BOTH CITY CONVENTIONS. MCCLELLAN AND MUGHES NAMED, LATTER DECLINES. Republican Convention Made Notable by Fact That an Afro-American, Mr. Gilchrist Stewart, Seconded for Borough of Manhattan the Mayoralty Nomination—Episteme of the Conven- tions' Proceedings—Afro-American Prominent in Both Meetings. --- At the Republican city convention, which was held last Friday night at Carnegie hall, the following ticket was unanimously and enthusiastically named: Charles E. Hughes of Manhattan, for Mayor; Richard Young of Brooklyn, for Comptroller; and James L. Wells of the Bronx, for President of the Board of Aldermen. Of these candidates the first two have declined to run and their places are yet to be filled. The Convention, consisting of 535 delegates, was called to order at 9 o'clock and Timothy L. Woodruff was at once elected temporary chairman. Mr. Woodruff made a speech lauding President Roosevelt and predicting the triumph of the Republican city ticket. The platform was then read by Senator Page and unanimously adopted. It attacked Tammany Hall as "an organization existing solely for the purpose of public plunder," declared Mayor McClellan to be the tool of "Boss" Murphy, and praised Gov. Higgins and the Republican Legislature for initiating the current life insurance investigation. Then, amid excited expectancy, for the name of the candidate decided upon for Mayor was a secret to most of the delegates. Senator Ellsberg arrose to make the nominating speech. There was a great demonstration of genuine delight when he named Mr. Hughes, and loud cheering persisted for over three minutes. The feature of the evening now occurred, when, for the first time in the history of New York City politics, an Afro-American arose to sequester the motion nominating a candidate for Mayor. This Afro-American was Mr. Gileghrist Stewart,colored leader in the 19th Assembly district, and he spoke for the immense Borough of Manhattan, for both white and Afro-American voters. He made an impassioned speech, which was greatly applauded, in which he called, Mr. Hughes "the candidate of the American home, of the American fireside." The Borough of Manhattan is a mighty big and important place, and the choice of Mr. Stewart to present it was not only an honor to him for all the race. After evening Mr. Young and Mr. Wells for the prospective office, and appointing a national committee and a committee to all councils, the convention adjourned. There were a number of Afro-American delegates present. On previous evening, October 5, the Democratic city convention met in Carnegie Hall. Charles V. Formes, President of the Board of Aldermen, was elected temporary chairman, and Mayor McClyde was nominated to succeed himself by Mr. E. A. Phillbin. The other nominees were Herman A. Metz of Brooklyn for Commissioner and Patrick F. McGowan of Manhattan for President of the Board of Aldermen. The convention was characterized by good order, harmony and enthusiasm. Several prominent Afro-American Democrats were in evidence, among them Attorney Curr, "Chief" Lee and Mayor Ralph Langston, Dickerson and B. BROOKLYN Y. M. C. A.

THE AUTOMOBILES DEDICATED Joyce Festivals Crown Flight Agenda Nashville, TN | Joyce Crown, TN NASHVILLE, Tenn., October 7.—On last Tuesday night occurred the climax of the resourceful fight which the Afro-Americans here are making on the "Jim Crow" street cars, when over four thousand of our people gathered at Athletic park to welcome the automobiles which Dr. R. H. Boyd purchased in New York and which are to be used to convey Afro-Americans about the city. There was a rumor abroad that the whites were planning to break up the meeting, and for this reason the number of the speakers-programmed for the evening got cold feet and stayed away. But the celebration went off without interference and with undamened enthusiasm. Two bands furnished music, of which the selection which gained most favor was, "There'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town To-night." Company G, the Afro-American star driller, amused the crowd for a while; but the most fun was got from the free idea of body油 in the big machines. As they whirled around the park cheers and yells and hurrahs from the exultant throng made the grand-stand reel. Speeches were made by Rev. Preston Taylor-president of the Union Transportation company; Dr. R. I. H. Boyd. Rev. Sutton Griggs, Dr. E. W. D. I. Wanse and others. ASK LEAVE TO BURN NEGROES. Texans Ask Governor Not to Send Treasury to Fresno University TROOPS TO PREVENT LYNCHMARK. HOUSTON, Tex., October 6.—A petition from a number of citizens, headed by G. W. Knight of San Marcos, has been presented to Gov. Lanham, asking that the State permit mobs to punish Negroes guilty of rape. The communication says it is dangerous for white women to live in sparsely settled sections unless constantly guarded; that the tendency to commit these frightful crimes is increasing among the blacks and must be stopped, even if it is necessary to wine out the race; that suspicion is to be held against every male Negro, and that a wholesale shaughter of them will escape if the heinous crimes are not decriminalized. The Governor is asked to indorse a policy of absolute unprotection to Negroes guilty of assault; that no trial be given or no sort or legal inquiry be held, but that they be instantly hanged. It is advised that every rural community hold a mass meeting and adopt resolutions in record with the foregoing, and that the citizens form committees and stand ready to punish with death the black man guilty of the nameless crimes or of assault, or proven intent; that when a crime is committed every Negro of the black man has risen to assist the whiter and that failure to do so would be construed as implicating them; that the State desist from sending troops to proper the guilty. Gov. Laulhan's response set forth the impossibility of his contemptuous such a policy in view of his oath to protect the Constitution. CAMPAIGNING FOR JUDGE LEWIS.

Said to be Our First Kindergartner Admitted to the Service Miss Fannie M. Perkins, after four years of, faithful service as a teacher and five years as principal director of the Prince street Free Kindergarten in Brooklyn, has accepted the appointment of the board of education to teach in the public school kindergarten, and has been assigned to public school No. 17. Miss Perkins passed an excellent examination for this work three years ago, but feeling that she could best conserve the interests of her race by remaining with the Prince street school, declined the assignment of the board. She is the first young woman of color in Greater New York to pass the examination for public school kindergarten work. When seen by an AGE representative Monday night, Miss Perkins said: "It is not for the increase in salary that I go to No. 47, but because I feel it a duty I owe to myself and my race, to move up and make room for young women of the race who can fill a place in the Priere children whose friendship and love I have enjoyed for these nine years." Miss Perkins sings first soprano in the choir of the Concord Baptist church, is the general secretary of the Sunday school, and instructor of the teacher training class, composed of some eighteen or more young women who are just finding the first of a two-year course in Old Testament literature literature and Biblical chronology. The course when completed will entitle those who pass the examination to the State Sunday School association teacher's diploma. 20TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. Celebrated by Mr. and Mrs. George S.

Al Herford has just come forward with an announcement that he will offer a purse of $10,000 for a twenty round bout between Gans and Jimmy Britt, the same to be held at the Eureka A. C., Baltimore. Herford and Willus Britt, manager of Jimmy Britt, had a talk the other day and Willus declared that he would accept the proposition on behalf of his brother, provided Battling Nelson refused to give Jimmy a return fight, and it will not be surprising if within the next few days Britt and Gans are matched to box. Hortford says that he can hold the mill at Baltimore; without interference. He intends to assure Wilms Britt of this by posting a large forfeit, the same to go to the mill, in the word "word." A match between Britt and Gans in the opinion of many, would be a big attraction at Baltimore. A large number of Eastern sports would attend the mill. WE MISS BUSINESS CHANCES.

Copper by the President. MONTGOMERY, Ala., October 6.—The Afro-Americans of Alabama have just succeeded in helping to win a great victory for decency and fair play. The President has just removed from office practically the last two Lily White office holders in Alabama, namely, D. N. Cooper, the Marshal of the Northern district of Alabama with headquarters at Birmingham, and Robert Barber, Register of the Land Office at Montgomery. Both these men joined the Lily White movement that was so prominent in Alabama some years ago and both have had their heads taken off, and decent officials have been put in their places. The colored people are not only the victors, but are also grateful to Hon. J. O. Thompson, the Chairman of the Republican State Committee, for carrying out their wishes with the President in this regard. The President has greatly encouraged and helped forward the cause of decency in Alabama by making these two removals of men who betrayed their trust. For thirty years the colored people supported Mr. Barber and held him in office, while the white people were fighting against the colored people, and that the Lily Whites were coming in power he turned and no one was more bitter against colored people than Mr. Barber. Mr. P. M. Long, the newly appointed Marshal, is a decent, high-toned gentleman, and not only that, he believes in the rights of the Afro-American and does not hesitate to say no. Lily Whites are from time to time, but it will be a long while before this serpent shows its head in Alabama again. The Afro-Americans are most grateful not only to Mr. J. O. Thompson; but to President Roosevelt for his timely and good action. While they have been working quietly, they have been working persistently ever since the outbreak of the Lily White movement t. get every man connected with this organization out of office, and victory has crowned their efforts. BONAPARTE ANXIOUS FOR WHITES. Accents Facts That Por Amendment Imperils Their Struggle HALSTMORE, October 4.—At the Republican State convention, which adjourned early last month after adopting a platform and reconvened to night. Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte provided and made an address on the issue of the campaign—the proposed disfranchisement amendment. He said in part: "The Democratic platform admits, that the Poe amendment is meant to rob Negroes of their constitutional right; it denies that disfranchisement of white men is either desired or intended; the admission is discreditably true; the denial more discreditably false. Every man who voted for the Poe amendment in the Legislature, in the justice last Thursday was sworn—some of them—to uphold the Constitution of the United States; all of them have held, some hold now, offices of trust and profit by virtue of that oath; yet we are told, and told without disguise or shame, that they have all plotted together to defeat and overthrow what is owned to be the undoubted purpose and intent of that Constitution, and it is a boast that they can and will do this with impunity. The elected voters of Maryland were last year 52,000; the white voters played by the amendment in precisely the same case with the colored will be as nearly as we can judge from official figures, over 64,000. Does this look like a measure affect Negroes only? In the city of Baltimore we have some 15,000 colored voters. The Poe amendment groups with them over 46,000 white voters. The rights of five white men are endangered to expose those of two Negroes to the same skimpy pay, to make them more likely to white voter need concern himself personally as to whether the amendment be or not adopted." A special to The Times says that a Democratic Anti-Amendment association has been organized here to aid the Republican party in the fight against the suffrage amendment. The Anti-Amendment association proposes to make the fight a straight-out anti-German crusade, treating the amendment as a scheme for the rehabilitation of Gorman's power in Maryland. The Reform League, composed of both Democrats and Republicans, is taking extraordinary precaution to prevent election frauds' Gov. Warfield and former, United States Senator Whyte, who are opposed to the amendment, are being urged to come out openly against it. The Governor refused to sign the bill when passed by the Legislature. Senator Rayner is taking no part in the campaign. HACKENSACK NOTES. HACKENSACK, N. J., October 9—Rev. J. W.

