NEW YORK'S NEGRO ALDERMAN.
(Brooklyn, N. Y., Citizen.)
One of the first political results of the hegira of Southern Negroes to this city which has been going on for a decade is seen in the election on Tuesday of two Colored Americans to represent Harlem districts in the Board of Aldermen. This is the first time that the city has sent Colored men to the municipal council.
The district in Harlem extending from about 130th street to 137th street, of which Lenox Avenue is the boulevard, is densely populated by Negroes. It is an apartment house and brownstone district and rents are high. In nominating the Negroes the Republican Leaders were controlled by their interest in the Negro vote, and as this will be a continuing motive, with them, it is probable that more nominations of the same kind will be made in the early future. To which we add THERE IS POWER IN POLITICS AND what we need is power and yet more power.
MARY ROSS DORSEY
Mme. Mary Ross Dorsey, of Cambridge, Mass., only colored graduate of the Garland School of Boston. She was a pupil of the famous reader Florence Clare Gale. Mme. Dorsey comes highly recommended as the leading elocutionist of the race to day, and has successfully appeared before large audiences on her west ern tour. In the East, where she is well known, her recitals are largely attended by millionaires and their families and other people who appreciate her high art. Mme. Dorsey will present "EVERYWOMAN" at Lincoln High School in which she portrays the characters of twelve different people. Failure to hear Mme. Dorsey is to miss a treat of a life-time. Lincoln High should be completely packed on Friday evening, December 19 to hear this noted race woman.

Farm Boy Gave "Fireman" $4 and a Watch to Buy Uniform.
In the glow of a street lamp F. D. Blocker, a young Missouri farmer, stood last night searching the want ads. He needed a job. A jaunty Negro, exuding affluence, approached.
"Watcha lookin' fo', white man "
"Job."
"Now ain't that luck. Ah'm fohman of the Red Caps at the Union Station and they all done went and struck. And heash's me without anybody to pay two hundred dollars a month to. Come on."
They walked to Twenty-second St. and Grand avenue, where the dark skinned one stood a moment in thought.
"You got a uniform?" he asked Blocker, who replied in the negative.
"Ah'll get you a second hand one foah a ten spot."
Blocker had only $4 and his gold watch. He offered these for the uniform and the Negro agreed to meet him in the Union Station an hour later.
The police have not found either the Negro. Blocker's $4, or his gold watch.

Conway, Ark.—Frank Price, a Negro minister living about three miles south of Conway, is in jail for alleged illegal manufacture of intoxicants. Price was surprised late Thursday when Sheriff W. M. Brady and Deputy J. I. Summers called quite unexpectedly. Price had five pints of fresh "goods" on his premises ready for consumption. It was of the corn variety and pungent with its cheerful smell.

HE LIKED HIS CABBAGE WITH 'TATERS' AND SO—
Dispute With Bride Over Cooking Results in Wife Attempting Suicide.
The puent odor of cooking cabbage wafted its way to the nostrils of John Mitchell, Negro, living at 1811 Oak street, yesterday afternoon. John arose hastily from his chair and entered the kitchen where his young wife, Mrs. Margaret Mitchell, was boiling cabbage for the evening meal. Near the kettle of boiling cabbage, a pot of potatoes simmered on the coal range.
"Margie," wrathfully began John, "why don't you put them taters in with that cabbage an' let 'em cook together. I done told you last time we had cabbage that I liked my cabbage with taters."
"I'm the cook at this here house, an' I'll cook cabbage the way I wants to," replied Mrs. Mitchell with equal hauteur. "I aint askin' you all to come out in this kitchen an' tell me how to cook. Go on back in and read your paper.
At this John became extremely choleric and struck his spouse with a handy skillet.
"That's the last time you'll ever hit me, John Mitchell," shrieked the swathed bride. "I'm a goin' to kill myself."
Mrs. Mitchell rushed into the bathroom and before she could be prevented by her husband, drank a half pint of wood alcohol. Dr. George Cummings arrived in the General hospital ambulance in time to pump the alcohol out of Mrs. Mitchell's stomach before it did much harm.
"I never meant to cause all this rumpus," remarked John, as the ambulance left his house, "but I do like my cabbage with taters."—Sunday Journal.

