PLANTATION MELODIES BASES OF AMERICAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC. On the President's Prophecy to Students of Mansfield Industrial Institute Who Were Received at White House—Told them Also Heat Charity in That Help, due to Help Himself—Industrial Training Prescribed for Museum of All Bases—Bee, Edward Everett Hale and Dr. Hester F. Washington Present and Printed. Washington, February 15.—President Davis probably gave a great impetus to the training and cultivation of the old plantation when he told the students of the Missouri (Va.) Industrial Institute that these songs, along with those of the Juniors, afford opportunities for development of an American School of Music. The students were received at the White House afternoon by the President, accompanied by Rev. Edward Hale, the president of the Senate, and Dr. Hester F. Washington. The President offered which they sang a song which so pleased him that he follows: a great French literary music developed by the Old World, came and to incidentally men- far as he could see there for the development of American music, of American would come one from and one from the vanish- specially those of the all of you to realize the music of music and song of music and song I feel that there is a gradually out of the only that your race has some school of American to come through you the President praised the efforts of the staffing afforded by the Welfare Department in classifying the importance of training for both white and African people, the said. The President has made an effort to greet and introduce our fellow citizens to being trained in the White House than a body like the Army, stand for the fundamental duty of the State, I am sure that we will must be sharply interested in the kind of deposition of which I am able to say, I am sure that we will be very interested in the type of experience, but as typical. There are a great many very excellent charities in the country. But some of them forget in time that the only duty of the State is not a charity at all, but how to help himself. We are in which any section of our matter what color, can be benefited is by teaching them own weight, to do their own work, to be their duty, to the State we felt about the schools of type just, for instance, as I was told the reasons they are as they can serve as an example, should try to develop just as the kind we can, for the kind we cannot, such as the white man needs just as much man to learn that for the education that fits his to which he ought to be added to remain as the basis. good that comes with any wife is increased tenfold when a woman founded Takese, by a woman woman to help the married girls of today to married women of the future, to welcome you here is a very fitting thing to be good American de- Rice, Edward Everett Born interested by Dr. E.

Dr. Bovie Tells Them Why They Can't Clear Up the Twistballs. Dr. Charles B. Morris, pastor of the Abrymia Baptist church at 344 West 40th street, told the police a few reasons why they don't agree in cleaning up the Tenderloin when several members of his stock were arrested Sunday morning in the West 50th court for holding a revival meeting without license on Saturday night in West 37th street between 84th and 98th avenues. After an enthusiastic revival meeting at Abrianna assistant pastor William J. Brown, and member mallied out against two dancers all lined up running at full blast in the neighborhood, the police regenerate to come into the fold. The police heard the noise which ensued and proceeded to run in Hev. Brown and three of them led to Hev. Morrlis left his sick bed, to find ball for them and was on hand Sunday morning in the court to defend them. In reply to the charge that the missionaries were breaking the law, Rev. Morris reported that the dance halls were still run by a clock Sunday morning when they should have closed at midnight. The police captain replied that couldn't get any evidence against the dance. "I'll tell you why you can't get evidence against them," replied Dr. Morris. This morning, at 2 o'clock in front of one of the band members with music and dancing, I saw a politeLEANER, consuming liquid refreshments that were being pased out to him through the door." Magistrate Cornell discharged the missionaries. HEPLIN FOR "JIM CROW" PULLMANS. Albums Anarchist Trices to Win Still More Infamy. WASHINGTON, February 19.—Congressman Hulin of Alabama, who achieved a special victory this week, one she had placed dynamically under Dr. Washington while they dined to her and Dr. Washington with their security with a bill providing for "Jim Crow" safety in the South. The bill will of course fail. "CLAN&MAN" ENDS BEFORE MARCH 1. "The Redskins" Will Suppliment It at Liberty Theatre on That Date. Two weeks ago, when we 'phones to the Liberty theatre, we were silently informed that "The Chassman" New York can would end on February 17. Perhaps Chassman has put up the money to tide the show over another two weeks, for it is still running. However, its days are numbered, for play, the Redskins, is billiard to open at Liberty on March 1. "The Chassman" will have lasted little more than seven weeks. PHIPPS, TENEMENT IN A YEAR. In the new model tenement house for Miro-American families which the Phipps Houses Corporation is building on Gkd and 64th streets, near West End avenue, there is to be a settlement for Miro-American, Dr. Elgin R. L, Gould told me. On plans at the February conference on the Charity Organization society yesterday in the United Charities building, and what he didn't know, Miss Walton, of the kindergarten and Industrial association, who was in the audience, told afterwards. "The house, which will accommodate eighty families or more, will be finished in about two years. In it space is to be allowed for the settlement in a kindergarten room, cooking school, roof garden, etc. The whole building will be under the charge of women. The settlement will have our towns, and as such will pay rent, but in may make a contribution to the work." "The Walton Kindergarten and Industrial association is now conducting settlement work at the Colored Baptist church in Walton, Miss. Walton said that when it moves into the plaza for Mrs. Mary White Ovington, of Brooklyn, will be the head worker, with one assistant at first, who together will conduct mothers' clubs, industrial and amusement clubs, etc. "Miss Holle Adams has invited our club of largest in the city to attend Wednesday matines of the Peter Pan," added Miss Walton. Dr. Gould denied that Afro-American skipping their rent any more than white pennants. "The rent is $1,500 per total rental of $1,500 was only $1655," he said. "Colored tenants are as cleanly and careful as white, the ratio for repairs in one colored model tenement in this city being not a whiter larger than in the white." "American are charged from 10 to 30 per cent more rent than whites. Dr. Gould said: "I know a house where the white families who were paying $15.50 a month, were turned out all colored tenants brought in, who were charged $25 for exactly the same accommodations." MANHATTAN V. M. C. A. LECTURE. Counsellor J. D. Wetmore gave a Brilliant Discourse on Honesty and Responsibility- Discourse on Honesty and Responsibility. With every available space in the lecture room of the auditorium and on stage, I accep- ted the opportunity to engage with many seated or standing within hearing distance on the reception room, Counselor J. D. Wetmore, the brave, brainy young man, who was the first to deliver a battering ovation last Sunday afternoon. It was just such a crowd as had greeted Rev. Charles S. Morris, D. D., pastor of Brynsham Presbyterian Church, the great preacher of "Lincoln and the Negro." Simiur enthusiasm was displayed, but it was called out by any different emotions. Dr. Morris's crowd was full of excitement. Lincoln exhibited, and to show their love for his memory. Their expectations were abundantly rewarded by the scholarly and elegant address of the brilliant Morris, who had a gift of less few equals and absolutely no superiors. The crowd that came on Sunday after noon last came to see and hear the young lawyer of rapidly growing fame, who had been called to testify before the judge and who wholly unified service which he has rendered for the amelioration of the ills which his people of Jacksonville and of Florida have suffered, and which he frequently fix upon them. For when the Florida judge had omitted the "Jim Crow" street can law operative upon the people of all cities of the State, Mr. Crow courts and won his suit. He was also successful when the case was carried before the Supreme Court. Mr. Wetmore spoke on "Homesty and Indian Responsibility," and he like some white people, were not hooted in small things. Many are given to acts of petty larceny, "In Jacksonville" said he, "I can buy anything from a pair of suspenders on a store, a pair of suspenders on a store. Those things ought not to be." He emphasized the well known fact that the world, too, was inclined to judge the whole race by the acts of individuals. The apprehension of close of his address was loud and firm. Mr. James W. Johnson, of the company of Cole and Johnson, a friend and secretary T. J. Bell, was present and highly entertained and amused the audience with his humorous and original jokes. Dr. Roberta, Dr. Moan, Counsellor and others were also pre- and spoke. THE CAPITAL RECAPTURED. Senators, Representatives and Judges Unable to Get Attendance at First Congregational Church at Meeting in Interest of Mammanah Industrial School—Chief Justice Brewer Freedman and Mr. Villard Spike—Dr. Washington's Speech—Graceful Tribute to Miss Jenna Dellmoff. Special Correspondence of The ACK. WASHINGTON, February 18.—When Dr. Booker T. Washington was here nearly two years ago two thousand people packed the Metropolitan church to hear him speak, and hundreds were infilled from the door, unable to get even standing room at any price. And this was a pay off too. And time does not seem to lessen the people's interest in this remarkable man no matter their desire to hear what he has to say. this was demonstrated last Wednesday night at the First Congregational church, where Dr. Washington was advertised to speak in behalf of the Mammanah Industrial school. However, the residents of the District of Columbia were treated to a great meeting in the control of the Minnesota school, Dr. Washington's speech may be simply characterized as "a good effort" to it seemed to run the whole gamut of a face problem, touching every phase of it so effectively that every point evoked treatment applause. Extents of it are given below. There were other features of the meeting, that added greatly to its interest. Justice Answer of the United States Supreme Court, Attorney General by Dr. Edward Evicke Ettle and Mr. Oswald Garrison Villard, the editor of The New York Evening Post and president of the board of trustees of the Mansuess school, all of whom were hospitable and encouraging, not only of the meeting, but of the enterprise for which the meeting was especially called, but also of the condition of the Mero-American in general. A large number of trustees of the Mansuess school, these young sons, have been received at the White House by the President earlier in the day. An account of the visit is given elsewhere. A large number of trustees of the Mansuess school is Miss Jennie Dean, and it was a most appropriate and fitting thing for Mr. Villard to do when he asked Miss Dean to come to the front of the platform and the audience. He was invited to her by friends of the school. It was an enjoyable the scene that was created by his beautiful and gracious act. Wild applause greeted this remarkable woman as she approached the stage, and the applause was removed again and the audience was engaged. Mr. Dale and Mr. Villard called her virtues and gave her a place among the great women of our country. Mr. Washington's speech in an inexpensive report to Mr. Washington's office is an excellent report to Mr. Washington's office. This following event, however, will appropriate its full effect upon its audience. This following event, however, will appropriate its full effect upon its audience. "It is a long way from the battle to the establishment of a Negro institution to the establishment of a Negro institution that first happened, and yet the distance has that far-reaching and are assembled here to right to do what we can to promote further the usefulness of that institution. There are some very vital institutions in this school. Washington should be deeply interested in this school. It is near this city and is doing good practical work. It has the