Crutcher About to Cross.
Following the announcement that Mr. D. Wesley Crutcher has at last after having been rejected repeatedly, persuaded one of the fairer sex to give him a chance to make good, a few of his men sympathizers assembled in the office of Dr. J. A. Napier to offer resolutions of condolence to be forwarded the bride-to-be immediately and to express to Mr. Crutcher their appreciation of the fact that he will not die a batchelor, as had been anticipated by all.
Long before the time for toast-making, different ones could be seen tipping hither and thither through the office rooms, cautioning each other to not make any noise for Wes is resting quietly now. He had just had a fearful nervous attack, with which he has been frequently annoyed since the announcement.
After a private consultation by Drs. Crutcher and A. N. Johnson, G. S. Moore and J. A. Napier, it was decided that Wes could probably undergo the excitement accompanying "a stag," and accordingly he was ushered into the reception room gently seated in an old arm chair where he reclined throughout the program, occasionally showing signs of weakness.
After well-chosen preliminary remarks by Prof. Mosby of Fisk University, master of ceremonies, the following gentlemen responded to assigned toasts: A. G. Price, E. L Price, R. B. Hardiman, L. R. Mayfield; Moses McKissack, Calvin McKissack A. N. Johnson, L. S. Heaing; O. S. Moore, Wm. McGavock, L. J. Lellen L. E. Lebharder, and M.

These germs or Bacteria often travel through the air having been thrown therein by some person or thing. In view of this act, sense we are to tell of its prevention, we feel we could not improve upon the following rules already established by Sanitarians and by the general medical profession as worthy of observation in efforts for the prevention and control of Tuberculosis. 1st. The house should be screened against flies and insects of like nature because they will infest them from the discharges sputum and decay matter and deposit it in and upon the eatables of the families thereby endanger our lives.
2nd. The patient infected with tuberculosis should be isolated as completely as possible or facilities will permit. This should be done for the good of the patient, other members of the family and the general welfare of the public.
3rd. Let the doctor and as few others as possible take care of the patient. This is wise because then you lessen the possibility of infecting the whole community. You don't know

THE MAN OF 50
It is given a man to be 50 years old but once in his lifetime.
When a man has reached the age of 50 he begins to have the first feelings that age is upon him. As lions as he is in the forties he is able to regard himself and allude to himself as a young man, but when the 50 mark has been reached, and passed, he begins to have his doubts about the propriety of thinking of himself in that manner. These doubts are strengthened into conviction when he overhears his sons or some of his more youthful associates in the labor of life referring to him as "the old man." What are the thoughts of the man who has just arrived at the age of 50?
At 25. in the eyes of youth, the man of 50 seems old, but the man of 50 does not begin to feel nearly as old as he appeared to be from the vantage point of 25. Most men of 50 will say carelessly that they feel as young as ever they did, but upon close analysis they discover that in many ways they are older, as is in evitable.
At 50 the process of physical deterioration is well under way. No man (or at least few men) at 50 possess the physical vigor, endurance or elasticity which was his at 30. He may be robust and vigorous still, but the wear and tear of life has had its effect, and he has not the staying power of youth. By many certain signs he is warned of the approach of age. At 50 he fatigues very easily. At 50 he is compelled to confess his physical limitations and the day on which he discovers that he has physical limitations is a sad day of shocking disillusionment for him. At 50 he is obliged to be more studiously careful of the habits of his life in his work and his pleasures, in his eating in his drinking and in his sleeping. At 50 he must take unusual precautions to guard against the attacks of disease, precautions which you delightts to scorn. At 50 high value is placed upon comfort.
At 50 a man has tasted of many of the pleasure and delights of life, and has exhausted them. He has achieved successes and he has suffered disappointments. He may have realized his aspirations and his dream, in part, but the pathway of his life is srewn with the wrecks of dearly cherished youthful hopes. At 50 a man begins to have some glimpse of what he is going to be able to accomplish in the world, and wherein he will fail. At 50 he is able to measure his capabilities and his possibilities with a fair degree of accuracy. No man at 50 will grant that there is no longer hope of mental and spiritual growth, but he can pretty fairly gauge what that growth will be. If a man has not made his mark at 50, he is not likely to distinguish himself in the following years. Of course, we have had historic examples to the contrary, but the men who do great things or who achieve greatness in old age are as one in a million. At 50 a man knows pretty definitely what he is able to do and what it is impossible for him to do. He has taken his own measure. He has long since relinquished the illusion of youth that all things are possible to him.
At 50 the man is impressed by the swiftness of time's flight. The years then pass with incredible speed. The days crowd into weeks and the weeks into months with such amazing rudellity that one loses hope of being able to finish-even the necessary tasks of life, to say nothing of what aspiration has had in view. In youth time seems endless, and the long years ahead appear more than ample for all that one hopes to do. But when one gets into the serious work or life, when one is thoroughly harnessed to its responsibilities and
his duties, he discovers that his strength and his energy and his time are fully absorbed by the things that are necessary, leaving little or nothing for other things which are his heart's desire. And so at 50 one finds that most of that which he had dreamed of doing yet remains undone and untouched. The dearest aspirations have been set aside one by one. Ah, the hopes that lie buried in the heart of the man of 50!
If any man of 50 cherishes the delusion that he is no older than he used to be, let him consult his likes and his dislikes, his desires and his impulses. The mental attitude of the man of 50 toward life and the things of life is altogether different from that of youth. "When I was a child," wrote the Apostle Paul, "I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things." At 50 a man has experienced much and has learned much, if he has been capable of growth. He may not be wholly wise, but he has attained at least a measure of wisdom. The hot ardor and precipitacy of youth have abated. He is able to think coolly and dispassionately, if not calculatingly. In some measure he is able to appraise the things of life at their true and relative value. At 50 many things which at 25 were considered essential are no longer esteemed of worth.
The man of 50, if he has developed normally, is an outlist, a man with open mind and open heart, youthful in spirit through the body has begun to age. If he has lived thoughtfully he has developed a philosophy which enables him to be content with what life has offered him to rejoice because of the opportunities which have been opened to him, to accept his disappointments with cheerfulness, and to be glad because of what he has been able to accomplish. At 50 a man has just begun to have some understanding of life. At 50 he is equipped to enjoy life as never before. His pleasure is more in the substantial things and less in the ephemeral pleasures of life. Those things, or many of them, which youth count as pleasure no longer interest him. This is one of the infallible signs of coming age.
At 50, if the man has trained soul, mind and body as they should be trained, life is a tremendously serious business, never to be regarded lightly. The man of 50 should be a man vigorously in earnest, thoroughly appreciative of life's privileges and responsibilities. And yet the man of 50, in the light of his experience, is not oppressed or depressed by the burdens of life. He has not been soured by its disappointments. On the contrary, life to him has been a glorious experience. For all that he has been denied there has been compensation, abundant and yet more abundant. Each day comes to him as an unopened book, filled with unknown possibilities, and each tomorrow is anticipated with best and enthusiasm for the experience it may unfold. He is eager for the new interests which each year of life reveal to him, for the new friends which the years bring to him. Though many of his hopes have failed, he is yet hopeful, with the far-seeking vision that reaches out and lays on the things which are eternal. About all as youth with its fever and unrest has receded, he has become serene, with a tranquilborn of the disciples of the passing years. Sure of himself, he looks to the future with confidence, certain that the best of life is yet to be Truly, it is worth all of life to have reached the age of 50.
THE REAL TEST.
The real test of friendship between yourself and your neighbor lies in your attitude toward and treatment of his dog. The bond may be a sturdy one, capable of sustaining the strain of a thousand evasions acts and unneighborly department. You may beat him at checkers or poker and he will respect you, ever though you take his last cherished dollar; outstrip him in a race for church and lodge honors and he will still think you a decent fellow; you may coax away his friend, speak his children and poke fun at his wife's new spring hat and he will continue to smile; but kick his dog just once and see what happens! That beautiful and seemingly unbreakable bond of friendship will last about as long as a strand of cotton in a Kansas cloone. He is your enemy from that time forth. He will hate you with a venom unknown to any save the denens of the bottomless pit and men whose dogs have been kicked. He will grind his teeth every time you chance within his range of vision and he will be awake nights scheming vengeance.
It didn't give Col. Roosevelt the grouch to get turned down by the president. He is doing all he can to get men to join the colors. Many people believe that President Willo made the gravest mistake of his administration when he declined to permit Roosevelt to raise a division or two of men, outside of a service ages, to serve in France or Belgium, but it is evident that Roosevelt is willing to do his bit just the same.
W. J. Bryan, who receives $500 for a lecture and who is considered a rich man, has bought a $1,000 Liberty Bond. Several laboring men who work three or four months for the same amount W. J. B. gets for an hour's work, have subscribed an equal