LEWIS ANSWERS HUMPHREYS SAYS DON'T REDUCE SOUTH'S REPRESENTATION. Agitation for This Purpose & Threat With Which It Is Hoped to Stumpede the South Into Restoring Bailout to Black Veterans—But the South Will Not Be Seared, Because Reduction Would Hurt It Lest Then Having to Hand Over State Governments to Black Majorities—Concentrate Our Forces on Fifteenth Amendment. The remarks of the Hon. A. B. Humphreys before the New England Suffrage League upon the position taken by me in my Detroit speech, in opposition to reduction of representation, ordinarily would call for no reply from me, but two reasons impel me to make an exception to my general rule to pay no attention to purely personal attacks or criticism: First, because I do not pretend to represent anyone except myself in the position which I take; and second, because my fellow citizens are entitled to know the reasons for the position I take upon a matter of such vital concern to the race. I was present at the meeting by invitation of the League, but was not invited to reply. Much that my friend was pleased to say was amusing, but not always convincing. I shall enter into no personal controversy with him, I shall speak plainly and, simply, I trust, upon the principles involved. As Charles Sumner said in his memorable speech of March 7, 1863, in opposition to the second section of the proposed Fourteenth Amendment: "With intense regret I differ from valued friends about me, but I cannot do otherwise. I bespeak in advance their cador, and most cheerfully concede to all the same indulgence which I claim for myself." I had every reason to expect from the confessed author of the reduction plank in the Republican platform plausible arguments, at least, in favor of the proposition. Aside from criticism upon what I had said, his only argument in favor of reduction of representation was the familiar one, that the Southern man likes power better than he does his life or anything on earth, and that before he would consent to reduction of representation the young man of the South would insist upon the Negro's being given his vote. It will be observed that Mr. Humphrey gives us nothing in support of his contention. As a mere statement of belief, I find no fault with it. But when it is suggested that colored men should urge reduction on that ground it deserves consideration. It, instead of submitting to reduction, the Southern man should give back the Negro his vote, would not the former in a large measure he giving up that power which my friend says is so dear to him? Obviously, give the Negro the ballot and he will have the power which the white man now has in many communities of the South. In accordance with ordinary human conduct the Southern man will keep all the power he can; will retain the power to represent the Negro in Congress as long as possible. But when it comes to the question of whether he will turn over the Negro a majority he perceives obtains the power he will ballot to rule, or submit simply to a reduction of representation, is there any doubt that he will submit to reduction, if my friend's premise is sound? Those who advocate reduction on this ground are frank enough, however, to say that they do not expect reduction-as a result. In other words, they do not believe in it, but expect to overturn the entire policy of the South by a mere threat. Mr. Humphrey says, "We are not urging reduction as a finality, but as a first step towards the enforcement of Fifteenth Amendment, we do not of the constantly oppressed and reiterated determination of the Southern-white man to rule at all hazards, it is to be reasonably expected that he will voluntarily give back the Negro's voting power on account of a mere threat of reduction? What does the Southern man lose by reduction? Simply the right to represent the Negro. He still retains the right to represent himself. The Negro alone loses his right of representation. How reduction of representation would enforce the Fifteenth Amendment he did not condescend to inform us. The Fifteenth Amendment provides that "the right to vote shall not be denied or abridged on account of race or color." Nothing is clearer than that the Fifteenth Amendment is absolutely repugnant to reduction on question of color, as may be allowed under the second clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. There is nothing new or original in this argument that reduction will encourage enfranchisement. Those who urged this compromise of human rights at the time of its adoption declared that would allow the Negro to vote in the Fifteenth Negro. The history of the last forty years totally disproves this theory, which sensible men are asked to try again. I, for one, am unwilling to take the first step until my learned friend can show me how it will lead to the enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment. In my speech at Detroit, referring to the subject of disfranchisement, I said: "The remedy sometimes proposed by colored men of the North is a reduction of Southern representation under the provisions of Section 2 of the Fourteenth Amendment. This proposition, as it seems to me, is open to grave objections. "First, it would be an acceptance by the Nation of the disfranchisement of the Negro, set public opinion at rest upon the subject, and encourage disfranchisement by other Southern States. "Second, while the South would regret to lose her representation in Congress, yet the settlement of the question would place the colored man just where she has been attempting to place him for the last forty years, in the hopeless position of a subject race. "Third, without representation in Congress he has no standing in National party pollination. Many of the constituents which he enjoys to day in the South he would necessarily lose. "Fourth, the Negro cannot consistently go to the State election officials and ask to be registered to be allowed to vote, and at the same time go to the general government and ask to have his representation in Congress reduced. I, for one, do not believe in cutting off my nose to splice my face. I would rather be represented by someone else than not be represented at all." As long as I am represented some day I may hope to represent myself. I believe with Charles Sumner, then whom God Almighty never gave a true friend to our race, to believe in proposition is hardly makehift. I believe that the wine policy for the Negro-to-pursue is to leave this question to the country. If Congress desires to cut down the representation, well and good. The Negro should have no part in it and hold the country to the strict accountability for the results." My friend said that he inferred from my first statement that I meant that Southern colored men opposed reduction. The language, does not justify the inference. I meant that Northern colored men, who were affluent affluent men, were usually in favor of it than Southern men. We differ just as other men do, grave questions. To the first proposition, that reduction would begin acceptance by the Nation of disfranchisement, set public opinion at rest upon the subject and encourage still further disfranchisement, the only reply was that Mr. Humphrey himself, General —— and Major —— were in favor of it. That, indeed, is unanswerable. It does not require a profound, observer to see that the country longs for surcease from the Negro question. Once the Fourteenth Amendment is complied with, the Negro will be left to his own. The precedent of subtraction to reduction will be resorted to whither and wherever the Negro, securing the ballot through increasing wealth and education, menaces the power of the white man. To the second proposition, that reduction would place the Negro in the position of a subject race, my friend's reply in effect was, that the Negro is already in such a position. But it is not true that the Negro is at present in the hopeless position o a subject race. In only six States out of thirteen is he disfranchised. If he is already "locked up" how will reduction get him out? Is not reduction, in effect; double disfranchisement in that, first, his vote is taken away, and, second, his representation is taken away? To the third proposition, that without representation the Negro would have no standing in National party politics, and would therefore lose many of the emoluments which he now enjoys, my friend was pleased to say, "To h-1 with emoluments. What are the salaries of 200 office holders at the cost of franchise? If two million voters?" Can it be said that those 200 hold offices at the expense of disfranchisement? Is it not the fact that they hold office in spite of disfranchisement? Will surrendering officers get back this franchise? One would think so from the argument. There is not a Negro office-holder in the country who would not willingly surrender his office at this hour if by so doing it would enfranchise two millions of his brotherhood with that number of his offices to secure just twice as many offices as he now holds. The holding of office is the tangible evidence of the Negro's political power. Hence his political power is gone. His offices are gone. "To h-1 with emoluments?" There are nearly five thousand colored citizens in the Federal service, receiving salaries aggregating three millions of dollars. Here are the facts: The following table, compiled from official data, shows the number of colored employees in the service of the Government of the United States Capitol in the industry: Total: 1410 $28,577,771 The Negro holds these offices not only by virtue of his merits, but because of the votes he casts in the Republican National Convention. After this climax of argument our friend then boldly declares that the South has stolen fifty representatives. Exultantly he cries: "We have caught the thief with the stolen goods in his possession. We propose to take them away from him." I find fault with the argument as far as it goes. Let us pursue the analogy a little further. When a thief is caught with the goods we are not only take them away from him but also them to the lawful owner. But I know it is proposed to take the goods away from the owner as well as the thief at the same time, and not only that, but to destroy the property itself the right of representation. It is strong commentary upon the position taken by me that my friend, after several weeks of preparation, and coming to Boston possessly to reply to me, did not deny the truth of a single statement, but simply contented himself with that of arguments—ridicule. wealth of I am opposed to reduction under the Fourteenth Amendment. I am in favor of enforcing the Fifteenth Amendment. The principle that a State may disfranchise its citizens for any cause, if it will only submit to a proportionate reduction of representation, is a dangerous one, total regiment to and subservient of the fundamental principles of democracy, "equal rights for all." For if less than half the citizens by force or fraud may take possession of a State government and disfranchise the majority of its citizens simply by submitting to a reduction of representation in Congress, why man not one-fourth, or one-eighth or one-doth the same? If Negroes may be legally disfranchised, in the Southern States simply by reduction of representation, why may they not be disfranchised in New York and New Jersey. Ohio, Indian, Illinois and other States? If Negroes may be disfranchised under the Fourteenth Amendment by reducing representation in Congress, why may not Jews, Scandinavians, Germans, or Irish, or any other nationality? I, for one, shall never consent or lend my voice to legalizing the crime of disfranchisement of the Negro by reduction of representation, for that is what it amounts to. Charles Summer fought tooth and nail Amendment. He objected to it because it was an admission of the idea of inequality of rights founded upon race and color, and because it sanctioned taxation without representation. Lastly, said he, "I denounce this proposition as a compromise of human rights, the most questionable of any in our history. On one side it is conceded that States may under the Constitution exclude Citizens counted by the millions from the body politic and practice the tyranny of taxation without representation, provided, on the other hand, there is a corresponding diminution of representative power in the lower House of Congress without, however, touching the representative power in the Senate. With prophetic vision, in a speech a few days later, he said, upon the same subject: "I see in it the recognition of a caste and the disfranchisement of a race." Garrison, Phillips, Beecher and Whittier applauded and approved his course. Douglass and Downing, protested against this clause of the Amendment as authorizing disfranchisement on the ground of race and color. If I stand alone I am content to be in such company. WILLIAM H. LEWIS. Cambridge, Mass., October 4, 1905. REVIVAL OF A MORIBUND CHURCH. Rev. Cook Doling Wonders In New Haven - Concert to Be Given for the Aged. NEW HAVEN, October 9.-The Union A. M. E. church on Webster street, now under the pastorate of Rev. L. H. Cook, which was in a moribund condition anterior to his accession is, by his efforts and those of his congregation, rapidly regaining the high standing which the church enjoyed during the pastorate of the late Rev. James H. Cook. In fact, the whole church seems to be actuated with the old-time spirit and enthusiasm. One very important feature about the services is the Sunday afternoon meetings, which are dedicated to young people and have been in operation for some time. The meetings begin at 6:30 p. m. and continue to 7:30, and are largely attended. Evening service begins at 7:30; morning service at 10:30. At 2:30 is the Sunday school session, with Mrs. Fleming Holt as superintendent and Mrs. Alodine Peters and Miss Viola Spencer as organizers. Rev. Cook is making preparations to have the church thoroughly repaired and renovated, and the work will be begun this fall. Local Preacher John Simms will be sent as a delegate to the I. A. M. E. church Sunday school convention, and he will be L. on October 11. Mr. Simms will also represent the church in the convention. The Hannah Gray Home for the Aged on Dixwell avenue, which is under the management of the Woman's Twentieth Century club, is making preparations for Halloween entertainment to be given Tusday evening, October 31, at the Goffstreet branch Y, M, C, A, rooms. The exercises begin at 3 o'clock. The work is progressing, and judging from the enthusiasm displayed, the affair will be a success. All persons are requested to donate liberally to his humane and Christian cause. Persons can leave their donations at the residence of Mrs. John W. Ross, Jr., 255 Orchard street; and at Mrs. E. George Biddle, 167 Goffstreet. The committee of arrangements are: Mesdames John Hagan, John W. Ross, Jr., E. George Biddle, William Amos, Charles Kelley, Frank Faucie, Emma Boston, Lilian Whittington and J. O. Jones; and Misses Eliza Mix and Jessie Banta. Last Sunday at Zion A. M. E. church, Rev. J. W. Davis pastor, was grand rally day, and the church was literally filled with members and friends at each service, in appreciation of the movement to build a new church. There were strong and stirring strings by the pastor in the morning, Rev. A. J. Talbert of Ansonia in the afternoon and Rev. Mr. Balden of Ansonia in the night. The faithful work of the church was represented by the church, $500 was raised during the months of August and September, by means of giving entertainments to augment the building fund of the proposed new church. The amount was brought in Saturday night and added to the fund. Mr. William H. Ferguson is seriously ill at his residence, 90 Wall street, from heart and kidney trouble. About three weeks ago Mr. Ferguson went to Springfield to recuperate and failing to derive any relief. He is surrounded by Dr. Rand and a trained nurse. Miss Emma Ferguson of Washington, D. C., it at her brother's bedside. Mr. and Mrs. Harry M. Wesley, old residents of this city and for quite a number of years of 158 Orchard street, left here last week for Philadelphia, where they will live in the future. A thanks offering entertainment will be given St. Lukes's P. E. Parish Tuesday evening, October 17, at Warner hall. The parish members have so much to be thankful for that it is hoped they will turn out in large numbers. Friends in this city have received invitations to the marriage reception of Miss Iziah Elizabeth, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Fayerweather, of Wisterly, R. L. to Mr. Ashley Smith on Tuesday afternoon, October 19, from 1:30 to 5:30, at 13 Pleasant street. MITE MISSIONAPA CONVENTION. Women's Annual Meeting at Glen Cove Very Successful New Officers Elected. Very Successful New Officers Elected. GREEN COVE, October 9. The annual convention of the Women's Mite Missionary society of the A. M. E. conference of New York was held on October 5-6 at Calvary A. M. E. church, R. R. S. Farrera, pastor. Song service was conducted at 11 o'clock by L. P. Williams, assisted by Mrs. L. Laws. In the afternoon reports of the various committees were read. In the evening Rev. James Avery Norris, D. D. pastor of the Presbyterian church, and Bishop R. T. Tanner, were the special speakers on Friday morning. The nominating committee made their recommendations and the election resulted as follows: President, Mrs. S. T. Tice, of Brooklyn; first vice-president, Mrs. R. S. Farrera of Glen Cove; second vice-president, Mrs. L. Laws of Manhattan; third vice-president, Mrs. A. L. Morton of Buffalo; secretary, Mrs. C. M.

