The loyal Knights are invading the city in all of its quarters, sending forth the doctrine of Friendship, Charity and Benevolence. The Supreme Lodge is holding its 19th Biennial session and is being presided over by Supreme Chancellor Neil H. McCormick, the representatives and delegates are during in all most every state the Union, and the representation this year is larger than ever before in the Supreme Lodge.

GREEN, Supreme Chancellor K. of P handled by the enterprising and thrifty local committee. Camp Jackson as well as the Supreme Lodge and Court of Calanthe head-quarters, have ideal situation. Every comfort for the visiting delegation is amply cared for. Nothing seems to be lacking in the preparation for this large and enthusiastical meeting. The citizens of St. Louis, have welcomed the visitors with open arms. They have thrown open their doors, giving them a cordial welcome. Everywhere decorations and Pythian signs bedeck the beautiful store houses as well as a number of the most imposing residences. The citizens seem to be working as one unit, with the one effort and purpose in view, and that is every visitor, representative or delegate must leave the city with the impression that every possible arrangement is made for their enjoyment and comfort. It is indeed charming to not the amount of enthusement that interest being manifested by the loyal Knights all over the United States, foreign countries and islands of the sea, in this meeting. Pythian special trains were run from various cities, and in particular, those states that lit in close proximity of the metropolis of Missouri. We would not feel safe here in making an estimate of the number of delegates, representatives and visitors present at this session. Every train and every road is bringing in its quota, and by the time of going to press, we have no way of ascertaining the exact number of visitors present. Tennessee, as usual, is doing herself proud in attendance at this meeting, and Tenneasseans are playing quite a conspious part in the meeting. Dr. J. P. Crawford, Grand Chancellor of Tennessee, is a member of the finance committee and came to the city a number of days ahead of his delegation, in order that the work of auditing etc., might be well under way. The Uniform Rank of the various cities are encamping VOLUME XII. at Camp Jackson, a number of them are on special training on special trains and special cars. The Court of Calanthe is exceptionally well represented, and representative Calanthes from every state in the Union are in attendance at the meeting. Wonderful indeed, is the progress being made by the Knights of Pythians, numerically as well as financially. They own some of the most magnificent buildings of any secret organization among Negroes. Their Endowment department is strong and well kept. EFFICIENCY, PROGRESS, DEVELOPMENT, seem to be the watch-word of the organization. They are reaching out in the various states, building up enter-ment supporting industry, conducting business in the region, the world, in a tangible way, be the means and purpose of their organization. The Knights of Pythias are teaching by their thrift and development, the wonderful possibility of the Negro. They are demonstrating his ability to own, control and operate large concerns; they are demonstrating his ability to handle large financial in THE WORLD'S FIRST EMPEROR stitutions; they are demonstrating his ability to meet in fraternal and legislative body and still retain, harmony of action and unity of purpose. This Supreme Lodge session has brought to St. Louis, numbers of the leaders of the race, not only in Pythian circle, but business as well as religious circles, but also in the gathering of nation wide celebrities as has not been her good fortune for a number of years past, and you could hear nothing but songs of praise and words of congratulation for the splendid reception of being accorded all. DR. G. W. WOODBEE PRESENT AND SPEAKS. Dr. G. W. Woodby, of San Diego, Cal., who is now visiting in Tennessee was present at his session of the Stone River Association and was a live wire. Dr. G. W. Woodby was heard Wednesday evening by an appreciative audience. He is a splendid example of what one can acquire in the literary attainment. After having finished school when he left the 3rd grade. We feel he rightfully earned the title of the "Silvertongeor Orator of the West." T. A. Kemon and the good people of the First Baptist Church deserve a much credit for the way they managed and took care of the large body of delegates that attended the Association. Every member to the man seem to fall in line and help shoulder the responsibility. That speaks well for the pastor, that speaks well for the membership and friends of the First Baptist Church. We feel too much praise and congratulation can not be given these good people. Then again we have never seen a more intelligent and orderly audience as well as body of delegates in the history of any Association. Truly we can say the Lord is in this place. Mr. Tom Molem accompanied Miss Queene Miller to the picnic Saturday afternoon. --- NASHVILLE A CITY OF OPPORTUNITY---THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1917.

