The New York Age. THE INSTITUTE FOR COLORED YOUTH ADMINISTRATION BUILDING AND PRINCIPAL'S HOUSE. THE HISTORY OF THE HOME The image shows a large, open room with a high ceiling. There are several people seated around a table, which is covered with a large number of papers and documents. The room appears to be a conference room or a meeting space, possibly used for discussions or presentations. The walls are plain and there are no visible windows or doors. The lighting in the room is dim, with no visible light sources. The floor is not visible. The overall atmosphere of the room seems quiet and focused. Richard Humphreys, a native of the Island of Tortola, in the West Indies, in early life a slaveholder, and afterwards a citizen of Philadelphia, died in the year 1832, bequeathing the sum of ten thousand dollars to found an institution under the care of members of the Society of Friends, of which also he was a member. ADMINIS "having for its object the benevolent design of instructing descendants of the African race in school learning, in the various branches of the mechanic arts and trades and in agriculture, in order to prepare, fit, and qualify them to act as teachers." The "Institute" was founded in the year 1837, upon the basis of this bequest, which amounted at that time to about thirteen thousand three hundred dollars. In the year 1842 a charter was pro- ```markdown ``` cured from the State of Pennsylvania for "The Institute for Colored Youth." "Slightly after the charter of the Institute had been secured, an additional sum of about eighteen thousand dollars, which had been devised for educational purposes by another Friend, was granted to the corporation. Further sums were contributed by interested Friends from time to time, and in the year 1851 buildings were erected for the permanent establishment and location of the Institute on The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

Lombard street, in the city of Philadelphia, where the schools were conducted until the year 1836. Impressed with the importance of more ample and convenient accommodations, a movement was set on foot to secure them, and a lot of ground was purchased on the North side of Bainbridge street, west of Ninth, in the city of Philadelphia, where a large and commodious building was erected, at a cost, including the ground, of nearly forty thousand dollars. This sum was contributed by a number of interested friends of the Institute. The importance of instruction in the industrial arts having claimed the consideration of the friends of the Institute, and subscriptions having been made for the establishment of this department, a lot of ground adjoining that already held NISTRATION BUILDING AND PRINCIPAL'S by the corporation was purchased and a building erected thereon, and in the year 1889 instruction was commenced in the trades of carpentry, bricklaying, shoemaking, printing, tailoring, typewriting, dressmaking, millinery, and cooking. In 1903 a careful survey of the situation of Negro education convinced the managers that the "supreme need" is for better qualified teachers, and it was concluded to sell the Bainbridge street property and to concentrate the efforts and 1. 已知 $a, b, c$ 为实数,且 $a + b + c = 0$,求 $a, b, c$ 的值。 2. 已知 $a, b, c$ 为实数,且 $a + b + c = 0$,求 $a, b, c$ 的值。 3. 已知 $a, b, c$ 为实数,且 $a + b + c = 0$,求 $a, b, c$ 的值。 INDUSTRIAL BUILDING. funds of the Institute in a first-class normal school. To secure the benefits of a good home environment and some opportunity for agriculture, a farm of 116 acres was purchased at Cheyney, Pa. Two new buildings have been erected, and the dwelling house already on the farm has been put in first-class order. This equipment is believed to be the germ of a very important work for the race—more in keeping with the terms of the original request. LIBRARY. LIBRARY. The teachers of the institute are: Principal, Hugh M. Browne, A. M.; History and Allied Subjects, Alphonso O. Stafford; Agriculture, Charles C. Poindexter; Primary Methods, Olive A.

The latter is used for general school purposes and as a dormitory for the young men. A delay in opening of more than a month was occasioned by retarded building operations, and this delay evidently affected the size of the opening class.

The maximum boarding accommodation at present could not easily exceed fifty, and as the course of study covers two years a small entering class seemed desirable. Some high school training was prescribed as a requisite of admission to the class, and as only one colored child out of a thousand in Philadelphia gets into the High School, the field from which to The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

In addition to a payment of $80 a year to corer-board, each student contributes an hour a day of labor to the institution. 100 The Domestic Department has been assigned to a special committee, and they have organized it under the teacher of domestic science, who is a graduate of Pratt Institute. The dietaries prepared by her and her plans for household management have worked out admirably, and have not exceeded in cost the estimates submitted by her. This cost is less than $10 a month for each person.

The Farm Committee has continued to work the farm so as to improve it, and already marks of this improvement are favorably noted by neighboring farmers. Eventually it is expected that the whole farm will be a part of the educational machinery of the school, but the transition to this condition must be gradual. Allotments of ground for school gardens ```markdown ``` will be made this spring, and some portion of the farming operations will be under the direction of the teacher of agriculture. A new barn is a pressing necessity, and it is hoped that some friends of the cause will be found to supply this need. The religious character of the life at Cheyney has had the care of the board. A Bible class is held regularly on First-days, and right methods for religious instruction in elementary schools are in- culcated. Each day's work is commenced by Scripture reading, and the teachers are all believed to be well concerned for the higher interests. Upon the earnest solicitation of Booker T.

PHYSICS LABORATORY. A preliminary announcement of this has already brought applications from forty teachers. Not more than sixty can be comfortably accommodated, and the number must be limited to this figure. It is estimated that the additional furniture and the cost of maintenance for this summer session will aggregate about $2500. The furniture will be required in any event in the Ninth Month. A very special appeal is made for contributions to carry out this effort to reach THE MUSIC OF THE MUSIC OF THE MUSIC a large number of schools and teachers in the South. The decision to concentrate the resources and activities of the Institute on normal training has had wide approval. The late Dr. Curry represented Normal Training as the greatest educational need of the colored race, and his opinion has so far influenced the Peabody trustees that they are devoting their funds to this end in the South. Such technical training, however, is costly. The accumulated ```markdown ``` funds of the Institute are wholly inadequate for the needs of a first-class normal school. This statement may arouse the suspicion that an extravagant standard has been adopted. It is most unfortunate that the work of the Institute should appear in that light. Even a few teachers of high grade very quickly represent a large circle of influence. A high quality of work in the school-room is the only true economy. The proverbial thriftlessness of the Negro can be supplanted in no way so surely as by training teachers who will apply a remedy in a better standard of living. A trade school near Cheyney devotes a thousand dollars in three years to the training of a single carpenter or machinist. Can we expect to train a good teacher for less? The people of the United States have manifested a pro 1 found faith in the power of the teacher upon civilization in dealing with Cuba and the Philippines. Large sums of money have been used to give several thousands of these teachers some training at our higher institutions and some contact with our ideals of living. The Federal Government, however, never deals with the Negro problem in the same liberal way. It remains for private beneficence, however, to do so. Money invested in good teachers is quickly mul- The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a grayscale photograph of a room with a large window.

It must devolve upon future boards therefore to enter actively upon a campaign for larger resources, if the present lines of work are to be carried forward to maturity. Your retiring board have found their faith increased from time to time in the movement to make a high-class normal school for the colored race, and the work is committed to the corporation and to future boards in a hope that a very large fruition of our faith shall be realized. The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a black-and-white photograph of a room with several people sitting around a table. The focus is on the people, but the details are not clear. The officers of the corporation are: Secretary, George M. Warner, No. 365 Bourse Building, Philadelphia; treasurer, Walter P. Stokes, No. 217 Market street, Philadelphia; board of managers, George Vaux, George Vaux, Jr., Francis B. Gummere, Walter Snudley, J. Houry Hartlett, Davis H. Forsythe, Alfred C. Elkinton, David G.

