Dawley, Jr. On St. Valentine's day in 1760 in Philadelphia, Pa., another slave of the 18th century was born that was destined to make his name a household word in the remotest parts of the world. He was not a soldier, not a statesman in its technical sense, not even a scholar according to the schools. He was a healer of men's bodies, a healer of men's souls, a lover of the despised and rejected. Such was Richard Allen. At an early age, he, his parents, and three brothers were sold from Philadelphia, Pa., into Delaware. Here their lot was hard. However at 17 Allen found peace to his soul. He joined the Methodist Church and was soon given permission to hold prayer and class meetings and at stated times to give exhortations to his fellow slaves in RT. REV. RICHARD The first Bishop of the African Methodist the immediate neighborhood. Sometime later Rev. Freeborn Garrison, a noted Methodist preacher delivered a sermon at Allen's master's house which so impressed the latter that he decided to dispose of his slaves and offered them the privilege of buying themselves. Allen lost no time in raising $2,000.00 to purchase himself and brother. He now in 1780 gave himself up to an arduous study of the Bible and traveling in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland, preached the gospel to his less fortunate brethren. In 1784 he was a spectator at the first Methodist General Conference sitting in Baltimore, Md. Philadelphia his native city, Allen made his home in 1786 and attended St. George M. E. church with a number of other Africans punctually. But their noisy demonstrations became an offense to the white communicants who, considering them a nuisance, demanded their removal to the gallery. One Sunday morning in 1787 the sexion stood at the door and directed the Africans to the gallery. While at prayer one of the trustees went to Absalom Jones and remarked: "You must not kneel here." Jones replied: Wait until after prayers are over and I will move." "No" said the trustee, "you must get up now or I'll call for aid and force you away." Thus when prayers were over all of the Africans marched out in a body resolving not to trouble those Christians any more with their presence. The Colored people then decided to purchase a church of their own. This determination met with strenuous opposition by some of the white members of St. George as well as members of their own race. The former threatened to disown the Africans. Allen replied: "If you turn me out otherwise than in accordance with the discipline, I will seek redress. "We are determined to seek out for ourselves the Lord being our helper. If you deny us the name Methodist, you cannot seal up the Scripture from us or deny us a name in heaven. We believe heaven is free for all who worship in spirit and truth. This was a trial I never had to pass through but I was confident --- The Kansas City Sun RDER for the Shadow EXQUISITE LINE RER adow of LINCOLN T than Mohammed when he fled from Mecca, he must, at least, be classed with Francis of Assisi, or Dominic, or Ignatius Loyata. But Mohammed secured his followers by the sword, Allen his by persuasion and his peculiar permeating influence divested of glamour and loud acclaim. His was the spirit of Mellanchthon rather than that of Luther; but his action on that eventful Sunday morning in St. George M. E. Church was no less dramatic than that of Luther before the Diet of Worms when he declared: "I cannot, I will not retract anything unless what I have within shall be shown to be contrary to Holy Scripture or to plain reason: for to act against conscience is neither safe or upright. I can do no otherwise; here I stand, so help me God. Amen!" BRUTAL MURDERER CAPTURED That murder will out was amply demonstrated last week when Officer Bush Wells a recent appointe on the police force placed under arrest James Ballard alias Bob Johnson for having murdered Rev. W. A. Campbell, pastor of Mt. Tabor A. M. E. church in this city and supervisor of the American Woodmen. Officer Wells who knows many of the crooks and underworld characters in this City kept his ears open to various conversations he heard and succeeded in getting a quiet tip relative to Ballard and another man by the name of Evans, alias Big Boy, but Evans was able to successfully convince the police that he knew nothing of the murder and was released; while after a course of "sweating" Ballard came through and confessed that he alone had murdered Rev. Campbell, as he believed him to carry a large sum of money. Ballard gave his residence as 1704 East 12th street. This was one of the most cold-blooded and unprovoked murders ever committed in this City and the relatives and friends of Rev. Campbell are insisting that the extreme penalty of the law, which is hanging, be assessed against the murderer. Officer Wells is receiving many compliments for his splendid capture and is demonstrating that the police commissioners made no mistake when they gave him an appointment on the force. The Sun is proud of Officer Wells and the rest of the Colored Police Officers who are making good in this City.