The world should learn to eat more corn and less wheat. Corn is the cheaper, and perhaps always will be, because an acre of good land will produce more of it. Besides, corn is one of the best food products in the world and can be prepared for the table in hundreds of different ways.
That army of a million that Bryan said he would raise over night by the volunteer system has been raised ten times over in fourteen hours by the selective conscription system. That is the difference between words and deeds.
The West Virginia legislature has enacted a law requiring every able bodied citizen from 16 to 60 to work at least thirty-six hours a week. That is a roundabout way to shut the poolhalls.
When one witnesses the slow and painful process by which this country is raising any army, he cannot but congratulate himself that the French and English armies are between us and the Kaiser.
It sounds like a joke when you hear it talked that a man who buys Liberty loan bonds is doing as much for his country as one who is willing to loan himself for a target for German marksmen.

McAdoo is said to be slated to succeed his father-in-law as president. What's the democratic party trying to do, establish a dynasty?
Gentle speech is the accompaniment of true womanhood; and a soft, well modulated voice is everywhere a mark of culture and refinement.
The job of leading Russia anywhere just now is what may be adequately described as "some job."
Let's hope that Mr. Bryan's investment of $1,000 in a Liberty Bond is just a feeler.

Every train entering Nashville deposits its quota of teachers for the State Normal President W. J. Hale and his able army of subordinates have been busy as the proverbial bee all this week putting things in order or the summer school. The president assured the Globe that he was satisfied that this year summer school, with previous recounts and is all smiles over the outlook.

Great Sunday School Congress Halts. Adjourns Out of Respect to the Memory of Mr. Jordan H. Wynn.
Memory of Mr. Jordan H. Wynn.
The sad intelligence that Mr. Jordan H. Wynn, the beloved father of Mrs. Edw. P. Jones, was dead came in a telegram to Dr. Jones, who was in attendance of the Congress. Immediately Chairman Chas. H. Clark made the announcement that services appropriate would be had by the Congress. The choir of three hundred voices sang, Dr. E. W. Moore of Columbus, Ohio, Dr. E. R. Carter of Atlanta, Ga., and Dr. Jno. W. Hurse of Kansas City, each offered prayer that the affliction coming to Dr. and Mrs. Jones might be borne with fortitude. Mr. Wynn was seventy-two years of age at the time of his death. He is survived by a wife, Mrs. Harrett L. Wynn, one son, Mr. Andrew J. Wynn and three daughters, Mrs. E. P. Jones, Mrs. Minnie Jones and Mrs. Bettie Harris. Dr. Jones left at once for his home. Mr. Wynn was a consistent member of the church and died in full triumph of the faith.
Off to Des Moines.

Wharton, James W. Blaine, Victor C. Lightfoot, Man, Pose, Dr. M. V. Boutte and Prof. H. Campbell. We are sure the above gentlemen will acquit themselves honorably and reflect much credit upon Tennessee and Nashville.

One of the most enjoyable and pretty arranged affairs of the season was the reception tendered Mrs. Mattie Pegram Davis, by Mrs. Elmora Work-Sango at the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McGavock.
The friendship of Mrs. Sango and Mrs. Davis dates from the days when they were both residents of Oklahoma although Mrs. Sango is at present a teacher in Colored Orphanage at River dale N. Y. when she learned of Mrs. Davis' visit to her home city she arranged the enjoyable reception. Mrs. J. D. Ballentine, Mrs. Sango's sister served as hostess, assisted by Mrs. W. H. McGavock.
The suite of the McGavock residence was delightfully decorated for the occasion. Palms and cut flowers were used in abundance; the dark foliage of the ferns and the lovely tints of the blossoms under the delicate glow of the vari-colored lights made a handsome back ground for the lovely women in their handsome gowns who called during the evening. About fifty guests the hospitality of the hostess.

THE CAT A MENACE TO HEALTH
It is estimated that there are nearly 50,000,000 cats in the United States, or one for every two persons. And the press has it that, according to medical authorities, they must be extirpated to improve hygienic conditions and stop the spread of disease. War is also being made upon the cats also for the further reason that they are one of the principal sources of danger to bird life. The movement in New York state to tax cats is said to be only a part of a national awakening that promises a great reduction in the number of cats. Almost every important city in the country, it is stated, has private organizations that seek to run down the vagrant cat and consign it to the electric oven. In this way, it is declared, New York

city disposes of more than 60,000 to 50,000. Yet despite all that is being done the cat is said to be steadily increasing in number, and the scientists contend that this is the cause for real alarm. It is pointed out that the germs of numerous diseases are known to be carried in the fur of the cat midnight prowler who goes from yard to yard and ash can to ash can is charged with imperiling the health of a whole neighborhood. History shows that the cat was domesticated among the Egyptians more than 1,300 years before Christ and was digified by them with a titular diety.

