KANSAS Vol. IX MIDNIGHT PAYS HIS RESPECTS TO SCIPIO JONES Chicago, July 27.—The six men who have been lingering between life and death in the jail and penitentiary down in Arkansas must feel as happy as a june-bug in a blackberry patch on a bright July day. They have been turned aloose to roam at will and enjoy freedom and like the saint who escaped Hades they can sing "The devil's mad and I am glad, because he missed the soul he thought he had." I want to pay my respects to Attorney Scipio Jones, who is without a doubt one of the greatest law-years in America, and I say nothing about race or color or previous condition to circumstances. He has put circumstances, condition and all the ills right under his feet and says to the world I know the law and I am asking no favors because I was born on the dark side of the moon. Right by his side has been a young man that the world will know that he lived. He is a young limb of the law but he is going into it just like the old fellows. He is a lawyer, J. Robert Booker. He is the son of Dr. Jos. A. Booker, the president of the Arkansas Baptist College in Little Rock. I think this has something to do with his wonderful ability, because he is the son of his father and it is a great thing to be the son of your father and at the same time be an improvement on his father. Every son ought to be an improvement on his father. He ought to know more, he ought to be better educated and really ought to render better service. It is very fortunate that all of this should have happened before the meeting of the National Negro Business League, which is to be in Hot Springs, August 15, 16 and 17. The state Negro Business League will meet August 13 and 14 and then will follow this great National meeting. My people now have a better opinion of Arkansas and some who decided to stay away are packing their trunks, getting ready to be there. We will all be glad to hear Governor McCray, who will deliver an address an Wednesday evening, August 15. Now he can speechify, he can tell of the greatness of his state, the greatness of his people and say that Arkansas believes in justice and fair play and every man will have justice. He can look them in the face and tell them that he is governor of all the people, that his state would not legally lynch twelve men but after giving them a fair trial returned them to their families. When he is through we will all join in singing "Praise God from whom all blessings flow," and hail with delight the state of wonders. As I seat myself down in a chair and ink and paper on the table and pen in hand to write you a few lines to inform you of my health I find myself in the city of Chicago in a room undisturbed, where flies are not allowed to light and he who hideth by day and walketh by night dare not to poke up his head night or day. I will bet you my head to a ginger cake that when you get through reading this letter you will declare that I am one of the most goingest men there is, for when I wrote you last I was not where I am now and when I write you again I will not be here for since I wrote you the other time I have looked around Washington, went to Richmond and when I was there I wrote you that other letter and I felt like saying "the roses are red and the violets are blue," because I was stopping with Lucien Miller and his wife. They just courted all the time and they are the most lovinest people in the marriage business. Then I made a trip over to Buckroe beach to take a look at those teeth dentist doctors, to hear them talk about how they half sole teeth, how they patch them up, the various kind of dams they use when they are half-soling. I never dreamed they were such cussing people yet they must do some the other kinds of dams, they use working on some of those old snags so I just pray for them as they use the dams, the' rubber dams and all the other kinds of dams, they are reconstructing teeth and making somebody healthy. These are a fine SUBSCRIPTION·PRICE TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50 bunch of men and they are filling their places. After spending the day Major Allen Washington of Hampton Institute, met me at the C. & O. stable in his automobile car carriage, toted me to Buckroe, then to Hampton Institute, where I saw all them hundreds of teachers who had been spilling their education all during the past year in the heads of others and were having their heads refilled. I wonder why people have to go to school after they get plomified, for if I had a ploma my head would be too large to strike any college and the people would all look at me as I passed by and admire me for my much knowledge and they would want my head if they could get it, but thank God I'm satisfied. Then he toted me down to Newport News by the Y. M. C. A. Secretary Williams was off at Harper's Ferry trying to take a look at the remains of John Brown. I landed over to the stable, caught the Chesapeake and Ohio, made it back to Richmond, spent the night, left the next morning at 9 o'clock for Norfolk and when I stepped off the boat in Norfolk I found Dr. Robt. J. Brown, the tooth dentist doctor, waiting to tote me over to his house to see his family and get on the outside of a few fried chickens whose heads had fallen that I might enjoy myself. I went to see L. W. Bright, Dr. Burke, the pastor of St. John A. M. E. church, got myself together and at nine o'clock that night made a hike for Kittrell, N. C. The carriage drawn by the iron horse did not stop at Kittrell, but made it on down the road while I got off at Henderson, N. C., and to my unspeakable joy found Prof. G. A. Edwards, president of Kittrell College, awaiting my arrival with his quick stepper, the Marmon, that is one of the most steppinest automobile car carriages and you will believe me honey when I tell you that President Edwards knows how to step on the gas and that old thing liked to have spilled its fool brains all along the road. Well, Mrs. Edwards was not at home for she was up yonder in Columbia, New York, getting her some more education that she might impart it to the young people and cram a little of it into Prof. Edwards. He was in a talking mood and he talked and he talked until it was six o'clock. I told him that some fellow wanted me to preach at his church and to this he replied: "That fellow will not give you any money to amount to anything and I will just give you ten dollars to remain here and let me look at you." I just remained and snored and slept and slept and snored until five o'clock, then we stepped over to Raleigh and made another step to Method, N. C., which town should be named O'Kelly for Berry O'Kelly is the whole cheese. He was stepping around like a glad dog in the vicinity of a meat house. His smile would rival the gold dust twins. It was not long before I realized what had happened for after all these years as a widowed he had been captured. There is now at the head of his house a queen. I was delighted to shake hands with Mrs. O'Kelly. They are just two little children and as happy as two peas in one pod. I returned to Kittrell took on another night's sleep, bright and early Monday morning found me on my way to Raleigh to visit the summer school and make a few scattering remarks to the teachers. They (Continued on Page 4.) Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Montgomery are building a new modern bungalow at 1016 Oakland avenue. Mrs. A.

