He forwarded the reception accorded him indicated that the opinion of Mr. Napier as host had not been overtrawn. The address of Mr. Wanamaker stands in a class alone, and must form the subject of an article. He beams and basks him upward through character, intelligence and industry. He Ogden, his former business associate, and told of the constructive work they had set out to do for humanity. "Success is not a matter of race, he said. It is a matter of grace." At the conclusion of his masterly presentation of the case of the Negro, Mr. Napier, who was a painter by the talented Negro artist, for which he had paid $5,000. It was the portrait. Other pictures he had bought of Mr. Tanner were referred to, and he urged all to visit the portion of the store which they were permanently displayed.

The musicians were Climbing Jacoo's Ladder. "In Bright Mansions Above" and "I Want to Walk" were the most effective probably never heard in the Wanmaker establishment before.

No rabid, sensational methods are resorted to, nor do administrative officials of the colored people ever give very fair consideration when it comes to a chance for a living. The colored people are doing what they want, and the colored people of the best little towns in Indiana to live in.

clinery, turning out all kinds of wooden products, such as furniture, cabinets, and furniture, to the company sends out to install their most delicate and expensive equipment when sold to customers. Mr. Allison has issued one of the finest and most nearly perfect models of incubator on the market. It is a round model, with wooden frame and metal inlay, in which there are absolutely no "cold corners." One of the chief advantages of this incubator is the accessibility of the incubator, which may be set at one or at different times. He obtained a patent, No. 211,911, after having spent fourteen months in perfect