advantage of being located in the midst of agricultural lands, and it has been said on other occasions, that any influence that will take the youths of our race from the shuns and crowded abodes of our danger to live in the midst of wholesome surroundings in an agricultural atmosphere will prove a benediction. This is what the Massachusetts school is aiming to and will in the future be doing. In too many cases do it on a larger scale. In too many cases the negro is at his worst in the crowded life of a large city, and in most cases he owes to the prejudices of his priests where he owns and cultivates the soil." "This city sets the biggest Negro population of any municipality in the Union and has an imperative duty to help in lifelong the negro to the most useful citizenship." "Investigation shows that Tuskegee students command an average wage that is three times as much value upon the services three times as much value upon the services of an educated one." "The South is passing through a revolution in its industrial and economic development, and more and more I am convinced that the South is going through a population, is and can be made a factor in this onward march. The demand for graduates comes from among one, own teachers in the class room, teachers of business, teachers of leadership and guidance in many other directions. Almost as pressing is the demand constantly coming from the best white people in the South for the services of our teachers in the Garris, dairies and other industries. "The eight millions of Southern Negroes, by contact with the whites, have had their minds awakened and they want land, houses, churches, books and paper; they want their lives, their vital. There is so much, work to do and the Negro labor is not inefficient. The increased industries of the South, rebuilding its industrial effort, is not performed by immigrants. It is the security of labor that confronts the people, not the inefficiency of labor. "Already, through the efforts of educated Negroes who have come from some of the first Friars, William force and a score of others, the Negro has blotted out, in forty-one years, 56 per cent that more than 70 per cent of the men are still in ignorance. In property bothies in Georgia alone have been the largest in city and city property, the Negro party owns eight million of dollars worth of property. In the Nation's business and party property, and it is in the nation's worth of property, and it is in the nation's worth of many colored people inhabit the cities that in keeping the amount, more than taxes according to the census of 1890, it was 71 per cent of the white Americans owning the homes they occupied and that 18 per cent of the homes which they occupied, and that 40 per cent of these Negro homes were free from taxes. "I wish more of our white fellow-citizens might inspect the life that the people lead in their homes, in their churches, their schools, in their workplaces and places of employment. Wherever possible able to reach the people through education they have improved morally by rapid pace, and crime has decreased. Other making progress in the single man or woman who holds a doctor's degree, the Hampton Institute in Virginia or the Tufts Institute in Alabama in the walls of the penitentiary. During the existence of the prison system and most colleges and industrial schools in the both, only three graduates are reported as having been sent to State's prison." Mr. Washington declared that, what is needed just now is a revival of the old American doctrine of fair play for all God's creatures, regardless of race. "One point," he concluded, "we might consider as settled—we are through experimentation—to be where the ten millions of black people have reached the unalterable determination that we are going to remain in your midst of the greater part of us are going to remain for Southern States. In this connection I do not hesitate to say that from my point of view, the body of our people find a more encouraging opportunity in the South than elsewhere. "While not forgetting or overlooking the fact that any set of people without the ballot are in tremendous disdain of government are at tremendous disadvantage, we should life if we go on quietly, persistently encouraging the people to secure property, to agriculture, to compilation for the most part in agriculture, civilization, in economic and industrial efficiency, while at the same time in every unity and straightforward way we cultivate friendly relations with our white neighbors, believe that success will crown our efforts. The Negro in many ways has proven his work most lovingly to this country. What he now makes of us, he firmly relates as Manassas he shall be given the chance to render high and intelligent service to our country in the future. I have said that such an opportunity will be given him. Mr. Villard, the grandson of William Lloyd Garrison, known, too, because of his wisdom, spoke particularly of the needs of the people of North Carolina at Western university which an English traveler had been invited to visit. The president and his wife and the entire faculty of the university was only one building in sight, but the campus was stretching away magnificently with 610 acres. There was no lack of hope, how acres. There was no lack of hope, how president. Manassas is not so badly off as the president. It has, he said, its needs and its hopes. "In the breast of Jennie Dean," he said, "has been planted that desire to serve others has been made more than any other characteristic she possesses. The first $120 at service, and to-day the institution she projected is valued at more than $80,000." She said the speaker, "the school the center of law colleges, manly ministry within a radius of many, many, just as has been so successfully done at Calhoun, with preschools, and other schools further south. He has been out by means of our example, by means of farmers' gatherings and conferences of heads of the household, we hope to become an all-inclusive center of law uplifting of the colored race within the five cities. We wish to make it a missionary station from which we shall send forth carpenters, of the country schools, train carpenters, of the law officers, show makers and skilled farmers." REVOLT KINDLING IN SOUTH AFRICA Germann Captain and Troops Massacred by Nutrient Norfolk Trouble A despatch from Cairo Town, Egypt, reports that the Wawoni tribe, Nigeria, extends the eastern confines of Lagos territory, presides at the northeast end of Lake Nyassai, and has been severe fighting with the German troops in northern Wieso was killed and a detachment of native troops possessed. The troops are capturing much ammunition. Major dohannes, with 100 men, is minking a sweepstake from the east. In a despatch I2 the correspondent emphasizes the gravity of the situation. He indicates that unless Germany immobiliously ends out a strong force the northern Nyassai will be ablaze. VIRGINIA "JIM CROW" LAW Assembly Orders Separate Street Care All Over the State. RICHMOND, February 19- The State Assembly has issued a general "Jim Crow" stricty which affects all Virginia. This is considered a mean way of showing stricteration. For the most successful which the Old Dominion Afro-American has won in business and education at the wealth which he has added to the State, the African-American companies will have low Afro-American profits. REUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE OF GEORGIA FORMED AT MACON. Beting Called by Dr. W. J. W. White Exported to Have Good Results—Bishop Turner and Dr. DuBois Among, the Longue-Pour Four Hundred Present, including Many Predecessors—Addresc to Country Rearmaring Complaints— Turner Descounted American Flag and Nation—Max Manpointed by Hake Smith's Agent. Regular Correspondence of THE AGR. ATLANTA, February 17.—The rapidity with which the Southern Afro-American has lost ground has been truly remarkable. So far reaching have been the results of the efforts to "keep the black man in his place" that when they are seriously considered they make us wonder what next will happen. It has been for the past a gradual slide with scarcely a hold up. There are those of us living who remember when such things as "Jim Crow" cars were unheard of, and when the common carriers made no distinction between the passengers. Time was when the right to carry people the black man and his vote were generally counted. It was not so long ago that we were permitted to organize military com- panies. It was when the military came 3. It is within the memory of many of us to whom fell the lot to teach in the schools that the salaries were about double then but the crushing hand of prejudice has wounded many of most of them to our disadvantage. It was with the avowed purpose of seeing if something could not be done to remedy the conditions we suffer that Rev. W. J. White of Ackermann's Baptist, called a conference of race people to meet in Macon on last Tuesday. The case specified that we are being driven to the conclusion that there are many instances of oppression. It was a thrilling fulfillment of except, that it enumerated one thing as an injustice to us which is no such thing. Reference made to the white primary of with more than one person, probably four hundred persons met in the Conference, and they were from all walks of life, the preacher, however, being to the white leader, there were many sturdy former men and a few professional politicians. The meeting was characterized by an enthusiasm which began when the venerable leader was endued, and ended only when the doxology was said. After the body got down to business reports were read from committees on "Civil Rights," by Mr. J. Max Barber; "City Law," by Mr. J. Max Barber; "Farmer and Franchise," by Hon. J. W. Layman; committee was then appointed to draw up an address to the country. This committee was the chairman Bishop H. M. Turner and Dr. W. Layman. Through the columns of the *Georgia Baptist Dr. DuBois* had several works prior to the meeting outlined what he believed ought to be done on, and the committee followed the line of the committee's report. The plaint was made of "the unfair decision of the public school funds," the "injustice of the white democratic primary," the "Jim the system," the "Jury system which prevents the system," the "Jury system which when they are involved," the "municipal and recorder's courts," and the "proposed disfranchisement and the chain gang system." When to with closed ammunition was listened to with closed ammunition was there were constant onslaughts of applause. Among the prominent men who were present were: Bishop H. M. Turner, Hon. J. W. Murray, John Hope, Dr. W. G. Johnson, Prof. George O. Emery, Mr. G. M. Howell, Rev. A. D. Williams, Dr. A. R. Murden and many others of this State, together with Bishop R. S. Williams, Lane and Cottrell of other States. After the reading of the address a posthumous memorial was erected for Wright calling on the Republican party to put out tickets in all elections from Governor down. It was championed by Rev. J. G. Robinson who believed this would be one means of helping to meet annually before and be known as theEqual Right- League of Georgia. The address is to be put in a pamphlet form for distribution. By far the most interesting event comes from the meeting was the impassioned speech of the woman who raised his hands and swore an oath. I used to love what I thought was the great gatsby and, along with costumes about the stars and the setting, this country today the American flag is a dirty and contemptible rag. Not a star in the colored man claim, for it is no longer a longer name. I have heard of both white and black men perpetrating rapes upon innocent and angelic women, but no Nora in this story. I have heard of the horrible crimes of rape in fifteen years. I know that bloody ended, murderous nays say so, but what happened to the woman who said so? Yet there are millions of men and woman who pretend to be moral, and claim to be sensible in this country who go to get information relative to the conduct. A glaring blunder was committed by the conference, and it is not the first time it has been committed by people who ought to be held accountable for a little time to the subject. It was the stamping of the white Democratic primary as an injustice to the Afro-American. The primary political carry can hold a primary or nominate a candidate which the qualifications of the voters may be determined by the organizations of that party. The Democrats hold such primaries at which black men who are so minded occasionally vote, and the Republicans have occasionally voted. The Democrats sometimes declare