TEXANS MOURN WILLIS' DEMISE 5 PRICE CENTS VOL XI TEXA THE MIRROR By C. F. RICHARDSON TEXAS HONORED WILLES ON TO INDIANAPOLES! ODD FELLOWS' CABINET Accompanied by my spouse and oldest son, C. F. Jr., this columnist left Houston late last Friday night overland for Dallas, where we were present. Saturday morning at the brief and simple funeral service for the late W. S. Willis, held at the Willis residence with Dr. A. S. Jackson, mother New Hope Baptist Church, Dallas, officiating. thousands of both races through the streets, necessitating traffic of all sizes, by this huge crowd before the funeral curtage wended its way overland to the grand chancellor's body lay in state at the home of his mother from Saturday evening afternoon, when the funeral procession was slowly to the New Hope Baptist Church (Waco), where decedent had his membership for about 22 years. The outpouring of friends from all counties of the high state was a concrete pillar this fraternal leader was held by all who knew him; while the floral of the state was beautiful ever witnessed at a funeral in the history of this state. In compliance with a law entered into by the grand chancellor's body was deposited beside that of his father in the cemetery at Monday afternoon. We returned to Dallas, where, upon invocation of Grand Chancellor L. B. Simmons, the official Friary family Tuesday. At the Tuesday meeting in Dallas, also attended by Colonel Roscoe Cooking Simmons, who delivered the enquiry at the funeral of Mr. Willis, the new grand chancellor stated his declaration to understand that the program of punishing the order onward, upward and forward rested upon the shoulders of sympathetic cooperation as he entered upon his new duties; assuring the grand chancellor the magnitude of the task, through divine help and their help he be expected to order would not take backward steps. The question of carrying the special train to the supreme lodge at In-diamonds, Indiana, August 18-24, 1899, was settled by the new grandson of the president, and from St. Louis to going to execute every promise and carry out every plan outlined by his late predecessor; and that the special train would leave Dallas, Saturday, August 17, 12:91 noon, via Missouri-Kansas-Texas ("Katy") Railroad for 50 days, and from St. Louis to In-diamonds via the Pennsylvania Lines; arriving in the Hoosier city Sunday, August 18, 3 p.m. It was the consensus of opinion that Texas Pythians should go to Indianapolis and support some strong man for the supreme chancellorship, and thereby save the order from receivership which now stares it in the country under the present administration. In assurance with resolutions introduced at the recent grand session held at Galveston, the executive board of the Grand United Order of Old Fellows met in the Island City last Saturday, and appointed two able young men to official positions in the order. Judge J. Alston Atkins, for the past few years one of Houston's leading business men, was appointed grand attorney, and will serve as the order's legal counsel and adviser; while Prof. Johns W. Eice, principal-elect Booker T. Washington High School of Dallas, was appointed assistant enrolment secretary, with headquarters in Houston. Both Mr. Rice and Mr. Atkins have decided definitely to accept the proffered positions in the Old Fellows's court lodge, and will enter upon their duties immediately. In adding these two brilliant young men to their official family, the Odd Fellows made a master stroke, and I have not yet found a man who will hardly suffer in comparison with any fraternal order in Texas. Judge Athia is in a native of North City and Tale University Law School For several years he was associated with Tale University Law School in the practice of civil law in the where the firm enjoyed a lucrative Professor Rice is well-known as an educator and editor, having served for several years an editor of the law Dallas Regional Board of Education registrant the Dallas principalship last spring to accept the presidency of by the Dallas Board of Education to succeed Proff.

HOUSTON YOUTH WINS HONORS AS STUDIO SINGER Los Angeles, Cal.—(ANP)—Just around the corner is resting national and perhaps universal fame for Miss Teresa Harris, pretty little brownskin girl of twenty, a graduate of Jefferson High School, and former student of voice at the University of Southern California. Already she has taken the professional nom-deplume of Tessie Maize, for though very quite, modest, and unassuming, she perhaps realizes that fame is sure to attend her wonderful talents. Tessie was engaged to sing at the Lincoln Theatre last winter when the Lafayette Players staged "Irene." A director of Little Orchid Annie was attracted by her voice and engaged her as the only colored member of the cast. Completing a lengthy run there, she was engaged by Laskys, then the Christie studio in the picture just completed, in which she sings a special song in a special part. Singing a new version of "Daddy, Won't You Please Come Home" in Laskys "Thunderbolt," she was given two good closeups and was allowed a full song alone. Tessie is the sister of Sam Harris, well known dancer of the team Sam and Sam, and daughter of the late Anthony Harris, assistant superintendent of the American Mutual Insurance Company. J.

Thousands Attend Funeral Services; Kinchion At Head GOTHAM EDITORS AFRICAN PRINCE WILL BATTLE FOR DELIVERS TALK ALDERMAN SEAT IN NEW ORLEANS Dallas, Texas—Dallas is used to big funerals, but no member of the funerals has ever died and been funeralized in this city who received the honor accorded the mortal remains of William Shedrick Willis, for the last 12 years grand chancellor of the Colored Knights of Pythias of Texas, who died at a local hospital Wednesday, August 7, 1:15 p.m., from a stroke of apoplexy, which followed swift upon the heels of an operation for acute appendicitis. A short, simple funeral service was conducted from the family residence here last Saturday morning, attended by thousands who blocked the streets for several blocks and made traffic stoppages. The funeral service given their last opportunity to view the remains before the funeral procession body lay in state until removed to the church Monday for the funeral service.

Dickson offered prayer, and Mrs. F.A.M. of the Chancellor, who was a member of the Court of Calanthe, made a heroic effort to deliver a short eulogy. At the church the funeral service was also short, being less than two hours. The church was also a large church by the mammoth crowd in viewing the body before transporting it to the cemetery where it was placed in the farmland. Men, women and children gathered in Waco from all sections of Texas, and the streets were lined with automobiles bearing license plates from the Chancellor. The church was also a large church. It was the longest funeral cortege in the history of Waco, and yet it bore none of the characteristic earmarks of a funeral demonstration or parade. It was big and long, but solemn and sacred. Cabinet Pledges Cooperation The grand lodge officers returned to Dallas Monday night and Tuesday morning the new grand chancellor called his cabinet and aides together and discussed freely and frankly his policy and program as titular head of the order.