At a meeting of the Kansas City Medical Society last Tuesday evening, it was discussed and agreed upon by all the members that in view of the high cost of living, fees will be charged as follows: $3.00 for day calls and $5.00 for night calls; night calls hours to be from 10:00 o'clock p. m. to 6:00 o'clock a. m. A commendable act done by the society was the adoption of a resolution: that the Kansas City Medical Society go on record as disapproving after a thorough trial the writing of Narcotic prescriptions for drug addicts under the present system and also the pro-miscellious prescribing of alcohol. Sweet is all at der boheme --- that the great head of the Church would support us. $360.00 was raised on the first day's canvass by Richard Allen and Absalom Jones. Allen bought a lot near Lombard on 6th street. The committee agreed to purchase a lot on 5th street and left the other lot on Allen's hands. Nothing daunted, he exclaimed. "I would rather keep it myself than forfeit the agreement I have made. As I was the proposer for an African church I put the first spade into the ground to dig the cellar. The old blacksmith shop was made a temple in which to worship God. On canvassing the little society, it was found that a majority preferred joining the Church of England. But Allen was a Methodist and he visioned truly that the great majority of Colored people would be Methodists, a form of worship more suited to them than the restricted form of the Church of England. For had not even the Methodist desired to get rid of them for their shouting. What place in the service of the Church of England afforded them an opportunity to put in an amen not recorded in the prayer book. Thus was established the African church in 1787. In the same year Allen was licensed to preach, though he began preaching five years before. In 1793 while the yellow fever was raging in Philadelphia Allen rendered the afflicted untold service for which he was publicly thanked by Governor Clarkson. In 1784 Bishop Asbury of the M. E. church dedicated Bethel African Methodist church at the invitation of Allen, who became its first minister and served this growing congregation for more than twenty years. In 1799 Bishop Ashbury ordained Reverend Allen as deacon, the first Colored person to receive that distinction. But Colored people in New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland were having the same, if not worse religious troubles, as in Pennsylvania. Therefore in 1816 Richard Allen and others called a convention in Philadelphia to consider these difficulties and to better the moral and religious condition of the African free and slave. This assembly with representatives from the above states met in April 1816. Allen became the leading spirit because of his wise counsel, upright life and forceful courage. Thus after solemn prayer and much religious deliberations the African Methodist Episcopal church was duly established after its white model and Richard Allen was consecrated its first Bishop, Bishop Richard Allen guided this spiritual educational and ecclesiastical organization for 15 years until March 26, 1831 when he was gathered to his fathers in Philadelphia. He was survived by his faithful helpful and devoted wife Sarah a number of years. As slave, as minister, as bishop Richard Allen always kept his word. It was upon this rock that the A. M. E. church was built. Allen was a religious leader, rare, effective, yet unobtrusive. If Allen cannot be compared with Mohammed, and he had more followers when he left St. George KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14 1920. OFFICER BUSH WELLS. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. Mrs. B. F.

NEGRO RISES TO TOP OF MEDICAL CALLING IN K. C. 17 Years Ago Dr. Gideon Brown Had His Diploma—and a Job as Coachman Seventeen years ago a negro boy with a college diploma came to Kansas City to earn a living. Phil Chapel, 1826 Henderson avenue, in want of a coachman, speculated on that diploma as an evidence of worth and made Gideon W. Brown ruler over his cow, the carriage house and a team of horses. Two years of "coaching" was sandwiched in between the four-year college course at Macon City and a four-year medical course at Howard university, Washington, D.C., and today, Dr. Gideon Brown draws lines over 18,000 fraternity organized negroes in Missouri, more than 3,000 of them in Kansas City, and his medical and surgical practice at his office, 800 Independence avenue has ingratiated him into the hearts and confidence of others beside those of his own race. The city has made him a surgeon at the old city hospital, the Kansas City Railways Company has entrusted him with their negro cases and he is second surgeon at a private hospital. The man who accepted that college country boy as his coachman, recognizing in him energy and a willingness to keep clean, was justified in saying, "I will help you." Washington saw him for four years and New York during his summer vacations, where always there were interested men willing to give a boost to a negro boy studying medicine. But his home saw him no more until he came back to Kansas City to practice and married Miss Edmonia Hubbel, a songstress. How he advanced to the influential place he holds among the negroes of Missouri involves recognition of a mutual association providing orphan, burial and aged benefits. This is the "United Brothers of Friendship," a men's organization with a woman's auxiliary called the "Sisters of the Mysterious Ten." Of all the states, only Texas has more of these members than Missouri, where Dr. Gideon Brown is grand master, seated in Kansas City. Including an orphan home, the lodge owns $25,000 worth of property; has cash on hand of $20,000; paid out last year $42,000, and in war time loaned the government $14,000 in the shape of Liberty bonds. So dreams of wide success have come true for the negro farm boy, who started life plowing corn on the farms of Charles Lincoln at Mecca, Mo. while one of Mr. Lincoln's daughters, later Mrs. Willis Wood, was growing up in the same "worth while atmosphere."—The Kansas City Journal.