that in some none but white men can vote, excluding the few Afro-Americans who want to be Democrats. The Republicans are at perfect librarians or for themselves whenever and wherever they vote. The black man is the Republican in Georgia. The conference was, unconsciously of courses, the victim of a clever loot. Toward a most comprehensive declaration, when what seemed a most comprehensive declaration, and desires had been read and accepted by the delegates, and when nothing seemed to be left unaided that would possibly result in a short resolution was offered declaring that the sense of the body that the Republican party should thereafter put out tickets from Goya to the first it met with little enthusement the declaration to dearie that politics be eliminated and to ceeding up to this point. Then it was that a sense of duty lung power took the floor and old men were cross-routes "north" to march to the polls and be eloquence was burning, and the audience was warming up to his sentiments with haste. It was accompanied with a cheer, and then the clerical-looking delegate sank back into his seat and smiled. It will no doubt be a surprise to the many good and race-loving men and women at Macon to be told that this particular delegate, Mr. Atlanta Johnson, a press by a newspaper here, The Atlanta Journal, a most bitter sheet toward Afro-Americans and the official organ of Hoke Smith. That the delegate is preparing a conference in a report evidently furnishing evidence said of his speech that it "created the highest enthusiasm," and that the speaker "was to the no-no." It was all because the delegate is preparing a desire that the "Afro-Americans should be strong against" it. It is from this sort of talk Hoke Smith is telling the bourbon shop that the man is preparing to dominate if he is to be heard. He is a cleverly studied ruse to spring on an unsuspecting audience, and affords the Hoke Smith argument in their fight against Hosey Howe, the man who certainly doubt that this delegate was sent on a mission as he exhibited his transportation and a letter from one of the officials of the paper to a person whose life in Macon, thinking of course, that no mention would be made of it. But in spite of blunders and treachery, the promoters of the conference, express the hope that in the ultimate good of the movement. They believe that one of the best means of drawing attention to our condition and of eliciting sympathy. The men at the head of the movement, no doubt be commanded for discipline and for opinion was the opportunity thing to do. The division was made for annual sessions of the conference and a permanent organization was established, the presence of several bishops of other States was the necessary condition to the delegates. These bishops were present, however, because of the fact that the conference is a conference a meeting of the bench of Bishops of M.E. will be given to the press later on but its salient features have been given above. "ABYSSINIA." Williams and Walker Make a Hit With a New Comedy. Williams and Walker made their most ambitious effort last Tuesday evening at the Majestic theatre, in a musical comedy called "Amyssinian." The piece is far in advance of their last play, "In Dahoney," in costumes and seduction, while the work of the singers, especially in the chorus, eclipses all their former shows. A large audience groaned "Amyssinian" outhurtistically and all the performers approved of the polished production. As the audience now, however, the means of both the piece and the performances justified, the enthusiasm was awakened during the latter part of the show. The piece is the combined effort of J. A. Shipp, Alex Rogers and Will Marion Cook. Alex Rogers played by Earle C. Jones "Amyssinian" in music and high grade comedy. Adby Wobble shaped up of rough spots, but on the whole it is a most creditable production, fitted with music and high grade comedy. Adby Wobble shapes up some of the play. The story deals mainly with the adventures of colored tourists from Kansas who reach Amyssinian to jet away to New York. Will Walker and Rustus Johnson of Chicago, W. Walker leads the travelers. Rustus's main object is to spend the money won in the adventure with Amyssinian as an assistant in the play. MR. FORTUNE ON LINCOLN. Great Emancipation's Concurrent But Prudent Motility to Slavery—His Parentage and Untoward Early Life—His Influence on a Lawyer Upon Judgment and Jurisdiction—Enter Political Life—Attacked Slavery in Illinois Legislature—In Congress Abolished in District of Columbia—Proclamation of Emancipation. MONTCLAIR, N. J., February 17., Mr. T. Thomas Fortune, editor of THE New York Ack, lectured here last night on "The Great Emancipation" at a Lincoln reception held under the auspices of the Literary Union. Of this organization W. E. R. Grigney and Miss Catherine Smith secretary. The meeting was held in the Union Baptist church, of which Rev. J. G. Love is pastor, and was largely attended. Mr. Wood of Jersey City made some interesting remarks. A vocal solo was rendered by Miss Burke and an instrumental solo by Mr. Purviana. Mr. Fortune's address follows: "Ninety-seven years ago a man was born who was to know sorrow and be acquainted with grief. Few men in modern or ancient times were born in lowlier surroundings or in more unpromising conditions than Ahram station or exercised a larger master some or more masterful influence upon a great people. Indeed, he was a master in times and times and helped to shape that history which has been shaped since the foundation of the Government. "Abraham Lincoln was born in Hardin county, Ky., on February 12, 1809. His ancestors were among the early settlers of Rockingham county, Virginia, whither they had gone from Buck- county, Pa. His ABRAHAM LINCOLN, grandparents moved to Kentucky in 1751, his Father, Thomas Lincoln, was born in Virginia. Some historians have labored to trace Mr. Lincoln's ancestry to a noble pedi- cate in England. However this may be, the reason for his numerous honors, and horbory, in the annals of the year, now know most forceful nation since Greece gave lett- ers and Rome gave law to the world. In 1816 Lincoln married Nance Hanka. In 1816 Benton knew now as Spencer县 county, Ind., and set forth the present village of Gouentry, Ms. Lincoln died at that place in October, 1818, and Howard Jr. Lincoln married Widow John Hanka in October with whom Abraham maintained amicable and kindly relations. At this time Abraham besieged himself about the farm, unusually large for his age. Here he received a letter from the governor, that was all that he ever received. The magnificent educational advantages now within reach of nearly every boy in the State have annually brought the reach of an entire school to every child. The ex- treme rich who could afford to give their children the most beautiful of a education. The poorest black boy in the State has better opportunities to seek such education. He gave a tracer by the stroke of his pen their freedom and opportunity. If he possessed books it is true that he thoroughly massaged them, and that he thoroughly underly studied and learned. He will have a larger return and more substantial benefit than the possession of a library that is as that described in Abraham dion as that described in William which is only regarded and treated procession. As his library was limited, he kept a book into which he religiously copied Nothing than this system will more than mind of the reader the contents of a book. "It almost bewilders us to think of Abraham Lincoln managing a ferry across the Ohio River, in 1852, at 81 a month. Indeed, his life and his pathways to eminence are only visible in the ferry City, who, like Lincoln, was born of the people, lived for the people and gave his unhood for the people. At this time Mr. Lincoln was the most famous story teller in the country, as he came afterwards to be of the elite, and his stories always had a point. They were Asopian in that directness and in that philosophy which are the quinence of his physical strength. He was also noted for his aunt's 6 feet 4 inches in height. First Hatred of Slavs | OS.

The frequency of intense sessions in the House of Community summer, among the absorbing interest of the questions considered, affected the great keen desire of foreigners in London to gain admission to a gallery of this chance in the ministry of England I doubt that a brief statement of a young person at the social position at the very crisis of the house, and a few impressions jolted down the time would not be wholly As we emerged from the briefing approach to the member's gallery of the admission, our thoughts were given for an encounter to the smaller, lofter entrance by much concentration of vision, an array of imagination, we discovered these similar conditions in our American woman, by continually satisfying our goutiness, modesty and motherhood, determining those essential qualities of women's general esteem in England.

The giants was truly a magnificent leapace. It mattered not how often the great baskettle broadword of Bannerman awakened in his mind, but often threatening to crush him, always the nimble, gallion Bailour had an opportunity to hit the new slimest blade, until last, by his powerful aerial attack, a hit, "a very palpable hit" on his dexterous adversary. Everyone in the House masterly defended the presence of this masterly defender. Late in the evening I came away from the gallery feeling that I had witnessed a scene that in a measure approached those contents of other days of which I had heard of the story.

FIRST SIGHT OF A WHITE FACE. German Scientist Made Friends of Dwarf Negrius With Tempting Gifts. *German Scientist Made Friends of Dwarf Negrius With Tempting Gifts.* A few thousands of the human race have kept themselves so aloof that they still live in complete isolation, dreading strangers more than they do beasts of prey. One tribe of the dwarf Negroes in the Malay Peninsula, whose stamping ground is the mountains of northern Malacca and southern Siam, is numbered among those slay and retiring peoples. The people ask only what they are afraid. They live apart because they are afraid. A German batsman named Albert Gunner hauler while on a collecting tong a few hours, and he took a folk as he might for game, excepting that he had no murderous purpose and merely wished to study them. He knew that the man upon them unnawes. They would run of if they had a half chance; so the German and his two or three native servants stole an unnawed man along the paths leashing through jungle and underbrush, expecting, if they aroused suspicion, to meet a party out hunting or underbrush, so their its inmates could take to the woods. It was rather tedious work, but patience was at length rewarded. As Gridner renewed his search one morning he heaped a handful of potatoes on his men sprang to one side past as a number of the little men came along. They had been collecting rattan and had loads of it on their backs. They saw the white potatoes in the loads in the path and sprang into the bush. The German and his man know everywhat what they were to do such a thing. They were to be a soldier, a warrior, a weapon was to be a weapon. One of the men who could speak a little of the native dialect aired his accomplishment in the great war and the white man was for good friend and the man was for good friend what wonderful presents he had brought for his friends. The white man and his friend were treated with bright cutouts, strings of beads, many colored necklaces, tobacco and other tempting articles whose merits were evoked by the spokesman with all the ability. They knew the natives were behind the bushes looking at the tempting sight and the vicious set down, will hurl them into the violent presents. Finally, an old man, the leader of the party, stink his head out of the bushes and hold it up. It was a sign of green vignetting and white man nodded to him. The ice was broken. The Nerigbi approached the Entrophe and the guests were distributed and the visitors became the guests of the little mountainers. They were passed on from one group to another till Gumbladder considerable time had passed his stature. One of the most scientific journals in Germany has thought it worth while to write about these, people. There they have lived for many generations almost within sight of the skies, sleeping in the night, and down the main Street, the gateways between the West and the East. They have been in the world for so long that they are known, but a persistence man, full of tact and kindness, finally won their respect and they told him all, they told them. Geniuses found them very