ments to the layout, which begin in earnest

Dr. Booker T. Washington spee-
cified as never before.
It was a glorious meeting at Phila-
delia. It's a long cry from that city
to Muscogee, Okla., but the true-heart-
ed business folk will not worry.
When segregation is introduced in public places it is time the most indifferent citizen sits up and takes notice. Our government is expected to afford that much protection.
The genial Charles Banks, cashier of the Mound Bayou bank, Mound Bayou, Miss., was elected first vice president of the National Negro Business League. Mr. Banks has faithfully followed the fortunes of the organization.
The Knights of Pythias have been having things their own way in Baltimore this week. Perhaps after the white people who are interested in segn in have seen the fine looking set, they will change their
The Negro press is standing up pretty well for Governor Sulzer, of New York. We aren't in for condoning wrong, yet we hope the governor will manage to come out of his difficulty all right. This owing to his value to the race.
Indiana drew two nice offices at the National Negro Business League meeting in Philadelphia, last week. Ernest Tidrington, head of the Indiana Knights of Pythias, was made fifth vice president. James N. Shelton was made secretary of the Association of Undertakers. We are in it some, anyhow.
The next meeting of the National Negro Business League will be held at Muskegue, Okla. A side trip to the all-Negro town of Boley, Okla., will be a part of the program. This meeting may not have the Philadelphia ecat but it will be at the very heart of Negro enthusiasm for the Negro. A big, happy time is ahead.
The rich man's millions have not exempted Harry Thaw from punishment, as it is usually said. They might let him out; he has suffered about as much as men do on earth, if confinement means suffering. Besides, something is due him for standing up for his home, regardless of its quality Something is due Harry Thaw for standing up even for such a woman as Evelyn Thaw. It was his wife.
The Chinese and Mexicans do not seem to be prepared for a republican form of government. The Mexicans have never exhibited the degree of intelligence as a whole and sobriety of thought necessary for a republic. But they have had considerable practice, and by this time they should be good at that kind of government. The Chinese, owing to their vast country, territorially and in numbers, will struggle many years before that country as a whole will see the beauty of a republican form of government.
Some thoughtful observer said: "It is a great thing to have a talent for appreciation. He can do much good in the world who recognizes the good other people are doing and tells them of it." The world isn't built very much that way. If you have got a good thing you'd better kind a mention it your self. You know the old gag about why the hen's eggs are more valuable than duck eggs. The hen makes a fuss over tier eggs. The duck just waddles away saying nothing about it; and nobody else says anything about it.
One of our exchanges had the following to say of the new minister to Haiti:
"Mr. Smith, the minister appointed, will have to entertain. How will he do it? He certainly cannot do so and have a little table all to himself in a corner, while the colored statesmen partake at others. Haitians would hardly stand for that. Mr. Smith, we doubt not, will soon find out that while drawing that $10,000 as an American diplomat, he will have to fold up and lay aside the ideas and practices that he holds so dearly while in this beautiful land of the free, and home of the brave."
Well, a fellow could forget most anything for $10,000 per annum.
Jack Johnson has won the London public. Now if he will manage to hold it he can afford to lose all of those
thousands of dollars he has in bonds for his liberty when he was in this country. At a recent appearance he was received in great style by the Englishmen, who take no stock in our racial quarrels. A few dissenters were noted, who did not care anything about the American Negro. A few discordant notes will be heard, no matter who shows up. King George himself is not persona grata to every man of his subjects. President Woodrow Wilson is followed by secret service men, proof enough that he is not thought wholly free from danger. So, viewing it as the world goes, Jack is in right in London and perhaps in right in Europe generally.
ANOTHER MAYORALTY TICKET.
Another inducing looking mayoralty ticket in the field. The citizens' non-partisan movement is responsible for the new candidate. It was thought for a while that those displeased with the candidates of the two leading parties would swing around to Dr. Johnson, the Progressive candidate, but it is not to be. The doctor appears to be all right as candidates go, but he is a Progressive, and which means so very little that his chances for success have not looked bright. The Progressive party has no attractive qualities. Its members are simply Republicans and Democrats who fell out with their parties for various small reasons. Many of them have returned to their respective folds, leaving the Progressive party as it now appears well night helpless and useless. Under the circumstances those of the citizens movement thought it better to launch a new ticket in view of what they considered the machine candidates of the other two parties. As we see it the new movement will at least, do what it wants to do, that is stand for a candidate that is not allied with machines and pernicious interests as they are called.
THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE.
The greatest of all the annual sessions of the National Negro Business League closed last week in Philadelphia. The great personality of its president, Dr. Booker T. Washington, pervaded everywhere. His earnestness, his sincerity, as noted in his very excellent speech were as yeast to the occasion. Men were lifted up, feeling to exclaim with those of another day, "It is good to be here" and "Didn't our hearts burn within us?" Such is the impression gotten of the meeting hundreds of miles away. How it appeared to those on the scene will not easily submit to description.
The master of Tuskegee evidently has not waned in influence. Time and trials have added unto him the essentials to his further mastership. His magnetic ability has increased, that most potent quality of man and blessed when rightfully exerted. We have already given Dr. Washington's speech, also called attention to his grouping of racial data and facts for information, inspiration, incentive. The 5,000 and more that sat in Muscle Hall, Philadelphia were as one man in the admiration of the man with a message. The troublesome times of this day, political and civil disregard, doubtless added to the receptive mood of the great audience who faced Booker T. Washington as the Israelites faced Moses. They eagerly drank in his words hoping something of cheer, concession out of good. He pointed out good that was done, and the possible future good. He was optimistic, making it plain that the cloud was not without a silver lining. The old theory of "Let down your buckets where you are" was the meaning caught by the anxious throng.
The affiliated meetings also were of absorbing interest. The National Press Association has grown in importance, and as it should be. While this association has been beneficially active, it yet has vast opportunity to do much more than it has done under the circumstances. The object of the association in the main should be to map out a program of activities tending to the end of the enlargement of Negro liberty. A united press will not be worse than one not united. The association owes its existence largely to R. W. Thompson, the well-known Wash.-born correspondent. He launched it out of the office, and writing to his great love for the work of journalism. He was the fittest person to have brought the association into being. We are indeed sorry to know that there were those so thoughtless as to permit hi to resign.
The Bankers' Association has grown rapidly in recent years. New banks by Negroes are being organized wherever the conditions are favorable. Dr. W. R. Pettiford, of Birmingham, Ala., is the president of this valuable adjunct to the National Negro Business Association. His bank is one of the oldest and most noted institutions of the kind in the country. He is noted for his precaution and conservatism, the better qualifications for successful business. The Undertakers' Association is also an affiliated body. The association is great and useful. In every community of Negroes the Negro undertaker is there. He began early, consequently has a much better start than most of the other businesses in which Negroes now find themselves engaged. James N. Shelton, of Indianapolis, was made secretary of this body.

Pritz Very Active—Tickets on Sale at the Business Houses and by Players—1,000 Citizens to Act as Patrons—American Giants Win Two Games
For the first time in the history of Chicago, the people of this city will see a man in uniform and policemen. Through the efforts of Officer J. H. Price, this will be brought about, September 11, at Comiskey's park. The police officer, Lewis, the "expert press agent," and he was selected as manager. He visited Chief of Police John H. McWeeney, presiding over the excused on September 11 to play a game of ball against Fire Company No. 21, the finest and bravest company in Chicago, and sent the following consented and sent the following letter: Cary B. Lewis, South Park avenue, City. Dear Sir, In answer to yours of the 21st, relative to a proposed baseball game between the firemen and policemen on September 11 for the best park hospital, be inform to you that I have excused from duty on that date the officiating men have given as participants. Yours truly.
JOHN McWEENEY,
General Superintendent
The fire marshal sent a similar letter to Mr. Lewis, Mr. Charles A. Comiskey having sent a letter stating that he was more than pleased to donate the park for the game on that day, Mr. Price proclaimed. The company and succeeded in getting a

