Not Enough Opportunities for Increasing Efficiency New Fighting Conditions in Political Affairs Cause No End of Anxiety—Securing Better Homes. Osmann, April 1.—A colored man has just won a new honor in Chicago. By grace of our Democratic mayor, Judge Duane, Richard T. Duane has been appointed captain of Engine Fire Company 81. Duane was born in 1894, and he made an exceptionally good record. No other colored man has ever held a similar position of honor and responsibility. The position has been awarded on merit, and not on a political favor. Mayor Duane has displayed five courage in opposing a police officer who had made an exceptionally good record. A year ago police circles were astounded by the mayor's action in promoting William Gileson to the responsible position of desk agent. This position is one of great responsibility and it was predicted that he would be a burrowing situation. But the new desk captain proved himself equal to the position and is making a fine record. It is interesting to note the surprises and disappointment of white men because colored men win their way to success in mixed situations. They seldom fail to win. In this great city there are colored men who are quietly and unobtrusively doing things that they never expected to be able to do. There are bookkeepers, expert accountants, electricians, farmers, waitresses. Colored men are to be found in the schools, in the stock yards, and indicted in almost every trade. In other words, the Afro-American is efficient. In fact he is really growing in efficiency more rapidly than there are opportunities open for his candidates. He is easily found in where in these higher callings, yet in spite of even organised opposition, he is all the time unexpectedly slipping through the half-closed door of opportunity, and once in, he easily and quickly proves himself to be able to do. The proof is everywhere and conulating that this race is continually rising higher than its opportunities. The closing days of an exciting local election campaign are upon us. As stated before in these letters, the Afro-American is not a candidate for rejection. He has caused the Republicans no end of anxiety. He came into the campaign in a sulking mood. One prominent man after another has come out into the open and declared himself for Mayor Dunne, and declared himself for rejection as mayor of Chicago. Professional leaders of the race have been urgently summoned and coaxed to devise some FANNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS. Hundred Dollars in Gold for Faithful Sexism. LOUCIESTILLE, KY. April 1.—Thornton Thompson, colored, who recently resigned his position as seventon of St. Paul's Epiphany, has served faithfully his service for thirty-one years, number of $100 in gold sent to him by many of his friends. The following note accompanies the money: Thornton Thompson, from the parish of St. Paul's church, and many of his old friends, will be for as many years—and as a gracious interment, washing him and his wife in loving memory. THE NEW YORK AGE. Great Friend and Loverhe of Southern Education Suffering from Overwork. The following special notice is published to day: For reasons of health, Robert C. Ogden, to our great regret, retired, now our own physician, and we extend our heart throb cause at this date—JOHN WANAMAKER, Philadelphia, New York and Paris. March 30, 1907. Mr. Ogden is 70 years old and has for some time been a patient of the Wanamaker store in New York. On February 29 his condition was critical, but he is now much better. Weakness of the heart, due to overwork and fatigue, was the diagnosis of his physician. Mr. Ogden said last night the store had been made, nor had he planned for the future, except that he would devote himself to getting well. When Mr. Orden was a boy in Philadelphia he put in his holidays from school to work at the Wanamaker store at $1.50 a week. At 14 he became a dry goods clerk. Later he became a partner in the firm of Deviln & Co., re-creating the business he became a member of the Wanamaker firm in Philadelphia, and in 1880 he returned to New York to be resident manager of the new branch, formerly A. T. Stewart's present Wanamaker store is the result. "I have not been out of employment for a day in over fifty years," said Mr. Ogden once, "nor has it ever been necessary for me to sit in place. I have always had knowledge. Last May Mr. Ogden's notable interest in Southern education resulted in his reelection, despite his protests, to the presidency of the Conference for Education in the South. He was president of the General Education Institute of the General Education Board and of the Southern Education Board and in a trustee of Tuskegee Institute. GENERAL EDUCATION BOARD GIVES LITTLE TO AFRO-AMERICAN SCHOOL New Policy Contingent Upon Schools Raising Larger Sum than Board Gives Bars Them Out. The General Education Board has adopted a policy in the distribution of the fund for higher education, donated by Mr. John D. Rockefeller, that benefiting institutions than the board contributes, will come very near barring Afro-American colleges from benefiting by the fund. The board has just announced the amounts it has given for higher education, and in the list it has received $52,500, southern colleges have received $52,500, contingent upon their raising $21,260,000. The grand total of monies guaranteed to all colleges by the board is $1,702,500, provided the benefiting colleges shall raise $21,260,000. It is announced in the statement of the board that "since its organization the board has contributed to schools for the colored people over $280,000. At the meeting held to-day gifts were made to coloring institutes, engaging with them. It looks as if the hundred and more Afro-American schools dependent more or less upon the philanthropy of the North and West are in for a hard struggle to live, as the available funds for educational work are now concerned. The managers may or may not give to such schools as they please. WHITE WOMAN SAVES HIM FROM INDIANAPOLIS MOB Defence Home and Holds Crowd at Bay Until Police Arrive. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 30—Mrs. Ruth Prindlede saved a Negro from a mobs of glass workers last night and held the mob at bay till the police arrived. In a row at the glass works the Negro stabbed a white man, and friends of the latter took up the quarrel and attacked the assailant on every side till he turned the assailant into run into the Prindlede home and fell into the door. Mrs. Prindlede at once shut the door and held her ground while the mob hurled stones and threatened her with death. WILL NOT SELL BISHOP'S COURT. Bishop William B. Derrick Refuses $25,000 for His Flushing Property. Bishop William B. Derrick, the well-known African Methodist divine, has received an offer of $25,000 for the property he occupies on the northeast corner of State and North Prince streets. Flushing, that the offer comes to Bishop Derrick from a syndicate of Roman Catholics who desire the property for a Catholic institution. Bishop Derrick's property consists of about an acre of land, with ample frontage on both State and North Prince. The Bishop wants a $40,000 offer before he will give it serious consideration. JAIL FOR EUROPEANS. Stern Justice for Avengers of Injustice White Women in