AFRICAN PRINCE DELIVERS TALK IN NEW ORLEANS New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—Prince Kaba Rega, African evangelist and lecturer, well known for his activities in educational and charitable circles in the interest of his race is delivering addresses throughout the South. Prince Rega is a native of British East Africa, on the east bank of the river Nile between Abysinia and River Nile. He is the youngest son of King Aziam Kaba Rega, who rules over a kingdom of about 35,000 people under instruction of the African court. He lives in Egypt. While he was a small boy, Prince Rega was brought from Africa by an English trader. He received his education in England, graduating from Oxford. He became a Christian minister and his father, the king and the tribe, all of whom are Mohammedans. He came near to losing his life on this mission however, the king telling him that in view of the fact that they were not a Christian nation to generation and that it would take years of patient, hard work to achieve In relating interesting events concerning his father's kingdom, Prince Rega stated that the tribe is located about 500 miles inland from the coast and the only white men who ever visit there are English traders who hold a concession from the English government for exclusive trading rights with the Unyoros. Continuing, he said salt is one of the most precious articles of trade, there being none available except from the English. As there is no form of money in use, he has seen a be-package of salt traded for ivory, diamonds, or like articles worth a thousand dollars. Prince Rega, while in making address throughout the country, is soliciting funds for Cooman Island Industries and Orphan Home which he found several years ago in South PAGE TWO—FIRST IN EDITORIALS TEACHERS ELECT NORDIC WRITER DR. JOHONSON AT GIVES OPINION NATIONAL MEET ABOUT NEGROES Jackson, Tenn.—(ANP) - Dr. Murray Johnson, president, presided over the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, by acclamation of the annual convention which was held during the past week. The convention was designed to problems faced by the teachers and the educators enthusiastically into the disheath of the schools open to Negroes. To inspire or to inspire hope in the hearts of the black boys and girls and to inject it into the lives of Negroes, this was the keynote spoken by Dr. John W. Davis, the retiring president. The process made by Negro teachers was cited and reasons for retardation in certain sections were explained. Longer school terms, more teachers were among the things stressed as outstanding needs in education. The spirit of Mississippi cropped up during the second night in session when Dr. Tinker flanked University spoke and referred to the experiences with North Carolina. This was the first time the white folks did not agree with the statement and the discussions there.

Colored insurance companies during recent years have been much exercised over practices of this sort, if which they claim to have been the frequent victims. At the recent annual session of the National Negro Insurance Association at Little Rock, various executives attacked viciously the practice of what they termed "unethical physicians who would sign sick certificates with no basis of illness to go upon thus defrauding the companies of large sums during the course of a year. The large number of medical examiners present formed an organization to hold in elevating standards and to discourage unusual practices. M. S. Sturt, the dynamic general manager of Universal Life handled the case for his company. He declared to interviewers that insofar as his company was concerned, they were determined to stamp out the pernicious practice and that convictions would face every agent and physician whom they were able to anorehend.

Voluntary reductions in electric rates by the Dollar Power and Light Company bring new industries to Dallas and will save around $150,000 a year. Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—One of the offshoots from the recent excitement of the college admissions and Negroes at the Jackson park bathing beach in this city, has been a source of anger by angry white persons to Mrs. Jenna E. Lawrence, sister-in-law of one of her students against the white assailants in a letter which was sent to her, detailing how the white had set upon her sister-in-law and twenty-grade girls who had been sent to send five of the girls to hospitals, and Mrs. Lawrence's sister-in-law in a blind from shock caused by her ejection from the beach. Mrs. Lawrence was written anonymously to Mrs. Lawrence on the same day that her letter appeared. "Presuming you are the party who wrote in today's Tribune, I am a white man, here in New York. I have never failed to help Negroes to many of our foreigner here. I know the Negro like to be South. And I mean this letter for you and every Negro's good and no The Negro is his own worst enemy. Here in the North and in the South he's all the same in this one trouble-making fact—he wants to associate with white people in all that they do. Why did your friends pick out a bench far from your own color and race and want to force your presence on white people? The Negro wants nothing for his own race, exclusively. He is only satisfied when he can force his presence among white people. I've seen it proven a million times. Put on the same kind of street cars, trains or buses, with Negro employees and for exclusive Negro travel at a lower rate of fare and there are not ten per cent of the Negroes who would use them. They would force themselves into the same cars for whites and the same seats. "Here in Chicago we have 50 miles of lake shore and your Negroes won't have beaches for yourselves exclusively. You want to bathe with a white man. White people, like myself even the most of friends to集团有限公司 people, don't want you to be their You, as a different race and color shouldn't want to be with or have white people around you. It's like oil and water—it can't be done. And Mrs. Lawrence, it never will be. Shrewd Negroes and white politicians play your race up to a "white heat" on the "social equality" stuff and some food prominent white persons dines with a Negro and right away at the whole negro population become the same way. "Hearing at last!" the white folks have accepted us as their social equals. And you proceed then to act as you feel, and some a lot of Negroes and a few whites are with the 'angels.' And it will ever be thus. As much as I would be and like Negroes, I would die ten thousand deaths before I would accept him on a social level. Now, if I'm that way, how do you think the tens of millions here who naturally at all times and under any circumstances dislike Negroes, how do you think they feel on the question. The secret of the Negroes in the United States is that in his catering to his own race exclusively in all things, establishing his own stores, factories and enterprises, restaurants, and so forth, and employing only Negro help. "Because DePriest is talking like a drunken sailor," or a Musedlin, doesn't mean he has the power to help people want you or intend to have you force yourselves upon them in their social affairs or daily lives. Mrs. Hoover and the wife of every publician in Washington might eat with a Negro every night and the great American public would still be the best one to say so. But when she is does now: 'Negroes, stay on your own side of the high board fence.' "If you want the truth in the matter, there are far more people in the world than there were one year ago. Why? Do bestwet and Mrs. Hoehne go to a crowd of white people burning or hanging the black beast who attacked them? Do bestwet and Mrs. Hoehne go here every day that I can tell from their looks at white women what they are doing in a list or an alley. They deserve all of us and trying to stop lynching, why don't you try to stop the crimes that cause lynching? Did any of your women have to do anything because you have no originality at all. All you know or can do is do as you see. You know which end of your hat goes on if you hadn't seen a white man put on a hat and then you die, awake then for attaching white women and there'll be no more lynchings." "Another thing: Don't get sealed on Chicago. Chicago is but a tiny spot in this country and because you have a certain amount of 'equality' here and many low bred, low-lived whites put themselves on an equal footing socially and otherwise with you, don't for Heaven's sake bull yourself into the dream that the entire United States is that way." "One thing more: You threatened 'race riots.' Are you crazy? You'd kill some whites of course. But, listen. Suppose you killed them by the wholesale—do you think the others would take boats for Europe and leave the country here for the blacks? No, they'd annihilate you, that's all!"