Mr. Schorling, who has a big heart and is owner of the American Giants' park, gave the policemen and firemen his park every day. Every day the can be seen at the park, under the tutorage of expert ball players, captain Friar and Captain Beiru, Benjamin Franklin read the rhyme. There will be a band of music to play and many other features.
City Office to Be Present.
Major Hinson Hinson, Chief of Police McWeeny, the Fire Marshal, Governor Dunne, ex-Governor Deneen, Senator Edward Wilson, state attorney Judge Robert McCurdy, Colonel John R. Marshall, Major R. R. Jackson, Charles Merriam, ex-Governor occupy oxyes, Charles A. Compton, the Old Roman, and the greatest baseball magnate the world ever seen, will catch the first. It must be understood that the contestants are now firemen and policemen, they were at one time crack professional baseball players, fans, one of the most hotly contested games of the season. It is the final game and the most expensive trophy in the form of a gold and silver loving cup. An added feature with the pleasure of the C. A. brass band, their first appearance in public. Mr. Joe Jordan has drilled them to a high efficiency and other musical organization, favorably with other musical organizations.
To give some idea of the magnitude of
citizenship, we have expressed their willingness
to participate.
It is gratifying to know that the younger set too are interested as twenty-five of the most popular misses of the band, and sell the souvenir programs. Taking all in all, it will be one of the most tupidous social outings ever given in the big city of Chicago. "Tube" Foster will play the bass and plate. Dr. Harry Garmes the basses.
Americans Win.
"Rube" Foster must be given credit for having brains and being the best base-ball manager in the country. He is also a great pitcher, and the material. Even Charles A. Comiskey does not eclipse him in this direction. Last week he found a younger name, Watt. He was a pitcher who was seen at the park for several weeks. He allowed only one hit in eight innings. The fans were wild and cheered him to win. He was another pitcher, but he was lifeless and wild, and enabled the opponents, the Spaldings, to bring in the only run. An opponent a good game, but was miserably supported. Spar, the short stop, was rank.

St. Louis Giants Here Sunday and Monday
There is expected to be standing room only at the American Giants' baseball park on Sunday and Monday, when the St. Louis Giants. So great are the number of rosters for the St. Louis Giants that Mr. Foster has, that of the grand stand for the St. Louis fans. Last year when the St. Louis team was here, it seemed that nearly every Missouri was here. They bought pennants and were enthusiastic all through the game. The St. Louis team comes well seasoned as ball players, having rounded out one of the best teams in the league. It is the opinion of many that the St. Louis team will win both games, but Mr. Foster believes differently. Quite a deal of money will be spent on both teams. Box seats are now on sale.
The Foster Banquet
There is some talk among the fans that Mr. Andrew ("Rube") Foster should be given a banquet at the end of the season, given the baseball field has done more to uphold baseball sport among the colored people of this country than the Foster team. For the baseball love beast should be a fitting climax to end the baseball season. The Freeman believes that the Foster team is appropriate but fitting and deserving to the one who put baseball on the map in the Windy City. Speaking of the team, he decried said, "I believe that hundreds of fans would be pleased to sit down to a table with Mr. Foster and tender him the honor, due him, due him." He well-known fan said, "Count me to one be present whenever it comes off. I am a Foster fan from A to Z, and I am a surgeon of the team, was enthusiastic over the matter, and said: "I am ready at a moment's notice. Mr. McGowan, the manager of the Baseball and Mr. Wm. Adams, the tailor, and Editor Abbott, of the Defender, and Attorney B. F. Moseley stated that they wished to occupy the first table. Grace Presbyterian team has won the honor of being the best team in the Presbyterian day morning at Grace Presbyterian Sunday school.
The Defenders, under Frank Young, are still winning from their opponents.
The Emergencies, under the captaincy of Mr. Julius Avendolph, expect to play the doctors and dentists another game before the closest encounter.

Captain Thomas is the senior captain of the Eighth regiment I. N. G., who will make his home in the island of Cuba in the war with Spain. He is now on the retired list and from time to time will make his home in Des Moines, Iowa, with headquarters at 105 Park street.