human. They their family life is more developed than any other family in the world, family affection is very noticeable among them. They are also forging a link that connects them to the world. They longer produce life in the good old days, for something else and marriages have passed from tribe to tribe it has grown. They have become an added to the Swedish nation. WHITE ROSE ANNUAL REPORT. Extraordinary Work Performed With Small Funds—$115.150 Last Year. The White Rose Industrial corporation, of which Mrs. Victoria 12 Matthews is the head, has just issued its annual budget for the year 1955, is amassing how much this goal this month, considering its meager resources, has been able to account for. The total receipts for the year, in inclping a balance from 1904 of $1,958.98, aggregated $1,461.01. Volunteers contributions to the Home amounted to $277.777. The total expenditure for the year was $1,115.16, leave $146.11 for 1904. The self-serving spirit of the managers of the Home is shown in the princely salary divided among them. Thanksgiving spending cost about $100 apiece, but this was a little more than covered by special donations for these functions. One of the donations given to needy women and children. During the year two new departmental have been hired. One of these, the Pensy President Fund, purposes to encourage theft in old deprived homes, and the other, who have banked, by penny, over $100. The other new department is the District Nursing, which is developing The Travelers' Aid department which safeguards newly arrived girls from the hearty competition has been established between the Travelers' Aid workers under the supervision of Miss M. Jones and Miss B. Boyd, who is stationed at the Old Dominion pier. The association has also stationed an Assistant Miss H. A. Proctor, who has distinctly facilitated matters for the agent at this end. Miss Boyd has met at the steamship during the year accommodated 156 girls, dispensed 814 meals and helped 118 girls to secure positions. Each girl received an enrollment of 170, have been held. These meetings comprised one Sunday class, one cooking class, one language class, and three sweeping classes. For adults five weekly meetings with an enrollment of 156, have been held. One mother meeting, one father meeting, one manifold class and one social club meeting. Twenty-two public meetings and entertaining meetings with the association were held. Garments to the number of 620 were distributed, besides 18 pairs of shoes, 655 neighborhood visits were made. Garments are certified by a certified public accountant. Benefit of Several Years of Jasperst Strickle, Breaking… At Its Mount Death for Afro-American to Enter. Stock Yards District — Amusement of Employees When Black Men First Volunteered to Break in Strike… Their Gradual Rescue After Strikes. Were Over—Now Over 2,000 Have Regular Job—Leonus to North. Special Correspondence of Ting Ack. Chicago, February 10.—What is known as the stock yards district of Chicago covers an area of several square miles in the southeastern part of the city. In this district there is a population running up into the hundreds of thousands. And what a conglomerate population. From the isles of the sea, from every country of Europe, Asia and Ameri- cess, speaking languages scarcely translatable into the English tongue, men and women have migrated to that part of the city, hogs, stags, and sheep are hourly coined to gold and silver. If you should visit Chicago and by chance be dropped down into the stock yards district, you would not need to ask where you were, for the unmistakable evidences that meet the eye as well as the olfactory nerves, would specially inform you that you had reached Porkopolis. Here is a great metropolis within a metropolitan district, parks, bourbons, theaters, museums, and business houses are enriched within this colossal slaughter house district. Men and women and children on the inside are shingling, calling, parking, cunning, inspecting and disguising themselves, and impossibly kind in every part of the globe, the great work of assimilating and welding together heterogeneous population is going on on the As might be expected the social problem of the lack of interest in their manifestations, Strikes backouts and boycots have all had their day of blood, blues, defeats and triumphs. The history of the Strikes has been interesting and of really few teaching importance. There was a time when the Strikes himself within distance of the stock market. There was a dead line drawn himself within distance of the stock market. Those who venerated across the line found Irish bricks. Yankee revellers and Swedish rocks awaiting them. It was a rare occasion of the early encounters of the daughter house that no Afro-American must enter and much less work in this forbidden territory. While many Afro-Americans have been actually stoned and in this death/death row affairies. There seemed to be from the outset a sort of devilish determination to be exclusively white territory. During the very first stroke which occurred in the first affairies, many of them offered their services to the pocket. Knowing how intense the feeling was against Afro-Americans, the employees were amazed at their during in the face of directional brave demonstration the first black applicants brave demonstration the first black applicants intimacy of the employees. They were at once given work, and their work proved so efficient that the strike was soon called off against Afro-Americans who were retained at that time but the law rights against Afro-Americans labor was perished. This was considerably offended. This was more than five years ago. From that to the present the Afro-Americans have slowly grown in their opportunities for In every strike that has taken place in the United States in the past year, an important and painful part. He has made it possible for these primarily pickers to work with every contract that has been waived or terminated in the past year, on these labor distributions, has not been due to any hostility to labor unions, not either a retaliation because of the strike or a hostility because of the American from sourcing honest employment on the brand field of American labor in the stock market was at first the most ordinary of the strike days. Each year, however, the result of every recurring strike, the African American in employment has been adjusted to the conditions of the labor market as well as Negro laborers, have been recognition and compensation in keeping with their needs. Some of the black grads who have been laid off in the past year, are now being done by college and training and sent for the better jobs. "The old time feeling of hostility against Afro-American employees has well minkered. We were not so enraged. We played at the stock yards. Colored men and women are now admitted and welcomed into the unions. In fact, the white men and women are now in their opposition to the employment of Afro-Americans in any capacity, now urge them to come into the Unions and get their jobs. In the last stock yards strike the colored men belonging to the union were among those who Gought the hardest against the unions." The intermittent of the victory won in the present undermined right to work in the hotel industry and understand. But for this new opening, we must hold our people would be in a very pliable position in the hotels and restaurants as waiters, in the big office buildings as juniors and in other positions now occupied by them. As it is now, a colored man can always obtain work at the stock yards when everything else is gone. Afro-American women can not any considerable employment outside of domestic services. I do not know of any woman employed in female labor where our women are permitted to wifk. The kind of work they do requires paid for this work range from $1 to $8 per week. In some instances where they do please work, there an opportunity for the woman to be a great deal to women who as ble place of employment, and may not have been able to acquire it. The exact number of Aft-America can men and women employed in the various packing and house yards. The yard is usually estimated in three hundred. To see the procession in early morning hastening to trains and cars to the store, they might really just appear that they represent a taller number than the above given. SOUTH INDUSTRIAL AWAKENING. Appreciation of Farm Vulture Due to Presence Cotton Cloison Cream. Made with natural materials. From the time we need, it is true that the industrial development of the South is going forward with amazing rapidity, it is nevertheless the virtue of the extent of the agricultural interests of the South agriculture is yet the foundation of the business of that sector, change from poverty to wealth, the finance and the land without a selling value to land in demand at an advance of 50 to 150 per cent, on the nominal price of one or two years ago, the most recent development in South advancement of the last quarter of a century. It is far reaching in many ways. It means that with little but year or two experience the Southern farmer has at least $1,000,000,000 in value, probably at least $1,000,000,000. But more than that, he has gained new courage, new backbone; that he has fought to a finish the crop; that he has fought to a finish the battle as to whether the producer of the spooler is to control the price of his cotton from the handling of cotton from the field to the factory, whether the factory be in this town or upon an entirely new stage in its history. It also means that land will be more thorny, and he will be a farmer, a more man, a manufacturer, is always better able to work to good advantage than the one who is fighting for years the total value of the cotton crop, including seed, has been $1,000,000,000. In years, showing a gain in the last six years over the preceding six of more than $1,400,000,000, a great increase in cotton alone, that the Southern farmer is in better shape. More and more has the diversification of agriculture grown and truck raling, farming and family, with the meathouse at home rather than the West, been developed throughout the South. A study of the bankers' letters develops many facts of very great interest. Many of them involve the value of farm land running from 30 to 100 per cent, within the last two years, very generally. The average report would indicate an increase of considerably over 40 per cent, in the last twelve months. One correspondent in South Carolina says: "In many institutes, much as they would have brought four or two years ago." Another correspondent in there are seven years, with deposits amounting $1,000,000, most of it belonging to farmers, whereas ten years ago they were $250,000. Another in the same State, reports sales of farms in his section at a heavy adjacency, where farm increased in selling price from $1,600 to $4,700, and another from $7,200 two per cent, and another from $7,500 two per cent, and another as an indicator of the general conditions. In Alabama, land which sold five years ago in Slavery to 31st North army, is now reported to have grown in part of the State there has been, it is reported, an increase in the last two years of growth. Throughout the Central South, it is very generally said this increase is due mainly to the increasing prosperity of the farmers, and to some parts the increase is also part of the growth in cotton, cotton lands selling to a considerable extent on the basis of the price of cotton, some parts the increase is also part of the growth in cotton, cotton lands selling to as yet been a comparatively small factor except in Arkansas, Texas and others of the South. In the tobacco districts of Tennessee, where the growers have made with equal success the same character of fight for better prices, the farmers have reported a realization on the part of the farmers that when banded together they hold a lion hunt against all possible comeback product, and that with the prices of their courage and strength. Throughout Virginia there has been a very considerable advance in the growth of cotton, increased diversification and the raising of livestock, and in part to the purchase of many farm properties by people from other The validation by the people of the entire South, bankers, merchants and farmers, of the power of cooperation in the proper management of the crops, the staples, cotton and tobacco, has brought about a community of interest which is to be exerted a very great influence on the South and of that portion of the business interests of the South and of that portion of the business world which is in any way upon the general prosperity of the South.

