Special. identified in every good work that tended toward the elevation of his people and community and agile the people of New York, and he was another one who was dear to all classes of men. He work speaks for itself, and the history of his life need not be written for the world to know that he has lived and worked from a few scattered peoples to a large and powerful membership of $3000; the many civic imprints he made and stood out in protest by him; the many untortunate for whom he has interceded and plead and in many instances used his own means to secure justice and more power in the public life as a written history of his character. Indeed it has been said of him that he has accomplished his purpose; executive offices of the state and plead for a whole day and would not relinquish his position. In accomplished his purpose. Beside this he accomplished many persons entering into a christian Thousands were baptized by him into the church. He has served his denomination for a number of years in many capacities having been a member of Kentucky Baptists for more than one term, a trustee of the State University at the time of his death and actively connected with the Ministers' and Deacons' churches. The funeral services were held in the auditorium of the Lampton Street Baptist church and the eulogy was delivered by Rev. J. K. Polk of Midway, Ky. The On entering the building we first come to the mechanical drawing and wood-work departments, presiding over the work. Here we see first drawings of all kinds executed by the young men of all classes of the school with great accurateness and neatness. We see drawings for furniture, for praises from a great number of the visitors were the globe valve by Kenneth Baker and architectural drawings by me. But time and space will not allow us to enter into a detailed description of the exhibit.

The most attention was given to table delicacies that were on exhibit. Here one might observe pies, canned fruits, beads, gelatines and cakes. The most attention was given to the arranged table following the yellow and green color scheme. What we need, some of the boys have said, is good cooks and fewer surfactettes. We think that the arrangements are in a position to supply this demand. Our usher then escorts us into the sew- ing department where, we see all kinds of sewing too much for a man to undertake to tell about, for we know perhaps a little bit of what I know, for we know perhaps a little bit of what I know I had not order, for fear I might make a mistake. From the sewing books admitted to exhibit by the members of the college, we see that the department broidery and dress and suits shown by the senior class the exhibit was a thing of grander and beauty. Our department has a particular interest and this was the class quilt, made by the members of the gradual background and their name in black and other particular background and background and patched some with yellow background and their name in black and other particular background and very pretty quilt and was the object of many pleasant comments by the many visitors.

Its properties are so remarkable that not only does it grow hair, but also improves the quality of existing hair, if it is gray or fading it will frequently restore it to its natural color within two or three months. No stronger argument can be used in its favor, than people who have tried almost every known thing for promoting hair growth, such as tonics, pomades, etc., with no tangible results, have found that "Gloss-O" only, will do what other things are said to do—grow hair. Since its discovery, a little over four years ago, it has taken the world by storm, and thousands of men and women are now living proofs of its efficacy.

We have no faith in a fellow who denounces a certain man as an "undeakable man, who next night sees him he is "cheek-by-jowl" with that same "soundrel." A well-intentioned leader should not be blamed for the mis-conduct of hangers-on, who insist that they are "friends," and trade upon their alleged influence with him. If there is to be a permanent colorific enterpriseing Negro to capitalize it. If a bad situation must exist, the wise man makes the most he can out of it.

In declaring the New York Hans Schmidt the "greatest liar of the age," he risked doing rank injustice to some very capable talent around Washington and professional jealously among colored Ananias in various sections of the country. Considering the stellar part played by General U. S. Grant in pushing a war that led to the freedom of the United States, the greatest military genius are passed over all too lightly by the race that owes him so great debt of gratitude.

He was his success, owing to a strong resonant voice and imposing stage presence, and he foot to have him named as one of the reading clerks of the next Republican National Convention. Just the tickt! "Phil" can deliver the goods. People who parade their necessities and are in charge of these items can conceal them, and givers who parade their charity are seldom as singular. There are occasions, therefore, when the "press agent" is out of place. "Phil" is the "real" agent, which essayed to start at Washington, failed to materialize. There was no demand for on-site press coverage, and jolleshers who came into the "scheme." The biggest fool is he who thinks he has all the other folks fooled.

It was completed and the N. C. Mutual and Provident, for its demonstration of solidity in time of stress, is stronger than ever in the confidence of the people. It has the brand of grit that wins.