The effects of the Washington Administration to blunt the known edge of the proposed boycott of American products by the Chinese merchants are meeting with no success. The Administration is thoroughly around to the dangerous character of the boycott, and has strained every diplomatic nerve to influence the action of the Chinese government, which has taken no direct part in the proposed boycott, the initiative having been taken by the Chinese merchants, under the direction, it is supposed, of ex-Minister Wu Ting Fang, who understands thoroughly the American temper. The notice which the President has served on the brutal immigration agents of the Department of Labor and Commerce that they must treat the Chinese in the case with greater respect, and consideration should be less ill effect. And there should be no decent treatment of the Chinese in the unexempt class—those in transit to other countries of North America than the United States, for instance. The barbarous treatment of these latter at San Francisco and on the Canadian border, as we have witnessed it, is a diagrace to the Republic. One of the commonest and meanest pastimes of the American hoodlum, of the man and boy sort, is to camp on the hooks and to provide in every conceivable way known to the viciously deprived, persons against whom they take a dislike. It is invariably a member of some race they dislike. The Jew, the Chinaman, and the Negro are their peculiar aversion. It is latter has plenty of it whenever he gets into a situation where the hoodlum thinks he has no business. In Chicago last week a new black policeman was the object of hoodlum attack. He stood a lot of the outrage, and to escape it left the street car or which he was the hoodlums followed him and their mobulism rapidly augmented by other riff-raff of their sort in the streets. When their doings became intolerable the policeman pulled his gun and began to fire into the crowd. When his ammunition was exhausted the hoodlums mobbed him nearly by death, but he was ultimately rescued by fellow-officers. The policeman did right. He did not kill enough of the hoodlums. The hoodlums are a sort of mob, and all mobs should have cold lead, and plenty of it, pumped into them. Mr. Charles W. Anderson qualified on July 1 as Internal Revenue Collector for the second district of New York. Strangely enough, the bottom did not drop out of Manhattan and the sun did not refuse to shine on the just and the unjust. And there were no frills necessary to the qualification ceremonies. None of the employees left their employment and bolted for the door. They stuck to their desks and to their salaries. None of the patrons of the office refused to do business at "the old stand," but the usual long line of them took their turn. More than this, Mr. Anderson found all sorts of flowers and tolernums of congratulations in the office when he entered it, and the daily papers announce that there were as many tokens of good will from Demographs as from Republik, which he made up. Think of that. And carry the news to Senator Tillman, and his sort. All this marks a revolution in the political condition of the Afro-Americans of New York and the North and West. The elements of it we shall discuss at another time. --- A New York judge, in sentencing a black burglar with a long list of criminal acts to his credit, remarked, in sentencing the criminal to twenty years in the penitentiary, that it was fortunate for the criminal that he was not in the South, where he came from, as the chances were that he would have been lynched. The man got what was coming to him, and what every man who breaks the law as he did should. But was the judge within his rights in the lecture he gave the man? We think not. It was none of the judge's business what sort of treatment the prisoner would possibly have received in some jurisdiction other than the one where his crimes were committed. To suggest that he may have been lynched the South suggest that he would have been too good for him even in New York, and a judge who can think that way is unworthy to occupy a place on the New York Bench, and should be degraded from his high office. It is our opinion that New York judges deal too freely in off-hand lectures to prisoners anyway. They are not made judges, by election or appointment, to lecture prisoners, but to sentence them when, on a fair trial, they have been convicted of violating the law. The death of Albion W. Tougee throws into the limelight the splendid service he rendered the Republic, our general literature and the historians of the future by the pictures he drew of the horrors perpetrated in the Reconstruction period by the malcontents who were embittered by defeat in the War of the Rebellion and were determined to retrieve by murder, arson and fraud the control of the local governments which they had forfeited by their treasonable actions. No amount of suppression which the late President McKinley would have wished to worship of the men of the South who were conspicuous in the War to destroy the Union of the States, by word of mouth and by appointment to high and responsible positions under the Government, was potent to wipe out the fact that these men, almost to a man, were responsible in one way and another for the existence of the Ku Klux Klan and the failure of the Reconstruction policy, which so despicable a creature as Thomas Dixon has labored earnestly to glorify. Thomas Dixon has written his own name to infamy and the facts on which he built his fiction—glory of love for truth and glory of literature but for love of falsehood and glory of malice and mischief that can easily degenerate into bickled upon occasion. Judge Tougee and Thomas Dixon both made North Carolina the scene of their fiction. The one was alien and the other native to the soil. One was a literary artist, who used facts around which weave stories that should body forth social conditions of a specific time and place which the historian could appeal to with certainty that he would not be misled Thomas Dixon, on the basis of his destruction, the value of his fiction by falsifying the facts upon which he based it, and by displaying a venomous malice invariably the sign-manual of a narrow and dangerous soul. The work of such a man as Judge Tougee will live after him. The work of such a creature as Thomas Dixon is likely to die before the author stumbles upon the dissolution of his flesh: Russian has her hands full of trouble. The war in the East, in which the Japanese have won every battle on land and sea since the beginning of hostilities, has been supplemented all along with great discontent among the Russian people. Mutiny in the navy, discontent in the army, aspirations among the laboring people in the cities and the peasants in the country, with official corruption and incompetence in all of the departments of the government and a weak and vacillating ruler at the head of affairs, makes a situation entirely desperate, which approximates in some sort to the conditions that prevailed in France immediately anterior to the outbreak of the French Revolution, the most far-reaching in its consequences, near and remote, in the History of mankind. The thoughtful men What's in a name? A hone, especially when applied to a race of people or the descendants of a race of people. In another column of THE Ann to-day Mr. J. O. Dixon takes up the subject of the proper race designation, which has been much discussed in the columns of THE Ann in the past, and undertakes to make us believe that the term Negro is plenty good enough. We don't see it. The Africans and the descendants of them in the United States are not Negroes, and they] and their ancestors were not Negroes in Africa, and would not be called such if they should or could or would return to Africa. As a matter of fact, the lowest type of African is regarded in Africa as the Negro type. Why should we of the African race in this country be called in our race designation by the highest number of the highest type of African? How should the white man who finds gave the title to the race wished to describe the color and facial expression and hirsute texture of the people; since which the race so described has been and is so regarded by publishers and literateurs everywhere as a common noun; and no amount of permanual or cursing will make them regard it as a proper noun. We are not Negroes; we are Afro-Americans, and will be so designated in the future. The people of Georgia have the lynching habit so badly that they cannot abstain from it for any considerable length of time without a sense of great loath to the general galaxy of the Commonwealth. One day recently a mob broke the jail at Watkinsville, the jail making no show of resistance, took nine prisoners out in the yard, stood them up against a fence and riddled eight of them with bullets, the ninth escaping as by a wristacle. One of the mesh shot was a white shirted man. Two of the victims were charged with murder and one with attempted criminal assault; while the others were charged with petty offenses. The jail was cleaned out by the mob. And what will the demagogic Governor Terrell do about it? The sentiment of the country has set its face against lynch law. The State that tolerates it will forfeit the good opinion of the people of the country. There has been a period of the past six months; there should have been. There is no excuse for lynching of alleged criminals at any time. Perhaps Secretary Taft will now see that the mob in Georgia, at least, is not moved the law's delay, but by savage instinct. The death of Secretary of State John Hay is an event which has touched the pulse of the civilized world, comprehended in his diplomatic activity during the most twelve years. The services he rendered the American people in the direction of their diplomatic affairs for quite eight years, in the transition period of the Republic from an insular to a world power, were great indeed, and are appreciated by the whole people and acknowledged officially by the Great Powers of the world. As the private secretary of President Lincoln Mr. Hay rendered public service of a sort as valuable as those in diplomacy rendered in his mature years, as in literature, it is probable that his ministry will not unite his life of Lincoln, done in collaboration with Mr. Nicolay; but he did much other literary work in prose and poetry of a high order, the permanent value of which time alone can determine. A great force in American life has disappeared with the death of Mr. Hay. --- Secretary of War William H. Taft and a large party of distinguished ladies and gentlemen have started upon a trip to the Philippine Islands, where elaborate arrangements for their entertainment have been made. The party will stop at Tokyo on the way and be entertained by the Mikado and other high Japanese functionaries. They will also visit other joints in Japan. In the Philippines Secretary Taft will find plenty of hard work to do, as he will not find conditions as he left them, the Southern element of the American colony having got into the saddle as soon as Governor Wright took over the Government after the departure of Governor Taft, and much confusion and some blood letting have been the outcome. Secretary Taft, will get a warm welcome from the Filipinos, and a small section of the American residents, but a very small part, a clear majority preferring that he keep himself in the United States. They had no good blood for the Secretary when he was Governor, and they have now been given the opportunity for this dislike, as Governor Taft had down as his policy and cleared to it that the Filipinos were for the Filipinos. By these latter he was regarded with peculiar affection, because he protected them in their rights and persons from desolation by the greedy Americans. These will bear a long-drawn sigh when Secretary Taft finishes his job in the Philippines and turns his face towards the United States again. Referring to the recent editorial in THE AGE on the appointment of Pearl Wright to be the Louisiana member of the National Republican Committee, by Chairman Cortelyou, as among his last acts as Chairman of the Committee, ex-Governor P. B. S. Pinchback, who was in New York the past week, remarked to the writer that it was Hon. Walter L. Cohen who made the condition possible which Chairman Cortelyou took advantage of in shoving him out of the Committee. That puts another aspect on the matter. But we still think that Chairman Cortelyou was unjust in displacing the Committee. The Committee was when the National Committee made up the roll of delegates for the Chicago delegation it recognized the Cohen delegation and placed them on the temporary roll of the Convention. The Louisiana delegates recognized promptly organized and elected Mr. Cohen as the Louisiana member of the Committee. This was regular and could only be violated by Mr. Cohen's failure to assert his rights in the open convention when the list was called. When the question of the Louisiana contest came before the Convention the action of the National Committee was reversed, in as far as the sentencing of the Cohen delegation, a half of the white being given to the Lily white things. This did not vitioin in the least, however, Mr. Cohen's selection as a member of the National Committee. When the clerk of the Convention called for the name of the Louisiana member of the Committee Mr. Cohen, instead of standing up for his rights and announcing his selection, allowed the matter to be passed over for future consideration by the Louisiana delegation. Here is where Mr. Cohen lost his case. When the two delegations met to decide the matter all of the Cohen delegates voted for him again and all of the Lilywhite things voted for a man of their own stripe. Under these conditions there was no election and Chairman Cortelyou was given a full immunity which existed solely because Mr. Cohen failed to assert his right at the convention. Everything we have lost in the politics of the country since the war was lost in just that way. We have ourselves and not others to blame for the imobile place to which we have fallen in American politics. T, THOMAS FORTUNE From the New York Tribune. One of the most important experiments in the employment of labor that has ever been made in a Northern State is now being worked out in Derroit, Michigan, where one of the harvest factories in the city employing female help is filled only with Negro workers. The result of years of observation and study by the factory owners, this experiment has now reached a point where it presages the revolutionizing of factory life, and opens to hundreds of thousands of colored girls in the North the promise of a field of labor, heretofore practically closed against them. Since the beginning of the experiment seven months ago almost every colored girl in Detroit has applied for a place, and to-day it is frankly admitted that if the doors of other Detroit factories were thrown open to colored workers, hundreds of employees could be secured who would work for less than white girls now demand. In view of the fact that the experiment of the Progressive Knitting Mills has proved that colored girls are particularly adapted for factory work. Detroit employers and thousands of young faces face a problem at the present moment. This innovation in a Detroit factory was made only after an investigation by members of the firm which covered a period of several years. One of these members went personally among Negro families, and for a long time made acquaintance with Negro women. This investigation revealed the fact that of the 7,000 colored people of the city of Detroit there were at least 1,000 young women willing to accept employment of almost any kind. Many of these girls were well educated. Each year the Detroit public schools have been graduating colored girls, but the investigation showed that after leaving school these girls were unable to secure employment where their education might be of value to them. They were barred from store, and offices, and in one institution where it was proposed to bring if a colored girl clerk, a dozen white girls threatened to go away. Not only young women of education, but others of considerable talent, were found holding mental positions which barely provided them with a livelihood, and it was believed by the proprietors of the factory that the woman whom would be into factory life the creature would be highly gratifying. Soon after this it was advertised that a new factory, just completed by the company, would employ only colored girls. Immediately hundreds responded, and of these nearly a hundred were chosen and set to work. At the present time the Progressive Knitting Mills present a most unusual object lesson. Of the hundred girls employed there eighty have received fairly good school education. Nearly a score are either high school or college graduates, and only recently one young woman left the factory to become a teacher at the normal school at Yusidani. The factory numbers among its employees two girls who have been graduated in photography under one of the best professional photography schools in the country, have been unable to secure employment in a photographic establishment on account of their color. Among the one hundred girls there are nearly forty who play up some musical instrument, half of them being pianists. In their leisure hours three of these teach music. Already seven of the Knitting Mill girls have formed themselves into an orchestra, which will soon number twelve pietes. Two of the colored girls employed are china painters, one is a young woman who has won local fame as a stage manager, another is an educator of considerable ability. Numbered among the workers are ten girls who are mainly female, mainly theatrical, and it is said that two of these will soon leave the factory to net in vaudeville. Fifty per cent. of the girls are well read in current literature and the best authors. In the factory they earn from five to eight dollars a week. The output from the factory has steadily increased, and has now reached a point never before equalled in the history of the Mills. At the beginning many of the girls came to the factory as early as 6:15 o'clock in the morning, but the employers did not believe they were promiscuous. would now. Now, each promiscuous half of the girls at work at 6:20 o'clock, half an hour earlier than they are required to be at their tables, and during the whole seven months only two girls have reported late. --- Mississippians Will Have Special Pullman Cars to New York. The letter which follows, written by Charles Banks, third vice-president of the National Negro Business League, and a prominent Negro banker of Mississippi, to Bocker T. Washington, president of the National organization, will be found of interest. Mr. Banks, in connection with others of his Mississippi friends, recently organized at Jackson Miss., the Mississippi State Business League to be affiliated with the National Negro Business League. The report of that meeting shows that there is widespread interest everywhere in the coming meeting of the National Negro Business League, to be held in the Palm Garden, 25th street and Lexington avenue, New York, August 16, 17 and 18. Mr. Banks writes: My Iqar Mr. Washington: I have the honor formally to report to you on the meeting of the Mississippi, a Negro Business League held in the city of Greenville on the 14th and 15th of June. The meeting was in every way a success. The daily papers gave us much notice, the Democrat, the leading Democratic daily newspaper of the delta, giving its entire front page to the first day's proceedings and to my address. The colored press was largely in evidence, every paper in the State being represented at the reception in the Indianapolis Preeminent a special representative number of visitors from Arkansas, headed by Mr. J. E. Bush, and from Louisiana were in attendance. The total number of delegates present, aside from citizens of Greenville, was about 1550. I was elected president and Mr. Isaiah T. Montgomery is chairman of the executive committee. Almost every Negro business man in Mississippi of any standing was present or represented. I desire now to thank you and Mr. Scott, the corresponding secretary, for the interest manifested in our efforts here, also for the timely telegram, which was duly received and read before the meeting. Twenty-five delegates, including myself, were elected to attend the New York meeting, and will be in a special Pullman meeting. Memphis. The number of Mississippi who will attend, however, will, in all probability, exceed the number elected to go. I made it plain to the meeting that we only want as representatives of the State organization, and that any and all of the rest of those engaged in business enterprise were eligible and their attendance was desired.