The convention was largely attended and sumptuously entertained. The winter-fuel rally of Calvary A. M. E. church on October 1 was a decided success, the receipts being $78.43. The pastor, Rev. R. S. Farrera, preached three interesting sermons to large congregations. Mr. George Davis of Boston visited his mother, Mrs. Mary Davis, of this Willage last, week. Mrs. Ross of Brooklyn met the guest of Mr. and Mr. Mrs. John Neumann of Brooklyn last week. Mrs. Emma Carl, who was confined to her room several days with chills, is able to he eat again. Mr. and Mrs. South of Brooklyn, who have been summering here, have returned home. LEXINGTON, BUSINESS MEN'S NECCA. Kentucky Town Which Dr. Washington Promonored One of the Best for Afro-Americans-Dr. Muster, Jordan Jackson, Ballard, Dunn, Neighbors, Warfield and Other Business Men There. LOUISVILLE, Ky., October 9.-Dr. Booker T. Washington several years ago said that Lexington is one of the best places for the Negro in America. Judging from the brilliant reception tendered him and the glittering evidences of the thrifty, intelligent and a business people, he spoke the truth. And if one should spend more time among his people than did the distinguished visitor, possibly he could see even better things about these busy people. Lexington has gained a reputation of being the most hospitable city on the globe, its motto being, "The latch is on the outside—pull the string." Their material worth counts the most. The writer counted one hundred and twenty business places in, which Afro-Americans were doing some kind of business, from a capitalist and contractor down to a corner restaurant owner. There are six physicians, two dentists, three lawyers, four notaries, twenty fraternal organizations, a Business Men's League, one college and three public schools with an Afro-American supervisor. In the hospitals there is no distinction. Dr. Hunter, ex-President of the National Medical Association and a physician and surgeon of skill and ability, escorted us through the St. Joseph hospital, where he had performed major operations in the same room with the whites. Aside from living in a beautiful two-story brick house, he has now erected three brick cottages adjoining his residence. The appeal of Dr. Hunter to the city government for better sanitary conditions in the districts where Afro-Americans reside, is being fulfilled, the gratification of Mr. Jordan Negus warm friend of the National Negus Business League, is still pushing his own and other men's business. He is a first-class undertaker and livery man and there is no color line visible in his business. During the white and colored fats, both races flocked to him to do business because he kept a first class place. The schools are very good, and much credit is due Prof. Russell. He began teaching quite a number of years ago and under his principalship the schools have progressed. Brick buildings and graduates who are "doing something" bespeak his professional ability, Rallard, the drugist, Dum, the tinsmith, the neighbor, the photographer, Warfield, the grocer, Smoden, the milliner, and many others who might be mentioned show that the race has capable business men able to win all kinds of patronage. Rev. S. E. Smith recently raised $5,000, over half of which was spent in beautifying the First Baptist church. There are many wide-awake business Afro-Americans in Lexington who are credibly pushing to the front! The unassuming Isaac Hathaway, the sculptor, is doing a work in itself that is praiseworthy. Take a ride out the pikes from Lexington and much to your surprise there will be pointed to you hemp and tobacco farms owned by Negroes. The white race in this section of the country seem to like the progressive Negro. From County Judge Bullock to the ordinary citizen there is general good feeling among the races. In the legal profession is divided, Lawyer J. A. Childs is a Prohibitionist, Lawyer J. W. Schooler a Democrat and Lawyer B. E. Smith a Republican. Lexington has two men in employ- ments in which we solden see Afro-Ameri- cans engaged. One is a graduate vete- rman and the other a boss plumber. Dr. Thomas, company known as "the horse doctor," is making a splendid rove in this section. Here where some of the world's greatest horses are beek, Dr. Thomas utilizes the opportunity to show his skill. Mr. Sumbles, the plumber, has an up-to-date shop and has on display all kinds of late sanitary tubs, basins, etc. ready to be put in a new house according to your choice. He employs several as- sistants who are Afro-Americans and has contracted for many jobs. The great Lexington fair is over and the large number of visitors coming from all quarters of this country have returned home well pleased with their dightful visit. For at least one week, there is no Afro-American organization that handles as much coin as the Lexington A. and M. Fair Association. This company is strongly organized and shows conclusively where the race can do by cooperation and unity. There is a great deal of work connected with the association, whose object is to afford pleasure. With this same kind of organization engaged in some continuous business, there would be a greater benefit than can be gained during a one-week fair. The Negro bank at Little Rock is an example. The recent wedding of Miss Minnie Jackson and Mr. Charles Yaney of Maine, was one of the most notable ever celebrated in this State. Miss Jackson is the daughter of Mr. Jordan Jackson, one of the most reputable and substantial citizens of Kentucky, and has for several years been a prominent school teacher and society leader. Mr. Yaney is an employee of the C. M. St. P. railroad in Michigan. The wedding occurred at the A. M. E. church and the ceremony was performed by Rev. C. C. Townsend. The popularity of the contracting parties drew a large crowd to the wedding, including a host of out-of-town guests. The reception at the home was very swell and the presents costly and numerous. C. R. LEWIS. DOMESTIC TRAINING FOR WOMEN. New Department to be Opened by the Brooklyn Y. W. C. A. The Young, Women's Christian Association is about to open at the branch for colored women; 112 Lexington avenue, Brooklyn, a domestic training, department. This branch offers to women the use of attractive, comfortable rooms, where members may find recreation, entertainment, companionship and welcome and likewise religious and educational advantages. Southern girls will be trained in the methods and appliances of Northern homes; will have the protection of a home, under good influences while they are learning, and the advantages of an employment bureau, which will be safe for them to patronize. In this domestic training department an opportunity will be afforded women to have further training in their work, and to employers who are willing to pay to have their cooks and maids taught. Two thousand dollars will be needed to carry on the work and give it assurance of permanence. This department is opened to meet the needs of these young women on the one hand, and the needs of the public on the other. On the behalf of the course will include cooking, care of kitchen, waitstaff, laundry, homemains and home nursing courses, sowing, mending, reading, spelling, permanent, letter-writing, arithmetic and geography. LADY GONZALES AND MME, ZARRETTA GONZALES Brooklyn's Collebrated Claireyants Pelahats and Spirit Mediuns Positively no charge unless you obtain the information for which you consult them. LADY GONZALES is world renowned as the greatest adviser upon business, law, investiture, health, travel, changes, mar- riage, health and welfare. Their vast experience, years of study and remarkable psychic powers make them especially gifted in advising and siding others. AN HONEST PROPOSITION—(You to be full judge) We do hereby, solemnly agree and guarantee to MAKE NO CHARGE if we fall to call you by name; names of your friends, enemies, or rivals. We promise to you whether husband, wife, or sweetheart is true or false. We will tell you how to gain the love of the one you most desire, even though miles away. In fact we will tell you every hope, fear or ambition better than you can tell yourself, without your teller us on word, if you are not absolutely satisfied when reading is over, (you to be full judge), then pay us not one penny. During the year our record for successful work is as follows: Remitted 198 couples, brought around 287 marriages, gained the love of certain ones, 375; made many rich through advice in speculation, overcome 645 rivals and hundreds of other cases, such as the cases of the law suits and transactions of all kinds. Unlike imposters and pretenders, we take no money in advance and positively refuse to accept any fee if you are not entirely satisfied. They tell you what your trouble is as they understand the spells and evil influence. They have spent years helping distressed persons and have brought thousands of their powers. They have made RICH, HAPPY AND HEALTHY through their powers. In tests they tell your mother's name before marriage, the names of all your family, their ages and description, the name and business of your present husband, the name and business of your future husband, the name of the young man who how calls on you, the name of your future husband, and the day, month and year of your marriage, how many children you have or will have, how much money you have to true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart they will tell you when you will have one and his name, business and date of acquaintance. All your mother's names and your mother's plain manner. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children; young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts or intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all, do not let sly religious acuples prevent your consultations. There are some persons who believe that there is no truth to be gained from consulting a Medium, but such beliefs are contrary to the truth. It is only from the lack of discrimination that such a conclusion can be made. You can send cards himself or herself as a medium that can stand the test of what he or she claims.

From The New York Sun. With the troubles of "Old Man," in your edition of September 9, I can sympathetic, but, since the St. Louis fair, I will have to dissent from his sweeping aspiration of ragtime. I heard there the "Gillies band" of Scotland play a selection the intense rhythm of which made the ground wave under my feet. The weird and sentimental melody with unique harmonic treatment tempted me to revive, away into the dim misdistance and "see things." I was diligent to learn what this music was and found that it was one of Scott Joplin's rags, "The Maple Leaf," "Sunflower," "Cascades," or one of the others, "don't know which" Scott Joplin is? He is a young and mentored Negro from the swamps of Arkansas. Is not this food for thought? Educated natuclians have released the literature of all nations. Their compositions are evolved from the experiences of people who had never heard what we call good music. His pieces bud out from his own consciousness and are real creations. They are not light and trashy. They are profound and difficult. I believe they are all published. Great and well known in the East. Great and a number of rags—and mark this prediction: They will find their way to all countries, be played by the cultured musicians everywhere and welcomed into the drawing rooms and boudoirs of good taste.

