of mine to his father's store, and had it all nicely mended. Then he brought it to my address, which he found upon the card tied about the heathen god's neck. And I was so cold

in my appreciation, that I had to wake up for it by inviting him in, and being entertaining.
You will remember that the image was supposed to bring true love to its owner. Well, if the love of John Curtis for me is not true, then never was true love in the world. As he says:
"Surely it was the little old chap who brought us together," and for that reason he is determined never to part from the Hindu god. But in John's home and mine, the smile of the image above our hearth fire will beam with the light of our reflected happiness.

The site for our first well in Weld County is selected. This site has a regular anticline structure similar to the Wyoming fields, according to an eminent geologist. The derrick will be going up inside of ten days.
Our leases in Northeastern Colorado cover 15,000 acres in Weld County, and 2,000 acres in Logan County near the Sterling well. This well is 1,800 feet deep in shale saturated with oil, and a commercial oil well may be brought in at any time. About 7,500 acres of our leases surround the place where we will drill our first well.
We also have a very valuable 320 acres in Wyoming near the Big Muddy and are closing for some inside Oklahoma land.
Call in and find out who the men are back of this Company, and get all information, and you will buy.

My dear Co-Worker:
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN
I have good news for you. God is answering our prayers. I appeared before the Rules Committee of the House of Representatives, Friday, August 3rd, and that night Congressman Dyer phoned me that the Committee was wonderfully impressed and had decided to recommend that the Resolution, begging Federal Investigation be taken up by Congress. Now, we must win. God will help us if we help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK!
PETITIONS! PETITIONS! PETITIONS are the things that will prove that there is countrywide sentiment and determination back of this demanding that an end be put to mob violence. Now, I will not rest until every Congressman is appealed to to take a stand for justice and protection. Will you get men to sign these Petititions in ink, and you divide the number and send them directly to the members of Congress from your State? Send them to men in the House and in the Senate. See that the work is neatly done so as to reflect the intelligence that there is back of this movement. Tell our people to take pride and pleasure in this. Get influential white friends to sign some of them. Give them the literature and urge them to see their patriotic duty in saving America from mob violence. Get signatures. Every Petition counts.
Fill out the inclosed memorandum and send it at once, to me. This memorandum goes to Congressman Dyer. He wants to keep close tab on what is being done by the Colored people themselves.
Send each Congressman one of the inclosed tags. Write a very short letter, telling him you know he is going to hear the voice of his fellow countryman, pleading for justice and protection. Make it bristle with patriotism, but make him feel that this country is facing a problem at home that is no less serious than the problem abroad.
Work with us in this. Pray with us and we will win.
Yours for a True Democracy,

WAR MAKES HIS FARM PAY
Russian's Ten-Acre Tract on Long Island Now Bringing $200,000 Yearly Rental.
When Meyer I. Shapiro, a hay and feed dealer of Woodhaven exchanged three two-family houses in Woodhaven for a ten-acre farm near Yaphank, L. I., about four years ago, his friends looked upon the transaction as anything but a wise one. The Woodhaven property represented a value of about $12,500, and Shapiro's friends told him they doubted if the farm he took in exchange would be a paying investment for 100 years to come. But Shapiro told everybody that he had always wanted to acquire a farm on Long Island, and that he didn't care if it never did turn out a paying investment. Secretly, however, he had some misgivings, and less than a year ago, he admits, he would have been glad to sell his ten acres with the comfortable 15-room house thereon for a mere song. Then, along came the war and the selection by the government officials of the Yaphank site for a cantonment where the drafted men could be trained. Shapiro's property happened to be opposite the Camp Upton railroad station and the main entrance to the camp. Immediately there was a demand for Shapiro's land on the part of big and small business interests which saw the commercial possibilities and expressed an eagerness to lease parcels for fabulous sums. Now Shapiro expects to collect $200,000 yearly in rentals. When the government first decided on the camp site several months ago Shapiro turned down a $100,000 cash offer for his property.
Shapiro is forty-two years old. He was born in Kovno, Russia, and has been somewhat of a globe trotter. He emigrated from Russia to Johannesburg, South Africa, in his twenties. After the Boer war Shapiro traveled extensively. He came to this country about 12 years ago and settled in Brooklyn, where he engaged in the feed business. Five years ago he moved to Woodhaven. — Brooklyn Eagle.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS
A bag of salt standing where fish is being cooked will absorb the odor. When making bread always warm the basin and flour. The bread will be much lighter. To keep tins from rusting, place them near the fire after they have been washed and dried. Ginger poultices are as efficacious as mustard, and will not blister. They are made in the same way as mustard poultices. For removing marks from light-colored cloth, use a piece of india rubber pencil eraser. Paint is greatly improved if cleaned with a soft cloth and paraffin.
THAT'S THE IDEA
A man in a top hat and pipe looks at a ship in the background.
Wifey (at football game)—How energetically they play!
Hubby—Yes; they kick while the gridiron is hot.
A Substitute.
Add a sliced banana to the white of one egg and beat until stiff. The banana will entirely dissolve, and yum will have a delicious substitute for whipped cream.