From Daniel 9 it is clear that twenty years means a definite time. It states from the time of Daniel that the captive was found (was taken captive) 2 Reewarded by Israel (v.10.14) God's purpose in the captivity was to save the captive.

C.—(ANP)—Five Marines brutally assaulted Kit Singleton aged taxi driver, here Tuesday night, and took his car, a Packard sedan. Singleton, who was found near here about a midnight, on the road in a serious condition, told officers that the Marines had engaged him to take them across the river. As he neared the bridge, one of them struck him from behind with a blunt instrument and all of them beat him. Thinking that he was dead, they threw him out of the car and left him. The car was found in Savannah, Tuesday afternoon, but no trace of the assailants was discovered.

The charter that poets sang. The movement is without a name as yet. The "Back to the Kitchen" home movement it might well be called. But nameless and youthful though it is, this movement to make a difference is ready a force to be reckoned with, a power backed by the hundreds of millions devoted to the manufacture of appliances used in kitchen. Home Food is Best Based on the belief that the health of all members of the family unit, both young and old can better be maintained, by food prepared in the kitchen, the housewife and mother, the movement has the backing of some of the great social and public welfare agencies of the country. Moreover, from food and kitchen appliance manufacturers, sympathetic with the cause which must vivify their future, certain phases of the advertising copy and other printed literature of a number of the larger food manufacturers, particularly of baking powder, sugar, evaporated milk, electric and gas range. In addition, backers of the plan aim to build up the "occupational practice" of the kitchen worker, to make her best pride in her work, to restore some dignity in her work in the American home.

Dean of the home center, the department, said the speaker was a woman of broad persuasive abilities to seldom. A leader in the "back to the kitchen" movement, he said, needed a need of an organized effort in the kitchen. She cited Department of Labor statistics in a survey of over 600 women in the past eight years the proportion of women dropped from 32.4 to 32.3 per cent, while apartment house dwelling dropped from 24.4 to 3.7 per cent. Two-family apartments increased from 17.2 to 11.1 per cent. Divorces Increasing Parallelising this profound change in the mode of American home life has been the result of conciliations by W. F. Ogham, University of Chicago sociology. The marriage contracted one will result in divorce, that city life discourages marriage by an approach that is contrary to the number of restaurant waiters in this country has increased over a period of three times as fast as the increase in population—indicating a table for the public restaurant. Movement Well Backed "A primary function of the home is to supply the family with adequate well cooked foods," she explained. That there is a tendency to surrender this function to the public dining room, has increasingly forced itself upon the attention of sociologists, divorce judges, home economics specialists, legislators, and manufacturers financially interested in the welfare of the family kitchen. Perhaps if the idea were theப்புள்ள, though of a few social workers it might end as a good many well meaning dreams have ended—where they began, in dreams—but hard boiled manufacturers are aware of a decreasing interest in all that pertains to the kitchen, and are out to fight for a stake in which they have many millions invested. Therefore, we predict you will hear more of this plan in the next few years.

CLASSED WITH MM LOOKS FEELS RES A CO C.J.WALK "25YEARS TH WALER'S GLOSSINE MADE BY THE TRADE CENTER WASHINGTON, CITY OF WASHINGTON KESON RETIRED CLERK RAPS DePRIEST FOR POSITION The Associated Negro Press in your issue of July 27, credits Congressman Oscar DePriest with saying: "If Negroes would organize more than 100 congressional districts might be represented by able and capable members of the group." If the congressman was correctly objected he erred in the number of district-led counties and the majority of colored people. He served in attributing to the race political solidarity. Texas does not contain a congressional district in which a majority of its population is colored. Few districts in the South now contain a majority colored. Any congressional district, by jerrymundering, may be changed to certain a majority white. In recognition of the�ity years loyalty, Mayor Thompson made it possible for the colored people to elect a congressman of their own race to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Congressman Madden. With the mayers selection of the candidate, a colored man divided the colored vote, securing 4,600 that Mr. DePriest would have received the right. We believe it is destructive of the interest of the race to advocate political solidarity. It was the freedman's blind loyalty to anything called Republican that made it necessary for the white South, during reconstruction, to subordinate personal opinions politically and agree to abide by the will of the majority, without which civil government would have perished. No benefit will result from agitating enforcement of the fifteenth amendment to the U.S. Constitution error Al Smith for the persistence she brought suffrage searer the colored suffrage-searer out of congressional legislation.

Indianapolis, Ind Editing The Informer: Los Angeles, Calif. — The death of Ace Foreman by drawing Friday in Los Angeles, where he was tragic in a life that was very cruel. The eyes of Nego ciphers all came out of the sky. He was for two years ago when he attempted a transcontinental plane flight from New York to Los Angeles through lack of funds for a good plane was forced to desist. He came from his home in Texas at an early age and graduated from high school. He then went to a factory in New York learning mechanics and plane building. Returning to himself to Ernie Longbrake, well-known white aviator and learned to fly a plane with a name for himself in aviation he secured a plane through subscriptions from Eagle Air port for New York. February fourteen from Salt Lake City, $250 was sent him through Eagle Air port. Fourteen from Salt Lake City, $250 was sent him through Eagle Air port. He proceeded from there to Kansas City, gawd of the frenzy of Chicago, where the authorities refused to permit him to fly any more in a plane de la僻僻ed old "Jen- Friends and his family sent fare for him and his mechanic, Artis Ward, and they returned by rail. A year later he opened a school, built a plane and crashed in it, becoming slightly hurt. During all this time he was a highly valued chauffeur for the wealthy Frank Sloan, leaving his enclove for his own ventures and coming back when they failed, his latest attempt being the opening of a confectionary which he closed a few months ago. It was while he was returning with his employer and family on their palatial yeast that he felt over board and drowned. It was a strange turn of fate that snuffed out his life for he had met with innumerable narrow escapes while flying and had once leaped over board from this same yatch and saved a colored girl who had fallen overboard and was drowning. The fact he was a good swimmer introduced an element of mystery into his death but although a life belt was thrown, he never came up to grasp it, so it is thought the fall must have stunned him. Although he became the subject of considerable criticism when his flight failed, he above all was the gentle, fearless, handsome young fellow who perhaps errored in attempting the impossible, which is to succeed in aviation without the proper capital.

