SUCCESSFUL CON JL CONFERENCE SUCCESFUL CONFERENCE Boost Pay and read The Bystander XXVI No.15 Rev. S. L. Birt, D. D., pastor of St. Paul's A. M. E. Church has been returned to serve his fifth year. When Dr. Birt first came to Des Moines he found the people worshipping in a small church, which had well served its purpose. Dr. Birt conceived the idea of larger quarters for the people. The church was not alltogether in accord with his movement at first but let it be said to the credit of the members, they put the shoulder to the wheel and helped to set it in motion without dissenting voices. In four years' time The annual conference of the A. M. E. Church which just closed her eight days' session Monday evening at Quinn Chapel Church Chicago, Ill., was one of the most successful and largely attended session ever held and the reports from all the districts showed an increase in finances. Below we publish the official appointments as read by Bishop Coppin, the presiding bishop of this district, also the list of delegates elected to attend the general conference at St. Louis, Mo., next summer: Chicago District.

This city is the county seat of Randolph county, a very old city located in the rough hills, about one mile from the depot. Here we found about 1,000 colored people many are miners and they are making good wages. There are two churches, the A. M. E. and the Baptist, the latter is pastored by Rev. G. D. Saunders, who was making preparations for a mortgage burning, grand rally and basket dinner for Sept. 28, the reverend is a great church worker and has done many good things for the citizens here. Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Robinson are still here doing well in their pleasant home with many flowers and a large lot to enjoy real puleasure and comfort. Mr. H. S. Teeters and J. D. Cammachel are also here, doing well. Ed. Manuel, formerly an Iowa man is still here doing well. He wishes to be remembered by his Iowa friends. Prof. S. T. Pttigrew, our good old friend, was on the porch of his beautiful home enjoying a rest after teaching school as the principal temporarily filling out the time until the schoolboard can secure a principal. Rev. J. H. Ross lives here. Mr. O. A. Hughes is running a restaurant in co-partnership. Mr. H. Hicks is one of the leading citizens here. He is janitor of the school house. Chas. Hicks is no relation to the other Hicks is a carpenter and has plenty of work. Alex Smith owns a small farm as also does Mr. Clarence Teeters just outside of the city limits. Clarence Kirby owns a farm. From there we went to Salisbury, Mo. Mr. W. M. Dameron is still here working at his trade. Here we have three churches, the Christian, pastored by Rev. Hancock, who is doing well; the Baptist and A. M. E. There are two teachers in their public schools, Prof. Boulding of Moberly, is still holding the principalship: Mrs. Minnie Hurd is doing well. Celecia Minor and Mr. Moss are both doing well. Rev. F. H. Rhoads is living here. He is the pastor at Armstrong and Keytesville. Edward Jaco is doing well as is also Mrs. Lizzie McAdams. This town has about 1,000 colored people and there are many contractors here doing work every day. Keytesville, Mo., was our next stop, a county seat town located in the hills about two miles from the depot. They have a mule tramp street car that carries the passengers up to the town. There are about 500 colored people. Two churches the Baptist pastored by Rev. F. H. Rhoades, who lives in Salisbury, Mo., and the A. M. E. pastored by Rev. W. D. Calkins, a young man of much ability and enthusiasm. He and his able wife are active workers in this vineyard. They had arranged a date for ye editor to lectur on the "War and Reconstruction After the War," but owing to the heavy rain only a few could come out, yet they had a good social meeting. Mr. and Mrs. Boone still lives here. He is doing all the THE NEW ST. CHURCH WHEN FERENCE WILL The American Co-operative Invest founded by and for the colored people continued and increasing success.

To maintain health, a mature man or woman needs just enough food to repair the waste and supply energy and body heat. The habitual consumption of more food than is necessary for these work that he can get at his carpenter trade. Mr. M. Christopher has bought a farm just outside of the city limits where they live, doing exceedingly well. Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Miller is here doing well. Mr. L. Twyman is doing well here. We next stopped in Dalton a little town of about 800 inhabitants of which fully 500 are colored. This is the only town that I have seen where the colored outnumbered the whites. It is here that is located the Bartlett Agricultural and Industrial School, the young Tuskegee of the north, managed by Prof. N. C. Bruce, principal and founder of this growing and coming college. This worthy organization had just opened its thirteenth annual session. It is located upon the highest track of ground just one-half mile from the depot overlooking the little town and the surrounding country for many miles. They have many buildings and barns, a fine silo and was just laying out the foundation for a beautiful tenroom residence for Prof. Bruce which was very much needed, as their old house was not in keeping with the other new building recently erected. We know of no better school opportunities for a young man or girl where they have the fine advantage of pure air, pure water under such good and wholesome morals at this young school now offers. The world will soon hear from Bartlett. Prof. Bruce has won second prize in corn at the world's fair in Los Angeles, Cal., a few years ago and first prize in Missouri state fair several times. He has recently purchased an additional 160 acres of good second bottom land southwest of town and raised about 100 acres of good fall wheat and other cereals in proportion. It is well worth your time and money to visit this school and come in touch with Prof. Bruce and his busy and very helpful wife and their family. See their advertisement elsewhere in the Bystander. There are a large number of farmers in and around Dalton. Here are a few of them: H. C. Bruce, Ellis Allen, a pioneer farmer here owning a fine farm; Robert Christopher, M. S. Smalls, Mr. and Mrs. Mann, L. Lewis, John L. Finnell and brother, Clarence Finnell, J. W. F. Tatum, Peter Clarey owns a fine quarter section; Floyd Winn, William Fristoe, Edward Pettigrew, Lem Bayne, Mrs. Amanda Skillman is still here doing well. J. B. Tisdale is doing nicely. Prof. J. M. Barton is the teacher in the public school. He also owns a first class grocery store. There is one church, the Baptist, which is the only church in this city that has a church bell to call and awaken the sinners and remind the faithful of their duty. Prof. R. S. Cobb, formerly one of the secretaries of the Y. M. C. A. at Camp Dodge, Des Moines, is a teacher. We were glad to meet him so soon again. Mr. Moses Ellington is an influential citizen, doing well.