East Africa. www.sternjustice.org MOMINHA, East Africa, April 2. —The recent flagging of natives by Europeans at Nairobi for alleged insulting of white women had been followed by the prosecution of those accused of the flagging and the assembling of a result Cast, Grogan, president of the Colonists' Association, has been sentenced to a month's imprisonment and to pay a fine of 5,500 rupees. Two other prominent colonists, Messers, Bowker and Gray have each been sentenced to two weeks in prison. Two of their abettors, who are also prominent, were sentenced to a fortnight's imprisonment. The whites are very indignant over the sentences. Capt. Grogan is a well known colony and writer. He walked from down to Cairo, 5,200 miles, in 1898. GALESHA A. GROW DEAD He Was the Father of the Homestead Law and Wise Sneakers of the Horns Law and Was Speaker of the House. SCANANTON, PA., March 31—The Hon. Galusha A. Grow, father of the Home- stead law and during the rebellion Speaker of the Home at Washington, died at clock this morning at his home in Galusha, where he was born. He been ill for nearly a month. Less than five weeks ago he was walking about the streets of this city, erect and active. Death was due to general debility and leaves a large estate, much of which he accompanied late in life by investments in bitumilpous coal. Up to the last he took an active interest in political matters and served in the House for articles on his Congressional experience. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, APRIL 4. 1907. THE CRAZY HUNTSMAN Wants Support in the Effort to Secure Fair Deal for All Citizens Under the Constitution. The Constitution League appeals to patriotic citizens throughout the United States for moral and financial support in its defense of the constitution's rights of all citizens in pursues of locality, race, sex, political or religious creed. We make the following statement in answer to many inquiries and for new friends of the cause. The present incorporated league is the outcome of the preliminary organization of 1885. It is the organization of the American conscience and patriotism, organised to achieve specific results. The league believes that the Constitution of the United States is "the supreme law of the land" and that "the judge in every State shall bound thereby, by any law of any State to the contrary notwithstanding" (Article VI.1); that "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican form of government" (Article IV.); that the Constitution guarantees free speech and the peaceable peaceability to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances" (Amendment I.); that "the trial of all crimes" "shall be by jury" (Article III.1), and that all persons accused of crimes shall be punished by an impartial jury, and "have the assistance of counsel for his defense" (Amendment VI.1); that "excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishment, inflicted" (Amendment VII.1); that an accused shall be punished (except an imprisonment for crime) shall exist within the United States" (Amendment XIII.1); that "ALL PERSONS born in the United States are citizens" (Amendment XI.1); that in States closed, its Representatives in Congress "shall be reduced in the proportion" prescribed in the Fourteenth Amendment; that "the right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abolished by any State amount of ripe or old or previous condition of servitude" (Amendment XV.1); that Congress, by special provision of the Constitution itself, is given "power to enforce the provisions (of the last three) articles by appropriate Congress and political parties should be held accountable for long neglect of this constitutional obligation. The League recognizes the valuable assistance given by the Federal Administration in the prosecution of violations called "pleonage case," first initiated by independent effort. All friends of the cause hope that violations and disregard of other constitutional provisions will not in the future remain ignored either by the Supreme Court or with trial by jury ignored, freedom of speech denied, the mandates of the Supreme Court defied, with the constitutional rights of citizens "deepest," abridged or more dangerously circumvented, with a weekly average of three citizens put to death, without legal trial, every week for nineteen years, it would seem that the time for organized protest and action had arrived. A credit of sympathetic America that we have been horrified at the Jewish massacres and Armenian assassinations, but the outside world has also stood againt at the race mobs, lynchings, and massacres in Christian America. The League defends the unified influence of Christian civilization, North and South, to uphold the law, adequately punish the guilty and make every citizen respect the guarantees of the Federal Constitution, without regard to person or locality. The League proposes, by means of organized lawful resistance and positive action, to aid in suppressing lawlessness, mob violence, lynchings, and all forms of crime, to show, make life in the United States, five times less secure than in Australia, six times less secure than in Canada, nine times less secure than in England, fourteen times less secure than in England, in Germany. (See address of Judge Thomas at Nashville.) The League's "defense of the black batallion" has earned for it the moral and financial support of the nation. The great, history-making "Brownville afray" will rank with the international awakening which required ten years' hard work to lead the organization, of the prosecuted Fortune J. Dreyfus. The League reminded us nojust, unconstitutional, and without "due process of law," the condemnation and punishment of the members of Companies B. C and D, Twenty-fifth Infantry, discharged AND BERN RABBIT, HE LAY LOW. "without honor," It demanded an open bearing for these defenders of the flag, and sent two commission, part white and part colored, to the scene of the disheath, and sent two commission, also to El Reno, Oklahoma, to ascertain the facts. The facts and advisers gathered by the League were held before the President and the Senate of the United States commission of which the President sent two messages to the Senate (Document 155), hastened his Assistant Attorney-General to Brownville and revoked the most drastic feature of his sweeping order of disheath. The Senate cipitated one of the most important debates on "Executive authority" that the country has witnessed. It has brought the people of the United States again into the foreground of undamental questions of liberty, justice and humanism. The investigation of the entire proceedings through the Senate Committee on Military Affairs is now under way, largely through the heroic efforts of Senator Kenneth K. Epperson at every point of the inquiry by the League's commissioners and representatives. The League is representative. It invites and has the hearty cooperation of independents, Democrats, Republicans, labor organization organizations, Prohibitionists, Socialists. A large number of college presidents and instructors are "charter" members, and there are in affiliated relationship hundreds of clergymen, and thousands of professional business men throughout forty States and the over twenty territories. We have