At any rate, Binnis won the nomination. It was written. At the same meeting, Gentfial, who is leader of the district as well as Assemblyman, was nominated for his sixth term in the assembly, defeating Counsellor Francis R. Rivers, who also sought the nomination. The constituency of the 11th District is wrought up over Gentfial's speech of acceptance in which he referred to the colored waters as "the Unthinking Negro." One Aaron P. Carruthers in a letter to the editor of the Age, Mr. Moore, wellness he was made sick of the face that was a colored man at that election where colored women yelled about for Gen. that victory and edited men went down to defeat because of perfil of their own kind. Referring to Mr. Harris' nomination, Carruthers says: "As for George Harris, the groom-in-law candidate for any and everything in any and all Harlem districts, he is about the only Negro who would talk about Negro leadership and then make a deal with Gentfial to further his own interests. The less said about him the better." It is plain that Rivers and Moses will make and independent stand for themselves in the primaries and that they will also make an independent stand in the general elections. Thus, the 19th assembly district as well as the 21st is face to face with a divided voting strength which will permit the Democrats a golden opportunity to walk in and return their candidates to offices which they lost two games ago. Both districts are represented by colored Republicans in the allied-manic chamber, but they stand in a fair way to lose their representation through internal strife. --- LOCAL HAPPENINGS Mrs. Hauel Lemone, 1806 Lakin, is visiting relatives in San Antonio.

SYKES, Treasurer AMERICANS EAT 35 POUNDS OF SUGAR MORE THAN 1910 Sweets Can Add Energy if Wiseely Used, But Excess is Dangerous. Says Expert. New York, Americans today are consuming more than 115 pounds of sugar per capita each year, or 35 pounds annually. That is added 35 pounds doing to American health. The flow of sugar and anti-sugar drugs over the country has been Dr. Walter H. Eddy, widely known dietary expert of Columbia university, to offer a comprehensive answer to the question: "What happens when you buy Homekeeping sugar? Harmful effects of sugar are true, but the effects may be rather than any harm in the sugar itself, which is an essential food" he points out, adding that the excess may be represented by the amount consumed by the amount consumed. The average healthy adult can consume three to four ounces a day without difficulty. The amount consumed by any indivi dent depends largely on, on the individual, of physical activity. For example, since sugar is a fuel to buy a boy who spends several hours a day in strenuous outdoor games can consume more than the average amount and find it advantages, since it adds to his energy. His sister who spends the afternoon curled up with a book will quietly grow fat and slow of mind and body if she tried to eat the same amount of sugar in candy form. The same comparison applies to the office worker, who spends his days at his desk, and the faborer whose body is being exercised through the day. Candy itself may supply needed energy at times. With athletes, if eaten soon before a context, it adds fuel to supply bodily power. It is found. But if eaten before needs the result is discomforting because the chemical action of the sugar has retarded the flow of gastric juices. “Suppose we jump a lot of sugar into the stomach just before dinner,” says the Good Homekeping article. “In the first place it tends to destroy our appetite for less strongly flavored food. If we sit down to dinner and consume our beverstask, the steak finds no gastric juice to digest it. It has to remain there until the sugar is digested and the acid begins to flow, or it is sent on only partly digested. You see then the wisdom in placing desserts at the end of the meal.” Doctor Eddie dislays the claim that candy causes tooth decay. "Sugar is the number one cause of tooth decay, so how much of it could remain in the crevices of the teeth, since it is readily soluble in saliva and hence would be stained illicit," he points out.

All the banks WALL STREET IS SEEN BY CIMBEE DURING JAUNT (Ry S. R. WILLIAMS) Brooklyn, N.Y. Last Friday I decided it was about time to invade Wall Street, the financial district of New York, where millionaires are made and broken in a day. So boarding the subway at Ashburn in Street Brooklyn, I code to Wall Street, where I the train walked up into the heart of all money markets of the world. Now, no doubt like you, I had all my life had a peculiar conception of what I would see in Wall Street. I had thought of it as a trim little thoroughfare with a stock exchange on the street, with big banks and brokers, with brokers' offices and money lenders lining both sides of the street, a few sangu banks' offices among them, and on the inside a group of powerful, sinister老爷men with side whiskers, the keepers of the money devil, pulling the money that make prices go up and down. But this is what I saw and learned by questioning every man, boy or policeman I am across. This financial district has blocks, and runs from the Custom Home at Bowling Green, up to Liberty Home. Here Manhattan Island is only about three-fourths of a mile from the Curt Market. Home is about half a mile. The center of the section is the financial district known as Wall Street. But the center of it in importance is the Stock Exchange, where there are other exchanges, for instance the Curt Market in Trinity Place, right behind old Trinity Church; the Produce Exchange, the other several others which slip my memory. One affable "cop" informed me that in this district there are 90 banks, the greatest in America. There are also 23 trust companies, and the fiscal office of 130 railroads. There are 57 steamship companies, and the maritime insurance companies. It has 15 safe, deposit companies, and 90 steamship companies, 150 coal and iron companies and bundles of powerful industrial corporations like the Standard Oil company at 26 Broadway. And he added that the gangle and lose, there are several churches, a jail two rivers and a cemetery." The bank of New York, Founded immediately after the clow of the Revolution, as well as the Bank of Manhattan founded by Aaron Burr about the same time, are still doing business to the spots where they were born. From the visitors' gallery in the Stock Exchange, you look down on the floor of the exchange, and behold an immense archer larger than two foots tall. The archer is very high, like in a theatre, and all of is marble. The floor is crowded with men; there must be more than 900 brokers. All are grouped around in certain fixed positions. The archer, an told, is assigned to some past, and all trading in that stock must be done there. If you arrive before to a.m. and hear only the buzz of conversation-going on on the floor, not be deceived, just wait until the preacher brings him to bring his hammer down on the bell which open the market. Then the real noise bores loose. Men about and gesticulate and act like man, but not get frightened; there is a man in the apartment's shadow. Each man in the apartment's shadow, mother's, just the配合 the comma of sounds, which upsets your nerves. They tell me that these books lay a pretty sum for them for membership something like $50,000, which sounds unbelievable. There are now 1,155 The volume of business done in this exchange is almost beyond our understanding. The stock of 1121 car notations are tailed in more than 700,000,000 shares, worth 867,000,000 was $82,000,000 plus $72,000,000,000 in bond sales and the total is 885,000,000. But what about these 90 banks? They are performing their function also, such as underwriting bonds, are floating stock of borrowings.

