The New York Age. Assault Afro-American Guests Returning From Picnic. 5 MEN BADLY BEATEN Swear to Have Vengeance on Farrell at September Primaries. If Mr. John J. Farrell, candidate for the Republican leadership in the Thirteenth Assembly District, realizes the fact that his success or defeat lies in the hands of the Afro-American voters of the district, he has every reason to believe that his political name is already Dennis. Last Thursday the Thirteenth's Republican club, which is bossed by Mr. Farrell, and which is mainly composed of Irishman from the Gas House district—who are by nature Democrats at heart—gave a picnic at Whitestone L. I. About 800 men went along, including a sprinkling of Afro-American. During the day the latter, who were almost all supporters of Alderman John J. Hagen, the rival candidate for leadership in the Thirteenth, engaged in several arguments that the politician of the candidates; but had no idea that a cowardly and perfidious assault was being planned against them. When the party returned at night it paraded through San Juan Hill with prudence; mckeech, for it is dangerous for white men to start any trouble in that section. It was soon as the party reached the outskirts of San Juan Hill, simultaneous assaults were made upon its Afro-American guests. One Irish ruffian violently shored Mr. Gilchrist Stewart, the Afro-American leader of the Thirteenth, crying, "Here's the leader of Hahn's niggers!" and struck him a terrific blow in the jaw. As he staggered another black-guard kicked him in the side and rendered him fit for only one door, dusting a lantern over the head of Mr.orge L. Pryor and stunned him. Mr. nel Barlow, another Afro-American, lives in West 152d street, was assisted by several of Farrell's men at the corner of Columbus avenue and 62d street and badly beaten. The most dastardly assault was made upon Mr. George C. Washington, 226 West 61st street. He was standing at the corner of 60th street and Columbus avenue when a party of Farrell's fellows spied him. "There's another nigger," they cried, and made for him. He saw what was coming and bolted for a passing street car. The motorman accommodatingly stopped the car, despite Washington's entreaties. The latter then sprank off to run the gantle through most of the street, through bows from the ball hats, boots with heavy feet inside them and hunky knuckles. He broke away, however, and ran to the head of the procession, where rode in a cab two of Farrell's managers, who, he thought, would have feeling enough to protect him. He hegged them to save his life by taking him into their cab. They heartily retouched. "Washington then appealed to the leader who marched the head of the procession, this brute replied to his prayers for succor with a blow over the head with a huge Roman candle. The victim, inspired by the fear of imminent death, then took desperately to his heels and by dint of running at last found safety in the wilds of Central Park. An Afro-American named Price, who is employed by Mr. James E. Garner, was at the same time undergoing a thrashing at the corner of 50th street and Columbus avenue. He finally escaped with difficulty. American voters of the district are highly exasperated at Farrell and his cowardly hooflings. Members of the Monitor League, which had the misfortune to endorse Farrell's candidacy the very night before his beat up Afro-American voters who were their guests at the picnic, are especially indignant at this prompt outrage upon their confidence and trust. As one of them put it, "If Farrell's men beat us up before election, what in the world will they do to us afterwards?" It is apparent that Farrell and his men are not the sort for Afro-Americans to tie up to. The Afro-American voters of the Thirteenth are entirely too many to kiss the band that smiles them. For this顽icible, cowardly assault they will be enough to take full revenge at the September primaries. lone Especially From the South to Improve Equipment.

WARKINGTON, July 20—This week Register Vernor validated by his signature an issue of gold certificates aggregating $40,000,000. The issue consisted of four thousand $18,000 bills. In order that none read the address, the issuer added $10,000 bills of upon them, we applaud a description of the genuine bills; There are two varieties of $10,000 bills.

CHICAGO'S POPULAR SURGEON Had Achieved Reputation and Wealth in Ten Years. CHICAGO, July 20.—During the past week the entire community was shocked by the audition death of Dr. A. P. Perry, the well known and justly popular physician and surgeon. On last Wednesday he seemed to be in his usual health and spirits and was busily at work in his office when, almost without warning, he quietly passed away. Dr. Perry came to Chicago from Chattanooga, Tenn., about ten years ago and soon built up a large and lucrative practice. He was a man of energy and empathy in his profession and business affair and was considered one of the leading Afro-American physicians of the city. He was public spirited and a man of genial presence and generous impulses. He leaves a wife and three beautiful children. His home and family relationships were delightful. By his ten years of energetic application to business he became quite independent financially and was ready to enter into the enjoyment of his well earned success. His loss is deeply incurred by all classes of citizens. Will Celebrate Emancipation.

NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1966. FACTS AS TO RANSOM TRIAL Eyewitness Tells About A. M. E. Conference Investigation. BUT 25 MINUTES LONG And Only Two Men Spoke—Hostile Witnesses Offered, but Refused—A Farse. Special Correspondence of The Agr. PROVIDENCE, R. I., July 23—The author of this letter was an eyewitness of the so-called investigation of Rev. Ransom by the New England A. M. E. conference, and was greatly disgusted by the exoneration of his drunkenness by that body, a supposed conservator by profession of the morals of the people. The conference, in its resolutions on the subject, had the nerve to call its investigation of Ransom "thorough and rigid." In fact, the matter was under discussion for less than twenty-five minutes; and only two men spoke: Rev. Cole, who had the courage to bring the matter up, and Rev. Ransom himself. Rev. Cole began by saying that in his opinion the Ransom impoverished the conference an explanation of the reports about his adventures in Alabama. Rev. Ranom replied in a pathetic strain, saying that he was absolutely defenseless. He then had the effrontery to assert that he did not drink liquor in any form, and had never done so, save on one occasion, when he and Rev. A. L. Murray were in Chicago, at which time his (Ranom's) health was very poor. He also read a clipping defending him. Rev. Coles then stated that he and one-third of the ministers of the New England conference had seen Rev. Ranom staggering drunk at a district conference. This assertion nobody denied, not even Ranom himself. Bishop Turner at this thundered out a statement that he had seen Ranom drunk and had not reported him as their d'-; but added that as this had occurred, last year he could not take it up. It was then remarked that there were four men in Boston ready to诉乖 that Ranom had been drunk during this year. By declining to avail itself of the testimony of these four men, the conference betrayed its determination to whitewash Ransom, come what would. This was all the trial there was. Rev. Sculson introduced resolutions completely exculpating Ransom and they were adopted by the conference. DU BOIS' JOURNAL, "THE MOON." HAS SET BEFORE ITS TIME Sud End of a Melancholy Sheet—Its Death Diagnosed. MEMPIH, Tenn., July 21.—The early and unlamented death of *The Moon* should teach its manager, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, that he is not cut for an editor. Had *The Moon* furnished the kind of reading the people wanted the paper would have been sustained. The main thing that killed *The Moon* was the fact that the Afro-American people have got tired of singing the old song. "Hark from the Tomb, a Doleful Sound." They want something bright, hopeful and beautiful, and continue diligent despair walled into their cell on all occasions. The lugubrious, the pessimistic and the hysterical were the long suits of *The Moon*. VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS PROVIDE BOYS' GYMNASIUM How Indiana Afro-Americans Are Doing For themselves. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 21.—Owing to the efforts of Miss Adn B. Harris, principal of the Norwood school in Norwood, a suburb of this city, there will soon be provided a gymnasium, reading room and bath house for the young men of the community. In 1903 a boys' club was organized to improve their morals and manners, and met with such success, financially and morally, that Miss Harris decided to enlarge its scope. She issued and circulated promissory notes payable to the American students and they were subscribed to no generously by Afro-Americans that at the end of a year she was able to make a payment on valuable property in Norwood, consisting of five lots, a six-room house and a barn. The title to this property is vested in a board of trustees with the proviso that the institution shall always be devoted to the benefit of Afro-Americans. CHARlottte, N. C., July 15—Judge Shaw this afternoon brought to *x* summary end the trial of the alleged Anson county nymphs by sustaining the motion to quash the indictments. The excuse for the motion was improper venue, and it is backed up by intentional or inadvertent omissions in a recent enactment. The enactment fails to provide for trial outside of the county in which an officer is committed and to prosecute quinching of a page of puff. The man freed, eighteen in number, were put on trial for lynching a white man two months ago. Judge Shaw was at first bold and uncompromising, but seems to have been influenced by the hundreds of sympathizers who accompanied the accused men to court. Dr. Brooks Off to Europe. Rev. Dr. W. H. Brooks pastor of St. Mark's M. E. church, called July 19 for Europe on the lathrone, of the North German Lloyd Line. After visiting many of the principal cities of Europe, Dr. Brooks will return about September 1 LONDON, July 14—The editor of the British Review of Business recently conceived the excellent idea of finding out what literary influences the Labor members have undergone. One of these, Thomas Burt, said that the books which had most benefited him were Channing's essays on Milton and the autobiographies of Benjamin Franklin and Frederick Douglass, both self-taught under adverse circumstances. KICKED FOR SITTING BESIDE WHITE WOMAN ON STREET CAR Given $500 Damage Because He Was an "Old-time Darkey," GREENVILLE, 8, C July 21.—The plea of a dexterous lawyer that his client was "an old darkey of the slave-time type, not an impudent product of the modern regime," had enough weight with a jury here recently to get a verdict of $500 damages for Hudson Johnson, a 50-year-old Afro-American, who was kicked and beaten by a street car conductor for seating himself beside a white woman. Johnson was sued for $5,000. Score of Women Rescued From Water by Brave Afro-American. LA Crosse, Wla., July 19.—Bravery of the Afro-American roostabouts on the steamer Quincy, which sank off Trempeau last night, prevented the loss of at least a score of lives. Panic stricken women were carried by the deck hands to the nearest place of safety, a hundred yards from the wreck. When the boat listed many were thrown into the water and the Afro-American went to the rescue. Frantic men offered rewards to save their wives, and at a hotel here to day J. K. Humdone, a wealthy lumberman, made inquiries for a wagoner who had saved his wife that he might be him $1,000. No one claimed the reward. The officials of the line say no lives were lost, but indications are that there is no means of accounting accurately for the passengers. Peter White in 1917 years Old—Remembered War of 1812 CENTRALIA, Ill., July 21.—Peter White, an Afro-American, has reached his 10th birthday. He was born in Virginia, a slave, and remained a bondman. Peter White was a large part of the war of 1812, and recalls many events of that day. He says he has seen Harrison, Polk, Tyler and other great men of early times. HOODLUM AFRO-AMERICANS CAUSE DRAWING OF COLOR LINE Have Given Proprietors Protect for Closing Parks Against Us. CHICAGO, July 21.—The lovers of picnic outings among the Afro-American people are finding themselves boycotted by the owners of many of the best parks near Chicago. This line is being drawn in many places in which there was no question of color some time ago. It is only fair to state that this newly developed opposition is not wholly due to color prejudice per se, but to the Afro-American boodium element that has persistently held back the selfless effort every picnic party that leaves Chicago. It has come to pass that Sunday school picnics, church picnics and excursions composed of the most respectable people of the city are unable to protect themselves from the disreputables who find a way to secure tickets and go where they are not wanted. In almost every instance they have disgraced the innocent seekers of freshair and agvian pleasures by drunkenness, shootings and ransom exercises. Thus far it has been quite impossible to slip out of the city without the knowledge and presence of disturbers of the city and of fine young men who made it a point to give at least one outing each season for the benefit and pleasure of the best people, was compelled to disland because they found it impossible to protect themselves and their friends from being disgraced and the park privileges abused. SENT HIM TO PENTENTIARY ON GENERAL PRINCIPLES No, Proof Against Duncan, but Judge Sent Him Up Anyhow. ATLEY, Va., July 21.—The shooting which occurred last September at the hall of "The Rising Sons and Daughters of Joseph," in which Charles David was shot by someone and the charge was laid at the door of Edward Duncan, was aired in the Hanover circuit court this week. On Monday, the testimony was so conflicting that only one point could be proved—that someone had been shot. But as these shooting afrays are getting so numerous in Hanover, the jury concluded something must be done. Consequently, Duncan was given a short term in the penitentiary. Afro-American to Participate in State Fair in October. MONTOOMERY, Ala., July 21.—Dr. Booker T. Washington has been appointed to take charge of the Afro-American exhibit at the Alabama State fair to be hold in Montgomery in October. A separate building for the exhibit will be centrally located on the fair grounds, and the exhibit will show the educational and industrial progress made by the Afro-American in Alabama. JEFF DAVIS JUROR DEAD Special Correspondence of The Acm. RICHMOND, Va., July 23—Frederic Smith, the last but one of the thirteen Afro-Americans summoned in the panel of twenty-four from which he to be drawn twelve good men and true to serve as president of the Confederate States of America, for high treason against the United States Government, breathed his last in the City Home a few days ago. Mr. Smith was born of free-parents in the county of Chesterfield, Va., nearly ninety years ago. In early life he came to Richmond and went to work in one of the numerous townships in the county, the posseer of a fine voice and being of a commanding presence soon became a favorite in the factories among his fellow-laborers. Shortly after the war, when the late. Rev. John Jasper 'of "the sun do move" fame, founded the Sixth Mount Zion Baptist church. Mr. Smith was chosen director of the choir, a position he held for more than a year. He was several times married, his last wife surviving him. Apropos to the death of Mr. Smith, it may be mentioned that of the thirteen Afro-Americans who were empaneled on that famous jury, but one survives, and he is Lewis Lindsey. Mr. Lindsey was born a slave in Carroll县 county, Va., more than three quarters of a century ago, and raised in Richmond, Va., a boy, being hired out by his mother as a dining room servant. For many years he served in this capacity in Richmond's best private families. In a female boarding school in Richmond, while serving as a dining room servant, his quick wit and intelligence attracted the attention of a German professor of music, an instructor in the institution. He taught young Lindsey to read and write, although he was not a native of Richmond. He so do. He also taught him to play the violin and bugle. The latter accomplishment kept him off the breastworks when the war broke out, but sent him to the front as a bugler in a Confederate battalion of artillery. After the war he organized a brass and string band and became the leader of the aggregation. Drifting into politics, he was elected a delegate to the Confederate Congress and played an important part in that body, being a most florid speaker and a man of broad ideas. As a campaign speecher binder he was super, and his services were always in demand by his party cohorts from the days of Reconstruction down to the setting of the star of Mahoneism in Virginia. For a number of years he was custodian of the Federal building in Richmond. Late years he was a keeper of the home, where he was the care of his only surviving daughter. His wife and three other daughters, all of whom he educated, preceded him to the tomb. Another Afro-American on this historic panel was Albert Brooks, father of the Rev. Dr. Walter Henderson Brooks of Washington, D. C., of the late Robert Peel Brooks, the brilliant young Richmond attorney, and of the late Miss Alberta Brooks and Mrs. Lucy G. Lewis, former teachers in the Richmond public schools. Mr. Brooks was a successful liverman. Other jurymen were Murray E. Fox, a waiter; John Freeman, a plasterer; Joseph Cox, who was also a member of the Virginia Reconstruction Constitutional Convention, the keeper of a hotel and an ordinary and at one time employed in the Richmond Custom House; Landon Boyd, a bricklayer and also a Federal employee; Lewis Carter, a prominent Mason and barber; John B. Miller, a farmer, who served several terms in the Legislature of Virginia; Thomas Lucia, a carpenter and contractor; Andrew Lilly, a barber; James Turner, a caterer during slavery, but after the war a successful tobacco manufacturer and one of Richmond's most wealthy Afro-Americans; and Walter Sneed, a writer. Of the twelve who were drawn from the panel to try the prisoner, six were Afro-Americans, as follows: Lewis Lindsey, John B. Miller, Thomas Lucia, Walter Sneed, Joseph Cox, Lewis Carter, and John Freeman. As previously stated, of these thirteen Afro-Americans who served on this jury that gave them notoriety, all save Mr. Lindsey have gone the way of all flesh and have been gathered to their fathers. CARRY AGRICULTURAL LESSONS TO FARMERS IN THE FIELDS Tour of Tuskegee Institute Wagon Saves Workmen's Time. TUSKEGEE, Ala., July 21.—The Jesup Agricultural Wagon is now being taken through the country for the enlightenment and help of the farmers. One of the instructors of the agricultural department of Tuskegee Institute is in charge of the wagon, which is equipped with various kinds of farm implements, dairy machinery etc. The wagon is taken work and its equipment is explained. In this way the school's institute work is taken to the people in the country instead of them coming to the school and thus losing the time from their work. Better With Heat the Kettle LITTLE HILL, ARk., July 21—Mr. D. G. HILL, the Afro-American editor of The Monica Guide, has been given the contract for four years to haul the mail for the post office. Six new mail wagons have been purchased and seven new horses. BISSPON OF ZULULAND'S GRAVE CHARGES AGAINST BRITISH Says Loyal, Native Woman Robbed and Knocked. PETERMARTENUM, Natal, July 19.—The Government of Natal has published a letter from the Bishop of Zulukland alleging that the Cod. Royston's column early in July, looted kraals and carried off stock belonging to loyal natives, robbed them of their clothes and money and tore the clothes off women. The Bishop adds that certain natives found at a siding were brought into camp and their bodies thrown into the dungeon to rot. The Bishop characterizes the conduct of the column as a deep disgrace to Englishmen. Ool. Royston appointed a court of inquiry on the Bishop's letter, which found that the charge of robbery was not proved, and that five native prisoners were shot while they were trying to escape, but the court considered the shooting justifiable. 17-YEAR OLD BOY PATENTS GASOLINE MOTOR ROLLER SKATES Worked at Idea When Other Boys Were Leaving on Streets. KANSAS CITY, July 21.—A motor roller skate has been patented by Henry Beauford, an Afro-American boy seventeen years old, who lived at 1320 Pacific street. The boy first obtained a knowledge of motors and the machinery of motor cars when employed as a polisher in the Day Automobile plant located at Eleventh and Locust streets three years ago. "I always had a natural love of machinery," said Beauford. "I worked on the roller skate idea for a year. When the other boys I knew were loading on the streets I was working in a little shop I and another boy had fitted up. My patent cost me $65, which I made myself by working at odd jobs." The drawings which Beauford sent to the patent office call for a skate with two wheels five inches in diameter. Gasoline is the motive power, which is carried in a pint tank between the wheels. The motor is located at the back of the heel. The level of the motor connected with both wheels. Brakes and safety appliances are supplied for quick stopping. The inventor thinks that on good roads twenty miles an hour ought to be easily maintained on the skates. AFRO-AMERICAN REGIMENT MAKES GOOD AT ENCAMPMENT The Eighth of Illinois National Guard Trained by Officers. SPRINGFIELD, IL., July 21.—The Eighth Regiment of the Illinois National Guard, composed of Afro-Americans under Colonel John R. Marshall, has very credit- ably passed the rigid inspections and drills it has been subjected to at the entrench here this week. The Inspector General generously praised the care the Afro-Americans have given to their ac- countries and especially their work on the rifle range. The presence of the regiment has drawn throngs of its Afro-American admi- rors from the neighboring towns. Country People Tax Themselves $100 for New Schoolhouse. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., July 21.— An educational awakening among the Afro-American people is spreading over Macon county, in which Tuskegee Institute is located.