Which Will You Have, Joy or Fun?
Perhaps you may think this is a strange question to be asked and what does it mean? It means this: Many young people are wild for fun. They will pay out money and stay up very late at night and go with company that is not very choice, all because they want to have some fun—some foolish talk that will make them laugh. If father says "that is a dangerous place you had better not go my son," the son replies "Oh, fatter you know young people must have some fun." When mother says, "daughter, I do not like that young man," the girl answers, "Oh, mother he is so funny, he keeps me laughing all the time." To be able to make people laugh is a wonderful gift.
We turn aside from good sensible company and follow the one that can tell jokes and keep you laughing. But remember that the laughter of a fool is like the crackling of thorns under a pot. They make a great noise, but there is not substance enough in them to make the pot boll. Every one should be happy and run over with joy and gladness but not fun. So much fun and nonsense does not pay. When it is past it leaves you sad ad nausea. If something really funny happens, laugh and laugh heartily but do not want your way to get fun or to make fun.
We hope you will meditate upon this subject, and quit spending so much time in gigging and nonsense and instead take time to read good books and write letters.
It looks very silly to see a young lady or gentleman strolling up and down the streets looking for joy. Fun belongs to the earth.
The joy of the Lord is the strength of his people, the sunshine that scatters their sadness and gloom.
One of the great and good things about the Rev. Dr. W. H. Moses is that he has continued to move and get around, nd talk and squirm until he has finally landed in Pennsylvania, the home of Harry K. Thaw. From the last dealings of the Pennsylvanians with that distinguished personage, the Pennsylvanians know what to do with men who are somewhat disorganized above the eyes. It would not surprise us to hear of the good Pennsylvanians, sooner or later, taking charge of our good friend and brother, and giving him a free treatment for neurosis, or to be more specific, nervous diseases. His last fling at Dr. Frank, his argument and analysis of the able editorial delivered by Dr. Frank of the able Review on the subject, "THEY FAILED TO PROVE IT," justifies the conclusion that he has lost his reason. Dr. Frank was clear, concise, able, logical. There was no possibility of a successful contradiction of the position in which he placed Dr. Boyd, but from the analysis of the editorial given by Dr. Moses, Dr. Frank slew his own giant, when as the editor of the People's Defender sees it, Dr. Moses as is his custom has simply twisted things to sitit his evil purpose. But nobody should think strange of him. A man that is capable of so many changes, and such erratic rantings, such mental aberrations, and such psychological displays as has been his for the last fifteen months would seemingly be capable of almost anything. But as we said, before, the Pennsylvanians, we are quite sure, will soon take charge of him, and accommodate him as they have accommodated the psychological pervert, Harry K. Thaw.

GOVERNMENTAL REGISTRATION.
WHAT IT SHOWS—SOME
THINGS IT SHOWS.
According to the public press,
Tuesday, June 5, was registration
day. The day appointed by the government for the registration of all males in the United States between the ages of 21 and 31.
It is encouraging to note that something like ten million young men came forth and registered preparatory to being drafted for military services in the United States government. To be sure a large number of this amount plead exemption causes, or causes that they claimed would exempt them from military service, but the record shows that a large and encouraging number gave no reasons why. But the point that is very encouraging to the editor of the People's Defender and should be to the Negro everywhere is that the young Negro registered in such large numbers. We were delighted when we studied the figures, the returns showing the registration of Arkansas. The registration list in Arkansas demonstrates that their
REV. J. B. RIDLEY,
Secretary. Metokas,
Nashville, Tenn.
are hundreds of young Negroes between the ages of 21 and 31, and also shows that there are hundreds of young white men between the same ages. The comparative figures are interesting and show that the Negro forms about one-third, or a little over one-third of the entire population of the state, that is, if we are to regard that the ratio will continue, that is the ratio between the whites of other ages and the colored of other ages as is demonstrated by the whites and blacks of the ages between 21 and 31. The total number of whites registering in Arkansas, 89,899 and that of colored, 33,843, which shows a little less than one-half of the whole number registering. There are several things that will be exceedingly clear from these figures after the war is over as it relates to the political strength and possibilities of the two races. It is encouraging to note that in the city of Little Rock the registration as between the races was splendid. The whites show in the city of Little Rock, 3,509: the total colored in the city of Little Rock, 1,691. In the county of Pulsasik, the county in which the capital of the state is situated, the figures are more encouraging indeed in favor of the Negro, for if the public reports or public returns are to be credited, then outside of Little Rock in Pulsasik County there were more young Negroes between the ages of 21 and 31 registered than there were young white men between the ages of 21 and 31. The figures follow: Whites in Pulsasik County outside of Little Rock, 1,737; colored in Pulas.
Idi County outside of Little Rock, 1,824. There are a number of other counties in the state that show a larger Negro registration than whites. Those figures gotten up by the government are interesting when one begins to study them from a political point of view, and they will be of great service to the politicians in after years. The editor of the People's Defender congratulates the Negroes upon their splendid showing, and this congratulation comes not only to them because of their large registration, but because also of the fact that they did not find reasons for exemption any more than other races. The figures compare most favorably, for the number of those registered by the whites, the number of those registered by the colored, the ratio was about the same compared with the total number. The black man should not feel bad when in times of crises, when in times that men should be men, when there is a demonstration of manhood, when there is an opportunity of a fair show and a fair record, the black man should not feel discouraged when it is proven that his record stands about equal to that of any other race.