New Era District B. Y. P. U. Executive Board held their first Quarterly meeting at Friendship Baptist church last Thursday. Mrs. Rosa C. Gipson President, outlined the work for the year. Mrs. A. L. Brown the corresponding Secretary read the Budget which was accepted and will be printed and sent to each union in the District. Mr. C. L. Drew, the Vice-President was appointed Chairman of the Committee for an entrainment to be given in next Quarter The session was well attended and inspiring remarks were made by the visitors.
Y. M. C. A.
It has been the general opinion of most of the friends and patrons of the Paseo Department of the Young Men's Christian Association that the institution has been self-supporting since the erection of its new building. This belief has entered the minds of many because the "Y" has not gone out for a financial campaign each year.
Many reasons could be given for this action on the part of the "Y" but we feel that the following reason is the beat: The Board of Directors of the Kansas City, Mo., Young Men's Christian Association felt that they should like to stand sponsor for the Paseo Department until it should be able to make itself felt in the community, and, each year since the erection of the building, have made up from their general fund whatever deficit the Paseo Department may have had. They have done this that we might know how anxious they are to have this department serve the community.
How well it has served may be judged by the great number of meetings that head up at the Association building; by the fact that for more than two years the dormitories have been crowded to capacity; and by the records of the daily attendance at the building. These facts have proved to them that the Colored people of Kansas City want the "Y." There remains one final test. Do they want it to the extent that they will, each year, subscribe to its maintenance? Our opinion is that they will if they know the need.
The need this year is $3,000 because of the increased cost of upkeep. Which means that they have paid higher prices for coal, gas, laundry, wages and materials used in the care of the building. A campaign for this amount will be launched Saturday night at a dinner for the ten teams and captains chosen to make this drive.
The present policy of the "Y" is to give any information that has to do with the welfare of the institution and they are anxious that the community at large might have the "Y" spirit and also have a part in the efforts it may make for good.
Mr. J. A. Johnson was quietly married to Miss Minnie Washington of Kansas City, Kas. November 15.

SPEEDING AUTO KILLS CHILD.
A speeding auto going North on Vine Street near 21th struck little Edward Lee Chase the five year old Colored child who was going to a store for his mother, threw him thirty feet, crushing his skull, killing him almost instantly. The daily Journal in its account of the tragedy said the car was driven by John Lucas, one of the most experienced skillful colored drivers in the City, while the Star said that the car was driven by a white man. At any rate the driver did not stop and on account of the street lights being out at the time of the accident, it has been impossible to find out to a certainty whose car killed the child. There is too much speeding on Vine Street anyhow and the business men on that thorafore should demand that the police commissioners occasionally send the motor cycle policemen out that street to pick up some of the reckless speedsters who make a race track out of that thorafore.
one of the most scholarly as well as most popular women that ever taught in the Kansas City Schools who voluntarily quit after twenty-five years of faithful service with a comfortable income derived from wise investments during her teaching days and is now enjoying herself at her modern and beautiful village in Monrovia, Calif., where she will continue to make her home.
Quarterly meeting was held at Zion A. M. E. Church Sunday with a large attendance expecting to meet the new Presiding Elder.....Rev. Long, Mr. Sewell, Mr. and Mrs. America Wilson spent Sunday in our city.....Miss Nina. Trent is in our city in the interest of her line of work.....Mrs. Eliza Davis is visiting her daughter, Mrs. W. M. Johnson.....Mrs. Mary E. Wright and Miss Rosa Carter of Kansas City filled the pulpit Sunday at the Baptist Church.....Quite a number of persons from Kansas City attended the Tutt-Parker wedding Tuesday.....Mr. Hub Hayden is stoll on the sick list.....A very simple but beautiful wedding was solemnized Tuesday, November 18, when Miss Edna Parker the daughter of Mr. George Parker became the wife of Mr. Edward Tutt. The bride was beautifully attired in white duchess satin and georgette crepe trimmed with beads and pearls. A few of the intimate friends were invited. The presents were many and valuable. The bride is one of our most beautiful, and accomplished young ladies. The groom may well congratulate himself in having been the fortunate one to obtain such a rare jewel. Our best wishes are that they may have a happy and prosperous life and the sun shine and smiles.
Mrs. Cynthia Cummings oldest sister of the late John Lange and the widow of Father Cummings, the first rector of St. Augustine's P. E. church of this city, died after a long illness last Friday evening and the funeral was held from St. Augustine's church Tuesday morning at 11:00 o'clock. Mrs. Cummings was always engaged during her lifetime in uplift work for the advancement of the race, had a pleasant smile for everyone and leaves a multitude of real friends who sincerely mourn her demise.