While English Servants Excel Becomes Behanging to Fixed Herditory Class — We Must Learn To Do Whatever We Try the Best We Can. Staff Correspondence of The Ack. Bostrox, October 9.—The domestic service problem is one of the most difficult of solution in American life, for the simple reason that American life is at bottom essentially democratic. Here there are no ruling classes. All power, theoretically at least, and to a large extent practically also, comes from the people. And the people include both the servant and the master classes. Politically, therefore, the vote on election day of a man's servant counts as much, goes as far, as that of his own. Biddy in the kitchen is as close to the source of power as is the mistress in the parlor. For Biddy's father's Biddy has no mark, on it to distinguish it from that of the millionaire father of the mistress when the returns are counted. And Biddy's son may climb as high up on the political ladder in city, State and Nation as the heir of a Rockefeller, or Aster, or Vanderbilt. Socially and politically everything is in a state of flux in the United States. Those who are up to-day may be down toorrow, and those who are down in one generation may be on top in the next one, they or their descendants. Nothing is stable, nothing is fixed. Social condition, like the tides, is subject to ebb and flowa. Those who come in on the flood may get out on ebb. At any rate, every time an American tide floods many classes below are brought up to the classes above, and every time the same ebb many from classes below are carried down to classes below. So a healthy circulation is maintained through the body politic, and from bottom of the body social as well in the Republic. Under such circumstances the American domos, the American source of power, is kept seasonably in a social sense, safely pure in a social sense also. "That is, this has been brought up to the present time. Health of bodies political and social is mainly maintained by the use of their social circulation. As a healthy circulation is free, their health is assured. But when it is impaired, arrested for any cause, it comes to a pause also and disease first in one part and then in another of the body so affected, whether social or political. A stagnant economy implies a moribund body. So an economy for whatever cause our American democracy shall cause to circulate from top to bottom, from top of it to the extremities of it. There is a dead democracy, by which an industrial photocopy or television is sent out of the people. The end of this have come in the one case no other. then, there cannot be in an American democracy like the American for separating different parts from one another. Class may be normally all right in each case distinctions may be right in Asia, but they can right in the American Republic the American Republic holds ground principles, remains its National ideal of liberty English servant class is superior American servant class because practically a fixed class and is a fixed class. The English class of today, i.e., the most of it comes from a long trained servant, from mothers in the art and mystery of the members of this part with their lot, with their British social system, do change it for a higher one, of this immobility on their sett to vocations or occupa- tions from the use into which the servant has been literary occupation, down to them from a distant ancestors. in the English domestic problem is a different problem America. And because America industrial democracy, problem is the most in the world. The Southern white woman day on the street soon of the white abol- black overview of the to share her with the Hill Amity" is typical of the answer of her is "I mind your And this is what is the black ser- in effect every day master or the mistress are your servants, your equals; and spirit like that good but not assuredly but there can never be happiness in American employing classes themselves to do servants learn to willingly. What surely worth do- for the laws of the actions they of the things which our shell find to do in this shell find more than mere production of good work, obviously demands some more things that they perform into it ourselves. This put it into one's work, this best with one's task, is since it doubles, age, only the moral effect upon the economic value of the world's market as well, individuality, character, not a class, morality work, if the labor is doing be no more than distinct a room, making washing dishes, and puts by itself.

He is not only person of his age, but he is industriously, the strongest of the race also, the fittest of the battle for bread, in that in which he is engaged for existence. It was Daniel was once naked by someone, then he was one more in the legal here. At the top," was the senten- of the great lawyer. At the profession, of each trade of every degree and kind of human labor, there is room as in the legal profession. Up there is always broad, something profitable to do, a better chance to make or to get or to hold down below where the crowd of poor and indifferent workers jostle and trample one another in the mad struggle for employment, for food, for life itself. Above there is always enough for all who have got up there, below is just the reverse. There is not enough work, not enough food, not enough life-for the fools who swarm and buns and sting one another below for the crumbe and bones which fall from the tables of the rich. What then? Shall we of us who are servants remain below amid this awarm of poor and indifferent workers, or get out of it all, above it all into the class of honest, efficient service, where there is a better chance to do and to become, where opportunity offers its open-door to those who do their beat, their utmost, whenever their lips of work have fallen to them, whether at first in pleasant or unpleasant conditions, we win, we win, certainly for those of us who are servants to make of ourselves good servants, efficient servants, to begin to climb to the top in our class in order the better to fit ourselves and ours for higher things, for the doing of higher work. Oh, if we as a race, whatever may be the lot of us in this land of cruel cruel prejudice and proscription, could once get this truth into our heads, and into our hearts, too, that the people, whether white or black, who look conscientiously to the quality of their work, always find that the truth it takes the weapon care itself. Such people, who believe in or color, must ultimately get enough to do and more. Their problem is not to find something to do but time in which to do it. Their problem is not how to create demand for their labor, but how to turn out a supply large enough to supply, to meet it. They are the people, friends, who put thought into drudgery, their life into their labor. They are the people who succeed, who discovered the secret of success, when they learned to meet it, and to do under all circumstances and conditions and in all the relations of their lives, however high or humble, because of the love they bear the things which they have to do. To be as good workmen as our mothers and fathers we have got to be better, and to be as strong as our white competitors in the labor market of the country we have got to be stronger. Our work has got to be more honest, more faithful, more thorough, more efficient than theirs if we mean to hold the ground already occupied by us, and to add more to it. If, therefore, there is a general tendency of labor to turn out poor work, dishonest work, shabby work, we must make our work more and more honest, though it is not that we are good workmen as the whites in America, either in the realm of mind or matter, we have got to be better, and that to be as strong industriously as they we have got to be stronger, are indeed hard saying; but, friends, all the same they are worthy of all acceptance.

The bridging room in question comes of one of the best Filipino families: has spent several years in leading universities of the United States; has received a finished polish to an already refined and mainly character. Young Torres is of that class of Filipinos. The Gossip mentioned in its last issue in the editorial on annexation, of that class of which a country might well be proud; of that class that strives and works for the best interests of the Philippines, silently and effectively, not only and uselessly. He has earned many distinctions in the United States by purity. The Gossip has no desire to hash itself into a storm of heroes. It is simply striving to uphold the honor of our American womanhood, and help protect a lonely white woman that seems to have incurred the venom of abuse from many sides. Look at the number of American women that marry Japanese! Are they ruthlessly condemned? Look at the Americans that marry Japanese women! The son of J. Pierpont Morgan married a Japanese woman, and is she socially ostracized? The daughters of the Chinese-Mexico A. Abong, the Hondouin millionaire, have married into the highest army and naval circle as well as into prominent civil circles. Are they social outcasts? The American lady, the wife of the young son of Judge Torres, is no doubt sensibly deaf to the denunciations that appear from time to time. The Filipino women, the ordinary type of the low-brow, impudent major, who merely live with a sort of comparison with the elbowed Filipino ladies legally married to Americans, and any American who, by merely being married to a Filipino lady, thinks himself thereby a social outcast is not doing himself or his wife plain justice. It is alone the white men that will illegally live with low-bred and ignorant Filipino women that The Gossip has waged a censure against, in its attacks on "squawmen," and The Gossip is in no way changing its opinions of the past, but is simply striving to lead the light of Justice to the foe. It honors and respects the white men that legitimately well-bred Filipino women in honesty and in good faith. If the elevation of the Philippine Islands is to become an established fact, and if the islands are to remain a lasting possession in the United States, which we believe will be the case, then intermarriages between well-bred and educated Filipinos and Americans are not to be deceived, and be encouraged. While The Gossip does not advocate promiscuous intermarriages, still it applauds the example of those who dare face the opinions of a perverse and blind world, and taking the bull by the horns, fearlessly carry out principles of honesty and good faith.

