What Will Satisfy Professor Professor W. T. Vernon was in Topeka last week to see Governor Stubbs to get his former position as president of the Western University. He resigned in June to continue as Registrar of the Treasurer President Taft, through Bishop Grant and the Kansas delegation was asked to reappoint him at the solicitation of the registrar, which was done. The trustees had made arrangements for the election of another but Prof. Vernon changed again. Now what his friends want to know is he now contented as there are others who would like to be the Register or the president of the school. We are sorry he changed. The colored people of the West were proud to have a man in Washing ton holding down a four thousand dollar a year job; especially from Kansas, and we wanted him to stay there and grow stronger in the hearts of nation. We guess the school is glad to get him back and he is gald to get back, of course. He assisted in building the school and naturally wanted to stay with it—Topeka Plaindealer. We are glad if he has changed as he is the man to make W. U. the second to none. We note in the Topeka Plain-dealer that Prof. W. T. Vernon has reconsidered his resignation from the presidency of Western University or is about to do so. We verily believe that Doctor Vernon as president of the great and growing school which he has made, will add greater lusture to his career than to be housed up in the treasury department for four more years. He has served four years with singular ability, the honor is his and his friends have seen him make good and the president over all opposition stands ready to reappoint him, but we believe that if he declines and takes the Western University in preference that he will make no mistake, as a man of Dr. Vernon's calibre is needed at all times at this splendid institution. The coming fall campaign will not appeal very forcibly to the thinking members of our race in the bailiwick unless there is quite a change in the very nature of things political They do not think that they have been treated right by the very ones who have profited by their support, and there are at least a respectable number who in the future must be shown. YOUNG VIOLINIST OF RARE TALENT Clarence C. White Masters King of Musical Instruments. WINS HOCKLEY SCHOLARSHIP Pupil of English and Russian Instructors Who Began the Study of the Violin In Washington Regarded as the Most Finished Artist the Race Has Produced. By OLIVER RANDOLPH "Mr. White is the finest interpreter of my violin compositions in America." Thus wrote S. Coleridge-Taylor, the great Anglo-African composer of London, concerning Clarence Cameron White, one of the most brilliant violinists that the race has yet produced. Mr. White began the study of the violin when a mere boy in the city of Washington. He showed such musical ability that he was sent to Oberlin Conservatory of Music, Oberlin, O. There young White won his spurs, being made first violin in the conservatory orchestra, which was composed of sixty players. But his musical education was not to stop with the four years spent at Oberlin. Although he had acquired great ability and was recognized as a most excellent performer on the violin, Mr White, with the soul of the true artist burning within him, determined to go to Europe and study the violin under the masters of the old world. In 1906 he went to London and studied orchestration under Herbert A Harrison, one of England's great orchestral conductors. He returned to America in the fall of that year and won the first Hockley scholarship for study abroad. For the second time young Clarence Cameron White crossed the ocean for the purpose of studying that "king of instruments, the violin." He became a private pupil in London of M. Zachrewitsch, the great Russian Copyright by Scurlock. CLARENCE C. WHITE. violinist. He also studied composition under S. Coleridge-Taylor. Mr. Coleridge-Taylor manifested much interest in Mr. White and was instrumental in getting the eminent Russian as his teacher of the violin. Greater orchestral honors came to him when he went abroad, for he was made first violin in the celebrated String Players' club, which is said to be the finest string orchestra in London. His great concert tour was in 1906, when he appeared in over fifty concerts through the west and south. When S. Coleridge-Taylor came to the United States on two occasions Clarence Cameron White was the violin soloist for him in his concerts. Mr. White has appeared before distinguished citizens in America and before critical audiences in England and Spain. He enjoys the distinction of being the first to play some of Coleridge-Taylor's compositions for American audiences. Beginning next fall Mr. White will make a great concert tour, playing at a hundred concerts and filling engagements in the south and as far west as the Pacific coast. He uses in all of his concerts a Maggini violin, valued at $500. Clarence Cameron White is a composer of ability and of much industry. He has in preparation an opera and a number of miscellaneous compositions, written while he was abroad. A comic opera written by him was produced with great success in Washington in 1907. This young musician, scarcely thirty years of age, is now regarded as a violinist of the very first rank. He is studious and full of energy, industry and ambition. With all these he is possessed of a charming personality and most pleasing manners. and her charming wife, who was formerly Miss Beatrice Warwick is a plumette of rare ability and takes much pride in furthering her husband's musical plans. She accompanies him in many of his concerts. They have two interesting boys-William, aged four, and Clarence junior, aged two. They are growing up in a home surrounded and permeated with musical environments. if the church did its duty New Buildings For Man The Manassas (Va.) Inc is rapidly becoming an center.