T. L. P. H. Davis, the noted dramatic baritone singer, is filling a week's engagement at the Garden theater, a first-class playhouse in a neighborhood composed of the best class of white people. Mr. Davis is rendering only classic selections from the best operas of the day and is receiving rounds of applause each

32 YEARS!
Of Unbroken Progress
IS THE RECORD MADE BY THE
National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America.
This order was organized in 1882 by J. E. Bush and C. W. Keatts, two Negroes, and has long since passed the experimental stage.
Half Million Dollars Paid to Widows and Ornhans
The National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America conducts Disability, Endowment and Burial Departments, and through these departments has paid to widows and orphans and beneficiaries of deceased members the enormous sum of a Half Million Dollars.
Substantial Proof of Reliability
Failures and frauds have been so numerous in organizations of this character that the public is naturally skeptical. We cite you the following evidences of our reliability, and same may be verified by spending a little time investigating:
The order is now erecting a National Temple Building in Little Rock, Ark., at a cost of $60,000, the same being erected out of the order's surplus funds, and no extra building tax or assessment has been levied upon the members. This has never been heard of in the history of fraternal orders. This order has never levied an extra tax upon its members to pay off any kind of obligation, and not a single instance can be cited during thirty-two years, where the order has failed to meet promptly its just obligations to the people. In our Endowment department, the ninety-day waiver, which appears in most certificates, has never been taken advantage of, because the order has always had sufficient funds to meet its claims whenever proof of death is made. Our Endowment department is national and has been inspected from time to time by various insurance commissioners. The order has come out of each inspection with flying colors. As we grow older, instead of decreasing, our Endowment surplus is growing, as the following will show:
A Lesson in Figures
Rates per Year and Benefits Paid.
Men's Department, $11.75 per year; endowment, $200; sick benefits, $3 per week; burial, $50. Women's Department, $8.75 per year; endowment, $300; sick benefits, $2 per week; burial, $50. Children's Department, $1.85 per year; endowment, $50; sick benefits, $1 per week; burial, $20.
The above rates include all taxes, local lodge, state and Supreme Grand Lodges. The endowment policies of $300 are graded and payable as follows: Should death occur during the first twelve calendar months, $100; after the first twenty four calendar months, $200; after the first thirty-six calendar months, $300.
Local Lodge Divisions
The order operates in four divisions, and charter fees for organizing new lodges are as follows:
Temples for adult males, cost of charter, $15; Chambers for adult femalemates, cost of charter; Tailaces for children, cost of charter, $5; Uniform Rank, cost of charter, $5.
Opportunities for Organizers
The order is now conducting a nation-wide campaign for members and is allowing organizers the most liberal contract ever given by any fraternal order in the world. During the past twenty-four months we have organized 600 new lodges. Some organizers have earned as high as $200 per month. We allow organizers, under extension plan, to set up local lodges for the price of the charter fee. For instance, we would have the benefit of sixty men at $2 each; that would amount to $120. His charter would cost $15, leaving him a net profit of $105. We are anxious to engage active young men and women in all parts of the United States to organize lodges. Especially are we anxious to secure organizers in Illinois, Indiana, Virginia and West Virginia, Maryland, North and South Carolina, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, New York and Kansas. This offer will not remain open indefinitely, and you had better write today for terms.