THE LAST DREAM OF ABRAHAM
LINCOLN.
By C. T. Wettstein.
The following story I found some time ago in a German paper, and, as I have never seen it published in English, I will herewith republish it without taking any responsibility as to its authenticity.
Lincoln had a warm, deep love for his family. There was not an evening when he, tired and exhausted from
W. E. H.
MRS. L. B. FOUSE
Director of Galedas.
Lexington, Ky.
official duties, did not seek recreation with his family.
One evening his wife noticed that he was unusually quiet and absent-minded. All at once he asked Mrs. Lincoln what she thought of dreams.
"Nothing," was her reply.
"Well, I am glad to hear that from you." said the President, "because I had a remarkable dream last night which none of us would like to become true."
"What was it father?" said his little boy, jumping upon his lap, "come, tell me!"
Lincoln, at first, hesitated, but when the boy continued his entreaties, he said: "Well, if your mother wants to hear it I will relate the dream."
When Mrs. Lincoln said she would listen the President related the following story:
"It was late," said the President,
"when I went to bed at night. I was tired and soon fell asleep. Then I dreamed that I was surrounded by a great stillness, and in the distance I heard several people weeping. Then I went down the stairs. All around me was the same stillness, but the weeping and the wallings became more distinct. I came to a room with an open door. I entered, but I was terrified at what I saw.
In the middle of the room stood a beautiful sarcophagus, on which stood a large coffin with a corpse inside. Around it stood military guard and a large crowd of people filled the room.
"Who died?" I asked one of the guards.
"The President.' was the answer. 'He was killed by an assassin.'
"Then I heard such loud weeping and lamentations that I awoke. I could not go to sleep again, and I felt very much depressed." and the boy looked at him, greatly terrified.
When Lincoln had finished, Mrs. Lincoln—
"Well, father!" queried the boy, 'such dreams are of no consequence aren't they?'
"Certainly not,' said Lincoln with confidence. "We will not speak of it—and try to forget it; it was only a dream."
But, nevertheless, the President was unable to shake off the distressing impression of the dream. Wherever he went he saw that dreadful death scene, and heard the weeping and the lamentations as he had heard them in his dream.
That something was wrong with the President that day was noticed, not only by his family, but also by the members of his Cabinet. They tried to question him, but he evaded all answers.
When, on April 14, 1865, the President was shot by Booth, Mrs. Lincoln eried out: "Oh! the dream! the dream!"
At that time people did not understand these words: Later on, however,
this singular prophetic dream was oten related in Washington society. That there must be some truth in this story can be seen in the book of John Foster, "Life of Charles Dickens," in which he says:
"On the afternoon of the day on which the President was shot there was a Cabinet council, at w presided. Mr. Stanton . . . arrived rather late. The President broke off in something he was saying and remarked; 'Let us proceed to business, gentlemen.' Mr. Stanton then noticed, with great surprise, that the President sat with great dignity in his chair instead of rolling about in the most ungainly attitude, as his invariable custom was, and that instead of telling irrelevant or questionable stories, he was grave and calm and quite a different man.
"Mr. Stanton, on leaving the council
DR. R. M. REDDICK,
Director, Metokas,
Atlanta, Ga.
with the Attorney-General said to him: 'What an extraordinary change in Mr. Lincoln?' The Attorney-General replied: 'We gil saw it before you came in. While we were waiting for you, Mr. Lincoln said with his chin on his breast, "Gentlemen, something very extraordinary is going to happen, and that very soon."' The Attorney-General replied: 'Something good, sir, I hope.' The President answered very gravely: 'I don't know, I don't know, but it will happen, and too, too!' The Attorney-General pressed him to explain. In reply the President said: 'I have had a dream, and I have now and the same dream three times. Once on the night preceding the Battle of Bull Run, once on the night preceding such another (naming a battle also unfavorable to the North). His chin sank on his breast, again, and he sat reflecting, 'Might one ask the nature of this dream, sir?' said the Attorney-General. 'Well,' said the President, without raising his head or changing

his attitude, 'I am on a great rolling river, and I am in a boat, and I drift and I drift! But this is not business, suddenly raising his fist. I looking round the table as Mr. Stanton entered. 'Let us proceed to business, gentlemen.' That night Mr. Lincoln was shot."

Dr. J. L. LEACH MUST AWAIT THE CALL FOR MEDICAL MEN AND SURGEONS AS WELL TRAINED MEDICAL MEN WILL BE WANTED
No man in Nashville was more disappointed than Dr. J. L. Leach, who had passed a successful examination to enter the Government Training Camp when he was advised that the services of Medical Men and Surgeons will be needed later and he must wait until the call for this class men.
Dr. J. L. Leach had made every possible preparation to leave for the Camp and had great hopes of taking care of Tennessee in this particular. He was forced to leave this matter in the hands of his friends who can

take advantage of this splendid opportunity to serve their country and the race.
Dr. J. L. Leach, must of necessity abandon his plan for immediate war service and await until provision can be made to place Negro men into the service. Dr. Leach stands in the front rank for this qualification as he holds an Internship from the Hubbard Hospital and served for two years as an Associated Surgeon to Dr. J. H. Hale at the Hubbard Hospital. He is now on the surgical state of the Hale Surgical Club at the Hubbard Hospital and also member of the Surgeon Staff at the Millie E. Hale Hospital.
Dr. Leach will continue his prize for the summer here for a while when he will leave. He will do some restful work in Post Mortem Surgery. He also plans to tour the south in the country or the Merry Harry Alumni Endowment unless the Government will use him soon.
Standard Life Insurance Company Distributes Its Share to National De-
fense.
The country-wide publicity given to the patriotic activities of our different corporate interests does not in intentionally neglect to mention Negro financial and industrial institutions. They are not united in the daily press for the very simple reason that the average white editor and reporter have not yet been made to realize the existence of bona-fide Negro organizations of more than casual size and wealth.
Practically every Negro bank, trust company and investment company has gone the way of all true American institutions in the early subscription for Liberty Bonds.
Negro churches and schools all over the country have advised the purchase of these, in many instances, the first Negro investment in negotiable securities.
Negro banks may the many insurance companies have cheerfully assumed their proportions of this duty in precisely the same spirit as have all other loyal concerns.
The Standard Life Insurance Com' pany, of Atlanta, Ga., has authorized the purchase of $1,000 worth of these bonds by their treasury, and are facilitating installment purchases on the individual accounts of employees. Their 180 acents in nine different locations have been, Ga., and instructed the policyholders, and prospects as to the best methods of increasing the quality and variety of farm and garden products. Little imagination is required to realize the far-reaching effect of this missionary work in the most prolific agricultural territory in America and among a people not usually reached by the usual propaganda of this character. The Company has encouraged both office and field forces to cultivate their own premises and as a result some of the finest gardens in the South are replacing hitherto neglected spaces.
Their crowning achievement, however, lies in their contribution of man-power to the service of the Nation. Several of their guests are now in uniform with volunteer regiments while members of the Home Office force, Charles A. Shaw, I. S. Blocker and Carter N. Brown have qualified for the Officers' Reserve Corps. A colored corps of clerks under Mr. W. J. Shaw of the Standard Life Auditing Office registered 1,860 colored citizen son June 5th. This corps numbered thirty persons recruited from top enterprise businesses, insurance companies, etc., located in the Old Fellows' Building, the Standard Life alone furnishing fourteen clerks. Mayor Candler personally visited the registration place and complimented it as the best organized and most completely successful unit in the City of Atlanta. This both registered 1,853 Negroes and 7 white persons, all of which constitute a record of remarkable contributions for one Negro corporation.

Pre-Congress Chorus Recital A Success.
Nashville is inherently a musical loving city, so when the National Choriston of the National Baptist Convention and the National Baptist Sunday School Congress arrived in the city and issued a call for members of a great chorus, each church unheatedly sent the number demanded. The Pre-Congregation had a large crowd of music-loving people was a decided success. Too much credit can not be given Prof. H. B. P. Johnson of Muskogee, Okla., for the masterly way in which he whipped this chorus of amateur singers into shape. The chorus numbers were very good indeed. The pieces de-resistance however, were the selections by the male and female quartet with Phil B. Allison in the lead Every number of the program was heavily received. The Program was as follows:

The Vole College decided during the spring part of the year to tour the state in the persons of its representatives and the Tampa class is one of the many classes turned out by them this season.

