BIRTHDAY DINNER PARTY
Henry Bell, 94 years of age, and possible the oldest man in the city of Des Moines, was given a happy surprise Thursday of last week, when his white neighbors of Fremont street united in planning and carrying out a birthday dinner party in his honor. The ninety-fourth birthday celebration was held at his home on Fremont street where he has lived for the last thirty years, and among those who joined in wishing him many happy returns of the occasions were people who have been his neighbors for nearly a quarter of a century.
Mr. Bell is well know and the story of his life is that of a slave who worked his way from slavery to a comfortable home of his own in the North. He earned enough money to puachase his own release from slavery before the end of the war, and since the close of the war has made his home in Des Moines with his wife, until her death two years ago. Since then he has lived alone in the same house.
He has still excellent control of his faculties, but is slightly decrepit from age, and since the death of his wife his health has been slowly failing.

SAMUEL WADE PASSES AWAY.
Samuel Wade, a survivor of the civil war, died at his home in the rear of 212 East Court avenue at 8 o'clock last Friday evening after an illness of a few days.
Mr. Wade, who was 55 years of age, has lived in Des Moines since the close of the civil war, and was well known to many of the old veterans with whom he allied himself at all reunions which it was possible for him to attend. He was an escaped slave who made his way north during the war, and was one of the oldest residents of East Court avenue.
RELIGION NEGRO'S ONLY
HOPE.
St. Louis, Oct. 1.—In a sermon this morning Archbishop Glennon declared that religious training was the chief hope for the solution of the Negro problem and that the black man's future would be more secure when he ceased to be the property of political bosses.
"Once the property of slave owners, the black man is now the property of politicians," he declared, "and it needs the conquest religion to make him control his emotions, to devote himself to industry rather than to politics and to emancipate him from political sway. The colored man is ruled largely by emotions. What he needs is training of the heart, control of the emotions, the complete coequest in him by the moral law.
"It is only through a thorough religious training that this can be done. Ooly through the dominant influence of religion maka a decent mode of life be created for him."
REAL QUALIFCATION.
We often hear the common expression among our people that you need not qualify yourself, or you need not go to school any longer, for after you have finished you cannot get anything to do. Let me say my dear race, do not be misled, let us become prepared to do any work or fill any position of honor or trust, even though you know you cannot now use it, because it is a great deal better to be prepared to fill these places sometimes.
Then again it is a pleasure to know that you can do any work others can do. If we should ask today in our city for two stenographers, bookkeepers, two bank clerks, two dry goods clerks, two clothing clerks or even two school teachers, we dare say that we could not find half enough. We as a race make our most serious mistake in thinking that we are qualified, when we are not qualified for the work. Parents keep your children in school till they finish.
Let us first qualify ourselves in the real sense of the word qualification, and by and by there will come a time that we may be called upon to fill a position, then we can go and secure it. We will not say we wish we had studied when we had a chance. Let us think seriously on the question.
AUTUMN.
By an inexorable law the autumn of 1905 has come with her cooler atmosphere and gentler breeze, with her ripened grain and matured fruit, all the year's labor of man to garnered and harvested for the winter's consumption. The great question is what did we sow last spring and summer? that we hope to harvest this fall? Have we sown the seeds of kindness, have we planted the grain of brotherly love? Have we matured the spirit of christian obedience to God who causes the great changes of our seasons? If so, you may hope to reap much this fall and enjoy the blessings of the autumn time.
How does this weather suit you?
ROOSEVELT AT TUSKEGEE
Mr. Roosevelt, president of these United States of America, has just completed the itinerary of his great Southern visit, going into the states of Virginia, Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana and Florida. He has planned to spend Oct. 23 in Tuskegee, the guest of Booker T. Washington's great school. Mr. Washington will now have the distinguished honor of entertaining the president at his home.
No true, liberal, broadminded American citizen could travel through the southern states hoping to really learn something of its development without visiting some of the great schools for colored people.
AS OTHERS SEE US
Below we publish a mention of one of the successful business men of Taylor county. The article is taken from the Times Republican of Bedford, Iowa in a write up of the town of Gravity, under the head "Business Men." The article speaks for itself and is true. Ye editor has known Mr Johnson for many years. He has a brother who is doing well on a farm. Men like these brothers are doing more to solve the race problem than a dozen speeches. Go out and get something and become a real man and a good citizen. "A fine three chair barber shop centrally located on the west side of Main street at Gravity, is the property of R. H. Johnson." "Dick" has been in the barber business in this place ever since sinch gravity has been on the map, and he has made it pay too. The large fine brick building in which the shop is located, belongs to him as does the adjoining room in which is located the millinery store. This is one of the most desirable business places in town and it is all the result of his own efforts.
But this is not all, "Dick" owns a fine farm just north of town, and on the day we called he had just finished threading 150 bushels of as fine wheat as were ever raised in Taylor county. All this wheat was raised on 6 acres of land. He also has a splendid prospect for corn. Johnson's shop is furnished in good style, he himself is a fine workman and he employs none but first class barbers. A bath room connection with shop."

PROPER TREATIES QUESTION
“iagrecmont~France Thinks ustor
perry aera lat edt
Paris, Oct. 5.—Chancellories here
and throughout Burope are taking
the keenest Interest in the possible
and even probable’ formation of a
new European alliance consequent
upon the termination of the war and
‘the conclusion of a closer Anglo-Jap-
anese alliance. ‘This has advanced
veyond discussion In the newspapers
and has already reached the stage of
Aisereet diplomatic soundings,
‘Tho various proposed reallgmments
‘of European powers are divided into
three main; movements—first, British
inelination toward an accord with
Russia; second, a German-Russian
movement for an alliance to offset
the Anglo-Japanese alliance; and,
third, Russo-German overtures to in:
duce’ France to join the Intter group-
ing.
Great Britain's desire: for a_reap-
prochement with Russia has brought
‘about the distinct diplomatic sug:
gestion that Great Britian is ready
to give fuller recognition to Russia’s
privileged position in southern Tur-
key, notably at Constantinople and
along the Bosphorus. Russia's amb:
tlous in that direction have hereto-
fore encountered strong opposition
in England.
‘The view in French offcint quar-
ters is distinctly favorable to an. An-
gloRussian rapprochement. It was
fone of the projects of M. Deleasse
when foreign minister to have King
Edward visit Emperor Nicholas ag a
means for furthering the recoueflation
‘of Russia and Great Britain, Since
the retirement of M, Deleasse this
project has been in abeyanee, but
the officials continue favorable to an
Anglo-Russian entente,
‘Concerning the propéséd Geritan-
Russian agreement strong elements
in both countries favor an necord ss
1 counterpolse to tne Anglo-Japanese
alliance. ‘The Temps prints an auth-
orlzed interview with prince yon Bue-
low, the German imperial chancellor
at Basten Baden, openly advocating a
German-Russian ‘reapprochemeat. ‘The
Prince says:
“It is natural and (raditional that
we should have the best relations
with Russia, Why. should France take
umbrage? We do not take umbrage
because of the FrancoRussian allt:
nee, A system of pacific alliances
would assure the equilibrium of
Europe. The Francodtalian rap.
prochment has not an antl-German
character, nor should a Russo-Ger:
man rapprochement have an anti
French character.”
In connection with French particl
pation in a RussoGerman rapproche-
ment it can be definitely stated that
France before considering anew
alignment of the powers intends to
await the final determination of the
controversy wth regard to Morocco,
im which country Germany frst Inter-
rupted the Fronch programme.