the time to make this work has been supported by the private contributions of a few patriotic citizens, but the work has grown to such vast proportions that it is now necessary to nationalise its support, and hereafter by plan and fund. We have finally built in hand. We use the term "in hand" advisedly, for the League is incorporated and will manage its affairs on a strictly cash basis without individual liability or corporate indebtedness. We feel the League has behind it the heart brain and conscience of the Nation. That our cause is just. That it does not represent personal exploitation, but National betterment and makes for the ultimate good and conscience of the Republic. Our issue is authorized to collect cash for the League. All checks, postal and express money orders should be made payable to "Treasurer, Constitution League, U.S.," and sent direct to headquarters, 500 Fifth avenue, New York. All complements from National headquarters. All bankable remittances will bear the deposit certification of the Colonial Trust Company of New York as fiscal agents for the organization. By order of the Executive committee. A. J. MURPHY, Secretary. New York, April, 1907. CAPTAIN MACKLIN TESTIFIES. Does Not Think Soldiers Did the Shooting at Brownville. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Capt. Edgar A. Macklin, of Company C, Twenty-fifth Infantry, testified to day at the Brownwood militia on Military Affairs. He had just arrived in Washington from San Antonio, Texas, where he was in attendance at the court marshal on charges growing out of the shooting affray. He said to day that when the firing occurred in bed in his "unfortunate" having retired at about 11:50 a.m. I was not awakened until 12:55 some nee after the firing had ceased. He t. in joined his company and was in the guard for the balunow of the night. When asked by Senator Forker to give his opinion as to who did the shooting, he hosted a moment and said, "Well, I don't know." He said that in their excitement and confusion the men might have fired a few shots from the barracks, but that he had seen nothing to indicate they had done so, and he could not believe it possible. Mr. Macklin concerning the attack upon him at Fort Reno after the Brownsville affray, when the Captain was shot through the head. "The witness said he was in distress," Mr. Macklin said. "Officers of my regiment tried to make me believe that the shooting was for the purpose of robbery," he said. "but it is my own opinion that it was not." He said that he was done by a masked Negro, but that he knew nothing more concerning it. Corrental Knowles of Company A, Twenty-fifth Infantry, in under arrest, charged with hay-trapping, said that the evidence against Knowles was purely circumstantial. What Mr. Shorter Thinks of the Christian Religion. How can you attend to everyday? Today the Christian Endeavor society over the country has as a Bible study a lesson with the title: *Home Missionions - Breaking the World*. When you and I shall conclude that the Christian religion is really a cunningly-devised fable, all hope is gone. Let us continue to believe that God is true, that he has some followers, even in America, and record the choice of such a subject for discussion a good book. *Cran. H. Shooter*. Washington, March 21. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. April. — $9,800 or practically $6,000 is the liberal appropriation which President Allen has been able to secure from the 44th General Assembly of Missouri for the maintenance of two schools, one of which has suing two years. Of this amount $2,000 is to be devoted to the increased facilities for the agricultural department, one of the most important of the numerous institutions in the country. The already large and well-selected library is to be increased by the terms of a special clause of the bill, and the usual amount is appropriated for the Summer school, conducted annually, and one of the schools in the country, exclusively designed for Afro-Americans. Because of this Summer school which opens immediately upon the closure of the third, or fourth, school, Lincoln Institute approximates continuous session more closely than most schools of this character, and presents many advantages to teachers who desire better positions with increase of salary, well as to those seeking general training. Active preparations for commencement season, inaugurated in May by the closing exercises of the Model school, and continuation of the department until the middle of June, are in progress. All classes are unusually large and enthusiastic, and the exercises give promise of more than ordinary interest. The Assent of Food's Hill" a lecture given March 29, by Rev. Dr. W. G. Foote, minister and lecturer of note, to the Faculty and students of the institute, was highly appreciated. Decidedly humorous, as well as philosophical, it came to be a work of hard work in the class room. The sunny spring weather has awakened the athletic instinct in both sexes, and the girls' "diamond," no less than that of the boys, is a favorite spot during spring. We will long country walks for health, wild flowers and "greens," are at a premium. President Allen's class in logic is making excellent progress, under its able instructor, and is thus adding another necessary link in the educational chain which will serve each member of the class in the "stern realities" when passed out into the "stern realities" when passed out in a biennial sphere will soon be launched. JOSEPHINE S. YATES. THE BROWNSVILLE INQUIRY. Lieut. Crier Doubts That the Soldiers Were Gullity of the Shooting. WASHINGTON, March 30—Lieut. Harry Grier, who temporarily accompanied Company C. Twenty-fifth Infantry, on the night Brownville was "shot up," was held in military custody by the Military Committee to-day, he being subjected to cross-examination by Senator Warner. His testimony developed the fact that while the night was starlight it impossible for him to be away when it was white or dark. He reduced to five or seven minutes the time within which a gun could be cleaned so as to show no traces of having been fired. He reiterated his opinion that since the discharge all his three companies he had been shot up, and that he had been held by men of those companies. It was assertive that the other, faithful men of the companies had nothing to do with it and knew nothing about it. If it were done corneled, and in his opinion the course pursued toward the men after the shooting, of depressing them of their privileges, extra drills and guard mount, had prevented the discovery of the guilty men. If they were corneled, and in his opinion the course pursued before them. His doubts as to the guilt of any of them had been somewhat shaken by the testimony before the court-martial and the committee. His doubts as to the guilt of any of them had been somewhat shaken by the testimony before the court-martial and the committee. B. First Sergeant William Blaney and Assistant Cook Rarnor of the same company were also examined in regard to the identity of certain guns from which the army experts have declared were fired. He was also held in the streets of Brownville the morning after the shooting. Mt. Vernon Notes A surprise party was tendered Nilan Merritt Johnson of a Sherwood Avenue inn.