Colonel Goethals, engineer in charge of construction work in the Panama canal zone, is doing a great work for humanity aside from his many duties as a government official. He has established in connection with the schools for colored children experimental gardens for raising vegetables and fruit. The new venture has proved to be very successful. Up to the present time produce to the value of $200 has been raised. The girls have shown as much interest as the boys, and the work has been so beneficial to the pupils and so cheaply maintained that it is expected four or five more gardens will be started soon. The work is done by children from six to twelve years old, and they are allowed to take the produce home. The work is under the supervision of a graduate of the agricultural college of Kingston, Jamaica. GOOD MEN PUT ON DUTY. No Complaint Against Negro Census Enumerators, Says Nagel. From all sections of the country where Negro census enumerators were employed comes the good news that they maintained a high degree of efficiency in their work. Director Durand says he has heard no complaint about their work. They were sent after passing satisfactory examinations. Thus, he said, a good class of men were put on duty. The total number of enumerators employed in taking the present census is 55,000. Of this number 1,605 are Negroes; 1,295 of the 1,605 were assigned to duty in the southern states. Figures are not available to show the increase in the number of Negro enumerators for the thirteenth census over those employed in the census taken ten years ago. Officials, however, express the belief that the increase was considerable and point to the fact that South Carolina alone had 113 colored enumerators, while ten years ago it had none. ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED AT LINEN SHOWER SOCIAL Mr. and Mrs. Robert J. Booker Break the News of Their Daughter's Betrothal at Social Gathering. At a linen shower social recently held at 1065 St. Marks avenue, Brooklyn, Mr. and Mrs. Robert J. Booker announced the engagement of their daughter Ruby K. to Mr. Clarence E. Lucas. The wedding will take place in the early part of the summer. The contracting parties are both Brooklynites and are well known in the social, religious and educational circles of the city. The bride elect is a product of the grammar and high schools and a graduate of the commercial department of the Young Women's Christian association. The groom is a graduate of the boys' high school and is at present pursuing a law course at Howard university. Washington. The linen shower was directed by Miss Esther Bradley and Mrs. Bertha Hicks. A large number of young people attended the social and heard the announcement of Miss Booker's engagement with joyful surprise. Master Royal Booker presided at the piano and furnished some lively music. Vocal music and the various games were also indulged in throughout the evening. Light refreshments were served, and the guests departed wishing Miss Booker all kinds of good fortune. Missionary Alliance Convention. Pittsburgh branch No. 2 of the Christian and Missionary alliance began its fifteenth annual summer convention at the chapel, 1538 Wylie avenue, Pittsburg, on Sunday, June 12. The convention will be in session until Tuesday, the 25th. Among the speakers are such well known Christian workers as the Rev. E. M. Collette of Charlotte, N. C.; the Rev. G. Verner Brown, Wilmington, Del.; the Rev. H. M. Shuman, Washington, Pa.; Mrs. W. O. Bowles, Mrs. Rosa Johnson, Cleveland, O.; the Rev. C. Cox, Butler, Pa.; Mrs. B. H. Smoot, Cleveland, O., and the Rev. Isaac Williams, Pittsburg. Missionaries Needed in New Jersey. The recent quarterly conference of the colored Presbyterian pastors of New Jersey, which met in Paterson, was highly interesting. The address of the Rev. Charles H. Trusty of Jersey City revealed some startling information. His subject was "The Spiritual Condition of the Colored People." In the course of his address Dr. Trusty said "there are 70,000 of our people in the state of New Jersey without any religion at all" and that vice and crime among them might be minimized through the assistance of the church if the church did its duty. New Buildings For Manassas School. The Manassas (Va.) Industrial school is rapidly becoming an educational center. The cornerstone of three new buildings was recently laid which will cost $50,000. The new structures are the trades building, at a cost of $80,000; the Berwind