GOLDEN TEXT—The same Lord over all in his hand unto all that call upon him—Rom. 10:12 ADDITIONAL MATERIAL—Acts 15. 1-15. Gal. 21:21. PRIMARY TOPIC—God's Love for everybody. NORR TOPIC—Peter Wins a Roman Captain. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC The Overcoming of Prejudice The Overcoming of Prejudice. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Significance of the Conversion of Cornellus. The conversion of Cornellus broke down the "middle wall of partition" between the Jews and Gentiles (Eph. 2:4). 1. Cornellus (vv. 1, 2). 1. His official position (v. 1). He was a Roman officer over a company of 100 soldiers, perhaps of about the same rank as a captain in the American army. 2. His character (v. 2). (1) A devout, pious man. His heart was filled with godly fear. (2) He was a praying man; he observed the Jewish hour of prayer. (3) He was charitable; he gave much alms. (4) He was respected by his family. The Lord chose Cornellus for the transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles because of his character and position. No Jew could find any fault with him. He was a good man, but not a saved man. II. The Supernatural Preparation for the Transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles (vv. 3:33). 1. Two visions were given. (1) The vision of Cornelius (vv. 3-8). While engaged in prayer an angel of God instructed him to send to Joppa for Peter, who would tell him what to do. The angel told him that Peter lodged with Simon, a tanner, to show Cornelius that Peter was not the strictest Jew. The calling of a tanner was regarded as unclean by the strict Jews, and the tanners were commanded to dwell apart. "Cornelius sent at once for Peter. He was living up to the best light he had, so he received more. (2) The vision of Peter (vv. 9-10). This took place while Peter was praying (v. 9). If one would receive visions from God, let him pray to God; for the heavens are open to those who pray. He saw a certain vessel containing clear and unclean animals let down from heaven, and heard the command: "Rise, Peter; kill, and eat." Peter protested that he had never eaten any unclean thing. God replied: "What God hath clenssed, call not thou common." This vessel let down from heaven and taken back indicated that both Jew and Gentle were accepted on high. 2. Messengers from Cornelius (vv. 17-22). Peter was greatly perplexed over what he had seen, but not for long; for messengers from Cornelius made inquiry at the gate for him. The spirit informed Peter of the matter and bade him go, nothing doubting. 3. The meeting of Cornelius and Peter (vv. 23-24). (1) Peter took six witnesses along (v. 23). He had the good judgment to know that on a matter of so great importance he must have witnesses. This was proved at the Jerusalem council in the consideration of the question of the reception of the Gentiles into the church (11:1-18). (2) Cornelius waiting for Peter (vv. 24). He called together his kinsmen and near friends. (3) Cornelius about to worship Peter (vv. 25, 28). Peter repudiated this act and protested that he was but a man. The true man of God not only dislikes, but refuses to be worshiped. (4) The reciprocal explanation (vv. 27-33). Peter explained to him how God had taken from him his Jewish prejudice and asked that Cornelius state the purpose of his having sent for him. Cornelius explained how God had appeared unto him and instructed him to send for Peter. III. Peter's Sermon (vv. 34-43). III. Peter's Sermon (vv. 34-43). 1. The introduction (vv. 34, 35). He showed that God is no respecter of persons, but that in every nation those who fear God and work righteousness are accepted of him. 2. The discourse (vv. 36-43). In the discourse he touches briefly upon the mission of Jesus, showing that by means of his baptism and anointing with the Holy Spirit he was qualified for his work as mediator. He then exhibited the work of Christ (1) in his life (vv. 36-39). (2) In his death (v. 39). (3) In his resurrection (vv. 40, 41). IV. The Holy Spirit Poured Out (vv. 44-48).