At a school rally recently held near here the people raised more than $100 in influences ranging from five to $10 for children. This is an illustration of how anxious the people are for school advantages and of their will ingress to help themselves as much as possible.

DRIVEN OUT OF PARISH White Mob Assails Afro- American District in Louisiana. Women Hustled Out in Night Attire—Will Repeat Raid Each Month. LAKE CHARLES, La., July 21.—This week a mob of 150 citizens, led by Sheriff D. J. Reid in person, swooped down upon the Afro-American district, roused 150 men and women out of their beds, drove them down to the railroad station and shipped them out of the parish. The woman were not even allowed to dress, but were hustled down the street in their night dresses and naked feet. Their farewere paid only to the parish line, where they were dumped off without ceremony. Prominent among the mob were members of the milia, who were in town on their way to Alexandria. The pretext of the mob was the murder of a constable by an Afro-American, who was executed for his crime on the day of the riot. His body was on the same train which bore the Afro-American out of town. The word had been passed around that the Afro-American district would be raided, and the mob was soon organised. House after house was visited, and the inmates, not even given time to dream, were taken out and turned over to a guard, while the rest went after more Afro-American. In one place it looked as if there would be serious trouble, for a woman refused to open the door, and when the door was forced open several pistols were leveled at the woman within. When she was searched, a huge 44-caliber Cork's revolver was found hidden in the folds of her dress. After a alight assistance she was induced to leave the house. When every house had been visited, the group was marched, under guard of pistols, down to a water tank about a mile from town, and here the southbound Southern passenger train was stopped by the Afro-American put a board and up he was searched, and he was found on him he was given anance to establish his identity, for the big employers of labor were the Afro-Americans, however, managed to escape and went into hiding in the woods, and many of them did not even take time to dress, for they feared that the mob was after them to kill them, instead of driving them out of town, and so frightened were some that two women fainted, and medical assistance had to be called to revive them. The older boys were acting in their capacity of citizens, but their zeal was none the less for that. It is probable that Lake Charles will be free from Afro-Americans for some time, for it is intended to drive them out once a month. PHIL WATERS RE-SELECTED COMMITTEEMAN-AT-LARGE Honor as Reward of Hard Work in Congressional Campaign. CHARLESTON, W. Va., July 20.—At the Republican State convention yesterday Hon. Philip H. Waters was re-elected committeeman—large. He had charge of the document room at Congressional headquarters, during the last Congressional campaign, and there were no complaints.

INDUSTRIAL COMMITTEE HEARS STATISTICAL REPORTS Largely Attend Meeting at Home of Dr. Schiefelin. The Committee for the Industrial Improvement of the Negro in New York met at the home of Dr. Jay; Schieffelin Wednesday evening, July 18. A surprisingly large number of members was present, taking into consideration that it was a hot midmummer night. Such an attendance is indicative of the earnestness of the commission. Reports from different subcommittees were received. A man employed in collecting statistics of the Afro-Americans in 19th and 36th streets reported what he had accomplished in the last three weeks. Mrs. Fernandez, who is making a similar investigation in 29th and 30th streets; likewise rendered her report. A finance committee was appointed to raise funds for the prosecution of the work of investigation and for publishing any answer to the question. After a session of nearly three hours, the committee adjourned to meet at the call of the chairman. White Woman Held for Murder.

Deputy Coroner Sellers hold Resiele Monhan, a white woman charged with inflicting the wound without ball for court. At the time of the inquest, the coroner was not reported to the coroner, as absurdly sent to the Philadelphia hospital from the Jefferson hospital. The case was brought to the attention of the police two weeks ago, when the Monhan woman was arrested for disorderly conduct. a 1 ay RE ere Paes ec TDS Me ree Le a ee oe ee ae \ Q Songs te Seve Thety ewes — r THEM MARRY Waarmeron, NO.

President Philip A. Payton, Jr., was in the chair. Mr. S. R. Scottron, the vice-president, spoke, explaining the purpose of the meeting, and was earnestly listened to. Counselor F. F. Giles of Brooklyn clearly and fully related the history of Mr. King's suit. He said that he had a suit of his own growing out of the visit to Far-Rockway based on the refusal of a druggist to sell himself and companions soda water. Mr. Summer H. Lark, a printer at Myrtle and Fulton street, Brooklyn, related his recent experience in being denied refreshments and food in Brooklyn. Mr. Lark has also sued, and the case comes up next September. Dr. William L. Bulkley told of some recent experiences of his of a not encouraging nature, emphasizing the fact that the refusal of accommodations to Afro-Americans in this city and vicinity is becoming quite common. He made an impassioned plea for funds and for the increase of spirit and determination on the part of the Afro-American people to fight their cases in the court until as an everywhere accorded with their drill rights. A contribution of $10 to the fund to be raised for this purpose. Mr. Payton gave $20. Mr. Frank H. Gilbert of Brooklyn gave $5 and others smaller sums, but none less than a dollar. The League is trying to raise $2,000 for use in similar cases, and to that end the following committee on finance was appointed to solicit funds: Samuel R. Scottron, chairman; George W. Allen, Frank H. Gilbert, Anthony McCarthy and E. H. Wilson. This committee will meet some time during the present week and proceed to send out an appeal to all Afro-American people of the city. Mr. Scottron says that he was much disappointed to note the absence of very many of those who are known to be leaders of the race here in New York. Mr. Gilchrist Stewart, Rev. George Fraser, Miller, Mr. George W. Allen, Mr. W. H. Butler and others raised the meeting to much enthusiasm by their impassioned appeals. Contributions may be sent to the treasurer, Anthony McCarthy, Tryon Row, New York city, or to any of the finance committee. A committee on by-laws was chosen as follows: Mr. S. R. Scottron, Mr. Wilford H. Smith; Dr. William L. Bulkley, Mr. Gilchrist Stewart and Mr. Frank H. Gilbert. PEACEFUL PKNCIC PARTY STONED BY WHITE HOODLUMS Unprovoked Amount Perpetrated Near Indianapolis. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 20.—Last Sunday night a band of white booblums attacked a party of respectable Afro-Americans who were on an outing at Riverside park and pelted them with brickbats and stones. The Afro-Americans were utterly unprepared for such an assault and were unarmed and had done nothing to provoke it. RUMOR OF MEET BETWEEN GANS AND BATTLING NELSON Mill Said to be Arranged for Next Fall in California. A story is going the rounds on Broad way to the effect that Joe Gans and Battling Nelson are practically matched for a fight limited to forty-five rounds, to take place at Colma, Cal., this fall. Of course this would mean a daylight contest on lines similar, to the one that saw Britt beaten down by the Dane. One hundred and thirty-three pounds ringside was mentioned as the weight the men would battle at. According to the report, Jimmy Coffroth will have the handling of the affair, and it is said that Coffroth and his partners are to pay a license fee of $2,000 to hold the battle. GANS DEFEATS HOLLY IN FAST TWENTY-ROUND BATTLE Spectators Autonished by Afro-American's Cleverness. NEATLE, Wush., July 24.-Joe Gans of Baltimore was given the decision over Dave Holly of Boston in the twentieth round of their fight at Pleasant Beach last night. There was a large attendance. Afro-American fighter weighed in at the limit, and came to the ringside in good condition. Gans had all the cleverness of his former fights, and those who watched the contest were frequently surprised by his marvellous ability to get out of tight places into which Holly had forced him. Holly was the aggressor in many of the rounds, and behind his blows was considerable force. Gana, however, showed the greatest cleverness. The fight was held at a point on the sound, opposite the city. In the crowd were a large number of prominent business men. Geocentric Legislature Takes Cue From Afro-American Schools. ATLANTA, Ga., July 20.—Last week the Georgia Legislature appropriated $100,000 for the agricultural education of the white boys of the State. The white educators are everywhere taking their cue from the industrial schools for Afro-Americans. The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text.