WE SHALL NOT BE DISMAYED.
Arise, black man! gird up your loins
What the night be dark?
And what the friends be few or none;
And none thy virtues mark?
It shall not evermore be thus:
Justice is but delayed
The listening ear may hear her tread
We shall not be dismayed.
The cup is bitter Yes. But drink
From us it cannot pass
'Twill only physic—twill not kill,
Give the power to surpass.
Thy loyalty hath been despised
Thy trust and faith betrayed?
Sport of the gods thou be yet—
We shall not be dismayed.
Outlawry rules thruout the land?
Mock justice is thy due?
A Christian nation turns deaf ears
Cause of thy swarthy hue?
From slavery's night since thou
emerged
In vain thou hast essayed?
'Rejoice and be exceeding glad'
We shall not be dismayed.
The vaunted melting pot rejects
The black man Yet with zest
Embraces Europe's scum and dregs'
Await the day of test!
There's garbage in that melting pot!
Dost see the fusion stayed?
Dost smell the nauseous odors rise?
We shall not be dismayed.
Thy lovely women are outraged?
Thy home despoiled by night
By whites who at the rise of sun,
Become virtuous, upright,
"Social equality" to crush
Command a mob blood swayed?
This lynching thing's a boomerang
We shall not be dismayed.
Caswell W. Crews.
'Thy countrymen compassion feel
For outraged Belgium—France?
And gasp in horror at the Hun
Yet heed not the wild dance
Of swarms of friends with hemp and
flame,
'Gainst one lone black arrayed?
Black man they cannot kill that soul
We shall not be dismayed.
With doubting and yet loyal heart
Thou sail'd the threatening main?
And Flander's poppies with thy blood
Blush forth a deeper stain,
Yet for that thou to others gave
Thyself in vain has prayed?
Twas so with Him of Nazareth
We shall not be dismayed.
It is Gethsemane today
And like Him sweating there
Sometimes we question whether God
Has vanished into air;
But down the ages Toussaint speaks,
That noble soul betrayed:
Whom God flights for, himself must
fight
The war is done and yet no peace
Comes to a troubled earth;
Confusions new and wild alarms
Each surging day gives birth;
Aghast? Why so? No wonder why
It was not right that swayed
The door for thee will yet swing wide
We shall not be dismayed
Ah! walk together, sable browed
East-West-North-South we're one
Traitor within nor foe without
Can stay thy rising sun,
Rejected by the builders—scorned,
Yet 'spite all hell arrayed,
Head of the corner shalt yet be
We shall not be dismayed

WASHINGTON, D. C.
By William H. Dawley, Jr.
Outside of the surely Negro communities Judge Robert H. Terrell stands unique and alone. Three Presidents have appointed him and the Senate has confirmed him five times in eighteen years notwithstanding he is a Republican and one of the President's was a Democrat and the Senate was twice Democratic.
In 1901 Attorneys Terrell and Hewlett were appointed with eight white men as civil magistrates. In 1905 Congress reduced these ten Justices of Peace to six and Judge Terrell was one of them. In 1905 the Peace Courts were abolished by Congress and five Municipal Courts were established with jurisdiction amounting to $500.00 and Judge Terrell was the only one of the originals retained.
These Courts do an enormous business, employing thirteen Deputy Marshalls, one chief and five assistant clerks with a salary of $1,200.00 each and pay the Judges $3,600.00. They are not only self supporting courts but the only courts that are so and annually turn a surplus of $5,000.00 into the treasury, where now they have $300,000.00 to their credit.
The repeated reappointment of Judge Terrell is due not a little to this unexamined economy as well as decisions that are not reversed. Congress has recently aranged to increase the deputy Marshalls from thirteen to fifteen, add two more clerks, raise the financial jurisdiction to $1,000.00 and allow a jury.
Judge Terell also enjoys the distinction of being the Senior Judge. He is product of the Washington schools and Harvard. He has held the position of teacher and Principal of the Washington High School, Chief clerk in the Auditor's office under Judge Lynch in the Harrison administration. Every inch of his six feet teems with an intense love of his race and especially in the uplift of the young men who never lack helpful advice and an encouraging word from him. The other day when your correspondent appeared he was showing an unlettered man of the race how to plead his own case and thus reduce legal expense.