Nuxated Iron to Make New Age of BeautifulWomenandVigorousIronMen
Say Physicians—Quickly Puts Roses Into the Cheeks of Women and Most Astonishing Youthful Vitality Into the Veins of Men—It Often Increases the Strength and Endurance of Delicate, Nervous, “Run-Down” Folks 100 Per Cent. in Two Weeks’ Time.
Opinions of Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, New York City; Dr. Howard James, Late of the Manhattan State Hospital of New York, and formerly Assistant Physician Brooklyn State Hospital, and Wm. R. Kerr, Former Health Commissioner, City of Chicago.
NEW YORK, N. Y.—Since the remarkable discovery of organic iron, Nuxelad Iron or “Per Nuxate” as the French call it has taken the country by storm. It is conservatively estimated that over three million people annually are taking it in this country alone. Most astonishing results are reported from its use by both physicians and laymen. So much so that doctors predict that we shall soon have a new age of far more beautiful, rose-cheeked women, and vigorous iron men.
Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician and Medical Author, when interviewed on this subject, said: “There can be no vigorous iron men without iron. Pallor of the skin is a sign of deficiency. The skin of anemic men and women is pale; the flesh flabby. The muscles lack tones; the brain fags and the memory is weak; the muscles weak, nervous, irritable, despondent and melancholic. When the iron goes from the blood of women the roses go from their cheeks.
“In the most common foods of America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sao, farina, degerminated cornmeal, no longer is iron to be found. Refining processes have removed the iron of another Earth from these impoverished people. Home cooking, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are responsible for another grave risk.”
“Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must supply the iron deficiency in your food by using some form of organic iron, just as you could use salt when your food has not enough iron.”
"Former Health Commissioner, Wm. R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says: I have taken Nuxated Iron myself and experienced its health-giving, strength-building effect, and I have learned that it my duty to make known the results of its use. I am well past three score years and want to say that I believe my own great physical activity is largely due today to my own experience with Nuxated Iron. From my own experience with Nuxated Iron, it ought to such a valuable remedy that it ought to be used in every hospital and prescribed by every physician in this country." Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has studied both in this country and in great health-care facilities, says: As it have said a hundred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders.
"Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to help him with his insurance. I was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty and as of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man, and he was notwithstanding his age. The secret, he said, was taking iron-Nuxated Iron had him with renewed life. At 30 he was ill and he was not nearly all in. Now at 50 after Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vitality and his face bearing with the buoyancy of youth. Iron had him with the ability to change food into living tissue. Without

Miss Nannie H. Burroughs Uphold by
Trustees.
Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, president of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Lincoln
Heights, D. C., has been unanimously
uphold by the Board of Trustees of
the very helpful institution she has
built up for the development of col-
ored American womanhood. By a
unanimous vote the trustees declared
that they stone held legal jurisdiction
over the school and they sustained
the contention of Miss Burroughs
that the National Baptist Convention
has no right or title to claim any
part of the property or to participate
in any way in the internal managem-
agement of the Institution.
The resolutions adopted by the Board state, among other things: "We think it unwise and unnecessary to accede to the request of the National Baptist Convention, submitted at its last session (recommended by Auditor Rodgers), concerning the transfer of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc., as the rights and relationship of the Woman's Convention Auxiliary to the National Baptist Convention are already protected by its Board of eighty trustees, as specifically set forth in Article 4 and in By-Laws 9 and 12 of the corporation.
"Be it further resolved: That we have implicit faith and confidence in the capability and unswerving integrity of the President, Miss Nannie H Burroughs, in conducting the affairs of the National Training School for Women and Girls, Inc., and urge the hearty co-operation of all loyal Baptists and all others interested in the training and development of women and girls for positions of trust and honor. By united efforts, we can here stlorify God, build up the Kingdom, live up to our sacred trust, and uphold the high standards already set up at this Institution."
This marks the end of a long-drawnout controversy anent the control of this banner school, a controversy without warrant on the part of the National Baptist Convention and one would have had but one logical conclusion. Miss Burroughs because she is right and has been right from the start. The work will now go on with accelerated speed. The friends of Miss Burroughs all over the country are flooding her with congratulatory messages and is grateful for these pieces of support. They strengthen her for the battles of the future—for the problems that must be solved day by day.

it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing you any good. You don't get the benefit of eating well. You become weak; pale and sickly looking, just like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: try to eat well for three days and can walk without being tired. Next, take two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxedo iron three times per day after meals for three days. And see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run-down people who were all the while double their strength and endurance and entirely rid themselves of their troubles in from ten to fourteen days' time simply by taking iron in the proper form. And this, after they had in some cases been given for months without obtaining any benefit.
Dr. Schryer C. J. Causes, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital New York City; said: "I have never before given out any medical information or advice for publication, as I ordinarily do not believe in it. I have never given out any advice to be remiss in my duty not to mention it. I have taken it myself and given it to my patients with most surprising and satisfactory results. And those who wish to enhance their strength, power and endurance will find it a most remarkable and wonderful aid."

Dr. John Van Schack for President of Howard.
The board of trustees of Howard University met last week and transacted a big batch of accumulated business. The year closed rather abruptly on account of the war and training camp agitation, but it was voted a successful one, nevertheless. The high cost of living has made its impress upon the commissary and coal tin of the institution, but the ledger came out on the right side and the meeting was a happy one.
Hon. Wendell Phillips Stafford, of the District Supreme Court, and Bishop John Hurst, of the A. M. E. Church, were elected members of the Board of Trustees to fill vacancies. A special committee, made up of a group of the trustees, was appointed to scan the educational field and suggest a suitable nominee for the preside- tory of the University, which is to be vacant at the time of the next school year because of the resignation of Dr. Stephen Morrell Newman, who has filled the post for the past five years.
It is given out that pressure will be brought to bear to have the Rev. Dr. John Van Schalck, Jr., consent to permit the use of his name in connection with the Newman vacancy. Dr. Van Schalck is now president of the Board of Education of the District and has made such a profound impression upon all as a man of powering the absolute honesty, of high moral courage, of independent, of broad intellectual vision, of earnest sympathy with the strivings of the colored American, and of great influence with the leaders in Congressional and high official station, that the suggestion of his name brings a fervent "amen" from every quarter. If Dr. Van Schalck can be shown that his bound enalty lies in the acceptance of this trust, the cup of joy of the faculty and student-body of Howard University should be more than full. The distinguished professor is on his way to France just now, serving a mission for the Red Cross Society, and is for the present out of direct reach. The matter will be laid before him at the proper time.
Those who believe the time is ripe for the election of a colored president are still active in the presentation of their claims. The merits of Kelly Miller, George W. Cook, W. E. B. DuBois, A. H. Grime and others will receive attention when the campaign opens in earnest.
Lieut. Col. Young to the Presidio for Treatment.
The Washington friends of Lieut. Colonel Charles Young, of the 10th Cavalry, United States Cavalry, have been alarmed to know that this gallant officer has been ordered by the War Department to report to the Commanding Officer at Letterman General Hospital, the Presidio of San Francisco, Cal., for observation and treatment. The order beaten date of May 23, 1917. The details are lacking, but may be given at a later date. Until ordered to The