The summer night's festival and reunion of Knights Templar given by Ivanhoe Commandery, No. 5, at Sutber's Harlem River Park, and Casino on Friday evening last was a most enjoyable social success. Ivanhoe Commandery is composed of gentlemen of standing and integrity, who are courteous in their attention to the friends that appreciate their earnest endeavors to provide social entertainment in both seasons of the year. The affair Friday evening was up to the highest standard of pictures given this year, and was attended by a large gathering of ladies and gentlemen who passed the evening in dancing and other entertainment. The members of the various committees of the commandery appeared in full dress uniform and they are a fine looking set of men. The New Amsterdam orchestra furnished the music with a large orchestra. Williams, M. T. Newton tis, E. Phillips and James post-grand commanders taught to this command Hunter, Thomas H. W. Mewr, James E. Farrelias. The drill corps, which mous for its proficiency in his since its formation immediate command of Wright as drill master, of trophies won in conté the admiration bestowed the pride of this command. The pilgrimage of the Washington as the guest mandery, No. 1, on Septe looked forward to with and the assurance of the District of Columbia, arm of the Sir Knights. During an intermission the Ivanhoe drill corps gave an exhibition drill which was extremely pretty. The intricate manoeuvres were gone through quickly, accurately and in perfect time. This drill corps is entitled to much praise, and has now in its possession many beautiful prizes won in competition. They are now drilling diligently for the pilgrimage of the entire commandery to Washington D. C., at which time a beautiful prize will be given for the best drilled corps. In the future, it is safe to say, the friends of Ivanhoe Commandery will welcome the advance notices of their social affairs with real pleasure. Ivanbane Commandery, under; the jurisdiction of the grand commandery of the State of New York, was instituted in this city in the year 1877, under the jurisdiction of the State of Pennsylvania, with the following officers as its cabinet: Albert Wilson, eminent commander; Thomas H. Mann, generalissimo; James H. Lewis, captain general. James E. Edwards, prelate; Benjamin Myers, S. W. and Andrew Thompson, J. W. Under its standard are enrolled the names of some of the most prominent Masons of this section of the State and its membership is the largest of any of the subordinate commanderies of this jurisdiction. The following men have succeeded to the office of eminent commander: Sir. Thomas Mann, James H. Lewis, Horace Bailey, Elijah Wormale, Benjamin Myers, John C. Farrell, Owen Harris, Thomas H. Wright, Charles Plowden, M. L. Hunter, Edward Wormale, James E. Farrell, William Henderson, John Chatmond, Levi JACK JOHNSON TO FIGHT FERGUSON TWENTY ROUNDS Afro-American Heavyweight a Good Match for Berger. Sandy Ferguson of Chelsea and Jack Johnson, the Afro-American heavyweight, are to be matched in a few days to meet in a twenty-round bout. A peculiar feature of the proposed match is that two brothers are managers of the respective fighters. Hughey McLean is taking care of Ferguson's interests, while his brother Alex looks after Johnson. If Berger, who recently whipped Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, really wishes to take on some more heavyweights of real skill he can be accommodated by trying Jack Johnson, who has clearly shown himself entitled to serious consideration in this class. WILL PREVENT LYNCHING IF HE HAS TO FIRE WHOLE POLICE FORCE No Threatens Owensboro Mayor to Protect Afro-American. OWENSBORO, Ky., July 21.—There will be no lynching of the Afro-American Sylvester Baskette, to obtain whom a mob attacked the jail Monday, if Mayor O'Brien knows it. The mayor yesterday served notice that if Baskette is lynched he will fire every member of the police force from the chief down. Sheriff Hair says he will protect Baskette if he has to summon every man in Daviss county to assist. Baskette shot and wounded a police man. When brought here Sunday he was hustled into a carriage, which drove to the jail pursued by a crowd of 300. Revenge Taken on Filipino Rebels for Recent Revenge. MANILA, July 24.—A primitive expedition, consisting of a detachment of the Twenty-fourth Afro-American infants and a company of native constabulary, was attacked to-day by a horse of Pula-janes numbering several hundreds while on the trail between the towns of Tolosan and Damani, island of Leyte, and a desperate battle took place, resulting in the rout of the fanatics with a loss of fifty killed and more than sixty wounded, while on our side only one sergeant of the constabulary was wounded. Williams, M. T. Newton, W. C. II. Curtis, E. Phillips and James McCadden. The past-grand commanders of this State attached to this commandery are: M. L. Hunter, Thomas H. Wright, Benjamin Myers, James E. Farrell, Eugene Phillips. The drill corps, which has become famous for its proficiency in Templar tactics, has since its formation been under the immediate command of Sir Tbomas H. Wright as drill master, and its collection of trophies won in contests is worthy of the admiration bestowed on them and is the pride of this commandery. The pilgrimage of the commandery to Washington as the guest of Sifon commander on December 2. is being looked forward to with enthusiasm and the assurance of the fraternity of the District of Columbia are that the comforts of the Sir Knights and their friends will be amply cared for. The time of departure and rate will be announced later. The members of the commandment are James Arnold, James N. Anderson, E. N. Austin, James E. Brown, S. Banks, John Clarmond, W. Coles, J.

VINCENT STOWWAYS Three Afro-Americans Cause Lots of Trouble in Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA, July 25.—The three Afro-Americans who stowed themselves away on the steamship Eros Castle, which arrived at this port several days ago, are causing a great deal of trouble to the ship-owners. The men have been ordered back to St. Viment, from which place they came, by the Immigration Commissioner. A prison must be obtained for them. None in this city is available, and Director Potter refuses to rent one for three weeks, at which time another boat suits U. S. Commissioner Craig could not confine the man, who were released from Moyamensing this morning. They are being watched by the ship's agents. CASE OF SENATOR PENROSE'S BODYGUARD IS CONTINUED Woman Not Able to Appear Against Him—Penrose Not in Court. PHILADELPHIA, July 25.—Senator Penrose's valet, Ernest Hitchens, was assigned before Magistrate Wrigley, at the Park and Lehigh avenue station house Saturday morning to explain why he stabbed Juanita Valerez last week. The bodyguard and political secretary of the United States Senator looked somewhat the worse for wear, as there were still patches of court plaster on his face to show what Juanita had done to him in the quarrel at the picnic at Washington Park last week. Because the woman was unable to appear Magistrate Wrigley continued the hearing. The Senator did not accompany his man to the hearing. Dr. Washington at Chautauqua. CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y., July 23.—Dr. Booker T. Washington spoke on Sunday on "Education" to over 1,800 people, many of whom were Southerners. He pleaded with them to treat the Afro-American people on Christian principles. From The St. Paul (Milton) Appeal.

To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE: It is getting now to be nearly the season when our persistent and constant begins in the interest of the race, Trotter, Morgan and Scott, will begin to pass around the hat among hotel waiters, washerwomen and every other class of persons whom they can reach, for money to pay their way to some meeting. The public in Boston is getting very tired of this hattressing business on these little imagination occasion when these three individuals seem to think it a part of their duty to take a trip to some part of the country for which the good people of Boston must pay. Our Boston citizens are beginning to appreciate more and more the fact that they will be far better off if they concentrate some of their interest and money in helping conditions right here in Boston. They are learning that if they want to help forward the interest of the race, one of the best ways to do it is to help themselves. Your readers will recall that you have not heard much lately of Rev. Byron Gunner, of Newport. Rev. Mr. Gunner was so interested in the salvation of the poor brethren in the South that it seems he forgot to pay his debts—to such an extent that his church found it convenient to receive his realism.

SEE INE ER: POETS: BRE: 8S sae. ae States; that fs, ten million people withou political friends or party standing. I: saying this we-do not wish to be under stood as declaring that the Afro-Amerioa people have not many political friends we mean that these are po few and scat tered that they exercise no decisive inte ence in bebalf of the Afro-American peo we. “ Indeed, there are great and goo% men In all of the States who are as stanct frienda of the, Afro-American people a any race could wish to have. But then friends have not been auficiontly numger ous and tofluentinl to stay the reaction against the race which wet im immediately after the war aid has contioucd through the Reconstruction perlod to the present time, whed it haw reached @ condition ip which the Afro-American people have no honorable place in the civil aid political life of any of the original slave Staten. ‘This fact was brought out in painful relict during the last seeaion of Congress, when during the long and azrimonious dis- cumion of the Railway Rate bill not a man in the Senate or the House of Rep- Tenentatives was faithful and courageous enough to wtate the Afro-American's case In equity and to insiat that he bave jas- ‘tice done him by cominon carriers. There wena a tacit acceptance of the separate car nye principle enforced by ali of the South- or States, except West Virginia—e more viclous principle then any other which han crept into the legislation of the Seater; we mean the principle of sere ration based on color. In the matter of transportation by Ian: and water this enforced segregation “of race based upon race and color is x malicious and degrad- ing violation of the law of contract, and uot only does not apply to any other body of our citizenship but would not be tol- erated hy apy other body. Senator For aker admitted, in discussing the Warner amendment, when hectored by a Southern Senatorinl bravo, that he had 0 inten- tion of interfering with the sepafate car laws of the Southern States, thus ac koowledxing the justnems and fairness of thove lawn, when by the atore of the case they can be neither just nor fair. It remained for Senator Tiliman of South Carolina to make « grandstand play of interest In the Afro-American people and 0 declare with simulated joy that he ould Insist that ‘the’ railroads be com- plied to “treat our nigcerw fairly." A iampionrbip like that Scontor Tillman at up was digcuntingly coarse and brutal —in keeping with the character and repo ation of the man, of which lie seem i- apable of ridding himeelt.