Are the South, Irish and Celtic Manchetched Negress?—If so, the Rev. Thomas Dixon May Be One Two-Celtic-Ward and Ruddy-Nome Origin of Our Southern Aristocracy. To the Editor of The New York Asc: It is said that the ancient Britains sprang from Brutian or Brute, the grand son of Aeneus, one of the heroes of the ancient Trojan wars. The legend serves as a splendid point of contact to the historians, who tell us that the Anglo-Saxon race, with its noble achievements, is, as it were, descended from the old Olympian gods. But now come such leading scientist as Prof. A. H. Keane, Sergi and Topinard, teaching the hypothesis that the Scotch, the Scotch-Irish, the Celts of Ireland and the Scandinavians are the lineal descendants of the Iberian (black folk who immigrated into Europe from Africa in pre-historic times, trodgytes, or people who lived in caves. The science of archology and ethnology teach that these black African immigrants sought new homes in Europe before the dawn of history, and that their long residence of centuries in Scandinavia, Engl The richest scholarship of the world no longer believes in the Indo-European origin of the white races of Europe, which is only a theory based upon "linguistic paleontology." It is just as hard to prove that the white races of Europe are of an Indo-German origin as it is to construct an equilateral triangle without a base or an upex—it just cannot be done. The strongest probability is that the race to which the author of "The Clanman" and "The Leopard's Spots" belongs is the race which is a descendant of the black Iberian; and as the Iberian race can be traced to no African origin, the race to which the modern scholarship Hence "The Clanman" and "The Leopard's Spots" were written by a bleached Negro, since the race to which he belongs sprang, says the modern scholarship, from the loins of the prehistoric Negro. Salust, the Roman historian, speaks of "Black Celts; and possibly the ancestors of Scotland and Scotland which settled in the colonies of Pennsylvania, Virginia and the Carolinas, were among these "Black Celts." Prof. J. Spencer Bassett, in his work on "White Servitude in the Colonies of North Carolina," says: "The first slaves in North Carolina were white people, who were sold to the colonial planters for n term of years ranging from 7 to 22 years. Mr. J. G. Bullhagh, in his "White Servitude in the Colony of Virginia," tells the same story of the white servants in the old Dominion. The kinds or classes of servants were: (1) The indentured servants; (2) Black servants; (3) British indentured servants; and (4) the transported felons, criminals and outcasts of Scotland and English prisons. In his work on "The Red-impression and Indentured Servants of the Colony and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania," Carl Gisser speaks of the numerous Anglo-Saxons who were sold to the large landowners in the Keystone State. Ballaugh says: "The indentured servants, who formed the largest class of white persons in Virginia, came from England. Scotland, Ireland and Wales." In accusating the lanked indentured servants on the floor of the house in 1758, "If ever the bill came forward again, he hoped it would comprehend the white as well as the black slaves, who were imported from all the jails of Europe, wretches connected of the most flagrant crimes, brought into the country the annoter and sold. It may have been that the annoter and the author of "The Chamman" and "The Leopard's Spots" were among the againted criminals who were sold into Virginia. North Carolina had a large number of indentured servants against the admission into this country of vagalands, paupers and other countries of a large white criminal element against which Mr. Ranks of South Carolina protested on the floor of the House in the year 1750. He allowed to them as "convicts and criminals who pour out of British jails." Rev. Mr. Berrham, in his "History of the German Settlement in North and South Carolina" quotes Hawks "History of North Carolina" who stated the number of "indentured servants and swepers of London kennels" while Gisser mentions that the "street-walkers" of Bristol and London were banished to the colonies, where they became the leaders in society in Baltimore, Charleston, New York and other large towns. So that all the American colonies were the penal colonies according to "The Historians' History of the World," vol. 22, page 55. Governor Dale in 1611 begged the King of England to send "all offenders condemned to die to Virginia" between them and 10,000 criminals from British, Spanish Irish and Dutch settlers to America. Maybe the answerers of the author of "The Leopard's Spots" were in this number. In 1739 Dr. Samuel Johnson, writing in the Gentleman's Monthly, called the proud Anglo-Saxons of America "a race of convicts." Dutch vagrants and convicts, both men and women, were sent to the colony of New Amsterdam, now New York State, and sold for three to six pounds sterling. All of the colonial settlements were "pound colonies," whicheddispensed women from the English, Scottish and Irish cities into Boston prisons were from time to time sent. From these the "poor whites," the "crankers" and "clayers" of the South, who dote on the "grandfather clause," "Mr James Crow," and other class legislation. It is not generally known that Senator Benjamin Rillman Tillman's parents, before they moved to South Carolina, came from Maryland or Delaware, which States were the biggest convict camps in the colonies. Now, then, the descendants of these convicts are the persons who are conscious of the colored people, who, unlike Dr. Samuel Johnson's "race of convicts," did not spring from a race of prostitutes, and criminals, but are of fair manners. The others are the people who want to educate, separate race preachyities in the churches, and a separate "cabin" in addition to the one in which he keeps his wife and family. The descendants of these people are the ones whose virtues are canonized by Mr. Dixon in his books. The descendants of these people should stop trying to "play" "Blind-buck-and-Davy" with the American colored people and read Gottlob Mittelberger's "Bourne to Pennsylvania in the Year 1750," or James Parton's "Life of Thomas Jefferson," or Wade's "History of the Middle Classes." They would find that many of those who would teach the colored men the Ten Commandments were appalled by Virginia, saws would but be rid of them. Or, if the world but had Benton's "Debates in Congress" vol. I, page 74, they could trace their lineage back to some transformed, felon or criminal, who may have been purchased at the dock of Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Charleston, or Savannah. While New England, in the strict sense of the term, was not a penal settlement, "prisoners taken in the Scotch and Irish wars were sold into New England." Then 240 WEST 60th ST. TO LET New England settlers purchased transported convicts, and James Davis Butler, in an article published in The American Historical Review for October, 1883, says: "Irishmen were sold for a century in Boston." Maine has a large criminal element among its earlier settlers. ("Historians' History of the World," vol. 22, page 182). I learned therefore of the Angle-Saxons holding race prejudice and harring the colored people out of the mills, foundries and factories, and disfranchising in the South, the most loyal element of her citizens on the "principle of expediency," he should be like the lower, spoken of in the Scripture, who, in his bare head and with covered lips, stood without the camp of the chosen people of God and cried: "Unclean! Unclean!" JAS. M. BODY. Troy, N. Y., October 2, 1905. ASK AID FOR NEW CHURCH. Lettition Inauged by Rochester Committee—Ganton-Miller, Wedding. ROCHESTER, October 9.—The committee having in charge the erection of a memorial church for the A. M. E. Zion church, of which Rev. J. W. Brown is pastor, issued the following appeal for financial aid last week: "Rochester, N. Y. "DEAR FRIENDS: There are many problems before the American people to be solved, none of which is of more weight and importance than the race problem. With a few exceptions the Afro-American citizens of this city are all good and useful citizens, owners of homes and builders of families, but the majority of them are poor, yet honest and industrious people. The training and development of this class is the crying need and duty of the hour. "We think it is better that there should be a church on every street corner rather than a bar room. We, therefore, desire to erect a 'Memorial Church' on the old site of the A. M. E. Zion church; this church to be dedicated to the memory of all those who died in defense of the American flag. We appeal to you in the spirit of patriotism to help us to build this edifice, that our people may have a decent place for the worship of the Almighty. Many of our citizens have contributed to the education of colored people in the South, through agents who are constantly on the field, but there is work to be done near home and one that should concern you more. We have eleven hundred Afro-Americans in this city who are at your door and we are now appealing to you in behalf of them and Christianity, because we desire to hold the moral stature of our church worthy and creditable to the good name of our city. Our people are poor and we cannot build without your aid. "Should you desire to help, this worthy cause, please make out your check payable to Hon. H. C. Trowster, president Traders' National Bank." The concert given at Zion church on October 5 under the management of Mrs. R. L. Kent, was largely attended and enjoyed the feature of the entertainment was the singing of the fill-in children on October 5, Mrs. Milner, Mr. John Gantons were married by Rev. J. W. Brown at the residence of the bride's grandmother at 251 Troup street, only the family and a few friends were present. Miss Martha Gantons, the groom's sister, of Pittsburg, Pa., was the bride-smaid and Mr. F. R. Price acted as best man. A reception was tendered the bride and groom in the evening at the residence of the bride's parents, 69 Ford street, where a large number of friends met and extended congratulations. Rev. A. S. Mays, pastor of Trinity church, was knocked from his house last Thursday by an automobile and somewhat injured, where his impaired left arm was attached to. He filled his pulpit as usual last Sunday. He had, however, a narrow escape from death. James Sturrup returned to the city last Wednesday, J. R. Mason, master of Tyre lodge, No. 43, of Buffalo, was in the city a few hours Saturday night on Masonic business: Charles Haley of Bath, registered at the Powers Thursday, Miss Louise M. Wright of New York, who has been visiting Mrs. J. E. Masons and friends, returned to that city Wednesday. Invitations are out for the Clever Leaf social club's reception and ball on October 31. WILL WANT THEM IN WAR TIMES. From The Odd Fellow Journal From The Ond Fellow Journal. The Georgia Legislature has passed an act dividing the amount of the colored colonies of the state of Florida into five. The all other Southern whites, the Georgians do not want colored men to handle the implements of war. They fear that they will some day be outnumbered by blacks in liberty. And yet if our government were enforced in a war with a foreign nation, Georgia would want to fill her quota with colored men, war as possible before calling out white ones. 774 Ninth Avenue, near 52d Street WILL ENTERTAIN PRESBYTERIANS. Englewood Planning for Council Meeting on October 26. ENGLEWOOD, N. J., October 16.—The different committees of Bethany Presbyterian chapel in charge of the entertainment of the Presbyterian council, which will convene in the chapel on Thursday afternoon, October 26, are busily arranging an elaborate entertainment for the delegates. On Friday evening, October 27, they will be given a public entertainment and reception at Armory Hall. Peter H. Fisher, Jr.'s full orchestra, of Brooklyn, will furnish music for the occasion. The committee hopes to make it one of the most brilliant affairs that Englewood has ever witnessed. The funny and variety entertainment by the ladies of the chapel on October 4 to raise money to entertain the council was a splendid success. Those desiring to attend the council, which will be in session four days, can reach Englewood by way of Fort Lee ferry, foot of 129th street, New York city, and thence by trophy. The home of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Schenck, 25 Englewood avenue, was the scene of a large and pleasant gathering Wednesday evening, October 4. This occasion was the marriage of Mist: Anna Parker and William A. Jordan. The bridge-wore organie, triumphed in valence race, and carried a bouquet of pink roses, Miss Lovinia Woodson, was maid of honor. She was also attired in white organie, trimmed in white ribbons, and dressed in a white dress. William Jackson acted as best man. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. R. Lauton. Mr. Joseph Mosby, the newly elected president of the V. P. S. C. E. of Bathley chapel, conducted the meeting last Sunday night. The energetic and efficient man in which he took charge last Sabbath impressed all concerned in the work that in him the chapel has an addition of a very capable young man and active worker. Mr. William Jackson, chairman of the Look Out committee, called upon the society to help him in his effort to furnish the infant room for a reading room for the young people. The chapel committee was recently organized with Mr. Edward C. Pogue as treasurer and William Douglas as secretary. Mr. H. Wright was elected to fill the unexpired term of Edward N. Laws, until meetings are in progress at the Shaker church. Institutions are out announcing the marriage of Miss Julia Wells to Mr. William Hudson on October 19. AUSTIN-STEPHENS WEDDING. Swell Event in Richmond Society James H. Hayes, Mother, HL RICHMOND, October 11.—The most brilliant social event of last week was the marriage of Miss Maggie Elizabeth Stephens to Mr. William Austin. The marriage was solemnized at the First Baptist church Wednesday afternoon, the Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson officiating, assisted by the Rev. Dr. D. Webster Davis. At the hour announced for the marriage, the bridal party entered as follows: Mr. Floyd Priver and Mr. John Bagley, Mr. Edward Wallace Stephens, brother of the bride, and Mr. Frank Powell, Mr. Phillip Clarke and Mr. Joseph Charity, Miss Julia K. Stephens, maid of honor and sister of the bride, and the bride and her brother, Mr. George St. Julien Stephens. At the altar they were met by the groom and his best mugger, Mr. Humphrey Osborne Stephens, brother of the bride; and the words were "and that united the happy couple "till death them part." Mr. and Mrs. Austin are spending their honeymoon in Baltimore and Philadelphia. With the coming of the fall season our literary and art circles have resumed their work for the season. The Friday Evening Art and Literary circle held its initial meeting of the season last Friday night at the residence of Miss Julia E. Robinson. A program for the fall season was arranged and weekly meetings will be held regularly. "Princess Bonnie" was presented at True Reformers' hall Monday night by the Richmond Musical n. n. Dramatic association. The entertainment is being given for the benefit of Women's Central liqueque hospital association numbers among its membership some of the best musical talent in Richmond. Dr. J. Mende Benson, the High street pharmacist, left the city Thursday for Howard University, where he is taking a course in medicine. Mrs. Harriett Hayes, mother of James H. Hayes, is quite sick at her home in St. John street. The work of remodelling Sixth Mr. Zion Baptist church is nearing completion. T. To 761 Fulton St, Brooklyn DR.