CUTED FOR BRANKRY.
CITED FOR BRAVENY
New York, Nov. 25.—The record of the Colored men and women who were sent overcrases by the Young Men's Christian Association, who served as secretaries during the world war is dotted with brilliant bits of patriotic Christian achievement, courage, and self-abnegation. Like the colored soldiers, they went forth to do battle against the enemy until the last armored foe laid down his weapon of warfare.
The total number sent was eighty-four, sixty-one men and twenty-three women. Of this number two died on active service overseas and two died in this country. Frederick D. Ballou, of Richmond, Ky., and the Rev. R. A. Pritchett, of Philadelphia, who served with the forces in Africa were drowned at Dares-Salamah, in East Africa. The two men who died in the home service were the Rev. H. E. Levi, of Talladega, Ala., who died at Camp Wheeler and Hiram H. Wheeler, of Urbana, Ill., who died on forlough. The Y. M. C. A. and the Colored race have many times recorded their pride and satisfaction for the loyalty and efficient work done by the Colored secretaries.
Those cited for bravery were Ed ward Terrell Banks, of Dayton, Ohio, Hugh Oliver Cook, of Kansas City Mo., and M. W. Bullock, former Dartmouth football star.
Mr. Banks won his citation for bravery while serving the 368th Infantry of the 92nd Division. This Division received word that scout had been wounded and was lying helpless between the lines. Banks immediately set out to rescue the wounded man but in the attempt was caught by a terrific barrage and could not get back. With a determination to save his man Secretary Banks stayed with him through the night and brought him back the next morning when the firing was less severe and carried him to safety. For this he was recommended for a citation by Captain Smith, commanding Company K, of the 368th Infantry.

For several months Mr. H. A. Laden the tailor at 1605 E. 18th Street has been systematically robbed of the goods and merchandise of his customers until he was almost in despair. The most careful watching availed nothing in detecting the culprit until last Friday Mr. Laden was asked by one of his former employees to press a coat for him and in doing so he found a pawn ticket in the pockets which aroused his suspicion. He held the ticket and immediately went down to the place where the

BRITISH VIEW OF OUR GROUP
Associated Negro Press.
Writing from Washington under date of September 30, the correspondent of the London Times, considers the relation between whites and blacks in the United States. His article reads:
Another race riot, this time in Omaha, accentuates the fact that the United States is still far from finding a solution of what is when all is said and done the most difficult, though not immediately the most important, of her social problems. A good deal has been said in previous articles of the movement for the proper Americanization of citizens of alien blood. Things like the steel strike, which would not have come about had it not been for the inflammability of the foreign laborers in the mills, show that the movement is a much needed one. For the Negro question there is no such ultimate cure as yet visible. The descendants of the slaves of Colonial days and of the first era of independence, are already as much Americanized as they can be. One of the lessons of the present situation is that the farther upwards they move in the social scheme, the greater their discontent and the greater the prejudice against them of the whites with whom they compete.
It is the custom of the Negro to live in well defined quarters of the cities. Even in Washington, one finds whole streets given up to Colored people, tucked away in the midst of the best residential quarter. As the Negro crowds North the old Colored district becomes unable to hold him; he slops out in adjoining streets. His presence in them is resented, and there is bad blood. This bad blood is often aggravated by the white workman's jealousy of his new competitor. A crime against a white woman, or something of that sort, and the fat is in the fire. The war has also hardened the feeling of the Negro against the white He was sent in large numbers to France. He found in France no particular color line drawn against him. He was received as an ally and not as an inferior. It irks him to return to the inequalities of the home he went to fight for, to the "Jim Crow" laws of the Southern States that provide for him separate railway carriages and the various schemes, like the "Grandfather Clause," whereby some states confine the suffrage to those whose grandparents were free, in order to deprive him of the vote that was constitutionally given him after the Civil War. It irks him the more inasmuch as he is told by his organs in the Press that the American High Command tried to get the French to treat him as he was treated at home. Proud of his newfound sense of discipline, he is not deaf to propaganda against allowing himself to be exploited by the white race in times of crisis and then, when the crisis is over, to be put back into a position of recognized inferiority.
For many years past there have been two theories about the education of the American Negro. One idea has been to concentrate upon technical education, to bring him up to manual trades, and to encourage him to become a small farmer. The other idea has been to treat him as a white man, to give him a higher education. The latter policy has had considerable success. There have been Negroes high in the Federal service. There are good Colored doctors and lawyers; and there are many thousands of Negroes, probably, rich enough to own their own motors and that sort of thing. In New York, for instance, there is a most prosperous Colored community, living together in good streets and good houses, with its own theatres and all the other trappings of civilization.
But there is a reverse side to the shield. The intellectual Negro seems to take rather kindly to Socialism and organized agitation. Thus, one finds, besides the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, which has many white members, a number of purely colored organizations like the League of Democracy, an organization of colored soldiers afame with grievances against the white officers they had in France, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose program is to awaken class consciousness among the Negroes here and in Africa, and to knit together all the Colored races of the world, the National Association for the Organization of Labor Union among Negroes, the Hamill League of the World, the League of the Darker People of the World, and so on.
Nearly all such associations are extreme and run by young colored socialists, often aided and abetted by professional white extremists of the type that causes so much trouble among the alien proletariat. Some of them publish inflammatory organs like the Messenger of New York the Crisis of the same city or the Boston Guardian, whose editor, W. M. Trotter, a Harvard graduate, after a fruitless visit to the peace conference, later told the senate committee on foreign relations to look out for a race rising if the whites did not mend their ways. Even the Industrial Workers of the World have been getting recruits among the Negroes in the South, a fact which made the American Federa-
tion of Labor decide this year to countenance colored unions, much to the disgust of the southerners.
To this the white reply, as has been seen from the news of recent months, has too often been mob force. "Mob protection is the only protection of the white mans home," cried the other day the paper of a former senator of the United States, published in Mississippi in the course of an article calling on the "best and bravest" in the state to organize, "since there is no doubt that hell will be to pay in this country in the near future."
But, enough has been said to show how discontent, merging often into impertinence and sometimes criminal misbehavior on the one side, and sometimes rough intolerance on the other are exaggerating a problem already difficult. The process is deplored by the vast majority of sober whites and by many good, thoughtful Negroes. It is quite probable that the better sense of the nation will prevent its going so far as some profess to fear; but for the moment it is not the least troublesome feature of a general situation teeming with other problems of race amalgamation. Nor is it one the existence of which we can afford to overlook. There can be little doubt that the extremists would like to extend their propaganda to our possessions. Several of the most active agitators in New York and elsewhere are indeed, reported to be West Indians.