pitial, said: "Nuxated Iron is a most surprising remedy. A patient of mine remarked to me (after having been on a six weeks course of treatment) that the THERE STUFF IS LIKE MAGIC." Previous to using Nuxated Iron I had been prescribing the various mineral salts of iron for years, only to meet complaints of dislodgement and irritation. The hardened secretions, etc., when I came across Nuxated Iron, an elegant ingenious preparation containing organic 'on', which has no iron content, and which is not effect on the stomach, and which is readily assimilated into the blood and quickly makes its presence felt in increased vigor, snap and setting power. It enriches the blood, brings oxygen to the tissues, failsoning of renewed vitality endurance and power to men who burn up too rapidly their nervous energy in the strenuous strain of the great business competition of the day.
NOTE: Nuxurax Iron, which is resorbed and re-crystallized, is not a patent medicine nor a secret ingredient but one which is well known to dripgers and whose iron constituents are in it. Unlike the older iron product, it is a black, non-irritating iron product, black, not impure the stomach; on the country, it is a man-made iron product, not impure for nervous, run-down conditions. The manufacturers have taken $100.000 to any charitable institution if they cannot take one man or woman under 80 who lacks iron, and to another man or woman under 80 who lacks iron, provided they have no serious cronic trouble. The manufacturers have no serious cronic trouble. Time is of the essence and in two days time. It is of your strength and endurance in two days time.

One of the most lovable and rare characters in the Treasury Department is Richard P. Green, for nearly half a century attached to the personal staff of the Secretary of Uncle Sam's massive storehouse of finance. For many years, covering the tenure of nineteen secretaries of the Treasury, Mr. Green had been a messenger and the post chief of his grade. Through the generosity of Secretary McAdoo, Mr. Green some time ago was promoted to a clerkship and given a raise in salary to $1,200 per annum.
Mr. Green is very fond of the Mr. McAdoo and his family; so, when the Secretary purchased for his little daughter a "Liberty Bond," Mr. Green followed suit and bought one—a $50 registered bond—for his grand son, Master Frank Payne, who reached his six birthday on the 16th of this month. In this practical fashion two natal anniversaryes are honored and the nation is $100 to the good on the joint transactions.
Bruce Again "in Bad."
Roscoe Conkling Bruce was conspicuous by his absence from the magnificent function in honor of the 80th birthday anniversary of Governor Pinchback. Much adverse comment has been expressed by reason of his failure to subscribe, it being borne in mind that the father of young Bruce and the valiant Pinchback were close friends and political allies in the trying Reconstruction period. This neglect of "the Last of the Old Guard" on his part, when the entire country was alame with enthusiasm and eager to pay a tribute to the former contemporary of Senator Bruce is taken as another reason that he C. C. was to measure up to the race's expectations as a leader of thought, morals and the simplest amenities of daily life. Bruce is not wanted any longer as the head of the colored school system in the District of Columbia. He has already served too long for the good of the people he misrepresents.
The Amphib Glee Club's Annual Re Union.
The annual re-union of the famous Amphion Glee Club, the oldest organization of its kind in America, was held last Wednesday evening at the club's headquarters, 907 St street northwest, and the occasion was in keeping with the usual high standard of excellence maintained by the club year by year. This was the Amphion's 26th natal day and Prof. J. Henry Lewis, musical director and business manager, took particular pains to make it memorable. The "Amphion Spirit" of push, pluck and precision was on tap every minute there was in music, speech and social intercourse a snap and go that has made this club an exemplar of the "pep" and variety which some authority has styled the "spice of life."
Prior to the regular program of the evening, the Amphibians held their annual business session and election of officers. The "old ticket" was reelected throughout. The roster of officers for the ensuing year stands as follows: J. H. Washington, president; G. Chapman, vice president; C. A. Chapman, vice president; C. Champ, treasurer; Leon Leonard, librarian; J. Henry Lewis, business manager and director, and James F. Alston, agent. They were installed
with appropriate ceremonies.
The invited guests were: Former George, P. B. S. Pinchback; Frank B. Wheeler; the well-known composer and dramatist of the president of the Amphion Glee Club, W. Thompson, manager of "Thompson's National Bureau; Charles H. Wesley, of Howard University, and director of the choir of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church; S. H. Dudley, director of Dudley's Theatrical Brass, of G. Braxton, organist of Metropolitan A. E. Church choir; and James F. Alston, of the Treasury Department.
Following a gracious address of welcome and a resume of the purposes of the club in holding these annual reunions, Director Lewis, as master of ceremonies, present] the speakers. J. G. Chapman talked in connection with the Amphions, Frank B. Williams, the Recollections of a Former Member, J. H. Washington on "What the Amphions Have Done"; R. W. Thompson on "What the Amphions Have Been to This Community"; and C. H. Wesley on "The Inspirational Value of Music." Interspersed between the speeches the Amphions raised the number of choice selections in their own final manning hearty applause. Some of the sons presented the sextette from "Lucia," "Bargain Day Sales," "Until the Dawn," a serenade, and the "Arion Waltz." By request, Mr Frank B. Williams rendered his latest composition, set to the words of Paul Laurence Dunbar's "Conscience of Sorcerer," and played his new patricio music. Both were warmly commended and a wide circulation is predicted for them on the market.
"A dainty luncheon with trimming, etc. where wit flowed fast and furious was enjoyed at the close of the musical and literary program. Some big projects by the Amphions are in process of incubation and Director Lewis is now working as soon as they are in presentable shape. The club's shibboleth is, "Men may come and men may go, but the Amphions on forever!"
Dr. Coleman Improves Hair-Vim Plant.
Dr. Julia P. H. Coleman, head of the Hair-Vim Chemical Company, has completely remodeled her establishment at 1234 U Street northwest, putting in improvements valued at not less than $1,000. The innovations include the enlargement of the front window—now a broad expanse of plate-class—the extension of the elec- tric light plant, new laboratory aparments and cilities for beautification, hair-dressing and the handling of toilet preparations. Dr. Coleman has built up a splendid business here and has a mail-order patronage of large proportions, besides a regular sale of her Hair-Vim manufactures in the drug stores of the land. She has a natural genius for business and the evidence of her prosperity is but a starter for bigger things for the near future. The National Negro Business League is a tertiary of the Wage-Earners' Association of the District, and is active in the work of the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church. She richly merits the success that has attended her unre- mitting and square-dealing labors.
Meeting Place of N. M. A. Changed to Philadelphia.
Advices have been received by Dr A. M. Curtis from the officers of the National Medical Association to the effect that the annual meeting of the body will be held in August at Philadelphia, instead of Memphis, Tennessee, the place originally selected for this year's session. Acute feeling growing out of the recent lynching and burning of a colored man at Memphis is said to be a governing factor in the change. The medical men of the Quaker City are progressive and public-spirited and they are already moving actively to make the approaching pow-wow a monumental success. The sessions open about the fourth Wednesday in August, and the discussions on the floor and social festivities invariably prove both profitable and pleasant. A large delegation will go there from Washington.
Irvin C. Miller's "Broadway Rustus" is at the Howard Theater this week and is going big—crowded houses nightly. The show carries fifty people and every one is an artist. Miss Esther Bigeon shares honors pretty evenly with Mr. Miller. They are dancers deux-luxe—the poetry of mo-

Gossip of the Town.