C., July 29, 1918—When war broke out between Russia and Japan the popular sympathy of the United States went with almost one accord to Japan from the beginning. And this in spite of the glaring fact that brown people were fighting with white people. Color did not come to cut any less at all in favor of Russia on against Japan. The sublime audacity of Japan captured the popular imagination, carried by storm. American popular sympathy and sentiment. It was another clash of David and Goliath. It was forty-five millions of people throwing down heavily the gauntlet to one hundred, and thirty millions. It appeared the youth attacking with dauntless courage and purpose a veteran anguished with their war. With the war, America downed altogether whee this exhibition of National nerve or temerality or not, did not matter for the honour, as she did with kindling eyes recognition, as innocent, asAgainst the war, as we would have seen for a thousand years. Curiosity enough, although this pre-Japanese feeling on the part of America was in the making, the well informed and intelligent. New in America eighteen months ago knew much about Manucuria, or Korea, or Port Arthur, much less about their relationship to it, and the underlying cause and motives of the war. All these the public has learned since, thanks to the press. Right popular feeling came before right sound, and was not produced by it. It was indeed deepened and strengthened by it. By a clear knowledge of the true inwardness of hostilities, it led up naturally, inevitably, to the breaking out of hostilities between the two nations. While this pro-Japanese sympathy in America was general, it was not universal. Our sympathy went out to Russia in the beginning. We ourselves, have to confess to a sneaking predication for Russia—not for Russian autocracy and bureaucracy, but for the Russians admired the Japanese, wished them nothing but good, but we had for Russia something more than admiration. We had for it and we have for it to-day something very much like such a feeling? We think not, and at any rate we do not feel ashamed of it. How is this feeling to be accounted for? We cannot account for it wholly, but we know Russia played in the game of European politics and diplomacy on the side of the American Union during the great Rebellion of 1861 and undoubtedly something to do with our soiling. Although the small boy in Ireland was small in head and had all manner of demonstrations in our waters in favor of the North, and therefore in favor of the freedom of the slaves, we were grateful for that act of friendliness for Emperor Alexander, and for all manner of demonstrations of a contrary character. And then, too, we remember the emancipation of the serfs. It happened when it happened. It became for all manner of hope for freedom for our own lives in America. The two great acts of freedom, the emancipation of the serfs in Russia and the emancipation of the slaves in America, came in home way indisputably. We are still associated with understand, how the two acts are associated in the mind of a child situated with the colored race of the slaves and among the children they are still associated with the children of the children we own to manipulate and now past mid-age. Well, we hope not. there are other reasons why we were in India, why we are deeply interested in the greatest of the poets of Russia, and in the greatest of the poets of America, like the humble colored man who came on one side of his ancestors and on the other side of his ancestors and Negro blood. He was therefore colored man in America. Behind and being at the same time and poet of Russia, is it surprising that we are not psychological for our priests in Russia and Japan, and then were we mistaken? that Russia, the only great white people in the world, is not analysed the world, the Negro and the singular statement be founded not something to remember in a colored man who notes at the world over by all of the white nations of Europe and the answer may be this. This is the superior humanity of Russia to her lack of opportunity. Negroes have not been in the path of Russian agitation between Russia and the difference between American may be purely but accident sometimes makes between cult and humane view. And so you see we still feel for Russia, or rather for Russia still stalks to be taken as a Russian Tolstoi, that with the soul of an artist, and with the breast of a peasant, bigger-smelled, the biggest-minded, the seventeenth century discipline of Nazareth; Tolstoi, the friend of the poor down-trodden of the world that great evangelist for this prelaceous gift. For Russia has put mankind under obligations to her because of this gift and good and true man. Where are they in an affection for Russia? We will not try to help it have no affection for Russia but believe and believe, worldly off were they both dynamified so thoroughly, blown so everlast? questions that not a fragment of their mind between two nations, but rather between the two nations, but the despotic power of this other, became no Japanese in our sympathy for Japanese success, instead of the colored American with a colored mind. It was from the beginning with a question with them of a colony. It was not a colony, but a brown war with a race of white men. The man seemed because of their desire to them, the race of white men. And so they eastened long望 to and without a thought on the side of ages the white races of the and been carrying them roughly. them down, preceding had been their oppressors; and now suddenly, threatened upon the scene, upon the far wall, a built up to all that they could call a built up to all that they could expression, to hurt to the ground suddenly of as much violence and suffering as much race, grief and pain in the vast and prostrate Russia. In these, the colored people of America looked and listened with helpless silence, hidling in distant field of battle, with rolled westward from that thresh of strife and struck with strife and many guns, confused fear of many, with terrible din and fury of the earth, beneath, there and the earth beneath, there and the earth beneath, there and wall of victory and defender, same every time from trumpbant the army of wickedness and inhumanity, goes up to heaven that the red sword of God is not stayed nailed Liberty and Justice to the grave, but to death, and to make men, brown men and white men and black men, brother again. Go forth, then, ye little brown men, conquering and to conquer. Sheath not your bloody scourge. You shall overthrow your bloody scourge. You shall overthrow your overthrow, and yet again shall ye overthrow old world aggression. Ye have thrown Russia down, ye are destined to throw down the earth. Ye have destined to just of pwer, to bring down to the dust the mighty of the earth. God is on your side, the mystic tides of human affairs which flow from beneath Ils throuse are to empire, to primary among the peoples and the nations of the world. To-day we see through a glass darkly, but to-morrow ye see through a glass now, but to face, and the face which shall be the body of the brown face of a mighty race awaying the world. ARCHIBALD H. GRIMKE. When Not To Divide - School Funds. When Afro-American's Contribution In Larger Than Their Allocation No Dividends, Therefore, in Georgia- That Horse Story No Pake Regular Correspondence of The Age. ATLANTA, GA., July 10.—There are thirty-eight counties in the State of Georgia in which Afro-Americans pay more poll taxes than white men, in some of these counties the payments being three to one in favor of the Afro-American. The total poll tax amounts to $340,808, aid of this amount a little less than half, or to be specific, $114,773, must be put down to the credit of the black man. Moreover, the aggregate value of the whole property returned for taxation by Georgia Afro-Americans amounts to $15,957,334. The tax on this amount is to be added to that above named for poll, and the total represents the demonstrable taxation of the people of color of the State. Aside from this provable taxation is that which is paid into the treasury collaterally or indirectly. The tax on liquor dealers and that arising from the purchase of property all goes into the common school fund and two-thirds of it should be placed to the credit of Afro-Americans, for over two thirds of the State contributions, say that about that proportion of the fund that inclubes but does not cheer goes down colored men's threats. The total State appropriation for both the state and the common school fund is $1,753,434. The colored schools received about one-fifth of it, or about as much as colored men pay in poll taxes and indirectly in collateral taxes and involve poll taxes in the form of a direct-term member of the Georgia Legislature, with a longing to occupy a niche in the hall of fame, has signified his intention to introduce a measure to apportion the punishment by each race. If such a bill should really become law it would result in untold good for the colored schools, if they actually learn to all property. The bill will hardly get further than the committee room, as has been the rate of similar bills proposed in other Southern States when investigation of that Afro-American would impel such a law, have such handsome school minds. In the counties first mentioned must be included Meflille, the home of Thoms E. Watson, in which the Afro-Americans pay $550 and the white voters pay $733. It is interesting to note these counties: in the district represented by Congressman Hardwick, that other apostle of disfranchisement and destruction: Columbia: colored $1,270, white $252; Hancock: colored $892, white $874; Jefferson: colored $1,500, white $1,483; Lincoln: colored $802, white $645; Talliferro: colored $825, white $413, and Warren: colored $1,132, white $740. These figures are taken from the annual report of the controller general of the State. Some time since, in this correspondence, mention was made of one peculiar form, the point being that a horse owned by a colored man could not drink at a particular part of a drinking trough without damage to his owner. The esteemed New York Times, in a moment of undoubted facetiousness, preferred to regard the story as a work of art or something. If we have not been misinformed, one or possibly two of the brightest and heinlast people connected with the Times formerly lived in Georgia and should have been consulted before any such damaging funtitude was let loose in the columns of that great paper. They knew, and would no doubt have verified the story on general principles. The incident was literally. But why question that story when prejudice assumes almost as peculiar forms every day? A half dozen colored nurses may say that they have never seen or protest arists from the white passengers. An Afro-American or a gore of them may drink out of the glass in the smoking car, white man, white man, white man, but nobody seems to think anything of it. But those same people could not drink out of the same glass at in soda containers, and maintain, and keep them safe if any one of these colored men, being Christians and desiring to fulfill the Commandments, should offer to drink out of the sacramental cup on communion bread, and feel that on many street car lines the conductor will pick up the dog of the small white boy and let it ride on the platform, and young colored American had best leave his curtain at home when he essays a trip on the street car. In some saloons an Afro-American dead body and an African body and about five feet from the counter. And as if carrying the thing to the grape, it will be noted that an Afro-American dead body and bodies repose or at least not dear them—for some inexplicable reason. There are scores of instances in which a like prescription obtains against an Afro-American or his worldly friend. The Afro-American has the reminiscence of reason or justification. Some of them are carried so far that they appear ludicrous. The Afro-American citizen spends a good deal of his time trying to find an answer to the question of why he may go before he enters on it in this day of senseless discrimination. These frictional discriminations are not reported to so much because they are necessary as because there is a neverending desire to show that the races They sometimes prove as leksom to the white man as to the Afro-American, as was shown by an incident in this city in the ago. A white man, the most prominent of the town, sat on a seat reserved for Afro-American on a street car. The conductor requested him to move up, further, but was met with a refusal. The prominent citizen was told that and allowed there were no colored passengers on the car and that technically he "was riding separated from them," as the statute contemplated, but under bond to answer at another court. H. MALONE. MISSING THESE FORMULAS MAY HAVE HAPPENED IN THE WEEK AGO. THE QUEEN WOULD BE BILLED THE DIRECTOR OF A NEW REGION FOOTBALL AND VEGETABLES. HONOUR NOT BE HAD WHERE YOU GOT GOTTEN AS WOMEN. STATE CORRESPONDENCE OF THE ACA. FUENTE-CASANO, Yen., June 29, 1945, memory does not play me well, it was the inimitable Vole, of the renowned musical combination of Cole and Johnson, who used to sing a song of Chicken that has occurred to me at almost every meal I have met in Venezuela. The composer told in most pathetic strains of a longing for the fowl in question, that clung to the hero of the song through his trying vicissitudes in many quarters of the globe, through storm and shipwreck and many other trials. Unfortunately for the hero, he evidently did not strike the coast of Venezuela, also even his yearning would have been satisfied, that is, if he went up against the same men that I have encountered. Not that there is any valid objection to be urged against the chicken itself, but when one is confronted with roast chicken on Monday, fried chicken on Tuesday, boiled chicken on Wednesday, friedseed chicken on Thursday, chicken a Maryland on Friday, chicken a in Venezuela on Saturday and chicken in a pie for a change on Sunday, it is suggestive at least of the once popular play called "Too Much Johnson," without any reflection on the musical combination aforesaid. The reason for the ubiquity of the fowl in the fare is that in point of quality and wholesomeness it is far superior to the meats, the beef being coarse-grained and tough as a rule, and lamb of a good quality difficult to obtain. Pork is plentiful, but hardly suitable for a hot climate. Fish is an acceptable substitute for fowl once or twice a week, being fresh and palatable. Turtle of several varieties, gaze chops, duck breast, and pork are excellent for wild and tame fowl serve to diversify the monarchy, but nevertheless it is a rare date that passes without chicken on the menu. The fashion in northern climes, breakfast tooda being unknown, and in the absence of good milk hardly desirable. The first meal, a beverage with rolls and butter or cheese. Some people prefer the "arena" or native bread made of crushed hominy. There is also meal cake, mixed with bread, and in Carpaccio, called "funchil," which has been introduced into Venezuela. The name is said to be of African origin and the dish was first brought to the West Indies and South America. The coffee latte, alive product, of course, and though the flavor at first strikes the newcomer as strange, somewhat resembling a coffee latte, it is often turned to R. The tropical fruits, such as pimples, oranges and bananas, make a welcome addition to the first meal, though one must beware of the latter, of which the coffee latte is the most dangerous in them leading to troubles of the liver. The "papayao," or fruit of the papay树, resembling a melon, will be found refreshing and of plump flavor, if the taste for it is acquainted. As early rising risks the health of the body, diligence in them leading to troubles of the meat is served between 7 and 8 A. M. The next hour can be spent outdoors without discomfort, though for excursions of any distance it is better to sit on the floor, with pillows, until the next meal is served until 1 p. m. During these hours occurs the second meal, or "almerozo," which is in effect an early dinner, consisting of soup, fish or roast, meat and vegetables, until the third meal, or "clock comes," or the late dinner, which is often as substantial a meal as the "almerozo," though foreigners find it better to spike the late meal lighter, omitting the meat, and eating the vegetables, stuffed peppers or onions, with rice and a salad. Those partial to vegetable salads are able to indulge in them all the year round, and lettuce, tomatoes, beans, onions and cucumbers, are the most popular. The latter, or alligator pear, also makes a rich salad, to be eaten with discretion. Rice and beans are the simple vegetables, though the former is imported. It being the Eastern United States, it is not a native country. Sweet potatoes are a native product and come in various colors, white, yellow, red and purple, of fairly good flavor, but not comparable to the North Carolina potato. It is also one of some other native vegetables of the year family, one of the latter variety, called "counsel" or "famine." Is palerized and served baked in pie form, reminding one of pumpkin baked in buckwheat (time but not time in things like the "plarano" or plantain, of which there are many varieties, some of which are known in the United States as bananas. The backbone of the "celerian diet consists of baked, baked or fried. In the first way, browned with "papelon," the native sweetening, it is not to be sneezed at, and more to the point, it does not seem to give any real benefit. It is a prerequisite, remaining its tempting and satisfying qualities with a constancy that seems to justify the claims for it as the most nearly perfect food product. Banana flour is an excellent addition, after desiccation by which it is prepared as a nutriment for infants and invalids. Many of the native fruits appeal more favorably to the unconventional palate after cooking, baking, welcome, additions as well. Among these are guava, citron, cherries, bananas and several unknown varieties, including a spiceless of nuts. Some cultivars take an interest in the fruit, in raw form, but are difficult to eat. The exuberance of its price, which prompted some claim to declare that the only proper place for eating it is in a bartender, but the taste is not so good. When one rude foreigner said that eating a mango reminded him of chewing a paint brush, he torsely, if somewhat inegently, hit the nail on the head, as the prey were. The mango is a fruit that and the fibrous pit answers well for the brassy sensation. The "utapier" or "Capodilla" is more easily consumed and in flavor a between are between of sweet and pear. There are between of sweet and muskmelons, resembling our water and muskmelons, but inferior in size and flavor, especially the former fruit. From one of these melon-like fruits, we can see the nutrition of food and drink, by removing the pulp and seeds and combining them with water and juice, with sweetening and wine or rum as a flavor, which reminds one of food and fruit—because it is so different, perhaps. The native sugar apparently used, called "papelon," is brown in color, and retails in small cones, from one cent up, and has a sweet flavor. It is sold in less than 10% losses. There is also a sugar lighter in color and more like the brown sugar used in the United States. White lint or cut sugar is a fairly, the nearest approach to it in taste. It is also sold in a rior grade; sold at the principal drug stores at 25 cents a pound. Ten can also retail at the pharmacies in small quantities, though a fair quality is imported in pound form. One more song is suggested by the ubiquity of the bean in the daily menu, and no one can safely assert that the Venezuelans do not know beans, as they frilled and "caramelized" them as well, as frilled beans and side. There are red beans, black beans, white beans, but hardly beans and various other varieties, but hardly beans in Boston style, national dish, marinade, turkey in preparation, through the black beans known and is excellent eating, is "hallaca," a kind of glorified tamale, resembling its constituents the mincemeat of New England. It is hominy paste with appellizing, while the inerior may be simply the minced-meat of the ordinary every day variety, or the chopped chicken and turkey reserved for the holiday meal. It is raisins, olives, almonds and aples. Properly made, it is a poem to the palate. The chief collection found by foreigners in Venetian cooking in the two liberal use of wine becomes accounted to these little additions and ceases to look for hot blancs and corn mash; corngarry beef hash and corn mash; corngarry beef hash and thankful for chicken and rice and beans, with the ever-pleasing plantain, and so an extra grace for any variation. *Parmesan*.