hospital, at a cost of $15,000, and a new wing to Howland hall, at a cost of $3,000. Other improvements contemplated will make up the remainder of the $50,000 gift recently made by Andrew Carnegie and others. SOUTH AFRICAN AFFAIRS. Future May Reveal Great Leader Among Native Dark Races. Among Native Dark Races. The chamber of mines at Johannesburg, South Africa, gave a farewell banquet recently to Lord Selborne, which, we are informed, was attended by a thoroughly representative gathering. The retiring high commissioner took advantage of the occasion to give utterance to some words exceedingly appropriate and very much needed. He began by expressing his desire to say a few words about the colored people—not the natives, but people of partly white and partly black origin. All, he observed, lay the greatest stress on the superiority and responsibility of the whites, and with that he sympathized. But he differed from the prevailing tendency to lay all the stress on the black side of colored people. The colored people, he went on to point, vary in character exactly as much as in external appearance, and he professed his belief that the tendency to drive the colored people down to the position of Kaffirs was both unjust and unwise—unjust, he explained, because the colored people often have the thoughts and feelings of the white man, and unwise because one day we might have to face a great concerted movement of native races. In that event the high commissioner went on to prophesy that they might find the leader of the native races to be a colored man with the feelings, character and superiority of the white man. Except where the colored people manifestly adopt the habits and conditions of the natives, in his opinion, they ought to be led up to a condition in which they can receive the treatment accorded to the white man. This is excellent so far as it goes, and we trust that it may make some impression upon the white people in South Africa. It is as far perhaps as Lord Selborne could go, considering the present temper of the whites. INDEPENDENCE DAY ORATION. Boston's Mayor Selects Former De- department Commander Wolff. Grand Army men in Boston and vicinity are looking forward to Independence day this year with greater interest than ever in so far as the public literary exercises are concerned. The cause for this newly awakened anticipation arises from the fact that Mayor Fitzgerald has appointed former Department Commander James H. Wolff to the orator of the day. The exercises will be held in historic old Faneuil hall. Commander Wolff is one of the most widely known Afro-American veterans of the civil war in the state. His voice has been heard on many patriotic occasions. But this will be the first time that one of our race has been selected by the chief city official to deliver the Independence day oration. WILLIAM D. CRUM GETS LIBERIAN APPOINTMENT. Taft Nominates the Ex-Collector as Minister Resident and Consul General at Monrovia. The announcement that President Taft had on Tuesday, June 7, nominated Dr. William D. Crum of Charleston, S. C., to be minister resident and consul general at Monrovia, Liberia, stirred Washington politicians to new anxiety. It is said that the choice of Dr. Crum for the position coincides with the opinion of southern senators and that there will be no opposition to his confirmation by the senate from that source. Dr. Crum achieved fame when President Roosevelt appointed him collector of customs at Charleston on Jan. 5, 1903. Senator Tillman led a fierce fight against his confirmation on the sole ground that he was a Negro. No charges were preferred against him, and he was admitted to be a man of integrity and high standing. Action was prevented until Jan. 6, 1905, or one day more than two years. During that period he served under a series of recess appointments. President Roosevelt on Dec. 8, 1908, named Dr. Crum for another term. Early in January of the following year President Elect Taft made speeches in the south in which he gave assurances that Negroes would not be given federal offices in antagonism to popular protests. When the special session of the senate following the inauguration of Mr. Taft expired March 14, 1909, Dr. Crum had not been confirmed. It was then squarely up to President Taft to stand by his speeches and name somebody else. He did so and designed Edward W. Durant, Jr. The New York We are nowoffering quintively the best bargain ever offered in a Silk Petticoat in this city.