Special Correspondence of Tue. Jan. TURKHEM INSTITUTE, Ala., July 17.—Of all methods of effort for raising the condition of the submerged classes of our population, none is better than what now passes current under the heading "Neighborhood Work." Human nature needs so many props. Men and even women do not stand alone, though they often pride themselves upon the idea that they do. The rich man living among rich men adopt the practices and customs of his rich associates; the man in the church needs the help of men in the church to be benefited of his allilicious doctrine; the man in the alums lives like other men in the slums, and so, with each of us, we bear the marks of our surroundings, not often rising superior to our surroundings. To take a man or a woman or a child out of unfavorable surroundings and after years behind, is a much slower process at reform than it is for a child to be back on the spot, teaching many instead of one person only. Out of this idea, perhaps has grown the settlement idea or the neighborhood trust the spectacle of a well-ordered house which invites within its doors the young and old, cleanliness and economy and providing good reading and disciplined recreation for their leisure moments and such reliance on their lives above the animal stage this is the first object lesson of the settlement. Of the new responsibility resting upon them, and together they go out to live cleaner lives, 'partners in sin, in indulence, maybe they turn their footsteps into righteous clanics. Another feature that makes settlement work forceful in its permanence *Stassmide results*. But the slow and persistent plodding kept up year in and year out is necessary. The children must be guided and trained constantly, the children must be guarded, trained and educated into something higher than that into it. The greatest difficulty in cases where the children are alienated the real purpose involved in the work. When once the occupant of the appraisal room can be helped, that here is no opportunity offered by such孤立的 bands with the sole purpose of bettering the life has so often been Accompanied that doubts not to longer arise as to its possession must process rare qualities, and an abundance of the self-sacrificing spirit goes without saying. But the world is large and there Near the same city where this bank is located there is another effect which is significant because of its unique wealth; are they real and iron mines, its smelting works and manufacturing establishments. Hundreds of these enterprises. As is usual with large concentrations of this kind, the workmen and their equipment. Being in the nature of things removed from the cities where school girls need to be beheaded upon special occasion, the rank and in most cases actually are regarded as so many attachments; the general machinery, the tools, the weapons, the body and body together to render the service required of them little else is given, little else is required in order that the competition to stay far from the place of occupation may be reduced to the minimum. The teachers must be beaten at his task when the bell tolls in the morning. Well these wage earners whose eyes had been stained less than a minute, determined to provide the facilities for educating their children, less than a minute, determined to provide the facilities for educating their children, less than a minute, determined to establish a school, is an easy matter for them to accomplish, and so they put their heads in the classroom, and so they put their heads in the classroom that they might receive the training that would make them upright, in the sense that for the parents that were waiting for them. The school is now in successful operation; its corps of teachers are competent and intelligent, enthusiasm of the right sort; and all signs indicate a great future for this school which had its birth in the hearts of its citizens. When of our millions there shall be a vast number of skilled workers, who will be the factor among the general body of laborers. Skilled workers are generally not known by the color of their skin, and while it is easy to exclude from our skilled colored corps from participation, trained by other people, it will not be so simple a thing when, there are sufficient workmen of color to carry out the whole enterprise, and the efficient effort at self-begin by teaching trades or some special form of work, the answer is plain. Men must work to live, and the most important command better wages, and the great mass of mankind will always constitute the body of laborers. The laboring classes or the mild work of that people. They form the wholesome, stable class, whose virtues react on what is above and below, and only forty-years ago, the work of developing and welding together a middle class is yet in process. Our professional men and women, only forty-years ago, are noble individual efforts innumerable, but the work for the millions remains yet to be encouraged. Each community has its motive, which has as its basic principle the good of the individual and the community should be encouraged. Each community has its motive, which has as its basic principle the good of judiciously. I have seen the whole aspect of localities here in the South altered and ample with new and more some with warm-self-assertive spirit, while lowly parents recording their children merely as sources of revenue and sending them to work. It is as if it is possible for their tiny fingers to perform the service, reversing their primitive notions and come to realize that the philosophy is an unending obligation. I have seen a lowly church becoming so clearly the center of its visibly chlamy of the home life of all its people, supplanting disorder and dirt with cleanliness and order, and making sentient beings out of the thoughtless and the headless. The helpless poor are no longer needed. Organized charity is supplying those who need work and those unable to work. In many cases things may be to help them, but from here even the poor house, younger, with down here, is not able to work. Work is needed to the master of the South's worst poverty, would say. How paltry such provision for the inmates of a poor house? Yet to us who lailt the inmates, we are from anxiety, assured that they will be fed, boned and when it is cold and are physically helpless - it is luxury itself. And thus through time and in devious ways the work must go on, contemptuous. That is why the poor are not far to work, for the helpless people. Opportunities all over this broad land are not far to work, for the helpless people are always with us making more appeal to our consciousness. JOSHUA R. BURKE. LESSON OF DUNBAR'S CAREER. Example of Geula in Pure Negral One of Notable Neural Networks. It is not to be pretended that the Ninepost Lonar, who died the other day only thirty three years old, will take a top rank in the list of American poets, but he was the recognized chief singer of his race. It is not surprising that his race has produced so few, for the United States did not supply one for two hundred years after the settlement of Jamestown. One in a twenty million people is as many as we can expire even though every fourth man and every fifth woman has been a Ninepost Lonar. He is so beloved by Ninepost Lonar that with little drop of white blood, his father ran away to Canada before the war, and his mother was freed by Lonar's promotion. He got a common school education and met his living by running an elevator at Boston, even when he had published volumes of poetry. He was a short tame, till his health tailed, in the Congressional Hall, where he all for several years before his death which he amputated in the lines published in Lonar's Magazine last December. Because I had loved so deeply, I and song with such intimate beauty, I took the title of song. Because I had loved so deeply, I and song with such intimate beauty, I took the title of song. Much of his poetry was in the dialect of the non-English and published short stories and five or six novels. His merit was that he had a keen interest in environmental English and published popular vernacular as a vehicle of expression and made that vernacular classic. He found poetry in the black man's accounts of life, in his disappointments and leavements. He found a vein unworked and a vein that had been written had done in press, and he became in the true sense of the term, a popular poet. It is observed that he did not popularize his work, but he himself bim a much of genius. The Independent. How Dumbar Came to Write Love Lyrical Known. The Stingingbird Republican When Paul Laurence Dunbar was sending his young poems to various newspaper, on the chance of meeting favor, one was accepted by The Republican and another sent book with a note advising the reader to write a poem in his love poetry. The answer came back: "Do you suppose your readers would not not funny? Would they, not laugh at it? or am a blonde? Would they, not laugh at it? or am a blonde? This is the substance, and the exact wording of the letter. The answer was to be so he did, with what it is well known. Nobody met the Negro's love tyries.

LORMAN, Miss., February 11.—Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical college, located at this place, is the institution maintained by the State of Mississippi for the training of Afro-American boys and girls. It was founded in 1871 by the legend, and the grounds and buildings of Oakland college, a famous anti-bellum institution, were purchased and dedicated under the name of Alcorn university. In 1878, the better to comply with an act of Congress of 1872, the name was changed to Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical college. The work of Alcorn college is not unlike that of various other great colleges for Afro-American schools in the South, at the other schools, great stress is laid upon industrial education. Coming upon the grounds, one finds himself in an Afro-American community, well laid out with streets and avenues. The school buildings, of which there are about twenty, are arranged in the shape of a horsehouse, and the 16 cottages in which the students are resident to the shoe. The president's home, Adelphia hall, the chapel and one or two other buildings are all that remain of the M.

We are gratified that The New trilateral States takes the same view of the domestic service question in the South that The Age does. But why does *The States* insist that the position which THE ACE takes to do offers from that which it took yesterday? We have always maintained—and we sustained in that position by the most eloquent and forceful of Southern writers since George E. Prentiss, namely, Henry W. Grady, that while the Afro-American is under the present circumstances essential to the effectiveness of Southern industrialism, he is not necessarily indispensable. We do not need foreign ingredients in the domestic service situation in the Southern States. The black woman should supply that service. Do we request too much when we ask *The States* to insist on this view and help us to keep the labor we have rather than turn to labor which we have not? Free Labor Contrasted with Slave Labor. We reproduce in another column of Tiff Ack, an article from The *Vaundtator* Record on "Prosperity in the South," which could be read profitably by every Afro-American in the country. The philanthropic growth of Southern farm values and production, and the steady increase in the value of southern farm lands, since the war, is confirmation strong as 101). Writ of the conclusion reached, in 1820, by Hinton Rowland Helper, a North Carolina, still living, in that remarkable book, "The Impending Crisis of the South," when he extols the value of free labor over slave labor, in the following passage (p. 561). Such are the agricultural achievements of slave labor, such as the results of the "sons of all villains" "the diabolical institution sublats on its flesh. At one time children are sold to procure food for the parents; at another, parents are sold to procure food for the children. Within its presidential atmosphere everything becomes dull, desolate and unappreciable; wretchedness and desolation can riot throughout the land; an aspect of most melancholy inactivity and dilapidation includes over every city and town; ignorance and prejudice attnured over the minds of the people; unsparing despair weld the secretes of power into the heart of the people; war and the Gulf of Mexico are the multitudinous exits of slavery apparent. The self itself soon slacks and dies beneath the unnatural tread of the slave. What a faithful, what a horrible, what a revolting picture of the results of slave labor! First labor has changed all this, as Mr. Helper predicted it would; it has given value to lands that slavvy blighted, and it has produced abundance where slavery produced want and woe. But the lesson taught, between the time withal, by *The Manufacturer's Record* marvelous demonstration of Southern prosperity under the magic impulse of free labor, will be lost upon the Afro-American people if they do not recognize the storm fact that the day of cheap farm lands in the Southern States is rapidly passing away, and will have passed entirely by the end of the next fifty years, and that they will have a golden opportunity which will never come to them again if they do not bend every effort to the task of securing in for example all the land they can. It is true now, and will always be true that they own all the land they will own these who live in Afro-Americans of the South desire not yourself; buy land now while it is within your reach, for the time comes, and quickly, when the opportunity to do so will be gone. The Foreign Mote and the Domestic Beam. Mr. John E. Milliardland, at the Constitution League meeting in New York, exposed in a series of fervid, balanced essays, the inconsistency of the United States government in existing profit vengeance for wrongs done its citizens abroad and in ignoring with stolid apathy the wrongs done citizens at home. Mrs. Terrell passionately contrasted our sympathy with murdered Russian Jews with our indifference toward murdered American citizens. While we are proud that our Nation not only protects its citizens abroad but also has the heart to intercede in behalf of oppressed citizens of other lands, we regret that its inconsistency, as pointed out by the speakers named, lays it open to the soffs and defensive grims of the other Nations. Did we not ourselves live in a house largely constructed of glass, we could with better grace and more effect cast stones at other sliders. We suppose that many sports and horse loughs have been awakened abroad by the resolution introduced in the House by Representatives, Mr Goldfogle and Mr Sulzer, protesting against the outrages upon Jews in Russia, Still, if Mr. Goldfogle really meant that he said, his speech was just asking: "The adoption of this resolution" he said, "will serve to convey to the world at large a lesson far-reaching and most powerful in its moral influence. It will serve another step in the annual march of human justice toward the destruction of race, hatred, class bitterness, religious factions and brutal intolerance." If Mr. Goldflegh's meaning is literal, he is in conscience bound to attempt the destruction of the manifestations of race hatred in the South. A good beginning would be for Mr. Goldflegh to take up the position of the National Federation of Civic Rights for the enforcement in the South of the Sixth Amendment. If, on the other hand, he doe nothing in this direction; his assertion that "America always stands foremost and conspicuous in every endeavor to break down the barriers that the narrow-minded may still maintain between class and class or creed and creed" will turn out to be on his part an empty and despicable brag. Afro-American Womanhood. No great a cynic as Napoleon Bonaparte is said to have declared, with the directness which has always characterized the words and acts of great soldiers, that "the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." It is so just a conclusion that the authorship of it is not material. Whether acknowledged or ignored, it is still a fact that womanhood has been, the strength and inspiration of great men from Xues to William Lloyd Garrison, and of great nations from Babylon to the United States. The higher mankind rise in