The Boston Transcript: "Dr. Sinclair has written of the citizenship of the Negro not only as he sees and feels it, but as it appears from the point of view of history." The 39. Louis Globe-Democrat: "It is a book which is ardently, earnest, and fairly written, and should prove of interest to the readers of both races concerned. The Columbia (S. C.) State: "The book possesses a real value. It is, perhaps, the fullest and best expression of the point of view of a Negro that has been published." The Cincinnati Times-Star: "As a work of reference the broad scope of the book makes it valuable." The Army and Navy Journal: "Dr. Sinclair discovers but only a subtle and frank-memorable intelligence and philosophic spirit essential elements of what is commonly termed the Negro quotient." He is fair and plain-spoken in his pleas in behalf of his race, which he contends, is entitled to a larger measure of justice, sympathy and encouragement than it has yet received, and he makes out a case which reasonable men will recognize as deserving."

Y. City Has Just Issued $50,000 worth of 6 per cent. Gold Bonds secured by a First Mortgage of $100,000 on Real Estate owned by the Company. PAR VALUE, $10.00 MATURITY VALUE, $16.00 Bonds Mature in 1915 The Bonds are issued in the convenient denominations $10.00, designed for those wishing to invest from time to time small amounts. All Bonds mature in ten years, and are guaranteed an annual interest of six per cent. payable in April and October of each year. The Company has arranged to issue deposit slips to those who are not in a position to pay cash for the Bonds when bought, which will be held by the purchaser until the Bonds bought are paid for, at which time the Bonds will be delivered. In addition to this the holder of ten Bonds or more, will be allowed to surrender at any time from one to three, and receive the amount in cash. They may also make special arrangement for a shorter time than is required to mature the Bonds. This will enable investors to make a six per cent, guaranteed investment and still keep their money subject to their withdrawal, just as though it were in the bank. In making these arrangements we believe that we have thus devised the most satisfactory method for parties of small means to invest in our securities, ever offered to our people, and we trust that they will take advantage of our liberal terms. No less than five Bonds can be bought on the part payment plan. Orders for Bonds by mail must be sent to the Treasurer at the Home Office. Money may be sent by Money Order or Registered Letter, addressed to the Company. P. SHERIDAN BALL, Pres L, C COLLINS, Sec.; JOHN H. ATKINS, Treas.