JUNE 13, 1914 MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION The Italian who stole out Oma Lisa from the art gallery of Paris, France, says that he did it because it was taken from his country years ago. Is he a good patriot? Mayor Bell intimates that the saloons just broke out on Memorial Day all at once. Naturally got bad owing to the day and to the big event. Well, we guess we'll have to take his word for it. Having plenty rain which insures us the better things of the garden—green corn, melons, sweet potatoes and the rest of the berries. The most pessimistic ought to conclude that life is worth living right along through here. They tell the mayor that he will be restored to favor if he will punish the Memorial Day saloon offenders. He would have as much trouble in doing so as "Bring me the stone that David slew Gollath with," the new song. The preaching brethren insist that Mr. Bell fell off his horse that day, the day of the big show, the automobile race. Perhaps it would be just as well for the ministers to tell him to "go in peace, and sin no more." The colored people of Louisville, Ky., are fighting the segregation business. It is right because the thing itself is a civil iniquity. But they had better make it a two-eided sword afair. They should be not without that such things are not without reason. We do not insist that any reason is justifiable, but it is an excuse. Reduce the possibility of the excuse and such things will be fought down with greater success. When white men are unanimously against us we had best do some retrospection. Former President William H. Taft was in the city a short while this week. He was on his way to New Harmony, Ind., where he attended the centennial celebration of that community in company with former Vice President Charles W. Fairbanks. He made an interesting speech, showing that he was well acquainted with the history of that community of people whose influence for good is wide. The effort of a pleasant stay in Indianapolis, although brief, he said that he was in love with his work as professor of law at Yale. He said that he had to study hard to keep in front of the boys. We imagine a chorus of amens from the pedagogical fraternity generally. When referring to ex-Congressman Geo, W. Murray, last week, we said that he was one of the only two living Negroes that had been members of the national legislature. It was a mistake. Smalls, Miller, Lynch, Cheat ham, White and O'Hara are all living. And if they are as hardy, healthy apearing as Mr. Murray, they have yet a considerable lease on life. Mr. Murray is a fine specimen of the pure Negro, "black, but comely." He stands about six feet and straight as an Indian. He has reached his three score point in his years, slightly. He is of good speech, emphatic and enthused with his subject. A light smile lights up his face at frequent intervals, lending a grace and charm to his conversation. As a whole he is a blend of the older Negro and the new, making for a very interesting study. We say again that if the Mexican factions are earnestly interested in the best for their country they will let the Niagara Peace Conference decide for them. It is not ours to dictate to them, nor our country. But they profess to be patriots, all of them. Humanity declares against men who would see their comrades butchered to advance their interests, personally. President Wilson takes a broad humane view of the situation, being interested in that country's welfare and the peace of the occident where our country is of such large size that it be it Mr. Wilson or any one else, we think, feels a sense of responsibility for the peace of the two continents. In fact, the true patriot of the United States feels very much the same way, whether he is obscure or moves in the greater circles of men. We are proud of our country's pre-eminence and its somewhat guardianship of the western hemisphere. It makes for peculiar interest in all the quarrels and wrangles of the sister nations. We hold that it is disinterested further than the evolving of the best for the particular nations and for the nations as a whole. The sweet girl graduate and the interesting boy will now have opportunity to do real life after having done the school rooms. Of course some will keep right on, going to higher institutions, taking on more knowledge. The greater number, however, have quit the schools for good. One students to think of when they are bumping their knees when they are bumping the bumps of life. For after all life is most nearly that. There are long intervals between, sometimes, true enough, but the bumps are scheduled, and in due time, will meet the "can- didates" for life's experiences most "cheerfully." Perhaps it is not well to spread gloomy discouragement before those who are walking anew. And yet it is equally wrong to insist that life is rosette hued from beginning to end. Some philosopher advanced the idea that it would be well to suffer a little earache, but not a whole body, so as to be prepared for those supreme moments when pain and trouble descend as an avalanche. Others say never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. This is that other extreme. We should be prepared, forewarned, to some extent for our probable future. Many of our own race will, with regrets, read of the retiring of Miss Nebraska Cropsey as one of the management of the public schools of Indianapolis. The colored pupils of our schools, as the whites ones, are scattered all over this country; they are also in foreign lands. Most of them coming to the schools as little tots, found Miss Cropsey, and when they were ushered into the great outer life they left her there. Their children and children's children had a similar experience. We learned to think of her as fixed, an unmovable part of the system as the school houses are. And as Tennyson's Brook, some might come and some might go, but she went on forever. Time waits for no man; but it seemed to wait for her, to minister especially unto her, persevering her, prolonging her life that the work be done that she was so well prepared to do. The citizens of Indianapolis owe much to her for tireless effort in making the schools of this city of the best. Other cities and countries owe much to her. Their representatives pilgrimaged here to set at the feet of Gamaliel, as it were. They returned to their homes, and in a manner, blessed in that they came here. WASTED EFFORTS. In his address to the graduating class of Columbia university President Nicholas Murray Butler said: "Probably the greatest waste recorded anywhere in human history is that which results from the attempt to do over again that which has once been done and found disappointing or harmful. If the study of history were more real and more vital than it is ordinarily made, and if it showed ideas, tendencies, and institutions in their unfolding and orderly development, and if the lessons of history so studied were really learned and harkened to, the world would be saved an almost infinite amount of loss, of suffering, and of discouragement." We might apply the above to ex- Congressman Murray, who in his scheme of Negro race redemption plan, holds that the past effort was all wrong. He is satisfied that no satisfactory condition can arise from the false premises. He says that we are through with legal, physical and per-haps intellectual slavery, but spiritual slavery remains. He would throw down our teaching and per-haps the lines of the spirit. He would substitute new ideas, theorems or what not, in the demonstration of the wasted past. He would remake us—destroy and build anew from foundation to turret stone. Yes, he has something to offer, but he will have to accept some compromises. The point, however, was in the elicitation of wasted effort. THE NEW WAY OF MAKING PROGRESS. Ex-Congressman Geo. W. Murray spoke at the Y. M. C. A. Monday and Wednesday evenings of this week. He i sinterested in the uplift of his people, and in the effort he has studied the race question from every viewpoint. He has it that he has made some discoveries, or, at least, found the remedy for correcting some ill endured. He contends that the race is yet enslaved, spiritually enslaved, and that until the new enamulation comes headway will not be rapid, if at all. However, this is an old truth, or rather an old assertion, but which fits well in what Mr. Murray would have it, the "new philosophy." He would have the race strive for Negro ideals, cherish them, rather than the ideals of the white man. This would be retroactive, so to speak, influencing the whole race in the right direction, he maintains. In his scheme of reformation the speaker hopes to destroy the ideals set up by physical slavery before making the effort to take on the latter-day civilization at its fullest. He calls this the destructive phase. He says that the training suits the slave period must be eliminated. It is not eliminated, he thinks, in spite of our present surroundings. He then suggests reconstruction and finally a constructive phase, when all the false situations and nations will have passed away. The ex-Congressman has worked out what may be called a pretty theory, and well fitted for a people who are well in hand of those fitted to deal out the instructions. If we were experimental communities, where each member was bent on self-improvement, having in view the improvement of the whole, his system would be wholly practicable, and when assurance from the people was lacking. As it is he will find it difficult to set aside the ideals set up by the white people in whatever direction. The race is not well in hand, nor will it ever be, nor, perhaps is it desirable. For, after all, there has been efficacy in the white man's ideals. Of course one blushes, often, to see our own race set aside by the race and thus consciously supporting the white man's ideals wholly. But as to the profit and loss in the transactions the race is on the profit side. Humanity says that the Negroes should have good ideals, and not have this respect makes room for Mr Murray's philosophy, the foundation stone being, that a race that, has no respect for itself can not expect the respect of other races. So the speaker's words are not without possible good. But as said before, he presents no new thing, nor anything not thought or said before. He has simply arrayed his thoughts systematically in opposition to those deeply imbedded hurting things, and which do serve to make vast the distance and differences between the races. It would not do to take all on of what he suggests for that would arrest the progress of the race, which should strive for the utmost. The white people would not care to see us evolving too much as a peculiar people for this would make our civil doom sure and certain. If we were alone, as said before, in communities, we would be foolish to surrender our ideals altogether for the purpose of taking on those of other peoples. And yet we should do that very thing in part under any circumstances. The Japanese, for instance, are taking on European culture, also the Chinese; yet in the main they cling to their own ideals. What they borrow and incorporate is for the national betterment. Perhaps if we should act somewhat on this line much of Mr. Murray's philosophy would be answered in the affirmative and the race in the meanwhile would be better. know Brunswick's ball team always come out ahead of any game.