The Schuyler "views with alarm" between the Scylla and Charybels of their differing emotions, the more outsider and more American "Aframerican" can steer a middle course of patient training to a goal now. So much has been said by Mr. Wiliard's article in so many places and by so many writers and speakers that he is supererogation to speak further Mr. Wiliard is optimistic, and justly twenty-five years and see changes in thought which have come about all basically. Mr. Schuyler also looks backward. Mr. Wiliard remembers the group in a group of Southerners any day a class, under any condition, breathing, intolerance of expression, intolerance of emotion, not denied with faint hostility or ill-diagnosed scars. Mr. Wiliard calls students now-white Southerners in revolt against injustice toward their fellow students with black students; Southern students with white students earnestly seeking to exemplify in their lives the breadth of down the color line in their relations with black students; Southern students with North Carolina, making serious and thoughtful studies of the Negro and African-American platforms. Mr. Schuyler quotes excerpts from the answers to the question of the attitudes of cities towards the Negro and African-American institutions, baths, amusements, parks. From scores of cities, taken in the Indian Seaboard, the Pacific Coast, the East, come the same sordid tale of the refinement of mental cruelty, of Any Booktonian solution of the problem—by the owning and operating a Negress—is beside the issue. They must, of necessity, be poorly managed, attracted, anabundance to the educated, lowering to the undereducated, lowering to the undereducated, by the way is sounded by this pose Mr. Schuyler's article—a crudite note, side explanation. Considering their power, they have not done so badly; but they haven't in this way dressed up with their unglamour. This in a way, leaves the Negress all dressed up with nowhere to go. They are almost always the more bitter, the more bitter he is about staying in his place. And school graduate Here, at least, Mr. Schuyler and Mr. Schuyler almost say 'Says the bitter' not I and far better one read this far and believe that the right is won. It is still just beginning, and he would be over-educated en-ethnicist who could feel that the is wrong. But the thing to rejoice over is that, while the North grows more attracted, anabundance, he I comes from the South. After all, Mr. Schuyler and Mr. Vilard were not speaking the same language. Mr. Vilard was the flesh of the earth, earth, and the immediate needs of the body, food, and death dealt with things of the spirit: changes in the human heart desire for external verities of religion and love. Who shall say that both are not right? Mr. Schuyler is pleasing to Mr. Vilard's book is "Halden-Jullus publication: The Renaissance in the United States. One of the most interesting Phenomena in Our History." Mr. Schuyler whacks the taboo on the head with a firm and untender hole in his very first paragraph. Then, very calmly and dispassionately, and with a singularly un-Schuyler-like whether of noun and adjective synonyms for the word Negro, he proceeds to set forth the accumulated evidence on the subject of intermarriage, and the result of so-called unions of mis-separation. He has gathered his material from every source. Mr. Schuyler is nothing if not careful, pain-taking and through-gone in his method of approach, and in his gathering of data. And this very impersonality makes his mass of evidence all the less convincing. He has written, not "Nation," but "United" "What life, 'Whatever one's eup" "He concludes," "here surely is one of the most interesting phenomena in our national life."

Partly, because he is not always dragon slaying, why should a man become bitter when he has known success in a chase, and why should he not always dragon slaying, those can testify that he have seen him in a manly but dogs at Coney Island.

ELECTION BOARD NAMES NEGROES Memphis, Tenn.–(ANP). The naming of Edward B. Davis, local undertaker, and Mrs. Frances Reems, teacher in the Lincoln School, as registrars in the second precinct of the twenty-ninth ward, by the new county election board, has caused much comment and aroused much interest. This is the first time that Negroes have been appointed to serve in this capacity since reconstruction days and is being heralded as a step forward by Negro citizens and a backward step by Negrophobists, who have been loud and bitter in their criticism. The second precinct of the twenty-ninth ward is populated largely by Negroes and the election board felt that some recognition was due the Negro voters. The fact that several white families also live in the precinct and will have to be registered by Negro registrars, has given rise to the criticism on the part of the whites. Texas has 34 cities with population of more than 10,000 and is fifth among the states with an estimated population of 5,487,000. over the Panthers by the local school would not be entirely unwelcome.

It is not conducted upon emotional gratitude, friendships, but upon the foundation of service, values and efficiency. If you provide these things, lines of demarriage between customers will not be very indicative. Do yourself as being exactly on the same level as everyone else engaged in your lines of business. There is no difference in how you operate your output. Rid yourselves of the psychological handicap of counting because of being who you are or what you are. There is no place to be.” "Meet competition with a smile, apire to become as good as the best your line. Use all the methods that the team can help, strengthen your organization, help, strengthen your organization, as to increase the opportunities for you to be rewarded with a successful business."