After a general discussion critics report was given by Mrs. Sallie Rogers. Those who were not in attendance missed a most enjoyable afternoon. THE NEW LINCOLN THEATRE The new Lincoln theatre just being completed at 18th street and Lydia avenue can be described in three words: beautiful, exquisite and grand and to be appreciated it must be seen. This theatre will open Sunday afternoon February 22nd at 2:00 p. clock and is the most elegant of its kind in the west, having a seating capacity of more than fifteen hundred and costing $125,000.00. The Negroes of greater Kansas City should show their appreciation to the management for this large expenditure for their amusement by taxing the capacity of this theatre every night. The Lincoln orchestra composed of Colored artists will furnish the musical program. In commenting on the invitation to the Negro to settle in France and Brazil, the Baltimore Afro-American has this to say: "If anything Brazil's offer is more attractive than the offer of the French. The South American Republic declares that it will pay the steamship fare of immigrants who will take up farms in that country. Brazilians speak Spanish and the French people French; so the Colored American who hopes to settle in either country faces the difficulty of learning a new language. This difficulty is not great." How long, Brother Murphy, have the Brazilians been speaking Spanish, seeing that it is the one South American country settled by the Portuguese? But the stalwart Afro-American is not the only great paper to get misled on its geography; for the Des Moines Register, according to a local daily, reporting the recent student volunteer meeting, made Rev. Isaac Steady Jr.'s home in Sierra Leone Liberia. That is like putting Iowa in Missouri. Sierra Leone is a dependency of Great Britain and distinct from the adjacent to Liberia, the only Republic in Africa. Negro farmers in the United States do not seem to be complaining. It is the man of the city that feels his freedom restricted, so that to him the French offer is the more attractive. Great men have been produced through Negro mothers and French fathers. Now because of the decimation of the recent war, the French wish to reverse and show what French ideals can effect with Negro fathers and French mothers. WHY A LARGE NUMBER OF CASH TICKETS WERE SOLD THREE WEEKS BEFORE THE DATE, FOR "UNDER THE SHADOW OF A CRIME," AUDITORI UM THEATER, FEBRU Because the public having been entertained and well pleased on three different occasions by well trained and evenly poised local casts in high class dramas at the Auditorium Theater presented by Mrs. W. T. Osborne and each drama growing more interesting and the crowds larger and larger. When he announcement was made that, Mrs. Osborne would present our home talent for the fourth time knowing that it would be something worth while, and a credit to the young people of this city and Mrs. Osborn as well, tickets have been purchased, yes, by the hundreds, even three weeks before the date in order to secure good seats. No demonstration could be more commendable. Mrs. Osborne established herself in Kansas City as a woman capable of doing things when she planned and lead to success, with the progressive women of the two Kansas Cities, that wonderful demonstration and exhibit at the 300th Anniversary at Convention Hall. She knows no discouragement but puts into effect with east her gigantic undertakings. "Under the Shadow of a Crime," at the Auditorium Friday evening, is a masterpiece, and will be masterly handled by a well trained cast. Behind this hue and cry of Boss control are sinister motives which are known to only a select few of the grasping capitalists of this City. Why should the Republicans be raging a bitter fight at the dictation of the Kansas City, Star within its ranks when there is not a constable, justice of the peace, Judge or County Official in all Jackson County belonging to the Republican party? And yet the vindictive Star is yelling "Down with the Bosses." An outsider would like to know if you've got bosses, what do they boss? Little Corner THEY SAY —That the man who thinks he's the whole works seldom is. —That one gentle hint is oftimes worth more than a ton of advice. —That people seldom appreciate good advice unless they have to pay for it. —That a close student of human nature seldom lends money to his friends. —That it's much easier to gossip about people than it is to pray for them. Amen. —That knowledge gets in the way of wisdom when it leads to the neglect of intellect. —That a whole lot of men who are "fussing" about the price of meat, never bought any when it was cheap. —That a good many people who made resolutions on New Year's day have broken them already. Well such is human nature. —That it will be several days before the sun shines on both sides of the street, so don't turn loose the overcoat. —That there are few girls would refuse to share your lot young men if your lot happened to be worth one thousand dollars a front foot. —That if women were on the fire department there always would be a big crowd of men attend the fires to see the exhibition of hosiery.