A Most Wonderful Industry-Hints On Scenario Writing and Acting. (By Hunter C. Haynes, of The Afro American Film C. Co., New York City.) It is an undeniable fact that moving pictures are one of the greatest ten inventions of modern times. The development of industry is now a subject for writers in newspapers and magazines of every kind. I fear, that the Negro does not have the same moving pictures has meant to them, or that it is going to mean in the future. In the middle ages miracles and mystery plays of the church, or the case of a accomplished man or a case ofular religion. The moving pictures can do the same thing today if given a chance at home, it can be scorned and frowned upon and called taboo. It may, however, be welcomed and unlifted and be made a mighty agency in the general deep and contemptuous study of the future possibilities of the moving pictures, brings to light a new school of actors unspoken language. It is much more difficult to act before the camera than on the stage. It is not so easy to conceive of a movie of joy, misery, love, hate, envy, regret, and grief solely by the expression of the face and by the movements. The actor or actress who can act or pantomime on the other hand, of laughter to the eyes of the audience, may look forward to a bright future, as they will be the required by the moving picture firms. The remarkable and rapid growth of this industry has also opened another field, and that is scenario writing. At the same time, the ability to have all the ability of a playwright for the legitimate stage, added to that, he has the ability of producing the story—keeping the clear and unfagging—without the assistance of written or spoken words, the entire action must be unfallingly precise. For example, a scientist's scientific photography—the sort of scenery available. A scenario, for instance, which requires the use of a ship or a constant source of light. For a foundering of a steamer would be useless to a director whose "props" did not include such a ship or constant source of light. For a scenario writer should always consult the director of some moving picture concern regarding such props as his ship or constant source of light. For a strategy to secure permission to watch a few plays staged, so as to get some idea of the technicalities. These are the director's responsibility, in harmony towards the whole, and in have part been responsible for the increasing popularity of this new art, which has opened the eyes of the world. Taking these figures mentioned as a guide, makes it evident that there are many genius minds in the work either in methods, or perfect the new methods, or introducing new ideas. This is the day of new masters in the business ethics of this world, the head handchief and the "candle light" ideas have ceased to play any important part in the business ethics of this world, and the swiftest epoch of the world's progress—in the age of incredibilities come true. We are now able to hear our friends in Paris by squirting a little spark from a pole on one shore of the Atlantic to another pole on the other, and to course that which our grandfathers would declare a miracle. To the Negro who has money to invest now in the moving picture industry. HELENA. MONT. Special to The Freeman LAKE FOREST. ILLINOIS. Special to The Freeman.