The Hon. J. C. Napier, serving his first year as president of this organization made a profound and lasting impression upon the delegates in the delivery of his address, it was indeed a splendid document. It showed that he had given thought and consideration to the many problems that confront our people. It was indeed a pivilege and pleasure as well as an honor, to be present and hear this magnificent address. The meeting was a tremendous success in every sense of the word, all the affiliated organizations being well represented. A number of the representatives came up to the meeting driving through the country in their own automobiles. A number came in special coaches, special trains came in all during the day of the 14th. The Nashville delegates attend the League in special sleepers, which speak much for the esteem in them the Tennesseeans hold their fellow-township is honored with the distinction of being president of this great organization. Throughout the meeting the spirit of Booker T. Washington, founder and life long president of the league was manifested, every representative present showed by action and spirit, that they are all keeping alive, the work begun by this splendid and noble character. On the opening day, the Hon. Thos C. Rye, Gov., of Tennessee, welcomed the Business League to Chattanooga on behalf of the famous Volunteer State. On introducing Gov. Rye, the Hon. J. C. Napier called to mind the fact that it is a rare privilege and pleasure as well as an honor for which we are profoundly grateful to have a real live Mayor and a real live Governor to be with us in person and not by proxy, for the purpose of welcoming the delegates to the 18th annual convention o the National Negro Business League on behalf of the progressive city of Chattanooga and the great state of Tennessee. He said in part, "I know that in Governor Tom C. Rye, the Negroes of this state have a friend. He stated that he had gone to him on more than one occasion nand he always found him ready and willing to lend a helping --- hand in the interest and betterment of the colored citizens, and especially in the interest of Education. Mr. Napier's introduction of Governor Rye was indeed a master-piece of eloquence and logic. He called attention to the fact that right before our very yees and on the same platform at that very minute was the Mayor of Philadelphia and the Governor of Tennessee a staunch Democrat, both there come to the city. J. C. C. HON. JAMES CARROLL NAPIER, President National Business League the state of Tennessee, this great Negro convention, which shows that irrespective of political party affiliation, there were white men friends of the Negro who were willing to do what they could to encourage him in his efforts. On being introduced, Gov. Rye made a splendid address, saying that he was deeply and profoundly grateful for the compliments paid him by the different representatives of our race, and that since he was Governor of Tennessee he would be Governor of all the people regardless of race, creed or other affiliation, and when he could not do this, he would step down and out and go back to private life. He said he appreciated the opportunity to be present and welcome the National Negro Business League to Chattanooga, on behalf of the great Volunteer State. He congratulated the colored citizens for their splendid effort and progress, and admired the young men of the race if they could have a field for investment for their business capitol and professional skill and were they imbued with the idea of discovering a lost paradise, that he would serve notice on them here and now, that he would be doomed to utter despair and absolute failure did his foot steps lead not to Dixie, (Laughter and applause). Gov. Rye said in particular, we are all American citizens NOW. (Prolonged applause) We are all fighting under the same flag. He went on emphasizing some of the principals and duties of American citizens. He especially referred to the colored man's duty in the National and Inter-national crises. He spoke of the American Negro's loyalty to the flag, saying that our National rights had been assaulted and our National dignity ignored. We have been compelled to unfurl our undefended flag on foreign soil and we are determined to defend and support it by American soldiers white and black. (Hearty and prolonged applause.) He paid a glowing tribute to Com- finest pany G, a company of Negro troops is to be organized in the state of Tennessee. did w He made special mention and compli- mented them in the very highest. Chatt terms. He said that when war was declared, a number of this Company of Negro soldiers as well as a number of influential colored citizens of the state volunteered. Said that their service was at the command of our nations chief executive, that they were only too glad to offer their service to the war effort, half of their country, and in defense of OLD GLORY. Gov. Rye's address as well as the address of Hon. Jesse M. Littleton, Mayor of Chattanooga. APIER, League. was indeed inspiring and encouraging. It showed that in spite of a great deal of race rioting that there was still in the South, friends of the Negro who were willing and ready to encourage him in his effort in business, educational and financial progress. The eighteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League wound up in a blaze of glory by a banquet and reception tendered the delegates and representatives by the local committee at the Armory Hall, 4 and Market streets. The splendid addresses the melodious strains of the orchestra together with the gorgeous gowns worn by the ladies has never been surpassed in the history of the League and Chattanooga acquitted herself nibly in the reception and entertainment of this splendid meeting. Tennessee can well feel proud of this historic city known throughout the length and breadth of the U. S., as the DYNAMO OF DIXIE." Another splendid feature of the Chattanooga session of the Business League was the souvenir and musical program gotten out by the Publicity Bureau of Nashville, Tenn., of which Mr. J. Blain Boyd is president, and printed by the National Baptist Publishing Board. This program was by far, the most beautiful the most elaborate in the history of the National Negro Business League. It is a beautiful three color patriotic design made up in envelope effect and was so arranged that it can be mailed out without the use of an envelope. The frontest piece was a drapery of Old Glory with Geo. Washington's picture in the center, Booker T. Washington's picture on one side, Hon J. C. Napier on the other side. It showed splendid views of Mr. Washington, pictures of the presidents of the affiliating organizations, members of the local community, and members of the Chattanooga community as well as carrying a number of old Jubilee Melodies. This program was pronounced by every one who has seen it, the finest ever gotten out and Mr. Boyd is to be complimented for this splendid work. The meeting of the National Negro Business League at Chattanooga will long be remembered. --- GREAT PREPARATION BEING MADE—LARGE DELEGATION WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE The thirty-seventh annual session of the National Baptist Convention unincorporated will meet in Atlanta, Ga., September 5-11.

The local committee in Atlanta, is making splendid preparations for the reception and entertainment of this meeting, which will be the largest Atlanta has ever had the privilege of entertaining. All indications point to the fact that this, the thirty-seventh annual session of the National Baptist Convention, will be the most enthusiastic, the most harmonious that the convention has had for a number of years. A revival of the work is being manifested in the work which has done will be brought up to Atlanta, and each Secretary of the various Boards will be called upon to give an account of his stewardship.

JONES, Vicksburg, Miss. President Nat. Bapt. Convention for the development and betterment of the Negro Baptist brethren throughout the length and breadth of these United States. Already it has been learned that a number of the state delegations are coming up to Atlanta in special trains. Letters received, telling us that Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama and Georgia, have all mapped out their official route, and will be joined at the various junctions by delegates from different sections and various cities. The meeting at Atlanta will be exceptionally well attended from the fact that a great number is really able to attend for the recently formed Theological and Training Seminary which was purchased by the Educational Board at Nashville, Tennessee. The Baptists of the United States have longed for and waited for this day, for twenty years. This magnificent institution which was formerly Bosecobel College, is one of the best sites in the South. It has more than twenty acres with three magnificent brick buildings, a steam heating plant valued at five thousand dollars, and the great Baptist hosts are coming up to Atlanta to bring their contributions and see to it that this institution wil not suffer for lack of financial support. While it is true we had for a number of years, an Educational Board supposed to have been raising funds for building of the institution during the war, it was ever accomplished. During the split in Chicago in 1915, a new Secretary was elected to take the place held for a number of years by ev. S. E. Grizzle of Memphis, Ten. It was after the separation that the Educational work took on new life, and after two years, they have made this magnificent start by purchasing this property and they are now appealing to the great host of Baptists to bring up to Atlanta. --- SSION.

C., has also been doing a splendid work and has a glowing report to make. All the Boards of the Convention are having their reports put up in pamphlet form so that the thousands of delegates can take them home to have something to show their church who sent them up, that the National Bap THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN tist Convention is really a progressive energetic convention which is doing some real constructive work. It is also noticed from the program that special days have been set aside for the report of the various Boards and that even the humblest preacher coming from the rural district will have a voice in the deliberation of this great body. Another movement being fostered, under the auspices of the Convention and which is gaining strength rapidly. The Wayman's Movement. The Hon. W. Layman, president, principally lawyer of Oklahoma, the Attorney for the National Baptist Convention, is president of this movement. Mr. C. T. Hume of Nashville, Tenn., Mr. M.