It does not ‘seem to us that the Afro- American people can always occupy the low position in politics that they do now.

New Orleans School Teachers. ‘The school authoriticn of New Orleans decided recently to dinplace the Afro- American teachers with white ones, but after prayerful and other conniderations they changed their-minds, and Afro-Amér- ican teachers will continue .to. be em ployed. This ix as it should be. The al- leged gtownd for the original action was ntated to be inefficiency of the teaching body, but even if true the cause would lie in the echoo! authorities who bare the relection of teacher in charge, tnd who will have no trouble whatever in getting the best there ie among the more than 30,000 Afro-American tencherm of the country if they will take the trouble to bunt them out and pay them salaries that are worth while. ‘The Afro-American school-teaching body of the country ‘at large bas de- eloped splendid ‘standard of scholar ship and high character, and this in the face of the fact that even in the large enters of the Sonth they are paid lem ban white teachers doing the same clas of work.

The elder Berestoff, in his side, although recognising in his neighbor a certain extravagance (or, as he termed it, English felly), was perfectly ready to admit that he possessed any excellent qualities, as, for example, is rare tact. Gregory Ivanovitch was only related to Count Pronaky, a man distinction and of great influence. The court could be of great service to Alexel, and Mouronsky (so thought Ivan Petrotsch) would doubtless rejoice to see his daughter marry so advantageously. By at least constantly dwelling on this idea, he two old men came at last to communicate their thoughts to one another, they embraced each other, both promiscuously, so their best to arrange the matter, if they immediately set to two woe as he owes me.