Vermont, she met four friends, next four weeks, Mrs. Jessica Hill of Continued avenue has been very ill for the last Sunday, Mrs. Charles White of Sherwood Park has been very ill for a few days. Residence Guests at Merry and at Vanderbilt University. MARSVILLE, March 30.—Two important and notable events have happened in this city this week. On last evening Dr. Beesner T. Washington delivered the commencement address to the Medical college, where a class of about 60 persons were graduated in medicine, pharmacy and dentistry. The audience comprised the most intelligent and well-to-do persons in Marsville to the number of about 5,000. It was in many respects a notable occasion. Even more notable and important, however, than this was the fact that on the afternoon of his same day Dr. Washington was given the position of students and faculty of Vanderbilt University. This, as is well known, is the leading university for the Southern Methodist University, and this time that a colored man has ever been invited to deliver an address before the students and faculty of this university. There were present not only the students of Washington but also the ministers of Nashville. Dr. Washington's subject was, "How the Educated Southern White Man May Help the Negro." For two hours he discussed this subject with the students and most sincere attention from the audience. At the close of his address, Dr. Washington was given an ovation by the students and equal to that, he has received from students at Yale and Harvard or anywhere else in the North where he has spoken. The Roe in the South Sewing Wood and Getting by with a Steady Grind. MONTGOMERY, Ala., March 30.—Any one who travels through the South will not be continue and persistent present in the manner of the one living in the North roads so much about the horrible things that take place in the South that he is likely to believe that woods is cowed and discouraged. This is far from the fact. The Negro throughout the South, so far as your correspondent has seen, and has been in most of the woods, is piling up a bank account, in getting hold of land and houses, in establishing store of every character, and above all, in educating his children. Where the publicity for education, he is putting his hand in his pocket and paying for such education himself. The Negro child in the heart of the South is being educated in the schools. In private schools of dustrial schools, in colleges, universities and professional institutions. The Southern States have not as yet been able to bear this kind of work this will not be attempted, that will not learn to abut the Negroes from getting book learning. No one can go through a town or city of nine sites without noting from one to a half dozen Negro churches in process or erection. It is amazing to note the disposition which the Negro is now exhibiting to the world. While people in the North and throughout many parts of Europe are angry at the race problem, the masses of people here in the heart of the South are going quietly on making progress every year and are not concerning themselves very much in the abstract discussion of their problem. In this respect the race problem is acting an element of strength which few bought, until a few years ago, it possessed. Right here in Montgomery, for example, a first-class Negro paper, The Colored Abstraction, has been equally established, and pany; the editor and leading spirit in it is Rev. R. C. Judkina. This is only evidence of what the race is accomplishment, and it will fill nineteenth of the positions in the United States post office. In the same building Mr. Nathan H. Alexander holds the office, and in the same building there is N. Negro Deputy Internal Revenue Collector. We could go into every large city of the South and point to something of this elec- rage race which is in the direction of progress. One is often surprised to see the beautiful houses that our people are building and occupying. Some of these homes will be made of wood, some of them contain eight or ten rooms. They are provided with all modern conveniences, such as porch, bathtubs and a fireplace. Some of them own their own carriages and in some cases they have automobiles. The carriages driven by some of the Negro families of the south would do credit to any race of people. Another interesting element in this situation is the following: While in politics and what is called social equality there is a strong sense of pride in the Negro and the white man are on good terms. In many cases your correspondent finds that the Negroes own stock in some businesses, some on cotton mills, factories and banking institutions. WE HAVE NINE BANKS IN DEAR OLD'MISSISSIPPI And Mound Bayon, We Cannot Always Point to It with Pride. MOUND Bayon, May 1, April 1.—Mound Bayon is a Negro town. We have a population of over five hundred people. We have the Negro Mayor, a Negro board of aldermen, a Negro bank, and all the officers of the town are controlled by us. We have several substantial churches, two schools and a dozen business houses, the most important business houses are the officers' bank, lowing are the officers' directors; John W. Francis, president; W. T. Montgomery, vice-president; Charles Banks, cashier; directors, R. M. McCarty, J. W. Francis, William Jordan, W. T. Montgomery, William Jordan, W. T. Montgomery, C. R. Stringer B. H. Crosswell, H. A. Goddish, S. M. Morgan. This bank has been organized since the first meeting of the National Negro Business Association, when seven years ago. Now there are nine in the State of Mississippi, whereas there was none before the Business League was brought to the front. The leading men and officers of Mound Bayon have been involved in improvements will take place in this community within the next few years. The State meeting of the Nero Buni music group take place in Meridian some time in June. DuBois Saye It Is "An Impudent Lie!" DuBois Says It Is "An Impudent Lie" The statement sent out by the Jamestown Exposition management that I am preparing an exhibit for Jamestown or an impudent lie, and quite in keeping with the whole shameful and discreditive enterprise Is There Any Such for Worthy Afro-Americans? Rev. DeBerry States Some Discouraging Conditions in Beautiful Springfield. From The Springfield (Mass.) Daily Bo publican. In a recent church in one of the larger churches of Springfield, the president of a Negro industrial college in the South made the statement that the Negroes of the North had been spotted by the very opportunities for the lath of which their Southern brethren were in full support, in full by The Republican. This assertion, or its equivalent in meaning, is often made, but almost always by persons who know much about the Negro in the South and little or nothing about the Negro in the North of the truth as well as for the sake of justice to the Northern Negro I ask space to narrate a few incidents of which I have personal knowledge and which fairly illustrate the scope of the Negro's industrial opportunity in Springfield and throughout the North as well. Case No. L. This is that of a young man who, after four years of satisfactory service as an elevator tender in an office building, has what most people call a "workaholic" with his employer which resulted in his losing the job. This young man walked the streets of Springfield for two weeks in search of steady employment, but without success. Finally he came to work with the rover. As I knew him to be worthy and capable, I joined him in his search for the means of a livelihood. A day or two later, I read in the want column on one of the daily papers of the city, "The writerurtled to the toilet," after which appeared the name and address of a well-known local steam laundry. At once I answered this "ad," by telephone and was informed, in response to my inquiry, from the other end of the line came the query, "Who's talking, please?" my response was "I am the pastor of one of the city churches and have in my parish a worthy man who wants work in the interest, came the question, "What sort of a man is he?" "He is honest, reliable, industrious, temperate and physically healthy and strong," was my reply. Then the encouraging response. Please him, when you see him, the question, "But suppose," said I, "It develops when you see him that he is a Negro?" "O, is it? Well, I am sorry, but I fear we could not employ him." "Why not?" I responded promptly. Then couldn't I put a colored card into his hand for our customers weeks ahead should lose trade. I am sorry, but it would be useless for him to come in. We cannot use him. Good-by. And I heard the attiling office which asked me if it is hung up at the other end of the wire. Three days later, I read in the same want column of the same daily paper the following: "Wanted a man to drive grocery team and do porters work about the store." Then were given the name and address of a well-known middle school of Negro patronage. There was something in the very circumstances of the present situation which somehow inspired hope and immediately after, reading the "ad." I made haste to answer it by phone, and the following conversation took place between "the pastor of one of the city churches" and the proprietor of one of the city churches: "I-Is this Mr. ____? G—Yen. P. I notice that you advertise in this morning's paper for a man to drive your town and do porter's work about your store. G- Yep. I- is the place still open? G- Yep. P- Mr. —, I am the pastor of one of the city churches and have in my parish a young man who wants work and who is prepared to fill the place attaching himself to the church should be glad to send him with a written testimonial, if you seem it worth while. G—We should be glad to have you send him. Could he come in this morning? him. Could he come in this morning? P—He can and will do so. It may not be necessary, but perhaps I ought to inform him before he comes that he is a Negro. G—A Negro! Well, I, I—I’m sorry, but it would be unpleasant for him to apply. P—Why so? G—Well, personally, I have no objections, but I fear it would injure my trade. P—But he is polite and accommodating and there is nothing in his personal appearance that could be the occasion of offense except it be the mere fact of his color. Will you not allow alim to come in and talk with him? It would be simply a waste of his time. We could not employ him. Goodly, sir.” And again I heard the sound of the receiver. Case No. 2. This is that of a Negro student in the International Young Men’s Christian Association Training School was in charge himself for Young Men’s Christian Association Training School people in the South. He like most Negro students in Northern schools, found it necessary to work his way. It is the custom of some business and commercial institutions in Springfield to give temporary employment as clerks and salesmen days and during vacation seasons. This is rightly regarded by Christian business men as a practical form of benevolent aid to deserving students who need it. After giving himself for a year or more at such work as caring for farm; and lawns and a table with fruit; this Negro student would furnish himself to the Christian prophetic “f one of these stores, and ask for a favor to that enjoyed by so many.” fellow-students. Althony change in his keen sensitivity and anunna. Lorenzo were well known, the more so, this student was sufficient proverbial colmness and le the better of him. But a professor elected him. The student with question meantime he was devial cape. When he had discus that was disoverable he of a Southern Negro colle into his mind a possible something else to him. He seemed with thought and the Nero college graduate would not question to do mental浇 and ask that the question way to get rid of his brain in him like this part of work he did in college. "Well, I am pleased to have not got you, Mr. — but an sorry that if present there is no suitable work to offer you. The only possible work to do is to teach children how to washing windows and cleaning floors, and you being a college graduate would would want something more, abstrating himself. "But I am willing, respond- ing to the question and the more abstrating terms." The roe had failed to work all along the business man was discon- covering. For a moment there was a blank space in his mind, but again his never brought the indictment to a close with the following remark: "I will talk the matter over with my manager and if we are possibly to something for you, will be able to do it." The student look for this means and it need not be added that In what did the student look for this manipulation? What did he do? The man was examined by this store. Chen No. 8. This is that of a young woman who is a graduate of the commercial business department of the Springfield high school and who later graduated high school with a tool additional post-graduate course in short-hand and lettering. She is a native of Springfield and a member of one of its best educated families. Shortly after her graduation she worked in a local paper, applied by letter for office work with a large commercial corporation and received from one of the department heads the following letter: "Please call us soon as you have made application." On calling at this office, she was directed to a room above where scores of young women were engaged in similar activity that for which she had made application. In this room created quiet surprise, and excited a ripple of cold laughter among the young women of the other race. The surprise of the amended operators was exceeded only by that of this Negro girl was the one whom she had, on the previous day, invited to the office for a conference regarding work. But in spite of the invitation, the caller was told that the place had been filled. "To the month later, there appeared a new woman," said for a young woman to do clerical work, but this time in another department. Again this girl wrote her application and mailed it at once to the head of the department. This time she sent a number as well as her street address. On the following day she had a telephone message from this department head who, after asking a few questions, requested her to call and see him the next morning at his desk and then followed a scene in which embarrassment vied with surprise. After questioning her to her fitness, he found himself unable to give a decisive answer that morning, but assured her that his application would not be受理 this juncture. She accordingly sought and secured the intercession of two such persons. One of these went far as to lay her case before the vice-president of the company who received her letter believer in "a square deal" to all classes. Having listened attentively to the facts as related by the intercessor, he tried to investigate the did so, and within a week the intercourse received from him the following letter: "I have talked with Mr. ---- in regard to the employment of the young woman con- nented to me, and I have been in the sympathy in favor of doing so, yet on conferring with his employer, he is convinced that the exigencies of the service will not allow him to act as he really wishes to act, and all that is much much. And with this the incident closed. It should be here noted, however, in connection with the above, that according to a careful estimate, the colored people of Springfield pay into this company about $1,500 every year. Her next experience was with a Springfield publishing house whose 'ad'. in a local paper this young woman answered after the manner already described. The following letter from the business office of the firm to the business in answer to her application: "Will you kindly call on the undersigned to morrow morning as early as possible regarding your application in answer to advertisement". When on the next morning the application was received in directions, ascended the long stairway to a room above, she found herself again in the presence of scores of young women of the more favored race, and with exactly the same humiliating experience as that through which she had sued. In this instance her feelings suffered greater injury than mere insult could possibly inflict, and this injury resisted from the fact that among the young women who there ridiculed her presumption were those who had been her classmates in the law school of this company, who soon faced her, she met with an honesty which had been sadly lacking in all the rest to whom she had applied. With him there was no lying nor evading of the issue, for he frankly told her that he could not consolate her with the apologizing of color. She thanked him for his brawness and left the room. Not quite hospeless but thoroughly disca- ncouraged, she now abandoned the search for clerical work—the kind for which she had spent four years in special prepara- tion for the job. She decided of leaving home, decided to see what the chances were in other lines of em- ployment outside of domestic service. She then applied for work in a large department store where her name was filed. She was hired as a clerical slowly manufactory in whose office window was the conspicuous placard "Girl Wanted," but where she was told that only girls experienced in the manufacture of candy could be employed; and then in a dozen other places where old women to be turned away. I prefer having submitted these incidents, which fairly illustrate how the Newsgroup "spollax" him, to refrain from further comment upon them in order that all the more clearly they may speak for them, with the following questions: my 1.