Mr. Root Scoops Mr. Hancock Mr. Root Successes Mr. Hay. The President has designated Hon. Elllu Root of New York to be the successor of the late Hon. John May as Secretary of State. Mr. Root has had much Cabinet experience, and when he retired from the position of Secretary of War not long ago President Roosevelt declared that he was capable of filling any position in the Cabinet. Queerly enough, it was declared along with the announcement that Mr. Root is to be Secretary of State that he is also the choice of President Roosevelt to succeed him in the White House. It is a far cry to the next National Convention, and a great many things that enter into the question of the selection of a candidate for the Presidency will drop with a dull thud before the Convention City is again reached. And it is far too hot to think about who will succeed Theodore Roosevelt as President, especially so as he may be a candidate to succeed himself. Race Biota in New York. Race riots are too common in New York city, and the police department is largely responsible for them, as it managed in one way or another to take sides with the aggressors in the moth which is usually composed of Irish people and miscellaneous hooligans who have a grudge against the Jews or Afro-Americans who live in their section or who stay into it. Last Sunday, at noon, a riot of big dimensions was provoked in the Ninth avenue section by a white man, who bears a bad record, and who assaulted a black longhairman. The latter got his gun and defended himself, wounding his assailant. The policeman on the beat arrested the black man, after a warm time of it, and broke out in all directions. The police arrested two white men and six Afro-American men and one woman. The latter was very "handy" with her "gun," it is said. The police then ordered all black folk to remain indoors. Why didn't they order all white folk to do likewise? We need some sort of effective civic organization in New York to protect the interests of those Afro-Americans who are assaulted by hoodlums, molled by the police and railroaded by the courts, as was done in the Hell Kitchen riots a year ago, and as was done last Sunday, as far as the hoodlums and police are concerned. Shall we have the organization? It is "up to" us to protect the members of the race who are molled by hoodlums, clubbed by the police and railroaded by the courts. Inception and Development of Our Schools in New York. We print on sixth page of THE AEC today a historical article from Mr. S. R. Scottron which old New Yorkers will greatly appreciate, as perhaps no better historical review has been written by any one of the inception and development of schools for Afro-Americans in the State of New York. It is to be regretted that Mr. Scottron has carried into the discussion, as far as our Fort. Fortune is concerned, an frony and sarcasm which, while being admirable and appreciative from our point of view, appear to us from the facts in the case to be unwarranted. We grant all that Mr. Scottron says of the development of our schools before the initiation of the public school system in New York State, and even that under the public school system of New York the separation of blacks and whites was not recognized in law. So much we grant. Mr. Scotton admits that while the law gave to Afro-American children the same rights in the public schools as it gave to the children of other citizens, the former, for reasons dominating, had preferred not to attend white schools, so that ultimately their right to do so lapsed by preprisonment. It is not a matter of irony or sarcasm that our Mr. Fortune, about 1850, in asuming the editorship of *Rumor*, began an agitation for the abolition of what had become the separate school system of New York city, Brooklyn and New York State. It is true that the Afro-Americans had under the law the right to attend these schools, but it is a fact that the right had been forfeited by neglect to use it. In 1870 the condition of affairs was as follows in the county of New York: There were two schools, of which Mr. Charles L. Reason and Mrs. Sarah S. J. Garnet were principals; while in Brooklyn, there were three schools, of which Charles A. Dorssey, J. Q. Allen, and Mrs. Clough were principals. Now, whatever the law in the case may have been, it had become a general practice that the question of, whig school a child should attend vested in the county school board and that the principal of a school had mandatory power to force Afro-American children to attend Afro-American schools, however distant from their homes, and that all superintendents did this. This condition of affairs obtained over the entire State of New York. Mr. Fortune, in the early issues of *Rumor*, began a crusade against this separation in the schools. He was met in the very beginning by earnest opposition of the principals of the schools and the teachers thereof and of the friends of the schools throughout the counties of New York and Kings, who benefited by the separate school system; but Mr. Fortune hame- moved away at the age of 18 and gathered around him from White, Rev. W. F. Seddon, Sr., McMoore, and a host of others. With these men a persistent light was made for fair play in the public schools for teachers and for pupils. Dr. White, one of the best, noblest and most generous-bearer Afro-Americanne, we ever knew, who was our first member of the Brooklyn School Board, consulted our Mr. Fortune on every point in developing the contention for fair play in the public schools. It is needless to say that the same, if not closer relations, existed between Mr. Fortune and Mr. T. McCants Stewart, who succeeded Dr. White in the school board. Now, it is a fact, which will be borne out by the files of *Rumor*, the *Globe* *Freeman* and *True Ack*, papers which Mr. Fortune has edited in *New York* since 1930, that in all of this fight he was antagonized in very large part by what we might call the old New York clement, which favored the teachers instead of the pupils of the schools. In the progress of the contention for the abolition of the separate school system Mr. Fortune was personally mobbed by the friends of the teachers, who had a public meeting at the Fleet Street Zion Church in Brooklyn. Mr. Fortune kept steadily in view the fact that if the prosecution against the pupils could be done away with the teachers would have free swing in all of the public schools in New York. We give credit to the grand men to whom Mr. Scottron refers as having taken an active part for the equal school rights of Afro-Americans in the city of New York and New York State, and give to Mr. Scottron as the successor. T. McCants Stewart in the school board larger praise than to any of the other people named, except Dr. P. A. White and T. McCants Stewart; but we do not, purpose that Mr. Scottron or any person else shall take from our Mr. Fortune such credit as properly belongs to him for creating the public opinion and fighting consistently and persistently for the abolition of the separate school system in New York. The fact is that Grover Cleveland, when he was Governor of New York, blocked the way to making the schools by perplexing the separate schools at the instance of teachers and principals, who employed as their attorneys to plead their case before Governor Cleveland, Rev. W. B. Derrick and Prof. Richard T. Greener. It was years after, under Governor Roosevelt, that the whole system was wiped out, as a sufficient reply to the contention of the School Board of Queen's County that Mr. Cisco should send his children to the school set apart for Afro-American children. Mr. Fortune's record in this matter is perfectly clear. When he came to New York, in 1857, the old New York element was absolutely dead as far as any effort it made to change old conditions in which they were discriminated against at every point. Mr. Fortune has this to say, also, that Mr. Scottown's dental to him of his just share in bringing about mixed schools in New York is like unto the denial of his part in most movements for civil and political rights from 1850 to the present time. Mr. Fortune cares nothing about all this unpleasant dental, as it is written in his files of his papers. We have too many fights on hand against the enemy to waste our time in fighting over that part of history we have helped to make since 1850. But we are surprised that a man of Mr. Scottown's intelligence and loyalty to what is good and highest in our life should set up the contention that he does and coat it over with the sort of irony that he uses. --- Separation in Street Cars and Elsewhere. Of all the asinine mukeshifts which malicious Southern lawmakers have resorted to in the short to humiliate and degrade the Afro-American people the separate street and railroad car regulations are the most provoking. Referring to the advice recently given by Turt AGE that Afro-Americans should walk rather than ride in any place where such regulations are made and enforced, the Nashville American calls it "foolish advice." and the Montgomery Daily, Advertiser says "no worse advice could be given by a Negro to his race." All this is very swieping. It depends upon the point of view. The Advertiser says: No worse advice could be given by a Negro to his race, and he shows his ignorance of conditions in the South by ringing in Montgomery to prove that the Negroes have boycotted the street cars. If he will come to this city he will find that our cars are liberally patronized by the Negroes and that the races are practically separated. And if he could stay here a few days and see some of the Negroes who ride' on the cars he would feel no surprise that white people refuse to sit by them, in the cars or elsewhere. And the advice of True Aunt is hard for its own race in the South, for, if they follow it, they will be the worst sufferers. To provide for them a separate place in street cars does them no hurt and subjects them, to no humiliation. It is best for both races and the white people will keep it up. If the Negroes refuse to occupy the street set apart for them, and which are precisely like the others, they will have to stay off the cars. They can boycott our street cars to their hearts' content, but there will be no mixing. True Aunt sometimes gives good advice to its race, but has not done so in this instance. We know all about the South; we know all about the white, mixed-blooded and black people there, and for the sufficient reasons that we were born and reared there and return there periodically. We know that there are a lot of worthless, low, dirty black and yellow people in Montgomery, and we know that this is equally true of a large number of white people in Montgomery. We have a lot of both sorts of people in New York and other cities of the North and West, but we do not "show them off the earth" by class legislation or other device. We place common people of all sorts and races and conditions on the same footing in all public places of accommodation and amusement and co- The American is an emblem of independence in a state. The Advertaeer thinks that the cost of things is immense, especially far in the Afro-Americans are compared. It believes that all Afro-Americans are inferior and that all white people are superior people. This view of the matter is not only biased, but ridiculous. There will be mixing of the races. They cannot be separated by laws of man because they are joined together by laws of God, and time, will make the whole matter conform to what is right in law and equity. The Advertaeer, published in the shadow of the capitol of the Slave-Holdings' Confederacy, should be sparing in its prophecies. The changes it has seen since the close of the War are an nothing compared to those it will see in the years to come. The age of prophecy has been wiped off the slate. The Nashville American has the following to say on the subject: Separating the races on the street cars should not cause friction or serious discontinuity and will not annoy the more sensible Negroes. Separate coaches or compartments are provided for them on the railways without causing trouble or injury. It usually tends to reduce friction, to lessen discontinuity and inconvenience and annoyance. The car law applies to both races alike. Equally the car law applies to both races alike. Equal car law applies to both races. If the white people do not act, why should the Negroes? Where the same law applies to both, and the whites do not object and the Negroes do, is it not an admission that the latter are anxious to be brought in contact with the former as much as possible? Is it not an indication of hostility to all barriers and degrees of separation of the races? The Negroes should act sensibly in this matter. It is far wiser and better for them to accept the law as their white friends accept it, with theoking to obey the law and to maintain friendships with each other. A new law is sometimes received with unfriendly spirit simply because it is a new law, but when the objections are observed good faith, the objections are of interest to be without foundation or reasonable basis. The way to enforce a law is to enforce it, regardless of whether it may be acceptable to every individual or class. The American is very innocent, on our minds we are. As a matter of fact, seg- regation of the races in public con- veyances and places of accommodation and amusement is not only a humiliation, but a violation of the civil rights which in- here in the citizen or in a body of cit- izens, while separation in places main- tained by taxation of all the people for the benefit of all the people is a rank injustice which a weak people will only oilate against the time when they are strong enough to force the righting of it. The American knows this as well as we do, and may constitute this view of the gather as an answer to the question it asks, viz.: "Is it not an indication of hostility to all barriers and degrees of separation of the races?" It is, most emphatically if is, and the American knows that it is. The races cannot be separated by law. No law should be obeyed, ex- cept under protest, that is unjust. If this view was not logical the United States would still be colonies of Great Britain. The American knows that there is no separations of the traces made mandatory by Southern laws which were not intended by their framers to humiliate Afro-Americans and which do not humiliate them in the unequal and brutal manner of the execution of them. Separate marriage laws, separate school laws, separate car laws—dose the American pretend for a moment to believe that these laws were not intended by those who enacted them to humiliate and degrade, and in their operations do not humiliate and degrade, Afro-American citizens? These laws will be abolished. The citizenship of the United States are entitled to quality of justice and equity under the fundamental law of the Republic, without regard to race or color, or contrary laws of one or more States, and they will have it. When? That is immaterial. It is not worth a rap to undertake to compute the years it will take to reify wrongs which foster and stink on the body politic. And our esteemed contemporary, the Nashville *Clinton*, speaking for Afro-American of Nashville, and commenting on our advice, says: "Nashville is putting forth every effort to meet the 'Jim Crow' law on the 6th of July. Every provision is being made and we are glad to say that Nashville Negroes will have no trouble in staying off the cars—We will walk." Yes; that is right; walk. The best way to get justice from a white man is to go through his pocket—refuse to spend money with him when he plays the "holier than thou" racket or strikes the attitude of the coward, and the cheat. Panama Canal Drawbacks The building of the trans-Isthmian canal, in which all the civilized world is interested and has been for a great many years, has been a source of infinite worry to the French, who accounted themselves fortunate in being able to transfer the whole matter to the United States, at a large cash consideration which made the shareholders immensely happy, as they had begun to despair of ever realizing anything on the investment. The United States got no bargain, and the taxpayers of the country will be fortunate if they do not have to pay two hundred millions of dollars to complete the canal. The United States appear to have fallen heir to the troubles inseparable from the enterprise when the French had it under control. The first commission authorized by the Congress, proved unwieldy, and therefore inefficient, and was replaced by a smaller commission. For a year past this last named commission has prosecuted the work on the canal with varying degrees of success, as the labor problem was a vexed question, which has not as yet been settled. Then, the yellow fever and other diseases incident to the Canal zone, have kept everybody engaged in the work in a state of mind. The announcement of the President that he would buy the supplies needed in the construction of the canal in the ones the backbone of the Administration was weakened, and the proposed radical departure was unsupported, and will probably remain suspended until the Congress acts upon the question. It is safe to pay, however, that the principle of extortion underlying the contention, as the outgrowth of our protected and coddled industrial interests, will be forced to an issue some day, and that not remote, as the American people are mighty tired of paying tribute to the Protected interests the resignation of Chief Engineer Wallace of the Canal Commission in the latest of the drawbacks the Administration has had to contend with. It appears that Mr. Wallace had an offer from a private corporation which gave him a larger salary than that given him by the Government, and that he desired to close with it. This attitude of Mr. Wallace exasperated the President and Secretary Taft very much, and the latter scored Mr. Wallace in ripping fashion, Mr. Wallace, in a statement, defined himself as best he could. Perhaps, as a matter of sentiment, he should have remained with the work and got his reward in the glory instead of the cash in such work. But that was a matter for Mr. Wallace to decide, and not for the President or Secretary Taft, and Mr. Wallace decided that he would rather have the cash than the glory. PREACHER USED AX TO GET IN: Was Battering Down Church Door When Flock Put Him in Flight. NEW HAVEN, July 10—Last Wednesday morning Milford was thrown into a pumice by an excited crowd, which collided the towels sheerly matched against R. W. M. Sullivan, who was his way into the First Immunan Baptist church, of which he is pastor. The preacher took to his heels and made a escape, after battering the door somewhat. The story goes that some time ago R. W. Sullivan was given thirty days in which to make a sacrifice, and the church is allowed that he was dismissed misappropriating the contributions of the church. The course the deacons took in the matter underscored grief, and the consequence a new door lock was put on which the officiets believe will be effective against the preacher.