the scale of moral and intellectual development the higher the place womanhood is given, until from the position of slave and beat of burden in the life of the savage she reaches the place of the strongest and sweetest force in the life of the civilized man. The reverence, the sympathy and respect in which Jesus Christ, the noblest of all historical characters, hold womanhood has become the most endearing and helpful influence in the life of Christian manhood. A discussion of this question is always timely, because great truths cannot be too frequently reiterated, and because a general contempt and depreciation of Afro-American womanhood is a part of the stock in trade of Southern white men, who have done all that they could, in the days of slavery as well as of freedom, to destroy the chastity of those women: first, by systematic debauchery of them by force, and, second, by a campaign of literary disagreement, anneer and brazen proclamation intended to make other people look at the matter as they do, with utter disregard of the facts. It is to the credit of some Southern white men, like the editor of the *Charleston Neues and Carrier*, that they have resented the sweeping statement of a discredited ministerial freelance turned literary buccaneer, that "Negro women are without virtue, and have no idea of virtue." Far from being true, this statement is a brutal falsehood, all the more hurtful because there are so many people who believe that it is true, simply because they do not know the facts, and have been maliciously and designed missed and imposed upon by persons who have dedicated their lives and that of their porosity, as their ancestors had, done before them, to the hopeless task of keeping ten million people in a condition of social and political isolation and inconsequence. That the task was foredoomed to failure should have been evident to those who inaugurated it. No cause, based upon race, color or condition, can ever become a factor in American life, because the American democracy, the most genuinely such which has been developed in the history of mankind, will not tolerate it and cannot without destroying the vital force which animates the Republic. Afro-American womanhood was the most remarkable fact in the life of any slave people. It steadily gained strength and force in a condition where the woman had no protection of civil law or ecclesiastical usages in which legal marriage was not recognized, and in which she was regarded and treated as a breeder of stock rather than of men. And, yet, her love of home, her devotion to her common law attachment and her affection for her offspring, all of which could be destroyed in a manner, was the only force in the slave master, were the only forces in her miserable life which beautified it and grew steadily in tenderness until they became a passion with her as with the women of other races. When the War came to a close, when she was made a free person and brought under the provisions of civil law and ecclesiastical usage, she had no home, she had no husband in a legal sense, and her children had a mother but no father under the law. We have no historical parallel to the awful condition which confronted her. And you she took up the burden of a free woman with courage, and first legalizing the loose attachment under the Freedman's Bureau, which she had contracted as a slave woman, she began the work of making a home and of educating her children. The success which she has had is a monument to her care by her own hands which will stand as the Afro-American people shall remain an unabused and distinct race element of the American citizenship. She did more than create a home and help to educate her children; she helped to build a church life which today is rated as a commanding and helpful factor in the Nation's moral effort to plant in all of the people's ideals of right living and high thinking. She has in this way, in the space of forty years, helped to educate thirty thousand teachers for the public schools and twenty thousand for the Sunday schools and millions of wives for honest men. And the good work proceeds right along without interruption, making the men stronger and better citizens, elevating and broadening the character of our manhood, which is making steadily for the greater strength of the race as well as of the Republic. In every community where there are more Afro-Americans a small society of the "best people" can be found, whose standards are as clean and as high as those of other elements of the citizenship, and in which honesty of living is no more tolerated. This is becoming more pronounced so every year we are further removed from the moralized and debased social condition from which we started in 1855. We have among us a large percentage of men and women of lower morals, and they are to be found in the red light districts of every city, and town, but they are only a small part of the people and are not to be taken as the standard of race pride and humanity and right living, but rather that larger element scattered through the whole population who strive to live correct and useful lives. This is true, even as it is the great mass of the citizenship of all cities of the population. When all of the situations in the situation are properly weighed, the Afro-American woman, instead of being compared to women of other races disparagably should receive the commendation of honest men for doing her duty, with fidelity. devotion and intelligence, under most trying circumstances, and of still doing it in the home, in the church, in the school and in the general activities of Life; for she is making her way in all directions, as her white sisters are doing, even in the manufacture of song and story. And as the race grows in wealth, as it is steadily doing, so that its womanhood shall have more leisure for the cultivation of the refinements of social life, the existence of high virtues and chaste lives we have in abundance in all parts of the Republic will be more generally recognized and appreciated by all of our fellow-citizens. The strongest and best force in the life of the Afro-American people to-day is in our womanhood. The highest of it is as cultured, as chaste, as winsome as the highest of other peoples, while the lowest of it is no more so than the lowest of other peoples. We need to emphasize this aspect of the matter and to insist more than we do and have done that other men pay the respect to our womanhood which they insist we shall pay to theirs. Future of Plantation Melodies. President Roosevelt rendered a valuable service to Music when he called attention, with the impressive emphasis which his high office held, all his utterances, to the rich fields, as yet uncultivated and almost unexplored, comprising the old plantation melodies or "Nero spirituals." While we cannot go so far as the "great French literary man" whom the President quoted as asserting that "there are but two chances for the development of schools of American music, one coming from the colored people and one from the Indians," we do not hesitate to pronounce as sound the President's prophecy that on the basis of the plantation melodies some school of American music will be founded. It is true that this opinion is considered ridiculous by some eminent music critics, Dr. Flinck, the bourned and vehement music editor of *The New York Evening Post*, seems to regard the Negro and Indian melodies with contempt. We are inclined, indeed, to concur in his opinion of Indian folk-songs. These, so far as we are acquainted with them, suffer from a fatal defect—a penny of melody. But it is in just this respect that the Negro folk-songs are extremely wealthy. Even in their busiest form of degradation—we mean "rig-time" songs—there is an exuberance of melody; it is to be sure, gross, of the earth earth, appealing to the feet more than the feelings; but it pulsates with warm life-blood, it is vigorously alive. With all its erudition, we prefer "rig-time" to the thin, anemic music of, say, "Puntan." The one has all the promise of sturdy, uncoath and awkward youth; the other shows every evidence of feeble deprenitude. The "spirituals" proper are far superior to "reg-time," their degenerate offspring, but are like it in possessing the capital characteristic of life. It is a life more refined, less childishly joyous, but still throbbing life. They often make a sincerely pathetic appeal to the heart; they successfully express emotions. When they shall have been purged of their barbarisms and separated from their too often grotesque words by the taste of genius, then, we are sure, we shall have some noble music. It is true that Dr. Dyxorak has done much in this direction. Indeed, he has done too much. The phrases from "Swing Low, Swing Charlott," utilized by him in his "Aus" poem, are so beautiful that they have entirely lost their peculiar flavor. They were so completely Europeanized as to obliterate Africa. We suspect that the composer who will first worthily utilize the plantation melodies will be an Afro-American, learned, of course with all the musical learning of Europe, but still versatile enough to make himself one in spirit with the unknown and lowly composers of the "Negro spirituals." Who Fixes a Man's Place in the Social Order Editor Davis of *The Atlanta Independent* declared recently that "We may have as many conferences as we please, but the line of denomination is eternally fixed and we cannot rise any higher than the estimate our neighbors place upon our worth and usefulness as American citizens. Conferences are not the places to begin our fight for civil and political independence. Self is the force field in which to begin operation." The ACE characterized this as "false, vicious and mischievous doctrine." We stand by the characterization as accurate and first and for the reason we have before given and which we have affirmed, that "It is true of a man, as of a race, that he must poke for himself the character of 'worth and usefulness', which shall compel the 'estimate' which his neighbors shall put upon him." The Editor of *The Independent* thinks we are entirely wrong in our view of the matter, and we are satisfied to leave it to the intelligence of our readers. The Southern white man insists that "the Negro shall be kept in his place." What place? The one the Southern white man arbitrarily insists upon, one of inferiority and subservience. But the Negro nowhere accepts this, except under protest, and heroically making and taking his proper place. What proper place? One of equality under the law, state and Federal, politically and civilly; one of justice and equity, economically; one of equality morally and intellectually, metaphysically. Can he do this and compel the Southern white man to acknowledge it? We think so; we think he is doing it, gradually. He must do it; he must make his own place and compel his neighbors to acknowledge it, and he must keep the place when he has made it. To allow his white neighbors to make his place, as they have done, and to keep him in it as they are striving to do, would be civil, political, economic, social, moral and intellectual death. The Editor of *The Independent* says, in justification of his connotation that "The best opinion the northern white man has of the Negro as a mass is at long range, and just so as he comes among us and finds out that the masses of us are shiftless and untrustworthy he readily agrees with our southern white neighbor in his estimate of worth and usefulness, as citizens". This opinion sustains our position. It cannot be found that the Southern Negro masses are shiftless and untrustworthy, and we are astounded that Editor Davis should unflushly subscribe to this Southern white man's lie: they are not shiftless and untrustworthy, but more industrious and relatable, and more surely the backbone of Southern industrialism now than they were before the war, and the enshrined value of southern farm values and production alone proves it. But the Southern white man, to serve a base purpose, says he, and in- stand of refusing it, the Editor of The Independent magazine and reiterates it as his own. We must make our own place in American life. If we don't do it, if we allow white men to make it for us and keep us in it, we shall have and keep the place that Tillman, Vardaman, Dixon, and their sort insult upon as right and proper for us. "The Changman" Elseco. The failure of "The Clansman" in New York means that any attempt to stir-up race prejudice in the North is likely to fail, and will, very probably, accomplish the very opposite of its purpose. "The Clansman" had very extraordinary chances of success. Its author, through his books, articles, sermons and lectures, has achieved a motority almost National. The play enjoyed a sensational progress through the South; and reports of its extreme praises and no less extreme denunciations were forwarded northward by the over faithful Southern. Press Association and were intended to excite the keenest anticipations for its New York appearance. The advertising of the play was managed by one of the most astute of press agents. Actors of reputation were engaged and one of the high-class theatres of the city was hired. Nevertheless, "The Clansman" produced hardly a ripple on the rushing stream of the life of the metropolis. When it closes its run here next week it will have played little more than seven weeks in this city. No play leaves Broadway unless it loses money. Why, with all its remarkable advantages has "the Chimmanon" failed? Partly because its author, for all his ostentatiously advertised course in playwriting, doesn't know how to write a play. His clumsy, silly performance, though proclaimed far, and wide as "in play with a mission," could not conceal its deficiencies from the acute and merciless critics and the blase theatre-goers of New York. But the chief cause of failure, we are inclined to believe, is the repugnance of Dixon's purpose to the average Northerner. This individual happens to know at closer range than does the average Southerner the better class of Afro-Americans. The Northerner, in the majority of cases, is more or less intimately acquainted with some Afro-American whom he finds to be essentially quite the same kind of person as himself. Therefore, the Northerner, when he sees Afro-Americans as a class hold up as beasts and soundbirds, conserves considerable contempt for the judgment of the demonstrator and feels possibly some resentment for the insult which such a spectacle offers his own understanding. The average Northerner is not prone to take the so-called "Negro problem" very seriously; he sees too many Afro-Americans who present no problem whatever which is not peculiar to themselves. Besides not discrediting Afro-Americans with the average Northerner, "The Clanman" has by a reaction kindled anew the warm friendship which many Northerners, like Dr. McArthur, Rabbi Silverman, Dr. Mudsonia C. Peters and others, entertain for our people. The daily papers have been liberally sprinkled with letters from white men and women denouncing Dixon and defending us. This revival of good feeling towards Afro-Americans has been salutary, and much more important than the production of "The Clanman" in New York. It seems to have accomplished little if any harm but rather considerable good. And all similar undertakings are likely to have the same effects. While we do not mean to endorse the President's theory that a little Rough Riding covers a multitude of sins, such as murder and theft, we cannot help laughing at Senator Malloy's objection to the appointment, as Marshal of Arkansas, of Hen Daniels, who served a term in the Senate. He said Senator Malloy "cannot be passed over too lightly." But Senator Malloy once upon a time when he was a Ku Klux凯拉 held up Afro American citizens and robbed them of their ballot. The truth is that Senator Malloy, with all his ability in character only a penultimate politician, was a Ku Klux凯拉 held up Afro American citizens whenever party interests, demand an agent face. He once helped nullify the Fifteenth Amendment. But in the last President's campaign he posed as the champion of the Constitution against the alleged insurpations of Mr. Roosevelt. "Nevertheless, Senator Malloy the other day placed Senator Patterson on the floor for asserting his constitutional duty to色e he saw fit. A suspiciously vexed man."