Time 'll settle everything." van Petrovitch was no less uneasy at the success of his designs. That no evening he summoned his son into cabinet, lit his pipe, and, after a long me, said: JOLE AND JOHN HEIR NEWEST HIT JOLE AND JOHNSON TO STAR IN Young Authors Produce Another Musical Comedy. All Afro-Americans—First Night August 27 at Cumber- On August 27 Cole and Johnson will launch their new musical comedy, "The Shoo-Fly Regiment," at Cumberland, Md. This is not a maiden venture, for these young men have already produced successful plays. The "Trip to Countown" lived on the stage for four years. "The Cannibal King" and "Black Patt's Troubadours" were popular. Cole and Johnson wrote the music for "Humpty Dumpty," which appeared on Broadway last year, and for "Nancy Brown," in which May Irwin starred for several seasons all over the United States. Besides, they have written sketches for many of the stars. Their songs are sold all over the world, and have, especially "Under the Bamboo Tree," brought them very large profits. For the past five years Cole and Johnson have been one of the most emphatic hits of the vaudeville stage with their high-class singing and playing, which appeals to the better class of theater-goers. Although they are spoken of collectively, it should be understood that they have different mental equipments and are in all respects separate persons. Johnson is a delightful baritone vocalist and accomplished pianist, while Cole is one of the cleverest of Afro-American character comedians. The musical comedy in which they will star next year embodies an entirely new idea. The cast comprises the host, Afro-American talent before the public, and will be the first all-star cast ever presented in an attraction of this kind. Mr. Johnson wrote the music, which is of a high order but thoroughly in keeping with the spirit of the play. The lyrics were in part written by Hon. James W. Johnson, the newly appointed United States Consul to Puerto Cabello, Ven., and all of the songs of the piece are written to fit the character that will render them. Mr. Cole is responsible for the book of the play. Among the players who are supporting fours. Cole and Johnson are such well-known names as that of Mr. Tom Brown, he enjoys the distinction of being America's greatest Afro-American Protean Art and who, it is promised, in this play present a new line of work; the veneer Sam Lucas, who is perhaps the widely known Afro-American on the --- (Continued) ac- ber- rom- si- cl- re- petro- into ich alth- sent, his his as per- m ed apple, was man The exel, petro- his By idea, "Well, Alecha, what do you think about doing? You have not told anything for a long time about the military service. Or has the Humana uniform lost its charm for you?" "No, father," replied Alexel respectfully; "but I see that you do not like the idea of my entering the Humana, and it is my duty to obey you." "Good," replied Ivan Petrovitch; "I see that you are an obedient son; that is very consoling to me. On my stoff, I do not wish to compel you; I do not want to force you to enter at once, into the civil service, but in the meanwhile, I intend you to get married." "To whom, father?" asked Alexel in astonishment. "To Lizaveta Gregorievna Mouromsky," replied Ivan Petrovitch. "She is a charming bride, is she not?" "Father, I have not thought of marriage yet." "You have not thought of it, and therefore I have thought of it for you." "As you please, but I do not care for Liza Mouromakis in the least." "You will get to like her afterwards. Love comes with time." "I do not feel capable of making her happy." "Do not distress yourself about making her happy. What? Is this how you respect your father's wish? Very well!" "As you please. I do not wish to marry, and I will not marry." "You will marry, or I will curse you; and as for my possessions, as true as God is holy, I will sell them and squander the money, and not leave you a farthing. I will give you three days to think about the matter; and in the meantime, don't show yourself in my sight." Alexei knew that, when his father once took an idea into his head, a nail even would not drive it out, as Tarsa Skotinini says in the comedy. But Alexei took after his father, and was just as headstrong as he was. He went to his room and began to reflect upon the limits of paternal authority. Then his thoughts reverted to Lizaveta Gregorieanna, to his INSON TO STAR “THE SHOO-F THE MISSING MEN WERE RECOVERED FROM THE MISSING MEN stage; Bob A. Kelley, who will give one of those delightful old Afro-American gentlemen he has made such an enviable reputation playing; and Mr. Thoo Pankey, who will have a new character to portray. Among the ladies are Miss Ino Clough, whom Cole and Johnson induced to come over from England to play a part with the company; Miss Anna Cook, the sweet Southern soprano; Miss Dill and Mine, Williams, Miss Siron Navarro, who is perhaps the only Afro-American woman who has mastered the difficult art of too dancing, will arrange the dances as well as display her art with the company. The ensemble is made up of the best possible artists. Mosses, A. A. Talbort, Andrew Tribble and Matt Marshall, Miss Nettie Glenn and Fanny Wise, and a chorus of forty selected voices, under the direction of Mr. James Europe, complete the company. The scenic and costume accessories will be by the best artists, and a lavish production with every attention to detail will be given. "The Shoo-Fly Regiment" is backed by Selville B. Raymond, who has also been backing Williams and Walter. It will probably be seen on Broadway this season, and will ultimately spake a tour of all the large cities. COLE AND JOHNSON. he was summoned over to the house, gait and bad of all to Ahoulae. But the first time he saw clearly that he was presumably in love with her; the romantic idea of marrying a pregnant girl and of living by the labor of their hands came into his head, and the more he thought of such a decisive step, the more reasonable did it seem to him. For some time the interviews in the wood had ceased on account of the rainy weather. He wrote to Ahoulae a letter in his most legible handwriting, informing her of the misfortune that threatened them, and offering her his hand. He took the letter at once to the post-office in the wood, and then went to bed, well satisfied with himself. The next day Alexei, still firm in his resolution, rode over early in the morning to visit Moorosmsky, in order to explain matters frankly to him. He hoped to excite his generosity and win him over to his side. "Is Gregory Ivanovitch at 'home?' asked he, 'stopping his horse in front of the stene of the Prilontchina mansion. "No! replied the servant; "Gregory Iranovitch rode out early this morning, and has not returned." "How annoying!" thought Alexei. "Is Lizaveta Gregorlevna at home, then? he asked. "Yes, sir." Alexei sprang from his horse, gave the reins to the lackey, and entered without being announced. "Everything is now going to be decided," thought he, directing his steps toward the parlor: "I will explain everything to Lizaveta herself." He entered, and then stood still as if petrified! Liza, no Akoulina, dear, dark-haired Akouilina, no longer in a serenade, but in a white morning robe, was sitting in front of the window, reading his letter; she was so occupied that she had not heard him enter. Alexei could not restrain an exclamation of joy. Liza arted, raised her head, uttered a cry, and wished to fly from the room. But he threw himself before her and held her back. Liza endeavored to liberate herself from his grasp. "Mais laissez-moi, dono, Monocuriel" "Mais ete-cous foul" she said, twisting herself around. "Akoulina! my dear Akoulina!" he repeated, kissing her hand. Miss Jackson, a witness of this scene, knew not what to think of it. At that moment the door opened, and Gregory Ivanovitch entered the room. "Ah! ah!" said Mouromsky: "but it seems that you have already arranged matters between you." The reader will spare me the unncease sary obligation of describing the denouement. IN FLY REGIMENT" JOHNSON. RANSON AND BENTLEY, A PAIR. Laughable Contrast Between Preaching North and Practice South. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE: People of this city have been interested in watching the discussion in connection with the Ransom case. It is not my object, however, to discuss that gentleman's various activities, as he is well known in this city—in fact, too well known—but simply to call attention to a similar case, that of a gentleman here who went South some months ago. Dr. Ransom ended his Boston speech, if we mistake not, with the famous words "Give me liberty or give me death." When he had an opportunity to choose in Tennessee between liberty and death, he meekly told two white men who ordered him out of the Pullman car that he preferred liberty. It will be recalled that some months ago Dr. Bentley, a prominent mover of the Niagaraites, went to St. Louis as a member of the National Dental Association, where he was invited, as was his right, to the usual banquet. But good Dr. Bentley, hearing that some of the white Southern members objected to his attending the banquet, quietly folded his tent and came back to Chicago, deciding that it was much safer to remain in Chicago advising the Southern brethren to give up their lives than to risk following this advice himself. Droocorm, Chicago July 19, 1808. The End FACING EXTINCTION? Roosevelt's Promised Retirement Causes Forebodings. There are unmistakable signs that the process of party disintegration and re-alignment, of which we have had more examples in the United States is once advanced in the United Kingdom. Once more, as in 1823 and 1864, a party's culminating triumph has been followed by symptoms of swifts decay and dissolution. Events will soon determine whether the Republican party is destined, like the Jeffersonian party in 1824, or the Democratic party in 1860, to be split into fragments, or, like the Federalist party and the Whig party, to become utterly extinct. Experience has shown that party government is necessary to the working of representative institutions; but, of course, it does not follow that a given party may not outlive its usefulness. When that time comes, and the fig tree is seen to be irreparably barren, the inerable oil is uttered from the ballot box: "Cut it down Why cumberb it the ground?" The history of the United States under the Constitution is strewn with the wrecks of political organizations once full of vitality and promise. It would have seemed incredible to Alexander Hamilton on his deathbed had he been told that the Federalist party, which had launched the national Government, which had lost the last Presidential contest by only eight electoral votes, and would but for Hamilton himself have, defeated Jefferson in the House of Representatives, would in that year (1804) be able to muster only about a twelfth of the electoral votes for its candidate, and sixteen years later would be impotent to carry a single State. How could Jefferson, seeing the party created by himself, exalted to the pinnacle of victory when in 1830 the last member of the Virginia dynasty got every electoral vote but one, conceive or believe that within four years that party would be rent into factions pursuing irreconcilable aims and rancorous hostile to each other? How could it have been possible for Henry Clay, who was to be so long the inspiration and the strength of the Whig party, when he beheld it sweep the country in 1840 by a majority of 174 electoral votes, to foresee that it would hold together but little more than a decade, and that within a quarter of a century it would have become a memory? How was it possible for Democrats in 1852. When Hankers and Barnburners combined to bear Franklin Pierce to the White House by the astounding majority of 212 electoral votes, to imagine that within two years their party would be so shattered by the Nebraska bill that its implacable sections would in 1800 hold two national conventions and put forward two rival candidates? Yet what Hamilton, or Jefferson, or Henry Clay, or Franklin Pierce could not have foretold at the dates named would have been patient to every onlooker a few years later. As history never repeats itself precisely we cannot expect to find an exact analogue to the existing situation in any of the conditions to which we have re- SAYS SHE IS HEARN'S WIFE Left Him After Three Years Because of His Morose Temperament. CINCINNATI, O., July 21.—Mrs. Aletha Foley, an Afro-American woman of 656 Kenyon avenue, igniting preparations to sue for a widow's interest in the estate of the late Lafcadio Hearn, novelist and student of Oriental mysticism, who died in Tokio, Japan, on September 26, 1804, leaving a Japanese widow and children. A New York firm, of lawyers is engaged in an investigation to determine the value of royalties on Hearn's novels and books which were published by eastern firms. Mrs. Foley, as she is known, although she declares she is Mrs. Lafcadio Hearn, is 35 years of age, and was married, she says, to Hearn in this city June 14, 1874. Hearn was then engaged in newspaper work in Cincinnati and was noted as a young man of many marked peculiarities. work in Cincinnati and was noted as a young man of many marked peculiarities. The woman was of striking appearance. Hearn's friends knew that he was fascinated with her. She says that she left him in 1877 because of his morose and moody temperament, but that they were never divorced. He left Cincinnati and three years later she was informed he had died in New Orleans. She secured what she considered documentary-proof of his death, according to her story, and married again. Later she learned Hearn was still alive, and left her second husband. The records of her marriage to Hearn were destroyed in the courthouse fire of 1854. The woman was born in slavery near Mayville, Ky. In talking about her purported marriage to Hearn and telling of her own life, Mrs. Foley said: "Hearn was boarding with a, family where I had emplaced as a cook. He often talked to me of the hard time he had in life an secretary for the librarian of the public library. He sympathized with me for having been born in slayery—said he felt like a slave himself. "I hesitated about marrying him. I told him his friends would desert him if he married me. He insisted, and the ceremony was performed by the Rev. John King, a colored Epicopal minister. "One of his old friends, now an inmate of an old men's, home, has letters he wrote in which he refers to me as his wife. "He was gloomy, despondent, dreamy, and mullen at times, and full of whims. If I could have stood it I would have lived with him till he died." ferred. There is, however, almost as sharp a difference to day between those Republicans who accept for their leader Senator La Follette, of Wisconsin, and Governor Cummins, of Iowa, and those whose accredited spokesmen are Senator Spooner and Senator Aldrich as there was between "Conscience Whig" and "Ostert Whig," or between those Democrats who advocated and those opposed, with relevance the repeal of the Missouri Compromise. On the other hand, the Republicans are still held together by the power of magnus individuality, as the Whigs were, 1852. It unquestionably true that Theodore Roosevelt has come, to perniply, as Henry Clay personified, the energies and the hopes of his political organization. Such a process of incarnation has its dangers. When Henry Clay died the country recognized that the Whig party had been evicerated. Its vitals were gone. Men said to one another at Clay's funeral: "Time was that when the brains were out the man would die." The Republican party will be lucky if the prospects of Mr. Roosevelt's early retirement from public life do not excite similar forebodings. It is certain that if we look at States which used to be accounted strongholds of one party or another, we encounter portents of party disintegration such as were witnessed in 1854. Missouri was wrenched from the Democratic column in 1904. On the other side, Ohio chose last year a Democratic, Georgian, and even Pennsylvania elected a Democratic State Treasurer. In the last armed State this year, Democrats and Republican reformers have united upon a ticket which promises to be successful. Even in New Jersey, the populous counties of Hudson and Essex are honeycombed with revolt against the regular Republican organization. In the Empire Commonwealth, nobody knows who will get the Republican nomination for the Government, and no wise man wants it. The only kind of peace attentions are the followers of Higinis, Odell and Platt is the kind preached by Jomb to Abner when he drove his knife under the fifth rib. Besides, so long as Theodore Roosevelt stands aloof from the contest, who knows how much substance there is left to the Republican party? There are close observers in the city and up-State who allege that the Heart propaganda has eaten deep into its bowels. If we try, on the other hand, to forecast the course of the Democratic party in this State we find ourselves equally at sea. The old parties are smitten with a wasting ulmily. All can see the disease; but where is the physician? There is no doubt that from the wetter of discord and mutiny a new political order will ultimately be evolved. But shall we have long to wait for it, as we waited when parties broke up in 1854? Or will it come quickly and declaely, as it might if Democrats should put forward a lender possessed of Roosevelt's vitalizing personality? While in Cincinnati Hearn became engaged in newspaper work and developed into a writer of note. He reported several mysterious murders, writing stories so weird and uncanny that they attracted much attention. Mrs. Foley will not reveal the names of the lawyers who are handling the New York end of the case. The only assures they could reach in this country would be the royalties paid on Hearn's works. After the poet of mysticism located in Japan he adopted the dress, customs, and philosophy of that country and married a Japanese woman. THE HUMORIST.

On Tuesday the Boyle Giants defeated the Cuban Stars by 7 to 1 in sharply played games. The Quaker Giants are the best Afro-American team now playing ball.

Roberts, a famous English chemist, who has made a study of the scalp of colored people for the past 30 years, and who, after much time and experience, has prepared this great tonic for the colored people. This chemist says that his experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people requires a special treatment and after laboring and testing these many years he has discovered the greatest REMEDY the WORLD has ever known for the HAIR of colored people. KINK-INE will make the hair GROW from one to three inches per month, if the directions and instructions are carefully followed out. We have many cases on record where the above results have been obtained, and we do not hesitate when we make these claims. KINK-INE is the only safe preparation in the world that is guaranteed to make the hair straight and make dry hair smooth and stop it from breaking off and falling out; takes out all the kinks and knots, curses dandruff, makes the hair soft and silky, and by nourishing the roots gives it new life and vigor, restoring it to natural color. Read what Miss Elizabeth Jones of Chicago says of KINK-INE: "My hair was not more than three inches long when I commenced to use Kink-ine, six months ago. I have used it steadily since that date and it has grown on an average of two inches each month and it is now more than fifteen inches long. Bealdes, my hair has become almost straight and I fully believe by the end of the year I will have the most beautiful head of hair of any colored lady in the world."