Root Secretary of State—John P. Green Pried—Two Lynchings. On July 7 President Roosevelt announced the acceptance by Elliott Roost of the portfolio of the Department of State which was vacated by the death of John Hay. By becoming Secretary of State Mr. Root gives up an income estimated at $1,000 a day, earned by practicing law in New York, for the comparatively indirect salary of $4,000 a year. The Nation at the President are to be congratulated as securing the services of so brilliant a man as Mr. Root, whose appointment has earned widespread satisfaction. Area America have not, of course, forgotten that of Root, in an address which he undeated Secretary of War, discovered opulence at together orthodox upon the race question but we hope that since then he has given enough to take larger views on the mentious subject. In his new office he need to direct himself absolutely of prejudice, as much of his duties will tend to the officer races of South America, the West Indies and the Philippines. —Attorney E. H. Johnson and E. H. Johnson, Jr. of Jackson, Miss., who were convicted by the grand and petit juries for forgery and sentenced to 7 years' service, are making an appeal to the Supreme Court, on the ground that no American were on the juries which defended them. The Supreme Court has as all remember, that "Whenever the State, through its courts or administrative offices, all persons of African descent excluded, solely because of their race and color, from service on the grand jury, criminal prosecutions of persons of African race, the equal protection of the laws is denied to them, contrary to the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States." —On the subject of race amalgamation, the Schoenan have an odd conclusion that what is source for the rander is not source for the g霉. They have no repugnance to mixing the blood of white men and Afro-American women, but their fury over a vice reran mixture can be explicated only by the death of the man. At Dumont J. Wooden for the molatto novelist J. J. Wooden an Afro-American, eloped on July 5 with his girl. The couple were intercepted at Tampa and brought back to Dumass, where the unholy man was laked up in Jail. The next morning he was found hanged on a telegraph node a mile out of town. —John P. Green, of Cleveland, O., who was appointed United States Stamp Agent by President McKinley, was ejected from his office on July 1. His superiors are said to have disavowed certain phases of private life. The office of stamp agent in office holders fell made good, their other revert permanently to white men are wiped out. It is a weighty responsibility to the race which rests upon the office-holders. As Lou Board, a young Afro-American charged with attempted criminal assault on a white woman, was being released from Taylorville, Ky., to Shobrylle, in order to avert a lynching, the team which he was riding was boarded in N. Mundy by twenty-five white men, who killed him with bullets and backpack. --- Living Statues and Millionaire Wed- ding at Concerts.