That the Republican, managers of the Mayoralty contest in this city wish to place the campaign on a high level and to name a ticket which will deserve the confidence and admiration of the New York voters was shown by the nomination of Mr. Charles E. Hughes for Mayor on last Friday night. Unfortunately, Mr. Hughes considers that his labors in unmasking scandals in high life insurance are of greater importance than fighting to oust Tammany Hall, and he therefore declines to run. Still, we must do credit to Mr. Halpin and his associates, because they showed a desire to throw the strength of their party to the support of a man so admirable, so upright, in every way so irreproachable, as is Mr. Hughes. Their nomination of him allows us to hope that the candidate finally decided upon will be a man of equally high type. Many Republicans are feeling a bit uneasy because the election is drawing so near and the party is still without a candidate. We hope he will have been chosen by the time this article reaches our readers. Things the President Might Do. 2 We hope that President Roosevelt will not pass through the South without bringing to the heavy-laden hearts of that portion of the population which truly reveres and loves him, namely, the Afro-Americans, some titlings of good cheer, some tangible token of his friend-hip. There is now a revival of lynching in the South and every black man's life, however prosperous, honorable and cultural he may be, is totally at the mercy of any white woman, however abandoned. Let the President speak to his white audiences a strong and indignant word against lynching. Our civil rights in the South are universally thwarted on public carriers and in places of public entertainment. Let the President, in his impressive way, tell his white hears how ignobly at variance such discriminations are with the vital ideals of a democracy. Our political rights are nullified in six Southern States. Let the President, the highest servant of American principles, scarcely remind the white South that no man is good enough to be the ruler of another; that taxation without power to choose representatives is tyranny; and that any attack on the Constitution, whether by violence or subterfuge, is treason. Will the President do these things? We shall see. Governor Weight May Quit the ]] Philippines. It has been announced in the public press that Governor Luke E. Wright of the Philippine Commission will resign "the good thing" when he visits the United States, in December, and take up the practice of the law. This would be a happy but unlooked for outcome of the situation. Luke E. Wright of Tennessee should never have been appointed on the Philippine Commission by President McKinley; his appointment to be Governor of the Philippine Islands by President Roosevelt was not only a blunder but a political crime, as we stated in Turt. AGI at the time; which statement results now show to have been true. It was only, a few weeks ago that Secretary Taft gave Governor Wright and his administration of the Philippine Islands his endorsement; but we thought at the time and still think that Secretary Taft was blushing. --- Editor Graves' Imagination. Editor Graves Imagination. The Hon. John Temple Graves is editor of The Atlanta News. He possesses an imagination as luxuriant as a tropical jungle. On the race question he and the good Bishop Henry M. Turner think alike on the main point, that the Afro-American people have no possible honorable future in the United States. In the quality of his intellectuals Mr. Graves resembles somewhat the late Henry W. Grady, of The Atlanta Constitution, although he is not as hysterical as Grady in his statement of the errors that buzz in his head. Mr. Graves is an admirer of President Roosevelt, which is a redeeming virtue possessed by but few Southern white men. Mr. Graves is feverishly anxious that other Athena white men should feel as he does towards the President; but we believe it will be anxiety wasted. Well, Mr. Graves has tried to help along his way of thinking by publishing what he considers to be "the real thing" about the dinner Dr. Washington had with the President. His view of it was pleasing to his Atlanta renders, we dare say, but it was not the truth. The Atlanta Independent makes this plain by placing by the side of Mr. Graves' statement that Mr. Francis E. Leupp, long time able and veracious Washington correspondent of The New York Evening Post, and one of the President's confidential friends. Dr. Washington ate dinner with the President. That is the long and short of that statement of the case, and no statement that Mr. Graves may make can obliterate the fact. Equally true is it that the American newspapers and pub- lie opinion whipped the white South to a standstill when the subject was uppermost in discussion. Why do not John Temple Graves and other Southern-white men accept the verdict rendered against them by the Nation and the civilised world? What is to be gained by continuing to harp upon it? Do not Mr. Graves and those who think as he does know when they are whipped? Reduction of Southern Representation. The Ack's campaign last year against the suicidal proposition to reduce the South's representation in Congress and the Electoral College was so victorious that there is absolutely no possibility of the Congress ever attempting to put this proposition in force. Therefore, our readers may be interested in a recapitulation of the arguments by which this momentous result was obtained. The Fourteenth Amendment, we hardly need explain, after clothing, the freedman with civil rights, provided that no State should deprive him of the ballot without suffering a proportionate reduction of representation. The inevitable corollary of this provision, that any State might disfranchise the Afro-American if willing to suffer a curtailment of its representation, was obvious to all, condemned by some, and intended by others, of those who enacted the Amendment. This last class, out of compunction for the prostrate South, supported the Amendment because it really left to that section itself the choice between the enfranchisement and disfranchisement of its former slaves. We all know how the South responded to this—as the event showed—too generous deference to its wishes. By means of lettering labor and vagrant laws, the Thirteenth Amendment itself was attacked and the blacks were for the moment depressed into a condition more cruel than frank slavery had been. Ex-operated by this defiance, the Congress last swered up its courage to the sticking point and boldly crossed the Rubicon of Negro suffrage; the Fifteenth Amendment, impressively ordering that no man shall be deprived of the ballot on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude, was passed. This grand instrument, which is without previous or contingencies, which does not, like the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment, temporarily provide opportunities and temptations for its own abrogation, is the fitting climax of the United States Constitution, and is the sole, sufficient and compromising guarantee of the political rights of ten millions of human beings. Two opinions as to the Fifteenth Amendment divide into two classes those who favor the reduction of the South's representation. The first class, beholdful the best able of our political fortunes, in desolation abandon the Fifteenth Amendment as forever impracticable and desire only to punish the South, "That section" they cry, "has robbed us of our political rights"; Congress and the Supreme Court have declined to restore them to us, let us, then, take revenge on the authors of our plight by stripping them, as the Fourteenth Amendment authorizes, of those Congressional and Electoral powers which belong to us, but which they have high handedly usurped." But that the demand is utterly unreasonable and robbed, is made evident by the reflection that neither the Congress nor the Supreme Court will consent to reclassify the South for an action which both have refused to declare illegal. The other class of those who favor the reduction of Southern representation hopes to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment by means of the Fourteenth, "The South," they claim, "hates political impotence worse than it does the Afro-American. Therefore, if that section saw its power in the Nation cut in half, it would speedily, to recover its lost representation, bestow the bailout upon the Afro-Americans now disfranchised." But an inspection of the facts shows this contention to be as visionary and preposterous a contention can be. Six States, Virginia, North and South Caroline, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, have disfranchised their black citizens. In two of these States, South Carolina and Mississippi the black votables outnumber the white, in the former by over 20,000 and in the latter by about 50,000. Does anyone imagine that the whites in these two States, if their representation were reduced, would be such great inebeciles as to grant the ballot and therefore the entire government of those States to their black majorities? Now, suppose that the representation of the other four disfranchising States, which possess white majorities, were proportionately curtailed. What advantage would these States gain by disfranchising their Afro-American citizens? None whatever, but, on the contrary, a great disadvantage. Would the new black voters be so crazy as go re-elect those white Democrats to whom they owed their recent disfranchisement? No man of sense can believe so. A crop of Southern white and black Republicans would immediately spring up in Congress and the Electoral Congress and weaken the already diminished National influence of the Democratic rulers of the South by cleaving to and reinforcing the Republicans of the North. So we cannot evade the conclusion that all the six States with disfranchising constitutions would acquiesce, undoubtedly with many complaints and reproaches, in the reduction of their representation if the price of regaining it. In full were the enfranchisement of their black citizens. What, then, would be our condition? If we came lamenting to the North that the South still withheld our ballots, what would the North reply? "Go to," it would say, "have we not already punished our Southern brothers severely for your sake? Have we not lessened their representation in your behalf? What more do you want, oh, ye greedy ones?" Thus would our disfranchisement become permanent, hopeless, colored with legality. What then, you ask, are we to do? After all this argument, our distranchishment still remains a fact, a reality. What positive plan for relief have you to offer? Well, this: In these Northern States we have more political power than we are aware of. Our Afro-American Republican leaders can demand with success, if they have the courage to do so and their followers the constancy to back them up, that the National Representatives shall pledge themselves to contest the seating of every Representative from disfranchising States, and not to shirk a decision when such contests are instituted. Our Democratic leaders, too, in cities like New York, Boston and Chicago, can similarly influence powerful Democrats in our favor. And, above all, we must base our agitation on the Fifteenth Amendment and relegate to the limbo of all timid, irresolute and impracticable measures the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment. Why Labor Is Sparse in the South A special dispatch from Birmingham to The Montgomery Daily Advertiser says: "The labor question is a serious problem that is confronting the businessmen of this district and the big corporations. The cry for labor is being heard on all sides, but there is no response. The foundry and steel men state that twenty thousand laborers could be used at once, if the men could be had." Why should any one wonder why there is scarcity of labor in the South? Almost every newspaper, published by white men in the South contains one or more columns of abuse of the Afro-American people, who are the main labor dependence of the South. Of course, this abuse makes the Afro-American careless and indifferent; not only that, it results in many of the best laborers leaving the South. Of course foreigners hour of the abuse heaped upon Afro-American laborers, and get the notion in their heads that all laborers will be treated in the same manner, and so they shun the South. Statistics show that the South is losing its reliable Afro-American labor by reason of its vile class legislation, by its mob violence based in neither rhyme nor reason, by its inadequate public school system and by the malignant monthings of Dixon, Vardaman and their sort; and statistics also show that while losing its efficient Afro-American labor it is not succeeding in the systematic effort to secure other labor to take its place. Of a truth, "Winn the gods would destroy the first; make mind." The members of the Hon Ten Clyde through championed by nearly every daily newspaper in New York, got cold feet and lost their nerve when summoned to appear before Mr. McAdoin against the policemen who had claimed and destroyed their property in a recent trial. Would the Irish, or the Jews, or the Italians, have shown so little spirit? That the Republican leaders of this State are waking up to a debated appreciation of their loyal, vindictive Afro-American followers is known by the appointment to first-class places of five Afro-American Republicans within the last month, and by the selection an unprecedented thing—of Mr. Gilchrist Stewart to second in behalf of the immense Borough of Manhattan the nomination of Mr. Charles E. Hughes for mayor. The Hartford Command, in commenting upon the statement in Tivy Aur that at a dinner to Secretary Taft and his parts, in Madison, Governor Curry of Samar threw a champagne glass, with its contents, in the face of Alabie Herrera, says: "The correspondent mentions, rather unnecessarily, that the incident was kept out of the Maula papers and the cable dispatches. Perhaps it didn't occur." Well, it does appear improbable, but it is not, for, as we personally know, some very incredible things happen in the Philippine Islands as the out come of American rule. The Athenaeans once, after they had been reduced by the Romans, met to debate whether they should celebrate gladiatorial games after the fashion of their conquerors. An old philosopher rising, "Let us first," said he, "vote to overthrow the altar of Pity." The Athenaeans, greatly moved, so solved never to admit the bloody Roman circus. With wilt glory to themselves may those pagan Greeks of the first century bear a comparison with the Christian Texans of the twelfth century, who petition their governor for permission to burn human belongings at the stake. --- The most frantic and ollous attempt ever made to set race hatred on fire is the dramatization of Thomas Dixon's "The Clansman." This book, which exerts, says a Southern white paper, "the grip of the blood call that is like a strangle hold," was when merely read in secondary enough; and the quadrupling of its passions by means of the stage's sorcery none but a madman like Thomas Dixon would dare be responsible for. The play has been damned by the Richmond white press. Perhaps, like an overdose of poison, it will prove its own antidote. DON'T YOU GET YOUR PAPER? 