PETITION TO THE President and Congress FOR THE Independence of Ireland
We, as American citizens, respectfully state to the Government of the United States that Ireland is a distinct nation, deprived of her liberty by force and held in subjection by England by military power alone. As America has entered the war for the preservation of democracy and the freedom of small nationalities, this Government is in honor bound to apply this principle impartially in all cases of war against the United States under the jurisdiction of Germany, like Belgium, or of England, like France, which cannot be a party to any scheme of world-peace which withholds from any nation the God-given right of freedom, the only final settlement must be the complete independence of Ireland.
America has the right, by her entry into the war, to demand N from England, not in the Peace Conference at the close of the war, but now.
We therefore respectfully urge upon the President and the Congress the necessity and good policy of giving a great example to the world by insisting that England shall grant Ireland complete national independence. We earnestly hope that, like Cuba, Ireland will be made free by the action of America.

MISS ETHEL REASE WINS SUIT—MRS. BLANCHE BAKER IS CLOSE SECOND.
Because there might arise some suspicion about the postponement or some misunderstanding about giving the contestants each a square deal, and because further some of the contestants had collected up their books, it was decided by the trustees, after consulting the contestants, to call off the contest immediately, and so on Monday night at the parsonage, the contestants met and turned in their money for the votes sold.
Miss Rease, as representative of Zion and B. Y. P. U., won the suit to be made by our first-class tailor, Alfred V. Gardiner. Mrs. Blanche Baker was second. Miss Rease reported having sold 1,095 votes, while Mrs. Baker reported having sold 476 votes. Each of the contestants desire to thank their many friends for their timely and appreciative support in this contest. Mrs. Blanche Baker wishes especially to thank the Taka Art Club, Shorter church, and other friends who assisted. The trustees were tickled to death at their grand and beneficial showing. Miss Rease is all smiles this week and is receiving congratulations on her success.
IN MEMORIAM.
In loving memory of Chas. Lloyd White, who entered rest eternal, November 5, 1916. Rest in peace. HATTIE WHITE, His Wife.
CONDOLENCE OF BYMPATHY.
Denver, Colo., No. 5, 1917.
Whereas, it has pleased the Almighty God to call from labor to rest our beloved Dr. Pearl Mason; and Whereas, it is our loss, it is Heaven's gain. We, the Dr. of Pride of Denver, 521, extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family and commend you to our Heavenly Father, who does all things well.
Over the river they beckon to me.
Loved ones who crossed to the
other side;
The gleam of their snowy robes I see. But their voices are drowned by the rushing tide:
rushing tide;
There's one with ringlets of Heaven's
crown.
She crossed in the twilight gray and
cold,
And the pale midst hid her from mortal view.
We saw not the angels, that met her there,
The gates of the city we could not see:
My brother stands, waiting to welcome me.
We know she is safe on the farther side.
Where all the ransomed angels be.
We recommend that a copy of these resolutions of condolence be sent to the family, and to be recorded in our record-book, and one to be sent to the press.
Dr. Sarah Threet, H. P.,
Dr. Minnie Whitsell, I. St.
Dr. Cora Robinson, B. V.,
Committee.
Card of Thanks.
Pride of Denver, 521, wishes to thanks Boykins Tabernacle, 464, and Prinies of Peace, 566, St. James Temple, and also the G. H. P. of Colorado Springs, Dr. Wilmina Hall, for they loyalty and faithfully turned out with our to Dr. Pearl Mason's funeral last Sunday afternoon.
I am yours in 322,