London and Paris Interested—Indians Play Colored Champs in Prison—A Game of Interest and Fun. LONDON, June 5 — Six thousand sojourners deposited in the inn at gold ever deposited to the inn at gold ever deposited were posted in the office of the Sportsman's information for the approachman between "Jack" Johnson and "Sam Lance" Johnson, over over over Austin, representing the elite promoting the fight. He was accompanied by a uniform who closely guarded six bags, each containing weapons. The money represents Johnson's share whether he wins, loses or draws. The United States friends of Jack Johnson who were visiting during the money. It looked, once, as if the champ was going to have difficult sledding even after he had escaped. The money came his way, to some ex-communards perhaps for good. Very little has come from Paris direct from Jack Johnson himself. Dojust not believe that he may never be known. Silence, one would think, is discretion, since he has no knowledge of welcome amid the crowd, whether he attends as expected or not. But history of his life from Reno up until the Moran go up to the attractions of the city. A biography would allow nothing of his life to escape. I can conceive of no more fascinating stories than what was done so as to merit the title. Not only would there be a retaliation of interesting facts, but their inspiration would be the rights of men. Then with Chicago, New York, London, Paris as the backgrounds in the main included in the book, it would be some book. Perhaps the story of his life too well told, as Hugo might tell it, or Balzac would not be able to collect the rights of men, but the theme we forget nationality and think of the individual. We exchange change plans, we are aware we are all in and at our vicarious suffering. Harriet Beecher Stowe was such a writer, who could arouse the very rocks to mutiny, as Shakespeare has Johnson is not a bit uneasy in spite of talk that he is going back, getting out of it. Remember the date, June 27, at Paris. They have high old times now and then even behind prison walls. A few weeks ago the prisoners of a California institution had a game of baseball beatingmates. The game had all of the features of the clubs that play on the outside, including a bow-bearing the ball, a bow-bearing the player. He got in a mixup with a pitcher, coming to high words. They unimpressed soon as he got out of prison he was going to beat him up. The umpire told him that he would have great difficulty in carrying out about three years before he did. Last week the Indianapolis, a big league team, played the colorado team, and the other follows are the champs of the two teams, the other being made up of white players. Warden Thomas mustered up a worthy audience—just 1,600. Those games are when the games in Indianapolis when the audience is from 800 up, can imagine what a "gang" of spectators they sore. One of the top players can think about so many persons that not worthy of guide—sermons in stones. But hear on the Indianapolis Star, on the subject. And when Tommy Griffith hit the bat, dear over the wall that detains these worms from associating with those of us, they have not been placed behind it, have not been more than a couple of laughter when he flanked, shortstop for the Giants, cried out; LEVI AND DENVER OR LIFE CAN'T ALWAYS BE APPLE BLOSSOMS (BY Billy Lewis.) 'Dear child, I'd like to be a 'ridin' dab ball!' It was pathetic as well as humorous. A pretty story, big with sympathy. It suggests the song, 'Like As a Father Pititit His Children', etc. Our national mime may not prove to do so very well, but it is not judging by the intense interest of the 1,600 prisoners it it were like the sowing of the seed.