CITY On Saturday, July 28, the Monarchs will play their first series of games in the new park, and it has been predicted that the coming series between the Monarchs and the American Giants will draw a record breaking crowd. On Sunday, July 29th, preparations are being made to handle 20,000 people, the greatest crowd to enter the new park so far this season. There will be no advance in prices in the new park There will be more than 1600 box seats and 6000 reserve seats on sale at the park box office early Sunday. General admission tickets will be sold as usual at the different ticket places in the city. Those desiring box and reserve seats can leave their orders with Secretary Gilmore at Sparks Shining Parlor at Eighteenth and Vine or at the park and the same will be set aside up to a certain hour before the game. There is great rivalry between the Blue fans and the Monarch fans to see which team can draw the biggest crowd on Saturday. The Blues have had something like 15,000 and it is now up to the Monarch fans to top that crowd. Fifteen thousand is a big crowd. A big steam roller has been used on the new playing field for three days, which will assure the Monarchs a much faster in and outfield than the Blues have had. The outfield is not in the best of condition because of the hard rains but with a day or two of rolling the old ground Keeper Charley Moss states that he will have the fastest field in the country. There is only one entrance to the new park, and that is an Twenty-second and Brooklyn, and the pass gate around on Twenty-second street. Eleven gates have been installed at the entrance so there is no great need for a rush. The new park can be emptied in 20 minutes after a game. The same arrangements will prevail at the new park, as we had at the old park. The best of seats in the reserve and the box sections. Ladies Day on Tuesday is expected to break all records for their attendance. It is expected that as many as 3,000 fair ones will be there on next Tuesday, after the big opening.

The details of this Business Week will hereafter be discussed in the column of the Advocate, be explained and worked out. As the plans are now laid it is intended to make it one of the greatest and most profitable enterprises yet undertaken by the members of our group. The idea underlying the enterprise is to have every man, woman and child interested in the progress, and to appeal to the honor and pride of every one, and in the end to materially benefit each and every member of the race. There can be no reason why the undertaking will not succeed, but many, even every reason why it should be a glowing success. It is our purpose to propagate the matter in every way possible through the churches, schools, lodges and by a house to house campaign. It was also decided to make the monster demonstration, before the commissioners in regard to the Community House, which took place Tuesday. Also, further plans to make the membership drive a success, were set on foot. Soundings were given of a deplorable condition of affairs' that threatens the welfare of our group. We do not know whether or not these soundings are true—if they are, then it is high time—aye, and beyond time—that we awake to a full sense of the most horrible and deadly danger. We will wait to see what fruit comes of the prospect. $400 and up for these dandy HOMESITES and on very easy terms. 6% interest. See Mr. Fleming, with M. E. B., 605 Minnesota avenue.