SEEING A GREAT SHOW.
The Wallace-Hagenbeck Aggregation
—The Ins and Outs of a Tented
City.
(By Billy Lewis.)
It is not an easy job to see a big circus or, do a big circus from a new viewpoint. No form of amusement is so easy to see, and this, consequently they have laid bare every detail to the public time and time again. It is no less interesting to the big boys and little boys, the girls and women. Very few people are opposed to it. Even those great flashing, flaming bills, data about and forth, look good. The descriptions can't be made to high-sounding—the highest sounding the better it is like a sound of its own. One gets that mardi-gras feeling, giving over to the free and careless side of nature. Bohemia is in every conformity to society, and perfectly at times for the good of the spiritual being. The circus is a great tonic; it is suggested out of the other values easily seen by all. Zoology, history, art, ethnology, commerce, civil government, domestic economy, military discipline and then some, are the values
Feeding the Multitude.
Feeding has always been a most intereating theme to me—how great crowds and starved more than once with Napoleon's soldiers at Moselow—at the retreat. Of course the showmen have no need to eat, but the work is in itself a department and well no more important department than the business. Men must be fed, and on time. It is of great importance to the men so to have the men well fed on scheduled time as it is to the men themselves.
The Wallace-Lindenbeck is an island in the other greater seas. The meat is fresh and savory, and the other food is good and wholesome. From all appearances the men set all the tables, the two twenty cooks and helpers, all of whom are the machinery of a clock—he fit in well; now just barely over when I reached the scene of cooking, my first stopping place. I have the utensils, the kitchen, the oven, the dining table, the ten men were peeling potatoes. A few of them did not care how much of the potato they were eating, but the sistani cooks don't get fancy prices, so it is all right. Then again this class don't stick long enough to peel the potato to peel the potato. The sisters don't learn that one baker was making up a batch of fruit for pies—just twenty-four gallon cans used and plenty of it. The batch looked pretty appetizing. Another baker was on crusts. He pans them to the fire of him, and forth. Other culinary mysteries were brewing—in the kitchen all under the watchful eye of his good and prompt conduct.
Getting Ready for the Parade.
A great show reminds one somewhat of the animals are coming and going like as many bees.
in the way of one another. But if the thing is studied a bit, it will be seen that these men have special duties, and which are related to special times in the interest of harmony. The master showman sees it as a whole. The department bosses so there is but little friction, if any at all, Solomon's temple went up without the sound of hammers. It is nearly so here, the men are not so much interested, one will think. The tents are up, excepting the big top. Wagons are being washed, harness is being whitened or oiled, the men are being in general are being cleaned and aired. Mr. Ben Wallace is said to be a horse-sleef expert. This accounts for his stables being so well maintained. The man in Peru, Peru, before he started out on his career as a showman. The stable men are preparing their charges. The horses are washed, harness is being whitened, perhaps Ivory soap altogether. I thought of the great advertisement the Ivory soap people were getting. This couple came to say, "They wouldn't have got them so clean, I know."
If it hadn't been for Sapolio "" the grossman used naphtha washing powder, also "Gold Dust Twins." They were so careful that they seemed to care more for them than they did for themselves. They were in love with their art. And you know that they were so careful.
Some Sights En Route.
While touring the tents many worthy sights were presented. I was unfortunate in not getting a look at the ladies' dresses, but were here to see a course a lookin' out of the question. However, I saw about half of the lower one, and a couple of others come near a spot where the tent lifted up from the ground about two and a half feet. That pair of extremities could as well be seen in the dresses anyone else. You know they are still looking for de Medical's missing arm. I am a patient, and I have been world the remainder of my days trying to fashion the face that went with those legs. The men were bathing, some washing in their others were dressed in numbered shirts and were reading letters, books or papers. They were not so particular about their many forms—the flags of their curtains were up. The ladies were in their near. These were studying English. The older ones were instructing the younger ones how to dress and had slates and books. They seemed happy and contented, preferring to be by themselves. Some philosophy of segregation was taught to the older and other nationalities by us colored folks. We too often are anxious to be in evidence and too often unfit for the job being done, but I am fair enough to say that we help it along. We are not "stuck on ourselves" as we shall be under the circumstances.
Menagerie Shot to Pieces.
On entering the menagerie one is not struck by the great loss sustained by the Wallace-Hagenbeck shows by the flood of elephants. And what's a show without elephants? Yet the show has done great business this season. However, the great loss of elephants has been a major concern. The show lost four tigers and six lions, the most expensive animals of the menagerie, including the elephants. The loss in elephants has been a major concern. The manager said that the company has ordered twenty more elephants from Europe, also a number of lions and tigers. Some of these will be sold, but in the main the company will continue to manage the menagerie.
I talked with Mr Emile Schwyer, manager of the elephant department, who said that he can handle the elephants that were saved during the flood on his back to a place of safety. One could hardly be surprised by the great loss of truth, consequently I believed him. He said that he carried three or four tigers in the same way, but the place of landing was so weak that it gave way, and he was unable to walk.
The three lions on hand are splendid looking fellows, savanna appearing enough to others, but doble in the hands of the lion, the one reminded me of Lord Byron's Prisoner of Chilton—pacing his round sounds as if he was one of his warriors. He was one of the same description. He was calm and tractable enough, but there was a difference in his rank of fair Here dividens—thinking of some lost desire. The lion is the desert's king; through his domain so wide his swiftly and royally this night he rides. By the sedge brink, where the wild herds trink, close crouches the gri miel; the trout comes above whispers with every leaf. At evening, on the Table Mount, when you can see no more The changeful play of signals gay; when the lion is the tower above With lion fire; when the Caffre wends home through the lone karoo; When the bosshok in the thicket sleeps,
P. G. Lowery and Bunch.
As it concerns most of the readers of the Freeman, P. G. Lowery and his bunch is the side of it. Of course, the men are all men—men women. Lowery is the band director, this fact alone puts him into the front. But he is more than a band below who has made scores of friends in the cities which the show visits yearly. He is a cornetist, virtuoso at sat. He is a drummer, expresses. Many think it is the very best of the "wanderings musicians." But of course, they are all friends of the Freeman; it is best for us to say—better.
The Vaudeville.
Lowery is also noted for his good vaudeville shows. Last Monday the audience went to the performances the wiki is doing at the theater—the performers were just their plain faces. And they went big. The two end men, Edward Thompson and Johnny Depp, are the most abundant of fun. They are good performers, and who are seen in vaudeville after the closing of the