We cannot believe it is true, and the employant is not Negro. Nor Negro applicant for such a position, we have been charging up their own personal prejudices to the account of the whole community, and its misrepresentation.

Of the contribution they made to the fight for Negro freedom? And of what avail the emancipation from legal slavery? the freedman is to find even among his emancipated industrial servitude some useful for the cause of the law? Ah, but this is too fattering for us. It is not merely an industrial servitude we are thus forcing; it is something worse than that—worse than slavery. We are not an attitude beat upon starving the New world of existence and the earth. And this in Springfield! There is evidently need among us of a revival of a little of the spirit of the Jacob-let alone a revival of the spirit of the Jacob—let alone characters in human history whom the present week is especially calling to mind.

FULL DRESS SUITS TO HIRE 5000 IN WEEKLY WAGES They Occupy All Professional, Business and Labor Fields and Are Prospering Progressively. BIGHOMM, Va., April 1—W. P. Burrell, one of the curators of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute and a man prominent in the business interests of Bighomm, has for the past several years given considerable study to Afro- American enterprises in the city of Bighomm. As a result, he has compiled the following statistics, which serve admi- tably to show what Afro-American worth gives the number engaged in a certain line of business and the valuation of it: The Richmond colored people are a church-going set and as a consequence there are thirty Baptist churches one of which is one Presbyterian, and eight Undenominational churches with an enrolled membership of more than 25,000 souls. The property of the various denominations will do creep to any church in their district than the people of Richmond. Many of the churches are beautiful within and without and all the larger ones have pipe organs, costing from $1,200 to $3,000. The following tables show the various denomination, value of property and name of pastor: Name of Church. Value. First Baptist, W. T. Johnson, D. D. Southern Baptist, Z. D. Lewis, D.

The pastors in charge of the churches are generally well educated men and all many causes the leaders not only in church but in the business world and every important enterprise has either a minister or more among the managers. The real estate holdings of the colored people are being daily increased and it is a very hard job to get an absolutely correct report of the amount of property held by them, because the listing of property law is very imperfectly done. The Commissioner of Revenue, Mr. Hawkins, with whom we had an extended, conference, submitted his books, but at the same time entered only against such property as he knew to be held by colored people, but that he had often found himself mistaken in that property listed "colored" was occasionally found to be owned by colored people. In the case of a credited to "whites" was found to be owned by colored people. This can be understood when you consider the fact that all the deeds read alike and there is no designation of colored or white in the property in the city supposed to be owned by whites, has long since passed to colored owners. In the past the colored people have confined their holdings to colored districts, but since the agitation of the property law in the State whereby property holding has been made one of the prerequisites to voting, the colored people have bought in the best business portions of the town, and many good residential districts are now owned by colored people. When such property is reported for record, unless the court officer knows of his personal knowledge that the property has been bought by whites. It is believed that at least a mound by colored people than they are given credit for owning. Tourist for which credit should be given? $2,027,247 An examination of the reports of the auditor for the State of Virginia for the last seven years will show a marked increase in the number of colored people of Richmond from year to year. Conferences held from time to time by me with leading real estate men reveal the fact that the greatest activity (proportionately) shown in the acquiring of real estate by the colored people in recent years. There are four colored banks in the city with a combined up-paid capital stock of $143,000. These banks have on deposit between them nearly $500,000 and (as per last statement). In addition to the money on deposit in the colored banks there is estimated to be more than $500,000 on deposit in the white banks by colored people. While a large number of the colored banks have deposits in one of the colored banks, by far the greater number have never changed from the white banks which they have been patronizing for years. The first colored bank to be organized was the Fortune in 1888. This bank was chartered under act of the Virginia Legislature in March, 1888, and opened its door April, 1889, with deposits amounting to $1,300. Its resources now amount to $577,288.69. The other banks are of the same size and all doing a good business, especially the Mechanics' Savings Bank. There are two hospitals in Richmond run by colored people entirely. The Richmond Hospital and the Women's League Hospital. The Richmond Hospital is for twenty six patients, sixteen of these beds are given over almost entirely to charity patients whose expenses are paid from contributions by a band of colored women known the Women's League Hospital Association. During the year just ended more than one hundred charity cases were looked after. The expenses of the hospital generally are met by a nominal charge of such patient contributions from the board of directors. On the staff are many of the best physicians and surgeons in the city, who give their services free. The city gives $100 a year, but the hospital does not allow that it may widen its of work. The nurses' training school connected with it has a regular course and its graduate nurses are passed by the State Board of Trained Nurses. In our office in our door work in the best families.

Old Folks' Home of the Grand Hotel has about six miles from Richmond on a farm of 834 acres. This institution is also supported by charity. The farm was bought from contributions made by members of the county council. Our their charitable friends. There are accommodations for twenty old people who are taken regardless of religion need.