During the last big election, when Democratic Al Smith went down to defeat before the throngs which elected Herbert Hoover, the Republicans sought to point out the failure of the Democrats to make any substantial recognition of deserving colored voters and supporters of the party. At that time, the now well known "dual leadership" proposition had not cropped out in the Republican ranks. This "jim crow" move has done more to strengthen the Democrats than anything that could have happened. There is no question as to the enthusiasm with which colored leaders are flocking to the standards of the Democratic party since Robert S. Conklin was silly enough to allow his jim-crow tactics to get the better of his judgment, and openly flout the policy of the Republicans to the winds. The very things for which the Republicans had stood were torn down by Conklin's latest move, and the past is feeling keenly the effects of this piece of strategy. So eager was Conklin to retain his hold on the party, he has destroyed his bridges before he crossed them. Among the more prominent color candidates, the workers who are said to have joined the defense are bringing about the defeat of the Republican candidates in the coming election. Senator John H. Nelson of the National Urban League; James Whelan Johnson of the N. A. A. C. P. Organization; James Hubert, New York Urban League head; Dr. William L. Reagan, a new for congress, who refused the offer; Dr. Charles Roberts and others equally as important and popular in their desertion to the Democratic ranks grew out of the suit instituted by the former Warmer of the 1st Assembly District and Sam S. Koenig chairman of the county committee, to show cause when the governor In Mrs. Warner's complaint, she alleges that Conklin is reported to have said he would resign if "a nigger woman" should be designated to run for office. Conklin strenously denies this, but says he did state business pressure would necessitate his resignation. A bitter fight is being waged by Mrs. Warner and her backers against the proposed division which would leave the whites, in power at though the district is 75% colored James V. Kilroe is representing Mrs. Warner in the case which is being heard before the supreme court. Mrs. Warner contends that the proposed division is illegal and against the Republican Party rules and the election law of the state. If the courts uphold Conklin's decision to divide the district with the colored faction more puppets under his control. Meanwhile, "Commissioner Ferdinand Q. Morton, recently designated as leader in Harlem is mending the Democratic fences and preparing to wage a lively and merry fight during the coming campaign for mayor and city officials. LONGSHOREMEN GO ON STRIKE; 200 LEAVE DOCK Boston, Mass. — (ANP) A hundred twenty-five Negro, non-union union men loaded the *American-Hawaiian stewardship* Ohioan at Commonwealth Union men were called out on strike. While there has been no disorder so far, the union is running high against them. The union has imposed of white and colored bales out. The strike which has lasted several days has spread to the mystic docks where the police are out. The policemen are on the side of the pier to preserve order. The strike-breakers were served their dinner on the Ohioan in order to avoid the trouble arose over the report. The trouble arose over the report of the longshoremen at Commercial Union to haul 300-pound bales of wool from the slings to the pier, instead of the bales being haul one pound of that weight. Appeals are being made to the union's breakers to cease aiding the steamship company in further crushing their fellow union men at this time, especially for Negro labor, which could the appeals to fall on time.

FIRST IN INFLUENCE—PAGE SEVEN NEGRO OFFICERS FINISH COURSE IN CAMP DEVENS Camp Devens, Mass.—(ANP) Twenty-nine officers of the 428th Infantry-Reserve, under the command of Lieutenant Colonel West A. Hamilton, with headquarters at Washington, D.C., completed a tour of training duty with the third battalion, 3720 Infantry, Massachusetts National Guard at Camp Devens, Mass., recently. The 428th Infantry is the only organized colored regiment of reserves. It has 107 commissioned officers assigned to it ranging from lieutenant colonel to second lieutenant. All of the senior officers are veterans of the World War. The majority of them saw service in France. One first lieutenant, Charles G. Young, is a holder of the coveted distinguished Service Cross. The junior officers are largely products of the R. O. T. C. unit of Howard University. Since the organization of this regiment under Lieutenant Colonel Hamilton, groups of its officers have been ordered to active duty each summer. Last year it was trained at Camp Ritchie, Maryland. During the period of training duty just completed the regiment was moved to an advanced party which arranged with the advance party of the 372D officers. It then organized its own headquarters, conducted all of the administrative work in connection with the regiment, maintained its own mees and handled all of its supplies. The regiment was formed into two provisional battalions, one of which was attached each day to the third infantry battalion. The other battalion received instruction in conferences, by lectures and training in the automatic infantry army, chemical warfare, field fortifications, communication and anism of the deployment and tactical employment of the rife and machine gun company. When attached to the 372D infantry, the officers assisted those of the 372D infantry, the men of their commands, and commanded the battalion every other day and daily at formal guard mount. Both battalions spent the last days in the training period on the regiment's own personnel, previously qualified in marksmanship as coaches the others firing The regiment participated in two reviews, one for the camp commanders for the governor of Massachusetts.