We are very pleased to announce as well as we feel you are pleased to know that all preachers and even theological students who had matriculated in some theological seminary, before the day of registration are exempt from army duty, especially at present.

I had pains all over my body and constipated. My liver was tormented, felt generally miserable. I had doctored and had been in the hospital, but received no permanent relief. I was so nervous and restless that an night I could scarely sleep. The gas pressing under my heart caused pain, and when I arose in the morning, I was tired as when I retired. About two weeks ago I gan to take tonilone, and I can truthfully state that it has done wonders in my case. I am feeling like a new woman and can eat any kind of food. I sleep the night through and have no more aches or pains; in fact, it has cured me, and I am recommending it to my friends, as it has been a Golsend to me."

Se cee ete ne oe eo ape born facts, Mr. Freeman, without re- course to oratorieal flourish, but. in simple, straightforward and convine- ing language, pointed out that the con- servation of food holds the key. to vietory over Germany and illustrated in his own original way the countless channels in which the colored people of thecountry, from the wealthiest to the humblest, could be of vital as: sitanee to America and the allies in this Utanie struggle for world de moeraey. ‘The general government re ‘cognized the value of the Negro help in this work by sending Mr Freeman to the Chattanooga confer ence of the business chieftains of th nation as the special representative of the food administration, under th Girection of the Hon. Herbert C Hoover and Dr. Ray L, Wilbur, to 1a3 the matter properly before the color ed people of the land. ‘The wisdon of the selection of Mr, Freeman wa emply demonstrated by the able ad dress delivered at the Friday after noon session of the Business Leagu and the rapt attention which it com Manded at the hands of the audienc which crowded the L¥ric ‘Theater t the doors. Mr. Freeman's persona success as a commercial force gav him warrent to speak with authority and his wellknown influence in th | financial, fraternal and educations | circles in the nation’s capital, as wel | ns his official status conferred by th [federal government, gave his utte Jances the weight ‘demanded by: th Jacute situation that confronts th \ country at this dine, THE NEGRO'S RESPONSIBILITY IN THE WAR CRISIS. Mr, Freeman, after analyzing the [necessity for the full use of every resource for the winning of this bat- [tle for liberty, impressed upon nis [hearers that the real object of the food administration was to try to or |ganize all the people of the United [States in the conservation of foo. |stuff, He stressed and particularized ‘the fact that food conservation clubs |should be arranged for among the col- |ored people in schools, churches, bitsi- |ness fraternities, commercial and. women's clubs, and stated plainly’ iat tore" was Somethin tat the humblest. Negro could do. | “With the shortage of food abroad, with the partial failure of transpor tation, the shortage of labor, and the present abnormal world condition fac- ing us on every hand,,” said Mr. Freeman, “Bach one of Us has a new responsibility. As a tenth part of the American body politic, the col- fored people must do our share in the work of conserving the food sup- ‘ply for the good of our country and Lin aid of our allies. We can do this lit we save and do not waste. It will require our careful thought three times a day. Not only must we eat carefully the products of the day, but we must preserve the perishable and fruits that are now so abundant. | Seliiers énnot ght unless they are fed." | He urged a systematic campaign | against gopher, rats mice and in- sects, and declared that the unescap- able question was “Will each one do his duty? Will each of us do out bit?” The call was an impressive one |and Mr. Freeman's graphic analysis Jot the plan and its method of appli | cation provoked a discussion in which {all of the speakers and _questioners evinced an anxiety to know just how to proceed and. the agencies through which they could work to the best advantage. Resolutfons were adopted unanimously pledging the moral sup: | Port of the members of the Lenkue and pleading with the Negroes of the | country—Men, women and children | to obey the behest of the government in this matter, Food conservation Is | patriotism—and it is. self-protection. | Mr. Freeman’s constructive activi | ties in the cause do not end with his | special detail to Chattanooga.