The public schools of Richmond for colored children are taught by about 70 teachers white teachers and principals. The children stand well both as to studies and attendance, but they have no library factions. The teachers would help him greatly. The prevailing customs of Richmond keep the races strictly apart, and no public benefactions do not benefit the Negro when the contract is brought him in contract with the whites. The colored people all belong to some form of insurance or fraternal society, which helps them in sickness and fur- rance. They are called the pioneer Fraternal Beneficiary Society for Negroes, the grand Fountain of the United Order of True Reformers. This organization formed twenty-five years ago, has dis- tributed $200,000 in property and cash of $200; 01438. THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, APRIL 4. 1007. AFRO-AMERICANS AND JAPANESE American Race Prejudice Swipes Both ROOSEVELT'S POSITION His Attitude towards the Japanese Treaty Rights and Afro-American Constitutional Rights. WASHINGTON, April 1. — President Roosevelt's voice has been raised in behalf of the Japanese in San Francisco. The voice of the great man was high and imperious and passionate. What he said in his annual message was heard in Gothic published and the friends of Japan, who joined the world over. And it was well, it was all very well, surely, to have the President of the great Republic stand before his countrymen and the world as the unfinishing champion of equality of rights in the world. Japan under the favored nation clause of her treaty with this country. Japanese have found themselves in the past and find themselves to-day discriminated against in the boasted land of the free on account of their race and color, achievements, in peace and war, of their country as a great world power. A Massachusetts white man, just from the marriage in Washington of a Japanese to an American white girl, confessed frankly to a friend of ours his feeling of being made a slave, he said, "this marriage of a member of a darker race, albeit of Japanese stock, with a woman of the white race." This was a Massachusetts man, who ought to know better, and who was a slave to the slave of the admixture of races. But, also, on the subject of darker races he is but a type of the average American white man produced by our American environment. With all his intelligence and prominence, he slaves a slave to stupid race prejudice which deter him in the most ignorant of the white race. The race prejudice which excluded Japanese children from the same schools attended by white children in San Francisco in the same race prejudice, which spoke against the Massachusetts white minority against the Massachusetts white Japanese and an American girl, white. President Roosevelt seems to think that the marvelous achievements of the Japanese people in peace and war ought to make a difference in their favor in this country in spite of their race and dark skin. The Japanese make no such distinction in favor of merit, of achievement, when the race is dark, when the skin is dark. To belong to a dark race, to possess a dark skin, are enough of themselves to damn any man, woman or child, however intelligent, refined, useful, or distinguished they may be. The Japanese own colored citizens. No devotion to the country as soldiers in times of war, no usefulness to it in times of peace, no amount of eminence in any of the varied walks of American life and civilization by individuals has been able to stone to their fellow-countriesm. either North or South, they unforgivable sin of their race and color. The President affected great surprise and indignation, and he waxed exceedingly stern and menacing at the treatment received by Japanese children at the Francisco done to these Japanese children which the District of Columbia has not done to the colored children of American citizens? San Francisco had separated these Japanese children from white children and menacing at the negregation District of Columbia separated the races in its public school system. Has the president shown any surprise, affected any indignation; has he waxed exceedingly stern and menacing at the negregation district along the Capitol of the public school, the Capitol of the Republic? Why has he discriminated in favor of the Japanese who are foreigners, and against colored Americans who are citizens of the Union, as much as under the same jurisdiction himself and the whiteness of the white race? Why this distinction in favor of foreigners when it ought to be, if there should be a distinction at all (but we do not say that there ought to be), not made by the Japanese or the Republic in favor of native colored children? The President knows that "Jim Crow" carr run into the District and run out of the District. He knows to what indignities and hardships all colored people subjected who travel from this city into the South by reason of the segregation of interstate railroad travel. Has he ever waged indignant over these outrages? Has he ever sought to right the wrongs of his colored fellow-citizens on Southern railroads? Did he do anything touching this matter during the last session of Congress when the Railroad Rate bill was passed into into the District. Did he raise objections to philippe in any special message to Congress or in public speech of any description what- over? If he did so we have no recollection of that surprising fact. Well, when the Atlanta mob of last September wore mournful limousin and indiscriminate New York wounds, many scores more, did the President rush into print to express his indignation and abhorrence of this peculiarly American harbormism along the color line to the South, where he expressed his indignation and abhorrence? But this is not all or the worst where the President was silent where he ought not to have been silent. All over the South colored men are deprived of the toils to be suffered by them by the fundamental law of the land. And the President knows this, knows it as well as any man in the country knows it. He knows that there exists a succession of laws in the United States to nullify the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, and although he has sworn to uphold that Constitution he has never done it during years when office attacks and attack the compatriety and to restore to American citizens the rights which that instrument confers upon them. He has never uttered one word in an annual or a special speech, and has never uttered one word on the platform or through the press on this subject. He has been silent where silence has suited his purpose and policy, and he has spoken as on this Japanese question, when speech has suited his purpose and policy also. In order to enforce the treaty rights of Japanese subjects, resident in this country, he would have disregarded the treaty rights of American citizens and the American but, to restore to colored men rights guaranteed to them by the Constitution he would not for anything in the world prearrange the claim of the Southern States to lose the status of colored American citizens an almighty big difference in the opinion of the President between the status of the Japanese in California under treaty rights and the status of colored American citizens under the Constitution the Republic. Why does the President draw such insidious distinction between foreigners and native Americans? Is it foreigners and Americans are strong and the colored Americans are afraid so. ARCHIBALD H. GUMKE.

Makes hair grow long, straight soft, and si ky; cures dandruff and stops falling hair. Kink-ine acts like magic on the hair. Kink-ine Is No Experiment. It was discovered by R. Roberta, 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. He has experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people require a special treatment and after laboring 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, cures 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 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. Besides, 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. SPECIAL OFFER—To prove the quality and superiority of our goods over all others, we will sell one full-size bottle of Kink-ine, price $30 cents, one cake of Kink-ine Soap, the best shampoo and Twilight Soap in the world, price $10 cents, both for only $9 cents, or six bottles and six ounces of soap for $8.00.