He plays the role of a boy he gets em to going. He wins by his eccentric movements and dancing. Junk-Edwards sings "Floating Down the River," Wonderful. He sings "The Great Way." He pleases his up

The Side Show in General.
The side show carries, as usual, freaks, curiosities, strong men, experts of various fields, and people who are not interested in the rear attractions, that is, the men were. The Davis family, colored or white, came to town. I said the last time I mentioned that at the rate they are going they will not be white until 1940—maybe later in the future, but white not coming back. The little girl is features. Mr. Lowry says she's very bright. It's too bad that she's so mixed. But she didn't seem to mind it a little. She just chirped as cheerfully as a cricket.
Notes of the Show
---
H. A. Morgan, one of the concession men who was formerly associated with the team, said he was close of the tent season, says that he will be heard from this season, backing some colored show. He is not at liberty to give his name to the team. Efried C. Kornberger of the Freeman, was an additional member of the band during the parade. He wanted to do the town from the top of a show wagon. He was required to put on a regulation dress and a hat. Friends did not know him. Came near Elwood Knox in the maze or not. He enjoyed his trip hugely.
U. S. Thompson (Slow Kid) pulled off a surprise. He married the pretty Leetah Rogers a few days ago. The former Patrons of the Knox Museum and Patrons at the Crown Garden, Indianapolis will remember her as the lady who danced with a lighted lamp on her head. Congratulations, old boy; you too, old

CIRCUS TENT WRECKED.
$15,000 Damage Caused—Man Hurt
and Two Animals Killed.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind.—During a terrific wind and rain storm, and just after three thousand people on Friday, August 22, the big tent blew down, injuring one show man and causing a loss of life. The circus, of Peru, is ill-equipped, of Peru, Ind. bass player in the band, whose left leg was broken as he was crawling from under the tent. The show man, who was off and the circus men spent the night in getting the show train made up for Bedford, where the circus was scheduled. The best man, who was ruined canvas, about $8,000 worth being twisted and torn until it is practically useless. When the main tent fell, the center pole threw the canvas, for the canvas into shreds. Animal wagons were overturned, coo koo caked and the canvas into shreds. The animals were injured, a deer and a llama, of which suffered a broken leg. They were both shot and their bodies were destroyed. The apparatus in the big tent damaged. The animals were extricated from the canvas and meat of the employees their harmed. Most of the employees at supper, but none was injured when the cook tents blew over, although dishes and food were in the circus, of the showmen lost their evening meal.

The New Theater Problem.
The New Avenue theater, Thirdly-first street and Indiana avenue, will open its first floor in the vaudeville and moving picture house. In its future problem is involved the racial interests of a sectional community. And whether the interference be in motion or not, the black quest is in order that the patronage of the Avenue will not be preferential. I am advising the colored people of the second floor to make a clear demonstration by turning out in large numbers on the opening night, in order that all houses be set aside. The Grand theater is a splendid example of how the two races peacefully meet and the irony of the different States also the same good faith of cordial propriety. Two great singers, Downs and Gomez, both record at this house. The Lin-
Foster's Colored Photo Plays.
So great were the crowds that thronged to see "The Railroad Porters" pictures of the St. Louis St. Louis States and the Pekin, they were immediately ordered to the Grand. I have not noticed that pictures from New York, introspectively, were shown in scenes of a white story, seen at the Phoenix, drew heavily, and while it is a good thing that the pictures were same among the whites, there is nothing like the gemine, all-colored pictures produced by the Foster Company, and the pictures will be for colored actors and picture houses. While it is a nice thing for white actors to be blackface white actors, it will be the duty of all the race to support the Foster movement. I think Mr. Foster can be found Hot's Hotel Brunswick, 3041 State Street.
Fenton Johnson Day at Olivet
The Standard Literary Society of the Olivet Baptist church honored J. *Conlon* the author of the memoir for the good of his book of poems entitled "A Little Dreaming." In justice he is a genuine poet, but of the lighter school, and a literary scholar. He was intrigued by the works of other ceremonies. eH reads like poets do, but his Negro and Yeddish dialect were good. He was a great teacher.