The weather is something that all of us talk about, at one time or another, if not all the time. For one thing, it is a conventional and safe topic of conversation. Whatever we may assert about the weather, there is slight probability of reprisal. We do not fear to have the worst we may be impelled to say, under the spur of irritation, repeated. For we realize that neither condemnation nor praise will make any difference so far as the weather is concerned; that the weather will pursue its own course, undisturbed, and that it will not retaliate, as our friends and neighbors have a way of doing when they discover that we have been gossiping about them. Another reason why the weather is so generally talked about is that it is so intimate a part of our lives; it is so inevitable and inescapable. Whatever we may do or wherever we may go, it is impossible to avoid the weather. All of our daily life, from year's end to year's end, is necessarily adjusted to the weather—the clothing we wear, the food we eat, the provision we make for warmth in winter and coolness in summer, our recreations and our sports and to some extent our industrial activities. And so we watch the skies and the clouds and the winds and the tempers ture from day to day and lay each day's plans accordingly. A still further reason for our concern about the weather is that for the most part we are dissatisfied with it. It is true that we have rare days so faultless in their beauty and charm as to invoke general praise and admiration, but apart from these exceptional days, which linger in the memory as a benediction, the larger number of us are more irritated than otherwise by the weather. We speak of the weather only to disparage it. We feel that if the task of ordering the weather has a habit of being unreasonable—that we have rainy weather when it should be dry, that it is dry when it should be rain, when it should be cool it is hot, that the sun shines hotly when a cloudy sky would be in better taste, that winter's cold and summer's heat both are unnecessarily lengthened, and so on. When it is winter we wonder if the cool ever will come to and end. In summer we become impatient with the heat, wishing for power to speed its departing. And the "in-between" weather of spring and autumn, which is neither one thing nor the other, neither summer nor winter nor any thing else recognizable, but a mixture of the bad qualities of all the seasons is nothing short of detestable and unhearable. This general complaint of the weather comes about by reason of the fact that while we are obliged to live in intimate relations with the weather we do not take it into our affections and seek to be friendly with it. We are all the time trying to shut the weather out of our lives. We confine ourselves closely within walls of wood and brick and stone whose chief purpose is to exclude as much of the weather as possible. The slightest departure from normal on the part of the weather drives us to our castles of refuge, within which we bar the doors, and from which we emerge only when the weather again conde scends to smile. Such a thing as bawing the weather and defying it and seeking to understand it in its contra moods we leave to the fool hardly and those urged by necessity. In this we err greatly. For the more one knows about the weather the more likable it becomes, the more friendly it appears, the more enjoyable it is. Close daily intimacy with he weather not only allays irritation. ' he beets patience and admiration. man whose daily life and work are out of doors seldom complains to or is irritated by the weather. If he has not learned to enjoy the weather, to admire its wonderful variability at last he has learned to adjust himself to it, and so he pursues his way without crumbling. And so the man who takes it upon himself to live in close touch with the outdoors discovers in course of time that eccentricities of weather do not disturb him. He does not wish for fair weather always. He takes delight in the changes of the weather from day to day, finding something to enjoy in every kind of day. Bright days and dark days, cold days and warm days, temperulous days and still days, rainy days and dry days, summer's heat and winter's cold, spring's freshness and autumn's haze, the mysteries of the night and the wonders of the starry firmament, all have their charm for him. Each day is different, and marvelous in its differences. Each day has its own beauty, its own lesson to be learned. Each sunrise and each sunset is different from every sunrise and sunset painted on the morning and evening sky by the finger of God. The earth was given to man to enjoy and out of that enjoyment properly come wonder, admiration, respect, love, reverence for the marvelous variety and contrast which study of the weather from day to day and from year to year affords. Therefore the way to set on with the weather is to cultivate it. Seeking its friendship diligently, we soon discover how friendly and altogether likable it is. And from this friendship, once firmly established, we draw as from an inexhaustible reservoir supplies of physical, moral and spiritual health-healing and solace for all the ills and perplexities which be set us. Thus truly the weather becomes the Great Physician. Astute Washington policemen have discovered that it is possible to eliminate rioting over the suffragist banners at the White House gates by removing the suffragists. Then there is also the ultra politic messenger boy who waits until he gets out of sight before reading your message. That little quarrel over the stamp tax apparently has been forgotten, judging from the reception that greeted the American troops in London the other day. Corn bread is nourishing, economical and filling. And if you feel that you can't afford butter, there is oleo. Newspaper enthusiasm over the forthcoming Liberty Bond sale will run high, especially if the million dollar advertising appropriation is allotted judiciously. A flea can leap farther in proportion to its weight than most any creature. But who wants to be a flea? It is one thing to turn loose the flood of patriotic poetry, and another thing to choke it off. Whether or not any kind of weather is nice depends largely on whether or not you have had three days of that kind of weather in succession. Somewhere on earth there may be a horseshoe who does not advertise himself as practical. With regard to the bedbug, it is unnecessary to tell people to swat. The problem is merely to show them how to swat most effectively. Some people's regard for representative government depends upon whom it represents. No, there really isn't any use opening one of those bottles of wine yet to see whether it has got a man size kick. Another reform America ought to press upon the world is that of requiring each nation to select one flag and stick to it. If all the ingenuity, energy and money spent in getting a prohibited drink could be devoted to some useful purpose the war taxes would not bear down so heavily. At the rate the cereal drink trade is being developed it will not be long before more grain is used up in manufacturing lazer beer. Curiously enough the conservationists seem to take no interest in this phase of the problem. That the great American poem of the present war has not yet been written cannot be charged to lack of trying on the part of the poets. --- The operation of the law of supply and demand with respect to prices may be made graphic by assuming that you were selling your two eyes one at a time. In all human-like lihood after the available supply had got down to one eye, the price would show a tendency to go up. If nobody ever went swimming there would be few drownings, and if everybody knew how to swim there would be fewer still. There is no lack of interest in the flag among Americans who have been able to look at strange flags only for a few years. The food problem, of course, is of no importance to the operators of one NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY AUGUST 24, 1917. Got 'em---Thats All! What's the use of fooling along.

Dickson, Tenn., Aug 20, 1917 The Nashville Globe has been requested to publish the following explanation and letter which has been going the rounds of the press from time immemorable. The following clipping concerning a letter which is said to have been written by Christ, and to which there is attached a superstition that any person who comes into possession of it and doesn't have it published be vided by misfortune, has been handed to the Nashville Globe with the request that it be published. The original letter, said to have been written by Christ, was found in the early days of Christianity by a child. There is promise that who ever may have a copy of this letter in their possession will prosper and will be followed by good fortune, if they publish it, but if they do not heed the command, bad luck and misfortune will follow them until it is made public. From the hands of a child that found it, the letter is said to have passed to a convert of the Christian faith. For some reason this convert failed to have the letter published, keeping it, however, as a sacred memo of Christ, and on down through many generations, but was never published. The tradition being that when it was finally given publicity it had been in this one family for more than a thousand years and during all this period, the story goes, the family suffered repated and continuous misfortune. Discouraged members of the family migrated, to countries other than where the letter was found, which was evidently Palestine, and finally one of them came to America bringing the fateful letter with him. The family having possession of it settled in Virginia, still keeping the fact of the letter a secret. Descendants of the family moved farther south, still followed by misfortune; finally as the last member lay on her deathbed she called a neighbor woman Thompson and gave the letter to her and relating its history. The Thompson woman attempted to have it published was rewarded when it appeared in the Rome, Ga., Tribute, Oct. 31, 1891. It was republished in the Balton, Ga., Citizen, and Miss Fannie Wortoman, of Marion, Ind., clipped it from the paper, stating that during the time she had retained the letter in her possession or without having it published or republished, she had had a series of bad huck, which she accrued to her failure to secure publicity for the letter. It is my power that this letter be published. Here is the letter: Whoseover works on the Sabbath day shall be cursed; I command you to go to the church, keep holy the Lord's day without any manner of work. You shall not idle and mispend your time in bedding yourself in superfultures of costly apparel and vain dressing, for I would have that day kept holy that your sins may be forgiven. You will not break my commandments but observe and keep them, they being written by my hand and spoken by my mouth. You will not only go to church yourself, but also your maidservant and manservant, observe my words and learn my commandments. You shall find your work every Sunday at six o'clock in the afternoon before the Sabbath begin. I advise you to fast five Fridays in the year beginning on Good Friday and continuing the Friday following, in remembrance of the five blood wounds I received for you and mankind. You shall love one another and cause them that are not baptized to come to church and receive the Holy Sacrament, that is to say, baptism, and then the supper of the Lord and then be made a member thereof, and in so doing, I will give you a long life and many blessings, your land shall be replenished and bring forth abundance, and then you will comfort you in the greatest temptation, and surely he that doeth to the contrary shall be cursed. I will also send hardness of heart on them, on unpleasant on hardened and unpleasant on unpleasant that gives to the poor and find it profitable. Day for the keep holy the Sabbath day. For the seventh day I have taken as a resting day to myself. And he that hath a copy of this letter from my own mouth and keepeth it without publishing it to others shall not prosper, but he that publishes it to others shall be blessed by me, and if their sins be as many as the stars at night, and if they truly believe, they shall be pardoned, and that they believe not this writing and my commandments will have my plague upon you, and you will be consumed with your children, goods, cattle and all other worldly enjoyments that I have given you. Do not once think of what I have suffered for you in this life in the world in order to cope with Whoseover shall have a copy of this letter and have it in the house, nothing shall hurt them, neither pestilence, nor thunder, and if any woman be in birth and put her trust in me she shall be delivered of her child. You shall have no more news of me except through the Holy Scriptures, until the day of Judgment. All goodness and prosperity shall be in the house where a copy of this letter shall be found. Amen. This letter has been copied from the "Hickman County News," Controville, Tenn. Respectfully, Mrs. L. Gleaves WALDEN UNIVERSITY. President White of Walden University will be in the city next week to set the buildings ready for the opening on September 20th.