Colored pastors and local leaders have been active in stirring up interest in the War Department of the "Liberty Bonds." Numerous churches, loiges, schools, trustees of estates and individuals have been buying liberally, subscribing for the $50 and $100 denominations. The investment is a safe and a desirable one and every man or woman, who is in receipt of a living wage, can afford to buy at least one $50 bond in the sacred name of "Liberty."
Mrs. Adele Minor Moody of Hanover Place, the handsome and accomplished daughter of Prof. Edward Minor, leader of the Howard Theater orchestra, is to leave in a few days for Atlantic City, where she is to spend the summer. Several delightful social functions are being planned in her honor prior to her departure, and a warm welcome lies at her at the "Smart Sea" in the sentinilizing "City-by-the Sea"

Rev. A. C. Garner is hard at work perfecting the plans for the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the University and the Order of St. Luke, which is to take
place at Richmond, Va., August 20 to 24. The order is already large and influential throughout the country, but it is expected that a total of 50,000 members will be reached by August, to fit it appropriately with the office of the 400th anniversary of its birth, "Philippe Day." It will be Friday, August 24, and Richmond will be the jollest place on the map at that time. Dr. Garner has had a brilliant administration as High Worthy Grand Chief and his re-election is being accepted as the proper recognition of his painstaking and efficient laborers for the Order.
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Francis Adams, of 13th street, are happy. It's a fine girl.
Mr. Harry M. Reynolds has been accompanying Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo on his tour of the East and South in the interest of the "Liberty Bond of 1917." Mr. Reynolds is canable and trustworthy and the Treasury chiefftain has unbound confidence in him. Secretary McAdoo has shown a degree of interest in the welfare of his colored workers that the race everywhere should appreciate. The long list of promotions and appointments of colored men and women is concrete evidence of his sympathetic attitude toward the race.

Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, the noted journalist, who went to Trenton, N.J., a few weeks ago for rest, has returned to Washington greatly improved in health and spirits. For the past fortnight he has been at Norfolk, Va., doing some special editorial and literary work for the Journal and Mr. Fortune has resumed his service after three years, contributing editor of the New York Age, and will supply matter for a number of leading publications of the country. Mr. Fortune is conceded to be one of the race's clearest thinkers and most courageous speakers and pennsmiths in all the land. He has some ambitious book and magazine plans in abeyance. Mr. Fortune is also a member of Y.M.A. By permission of the Board of Education, Miss Josephine Wormley, assistant director of music in the public schools, attended the National Conference of Community Music in New York City May 31.
The new bank building of the Industrial Saving and Loan Association will be ready for occupancy about July 1, and the bank will open formally for business in its new and commodious quarters July 5. That is the plan mapped out by Mr. John Lewis, president of the bank and perennial chairman of the building is two stories in height, of light brick, trimmed with stone and iron cornice work. It is the prettiest structure on U street between 7th and 14th streets, and would be hard to duplicate in attractiveness and conveniences anywhere in town. Mr. Lewis' next big move will be to establish a colored hotel in the U street want. It would fill a long-felt want.
***
The resources of the Industrial Savings Bank, May 1, amounted to $54,627.45. This report to the Controller of the Currency was signed by John W. Lewis, president, and W. A. Bowie, Logan Johnson and John H. Simms, his associates on the Board of Directors.

Brief Bits of News and Comments on Men and Measures—Enlistments by Negroes Urged.
President is Asked to Remove Restrictions so That Members of Race May Be Accepted in All Branches.
New York, N. Y., June 12—"I know of no law that precludes the Negro citizen from enlisting in the Marine Corps or the artillery or any other branch other than that unwritten by the militarists of the United States of the German stripe."
This sentence is taken from a letter by Robert Lewis Waring of this city to President Wilson, urging, on behalf of the 12,000,000 Negroes in this country, that he remove all restrictions that prevent them from enlisting in any branch of military service. Mr. Waring believes that the President, as commander-in-chief of the National military forces, has the right, in time to serve to open all branches of that service to all American citizens.
"Although it may be said," wrote Mr. Waring, "that the Twenty-fourth and 25th Infantry and the 9th and 10th Cavalry are open to my people for enlistment. Negroes who are abreast of the times are humiliated, courage that they must be held up to the world falsely as a race of citizens lacking courage enough to lead in battle. Bless the hand that will give me, and the thousands like me, a free hand to serve my country as other men at permitted to serve it."
Whiskey Dealt a Hard Blow. Washington, D. C., June 12—The United States Senate dealt the first hard blow to whiskey last week by knocking out the amendment to the Espionage bill.
This amendment lumped up the beer and wine industries with the distilleries and forbade the employment of any cereal in the production of intoxicating liquor during the war.

It was pointed out in the debate that this meant that there being a three-year supply of whiskey in the storehouses, while beer is only brewed for immediate consumption, the country would be placed on a whiskey basis and the American workman, deprived of his accustomed wild beverage, would be forced to turn to the bonded poison. Now it is intended that a new bill is passed, ordering the use of the grain that is needed for breadstuffs in the manufacture of spirits honors.
As Senator La Follette pointed out in the debates over the proposal to stop the making of any sort of intoxicant, the barley that is used in the manufacture of beer is not used to any extent as human food, which did away with the argument that the conversion of food stuffs was involved. The vote against the Cummins amendment was forty-seven to thirty-seven. It clears the decks for the campaign for legislation that will put whiskey in the same class as morphine and opium and leave beer and light wines in the category of such indulences as tobacco, which is practically the courts taken by both France and Germany.

The all-stars of the Capital City League is the strongest team in the South, defeating the Nebraska Indians June 11th 7 to 3.

The Indians were outclassed in both games, as the Stars outplayed them in all the games, but luck bear them in the first game.

I love my wife, but, O you all stars, Preston Taylor sure knew what he was doing when he selected Manager Ellison to pick his all-stars to play the Indians. That was not such a hard job for them, as he had all of the stars with the Nationals, except Stratton, Ware and Christman.
---
Charlton playing name as Johnnie Red is sure a king i in the outfield and a catcher among the best. There is nothing in sight, Red, that can bear you catching. Keep it up, boy, and there will come a day when you can make your living playing ball.
Street, playing name Shine, is the best short stop in Nashville. Ask the Indians; the feature of the game was the great fielding of Ellis, playing name, "Money" the National's baseman, with Shafter, our Texas kid, crying, "Get em in there, boy." We are with you, pol Johnnie was crying, "Shoot it, Wilikens, I pay them off to Shafter. Look out, big chief; but that curve ball, hit it, white folks, hit it," that was his cry.
Manager Ellison pays his most due respect to Stratton, Ware and Christian for their great help in playing the Indians. That kid, Stratton, sure is a ball player. With Ware behind the bat crying, "Wait a minute, little boy, now shoot it, shoot it," and he was sure shooting it. Christian played field for the all-stars in great form. Mr. Whitsty, that's a great ball player. You've got to stick to that boy.
Myers, playing name, "Black Daddy," lost his hitting eye but he is a fielder by trade, getting everything that comes his way. I love my wife, but, O you Phillips. That Black Sox kid is a whang.
***
Caintain Hurt of the Nationals is a first baseman by trade, getting them in all styles. Keep it up, boy, you can't be beat in Nashville.