I has attracted men and women for religious training from all over this state and other states, who have come to the Institute to improve themselves in the general work of the ministry, mission and Sunday school work and deacons.

GUIDE'S STORY HARD TO BEAT in Schoolboy Parlance, Youthful Sportman Would Have to "Go Some" in Way of Romancing. I have just read in the Youth's Companion, writes a correspondent, the story of the dog that tracked the turkey back to the nest where it had been catched. The yarn recalls to my mind a hunting story that an old man of the Oznarks told me a few years ago, says a writer in that magazine. Seventeen miles out from the little village of X——, in Missouri, lived an old bachelor named Bill Green. In those days the hills abounded in wild turkeys and deer and he often served as guide to hunting parties and to fishermen. The season had opened and a party of sportsmen from Kansas City had secured old Bill's services. In the party was a young fellow who evidently had had some experience in shooting deer, but whose stories of his achievements were exaggerated and long; the other members of the party were tired of his boasting. They were astonished therefore when old Bill, who by nature was taciturn, said to the young fellow: "Say now, that reminds me of the other mornin'. I got up just 'fore day and went down to the deer lick as I allus do, and there in the bright moonlight stood a great big buck. I raised my gun and was ready to fire when I noticed on the limb jist above nine turkeys roostin' in a row. At fust I was puzzled which to shoot at, the turkeys of the deer. Then all at once I thought of a plan. I crept a little nearer and almed at the limb where the turkeys sat. I fired away, and at the same instant I threw 'my gun and knocked down the buck; in a second I run up and knifed him. Then I looked above where I had shot and split the limb, which held every one of the turkeys by the toes. Well, sir, I took down the turkeys, tled them 'together and hung them around my neck; then I threw the buck over my shoulder and started for home, well satisfied even if I'd got no more game that morning. But, sir, as I was wadin' the creek the fish smelled the blood on my clothes and jest run up my breeches legs; and those breeches, hein' full big, got so heavy I could hardly walk. And when I tried to step out on the bank the top button busted off and killed a rabbit ten steps away!" Needless to remark, the young sportsman was silent for the rest of the day. To Keep Ahead. Dudley Field' Malone, the New York lawyer and wit, sald at a dinner party: "The jewelry' shops of the Rue de la Palix in Paris are all displaying pipes for women—marvelous affairs—gold and meerschaum and amber and gems—and you see the prettiest women smoking these pipes at Paillard's and the Ritz and under the trees in Armenonville. "At the club the other afternoon a friend of mine took a big plug of tobacco out of his pocket, bit off an inch or two, and then held out the plug to me. "Have a chew?" he said. "No,' said I; 'I won't. And to tell the truth, Bill,' I went on, 'I'm a good deal shocked to see a man of your culture with a quid in his cheek. How did you come to take up this uncouth habit?" "Well, you see," said Bill, 'since my wife has gone in for pipe smoking I feel that I must do something to assert my masculinity.'" Flah Culture In Kansas In all southeastern Kansas there is no body of water so suitable for propagation of fish as the Fort Scott impounding lake, which covers more than a hundred acres and has a depth of 40 feet or more. But all the fish that could be grown in such a lake in ten years would be caught out in a single season if no restrictions were placed upon the fishers. If people generally were such fiends for fishing as those around Fort Scott there would be no fish in the ocean.—Fort Scott Tribune THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH J. F.

CHURCH NEWS Services were well attended at the 11 o'clock service, altho it was quite warm. The pastor, Rev. J. F. Griffin, filled his pulpit at this hour, and those who were present listened to an unusual strong sermon. Subject: "Christian's Duty to His Fellow Men" It was scholarly, but every word and sentence was simple, plain, understandable truths from the gospel of Jesus Christ. At the evening service the pastor preached in the minds of his hearers, a still greater sermon. It seemed to work its way through every pew, when hearts were made to feel the very essence of the holy spirit. A splendid Sabbath school attendance at 9:30 and great lesson, "Love" was the principal subject taught. The second Sunday in August will be Men's Day, when the men will have full charge of the services all day. Prof Frech is leader.

THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE METROPOLITAN TEMPLE NOTES A large audience attended Metropolitan Sunday morning and heard Dr. Bronson preach in a christian manner on the subject, "Love." He made a great impression with his sermon and won many commendations from saints and sinners. Many acquiesced by shouting as the Holy Spirit entered the Temple and held His right of way. Some, also, united with the church. Deacon Taylor especially praised the morning sermon, and told some who were not there, that "they missed a great treat." Mr. Jones, a student at W. U., rendered a christian talk before the sermon, and the Junior choir sang well. At 8 p. in. Dr. Bronson preached on "The Straight and Narrow Path." The sermon was said to be good. The B. Y. P. U. had a good meeting and a special address by a young man. The Sunday School is thriving and Deacon Lewis' wife has organized a special Bible Class in it. Most of the Installation Committee have arranged a program for this Sunday afternoon at 3 p. m. All are asked to come hear this program. Rev. Bronson also has organized a Sunday School Teachers' Bible Training Class, which all church members can attend and "The Brotherhood" is another new club. Pastor Bronson told of his trip to St. Paul, where he preached and was put on the Executive Board of the Western Baptist Convention. He will go to the convention, this week in Lawrence and expects to go to the National Baptist Convention at Los Angeles. At church meeting this Thursday night, they expect to make arrangements about the new pews and other important things for the church. Come to Metropolitan next Sunday, July 29, and hear the new anthems the senior choir will sing. The true members of this church will work if love and kindness is used. MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH ..... Kansas City, Kansas. Rev. E. M. Moseley, Pastor As usual a large crowd of worshippers finally gathered at our morning services. Arter a lively Sunday school, which apened at 9:00 a. m. was over, the deacons opened a spiritual prayer meeting and many enjoyed this service. At 11 a. m. our beloved pastor took his text from Acts 28:26. Subject, "A Changed Man." When he mentally drew a picture of Paul's sermon before Agrippa, there was so much stress placed on the power and influence of a changed man over an unchanged man that every believer feasted on the blessings of the Holy Spirit. and four additions were connected with the church and three sinners came forward and gave their hands to the pastor, promising to make their lives better. Sunday was our communion day and at 3 p. m. the deacons opened a speaking meeting and every one enjoyed another spiritual feast, by all who took part. The Mission Circle also is having preaching every Monday night which helps to keep the spiritual interest alive. Last Monday night Rev. Horton preached to them and we had another great spiritual feast. On Thursday night Rev. China preached for the Brothers' Club and we enjoyed another great spiritual feast from his discourse. We hope he will come again. We have an excellent choir, second to none, which furnishes good and harmonious music for our services. Our deacons are having some very necessary construction work done around the church, so let us all rally to their efforts and assist them. Every one is welcomely invited to come to Mt.

SPLINTERS Somewhere the fish are biting. Truth is generally a platitude. A rolling pin gathers no dough Cynicism is intellectual dandyism. You can't judge a horse by the harness. Big success never comes to a small man. Some people find pleasure in weeping. That little which is good fills the trencher. Make not fish of one and flesh of another. A good winter brings a good summer. Adversity makes a man wise, not rich. Joyfulness is the mother of all virtues. Even busy men occasionally make idle remarks. To enjoy life, don't voluntarily seek shudders. The woman is so hard upon the woman. Sometimes a man's love for horses is but a hobby. Have but few friends though many acquaintances. If every one would mend one all would be mended. As the days lengthen, so the cold strengthens. Where you cannot climb over you must creep under. Those who have known grief seldom seem sad. Repose is a good thing, but boredom is its brother: Business sweetens pleasure and labor sweetens rest: The village belle imagines she gives tone to society. Valor grows by daring—fear grows by holding back. Best of all cheerers is the holiday two months ahead. Mechanical Page-Turner. A device has recently been patented by which pages of music may be turned leaving the hands of the performer free at all times. It consists of an arrangement of levers operated by the foot, and may be fitted to any music stand. Its inventor says it will turn the music leaves in either direction with but a slight pressure with the foot on a pedal, all the control being done with the performer's foot, requiring no manipulation with the performer's hands; and that it will pick up a single leaf and transfer to desired position. The turning operation, he says, is performed in a small fraction of a second. "Kissing Bugs." About twenty-five years ago during the summers of 1898 and 1899, the newspapers featured stories about kissing bugs. These were species of the family Reduviidae, with the common name of cone-nose. In the southern United States they are called "giant bedbugs." They resemble bedbugs in being fierce biters and blood-suckers, and have the added advantage of wings. To be said in their favor, however, is the fact that they prey upon bedbugs and roaches.