Walden this combination is a special effort is being made to secure day pupils. President White feels Walden should make an impression for good in its home city that as a church school it is a duty to reach as many of the young people of the city as possible. "To succeed we must lift as we go," with a little encouragement there is that you could attend school a longer time and by unplifting influence of mentorship make better men and women.

What a blessed thought to know YOU CAN HAVE LONG STRAIGHT H A I R If Anxious to Improve Your Hair and General Appearance Read This Carefully There are so many so-called hairgrowers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding on what to use on your scalp be sure to use a remedy of proven value. Seebay Quinade is highly medicated potion that has stood the test of time. It is the invention of a New York chemist, and is made under the personal supervision of a licensed pharmacist of many years' experience. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. It makes the hair soft, smooth, the glossy, and easy to put on, the style desired. The best results from the use of Quinade the scalp should be shampooed at regular intervals with Seebay's Quinascap. Quinascap is made entirely out of vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and contains no animal fat of any kind. It lathers very freely and is a thorough cleanser. Quinascap leaves soft and fuzzy, and imparts a refreshing feed to the scalp, unequalled other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasep, asking for them by the full name. If your drugist or dealer does not stock those two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler. The price is 25c each.

The suggestion of Former President William Howard Taft for president of Hampton Institute, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Hollis Burk Frissell, comes as surprise to the country, but it is the unanimous opinion that he would make an ideal head for a school of this kind. He is now chairman of the Board of Trustees of Hampton and is said to be the choice of the other members of the Board, all of whom are anxious to have his serve. Mr. Taft became chairman of this Board four years ago when Robert C. Ogden, his person, friend, was called to school, and he has always taken a deep interest in the work of school, and in all others engaged in industrial and technical instruction. Mr. Taft and Dr. Frissell were classmates at Yale University and their associations continued close after their college days. Mr. Taft was an ardent admires of the Iate Dr. Booker T. Washington, the most notable product, and it is well remembered that before and during his occupancy of the presidency of the nation, he took an active interest in Tuskegee Institute, visited the school with Mr. Ogden, and Carnegie and others, and said regularly with Dr. Washington and the full board of trustees for the administration of the Jacques Fund. For rural colored schools. No intimation can be obtained at this time as to when the trustees will elect a successor to the late Dr. Frissell, but it would give pleasure to the colored friends of education throughout the land, as well as add hustle to Hampton itself. Perhaps the best he chosen. There is a belief that he would cheerfully accept if it is pointed out to him that his duty lies in that direction. PRESIDENT WILSON SPEAKS OUT AGAINST MOB VIOLENCE. Although surprisingly meager reports have been sent out of Washington touching the event, President Wilson on Tuesday of last week received a delegation of colored citizens from New York, representing the committee of the recent "Silent Protest Parade" in that city. Members of the same movement came to the White House two weeks ago and laid their protections to Secretary Tumulty, but were unable to secure a personal auditor with the President. This time they were more fortunate, a definite engagement having been made through the intercession of Mr. A. B. Cosey, the well-known New Jersey barrister. The visiting party consisted of Rev. F. A. Cullen, chairman; Mme C. J. Walker, A. B. Cosey, and Rev Charles D. Martin. They were assembled into the reception of the White House at 1:30 o'clock and for fifteen minutes the meanice of lynch law stopped the steps necessary to stop were discussed. The President listened with great courtesy and interest to the protest reflected in the remarks of the spokesmen of the delegation and spoke at length with sincerity and deep feeling. He was justly indignant with all other good Americans, he said, at the wrong perpetrated against the colored race, and that no man's sympathy was more full of INDIA HAIR GROWER THE EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER If you are bothered with Falling Hair, Dandruff, Itching Scalp, or any Hair Trouble, we want you to try a jar of EAST INDIA HAIR GROWER.

A few days ago a report was given out that no colored troops would be sent to camps in the South, because of a possibility of trouble with the residents of that section, but a reversal of this policy is seen in a notice from the War Department that the First Separate Battalion of the trist National Guard, a colored organization, will go into camp at Anniston, Ala., along with other District units ordered here. The new order occasioned some surprise in certain quarters, but there is no evidence that dissatisfaction will grow out of it on the part of the white troopers or of the people of Anniston. The people of Anniston are used to colored citizens and the presence of the District battalion will be nothing strange to them. They will respect the unit form of an American soldier, though his skin be of a worthy hue it was the impression that colored troops be retained in about twenty cities to guard bridges water plants and other public property.