16 Not. Tell Your Troubles to the New York Postoffice. The New York post office is appropriate working on the principle that paper that is good enough for newspaper mail. About a foot or a fourth is delivered with a semblance of punctuation; the remainder contends in negotiations hearing the mark days for as newspaper from Philadelphia four from Boston and a week from Washington counts stale mail too much. A small space is better than no delivery, as is the space between a letter and a receipt. A sheet of newspaper mail is one of the mysteries of this postoffice. GARRISON'S CENTENNIAL. From The New York Evening Post. Month after next, as The Hartford Cour- tant reminds us, the William Lloyd Garrison centennial will be along. The eminent multifaceted was born December 10, 1858. Principal Booker Washington expresses in that the Negroes of this country will observe the anniversary fittingly and untimely. As it falls on a Sunday, he suggests sermons and addresses about Mr. Garrison in all their churches. Do you wish to be disfrunched! If so, do not register. You cannot vote unless you register. Only, two more days of registration remain. They are Saturday of this week, October 14, and Monday of next week, October 18. Register, unless you want to be disfrunched! OCTOBER 12, 1986 Body and Bone the Requt of the Rapid Education - Their, Displorable Insecurity - Ways and Means for Impriving Them, by Pressure on School Officials and by Voluntary Tension. Tuk Ack is glad to publish and heartily endorses the following plan by Dr. Booker T. Washington for the betterment of common schools in the South. The lives of only a small number of the race are directly touched by our colleges and industrial institutes, so that almost the entire burden of the education of our masses tests on the common schools. If our illiteracy has been cut in half by means of the mongre and feeble, educational opportunities we have enjoyed, what progress could we not display if these educational opportunities, were made universal and excellent? Here follows the article: To the Colored People in the Southern States: A great many questions relative to our progress as a race it is important for us to consider and to keep clearly before us. One of the questions just now of fundamental importance is that of securing facilities for a sound common school education of the masses of our children, especially in small towns and country districts. The large majority of our children will never, perhaps, have the opportunity to receive any school education except what they get between the ages of five and fourteen years, and will never have opportunity to attend any other than common public schools. And yet here in our Southland hardly more than one-fifth of the Negro children five to nine years of age and hardly more than one-half from ten to fourteen years of age were reported by the United States Census to have attended school at all in 1900. And of all our children who did attend school during that school year, over three-fifths attended less than six months. In many cases, while the schools are open, parents are careless about seeing that their children attend school each day. This fault should be remedied. I use these figures because they express compactly, though of course not exactly, a condition of utmost gravity. And remember that such figures give no hint of the similar of so many of our schools and the in- I wish through this letter to urge upon our ministers, teachers and leaders of whatever character to put forth especial and hands-on effort to see to it that the school facilities in each community are approved and brought up to a high standard of efficiency. If this is not done many thousands of our children will grow up in ignorance. Whatever the reason may be, the plain fact remains that in many communities our people are not provided with education in public schools. I have recently heard of several communities where only $15 per month was appropriated from the public fund forcolored children, and this for only a term of four months. We must face the fact that the public schools in many sections are not being improved, and that in some parts of the South they have gone backward. It is probable that the children of the race have increased faster than the facilities for their education in some places. At the basis of our education oppor- tunities, I may say, is the public school, and I think it wise to make that school the center of our interests and activities. We should not fail to make prominent at all times and cling to the fundamental idea of the American common school - that all of the property of the State should educate impartially all the children of all the people. It is not merely the man who enters the tax office who really pays the taxes; the laborer, who pays one mill more to the pound for a commodity because of a license tax, really pays the tax, however indirect the payment. By close examination, I find that in many communities the small amount of money received for public schools is in a large degree wasted and dissipated by reason of the denominational differences and wrangles over the school. For example, I know of one community that has three small schools of weak character, when there should be only one and that one good. The Baptists, have a school in one part of the town, the African Methodists a school in another part, and the Zion Methodists in still another part. Denominationalism has no place in public school education, and our people should crush that tendency to let denominationalism divide and overcome the public school. We should concentrate our efforts wherever possible, preferring one good school to two or three good ones. Our leaders should lay special emphasis on the following points : 1st. See to it that a good and efficient teacher is provided, and that if any qualification is lacking it should not be moral character. The teacher may be weak in other matters, but if he is morally wholesome he may greatly help the people. 2nd. A good teacher cannot be kept in a community from year to year without a reasonably good salary. A poor salary means a poor teacher in most cases, one who remains only a few months and then goes to some other community. It is cheaper in the long run to pay a larger salary for a good teacher than to pay a small salary to a poor teacher. and. If the public school authorities do not provide a decent, comfortable school-house, and every effort of the people to stimulate them has failed, the people in the community should tax themselves in order that a good, comfortable school-house may be built. Some of the school-fouses in which our children are taught are more fit cattle than for human beings. 4th. We should get the public officers to provide for as long a school term as possible. But no people can be educated when the school term session lasts only four or five months during the year. No community should be included until its school is in session seven or eight months during each year. If our people will save some of the money that they now throw away, especially during the full of the year, for whiskey, snuff, and cheap jewelry, they can with little difficulty add two or three months to the public school term. 5th. Let us make up our minds that despite difficulties and many disadvantages, our children in every section of the South shall have a decent education. We should never cease to agitate in every locality for proper school facilities. If our children and their children's children will grow up in ignorance, I repeat, the entire race will suffer. Now is the time for ministers, teachers, and parents to act quickly and vigorously, and we shall not regret the result. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., October 7, 1906. BONAPARTE HURT HIS CAUSE. Chief Issue in Maryland Is Negro, Not White, Diffranchisement. Secretary Bonaparte severely scores Senator Gorman because of the performance of the Maryland Democratic convention in making the disfranchisement of Negroes the sole issue in the coming State election. The point that Mr. Bonaparte insists upon is that the Poe amendment would also disfranchise white men. He is correct, of course; and his campaign strategy in endeavoring to defeat the amendment by arraigning against it all the white voters who can possibly be influenced may be a good field policy. But in laying the stress so much upon the comparatively few white men whose franchise would be imprisoned, Secretary Bonaparte seeks to avoid the question of the disfranchisement of Negroes. If all that the chief issue in Maryland troubles. A noticeable change came to Mr. Bonaparte's personal attitude after his notable speech in the spring or early summer in which he proclaimed: "The Republican party has even held with Voltaire that a good citizen needs no grandfathers; like Abraham Lincoln, it believes not in castes or oligarchies or privileged classes; like Theodore Roosevelt, it demands a square deal at the polls as elsewhere for every man, whatever his ambition. If a citizen shown by experience is a good man, let him be deeded the suffrage because of this individual unfitness, not because of his race or tongue or birthplace, nor because his grandfather was this or that." No younger doctrine could be found than is contained in those words. Yet when the Republican State convention met, under Mr. Romaparte's personal leadership, an entirely different spirit was infused into the party platform, especially into this plank: "The Republican parts of the State of Maryland are in social equality among the races, fathers of Negro domination over the white people here or elsewhere, and can be depended upon to guard against the establishment of either of these conditions in Maryland." While the pressing the Poe amendment, in short, the Republican platform repudiated in large part what Mr. Romaparte had previously said was distinctive Republican doctrine, as understood by Lincoln and Roosevelt. And now we find Mr. Bonaparte, along with others of his party, fighting the amendment mainly on the ground that it would permit the disfranchisement of a few white men. Such dolging of the chief issue does not encourage one to believe that the opposition to the Gorman program will make a winning fight, yet perhaps, being on the ground, have an insight into conditions denied to distant observers. Their policy, however, remains to be vindicated in the election. OCTOBER MAGAZINES. "The Southern Workman for this month points out, as indicating the stress which modern education in the South tends to place upon agriculture, the fact that there are seventy schools for Afro-Americans which have tracts of arable land attached, sometimes as much as several hundred acres. An article which merits a wide reading is that of Prof. Kelly Miller on "Surplus Negro Women," that is, women "for whom there are neither present nor prospective husbands." Their number is so great that in fifteen cities named by the author there would remain, if every Negro male were assigned a helpless, eighteen left over females for every hundred couples. The evil of such a situation is stated by Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gliman, whom Prof. Miller quotes, "Where women preponderate in large numbers," she says, "there is a proportionate increase in immorality, because women are cheap; where men preponderate in large numbers there is also immorality because women are dear." Prof. Miller adds that "these left-over, or to be left over, Negro women, falling as they do in large part in the lower stratum of society miss the inhibitive restraint of culture and social pride, and, especially if they be comely of appearance, become the easy prey of the civil designs of both races." However, he pays a deserved tribute to our women of culture and states a fact of which we have heard many of them justly complain: "Anyone who gains intimate knowledge of the better side of Negro life must be deeply impressed with the evident superiority of the progressive colored woman over the manly opportunities. This superiority can manifest in titration and character, but in their fearless and aggressive attitude towards rights and privileges. In many instances, and forced to a life of perpetual spiritual hardship, a dearth of men of the trioquite audition and progressive spirit" Prof. Miller finds the salvation of the masses of our left over women in their more systematic and efficient training for domestic service, in which by far the majority of them in the cities are engaged. NOTE AND COMMENT. The railroad and the telegraph wire are rapidly net-working the continent of Africa. Editor H. T. Johnson of The Christian Recorder has been encouraged to the condition of black folks in America by an inspection of the condition of the lower classes in Europe, and will write a series of articles from this point of view in his paper. The Union Transportation company of Nashville, Tenn., which is fighting the "Jim Crow" cars of that city, has not only purchased six automobiles but has secured an option on twenty others, capable of conveying 15 to passengers each. The city of Chicago was recently muled in $100,000 damages in favor of the Pauahan railroad for the burning of its freight cars in the riots during the bela strike of 1804. If we had a National law holding communities financially responsible for the depredations and murders committed in their limbs by mobs, these would not so invariably escape punishment. "No such agitrary, power as would be given to the registration officials under the Poe amendment should be tolerated in an American community," says The Springfield Weekly Republican. In discussing the proposed Maryland distranchising law, and this view of it will eventually prevail throughout all of the States of the Union. The effort of the White South to create a caste citizenship based on race will fail. Tuesday before last the theatrical troops which was preventing Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr.'s "The Clanman" in Richmond, hearing that the current Richmond Planet contained an editorial in reply to Dixon's recent article in The Saturday Evening Post, telephoned to The Planet office for a number of couples. These were sent; and then came from some source an order for all issues of The Planet in which Editor Mitchell has been running his series of rejoinders to Dixon. The Donaldson Chief, of Louisiana, which is a Republican newspaper after a fashion takes the view that the South opposes the social amenities of the rest of mankind. That is the sensible view of the matter. And the time will come when the absurd effort of Southern white men to regulate the social life of their own communities will have a peaceful or a bloody termination. If the Southern white men who are fomenting this social equality humbug were not knaves they could appropriately be branded as tools. There has been much literature about the expulsion of Afro-Americans from divers unskilled occupations by Italians. It is reassuring to note that Afro-Americans are beginning to invade a profession which has heretofore second-guably Italian. Philadelphia has a black man gender who, going his little steps one better, aggravates the sorrow and anguish of his instrument with the stinging of a vibrant tenor voice. "We're at a new eminent educator remanded by his soiled days. The man who never has a dollar to lend but always wants to borrow one, and the man who never has a job to give and always wants a job, will find his pathway through the world, studded with thorns. And a poverty stricken race will always be beaten and cuffed and discriminated against and lynched and otherwise mistreated by the law and irresponsible individuals, so that living will be a curse and not a blessing.