Carter, bachelor of Mr. and Mrs. Graham H. Carter, arrived in this city from Clarka- lton, Tennessee, on Monday morning of this week to remain until September. Miss Carter is principal of the White School, and she has been doing mission work for the past two years under the auspices of the Women's Baptist Home Mission Society of Chicago. Before going to Clarkville, Miss Carter conducted a mission here and under her care a large number of child- ren whom she gathered from among the poor and neglected in Hudson avenue, Chicago. Her personal interest, and singular direction to such a cause soon attracted wide attention, so much so that when the Women's Baptist Home Mission Society of Chicago was in search of someone who was capable and willing to undertake the work in Clarkville, they extended a car to Miss Carter. Here, she grated. Miss Carter received her early Christian training in the Concord Baptist church Sunday school and Young People's ```markdown ``` MIS8 REBECCA J. CARTER. association. To this one mission in Clarkville seven others in various parts of the State have been added, and those have been trained at Clarkville, by Miss Carter. There are 306 children at the White Rose Mission kept busily engaged in various trades throughout the year. The girls are taught to sew, make tents, cook, wash and iron their own clothes and to do domestic science work. The girls are trained at the articles for themselves and the mission. There is also a kindergarten attached to the school for the smaller children and a Mothers' Day Nursery-and Bible training classes for the women. About a year ago Mrs. Mary B. La Motte of this city joined Miss Carter in the work at Clarkville and has been serving the service to the cause. Her work has been principally out on the field, and she is by making a tour of the States, starting h Kentucky and on through Illinois, lo and other Western States. Miss Carter reports many conversions and a higher conception of life by the people on account of the training which they have received. She states that they have been very kind to her and have given of their means liberally for the support of the mission. At this season of the year much interest is manifested in women's club work. It is the season of annual meetings and the presidents and secretaries of the vari- ties of the busy making of the ord- ord of work activities of the entire field. Notable among the many clubs in Brooklyn belonging to the North- eastern Federation of Women's Clubs, is the Auxilium club, which has a substantial membership of women who have made a contribution to the girls of that borough and have striven to aid them in every possible way. The moral and educational phase of their environment has received especial attention and much effective work with good results held twice a month, one for business and the other for literary and social enjoyment. For two successive years this club has given liberal financial aid to a worthy young woman student at Hartshorn Memorial College at Richmond, VA., who graduated from the club and meetings of the club are always well ided and its members are zealous and staking in their work. At the last ```markdown ``` MRS. LOTTIE HENDERSON. sending of the club, which was held at the residence of Mrs. M. J. Zeno, on the evening of July 18, delegates were selected to attend the eleventh annual convention of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs which meets in Providence, R. J., on Wednesday, August 15. They are Mrs. Lottie Henderson, the efficient president of the club, and Mrs. Harriet L. Brown, Mrs. Henderson, whose cut apples were used for the club for two terms, and under her able handwork. It has kept pace with the best methods of women's club activity and stimulated the membership and increased its interest in all matters pertaining to their field of labor. Besides the work of the Anniversary Club, Mrs. Henderson, seeing that a telephone in Dr. W. T. Dixon's residence would be of an advantage convenient to the public, she publicized the services both day and night in the interest of the sick, the dying and the bearded, became so much interested that she organized last fall a club to be known as the "Telephone Club" and on December 19 installed in his residence at 100 Adelphi street a telephone, by which the parish public could chat with the public desiring services might reach him immediately. This club pays all the expenses of the 'phone. The officers of the Auxilium club are: Mrs. Lottie Henderson, president; Mrs. John T. Brown, president; Mrs. Faye Brown, president; Mrs. Hugh Shelton Newton, treasurer, and Mrs. II. W. Brown, secretary. The Telephone club is officered by Mrs. Henderson, as president; Mrs. Alice B. Scott, as president; Mrs. Miss Drewton, secretaries, and Mrs. Elizabeth Hardy, treasurer. This club numbers forty-eight active members. Dr. William T. Dixon, who has been spending the past two weeks in the Catakill Mountains and at Newport, R. I. returned to the city last Saturday and filled his pulpit at the Concord Baptist church Sunday. The Christian Endeavor held its meeting at 6:30 as usual. On Monday evening the attended the important business which will be finally passed upon by the church next Monday night. The Younge People's meeting on Tuesday evening, was largely attended and was addressed by Misa Rebecca J. Carter, who has just returned from Clarksville, Tenn. The announcement that Dr. A. R. Cooper of the Bridge street church would be the morning services preach upon the坛庙, the audience, which hung upon the preachers' words as he vividly described the scenery and movements attending the impotent man who had lain by the pool for 38 years with no results. The congregation conducted the Sunday school with her usual vigor and earnestness. The church will soon arrange a welcome reception to Dr. Cooper as their new pastor. Mrs. Charles H. Vann has returned from the hospital and is specially recovering from the stroke. A retainer of the Mohawk for two years is now in charge for the summer. Francis Allen Stewart, who died at the Flushing hospital on Saturday, July 14 was born in Brooklyn, October 3d, 1838. He was the son of Allen Stewart and Jane Ann Stewart. Allen Stewart was an active worker in the Underground Railroad, a famed friend settled in Flatbush, where he immediately commenced to help secrete the rugway slaves; and his house was one of the stations of the Underground Railroad. Charles B. Ray, William Still, Albro Lyons and other members of the Underground Railroad placed the utmost confession the courage and aid of Allen Stewart to the authorities. A safe passage through Brooklyn, Francis A. Stewart was married to Charlotte A. Winder, of Nassau, B. W. I., on September 6, 1830. He was a good and faithful husband, and in the past 46 years he had been employed in only six places and had been out of employment only two weeks. He was a devoted father to Mr. Christopher Moler, the sugar refiner, whom he was with for 36 years. Mr. Stewart was charter member of the FRANCIS ALLEN STEWART. Conchmen's Union League Society of Manhattan, which is financially one of the strongest benevolent organizations in the city. He had been a member of the Abyssinian Baptist church for 37 years, which he converted with the Rev. William Spellman was pastor. The funeral services took place from his late residence, 114 Congress avenue, Flushing, on Tuesday, July 17. Rev. Charles S. Morris, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist church, preached in the congregation and was awarded in the honoration by Rev William Spellman. The text selected by Rev. Dr. Morris was "Thou hast been faithful over a few thin. I will make the ruler over many." His address was forceful, curious, and affecting. The Abyssinian Baptist church, the choirmaster Page sang several of the favorite hymns of the deceased. The dwelling was unable to hold the many friends that attended the service. There were many beautiful floral offerings. The green cemeteries were green cemeteries. He leaves a widow, one cousin and many friends to mourn his loss. At the Bethany Baptist church on Vanderbilt avenue Dr. J. Francis Blair orchated at both services to attentive audiences. Superintendent Jones presided at the session of the Sunday school and expressed some excellent thoughts upon the lesson. The usual weekly meetings of the Sunday school left early Monday morning for Philadelphia, where he addressed the Minister's Conference and delivered a powerful speech at a mass meeting in the evening. The Rose of Sharon club of this church, which was organized by Mrs. Blair last February, presented a handome bookcase to Rev. Blair after the regular prayer meeting last Friday night. Services at the Holy Trinity Baptist church, Rev. S. W. Timma pastor, were very interesting. The Sunday school, led by superintendent Royster, is working hard to organize a North Bench on August 2 a success. The B. Y. P. U. and the weekly exposition of the Sunday school lesson will continue during the summer. Mrs. N. Barnett Dodson, accompanied by her four children and a party of eight young ladies from Newark, N. J., will leave for their former home, Boydton, Va., on a visit to relatives and friends, to be gone until September 10. On Sunday at the Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A. Mr. N. B. Dodson, the wide-basket superintendent of the Concord Baptist superintendent, gave a helpful talk on "Templehill," a helpful Rev. Charles Acworth of New York city was present and spoke of the work he was engaged in for the prisoners in that city. Mr. T. H. Gilbert spoke encouragingly. The social song service is an inspiration. The Williams, one of the new members, will next Sunday Mr. W. W. Passage will give an address on "Socialism and Christianity." The first afternoon and evening inductible picnic of the Mothers Day Nursery was held at Ulmer Park on Friday of last week and was an encouraging success in attendance, general public interest and finances. Several features added to the event and included an opportunity or more people who attended. The ball game in the afternoon between the Marathon Athletic Club of this borough and the Circle Field Club of Manhattan afforded much amusement. The Marathon won by a score of five to two. There are no awards and no awards of the Alpha Physical Culture Club and the St. Christopher Athletic Club of Manhattan in running, high jumping and tug-of-war. The crowd that gathered in the park and pavilion in the evening was a dilemma to the officers of this worthy organization, the officers that they were amply repaid for the efforts-put forth. The Mother's Day Nursery was organized November 29th, 1904, for the purpose of caring for the large number of children of Afro-American parents have no one with whom to leave them while they follow their daily occupations—thus leaving the little ones to the exposure of the worst environment The Mothers' Day Nursery is located: at the bought-by street the rental of this building, 600 feet away was opened for the children in September, 1905, and since that time has cared for over 2,500 children. This work is mainly supported by voluntary contributions. Although primarily established for Afro-American children, no national organization exists for many white children in the nursery as Afro-American, and there have been days when none but white children were brought. At the present time the management find themselves much in need of funds to on their work. Contributions are made by the nursery, Mrs H. A. Moore, 524 Macon street. Donations of provisions, fuel and other useful articles may be sent directly to the nursery. 129 Willoughby street, all of which will be thankfully received and acknowledged. The office is Mrs K. A. Moore, vice-president. Mrs H. A. Moore, treasurer; Mrs M. A. James, second vice-resident; Mrs M. E. Butler, financial secretary; Miss Julia C. Dixon, corresponding secretary. Those in direct contact with the nursery, Mrs M. E. Butler, Mr W. M. Simma, C. V. Norman, C. Young, George Williams, I. F. Norman and Prof. J. Huffman Woods. Mrs. Mary F. Gale of 182 Penn street has left the city for an extended pleasure trip. Mrs. Gale will visit Ansonia and Great Neck. After her return to Brooklyn she will go to Bethlehem, Pa. Mrs. Tillie Williams of 29 Monroe street, Albany, has been the guest of her sister, Madame M. E. Douge of 347 Cumberland street, for ten days and is now on her way to Atlantic City. On Friday evening Miss Augusta R. Accoe entertained a number of her friends in honor of Miss Sadie Brooks, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. M. C. Brooks of Philadelphia, at her residence, 155 Carlton avenue. The evening was spent in intermission and an impromptu program consisting of littering, dancing and nurturing mental poles. Among those present were: Misses S. Brooks, E. Bonsack, B. C. Hall, M. atobinson, F. C. Curry, L. Brown, A. Kearney, C. Bolden, Nellie and Nettle Moore, Clara and Irene Henry, E. Accoe and A.