Kansas Federation of Women's Clubs. The tenth annual meeting of the Kansas State Federation of Women's clubs, which convened in Atchison on Wednesday, June 15, bids fair to be a great success. The convention will be in session two days, and there are delegates from nearly every section of the state, besides a large number of visitors. The state officers are: President, Mrs. T. W. Bell, Leavenworth; first vice president, Mrs. J. L. Harper, Wichita; second vice president, Mrs. J. M. Gross, Newton; recording secretary, Mrs. J. P. Henderson, Leavenworth; treasurer, Mrs. J. L. Dyson, Kansas City; chaplain, T. Allen; historian, Miss L. B. Harris, Topeka. THE PLAINDEALER WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE REASON WHY There is such a fuss kicked over one society lady loan another a kimona? Who gave the booze paw out at Central park? It is said that a blue w cotorie is now being organized in Helena colored society. Some of our bravest trembling with fear at w POLITICAL NOTES Captain Adamson wanted to know who he was reported to be grooming for sheriff. With Senator Carter back from Washington, politics will no doubt begin to simmer and later on get to the boiling point. Gov. W. R. Allen who is holding down the job during governor Norris' absence would be the very man to put in that office two years hence. Hon E. A. Morely who has announced his candidacy for R. R. Commissioner, is one of our wide awake, broad gauged republicans who stands for progress and is the right man for the voters to keep on the Rail Road Commission. If we can understand things or see at all, the local election this fall will be a hummer and the race no cinch for any man or party. Judge Clayberg's petition has the signature of several of our citizens for Supreme Justice, they appreciate his record of a square deal for everybody. Senator J. M. Dixon of Missoula visited the capitol city this week and gave out his endorsement of the national administration and the work accomplished by the present congress which has just adjourned. It is said that T. H. Lewis will make the race for justice of the peace this fall. It is with keen regret that we note the demise of one old friend and coworker, J. Hume Childers of Topeka, Kansas. And we join with his legion of friends in extending our sympathy to his bereaved wife and sisters. The Regulars are waiting for the insurgents to say "If we can't beat em less jine 'eb." THE PLAINDEALER WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE REASON WHY There is such a fuss kicked up over one society lady loaning another a kimona? Who gave the booze party out at Central park? It is said that a blue vein cotorie is now being organized in Helena colored society. Some of our bravest are trembling with fear at what might appear in this column? The race between the widower and batchelor is not one of the prettiest ever pulled off in this vicinity? There should not be a good field in this city for a first class colored eating house? Uncle Dave should not now come out from his spell? Col. Fitzerald the leader of many a host in battle, victor in most popular contests and all around hustler to help everything and everybody, is not in the limelight any more? And also the distinguished and undaunted senator Murrill who also goes some where is he and when will he return? The Kentucky people are all the rage just now? EMANCIPATION DAY. Further East this season is the beginning of Emancipation day celebrations anywhere from August first to August tenth and ceremonies hte Negro is told to come out and celebrate the anniversary of freedmon. In fact no day in August has any significance as to the abolition of American slavery. But applies only to the gradual Emancipation of slaves in the West Indies. The only days which really are enancipation days for the American Negro are the 22nd of September and January 1st as on Sept. 22 president Lincoln issued his immortal proclamation to go into effect on Jan 1st. Rev. Gny has kept right up with the times and the St. James church has taken no backward step everybody should rally to the front and assist him in his dollar money crusade so that Helena shall take no back seat at any place along the line. Quite a few say they have a hunch on the Butte races and are going over to make a play on the ponies. f ; ie if ] eet | Hig: a i i a | secre ee ah es) 3 ied ae 5 Pe : an 71 me : i it | te 0) ie ae yt hal ea, : Poa it te 3 ie ¥) are ae rip et 1 a ae an ipogaat _ a aa ae as i oe ia ee ie ie 1 ds, ; tig Lis ee aa en.

Cannon of the house of rep resemtativess*who collapsed while deliv- ering an address before the Winfield Chautauqua Saturday afternoon, left here for Arkansas City. The speaker had reeovered from his collapse and in sisted upon making the trip. * Speaker Cannon's physicians urged him- to abandon his Kansas speaking toufy but tho speaker seems determined to continue it. Mr. Cannon feels that the collapse was due to the excessively warm weather, temperature 105, which he was not used to. Speaker Cannon appeared tired when he arrived here, His all night ride from Kansas City and the excitement inci dent to his debate with Gifford Pinchot before the Knife and Fork elub at Kan- sus City the night before, together with -the hot weather here, seemed to un- nerve him, The speaker seemed to realize he was in ‘‘the enemy’s coun try.’? While the audience was not hostile, it certainly was not friendly, and this made ‘Uncle Joe’s’’ task more difficult, ‘Almost from the beginning he abandoned his manuseript and spoke on the development of constitutional government.

July 19.—President Taft states with striking emphasis the position he is taking on the republican state platforms and candidates. ‘The president docs not think he should be called upon to write the party declara- tions in the different commonwealths or to name men for any elective offices. Among the many enrious notions ob taining ‘among the different races us- ing the sword may be noted the gender of the weapon.

Mayor Seidel has compiled for the press some of his views. He says: “‘Lots of people have a mistaken idea of socialism, ‘They think that all leaders of this party should rant and rave oud attempt some kind of revolution. This is nonsense of the rankest kind, For instance, Mayor Gaynor of New York is also a social- ist at heart, although he would not ad- mit it, yet I dare say he considers himself one of the most conservative executives in America.