Regular Correspondence of THE AGE. (Ann. O., October 9.—Clincinnati on the border land. There are to be seen and felt the two ideas—the reactionary and the progressive—that divide America into a North and a South. On the one land we see hotels, theaters and other public places refusing to serve for many patrons too dark to harmonize with those who do; on the other, we see white and colored children attending the schools. One idea comes from Kentucky, right across the Ohio river; the other is the historic Ohio product. I am following the Arve and the Pioneer for more than a mile, after her residence at Genova, to see if the youths of the first, which occupied side of the river bed, would finally share with the clear blue tide of the land which slowed unmixed on the river bed. So far as I followed, the mix of occur, but I was told that real jobs further down it did. It is every good figure of what has occurred, what will occur with the soil that would American life—the soil of Pennsylvania Rock and the idea of America. They have run side by side among National life, as yet with another, who can doubt that the old system of the caste spirit will spread till it corrupts the allowed to do so? A few more towns of Ohio and Indiana, owing to their beaches, the border land of the two ideas, holds the views of a broad humble patriot from the North. The patriotics of the narrow spirit worthy but white, and the patriotism all others from the openness of communal life.

Brooks of South down Charles Sumner in it was the speech made by Bingham that, shock the arrogant Southern man and made them assume this defensive. When impeachment proceedings were brought against President Andrew Johnson, Mr. Bingham was made manager for the House, and history records show barely Andrew Johnson escaped. Previous to this, when Lincoln was assassinated, President Johnson had made Mr. Bingham Judge Advocate in the prosecution of the assassination, and for two months he was absorbed in the work of proving his case and securing convictions. His argument capping the course of the trial was as brilliant, touching and convincing as any oration that ever made foreseeable faux for a statesman beneath the Capitol house. We know the way, you devised to principle was how that when, in his opinion, the histories of the Nation demanded the impeachment of the very man who had made him Judge Advocate, he was not found wavering or wanting. Of such stuff were the old Romans made. Hardly were these strenuous activities past before the colossal question of the reconstruction of the Southern States was before the Nation for settlement. It was here that John A. Bingham rose to his greatest stature among statesmen and fixed the action of the Nation for all time so far as the suffrage is concerned. He was at once recognized by reason of his eminent ability and beonine courage as the proper man to shape the difficult legislation required to reorganize the country and give a proper status to the counties. He freeman, but dazed and defended himself, was, therefore, made chairman of the Commission on Reconstruction, and, dropping all other concerns, from that time till the formulation of the plan that obtained was completed, he devoted himself assiduously and almost exclusively to that one work. The result of his labors was the world-renowned Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, now the subject of renewed legislation. He wrote, this Amendment with his own hand, and much of it, especially the first section, is almost unchanged from his unpaid draft of it as submitted to Congress. This was the crowning glory of a glorious career. And now it is not hard to see why every Afro-American should revive the name of John A. Bingham; nor is it difficult to see why this little American Nazarchah called Cadiz gets so much space in this letter. In 1833 President Grant appointed Mr. Bingham minister to Japan, a position which he held with honor and acceptability for twelve years, retiring at the ripe age of seventy years with the beneficions of a prosperous and reunited Nation upon his head. As I gazed upon the high forehead and strong face of that bronze statue, there was in the little fringe of board shaved back from the chin, a la Horne Greyley, a suggestion both of the great New York editor and of the old Commander, Thaddeus Stevens. Here was the heroic mold of face and form that wherever found pressure strength and righteousness. Such men are great without effort and good without struggle. Their likes are emanations as natural as the turpentine oozing from the pine tree—nothing else is to be obtained. H. T. KEALING. CONCORD BAPTIST CHURCH. Silver Lock Club's Work for the Aged Missionary Society Electa Officers. Services at the Concord Baptist church in Brooklyn last Sabbath were largely attended throughout the day. At the morning service, Dr. W. T. Dixon proached on, "Constancy in Christian Fellowship." The Sunday School met at 2:30 in the afternoon and had a most interesting and helpful discussion of the lesson, "Daniel in the Lions' Den." A large number of new scholars joined the school. The attendance was 248; the collection $7.30. At the evening service Pastor Dixon presided the annual sermon to the Silver Lock club of the church, which was organized four years ago by Mrs. Ella F. Crowder and others for the purpose of assisting in the work of the Home for Aged Colored People, and a noble work they have done, both in finance and personal help. They visit the home once a month. Last year the club donated the expenses of this worthy institution $15, besides being instrumental in getting one or two aged persons into the home. This year the club on to this time has paid into the treasury of the home $19. The present membership of the club is 195 with the following officers: Mrs. Annie Johnson, President; Mrs. Solee Williams, vice president; Mrs. Solee Jesson, treasurer; Mrs. Chippeau, Mrs. Angela C. Dixon, adviser; Mrs. Lavinia L. Winters and Mrs. Mine Johnson Cook, secretaries. The treasurer's report showed a balance of $2635. Drill Dixon commanded the club very highly for its philanthropic work. The Doris Hope Missionary society holds its first full meeting on Friday evening, and after the adoption of the minutes of the July meeting board reports from the delegates to the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs. The report was read by Mrs. L. A. Bell and was a volume of helpful information, as was also the annual report of the society by Mrs. A. A. Perkins. These reports were commended by Dr. W. T. Dixon, Messrs. L. H. Berry, Pierre Zeno, Mrs. M. J. Zeno, and Mrs. M. Lacinda Young, Mrs. H. H. Garnet, who represents the suffrage department of the National organization, was present and smoke briefly of that phase of their work. The election of officers which followed resulted: President, Mrs. Alice W. Wiley; vice president, Mesdames Mary S. Gale and Isabella Quarles; treasurer, Mrs. S. A. Males; and secretaries, Mesdames Anna A. Perkins, Lottie Henderson and L. A. Bell. FOR BROOKLYN ORPHANS. New Building to be Erected with Industrial Features. The first fall meeting of the board of managers of the Howard Orphan Asylum Woman's Auxiliary was held in the reception room of the main building of that institution. Dean street and Troy avenue, Urbly afternoon, Mrs. J. W. Whittatch, the president, conducted devotional exercises. Mrs. E. Wagner Finer, treasurer, reported the receipts from January to September, $85.16; disbursements, $282.29; balance, $102.87, and stated that additional receipts during the vacation had increased the net receipts of the orphans' concert to $235.40. The report of Mrs. J. H. Gordon, wife of the superintendent, showed that there had been no deaths in the institution since the auxiliary began to exist, nearly two years ago; that there are now 200 children in the institution, and that the children and care-takers, with the exception of sick children, had enjoyed two outings during the summer, given by Miss Frances Richmond III, Congregational church. The announcement that the board of managers of the institution had decided to build a new building with industrial facilities, on the Troy avenue side of the campus, appalled. It was stated that the, lower part of the new building would be used for industrial features and the upper part for the boy's dormitory. A commarge sale will be held in the W.C. T. U. meeting place, beginning Wednesday and continuing through Friday. THEATRE TROUBLES DOWN IN DIXIE. Afro-Americans Must Accept "Mim Crow" Hospitality if They Want to See a Show - Perhaps Theatres of Our Own Would Pay - Vagaries of the Insistent Newspaper Card Writer. Regular Correspondence of THE ACM ATLANTA, Ga., October 9.—The city editor of a local Afro-American newspaper is on the warpath after theatergoers of the race in this city. He threatens to stand at the doors of the theaters and note the persons who go in and publish their names in his paper. It is all because he says he has discovered that not only do Afro-Americans have to go through back, alleys and doors to get to the peanut gallery, but that frequently, having gained access to the playhouses, they are compelled to sit on the aisle steps and sometimes on the floor. Mention is made of the fact that when the M.G. Fields' Minstrels, that aggregation of burnt-cork artists whose stock in trade is a lame attempt to portray Afro-Americans, exhibited at a local theater, Afro-American women in fine raiment and gaudy feathers were forced to sit bolt upright on the dirty floor because a few white men had taken seats in the place usually reserved for Afro-American patrons. What makes the above named local editor malder is the fact that these women seem to not mind a little thing like that and continue to travel through the dark alleys and the winding back stairs to get to the steps and the floor. He has also discovered, he says, that people who ought to know better and who make a great, show of race pride cheerfully enter the theaters by the alley route and hobnob with denizens of the red light district and other undesirable characters. And, after all, it is a little funny that people will pay their good money to be treated this way. Allowance must be made sometimes for Afro-Americans doing certain things that would on first blush appear to be sanctioning race discrimination, as, for instance, when one has to take a trip on a "Jim Crow" street car or be forced to walk five or six miles, or in other words, when from necessity he is compelled to do so; but for mildly deliberately to dress up in her finest toggery and laces and to crown her head with that picture hat and adorn her feet with snow whist shoes, knowing that she must push her way through a foul smelling back alley and up dingy stairs to find a resting place on tobacco smoked steps, is one of the inexplicable things of the period. The city editor above immed states that he knows many who do that very thing, some of them being teachers, and he befriends by the aid his car and his companion. He will paint him hunts through the columns of his paper. If he does so the matter may have a sensational demeanour as there are many who patronize these places who would not care to see their names in cold type and who might expend as much energy in hunting up the city editor with a large walking case as they are alleged to spend in making the ascent up the dark and winding stairs. Frankly, some doesn't provision should be made for Southern Afro-Americans at the theaters. It is unfortunately true that not only do they have to go through back alleys, doors and stairs in this city to reach the stuff quarters assigned them but the same thing is true in practically every town in the South. Thousands of men and women who desire to see some show or other are forced to foreign the pleas are because of the embarrassing conditions. Many a show that goes to pieces on the road because of a lack of patronage might complete the circuit and disband with money to seize, if any sort of accommodation were made for Afro-Americans in the garages theaters, for the Afro-American is generally a show-citizen. Even with the present unmitigating surroundings the space set apart for him is always over crowded and people have to sit on the steps and floor as they did when that traveling set of humbugs, the A.M. Fields Ministries, were here. A glance at the cards written by various individuals to the daily papers is sometimes a source of interest. In this cardwriting business the Afro-American is in nine cases out of ten, the subject of discussion. Here follow a few extracts from one issue of a daily paper here: "It would be indicative to disfranchise the Negro because it would be best for the race itself. Nearly all persons when they study the question closely advocate the theory that Negro suffrage is a failure. We know that the Negro has little conception how his ballot should be wisely used, we know that it is no trouble to adjourn its vote. I am no means an advocate of his State to envy when a large portion of her voting population can be bought and sold like so many sheep and hogs." This writer lives not far from Augusta, where white men have been bought and sold in elections like cattle for decades. But here is another. "Have you spice in your columns to allow me to speak a few words on the subject of social equality of the Negroes and whites? How about having your name placed on the church full of membership beside a Negro and call him brother? Some may blame the Negro, but that is wrong. I would not blame a Negro if he should take the Presidential chair if he could; it, but I do blame the white people for placing them in such exalted positions and depriving thousands of worthy and competent white people of these positions. Should we be surprised to hear of our President turning over his office chair to one of these Africans, if it should be in his power? No, if he should get tired of his office, probably Mister. Colonel, Dr. Booker would be the honorable recipient of the high office." The newspapers have to print nonsense but listen in this on the other side. "Georgia sacrificed Dr. Shelda a few years ago because he dared pen what he thought on the Negro question. Since that day a North, Caroline professor that was put up to be gibbeted for a favorable opinion of Booker Washington was spared on second thought. Dr. Bradley of Atlanta, thundered from his pulpit on the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of man, and said some true things concerning the treatment of the Negro; and now comes Dr. Launtrum with the courage of his convictions and expresses them by saying that there is no such feeling anywhere against the Negro as we have. There is nothing in the everlasting Negro question that means social equality. There has been more miscellany talk on the subject from our section than the thing warrants. By a process of counterfeit logic, civil rights and a square deal are proved to be social equality. Because we permit foreigners to be naturalized and vote does not mean that we accept them as social equals. No other section of the country has time to think of social equality but our own, and the section that holds up its head the highest in the most horror is the section that practiced the thing the most. We ask that we be let alone in the management of the Negro. Should we not be as consistent and allow the same privilege to other sections? There is no need of our flying into an impotent rage and being grievously relieved because white ladies made social equals of Nassau over in London. We are gradually changing our views on the tariff and a greater change will come when we have more factories; and so we will change all other questions. As we fill up our southland with emigrants from Southern Europe we will wake up one day to find our moorings slipping away from us. We will then not have time to think of bugaboos but will have to grapple with realities. Every issue of a daily paper contains one or more cards on the all-absorbing question or carries an editorial on the same subject. It may stop some of these times, but just now the end is not in sight. THOMAS H. MALONE. BIRTHLE'S RALLY RAISED $500. And the Members Are Still Talking About Tanner's Sermon. On last Sunday began the annual fall rally at Bethel church in West 25th street and during the day about $300 were paid in. It will be continued on the fourth Sunday of this month. Dr. T. Wellington Henderson, the pastor, preached a very touching sermon in the morning which was highly appreciated by the large audience present. His theme was "The Overcoming Christian." At the close of the sermon Drs. Haynes of South Carolina and A. L. Murray of Atlantic City were introduced. The Sabbath school was largely attended and Superintendent Johnson took the first steps towards organizing a normal class in the school. Dr. George Dardis, one of the oldest living preachers in the connection delivered a very able sermon at night to an overflowing congregation. The people in this church are still talking about the remarkable sermon preached by Bishop Tanner on the first Sunday in the month. The good Bishop's visit was very helpful to the church and all will be glad to have him come again soon. The people of Bethel are determined to have new windows put in the church before winter sets in; Mrs Jane Bell and Mr. James F. Thomas have already arranged to have these placed and others are sure to follow. It is the wish of the pastor that each window be a memorial one; and he is asking that they be put in by persons who feel they can do so while they yet live. Next Sunday the annual sermon to the Wayman circle of King's Sons and Daughters will be preached by the pastor.

A peculiar trait of the Negro is with what good grace he will give to the cause of Christianity in the course of a year raise thousands of dollars while the same Christian Negro will not give one cent toward the building of a Negro business. Hundreds of boys and girls are being graduated for what? How many Negro business establishments are there in the two Kansas Cities that can employ ten Negro girls at comfortable wages or the same number of young men? Religion in building enterprises and maintaining them as in building churches with the expenditure of thousands. If the white man did not furnish work for the Negro, he could not get the money for this Christian church. The Negro does not churches and the queen too, but he does not do that at the exclusion of everything else. He always has an eye single to the welfare of his coming generation whom he long be the men and women of the bear. Real Estate Deposit and Investment Co. 1931 BROADWAY.