We talked so much together;

But how we miss her voice,
Can't we go to her up there,
I say we can, Oh Lord.

Dr. W. J. Wood, an expert in Mechano-Theraphy who has built up a wonderful practice in Tulsa, Okla., where he resides and who is reputed to have amassed a fortune of $50,000 during the past five years in the practice of his profession was a pleasant caller in company with the world famed Billy McClain, proprietor of one of the most elegant parlorors for the same treatment in this City at the sanctum sanctorum of the Sun and spent a pleasant half hour discussing reminiscences as well as possibilities of the future. Dr. Wood is a very scholarly and affable gentleman while Billy McClain is possibly the best known and most traveled representative the race has among its numbers in the theatrical and sporting world and it is needless to say that the moments passed swiftly but pleasantly during their brief stay.
A TIMELY APPEAL
As you are striving to "Lift as you climb," I appeal to you to devise some plan to induce Negro professional and business men to clean up and beautify their places of business. It is a poor example for a physician to preach sanitation and his own stairways, floors and windows covered with filth, dust and dirt. To pass some of the business houses, cafes and picture shows one must wade through seas of fifth and spit. Then the loud talking and boisterous conduct on the cars. Won't you think this over and get the ministers and press to wake up to this neglected phase of our life.
Sincerely,
W. CARROLL
LABORS GREATEST ASSET.
Associated Negro Press
(Baltimore, Md., Manufact. Record.) Several years ago the Manufacturers Record published the views of a large number of contractors on public work, railroad construction and kindred activities as to the relative value in their opinion of the Negro laborers of the South as compared with the lower classes of foreign labor largely engaged in similar work in other parts of the country. With scarcely an exception, the many contractors who replied to our inquiry, many of them having had experience with all class of labor, were enthusiastic in their commendation of the Negro labor for this class of work over foreign labor. They stressed the value to the South in having such an abundant supply of labor which could do better work and do it with less friction and fewer strikes than the foreigners so largely employed in the North and West. They regarded the Negro labor of the South as a definite asset of great value to this section in contrast with foreign labor in other parts of the country, as a rather dangerous liability to those sections.
"THE SMARTER SET" AT AUDI

"The Smarter Set," acknowledged the best of all colored organizations traveling, and headed by the well known comedians Salem Tutt, Whitney and J. Homer Tutt, are headed this way, and will begin an engagement at the Auditorium (for two weeks Sunday December 21st, with matinee Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday, and special matinee on Xmas and New Year's day.
This popular organization can boast of more singers, dancers and comedians now before the public, and are presenting a new musical comedy entitled "The Children of The Sun" which is adapted from the historical book of the same title by Geo. Wells Parker, and is said to be the last word in modern amusement, and one destined to prove a veritable poy to local theatre-goers, who are after the up-to-date and wholesome entertainment. The company is composed of artists who have been selected for their particular parts, and who can be depended to provide endless fun and merriment. There is not a dull moment throughout the whole play of "The Children of The Sun" which contains many unique features, surprises and novelties. In the way of scenic investiture, the production is also well equipped and in fact every department calculated to please the most fastidious.