Mr. Edwin F. See, general secretary of the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A., died on July 18 at the age of 45. He spent 20 years in the association work in Brooklyn. When he began working years ago Brooklyn had but one Y. M. C. A. building. To-day there are 12, and all are in good financial condition. Mr. See always was a stunner friend to the Carlton avenue branch. Mr. See's remembrance is the office secretary at Tarpumpet Saturday. R. P. Humlin, the secretary of the Carlton avenue branch, with several of the Brooklyn branch secretaries, was one of the pillarbearers. Upon the shoulders of Mr. H. L. Simmons has fallen Mr. See's mantle. Miss Hattie Van Dusen of Ormond place has gone to Cleveland. O., to spend the summer with her sister. Ilex Van Dusen of Ormond has been the secretary to Dr. W. L. Bukley's school, No. 80, in Manhattan. Delegates from the Concord Women's Christian Temperance Union to the annual meeting of the Northeastern Federation of Women's Clubs have been selected as follows: Mrs. M. J. Zeno and Miss Mary J. Hayes. CAPACITY NOT RACIAL. At least two Negroes born in the United States have taken first prizes in oratory at leading American universities within a few years. Not long ago a Zulu youth, a full-blooded Negro, born in South Africa, carried off first honors in oratory at Columbia. Since then a Japanese student has done the same at Ann Arbor. Now we read that Joe Tung Lee, a Chinese student, has "surprised New York university by winning the second prize in the Sandham oratorical contest." A Fillipino and a Siamese student have won similar honors in least prominent American institutions of learning. There is nothing in these achievements by young men of other races that should be humiliating to men of the white race, but there is much that should inspire them with respect for the mental capacity of men of other races and to rebuke the spirit which prompts them to treat with contempt men of other colors as inferior beings. It is well to bear in mind in estimating the achievements of all these young men of other races who were born abroad that they labored under the disadvantage of having to write their orations in a language of which they probably had no knowledge six or eight years ago. They have had to acquire a large English vocabulary to master English idioms and claation as well as to develop argumentative and rhetorical ability, and for this they are entitled to special credit. The young men of these races are more than ordinarily bright specimens of their respective races, but that is not material. The point is that men of those races are capable of high intellectual performances—that white men have no monopoly of capacity and that the Zulu savage is not so very far removed from the highly civilized white man. Warwick: The Union A. M. E. church, pastored by Rev. Ezekiel E. Hayne, will give a musical to-night at Demarent hall. The Round Tree Male Quartet, of New York, will sing and Prof. E. E.

St. PETERSBURG July 24.—Terrorist proclamations announcing that sentence of death has been imposed on the Czar, Gen. Trepoff, M. Pobledonostef, who was Procurator-General of the Holy Synod; Gen. Orioff, the "pacificator" of the Baltic provinces, and others have been scattered over part of Petroff. Copies were even nailed on the doors of Gen. Orioff and Gen. Trepoff's quarters. The exodus of foreigners from St. Petersburg continues. Mrs. Meyer, wife of the American Ambassador, and their children will leave by the northern express tomorrow. Following the Dume's expiring appeal from the Czar to the people, Premier Stolypia to-day telegraphed the following instructions to the Governor-General, Governors and Prefects throughout Russia, and to the Viceroy of the Caucasus: "In conformity with instructions received from the Emperor, with the view of securing full co-operation between the different local authorities I hereby inform you that the Government expects you to exercise vigilant and unstring supervision over your subordinates, so that order may be promptly and definitely restored. Disturbances must be suppressed and revolutionary movements must be put down by all legal means. "The measures you take must be carefully considered. The struggle begun is against society itself. Consequently wholesale repression cannot cannot be approved of. Imprudent and illegal acts are likely to give rise to discontent instead of conducting to calm, and cannot be tolerated. "The intentions of the Emperor are immutable. The Government firmly deserves to assist in the amendment of the legal procedure and the laws hitherto enforced, which no longer serve their purpose. The old regime will be regenerated, but order must be fully maintained. "You must ace on your own initiative, as you are invested with responsibility. Firm and vigorous steps taken on these lines will doubtless be upheld by the best part of society." The way has been prepared for a military, distrusthip by a propositif bwn under consideration at Peterhof to create an advisory council to assist the Caar. Premier Stolypin, "General Trepoff and others to-day conferred with the Caar upon the subject. The aim is to form such a council out of the members of the Council of the Emperor and Conservatives and Liberals like MM, Sulpio and Guchoff, and also, possibly, several Constitutional Democratic leaders with the purpose of measuring the population of the sincerity of the Government's future intentions. Over a hundred of the Russian members of the Puma who yesterday issued the address to the country arrived from Viborg at 3 o'clock this afternoon. A crowd of several thousand persons had gathered at the railroad station, but a heavy force of gendrines dispersed it. The last car of the train was occupied by the members of the group of Tol, and red flags flying from the windows as it rolled into the station. Prince Dolgoroukoff and M. Maboukoff headed the members as they marched out in a body through lines of police. Before leaving Viborg it was arranged through underground revolutionary channels Dj distribute the address to the country. Hundreds of the couple arrived in unreproportionally plenty. A printed it bears 181 signatures, but two score have signed since the printing. It has been agreed that the members will not leave St. Petersburg unless expelled, and attempts will be made to continue holding meetings as a group and keep in communication with the proletariat organizations. They have already opened an alliance with the purely revolutionary organizations. The members of the Group of Toll and their allies, the proletariat organizations of St. Petersburg, were in consultation last night and this morning. While they fully indicted the Parliamentary address to the country, so far as it goes, they consider it to be a half-way measure and hold that it should be followed up by an appeal to the army, preparatory to an uprising, which they consider inevitable. The Polish members have issued a formal statement expressing full sympathy with the struggle for a constitutional regime on a democratic basis, but adding that they preferred to consult their constituents before committing Poland. The peasant and workmen members of the Duma expect the upheaval to first begin in the country. Revolutionary emissaries are scattering among the peasants and expect to induce them to gree almost in a body. The membership of the Permanent Executive Committee, which is headed by Prince Paul Dolgeroukoff, together with the future plans, are kept secret, but it is virtually prepared to assume the role of a directory, or provisional government should developments make such a course adviable. Domiciliary searches continue in all quarters of the capital, the prisons are already filling, and the old system of attempting to conceal from the people what is happening has been adopted. The citizenship of the press has been re-established, and the proceedings of the members of the Dumfries Viborg or of the members adopted there has been permitted to be published. The editions of the Rech Strona and The Twentieth Century (formerly the Rusa) were confacated as they left the press this morning. The Constitutional Democratic Club and two other political clubs were closed tonight by order of the police. A caucus of Constitutional Democrats was being held at the club at the time. Prince Paul Dolzorokoff, chairman of the Central Executive Committee appointed at Viborg, has asked the committee to vise, which will arrange a secret caucus tomorrow to discuss further tactics. Moscow Constitutional Democrats recommended the summoning of a national convention of the party. 53 West 133d Street Between Lamar and Fifth Avenues CHOICE WINES, LIQUORS AND CIGARS Meals to Order WILLIAM HAMILTON, Prop.