NEW YORK.—With a big pocketful of American dollars and the agreement to play in the league, four rounds in London on July 4, Fredrik Welsh, lightweight champion of England, sailed June 6 on the Imperator. Ritchie will follow Welsh on Wednesday in London, where he will play in He was to leave Chicago for New York today. The battle will be staged in London, the home of the team. The boys will weigh in at 135 pounds at 2 o'clock. The end of the argument came along last night when Bob Vernon, representing the promoter, placed a certified check for $5,200 with Billy Gibson. This goes for the staging of the team at $200 for Ritchie's attendance to this city. Ritchie is to receive a guarantee of $15,000 for fighting, $10,000 for his share of the moving pictures picture $10,000. Ever since Ritchie won the title from Wolgaet, Welsh has been after him for many years. He has played in Angles some time ago in a twenty-round bout and Welsh received the first two titles in the rankdfd in Ritchie's bosom and he always declared that the first good purse he received for meeting Welsh would be about the match. This is the good purse. Ball players who care more for their batting averages than they do to win ball games are soon discovered. They seem find a place with a first-class team. Frequently they are able to conceal their temperament. But as soon as the ball is in play, ball players have been beaten, go into the shower bath, laughing and singing and then yell out, ball players have any self-respecting manager will either impose a fine or look around for a trade. They play during batting practice players will start in panning the pitcher who is warming them up. It's almost a certainty this pitcher has too much confidence. But a player the hitters are afraid to stand up and bat. They like to shoot long and terrific liner to the outfield so the fans can see the ball being put into the dope on the ball they are lucky to lay down a dinky grounder. Aw, why don't you send in somebody who can locate the plate," they snarl. KNOCKED OUT KID FIELDS—PRE PARED TO DO IT AGAIN. Sporting Editor of Indianapolis Free- Dear Sir--I saw in your paper (The Freeman), of March 19th, that he called himself the colored featherweight champion of the world. He also states that he has had six victories, and the fellow that defeated him is afraid to fight him again. I wish toate the sports jumps he made. One of the one who defeated Fields. I knocked Fields out in eight rounds in January before the West. I fought him by the Marquis of Queensbury rules (clean break) at any time.