The President reviewed briefly the active operations that are being carried on by the Department of Justice for the punishment of these responsible for the riots at East St. Louis, and added "I will do all in my power to prevent the recurrence of similar offenses to the Memphis outrage and the East St. Louis massacre—outrages against law, order and humanity. What human being would not be shocked at these atrocities. Apart from my position as President, my feeling as a man revolt at these men man acts against my fellow-attempt." In closing the Presidential assembly secured the committee that everything that the Federal Government could do under the existing law would be done. The interview was pronounced highly satisfactory and the committee returned to their homes elated over the frank outspoken and unequivocal expression of sympathy and support given by the Chief Magistrate of nation.

ADDRESS Howard University WASHINGTON, D. C. sinful amount of moral cowardice and hypocrisy on the part of many constituents and members of the Baptist Church, answers for the deplorable state of affairs in many of our educational enterprises. Many very unworthy leaders and incompetent presidents, who have gotten into the work in its infancy and having surrounded themselves with an ignorant, fosilized figure-head, and too often corrupt and grafting Trustee Board Managers toward the progressive element of the public off and entrench themselves in places of vital importance to the race itself—our leaders and educators seem very unlike other people in many respects. Leaders and educators of most other races when they see a work declining in their hands, they simply step aside and repair to new fields; if they do not take this precaution the people and the trustees have courage enough to modestly tell them their time is out; but not so with the Colored man. He seems to stick as long as there is a pea in the dish, with nobody with sufficient courage to tell him his time is out or that his usefulness is at an end. That is true in our state, and we perceive it is true with our people everywhere. —People's Defender. The world is in a deadly conflict, the prime purpose of which is to dethrone "individualism," "bossism," "absolutism," and to enthrone democracy, the rule of the people. If this can be done, the blood shed that it has taken, the lives that have been sacrificed will not have been in vain. For such an heritage handed down to the next generation will be unequaled by that given to any generation by its predecessor. —The People's Defender. The establishment of a Universal Democracy seems to be the duty of this age and most splendidly are the liberty-loving people of the world performing it. Nothing is more delightful than that the Negro is called upon to share a part in this great task—helping as he is to establish a world-wide liberty and a lasting universal peace, he will, when it is attained, by virtue of the sacrifice of his own blood and life, be a partaker in that liberty and peace; and this by the same sacred right that any other race of men claim it. The shedding of blood seems to establish the highest right and confirm the most sacred title to liberty and freedom. "For," says the philosopher, "he who would be free himself must strike the first blow and establish his claim with blood." —The People's Defender. --- OUR CHURCHES 8 Corrinchian Baptist Church, W.

I have declared the principals and pledge myself to the support of them. 1. I believe that a public officer should do everything in his power to conserve the best interests of the taxpayers of the city. 2. I believe in retraining and reform in the financial management of our city. 3. I believe that extravagance should be discouraged, expenditures should be made efficient, and the financial management of our city, its streets, schools, and parks. 4. I am in favour of the necessary main enance of our city, its streets, schools, and parks. 5. I believe in a austerity system that will supply the poor and the rich alike. 6. I believe that the rate of taxation should be diminished, our bonded income decreased; thus re-establishing the financial prestige of this city. This would invite new citizens to our midst instead of driving them from us to other communities. 7. I believe in free school text books. 8. I stand pledged to these principals, and to the enforcement of all laws and promote the welfare of our citizens. 9. I point to this pledge of this pledge I point to my report of life as exemplified in my personal and business career. 10. My record as a citizen and practical business man for 28 years is open, and I invite its inscription. I have been a contractor and builder for 28 years in Nashville. I have been engaged and interested in industries which have given employment to hundreds of Natives, all of whom are received good images.

Sunday was a very pleasant day and everybody seems to be happy because we as appo't to do lead to the little ones to Christ. Our teacher, Prof. H. H. Bright, was not with us Sunday. He visited the Baptist convention in Murfreesboro. We missed him because he is the principal teacher, but we managed to get through. We visited at his post Sunday and a lovely crowd was out and everybody seemed to be filled with the gospel. Collection. $3. Rev.