ANY MAN WHO IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHEED HIS BLOOD FOR HIS COUNTRY, IS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GIVEN A SQUARE DEAL APPLICATION, IS ENTITLED TO MORE AND NOW SHOULD BE RELEASED AS MONEY. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 17, 1929 THE HOSPITAL PLOT THICKENS! Showing both a fondness and anxiety in attempting to castigate 'The Informer and its editor in its editorial columns, the Houston Gargoyle, a white weekly publication, writing under the caption of "Under the X-Ray," made a hold through illogical and fruitless effort in its latest issue to rush to the defense of the superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital and her chief Nordic advisor. Knowing absolutely nothing about the conditions obtaining at this local race institution, this Nordic publication endeavors to pass judgment upon former members of the board who have had the temerity to disent and disagree with certain administrative acts and some of the official dignitaries connected with the local hospital. Undoubtedly, the Gargoyle article was inspired with the express purpose of "getting even" with The Informer and its editor, for listen what this weekly sheet says on this subject: "The most inflammatory of these expressions, and the ones which have been in unqualified and taste have been printed from week to week in The Houston Informer, published by C. F. Richardson, who, in company with E. L. Harrison, J. W. Hubert, and H. P. Carter, is a resigned member of the board." Right here the erudite and effident editor of "Gargy" talked out of turn and demonstrated his gross ignorance of this editor's status in connection with the Negro hospital; for the four men mentioned are not "resigned" members of the board. They were not even candidates for redirection and would not have served had the czar and czarina indicated that they desired this quartet to remain on the board. Continuing, the Gargorie raises thusly: "They (speaking about the Informer's editors) on the hospital situation) have taken the form of attacks on J. B. Gargorie (Gargorie's spelling, not ours), present chairman of the hospital board of directors, Superintendent Bright, and Dr. Shaughter. The ugly attitude of mind they convey and the utter lack of regard they show for Dr. Shaughter's continuous and unselfish efforts to serve the highest authorities in the hospital and to be wholly incapable of appreciating the spirit of fairness. Whattever mistakes have been made will only be aggravated with such resorts to prejudice as his paper sponsors. It is such as he makes impossible any widespread faith that his race is ready for self-heal, much less self-determination. It is the hospital's most obvious good fortune that no such attitude is represented in the hospital situation. For its attitude in the hospital situation and its news stories and editorial utterances on the institution. The Informer has no apologies to offer; and, if the "gargorie" editor is attempting to hold a brief for Dr. Shaughter as a hospital expert and authority, we suggest that he investigate the records of Jefferson Davis Hospital when the burned and scholarly professor sought to explain the circumstances of some of the white doctors who were connected with said hospital during the Shaughter reign! As for Superintendent M. H. Bright, we wonder if the Gargorie editor knows her general record throughout the country when it comes to hospital management? Has he the information that, excepting possibly one hospital, it has been necessary to dispense with her services at most of the institutions where she has seen Does the Gargoyle editor believe that any person should serve as head of a hospital who does not believe in medicine, operations and doctors, and who endorses the prescribe some of the patients to his or her religious views? Here are excerpts from a letter from the head of one of the largest hospitals where Superintendent Bright saw service and was "fired." "I always hate to say anything desigualy or ill of any person, and I do so now only because I want to help the thing which will be for the good of the greatest number. I can say that Mrs. Bright was a splendid disciplinarian; she kept the hospital neat and clean, but as you have evidently found out, she did not have the patience well suited for the job she boasted while at. Hospital of her Indian extraction, which, naturally, was not conducive to peace and harmony in a hospital which is staffed by Negro men and women, and where the patients are all Negroes. You can see from this, of course, a lack of good judgment, common sense and tact on her part. She had many good qualities, but undoubtedly she needs tact and the ability to work well. Hospital of her Indian extraction." The head of another Negro hospital where Superintendent Bright once labored and which institution she has begged her to return, writes the following indictment: "Mrs. M. H. Bright. . . . was a worker of no mean ability and but for her cynicism and duplicity she would be a most desirable hospital executive." Another head of an institution of learning, where the present hospital indentified formerly served, stated during a visit to Hospital practically the same things written above by two eminent men, one white and one colored. The Gargoyle seeks to charge The Informer and its editor with the present hospital situation, and yet this paper but reflects the attitude of the many and courageous Negroes of Houston, whose lives were lost in the Civil War. The Gargoyle also notes that the ornate Norcic collar and his learned savant are going to receive a rude jolt in this hospital controversy before many moons. The Informer speaks with authority concerning the internal operations of the Houston Negro Hospital, the Gargoyle merely as a scribe, inspired either through misinformation, prejudice or law. Being a member of the same race as the superintendent and the hospital patients (we wonder can the "Gargy" editor say this much?), the editor of The Informer has "inside information." The day has passed when any white man can think and speak for Negroes, and no sane, sensible and rationally-minded white man even makes an effort to serve as spokesman and medium for the Negro race. Negro has the intelligence and courage to differ with some members of the white race, these narrow-minded and tolerant Nordics show their smallness and "fairness" by labeling such Negroes as "inflammatory," "radical," et cetera. The Informer charges that Superintendent M. H. Bright has neither the temperament nor background to make a capable, sensible and tactful hospital executive; and we charge further that Dr. J. W. Slaughter (since he has permitted his "inspired" character to be used in the hospital) is a local hospital expert, and that his pedantic attitude renders it very difficult for him to tolerate or countenance any difference of opinion on a matter of any sort. The "Gargy" editor wants to demonstrate some of the fairness about which he prates so vociferously, why doesn't he get both sides of the question before passing sentence upon certain local egrees? What this Nordic scribe know about the Houston Negro Hospital, except what Dr. Slaughter or some supporter of the present superintendent told him? Does the Gargoyle editor know why Prof. I. M. Terrell was ousted as superintendent of this hospital? Is he acquainted with the facts in this case? Is he bourgeois and groundless charges were made against Mr. Terrell, alleging everything from the theft of a can of peas to an attempted criminal attack upon a certain female attack of the institution? Does the Gargoyle editor know that Mr. Terrell was "framed" and that every effort was made to discredit the Terrell administration? Before charging The Informer and its editor with being unfair in the hospital matter, why doesn't the Gargoyle print our side of the story and then permit its handful of readers to determine who is right, fair and honest in this controversy. Does the Gargoyle apologize what he has done for the cause of the Negro race and suffering humanity, but most certainly he is not infallible, and this paper doubts whether the scholarly professor is a hospital authority, or knows very much about the new Negro. In this connection does the Gargoyle editor know that Dr. Shirley's hospitalization scheme was nullified and destroyed by the actions and attitude of the present superintendent? Finally, what does the Gargoyle and its editor know about the present superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital, and what does this Nordic publication know relative to the reaction of the colored citizenry to her retention as superintendent of this institute? In conclusion, we suggest that the Gargoyle get some facts on the hospital efforts and records of Superintendent M. H. Bright, who is the director of the hospital's emergency room before rushing to her defense; and, as for Dr. Slaughter, a trip to Jefferson Davis Hospital should afford this stalwart hospital champion all the information necessary as to the ability of the Rice professor as a hospital executive and administrator. SOME ALL-NEGRO HOSPITALS In view of the fact that the argument has been advanced here quite freely that Negroes are incompetent and incapable of managing, operating and controlling hospitals, and that they are not qualified for the duties incumbent upon superintendents, hospital staffs, et cetera. The Informer has gathered a list of which are manned and run in their entirety by Negro personnel. The United States Veteran Hospital, located at Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Alabama, is a striking example of the Negro's ability to conduct a modern hospital, if permitted to function unhampered and unhindered. This institution has a daily average of 550 patients and its personnel consists of 344 Negro employees, from surgeon-in-chief to clerk. The Wheatley Washington, D.C., another institution responsible to the federal government as in the case of the Tuskegee plant, has a 550-bed capacity, with an all-Negro personnel. The Wheatley Provident Hospital, Kansas City, Missouri, an institution approved by the American College of Surgeons, is under colored management from operating room to yard. Tennessee, both an approved and classified institution, is in charge of Negroes. The John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Alabama, another approved and classified elemen- nary institution, has all an-collared management. Provident Hospital, Chicago, Illinois, which ranks as one of the leading institutions of its kind in the country, shows what the New Orleans Medical Center has done. The Douglass and Mercy Hospital, Philadelphia, Pa.; Old General Hospital, Kansas City, Mo.; City Hospital No. 2, St. Louis, Mo.; and Provident Hospital, Baltimore, Md., costing $200,000 and opening during 1928, are some of the other hospitals being run and operated quite successfully in this country by Al-Negro personnel. If Negroes can manage, control and operate their own hospitals in other American cities, why can not Houston Negroes at least be given a chance to demonstrate whether or not they can function in this respect in connection with the Houston Negro Hospital TEXAS PYTHIANS WILL CARRY ON Though bereft of their matchless leader, W. S. Willis, when his election to the supreme chancellorship of the supreme lodge seemed assured, the Knights of Pythias of Texas, under the leadership of L. B. Kinchion, for many years vice grand chancellor of the order, are determined to carry on the good work so nibly initiated and consummated by their fallen and lamented grand chancellor. Out twelve years of hard, untiring and unselfish service, Willis will literally wore out himself in the cause of the order which lay so near and dear to his heart, and, while his intimately demise is deplored and the jurisdiction is grief-striken, the surviving grand lodge officers and members of the order in this state are facing a challenge and a duty which they can not escape conveniently or regard too lightly. Under Mr. Willis' able administration the order in this state had risen from a state of insolvency and virtual bankruptcy to the state of a powerful Negro fraternity in the nation all of which was accomplished within twelve years. The task will devolve upon his successors not only to keep the barmer of Pythianism affaint in this jurisdiction and throughout the Pythian realm, but they must resolutely address themselves to the onerous labors before them and "carry on."