To my many Kansas City patrons and friends: I wish to thank all of my former patrons and friends for their liberal patronage during my practice in Kansas City. Here in the City of Chicago, in the Avenue Theatre building, 31st and Indiana avenue, associated with Dr. Park Tancil of Washington we have opened the largest, best equipped and most sanitary office to be found any where in our group in this country. The like of the same has yet to be constructed among the whites in Kansas City and they have many beautiful offices. To be appreciated it really must be seen, therefore I as well as Dr. Tancil extend to you an invitation of welcome when you are in Chicago. T. C. CHAPMAN, Doctor of Dental Surgery. Addison C.

WILSON'S MISSILES By Ona B. Wilson. "First, to thine own self be true; and it follows as the night the day, thou can not then be false to any man." Hundreds of persons are going daily like Diogenes looking for an honest one. The fault does not lie in the search but in the searcher. Truly has it been said "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he." We as a rule judge or measure everybody by our bushel. If I am true to myself I first acknowledge my relationship to God, then the duty that He requires of me. He has told me to treat others as I would have them treat me. Now no one wants another to call them dishonest, no one wants to be talked of disrespectfully no one wants strife, opposition and malice heaped upon them, no one wants the minds and hearts of people poisoned against them unjustly; last but not least no one wants discourtesy practiced on them in their homes or abroad. Yet if I do not want these things done to me, I will not do them to others. TONIGHT. Hear Miss Sirilda Belva Spiceri Dramatic Reader at St. James' Church 1809 Woodland Avenue, Friday, February 13.

Diggs, we realize that God knoweth best and doeth all things well. Yet we are at a loss to know why such a noble character should be taken away in the prime of life. We, the members of The Reliable Men's Club, loved him dearly, and are aware of the fact that we can get someone to fill his place as secretary of the Club, but it will be impossible to find anyone to fill his place in our hearts and memories. Although he died here away from home, he died among friends who loved him as a brother and would have done anything to relieve him of his pain. We mourn with you, the family and relatives, in this hour of bereavement and extend to you our heartfelt sympathy. "Our Loss is Heaven's Gain." Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be filed in the Club's records and a copy sent to the bereaved family. Be it further resolved that a copy be given to The Kansas City Sun for publication. Respectfully submitted, ROBERT ARMSTRONG, Pres. HARRY D. JOHNSON, Sec'y. WATCH IT GROW. CONGRATULATIONS to the Kansas City Sun. Lest you forget, in my judgment this is the greatest Negro paper West of the Mississippi River. After reading all of the Negro papers edited by Colored men, I think the Editor of The Sun rises above them all. In the eight years of the present Editor the paper has doubled itself. It is 160 per cent better today than it was one year ago and I attribute it to the generous management, cordial dealing and above all in refraining from throwing mud. Long live the K. C. Sun to speak the truth. The truth will make you whole and in the near future the present space of accommodation will be inadequate. Stand up, stand up for the race and God will smile his benediction upon you. M. C. JONES. 1519 Garfield. During the last few months I suppose that a hundred different people have come up to me at various times and said: "Say Hubbell I notice you're driving an Aero-Eight. How did you happen to determine on buying it?" And to each of them I have given the same answer: "Because I think it is the greatest stock car—bar none—that is built in America today! I did not buy my Aero-eight by mere chance. The Aero-Eight was no stranger to me. It struck my fancy the moment I saw the first one, five years ago. The light weight of the Aero-Eight, the splendid balance, the ease with which it rides and drives, the wealth of power, the quick pick-up are not to be compared with."