Especially were the visitors grateful to G. W. Franklin, Jr., Dr. W. A. Thompson, Prof. W. H. Singleton, J. Milton Easterling, R. W. Allen, J. A. Alexander and Prof. J. James Oldfield. The interest one naturally feel in such places of history as Lookout mountain and Chicamauga park made them grateful for the visit to Chattanooga and the pains which their hosts plotted them to the scenes. Formal resolutions expressed appreciation of the publicity given the meeting by the local papers. THE TOWN IN REVIEW. Counselor Armand W. Scott, Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, will be triumphantly re-elected at the Cleveland convocation which opens on the 26th. He has made a capable officer and should have another term in which to round out the progressive plans he has inaugurated. It is pre-requisite that he be re-elected by acclamation. The District of Columbia is for him, and the rest of the country will be found in line. Rev. A. C. Garner, Right Worthy Grand Chief of the Independent Order of St. Luke, and Mrs. Bessie B. Anderson, District Deputy, headed a harbor command to the Richmond, Va. Golden Jubilee to the Order. They represent a Washington contingent of over 2,000. The outlook at this writing is that Dr. Garner will be retained as Right Worthy Grand Chief. He and the Grand Secretary-Treasurer, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, have worked together as a unit and the order has prospered marvelously under their far-sseeing administration. The Knights of Pythias are having plans drawn for extensive improvements on their hall, 12th and U. Sts, recently acquired from the True Reformers. A change in the main stairway, a reconstruction of the stage, an alteration of the balcony and possibly an elevator, are among the improvements under contemplation. The hall should be made available for dramatic productions, high-class concerts and lectures, as well as for dances. Gen. J. Clay Smith is in charge of the hall, which is now coming to be known to the masses by its new name, "The Pythian," instead of "True Reformer's Hall." Rev L. C. Sheafe, the nation's best Known Seventh Day Advent singing evangelist, is holding a successful tent meeting at 10th and V. streets, drawing large crowds nightly and on Sunday. The Standard Life Insurance Company, with Mr. J. Percy Bond, as local manager, is now occupying its new and commodious quarters in the Industrial Savings Bank building at 11 and U stretches. The company is doing an excellent business, although comparatively new in this vicinity. Mr. S. W. Rutherford, the energetic and thorough-going secretary and general manager of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, was recently presented with a handsome touring car by the appreciative employee of the company. Mr. Rutherford is a liberal "boss" and this fine token is an evidence of his personal activity with his large staff, all of whom are devoted and enthusiastic in their devotion to the enterprise. Mr. Robert H. Rutherford, Vice President, and Mr. E. N. Broadway, district superintendent, are among Research Rutherford's most helpful Heurts ants and field marshals. The history of this institution is one of the most inspiring proofs of the ability of the race to do business on a strictly business basis. Dr. W. J. Howard, Jr. is at home from the officers' training camp at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, on leave. He has just been commissioned as a first lieutenant in the Medical Reserve Corps and presents an impressive appearance in his natty uniform of khaki. He is of the finest stock in the District and will make a name for himself in the national army. The numerous admirers of Rev. John Van Schaik, Jr., are still urging his name in connection with the presidency of Howard University, soon to be vacant by reason of the resignation of Dr. S. M. Newman. Dr. Van Schaik is sound on all questions affecting the Negro and has some constructive ideas in that would prove of inestimable value to our people. As an executive, financier and all-round "mixer" he would give this standard old center of learning an infusion of the "Ziziz" that it stands painfully in need of. Dr. Van Schaik is still "somewhere in France," on a mission for the Red Cross Society. Misses Sylvia Helen and Viola Garner, all daughters of Rev. and Mrs. A. C. Garner, Mrs. Louise A. Guy, wife of M. Nathaniel Guy, the well-known teacher and dramatic genius, Mrs. Ada B. Conn, Miss Edna Bowle and others of the Academy, and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Every week Director Ralph budget. REV. E. R. CARTER, Atlanta, Ga. Pastor Friendship Baptist Church. contains a batch of young colored ladies. The pay averages about $50 per month. The war is enlarging the opportunities of the race for lucrative employment in many ways. Dr. Peter M. Murry, who was recently married to Miss Charlotte M. Wallace, of the public schools, has been exempted from war duty, on the ground of physical unfitness. He is a medical director in the schools. This Bureau acknowledges with thanks the receipt of copy of "La Tribune," of Madagascar to Dependence, published at Tamanarive. The paper is printed entirely in Franch—and looks quite newy. It was sent by oud good friend James G. Carter, United States Consul at Tamanave, Madagascar, where he has made a brilliant record as a diplomat and commercial agent. Mr. Carter was formerly a resident of Brunswick, Ga. Senator James Hamilton Lewis' frank and clean-cut letter of Judge Robert H. Terrell clears up all misunderstanding on the part of the publisher of the book, and the property of a federal investigation of the East St. Louis riots. His speech 1910 This is the likeness of Matthew Maryland, better known as "Sing." He is the lucky baby, who, in a recent contest for $5.00 in gold at the carnival given by Clark Memorial, and Seays Chapel, won out by having received the largest number of votes. The votes were 5c per vote and Matthew received four hundred and twenty-six votes amounting to $21. 30. There were three other babies who received no votes amounting to $22.50. So it can readily be seen that Baby Maryland or "Sing" would have had as many votes as the other three babies if he had only had twenty-four more votes. This baby's residence is 710, 91 Ave., South, and is the son of Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Maryland, who feel proud indeed of their little son, believing that in future years he will bring home thousands upon top of thousands of $5.00 gold pieces and many matthes. Matthew is only one year and seven months old and can do thil at this age what he will do at 21 years. Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Maryland are very greatful to the friends for their votes. on the subject was so garbled in the press reports as to give the impression that he was opposed to having the outrages against the Negro looked into by the national government. On the contrary, Senator Lewis is and is in hearty sympathy with the movement toturn on the light at the eoutset, without waiting for the untying of any red tape, he took the mater up promptly with the Department of Justice and received an assurance that the riots would be carefully inquired into by its agents, in harmony and in union with the republic governor and republican Attorney-General of the State of Illinois. Senator Lewis is a reliable friend of the colored people and can be depended upon to go to the limit of his resources in securing fair play in all things affecting our welfare. Dr. William A. Warbild, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, is captain of the Volunteer Guard Division of the Home Defense League of the District of Columbia. A largely-attended public meeting was held a few night ago in the Armory of the Dunbar High School and the objects of the organization were fully explained. Major Raymod W. Pullman chief of the Washington police department, was among the speakers. Rev. E. F. Boisola, a native Haitian stationed at Iidanapodis, Ind., preached at St. Luke's P. E. Church last Sunday. His theme was "Fatfulh Unto Death," and the instructive sermon was couched in excellent English as well as abounding in ripe thought. Rev. E. B. Gordon has severed his connection with the Interstate Old Folks' Home. The institution has been reorganized under the edirection of a local charity club and is known as The Corcoran Street Old Folks Home. Mrs. Stella Barclay and Mrs. Lena Wilson, of Bowling Green, Ky., have been royally entertained by friends during their stay in the capital. Among those who gave social functions in honor of the charming visitors Mesdames Elbert Williams, Warren Polk, R. W. Thompson and James E. Lockner, with a surprise that he have returned to their homes delighted with Washington's hospitality and countless features of features. Miss Marie A. D. Madre, a teacher in the public schools and president of the District branch of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs addressed the Wage Earners' Association last Sunday afternoon at their headquarters, 704 T. street northwest. Her subject was "Co-operation of Employers and Employees," and her talk was filled with good advice to both sides of its important contribution. She deduced that there are many schools designed to instruct people in the art of being good servants; it is not of less importance that there be some means of instructing others in the art of being good bosses. The right-thinking citizens of the District of Columbia want the ballot. The Washington Times is putting up a stiff fight for the right to vote in this federal reservation and is pointing out that benefits of every kind will come to us if the people here have the ballot. The colored people are taking little or no part in the discussion. Many whites prefer to have the present Congressional and commission form of government to purler s frage, for fear that the votes of the Negroes would hold the balance power and bring on all of the "dangers" of "Negro domination." The recent Queens' Rally Pageant by the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church for the benefit of the organ fund was one of the very best of the series of national history entertainments witnessed here. Mrs. Maria Johnson Willis, wife of Rev. James E Willis, the church's magnetic pastor, won the first prize bringing in $100.00 She impersonated the Queen of Africa. She and the other queen of courthouse courts were dazzling spectacle. It is expected that Mrs. Willis will repeat the pageant at an early date. The credit for the recent production is due in the largest measure to Mrs. Willis Rev. J. E. Willis and David Clark William Slater and Mrs. Jessup chairman of various branches of the work.