MOORS, Chairman On bebelf of the Committers, TICKETS - = PRICE, 26 CTS COROCOA, IL., July 10.—The city schools, much to the relief of teachers and pupils, are closed for the summer vacation. It is gratifying to note the growing interest of our people in education, as is evidenced this year by the hundreds of colored children who have passed from the lower to the higher grades, many of them bearing the coveted honors of their respective schools. Indeed, from every school where colored children are pupils, come, pleasing reports of the general good standing of colored children in their studies. There were also large numbers of graduates from the city high schools, and a goodly number of these are preparing to pursue their studies further in the various colleges and schools of technology. In addition to the hundreds of colored children in the public schools, colored students may be found in every professional school of the city. In the schools of law, medicine, dentistry, music and the fine arts, manual training, technology and domestic science, representatives of the colored race may be found diligently preparing themselves for the higher calling of professions above mentioned, is likewise true of the two great universities of the city, the Northwestern and Chicago University. In a former communication to The ACM, mention was made of a little sensational episode at the last convocation of the Chicago University, when a Southern man criticized the University for conferring during the following week, when the commencement exercises of the Northwestern University were held, one of the speakers too, occasion to congratulate the University that it had never been narrow enough to draw a color line. The differences between these two great schools of higher education are interesting. The difference that especially concerns us is that while the Chicago University sends its representatives throughout the South to secure white students, frequently invites men of the Temple Graves, type to deliver convocation addresses and an employ Southern graves at Northwestern University of these things. Still, it is a curious fact that there are more colored students from the South attending Chicago University than the Northwestern or any other college in the North. The Chicago University draws no conspicuous color line. I learn that there has been concession, but out of all the use of the formatories, but in all the use of our respects our students, according to their own testimony, receive an equality of treatment in academic opportunities. There has scarcely been a year since the founding of this great University that colored students have not been of them. Mr. Moreno N. Work, R. R. Wright and J. G. Lemon, all from Georgin, received master's degrees. During the summer or vacation months there are perhaps more than a hundred colored teachers at the Chicago University pursuing courses in pedagogy or other branches. Our young colored men and women, who are serious seekers of the art and culture, are not afraid to meet Southern white men and women in the class room. Hundreds of these white students, coming from the South burdened with race prejudice, are in this way afforded their first opportunity of learning the intellectual capacity of the Negro race. Some of them have been taught to read and write they have been systematically devolved as to the ability of the colored student to acquire more than the rudiments of an education. In other words, Chicago University has become a fruitful missionary field for the benighted white Southern. It is safe to say that when he leaves his University he will be invited to lecture about the Negro's innate inferiority. The spacious parlors of the Appomattox Club were the scene of an interesting ceremony a few night ago. The occasion was the unveiling of a large portrait of the late Walter C. Proush, presenter of the distinguished jurist. The principal address was delivered by Judge McLeen, of the circuit court, and short addresses were made by Hon. E. H. Wright, Dr. A. Wesley and S. Laiang Williams. There were of both races. The portraits of many of the most distinguished heroes of freedom now adorn the walls of the home of the Appomattox Club. This club is the successful result of many years of untiring effort to establish a law office to be topped on the high road to a position of great influence in the political and social life of our city. With the advent of the summer vacation months, the social life of the people is taking on new activities. The first and most brilliant function of the season was an afternoon in which the given guest, a Council Bluffs man in honor of Mrs. Graves, of Council Bluffs, a sister of the hostess. The beautiful parters were resplendient with flowers, beautiful women and summer gowns of rare beauty and elegance. One lady remarked that the hostess should be regarded as a public benefactor in thus bringing together so large a number of friends, whom the distance and taint tend to separate and almost strange. In the Boston Guardian of recent date there is an editorial that surpasses anything Jules Verne ever wrote for utter lack of fact or truth. The editor has written that the Long suspension of the Chicago Conservator was due to the machinations of Dr. Booker T. Washington. Mr. Wilkins and his associates on the paper must have read with amazement the Gapflint's porary lapse. I know it to be a fact that Dr. Washington has had no more to do with the ups and downs of the Conservator than he had to do with a paper published in Torsin. He have some perversity in the unfounded assertions that brought the Conservator to a standstill for some time, and I have also a personal acquaintance with both Dr. Washington and Editor Wilkins; and with this knowledge, I have no hesitation to is without even a semblance of fact. I have been informed that several Chicago men have been invited to attend a conference to be held in Buffalo during the month of July. This conference has been called under the leadership of Dr. Boise, Dr. Wise, Dr. Boise, E. E. Wilson, Dr. C. E. Bentley, Col. John R. Marshall, J. S. Madden, Lawrence Jones, ex-County Commissioner E. H. Wright and many others. These gentlemen are members of what was once known here as the Equal Opportunity League, organized about one year ago. The most people who are making decided interesting and uncomfortable, for the managers of the "White City," a magnificent summer attraction recently opened here. The managers have undertaken to exclude colored patrons from the restaurant, known as the "College Inn." Several suits have been started and the managers will be made to pay yet dearly for their experience and liaison. FANNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS. It seems to me a not at all unreasonable expectation that some future writer will edit the editorial columns of *The New York Aux* and the speeches from time to time recorded by the following: referrals to the period between 1875 and 1895: "About this time the city of New York was fortunately visited by two very much alive colored citizens, one from Florida and the other from South Carolina, T. Thomson and his wife, who found their colored brethren not at all awakened to their best interests, careless of their civil rights, wanting in energy, having never been moved with the seal necessary to accomplish desirable results for the uplifting of their race. These new citizens finally succeeded in bringing the city of New York and neighboring towns and villages, but in the entire State, where it would appear that no colored citizen had made even any effort to accomplish the opening of the public schools allike to white and black children. This was accomplished by the first mentioned minister, whom he had succeeded in inter- The foregoing, should it ever appear, would be fairly warranted by a paragraph that appeared in The New York Ann of June 22, 1905, in an editorial entitled, "Industrial Education in the North," as follows: "Governor Stokes concurred in this view to the wisdom and justice of the theory of mixed schools for all of the children of the State as is Mr. Fortune, who created the opinion that abolished the separate school system in New York State, being assisted, of course, by such men as Dr. P. A. White, T. McCautte Stewart and others." If Mr. Fortune were applying for a patient on the thing, and were to make any change, the committee would return it, to him, for consideration, considerable modification, that is sure after examining the records. Nothing and no one could preccele the Creator of anything, so far as relates to the particular thing created; Therefore, to tune the very embryo, inception, beginning, of that sentiment which finally closed our colored schools, or rather made mixed schools possible, and committed our students and commenced its work right under his hat. But this is not the fact by a great deal. Therefore, hoping to catch the future historian who may be inclined to record unwittingly an error, permit me to offer following facts: the TAEG as they have to the children; the TAEG as they have to the children; only he lacks (gully thirty years of as much personal knowledge and experience as I have had in the life of this city. But what has passed under my personal observation and which I may record of as of my own knowledge easily praised or by others heretofore living at this day, who can finally confirm or possibly refute what I say. No far as any record of the schools of the city of New York, 1550, the boroughs composing the present city, is concerned, we began here with mixed schools one hundred and fifty years and more ago. The first schools on the record were those supported by the several churches, all of them absorbed in schooling the children they were mixed schools, whites, free blacks and Indians all together. This was trug of the old Dutch Reformed church in Bushwick, of the Dutch Reformed Church in Flatbush, and like churches in their earliest history, followed by the old Sandys Street Methodist and by those of other denominations for a very long period, only schooling had beenColored children contained in those church mixed schools. The first separate schools for "African children" hereabouts were attempted by the Quakers, who became what was known as the Mammission Society as early as 1754, immediately upon the passage of the first national emancipation of slaves. These good people had been largely instrumental in freeing the "African slaves" hereabouts, and they at once set about opening schools to be specially devoted to these newly freed children. They imported an annual school at a salary of $300 per annum; but since the colored people avoided this separate school and stuck to the church parish schools, he was able to report an average attendance the first year of only twenty-six schools, and the population was the employment of a colored man teacher, whose name occurs among the first now on the roll of the African Mutual Relief Society, they succeeded in increasing the attendance and the number of schools until at the time of the Public School Society, which had been established by John Jay, DeWitt Clinton and others, there were seven of them in a fairly flourishing condition. Nevertheless there was ever complaint of the difficulty of keeping the seats filled, because so many colored children in the districts were admitted to white schools. Prizos were given the children who had induced the greatest number of their associates to follow them into the colored schools. Notwithstanding the popularity of "Charlotte," Andrews, a white man, participated a table of the children, and the "African," children in his school, the people were dissatisfied and broke into open rebellion in the shape of miss meetings, threatening to withdraw—their children from the colored schools unless they were tunaded. Their continued stand resulted finally in a commission of prominent colored citizens being sent out, handed by Boston Crummell, father of the late Rev. Alexander Crummell, which commission succeeded in securing John Peterson and Random and Vake. These became the people and the people knew that by the net granted by the Legislature to the Public School Society in 1865, they had a perfect right to demand entrance into any convenient public school. The memorial which the white citizen had served was 1866. And in 1867 he was followed: "An not to incorporate the society instituted in the city of New York for the establishment of free schools for the education of poor children who do not belong to or are not provided for by any religious society." The colored people knew that they were unlimited to act to equal place in the public schools and they were continually threatening. On the Brooklyn side of the river the schools remained many years longer in the charge of the churches. Among the earliest names recorded on colored paper were that of James C. Morell and William J. Wilson. Morell came here from Philadelphia and was first employed by the white people out in that district, which in his day was called "the white colored man known familiarly" as "Jimmy" Weeks, a powerful and noted character. The white people, first employed the very able Morell to teach white adults in night schools, and their children in day schools—a mixed school—during the day but not on his school became a distinctively colored school. William J. Wilson strung many other schools in the state. In a district where he was a long time, he kept little schools filled, because so many colored children were admitted to white schools, through the friendships of school principals, or the influence of Graham Fully, who was well disposed and did not allow colored children walk miles in the school district, while white schools more accessible. Find the number of colored children who were admitted to Mr. Bush's school, to Mr. Mervin's school, to Joseph Ryan's school, and to the school that is now No. 18, leaving out the score of others, and you'll have a list of the students who were all former either Mr. Fortune or Mr. Stewart came this way, and some time before Mr. fortune was born. Superintendents Bulley, Cruikshank and Field were well known to all the colored people as friendly and as opposed to putting colored children to great injustice. They were the colored schools. Superintendents Kiddle and Jaaper, on the Manhattan side of the river, were mixing the schools so fast that of the eight colored schools formerly organised there. He had given up the struggle to teach the colored children two more flickered and went out, as did all except one before any attempt worthy of the name had been made to close the colored schools. In fact, the real struggle, and the only struggle, worked out by the name, the struggle of the colored teachers to keep their classes full and their positions secure. And what about up the State? What was Stephen Myers doing with his little paper, "The Voice of the People?" Look at those files. What was that grandstand and most polished, orator, William J. Watkins, doing? Want about the Deyes of Poughkeepsie and Hudson? William H. Matthew, William Topp, Dr. William H. Johnson and others of Albany? Stephen Meyers, Benjamin Rozeman. James Harding of Troy, the Rev. Logan of Syracuse, Gerrit Smith of Geneva, and Frederick Douglas of Rochester? Did these men await the coming of Mr. Fortune or T. McCarts Stewart before touching upon the school question, to "crack" public sentiment in this State that should give us mixed schools, these men who voice and protests had opened even the doors of the Albany Normal school, from which colors girls were graduated before either of these gentlemen last named came here? I think not. Available fees are as well as long memories about the State, say no. And now, before that future historian is led into error, let us establish the facts, which, no doubt, Mr. Fortune also will be glad to learn. It is true that no historian who attempts to give a full and complete account of the activities of the past decade, hereabouts, can do well if he does not mention Fortune, but he must stop for short of crediting him with the beginning and "creation" of the public sentiment which led to the mixed schools of this city and State, a thing which cannot truthfully be crossed to any single instance. Fortune, in fact, took from their inception to their maximum, a period of about seventy-five years, and then there came a gradual and positive decline, a melting away as of tea and snow exposed to the sun, until they died a natural and peaceful death in the causes were: First, the gradual decline in the proportion of the Negro to white population, the fewer and fewer colored children in the city proportionately, their spread over so much territory and the habit of mixing the children which were colored with the white, and theinking the extreme of maintaining the separate, colored schools so very, very expensive, terribly so and second, the very large increase in the foreign element, who were indifferent, all except the Irish, to American color prejudice, and who were very likely to be a white child beside their children in the school room. S. R. Scottrox. Brooklyn, N. Y., July 1, 1905. THE RACE NAME. An Argument Which Proves Nothing Worth. To the Editor of the New York Age: I have read much concerning the name by which the race and its members should be called. And I am of the opinion that the word "colored," or that of "Negro" is more specific and comprehensible than the word "Afro-American," which is a word far more specialized and confusing to the ordinary mind. The Age is right, though, in contending that when the word "Negro" is used, the letter "n" should be a capital. Now, a white man having been born and reared in Africa is an African, as well as a colored man thus born and reared. Therefore, should him imitate a white man, he would be a citizen of this country, he, or his posterity, would be Afro-American, as well as the colored man-born and reared in like manner. When we say "colored man," or "Negro" everybody knows what we mean. It rather seems to me, that the word "colored" is soft enough to be accepted by the most fastidious. I am aware, though, that in some sense, neither black nor white is considered a "color," but not entirely. We are well known in this country, J. O. Nixon, Wilmington, N. C. June 28, 1906.

From the New York World. WATKINSVILLE, GA., June 23—Goves Negroes and one white man were lynched by a mob just outside of the county jail before early this morning. They were hosed to force posts and literally shot to pieces. Hundreds of shots were fired at the eight victims before the infuriated mob was content with its night's work. Not many of the bullets went wide of the mark, for the harring was done at short range and the hundred or more men were for the most part experts with the rifle and recoil. The white victim of the mob was Leon Lewick, and the Negroes were Rich Claude Elder, Lewis Robinson, Allen, Nandy Price, Eugene Yearby Robert Harris. The first three named were in jail on a charge of har- mored Mr. and Mrs. F. M.

The mob was composed of about one hundred man, all heavily armed and armed.