From The New York World Several of the alleged victims of the promoter of the Afro-American Industrial Expansion Company, which purposed holding a Lincoln cottontail world fair in 1900, visited the District Attorney's office yesterday and poured their tales into the ear of Assistant District Attorney Paul Kroel, George L. Pryer, president of the company, for when a "John Doe" subpoena had been issued, did not appear. Witnesses told how they were induced to part with their savings for stock in the million-dollar scheme, paying anywhere from 10 cents to $1 a share. It was asserted that the officers of the company voted themselves blocks of stock, no follows: Pryer, 65,000; Sakomon Johnson, secretary, 80,000, and R. L. Perry, counsel, 35,000 shares, thus aborting 130,000 of the 200,000 shares of promotion stock, in addition to voting them out. The company paid $12,000 in taxes that Pryer's salary in $12,000 each and Johnson's and Perry's $10,000 each. Among those who claim to be victims of the promoters of the Afro-American Industrial Exposition Company, which which coin Centennial World's Fair, in C. Summer Burroughs, who says he was induced by President Pryor and his associates to finance the land purchase scheme. Pryor and his associates, Mr. Burroughs, and Mr. Burroughs, certificate, non-assessable and guaranteed. He said that he had associated himself with another well-known white man, and that they secured an agreement for an option upon forty acres of the estate of P. J. Burroughs, near Alysium, near Hastings-on-the-Hudson, which could be bought for $65,000 upon easy terms. Mr. Burroughs said that some one in his company went over his head and secured the option upon the land, and that the directors of the Afro-American Company entered into a deal by which they were to take half of the land at $80,000, the sum to be paid to the acquainted by stock. Thus the acquainted sought, according to Mr. Burroughs, to pay more for half of the property than the owner charged for the whole. Owing to the protests of Mr. Burroughs, who threatened to court, the deal did not go through. The Afro-American Industrial Exposition Company was incorporated in 1905 in the District of Columbia for the purpose of holding a Lincoln Centennial Exhibition near New York city in 1900. It was conceived secretly and has hingered along for nearly two years. Awarded the city mayor or mayor of holding an industrial exhibition in the interests of the colored citizens of the country, the undertaking to be financed and managed as well as officersed by "meen brothers" throughout the land, but with three strings held by Pryor and his friends. Pryor and his associates had a sheaf of green and gold stock certificates enclosed in a box, and in the lower left-hand corner. They issued an attractive little prospectus, on the fly leaf of which Pryor was represented as president; President R. R. Johnson, president; President S. S. Sawanen, third vice-president; Robert Small, Colector of Internal Revenue at Beafort, S. C., fourth vice-president; Bahamian Johnson, clerk in the Interior; School of Sawanen, third vice-president; Robert Small, Colector of Internal Revenue at Beafort, S. C., fourth vice-president; Bahamian Johnson, clerk in the Interior; School of Sawanen, third vice-president; Robert L. Larry, a lawyer of Brooklyn, counsel, and R. W. Thompson, clerk in the War Department in Washington, auditor-in-chief. Pryor said Robert T. Washington was deeply interested. The leaflet also asserts that there will be a director-general with an elaborate staff of superintendents, an advisory staff of staff of the board, a distinguished friend of the race, specialists and others, acting in an advisory capacity to the supervising architect" and an auxiliary board of 200 prominent men in the race. The board is a president and fire commissioner. There was also to be a board of lady managers. The capital stock was divided into one million shares of a par value of one dollar each, 200,000 being "promotion stock" to be sold and "stock" to be sold as treasury stock. The intending investor was assured that he could not fail to realize more than 600 per cent. upon his outlay. He were printed showing that the net earnings of the scheme would approximate $4,000,000. Investors were told that they could not lose because the stock was guaranteed by the New York Realty and Trust Company, and were printed in the directories. Pryor told prospective investors that one of the New York Congressmen had agreed to get an appropriation from Congress of $500,000 to $1,000,000. He received near Hastings-on-the-Hudson.

SOCIALISM DEFINED AS INDUSTRIAL EQUALITY, SAH When It Comes to Its Own All Will Be Be able to "Take It Easy." I fear that Attorney-General Bonaparte is but very imperfectly acquainted with the philosophy of Socialism; otherwise he would not have said that an ante-bellum Southern plantation constituted a Socialistic community so far as as the Negroes were present. Any community in which slavery exists, whether it be chattel slavery or industrial slavery, is the extreme opposite of Socialism. It is the mission of Socialism to educate human flesh can be exploited for profit. Chattel slavery was an economic institution, and as such relentlessly exploited the blacks. To construct such a condition Socialism when Socialism is alienated it forms an exploitation is an extremely gross assertion. The Socialists seek first of all to establish industrial industrial equality, under which no man will have the right or power to exploit his fellow-men. By the collective communal welfare exploitation will cease. No man will have to beg for a job, no man will be condemned to penury, want, starvation or suicide for the lack of life's necessities. There will be no condition or burden of our industries and surfeited with leisure, wealth and luxury, while on the other the hard-driven many live in misery, uncertainty or on the thin edge of destitution. Is this such a bad doctrine, Mr. Bonaparte. What moral right has any person of our social profit, and yet capitalism, which is the ruling factor to-day, derives its power from this one merciless method. Its pomp, its gorgeous habitations, its luxuries and dissimulations are built upon the degradation, misery and blood—the sacrifice of the disinherited and plundered. A century ago the landed aristocracy declared against and bitterly opposed the establishment of the public school system, and the aristocracy never the mental equal said they. Plainly the free public schools were established. And what was the result? Where before education was confined to the few children who were so duly educated or who were duly out by charity to some of the poor, it was democratised so that all, rich and poor, could avail themselves of it. To the Bonapartes of that day it was a destructive innovation. The needles of the public school education now recognised as a right and also as a duty both on the part of the community and the family. It is not complete deracination of education, for the colleges are still under the control of the step and it has brought about a general diffusion of education. The masses are not plunged in ignorance as they were in the "good old days" when the aristocracy themselves the exclusive profession of education and culture and all the virtues.