PITTSBURGH, PA SPORTING NEWS THE B. H. SWIFTS' NOTES The boys in blue from the East better known as the McGraw men, are coming out of the cellar and as they have trimmed Mr. Ellison's thousand dollar Nationals for two games and walloped Mr. Brown's mighty Maroons for a doubleheader, so are going to Greenwood Sunset, or do doubleheader from the Champion Sox. Ollie said just weighed the Sox and said that they did not have a peep in with the present Swifts. Wild Bill Nesbitt is no doubt the greatest Hillman in the Capital City League and you can prove it by the Maroons and the Nationals, and after Sunday you may ask the Champion Sox about him. He is not only a great pitcher but he is a first sacker from the heart, an excellent fielder and some stick man, I thank you. And what is the matter with Hall. He's all right and just from the corporation hill, where he was raised and that is why he can fall off the hill so cleverly and so much like a big leaguer. Hall, the Swift's giant and speed artist, led the Maroons down the hill and the end 2 to 0, and as he has the size and weight, Rube Foster has already signed him for a trial next season. Kid Johnson, the Swift's great recoverer, did great work for the Swift's behind the bat and aided them in gaining a double victory over the Maroons. Rabbit and Ford were the feature of the games with their sensational fielding and great hitting, and Whit ley and Norris took every chance in the outfield, while Milam, Woodard and Gaines held the infield at bay. SPORTING NOTES Well, the great National Baseball team is certainly going great. The mighty Rube Foster has been in town for the last few days and he succeeded in landing John Charleston, the famous Mooney and Street and Boyd. Captain Hurt is certainly going good, he is certainly viking. They have protected a game against Mighty Nat because Grady, the impire, allowed a man to walk after Mr. Stratton had made a bawlk directly to the batter. The Sox are certainly crying. Fayte Myles is certainly murdering the old ball. He got three hits off the mighty Stratton, a three bagger, a double, a triple, also Curt Hurt got three hits. The Nationals is one of the greatest teams the south has produced in Boyd, Hurt, Street, Charlton, Myles, Mooney, Williams, Merrett, Vaughn, Matthews. No comparison whatever. WE TOLD YOU SO. "That sin will out" is an old proverb. But it does seem that the Divine Providence ultimately brings to light the real character of men in very peculiar ways. When a man has by political trickery and shrewd maneuver reached the top of human society whether in church or state, who is at the same time void of true Christian virtue and these higher moral principles essential to real leadership. In fine, when a man who is a hypocrite, by some irony of fate, is rushed into prominence, if you will give him time he will break his own neck. The poison that is inate the germ of smallpox, break forth into external corruption where everybody can truly judge of internal life. But God does not always bring his exposures through the channels looked for, but often in altogether unexpected ways. If reports are true, some men who have sailed mighty high in the church world who have arraged to themselves exclusiveness of Dictators in things Baptistic, are to be disgraced through the medium of secret Society. If you will hold your ear close to the ground you will hear the rumbling in the Pythian ranks of Arkansas that are destined to bring to light some astounding facts and pull the sheep clothing off the grafting human pirates, who by reason of their hypocrisy have had their poisonous fangs buried deep in the public confidence. The Vanguard, since the Pythian Grand Lodge was held, means to have been considerably unequal. The editorial department of said paper has appeared very nervous about something. We have been unable to account for it unless it is fulfilling the Scriptures that "the wicked feetess when no man pursueth." But the recent revelations and order gossip possibly explains and clarifies the entire situation. The People's Defender will keep in touch with the situation and at the proper time will let the entire cat out of the wallet. Keep your eye on this paper. THE LAST AGE OF TIME. May the Lord help us all to realize that we are now living in the last age of time. The 24th chapter of Matthew is being speedily fulfilled. Jesus tells us that when we see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors," Matt. 24:33, and "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness" into all nations, and then shall the end come." This glad news of Jesus speedy return is foretold in Matthew 24:14 and it is seeping to the earth's remotest bounds. This might fact is being strongly proclaimed to every nation by the saints of the earth, that the final period (and) about to be placed too upon the last page of earth's sin-stained history. This know also that in the last days perilous (dangerous) time shall come. 2 Tim. 3:1. We are now standing upon the threshold of perilous or troublesome time, the tornadoes and other great calamities announce it. Even this old earth herself trembles it forth, for the steady increase of earthquakes is an unmistakable sign of the end. Matt. 24:7. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be famines and besitlements and earthquakes in it, knowing that time that now it is both awake from our sleep for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed the night is far spent, the day is at hand; let us put on the armor of light (righteousness). Rom. 13:11, 12. On the beginning of Jesus' Galilee ministry when he went into the synagogue at Nazareth, the book of the prophet Isaiah (Isalaes) was delivered to him to read. While the eyes of all the people in the synagogue were fastened directly upon him, he had opened eyes and found the book of the prophet it was written, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach the deliverance of the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord, to preach the salvation them, this day is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears." Luke 4:16-21. This passage of Scripture leads me to think that we are now living in "the scrip-lable year of the Lord," and this is the acceptable time to obtain God's salvation for Jesus came in an acceptable day to bless the world. As I foresaid, we are now living in the last dispensation of time, and God's word is now an open book to the world, offering mercy and salvation every creature under his care, but its pages will never open when the Son shall come in power and great glory to judge the quick and the dead. No, there will not be an age after this in which there will be evangelistic campaigns conducted to get people saved. The great day of Judgment is yet in the future, and also the second coming of the Lord. But he will judge the quick and the dead at his appearing. 2 Tim. 4:11. For he has appointed a day in which he will judge the Lord's day. 17:31. The great in which Jesus is coming already been appointed but is known only to the Father himself. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, not, no the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Matt. 24:36. Yet there have been false prophets predicting the immediate coming of Christ and the end of the world by fire, but he neer came, for if people knew that the Lord would come on a certain day there would be beforehand. But he wants us in Matt. 13:35, 36, also in Thess. 5:26 to watch. The final separation between the righteous and the wicked will be made when the Lord appears, so let us who are not ready prepare to meet him when he comes.