I met him during his college political society. He promoted at his in those days. Nine of him and ambitions of the mind. The impulse reconstruction regime had not only spent its force. Political and expectations ran high. My him had one consuming ambition. He had a eye on a seat in congress till the fourth of July with no fraternity he had witnessed something score of members of his race rising the high seats of power, and with no other thought than that he was graduated on a day, and in the pious pomp of hisUREate but for a brief moment, he returned to his native and secured appointment as a school teacher. But his time ergues were about every day and about his prospects for the president. A campaign was approaching. White politician had gained dominance and renown through own state and had attracted little national attention. He I first met him during his college days. In those days Nine collegiate had high aspirations and ambitions and he was the first to realize of the reconstruction regime had had fully spent its force. Political hopes and expectations ran high. My friend had one consuming ambition — to be the best man he had on his eye on a seat in congress where he had witnessed something like a score of members of his race occupying the high seats of power. He was a bright light than to reach the blissful seat. Dis house, called de kolonial, in 15 stories hi, an I don't see no how minny partants on 2, 4 and 5 rooms in it.

But data what dry tells me dis wun costs de lady we viserted las Suddy nite. He was graduated on a day, and revelled in the pompous glory of his baccalaureate but for a brief moment. He returned he returned to his native state and secured appointment as a member of the national congress and energies were about evenly divided between pedagogy and politics. A national campaign was approaching. A local white politician had gained great eminence and renown throughout his own state and had attracted the attention of the national legislature had been appointed internal revenue of his state—a state whose production of wet goodness yielded large national revenue. My friend waned enclosure personified. He could say nothing more eloquently than Ron Simmons says what he has to say. He could not be persuaded to move into mob not by his reconstitution declaration about Lincoln, Grant and Sumner, which never tired of his facile recital about the majesty of the "grand old party" and the glory of the red, white and blue. Naturally he soon attracted the attention of the political boss who harnessed his elencue to his political machine. He stumped the state from end to end. The people heard him, not only gladly but ruthlessly, and black and white. As a result of that campaign, the Republican party swept the nation and for the first time since the reconstruction a Republican was elected to the senate from that state. The identity of the fortunate one has already been revealed. He led the lieutenant flattering credit for his part in the glorious result. O, no she did tell me—she wuz 2 retirir her sich.

In the meantime this particular senator and ten other senators with like Afro-American obligations and not on their common predicament. Their sides cracked with laughter at the presumption of those impeccable Nego beggers aspiring to fill such high, dignified stations under the government, and to be on the dug up a peg or two. "Go to," they agreed, "let's offer them some minor assignment more in keeping with their sphere and station, and watch the reaction." I do not know exact details of the event that most of them returned home disguised and turned denouncers of the administration. All sorts of threats and political reprisals were hurled at the heads of the ungrateful senators, and I thought that the whole race was in political revolt. But she necesarily required my friend to accept a place in the unclassified service of the Interior Department. His unattended yielded to stern economic necessity.

One day I visted a particular government building, and apied my friend, sometimes candidate for regisder, to the door. I suddenly turned down another alice to keep from embarrassing him Concisions or subconception of my apach, he suddenly darted into the room, and kept from ember raising himself. Now for the recompense. It is a part of the political cunning of every white bono with a Negro hemanchau to encourage his man Prabhu to join him in the political campaign, to register the treasury or minister to Haiti. They calculate beforehand that there will be one doken or so Negro candidates for each of these positions, and the claims of the one doken will be the one that the friend fell for the bait. It was during the first term of the administration of William McKinley that the political ambitions of the colored race reached its climax. On March fourth, 1865, the president of the crowd was crowded with expectant Negro politicians. They came North and South, East and West. They marched in the inauguration process and with the usual vanguard advertisement of the state states avowed and insistent Negro candidates for each of the Africanized positions after mentioned; all of whom were backed by the congressional delegates from their respective states. The president backed by reason of the valiant service in the previous campaign. My friend decided upon the registration of the treasury as his well earned reward for mortuaries service. His service was the certainty of his selection. This happened under McKinley, un der Hoover, it is otherwise.

Thereupon he resigned his little teachership which after all was but a stepping stone to higher things, and took up a lodging in the national capitals of the United States for a appointment. His benevolence of his supporting senator became petiferously persistent. He was repeatedly assured that the president would send in his name, and that he must rest his trust in him.

I leave some fools ons sources. At first he had indulged calls up dee Shagar Hill, cause you and line up their forces behind some strong and formidable Pythian for supreme chancellor of the order. If such a man does not exist in the Texas jurisdiction, then one should be selected from some other jurisdiction, to lead and direct those forces which have realized long since that the supreme lodge stands in dire need of a new titular leader. The death of Mr. Willis did not sound the death knell to the fight for certain principles in the supreme lodge, and it is up to those who believed as the late grand chancellor did, to organize their forces as to attain the desired objective. Texas Pythians are going to carry on under their new leadership, and even though a new engineer now handles the throttle of their fraternal train, he is well qualified for the position through years of service and training in the order whose grand chancellor he now is. Here's hoping him a successful administration