THE NEW YORK MALL Seldom do we ever write about any of our local business enterprises yet there comes a time when for its historical value and from a city pride are we pleased to inform the public and especially the newcomer of some facts that they do not know. The Harris-Emery store is the oldest dry goods store in our city. It was organized in 1867 der the name of Harris & Osgood and later Mr. Osgood interest was sold to Mr. Emery and then known as Harris-Emery Co., and about twenty years ago the Frankel Bros. of Oskalosa (Special to The Bystander.) Sioux City, Iowa, Sept. 29—Mrs. Laurence C. Jones, United States postmistress and assistant treasurer of "The Piney Woods Country Life School," Braxton, Miss., who has been in the north this summer with her husband, Prof. Laurence C. Jones, in the interest of their work, was a dinner guest today of the Sioux City Rotary Club in the banquet room of the beautiful Hotel Martin, and made the address before the club on the Race Problem. The Rotary Clubs of America are composed of the highest type representative of the various business and profession interests of the city. The Sioux City club numbers about two hundred. This was the first time in the history of the Rotary Clubs of America that one of our race women was thus honored. As a result of Mrs. Jones' address the businessmen of Sioux City contributed $1,200 to her for the use in the uplift of our people. This big recognition of the work of Mrs. Jones, who was formerly Grace Morris Allen of Burlington, Iowa, should be an inspiration to every girl of our race. Mrs. Jones partly worked her way through the Burlington, Iowa High school. A member of the club whose guest she was, formerly lived in Burlington and Mrs. Jones scrubbed his wife's porch each week during her high school career. After high school days she established in Burlington an Industrial Art Institute which had both white and colored teachers and students. Mrs. Jones who is a splendid example of what an Iowa colored girl can accomplish, has a host of white and colored friends who wish her God speed in the great work she is so nobly helping to carry forward. IOWA CITY ITEMS. (Special to The Bystander.) Eleven girls are now located in their beautiful home at 942 Iowa avenue. They are planning to have an opening of the home on Saturday, Oct. 4.

Griffin were taken to the University hospital, victims of diphtheria; at the present they are doing as well as can be expected. We hope for their speedy recovery. Miss Harriet Alexander is eagerly awaiting for the first foot ball game to be played Saturday between Iowa and Nebraska. About twenty-two colored boys have registered into the university for this year. bought the Emery interest and they have enlarged and remodeled until today they have the largest and most modern dry goods store west of Chicago, nine stories with a hospital for the employees also a cafeteria for the employees, also a fine cafeteria for the public and all other modern conveniences for the public known to science and skill.

Our country was again shocked this week to learn that lynch law has spread to the northwest, reaching Omaha, Neb., and because of an alleged assault on a white woman by a colored man named Banks. The mob gathered at the county jail where Banks had been removed from the city jail to a more safe place. The mob gathered to about 10,000 around the jail and the mayor and officers would not let them in then the mob became mad took the mayor and actually hung him, but the rope was cut before he died. They then broke into the court house and burned that fine new court house until they smoked the officers and criminals from out of the jail which was on the top floor of the court house. They than hung Banks to a telephone pole and burned his body like they do in the south. Three white men were killed and fifty-two injured with the mayor in the hospital in a very dangerous condition. We deplore those horrible deeds committed by either white or black and certainly there can be no law too severe for those found guilty; but in no event nor under no circumstances should mob law prevail. Think of the destruction of thousands of dollars of property and the loss of lives to get one man; this disrespect and mob violence is growing in our land. They have no respect of color. It must be stopped and the good people must stand together for right and justice or else we will be worse than Russia with labor strikes, Nihalist and anarchist and I. W. W., and race riots our country is getting in a bad condition. This mayor will go down as a hero trying to up hold and defend the laws of his city and state. He was true to his oath dying that he might give justice. CON McCARTHY'S DEATH. On Saturday morning our city was all wrought up about the terrible story of a colored man shooting and instantly killing one of our detectives, Con McCarthy, who had arrested him early Monday morning at 2 o'clock as a suspect, who had been burglaring the homes in our city. He arrested the colored man and took him to a corner to await the arrival of the patrol wagon. Just before the wagon had reached them the colored man said he was tired and asked to sit down. The officer granted it, at that moment the desperado shot the officer and made his escape. Those coming in the patrol wagon fired several shots at him. He fired at them and kept on running; as yet he has not been apprehended. We feel very sorry over the death of such a good officer who was a true and kind friend of our race. MACON MISSOURI NEWS.