Away Fun for All Uniform Ranks NEW PERIL CONFRONTS TABBY Demand for Furs Likely to Result in Diminution of Numbers of the Household Pet. Always a grisly and deadly peril now lies in wait for the tabby cat. Never before was it "furs"; but now it is. Pelets of 5,000 "common house cats" fell under the auctioneer's gavel at a recent fur sale at St. Louis. No longer may Thomas make hoops with his graceful back and whoops with his tenor voice on the high places in the backyard without attracting the silent huntsman; for there is the "cat rifle." "Click!" and all is over except the rap of the auctioneer's gavel. Heretofore the only enemy to be feared was the immemorial canine foe. Cats, it seems, are for something else in this exacting world than to catch mice. It is a trade that they have been accused of neglecting in these fat and prosperous days when crumbs from the master's table make one rather indifferent to mice. The mouse trap, an efficient and inexpensive mechanism, has pushed the cat aside. It is the history of all labor-saving machinery. It does the work better than the instrumentalities by nature provided. And now comes this insatiate vogue of "furs" to make kitty "useful" in spite of herself. ALL RIGHT FOR THAT WORK Rheumatism No Handicap to Tailor Who Measured Modern Girl for Her Bathing Costumes. Mrs. Carrie Jacobs Bond, whose song, "A Perfect Day," has sold over four million copies; said to a friend on a New York pier: "I am old-fashioned, as my songs show, and I must confess that the bathing dresses worn by the girls of England and France shock me. "I heard on the boat a story about a man who went to a sporting goods tailor to be measured for a pair of golf knickerbockers. "Where's old Tapes, who used to measure me?" the man asked. "I liked his work very much." "Tapes," said the tailor, 'got rheumatism and couldn't stoop low enough to measure for knickerbockers.' "I poor fellow!" said the customer. 'What's he doing now?' "Oh, we transferred him to the ladies' department," said the tailor, 'and he's measuring ladies now for swimming to s.'"

Byas, vice-president of the State School at Elizabeth City, N. C. I think it better to talk about this matter in another letter. At seven o'clock found me headed for Goldsboro, N. C., there to be the guest of the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias that is strictly business from start to finish. Dr. J. W. Jones is the Grand Chancellor. He opened the Grand Lodge at noon Tuesday, had the preliminaries, delivered his annual message, heard report from Grand Lodge officers, and took a recess until the next morning. In the afternoon the Past Chancellor's degree was conferred and in the evening welcome addresses were delivered. The mayor of Goldsboro did not send a substitute but was there himself. He let them know that he was a Knight, threw out a sign or two and in addition to that he let them know that he was a member of the Imperial order of the Ku Klux Klan. He was perfectly harmless, however, made his speech, remained and heard the response by Dr. James E. Shepherd and retired to the mysterious realms. I wish you could have heard the great report made by Prof. J. M. Aver, Grand Master of Exchequer and vice-president of the N. C. Mutual Life Insurance Co., and he also is some pumpkins with the Bankers Fire Insurance Co. He is a man of details. His reports are always replete with information. All committees reported in the morning and afternoon and at 5 o'clock the Grand Lodge had finished its volume of business representing in the neighborhood of a quarter million dollars and every fellow was on his way home. That's going some. I made it to Raleigh, found Mr. O'Kelley full of smiles waiting to take me down to sample a dinner cooked by his wife, returned to Raleigh at 11 o'clock, made it to Washington, D. C., spent the day in town and how I spent it I will let you know in my next. Left at 7 o'clock for Chicago and reached here at 2:40 the next day. Will bring my letter now to a stop. J. O. MIDNIGHT.