—That if Kansas City is free from lawlessness than any other large city then life must be worth living in the others.
—That the reason a woman can't keep a secret, she's afraid somebody else will tell it before she gets a chance to do so.

You are mistaken absolutely. Don't excuse yourself with the insane argument that your case is different. It is identical to thousands of cases right here in Kansas City.

THE HAND OF KINDNESS.
By Chas, P. Wilson, Jefferson City, Mo.
Little Sam way down in Southland,
With forty nickels in his hand,
Paused before the market door,
Watched the turkeys all galore.
Those fowls now are in demand,
Believe me they are lookin' grand,
My money is short, but here I go.
"Mr. Market-man" listen to my tale of woe.
You see my Ma is certainly "some cook."
I thought of that when I took the first look.
Just before Thanksgiving' night.
She polished all the pots and pans up bright
We never experienced a Thanksgiving blue,
I know Ma's waitin' to see what I'll do.
I can't disappoint that good old soul.
You have my story so "get me told."
Now Sam you sure can sing some "Blues,"
You talk afellow right out of his shoes.
Your gift of gab is not exactly now.
But somehow it sounds just about true.
Your mother, doubtless old and gray,
Her ardent wish you must obey.
You say you have forty nickels to spend.
Keep your money, son, there's a big fat hen.

LINCOLN HIGH 13, WESTERN U. 3.
Lincoln High Football Team met her old rival at Association Park Friday November 21st. The student bodies, cadet bands and supporters of both teams were on hand to show their loyalty to their favorite team. From the time that Western U. kicked off to Lincoln, the game was never in doubt. The old gold and blue linesmen opened up gaping holes in the college boys defense through which the fast and speedy Lincoln backs would charge. Taylor would hit Western's line at the rate of five to ten yards a clip. Perty on Lincoln's famous circle play would reel off three and four yards before being downed.
Lincoln was the first to score in the initial quarter when the elusive "Mike" Hicks behind superb interference circled Western's right and for twenty yards and a touch down. Capt Smith kicked the goal. In the

Then the artist, a lady somewhat above middle age, said to your correspondent as he approached for a better view: "You may not know that these worshippers are adoring the divine spirit that is supposed to abide in this bull." I may have told her that I thought that he was a prize Hereford bull that attendants were leading to a pond to get a drink after the ribbon had been pinned on him; but I didn't. She continued: "This and Brook's Pastoral Visit are the most famous in this room." I expressed regret that American Negro life was so conspicuous for its absence in so famous a gallery seeing that it was so full of European peasant scenes. She concurred stating that she was a Georgian, reared by a Colored Mammy whom she loved next after her mother, while she deplored one man owning and selling another on her father's plantation, there was happiness and contentment. His children were taught to respect Colored people. It was a matter of great concern to her that those happy scenes were not reproduced. She told of the strivings of the artist Brooke and demonstrated that for its innate fitness, her race was chosen and given from the beginning dominion over the world which it would always hold; that they were descended from the Jews. I ventured to remark that the Jews were slaves to the very people whose daughter's picture she was reproducing before her own ancestors had discarded their garments of skins of wild animals. She exclaimed: "Are you a minister? You may know more about the Scriptures than I. But to say everything would be all right if people did not mix. If they would only stay to themselves and develop from within." "The Japanese," I replied strenuously tried that but our own Admiral Perry about 60 years ago backed by our government persuaded them somewhat forcibly to give up their hermit-like seclusion and to admit among them western peoples and ideas." She adroitly switched to the Chinese showing that their civilization was older and superior to the Japanese. Seeing that she was friendly disposed to the Negro because of the gathering of a crowd to note the dialogue, your correspondent made no further attempt to correct her history but left this splendid artist with her thoughts and her art.
Our next article will be an interview with the interesting, popular and unique Judge Robt, H. Terrell of the Municipal Court of the D. C.