T. Dixon holds the longest record of any pastor now in active service of any one congregation. Pastor Dixon will have with the Concord forty-three years next October. The church is highly engaged in making preparations for this distinguished gathering and has engaged Powell and Wiley, caterers, to prepare the dinner on this occasion.

Parkins, instructor of the teachers, Training Class at Concord, gave a presentation on the residence on Bridge street on Wednesday evening. 14th instant, which proved to be a magnificent affair. Various games and activities were played in, and a summons repost was served. The class has had a year's study in Old Testament history and chronology, and has been taught the history of Christ. When they complete the prescribed course they will be the first group of young women of the race headquarters to the Class. No. 10 of the Senior Department of the Concord Baptist School of, which Mrs. Charlotte Nebit is teacher, will give an entertainment for the Easter offering of the school to the church on Thursday, March 20. MR. BURLINGTON AS A COMPOSER. Miss Fortune Thinks He Leads' After American Song Writers. Not only does Mr. Harry T. Burleigh—and the Afro-American composer this with pride—cell forth the highest admiration from some of Afro-American's most wealthy and critical lovers of music by his rich baritone singing, but also by the many delightful songs which he has composed and which place him in the estimation of the writer foremost among Afro-American composers of his class. As a race, we have made some signal successes in the writing of so-called "ragtime" music. Who of us has not enjoyed "The Castle on the Nile" "Under the Bamboo. Tree," "Molly Green" "Mandy Low," and many, many others? And who of us has not, on hearing those familiar strums from the orchestra, felt a little thrill of pride that these airs, which never fail to respond in the audiences, were composed by members of our own race and probably by friends of our own? And yet these HARLY T. BURLEIGH. HARBY T. BURLEIGH. compositions are in a class far below the classical. They cannot rank with Fran's or MacDowell's songs, much less with Listen's or Schubert's; and so, while we are proud of the "rag-time" composers because we admire success and true worth in any branch of work, especially when they are exemplified in members of our own race. we are exceedingly proud to find among ourselves one who writes songs in our estimation, compared with those of Franz. Grieg, MacDowell and others. A study of Mr. Hurleigh's latest songs presents this, although a few of his earliest short comparison with the later ones, "Journ," as an example, being his masterpiece so far. A glance at the two sets of songs shows on the whole an astonishing and pleasing improvement in the matter of beauty of accompaniments, climaxes and adaptation of music to words. A short review of a few of the best of these little genius of music should prove interesting to those who may not be familiar with them. One of the dainiest and prettiest of the newer ones is entitled "Apart." It consists of the following lines: If I were dead, I think that you would come, And look upon me, white and red, and say, "Fool child, I'm sorry you have gone away." But just because my body has to live and die, I must come home and The shortest of all the songs, but by no means less beautiful or less strong than the longer one, is "And As the Gulls Soar." This one contains only four lincs, and is a little gem as an encore song, "O Love of a Day" is another of the later songs that is always received with enthusiasm. Both the music and the words are full of feeling. Mr. Burleigh has also written a folk song which is genuinely and delightfully Scotch. It is called "Folk Song" or "I Love My Jean." "Dreamland," "Just My Love and I" and "Mammy's Lil' Baby" have the distinction among others of having their words written by Mr. Burleigh" wife, Louise Alston Burleigh. "Perfect Love," which was dedicated to Miss Dora Cole of Philadelphia, and which was composed for her wedding in 1904, is another song the music of which perfectly corresponds to the moods expressed by the words. Of this style of music List was fond, and beautifully ex-cumplified it in his "Larose." The "Birthday Song," the first one of Mr. Burleigh's which I ever tried, has never lost its pristine freshness and power to delight me, in spite of the many times it has been sung. The theme of the song is well given in the last few lines, which run as follows: Because the birthday of my life is come, My love is come to me. And there are over so many others, "Love's Pleading," "If Life Be a Dream," "Love's Garden," "Waiting," etc., all of which possess a rare charm. In return for the many hours of pleasure and consolation I have derived from his songs, I deem it a privilege to render Mr. Burleigh this song's tribute of appreciation. I would share this pleasure with others who may not have had an opportunity of knowing of Mr. Burleigh's splendid work as a composer. And as England points with pride to its, Coleridge-Taylor, notwithstanding the fact that African blood flows in his veins, so may America with equal broadness point with pride to Mr. Burleigh. Walter D. McClusin Addresses the Carlton Avenue Branch, Y. M. C. A. Mr. Walter D. Mellman, a student of the New York Theological Seminary, spoke to the men of the Carlton Avenue Branch on Sunday; subject "A Purpose.

Mrs. Nanaile Burroughs Plains Industrial Traveler for Our Girls LOUISVILLE, Ky., February 10.—The Thirteenth and Broadway A. M. E. Zion church tendered to Bishop G. W. Clinton last week a public reception. It was one of the large in attendance affair, of its kind held here in the city, for the occasion of monies, and the programme, participated in by local stalls, was of the highest order. Welcome addresses were delivered by representatives of various church organizations and by the most thoughtful and interesting speaker was Rochelle I. Smith, who represented the Negro Business Men's League. Bishop Clinton an eloquent address on the late Dr. J. C. A. G. Jordan, presented the bishop with a leather telescope. While here the Bishop held a conference with Dr. L. G. Jordan, R. W. Thompson and several citizens who are affiliated with the Afro-American Council. Mr. Frank Fowler Brown, the talented tenor singer, entertained a large musical audience night at the Episcopal Church of Oldbury, where his appearance here three years ago Mr. Brown's voice has received special training. His sweetness and volume, reaching the highest note, ensured he scored hits on "Jean," by Harry Burleigh, and "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast," by Harry Burleigh. The song was assisted by Mrs. Lacrette Gibson, Johnson, Geiger, and Mrs. Limie Evans. Mrs. N. H. Burroughs, one of the most well known platform orators in the country, has given much of her time to the endeavor to have her students establish a national training school for the Afro-American women, similar to other large industrial schools. When asked about the work she said, "This institution is going to train students for the job of skilled in domestic and industrial permits, to prepare them for home and foreign mission work, stenography, music and other arts." There is back of this movement the National Institute, where I hope to get $1,000 from them and $3,000 from the people. This done, it will be a go. We are going to stir the country on question of training for our young women." The New Albany public schools held exercises on February 14 in memory of Hon. Frederick A. Donghua. The life and charm of this great Afro-American was told by the young students in musical selections were rendered by the school. Colonel R. W. Thompson and Cory B. Lewis were the special speakers of the conference. Dr. L. G. Jordan returned to the city after several weeks in the South in the interest of the Afro-American Council. He left the same week for Washington, D. C. Return be. hopes to have Hon. J. Donghua and his class meet in the interests of the community. Editor W. H. Steward, Rev. Wood of Dallas and Mary B.

When the War Department announced its decision that the 19th Army would be sent to the Philippines, the Media Colonizer, a pageant of itself with colorful hats and a crowned horse, but not promptly get open and supplied by a wife. Since, which seems to be a journal-honorable character, The War Department has also announced that all the four African American regiments will soon see service in the Philippines. The War Department knows the African American soldiers will quite possibly be engaged in an active campaign, in China if they can only convince the War Department that they are capable of offering themselves. What The Evening-Foot presences is a good able triumph of Negro citizenship" took place in Mobile a few days ago. when ninety of the "principal citizen" joined in presenting a gold watch and fob to Rev. A. F. Owens, head of the theological department of the Colored State that University at Belma. Among those who made speeches was a former attorney general of Alabama and alternate candidate for the United States Senate. Rev. Owens was then a minister in the work with a bum-tarian and philanthropist, with especial reference to his good work in probing annual Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners for the poor of the county asylum and the city hospital, through collections was the merchants of Mobile, for twenty eight, and his good work during yellow fever visitation in this city in 1870 and 1897. Mr. Stephen Phillips' new play, "Netta," is characterised in London as a spectacle of cosmic magnificence, but no drama. The music composed for the play by Mr. Coleriday Taylor, however, is greatly lauded. The London correspondent of *The New York Tab* is written: "Nero," at Ilis Majesty's theatre, in not so much a play with dramatic purpose as it is a varied and splendid entertainment of imperial Rome in the crisis of decadence and the need for sensual intimate resources of stage art and with sensual oral music, composed by Mr. Coleriday lor. I am not sure but that the music is more dramatic than the play itself—especially the bacchanalian actrice, the pompous procesional march and the weird fire motives. In a letter to The Chicago American Mine Ella Wileller Woollox records among other occasions in Jamaica, W. I., where she is spending the winter, the merits of a teacher at the school, and the joy of teaching. "He is a man of very dark," ablent handwritten features. . . . * . . . * To talk with Mr. Plant regarding his ideas and ideals of life and the future of his race is to feel new ideas and ideals germinate in your own mind and soul. Plant is a man of great heart. To know what he has done, to think of all he may do, must give one an impulse of fresh hope for the world. It is small enough praise to call Mr. Plant as he has been called by the head of all the educational institutions in the good woods of Jamaica." Mr. Plant is principal of the schools in Port Autolio. We give elsewhere a splendid article on "The Judice in the Philippines," by Mrs. Elise Clare Parsons, wife of Congressman Herbert Parsons president of the Republican county committee and daughter of Mr. Henry Cleo, the lawyer Mrs. Parsons; like her husband, diales the frivolous case which her wealth could provide and is active in many good works. She is a friend on sociology at Harvard college in the article on the college lady's blame for the alienation of the Philippines at the doora of the Americans in the Islands, whom she charges, especially the women, with race unobbleness. She declares that the officials we send there should be men of ideals as well as ability. This has been out contention for several years. In forcing the resignation of Governor Wright a notable article over colorophobia was achieved. He was enchanted in the Presidential favor, his strongest benefactor was a Southern Democrat. Yet he had to go and prove because of his congenital and inexact knowledge prejudices. Our neighbor, The New York Times, writes an explanation of the early death of Wilhelmina Dunbar a Southern scientist's daughter of the Afro-American, though mentally capable of physical stimulation, mental development, in the physical stimuli to mental development, in the images of scholarship. If we should ask that the premature death of Kate or the mentable paralysis of MacDowell in the print of life argued anything whatever as to the stamina of the Anglo-Saxon race. The Theodore Roosevelt at our peril and foolish judgement. Yet I must admit itself to be betrayed into a parallel error, the neighbor could not have died in support of theory a less felicitous example than Dunbar it happens, as everybody who is at all qualified with his unfortunate career knows that a definite cause for his early death was the accident, and this cause was by no other study.