BICHMOND, Va., July 10.—The Richmond alumna of Howard University are deeply concerned as to what will be the outcome of the trouble at the university between the president on the one side and the Afro-American on the other. With not a single exception the alumni here condemn the course which the president pursues, and give it out, that in their opinion the future usefulness of the school depends upon the retirement of the present head, and the election of an Afro-American in his stead. Our public schools have closed for the session. In our high and normal school there were 28 graduates in the high school course and 20 in the normal. One young lady, Miss Juliet Belle Morris, made the highest percentage, 90.40, ever attained by a graduate in that institution, and was highly complimented by the president of the city school board when he presented her her diploma. Misses Ida Frances Cowan and Ethel Garland Bowler, graduates, also made excellent records in their classes. The city school board elected teachers for the session of 1905-06 last Thursday night. The old teachers were all re-elected, save six, who had tendered their resignations to become housekeepers. These were Misses Virginia B. Harper, Nena F. Brown, Eva Jonafhan, Mattie C. Tinsley, Miss Mary Willis and Lena Logan Jasper. Misses Lillian L. Moore, Annie C. Augustus and Eulalia Whittle were elected regular teachers, ten young ladies pupil teachers, and fifteen reserve teachers. The Fourth of July was generally observed here; and while there were no public demonstrations, there were a number of private outings at the various nearby picnic places. The congregation of Sixth Mt. Zion Church unveiled a beautiful monument, which has been erected in Union Mechanics' Cemetery, to the memory of the late Rev. John Jasper, founder of this church. The program, which was a lengthy one, consisted of speeches by the ministers of the several Baptist churches in the city. The principal address was made by the Rev. Dr. Z. D. Lewis. The veil was drawn by little Miss Maria Glover, granddaughter of Rev. Jasper. The church choir furnished the music for the occasion. Rev. John Jasper was a tower of strength, religiously, in his day and generation and had gained a world-wide notoriety because of his famous "Sun Do Move" sermon. He was a truly devout man and the highest type of the consecrated Christian minister. The monument is Rot a just tribute to his worthy services for Christ and His church. This June broke the record in marriages among school teachers and rendered obsolete the old saw that "teachers never resign, die or marry." On June 7 Miss Virginia B. Harper and the Rev. Robert C. Judkins were united in holy wallock; on June 15, Miss Cornelia E. Brown and Mr. Charles Munford; on June 21, Miss Mattie C. Tinsley and Mr. L. B. Benton; on June 27, Miss Mary Willis and Mr. Helen Willis; on June 29, Miss Lena L. Jasper and Dr. A. B. I. Bowser; and on June 29, Miss Eva Jonathan and Dr. James Lewis. Madame Kumar has it that there are to be three or more of the teachers to marry before the opening of the schools. The Rev. Drs. W. T. Johnson, W. L. Taylor and A. Binga, Jr. have sailed for London to attend the World's Baptist Congress which meets in that city this month. Dr. Taylor was accompanied by his wife. While away the reverend gentlemen will visit many of the places of interest on the continent. Mr. Edward Ellis, Jr. is acting president of the Grand Fountain, United Ordeal Church Reformers, while President Taylor is federal. Dr. Dr. Webster Davis and W. P. Barrell, Esq. have returned from Toronto, Canada, where they attended the meeting of the International Sunday School Convention. The Afro-American physicians of Virginia met at Miller's Hotel on June 27 and organized the Old Dominion Medical and Surgical Society, with the following officers: President, Dr. Charles R. Alexander, Petersburg, Va.; first vice-president, Dr. W. E. Atkins, Hampton, Va.; second vice-president, Dr. R. J. Roland, Romako, Va.; third vice-president, Dr. Albert Johnson, Alexandria, Va.; journalist, Dr. E. R. Jefferson, Richmond; treasurer, Dr. R. E. Jones, Richmond; secretary, Dr. A. W. G. Farrar, Richmond, and corresponding secretary, Dr. H. L. Harris, Richmond. Steps were taken looking to the appointment of committees for the meeting of the National Society here next October. Miss Ethel Branch Ramsey, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. P. B. Ramsey, died on June 27 after an illness of several months. Miss Ramsey was a young woman of most lovable disposition and of high Christian character. The funeral was held at the First Presbyterian Church and the remains were taken to Petersburg for interment, her previous home, where she was a teacher in the public schools until her recent fatal illness. The Richmond Negro Conference met at Leigh Street M. E. Church June 3. A class of four was confirmed at St. Philip's P. E. Church last Friday night. The several literary and art circles have discontinued work for the summer. The Coronellos, of which Miss Zipporah Jackson is the president, closed with a literary and dance; the Friday Evening, Miss Julia I. Stephena, president, can out-ouse tooodle the Hyncinic, Mrs. Forresto T. Watkins, president, hold a literary and dance, and the Narcissus, Mrs. Nannie W. Turner, president, a literary and social. The City Gun Club has opened the trap-shooting season and there are shoots every Tuesday at their ranges in the west end. Some of the men, especially J. C. Robertson and the Rev. Dr. W. L. Taylor, are making fine scores. Mrs. N. R. Brown, wife of Editor E. W. Brown, of the Reformer, continues dangerously ill at her home in North 1st street, Mr. W. S. Blackburn, editor of the Damnelle (Va.). Mirror, was in the city last week. Mrs. James Orbison Forster left the city Saturday for New York on a visit to her sister, Mrs. Luna G. Washington. Meurs, Christopher F. Foster, Charles T. Woodson and Andrew J. Walk were added to the clerical force of the Richmond post office on July 1; Meurs, Edile Lewis and George Gilliam were appointed regular carriers, and Meurs, Walter P. Johnson, Edward W. Stephens, John F. Rose and John T. Woolfolf were appointed substitute carriers. These are pointers are all Afro-Americans. Mr. H. O. Stephens, a carrier in the Richmond office, who has been quite sick for several weeks, is again on his route. Mrs. L. L. Stanford, the accomplished A timely member of Richmonds will serve as the Negro Conference which meets the purpose. Mrs. Ellen Trent Runsell, wife of Mr. Charles T. Runsell, instructor of carpentry and cabinet-making at Tuskegee, with her little daughter Olae, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Clarence S. Forrester, of this city. The Bachelors and Benedictus will give an outing at Jonesboro on July 18. GEO. ST. JULIEN STEPHENS. Southern Outrages May Be Evaded by Emigration. From the Pacific Coast Appeal. The Negroes of the South are now brought face to face with the question as to whether 'tis noble in the man to wand and face these new difficulties, or go in search of new fields, where he will not be longer hampered and bounded at every step by a bitter and relentless prejudice that is determined to work his ruln. This is the wise course opened up to the Southern Negro. Let him seek a home in California and other points of the West, where there are thousands of acres of good, rich land waiting to yield boundfully to his labor. And those who have money, and are competent and industrious, can settle in cities and secure work and business at better paying wages than the South offers. California has a mild climate. Oregon and Washington have climates much less severe than are to be found in the South and by far more uniform. On the Pacific Coast, colored men and women are in demand. Here there is the same law for black and white. Industrious and intelligent men and women can soon become independent land owners and enjoy freedom as they never can in the South. Here their soil yields a bountiful supplies of fruits and vegetables of all kinds. The hills pasture thousands of cattle, and the mountains yield gold and silver and copper in unlimited quantities. Let all who will, consider. The overcrowded condition of many local businesses in many respects. Labor supplies are greater than the demand, and as a consequence labor is cheap. Moral and intellectual development is retarded. Health conditions are rendered bad. We would not advise our people to be cowardly or play the part of weaklings in meeting the ordinary difficulties of life. These will be found everywhere. But no people are called upon to remain passive and embrace forever the wrongs and persecutions that are heaped upon the Southern Negro. Emigration has proved a boon for other persecuted races and will no doubt prove a blessing to the Negroes. How to Get to Pittsburgh for Convention on August 21-26. Persons attending the Knights of Pythias Convention at Pittsburgh on August 21-26, and coming from the North, Northwest, West, Southwest and South, should secure their tickets via either the Wabash, Pittsburgh & Lake Erie, Pittsburgh, Ft.

E., West Penn, or Allegheny Valley. Information as to rates can be had after July 15 from all local railroad agents. There are several river routes on which packet boats are run with fair regularity; a trip on which to Pittsburgh would be an enjoyable experience. They start from Cincinnati up the Ohio River; from Morgantown, W. Va., down the Monongahela River; and from towns along the Kana-wha and Muskingum Rivers. If a party of five or more travel to together, just before starting telegraph K of P. headquarters, 1225 Wylie avenue Pittsburgh, Pa., something like this: "Five will arrive Pittsburgh, Monday S p. m., R. & O. dep."

Regular Correspondence of The ACM WASHINGTON, July 19.—The cooperative Mercantile and Investment Company, incorporated March 17, 1904, and beginning business June 28 of the same year, was made its first annual report. It has declared a dividend of 10 per cent, which is indeed an excellent showing for an infant enterprise. The company deals in coal, wood, kindling wood, flour, feed and ice. It is capitalized at $20,000, at $5 a share. Its office and address are 100 N. W., where the stables, horses and vehicles are also located. The officers are Mr. Frank Gaines, president; J. T. Dowle, vice president; J. C. Johnson, board of directors and Musser, William F. Branahan, J. H. Winslow, J. W. Mathews, J. C. Johnson, of Wowock; J. A. Gaskill, Zeph H. Moore, A. D. Watson, J. C. Miller, Savoy, Richard Watts and D. A. Jeakling. The idea of the establishment of the company-originated with Mr. Galmes, who felt that Washington city, with its 90,000 Afro-Americans, ought to keep abreast with those of the cities where the population is not so large; the average intelligence not so high and the amount of money spent not so large. He began to talk the matter up and over with his friends and acquaintances and it was not long before more than three hundred persons had subscribed for stock. The company was incorporated under the law of the District and began business by putting itself in touch with the operators of coal mines, wholesale feed and four dealers, the Board of Trade and other local association. In this way the best prices were obtained and full knowledge of the markets and dictuations secured. The company is now business only with its own carts and wagons and sold and delivered last fall, winter and spring more than one hundred car loads of coal which is purchased at the mines at the best cash rates. The wood and kindling is bought from a colored wholesale and retail dealer in wood and fuel. The credit of the company is A-1. Bishop G. W. Clinton, who attended the International G. E.

A story which reads like a romance has come to the writer of a young man, Mr. Thomas Taylor, a recent graduate of the Harvard Medical Society of the University of New York. Mr. Taylor worked his way through school-led�ing, plaved by an uptown millinery establishment as man of all work. Among the eyes of the man was Mr. Blank, a wife of Senator Blank, who was the most important State, Mrs. Blank observed the morning and industry of young Taylor when delivering parents and called the Senator's at the time of his death. Now Senator Blank owns among others the little school-building town in the West. It has about 600 people in a physician. The Senator sent his socrats to see Mr. Taylor and made a date for an event. The result of the interview was that Mr. Taylor had a new job in the early autumn for his Western home, where he has been engaged in Senator Blank at a next-salary to the doctor of the town.