Sad news come to Manager Ellison that his $5,000 teacher was on the slat list. Webster, known as "Shot" Be careful, little boy, and take care of yourself for the Nationals need your help.
If the public wants to see good games come out to Greenwood Park every Sunday and support the Capital City League. That's the place to get your money's worth.
* * * *
The Allstars are ready to take on all visiting teams to can entertain Nassau Fever, American Giants and Ben Taylor's A. B. CJs. So our president is doing all he can to get those teams down here.
* * * *
Mr. Athletic, you ask the Nationals to come out and get their egg out of the bowl. We will be out if you bet $25 that you can win. Call at 14:00 Grant street and deposit $0 at once, and we will see if we can break your egg on your bowl. Answer at once.
Mr. Neal Boyd, known as "Woog," can sure hit the ball all around the lot. Quit your noise, Woog, and let in the came and you will be given a better chance.
We thought those wee wee Athletics were dead; it has been so long since we heard of them, as they went down like the Titanic trying to break up the Capital City League. Mr. Whittaker said after the Indian game it would be a long time before you would hear the Athletics' faces. I guess so, for if they play those hard-hitting Nationals they have to go north to work in some foundry to get on their feet again.
Manager Ellison said with this line up he can stop any machine that comes to Nashville, if it is a Germa machine. Street, short stop. Shafter, second bace. Ellis, third base.

The All-Stars of the City League defeated the Nebraska Indians in a fast and exciting game by a score of 7 to 2. It was a good and fast played game with plenty of life. Venson of the Bok Sox started the game but was rushed while he couldn't get his curves to break right and was relieved by Mang Stratton of the Sox who kept the wild men from putting them where they wanted to. The All Stars had plenty of good base runners who made hits count runs and won easily. The fans weren't so thick Monday. They are waiting to see the Moroon-Indian game on Sunday, June 17th.

THE FUTURE.
By "Fess."
1. By "Fess."
Life is a continuous process. Tomorrow unfolds out of to-day as to-day has unfolded out of yesterday. The future is safely provided for only if we are diligent to improve to-day's opportunities.
The salvation and growth of the Negro race in the future depends on the interest taken in the present to foster the development of a distinctive literature.
No race lives except as it lives through its literature. Without a literature no race can have a history.
Chancer, Milton, Shakespeare, Ada
PETER H. BURKE
dison, Goldsmith, Scott, Ruskm, Browning, Dickens, and a host of other illustrious names too numerous to mention, have indeed made history for their race; and while their literature lives, so long will the history of the white race survive, its name endure and its fame be perpetuated. The importance of a race literature cannot be too highly over-estimated.

Certainly it cannot be regarded with indifference or levity.
Race literature is based on a general human weakness—a weakness summed up by one writer as follows: "A human orm has many weaknesses. A more inscription on paper or on a monument is nothing, for they involve only questions of material durability. But when a man's name is heard and loved for a hundred years after he has ceased to use it, we cone that it may live a thousand, and agree to respect that name forever. This, as men think, is to touch the top round of complete success."
As with the individual so with the race. For the same reason that we agree to respect the name of the individual after he has ceased to use it for the same reason we agree to respect the name of the race for hundreds of years after it has passed on the stage of action.
We respect the Greeks and Romans to-day because they wisely created a literature that has lived even unto the present. Even though extinct they yet live—and will continue to the as long as their literature dies.
We as long as their nature lives.

Greek and Latin may be dead
languages—but the ancient Greeks
and Romans are not dead. They are
today exerting an influence in the
affairs of mankind as powerful and
as effective as though their govern-
ments were still in existence.
The Negro is a minus quantity.
Why? The lack of a literature gives
he answer.
The highest form of race patriotism
demands that the Negro race develop
a literature of its own. The lesson is
quite plain—to morrow's safety rests
on doing our duty to day. NOW!

What the race needs to-day is imagination. Imaginations is a great asset at any race. Oliver Wendell Holmes, the great poet, sang of its importance in "The Chambered Nautilus" in the following lines:
"Build thee more statey mansions. O my soul.
As the swift seasons past—
Leave thy low-vaulted past—
Let each new temple nobler, than the last.
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast.
Till thou at length art free.
Leaving thine out-grown shell.
By Life's unrestling sea."
Then let us have imagination, for of that is the one necessary element to the development of a great literature and a great people. Let us imagine ourselves not as simply great but as of greatest. Let us imagine ourselves greatest. And by imagining superlative greatness—with great ambition are fostered and fanned by the highest ideals of ourselves—fond hope shall

lesson forth into glad fruition.
Develop a literature. Make it distinctive. "See the beauty in the sons and daughters of their own flesh. Ferrat out new roads of progress. Paint our pictures in the sun-kissed brown of autumn. Know your hero and heroine in black."
Picture your hero and heroine in mighty deeds, in noble conduct, in romantic love. Picture them in always successful roles with ability, pluck and grit accomplishing impossible things.
Glorify and magnify them in the present. Idealize and idolize them. Only thus will we ever become appreciative of one another and awake within ourselves a real consciousness and unity of race.
The future demands present action.
Act! Act!
"Act in the living present—
Heart within and God overhead."

Trixie Smith is headed east.
Brooklyn, N. Y., besides being a city of homes and churches, has a fine Colored Republican Club.

Phil Worde, the lad who can make the piano fairly talk, and who has composed a number of notable songs in instrumental selections, has returned to the Howard Theatre orchestra. Phil is a tower of strength to Prof. Edward Minor's all-star aggregation of music masters.
The Nicholas Sisters, presenting one of the truly legitimate acts of the Vaudeville stage, entitled "A Daughter of Today," are at Dudley's Mid-City Theatre this week. They played fine at the Howard last week. On the bill of the 7th street house is also "Green Grass" Mason.
Frank J. P. Reed sufferd a very severe attack of throat trouble while in Pittsburgh, Pa., the week of May 25, but with the efficient treatments Dr. A. N. Levy and the most kind and careful attention of Mr. and Mrs. Levy Knox he was able to leave for Schenectoday, N. Y., Tuesday, June 5.
The news of the death of Ora Crisi well in Baltimore brings sorrow to the hearts of all Washington.

Sidney Klicknackt and Laura Bowman, who have just seven severed their connection with the Quality Amusement Corporation, will be seen here shortly in vaudeville.

Note the long list of geniuses in music, comedy and the drama that the Hoover capital has turned out, and the title will be amply justified.