Chairman of the Republican Campaign Committee has fully decided to retire therefrom, and in the event a new chairman shall be chosen as the successor of Hina, J. W. Babcock of Wisconsin, no one would fill the bill with more ability than Hon. James A. Tawney. Mr. Tawny is one of the foremost Republican leaders now in Congress, and is a vigorous and tactful organizer. He represents young and stalwart element of the Republican party in the last few years to keep the party in power. He is a plain, blunt American citizen, and his familiarity with the game of successful-American politics is little less mature. He knows how to get the vote when it matters. He is able experience in the Congressional contests as a lieutenant to Mr. Babcock. He is adroit and knows the political map of the country second to no man in political life, and he is a strong leader of the Republican Congressional Committee's minute knowledge of things and men would prove a telling factor when the fight begins. He is still a young man and would naturally be the young and sturdy element of the Republican Congressional Committee in the States. He is liked by all classmates in the section from which he halls, especially by the colored voters in the middle West. We hope Mr. Tawny will be chosen; if he is it will be to the rank and file of the party, especially the rank and file in the Congressional districts. Mr. Tawney has climbed to his present political influence by sheer hard labor in the political field and represents in Congress the ways a resident of that State, however, but migrated there from Pennsylvania in 1877, settling in Winna, Minnesota, where he had even been a resident. In 1890 he was elected the State Senator of Minnesota and for the first time to the Fifty-third Congress. He has been re-elected every time, and his talents as an organizer was also a great asset. He ago as the Republican "white" of the House of Representatives among the Republicans. His star still seems to be in the ascendency. Now is the opening of the present Congress, and he is the chairman of the great Appropriations Committee of the House—this committee, perhaps, requiring greater executive ability than any other in the House of Representatives. The Republican party, therefore, could make no better choice for the head of its Congressional Campaign Committee than the leader of the lower branch of Congress. DEATH OF "FATHER" TINNEY. His Early Settlement In Brooklyn—Afro- Americans Who, Own Property. Marriage Anniversary Surprise. On Monday evening, February 12, 5 pleas ant surprises was tendered to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thomas of 53 Sixth avenue. The surprise being the twentieth anniversary of their marriage, Mrs. Thomas had been invited to dinner in Brooklyn on February 12 and when she returned home she soon met to her husband by a gathering of friends she greeted her entrance with mode and applause. Mme. J. Napolon recited and their was instrumental and vocal memoranda. The successive meetings enjoyed. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas received many pretty and useful conveniences. Among those present Rev. and Mrs. McMullen and Mrs. Walter, Mr. and Mrs. McMullen and Mrs. Charles Walker, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Harmor, and Mr. and Mrs. E.

In selecting an All-Western football team, E. C. Patterson in last week's Collier's objects Mr. Marshall, an Afro-American who is a member of the Minnesota community, commented on the fact that Mr. Patterson "very few gains have been made around his (Marmall's) end this year. He is quick in discerning and in carrying the ball he made consistent gains." Joe Gana, lightweight champion of the world, is having troubles of many kinds these days. It is an impossibility for Gana to secure a match of any kind. He has cleaned up his class thoroughly, so thoroughly, in fact, that all white claimants for his title fight sigh of him. Gana has not only put all the best men of the light weight class away but has settled the troubles of many a welterweight. He could with little effort have won the time to come. Walcott having retired from the ring undefeated in a real championship fight, leaves Gana the most formidable man in the welterweight claim. Gana compares McOwern and a very few others, who risen from one championship to another. His first world's title was the lightweight, which he gained by beating Frank Erne at Fort Erie, several years ago. His recent defeat of Mike Hall will give him the welterweight championship. Gana is probably the cleverest of all fighters now in the fighting game; he is not a dugong. His punch is like a flash, and always has the knockout drop at the end. He is never rattled, never let an opening battle to him happen, and he battles to fit the moment. He is the most finished ringster that ever stepped inside the squared circle. When he goes in to win, he makes it look like a ring. Uncertain fights he has engaged in recent years that makes it tickish speculating about his ring. This uncertainty always will keep Gana the ground of popularity among famous fighters. The situation regarding a match with a battling Nelson is best as for season 11 of the New York Journal-SAN FRANCISCO, February 11.—Which is the most attractive puligicid card in sight? It is the one that has been put to numbers of sporting men who are supposed to be thoroughly posted as to the "temper of the times," and the reply is the same—Joe Gnus and Battling Nelson. When Promoter Jim Coffroff returned from the Springs the other night he was asked to have my opinion as to "which is the most attractive card," but it's not in sight," was Coffroff's answer. When he explained: "A match between Gunnard Nolan would create more interest just now than an event which had Jeffries for a principal," said Coffroff. "It is an impossible match, though, and I will make it." My information on the subject dates back to the night Jimmy Gardner and Buddy Rynk boxed at Colina. Coming home on the club's special car Nolan and I sat in the lobby with Nolan. Our conversation was about as follows: "A great fighter, Gardner, just he?" he remarked Nolan. "He's a good man." I replied. "But there's one man can beat him!" continued Nolan. "Who do you mean?" "Joe Gans." "What Gans would have trouble making the weight that Gardner would ask," 1 ventured. "Don't ever believe it. said Battling Nelson's manager. "Gans can make 133 at any age." "He can make 133 at any age, until he puts his foot in the ring, and at that weight he can lie every white-skinned tightweight in the business to day." "That's the whole story," said Cofforth. "He's a man who has a heart and loves it. That is why I think it next to impossible to get Gans and Nelson together." Ben Selig, who is Ganss's San Francisco agent, was told of Coffrith's remarks, and he said: "I can give you more perturbation than I can give you more suspicion." Saulsalito on the ferry with Billy Nolan one day, and the talk turned to fighting. He rattled off the names of the men he thought Nolan could go through like suit-crime, a chink, and then he paused and pondered: "But there's one fellow Nolan will never box as long as I have a say in it," mused Nolan. That's what he said. Nolan must be muscled in that man when there's nothing but defeat staring him in the face." HOUSEHOLD TRAINING FOR GIRLS. Branch of Brooklyn Y. W. C. A.

MAD DIED SAVING MISTRESS. Eliza Virginia, the Afro-American mid-employed by Mrs. F. B. Tallman, of 272 Fourth avenue, went downstairs Wednesday night of last week and found the basement alabaz. She ran up stairs to awaken her Mrs. Tallman, who was screaming. Mrs. Tallman screamed out at the window for help, and after some time was rescued, half-suffaced, by firemen and sent to Bellevue hospital. She will recover. It was only when the fire was about out of firemen four and lying dead from suffocation near the window from which her mistress was rescued. THEATRICAL NOTES The Memphis Students, an aggregation of talented singers and musicians, with Miss Abigail Mitchell at their head, is scoring a big show. The students have carried everything before them. They have visited different parts of England, France and are now playing a most successful engagement in an all-star backtracking engagement at Hoover studio with Ernest Hogan as their star. Reports from abroad give great praise to the work of Miss Mitchell, Ida Farron, Henry Wiley, Slater and Williams, and Tilly Agnew. Joe Britton, said to be one of the best soft-shell dancers on the entire foreign girl-suit representing America, said that only Americans educated last month by Lord Suffolk of Barton Hill, England, for a high-class vaudeville entertainment. On January 11th the Pekin vaudeville proprietor, states that he will immediately rebuild a show in Chicago was destroyed by fire. The Pekin was the only theatre owned by colored people in the west. Robert Mattz proprietor, states that he will immediately rebuild a show in Wilkes, wife of the popular comedian, Ernest Hogan, is appearing in the best vaudeville houses in London, and is having a pronounced success. Hilly Mitchell and her wife are appearing in London and have won popular favor by their unique and original sketches. From The National Baptist Union. Our attention has been called in a very significant and striking manner to the objects and labor's of the Afro-American Council. We note that the Rev. L. G. Jordan, corresponding secretary of our Foreign Mission board, is also corresponding secretary of this organization, and that he is exerting himself most diligently with the hope that it may fill the place he deserves to fill, and do the good for which he is called. For the actual object of the Council, "for which it deserves the highest commendation, is its untiring effort to test the constitutionality of the Constitution, passed by the legislatures of the various Southern States. These laws are unconstitutional. A stiff, rigid, energetic and incessant fight against them on the part of the Constitution, passed by the fact that they are unconstitutional, and that they cannot stand the test. It takes money, however, to fight the battles of the race, and there is no source expected to come except from the Negroes selfs. The Council is appealing to one million Negroes for one dollar each. This dollar could be given, and a million dollars could be given to the least bit of injury to anybody who contributes. With one million dollars in its hands the Council could make a long, long list of sympathies of white people who believe in simple justice and equality before the law, but it could enlist in this service some of the shrewdest, most capable and most constitutive legal lawyers in this country. The objects of the Council are fraught with much wisdom. The cause that they present is that they are the people. The great question, as 'in all matters of this kind, is, Will the Negroes treat themselves right, will they pay earnest effort, will they put up the money that is necessary for their defense in this matter? Let us hope that they will. At all times, we must be careful, we are weary, we revolutions do not come in a day; it requires a great deat of patience and sacrifice to deal effectively with the knot-thread of citizenship hazardous in this country. Let the authorities of the Afro-American Council exercise this patience: let them pursue the even tenor of their way because they are not the cause is right, their contention is just, their methods are wise, and their fight cannot be in vain. We are in very great sympathy with this organization, and in whom it is trying to serve. Therefore we admonish Negroes everywhere to rally to the call of the Council, encourage it by money that they need and by money that they need to prosecute their clims. The Negro race has never had anything except for which it fought, and it seems now as if they will never get the stulthorn protest of Southern legislatures, and the amazing silence of Northern white friends. The Negro must fight his own battles; it must be done through his Council is a high type of manhood and bravery. It believes in the power of self-exertion. If the race clings to it and supports it in the proper measure, much more will be accomplished and prophesied of the good time to come will not be in vain. CHINESE COMMISSIONERS AT YALE.