PROTECTING THE NAME OF WHITMAN.
There are only three original Whitman books: Essie anderta, Adele Whitman anderta, and She has been in the family from infancy, we might say. Caddie Whitman, our own mother, and our worker, and it is useless to enumerate the homeless, motherless and fatherless boys and girls she has benefited from, and they desired to call themselves Whitman, and they denied them by our mother as long as they proved themselves worthy.
Mattie Dorsey was never adopted into the Whitman family and has no legal right to be a Whitman. But in the Southland especially the name of Whitman is a keynote to success. Whitman is a person who pears that she cannot make and sustain a reputation in her own name, depends on the name of Whitman which she has been warned several times to drop. Prof. E. Mikell extends the Whitman Sisters.
A most pleasant surprise was given the Whitman Sisters by Prof. Eugene Mikell, formerly leader of the Globe band of thirty-three Jacksonville, Fla., and his band of thirty-three Jacksonville, Fla., a summer home of the stars in Asbury Park was filled with beautiful strains of music that what was coming off. Prof. Mikell earned a credit as a director and it is hard to compete with his band, known as Jenny, who are now coming all of the leading cities in the country and the special trip he made to give the

BY HAROLD C. MCGATH
Only Prejudiced Fight Fans Adhere to Theory That They Are "Yellow."
There is a certain class of boxing fans who believe in claiming that every NEO boxer is "yellow." The mountaintime fanatics rantacks about the fact that they are as soon as they enter a ring. Mr. Knocker delights in telling his friend that he will lay down his hat is hit hard.
down at the entrance. Negro is not a self-confidence as the average white man, but the reason is not because he is lacking in moral courage, but it is the effects of being subjected to the wil of the white man. Negro boxes, as a class, are every bit as same as the white boxers. Can you name any six white boxers who were poor courageous and Dexin, Joe Gans, Joe Woott, Peter Jackson, and Jack Johnson?
Sam, unfond is still a great fighter, while jamsons ring ability still is not now is very well known, and jamsons is such a unfond weight that there is not a white heavy-weight in the world who will consent to him. Perhaps they are afraid Sam
Negroes Make Good Soldiers.
There are fifty white boxers for every Negro in the ring and yet the black natives have won many championships, Mr. Knocker is prejudiced against Negroes and so cannot fight critically but can defend critic will admit that Negroes are natural-born b fight forces. Their ancestors had to battle in the forests of Africa against wild beasts, and this instinct to fight and fight hard is one of the chief characteristics of the
The Negro soldiers have been of great assistance to Uncle Sam. They did noble work in the civil war they fought side by side, and they fought side by side in important battles of that bloody conflict and willingly gave their lives on the field of combat that the Union might take their pieces in the ranks gladly laced under the warm Southern sun in the traches. In all war the Negro troops all covered themselves with glory. The galant force of the Negro troops at San Juan Hill will not soon be forgotten. If those troops were "yellow" it is more assured that there are not more of that type.
Dixon Was Great Fighter.
Dixon was one of the greatest, if not the greatest, featherweight the world was ever known. He was a remarkable athlete. We hate to think of what Dixon would be able to do to some of the young men who earn a career in boxing. He was such a "yellow" fighter that he would probably stop fighting in three or four rounds. The reason, however, would be because he was a very well-rounded man in a semi-conscious condition.
There is hardly any need to discuss Joe Woolcott. Joseph was so far lacking in courage that he did not think anything of knocking out heavyweight. He was also not a better weight fighter. The Giant Killer was one of the wonders of the ring. He made a fortune in his day, but it lost it. He is now revered.
...
Few lightweights had anything on Joe Gans. He was a wonderful performer. He showed the kind of strength he was known for, battling at goldfield, New, in September, 1968. Gans and Nelson struggled for forty-two rounds. Joe finally wonning on his foot, but he was not a winner. Son he was but a more shell of his former self. He had fallen a victim of the direbred disease of tuberculosis and died a few years later, after a game battle with
Jackson Was Ring Wizard.
Peter Jackson was a fighter of the old school. He was perhaps the most skillful Australian that ever invaded this country. He knew the boxing game recalls him to see in mini action. He would rather have died in the ring than have quit to an opponent, he would bow many times to today for his death to defeat. We believe that they could be counted on the fingers of a one-armed man who had lost three of his fingers while playing with buzz saw.
Sam Lamford is the greatest heavyweight boxer and there is more than one individual who believes Sam would be able to defeat the burly Galveston black. Sam will fight any heavyweight in the ring. He has since started boxing. If he had not done so, he would have been unable to have secured matches. Sam is the greatest of his weight that the ring has ever known.
The knockers claim that Jack Johnson is a natural-born coward and a quitter. Perhaps that is the reason why he has been able to hold the heavyweight title in Australia and burns in Australia on December 26, 1908. Johnson is sue ha du baf fighter and such a quitter that in over four years there has been a white boxer who would have won the title, a chance of defeating the champion. The leading Negro boxers will lay down about as quickly as Ishman will make a long detour in order to win. Jack Coway in the Boston American.

SEND NAME AND ADDRESS TODAY—YOU CAN HAVE IT FREE AND BE STRONG AND VIGOROUS.
We have in our possession a prescription for nervous debility, lack of vigor, weakness, manhood, failing memory and lame muscles, or the follies of youth, that has caused so many worn and nervous men to suffer, and that additional help or medicine—that we think every man who wishes to regain his strength, and to be quietly, should have a copy. So we have determined to send a copy of the prescription, charge, in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write it for us.
This prescription comes from a physician who has made a special study of men, and we are convinced it is the appropriate combination for the cure of nervous debility and vigor failure ever put to use.
we think we owe it to our fellow man to us. We have confidence, so that any man anywhere who we trust is accompanied with repeated failures may stop himself with harmful patient medical care. We remedy ever devised, and so cure him himself. We remedy ever devised, and so cure him himself. Just drop us a line like this: Remedy Co., $331. Luck Building Co., $331.

Live News of Live Newspaper Workers Compiled by the National Negro Press Association.
Journal of the first class are putting up the bars against anonymous correspondents, whose matter is sent only for the purpose of grinding a personal axe. It is necessary then on account of these fellows. The waste-basket is the proper receptacle for their misleading and villainous effusions.
State press associations are being organized in a number of localities. A fine idea! Provision for their formation generally will be made at the Philadelphia convention, August 18 and 19.
The N. N. P. A. has the heartiest endorsement of Dr. Booker T. Washington. The press of the race has no better friend. The resourceful builder of Tuskegee Institute, the owner of the National Negro Business League.
Lee L. Brown, editor of the Louisville News, is making a fine race for the Kentucky legislature.
The Odd Fellows' Journal may introduce general news features, if the subcommittee of management so orients. Washburn will have to have an additional medium through which their activities may be recorded.
Now that R. W. Thompson has definitively announced that he will not accept a reelection as president of the N. N. P. A., it is expected that the friends of several members of the Odd Fellows canvas in behalf of their favorites. There is quite a sentiment for the single term system that has worked so well in the past. It is also the case that so many able men to be recognized, it might be well to pass the honors around with frequency and dispatch. If the basic policy of the association is preserved, it will be widely who may happen to occupy the chair.
Henry Allen Boyer is to address the State B. Y. P. U. in Pouidikkeepsi, N. N. next week, after which he will visit New York City, look over the field at Philadelphia, and confer with President Thompson. He will also meet the busiest men in the country, but covers his ground in a masterly fashion.
citation, will shortly place before the people a comprehensive Negro Press Directory, upon which he has put a great deal of effort to publish newspapers more than $30 Negro newspapers, besides other information highly valuable to the race papers.
It is suggested by President Thompson that the publishers arrange to bring or send copies of their papers to the Philadelphia convention August 18 and have have copies sent to the press for the benefit of the craft and for the edification of the business league convention, which follows immediately.
Rev. L. G. J. Gordan, recently married to Mrs. M. J. Marquess, of Helena, Ark, was the first treasurer of the N. N. P. A., and will assist in the work of entertainment the newspaper men who will come to Philadelphia in August. Dr. Jordan is corresponding secretary of the Baptist Foreign Mission Board and is doing a phenomenal work toward bringing Africa for the Lord. He is editor of the Missionary Herald.
The dismissal of W. L. Porter as assistant recording secretary and member of the executive committee of the N. N. P. A. is sustained by the officiar of the N. N. P. A. for its pertinence asks: "How long would a member of President Wilson's cabinet remain in office after attacking the Wilson administration, even as a premium should be placed upon loyalty." Ira T. Branty, secretary of the A. M. E. Sunday School Union, has been named as the successor to W. L. Porter as one of Tennessee's members of the executive committee of the head of one of the race's finest printing plants at Nashville, Teen, and he has shown the B. A. M. E. church a few interesting things about how to make a first-class publishing enterprise pay. N. C. Hawkins is proprietor and manager of the Dunbar News Agency at Sekitan, Ohio, handling a large line of Negro magazines and dailies and magazines of the other race.
