Afro-American Mercantile Company—Brilliant Weddings of Popular Young People.
WILMINGTON, N. C., July 7. —Pursuant to the call of the ministers of the city about 200 men met in Gregory Assembly Hall a few weeks ago. Out of this meeting there has finally developed a society for the religious, moral, social and material welfare of the men in this community, called the Men's Forum. The following officers were elected: President R. D. Drew; vice-president R. W. Whitman, Sr. of Benton, Benton, R. H. White, James D. Dry; recording secretary R. H. White, James D. Dry; financial secretary, W. H. Blount; treasurer, Garnett H. Margrave; sergeant-at-arms, Owen W. Riley; assistant, Israel Carter; governing board, Rev. E. Robert Bennett, chairman; Roxa John E. Jackson, W. L. Lee, W. A. Clark, W. H. Moore, Marshall Hill and Dr. O. H. Arnold, a institution and by-hours provision is made and adopted to guide committees, each with four granding objectives and further the main objects of the Forum. Commitment on religion, Rev. I. G. Bonitz, chairman; on morals, Mr. H. C. Webber, chairman; on social and material uplift, Jacob Wilson, chairman. From its inception the Forum has met in Gregory Hall (which has been kindly made them for use by party) at 4:30 p.m. to listen to Sunday afternoon and discuss questions of vital interest to the race in this community. Already several distinguished members of the clergy, professional and business men have given practical and heart-stirring addresses with earnest appeals for cooperation, concentration and united progress that are bearing fruit. Among the speakers so far have been the Dr. WsL. L. Locke, R. Mask and O. H. A. Clark, Prof. J. C. Clemmons, Mewsers, John H. Whitman, E. L. Bentley, E. Galloway and J. O. Carr; Sergeant J. W. Olliespic.
As one good thing brings forth another, the Men's Forum has so stimulated the latex forces and around the dormant powers of the men of Wilmington that a plan is now under consideration whereby the charter of the Afro-American Merchant Company, a definite concern, can be secured for the accommodation and cooperation of one or several kinds, all circumstances may warrant. One hundred men have paid the initiation fee and become members of the Men's Forum and twenty men have subscribed for stock in the prospective cooperative company and deposited from $1 to $5 in cash in testimony of fairly good faith from Wilmington, where there are reporting news from this quarter to acquire the whole race on to greater achievement.
What is considered to have been the most brilliant wedding ever witnessed in this city was solemnized in St. Marks P. E. church Tuesday afternoon. June 25, at 4 o'clock, the high contracting parties being Mr. Thomas Alfred Scott of Philadelphia, Pa., formerly a resident of Washington and son of the most prominent and influential families in this city and State, and Miss Miriam Birney Nash, the beautiful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Nash, a fascinating member of Wilmington's select society and popular teacher in the city schools. Eight hundred invitations were issued among the wide circle of friends in and out of town, four hundred cards of admission being handed in at the door of the church.

THEATRICAL PEOPLE, THE CRITIC AND THE PUBLIC
"Consistency, then art a jewel," is a evidence evidently written by a fair-minded American, who at the time he composed this gem of thought had one of the cardinal traits of his countrymen in view, wit, inconsistency. While the inconsistency of the American life in what is manifest instance, I shall dwell on this strong American characteristic from a theatrical standpoint of view.
In a leading theatrical daily of New York several days ago an article was published at length reciting the views of a prominent American actor who recently went a "frost" in England. In the interview the English people were lambasted for their inconsistency and their coercing to this American actor in England they have a certain fixed idea as to what should constitute an American play, and if the atmosphere is not in accord with their views they say the play is un-American. The result: A sudden close of an indefinite engagement and the deportation Homeward of American actor and play. The greatest example of what the theatergoing public on this American river will be demonstrated next season when Williams and Walker open in their new piece, "In Bandana Land." It is needless to state, as the title suggests, that the scene will be laid in the south. Starring for several years under a management who believe in what they call "real cool shows" these two ambitions young men decided to have a change of managers and after some litigation and their vehicle for fun and music the piece entitled "Abyssinia," which was foreign to the Dixie atmosphere and truly a great

production. Yet the critics did Not consider the effort as artistic a success as the former ventures of the two comrades, as they have a certain prejudiced idea as to what should be the make-up of an Afro-American show. So Williams and others had a new season dealing with the antics and frivolities of the black man in the south.
An attempt was made recently by an Afro-American in New York to place a big colored act in one of the large vaudeville circuits. It was suggested to the booking agent that a thirty-minute play with music and comedy plus elaborate costumes be written. What we want is a coon act—a darky plantation act with darkies dressed in old plantation costumes—that or nothing. So the would-be promoter, was permitted to use his own judgment. Newspaper critics are largely responsible for the pro and con sentiment where they stand. Publicity is a great thing in the show business. Managers make money when their show is given plenty of space and favorable comment. When it comes to putting on Afro-American shows many of the managers, knowing the prejudices of most of the public, backbone and will collaborate something that they believe will be accepted by critics and public.
An illustration of prejudice and inconsistency combined will be shown in connection with an incident last week. For several weeks the papers heralded the coming of Sober Sue on the Hammerstein roof. Columns were written about her. But, alas! It leaked out that Sober Sue, was an Afro-American and all the writers suddenly got the effort on the part of the management that hostilities were resumed with pencil and pad about the debut of this chocolate-colored girl. At this writing the critics are showing a fairer spirit.
In many instances the managers are inconsistent and the Afro American actor is the victim of the criticism. Last season, an as well as the season before, Ernest Hogan was starred in a "Rufus Rastus" styled by its managers a "real coon show." From the box office reports the show "involves" the patrons unusually like the plot while a while an Afro-American, while highly pleased with Mr. Hogan's comedy, took exception to some of the situations, claiming too much "niggerism."
When spoken to on this subject Mr. Hogan said: "My managers are in the show business for what there is in it. They have nothing to do with sentiment when it's a question of dollars and cents, that star has quite a deal to say about what that star is interested in, nor pretentious he has to listen also to the people expending thousands of dollars and you know they are interested in your success—which means their success." In the mind of the writer the "Shoofly Regiment," in which 'Ole and Johnson are starring, in the best book ever written, in the most interesting situations are of a high calibre and there is a scene or two with love-making and no little dialogue. Their white patronage was not so large the season past, comparatively speaking, but it remains to be seen what kind of a drawing card they will be the coming season with the white man. For he has an easy down south thing, and he thinks in distinctly Afro-American, and we call the English critics a strange lot. LEASTER A. WALTON.
POLICE ROUGH-HOUSE IT
One Officer Slashe with a Razor and Many Hands Cracked—Few Arrests Made.
From The Sun.
A race riot that required the entire strength of the Harlem police to subdue started last Thursday night in the belt between Fifth and Eighth avenues in the neighborhood of 133d street, where the police raided a number of alleged disorderly houses a short time ago.
Ever since the police made those raids there has been much bitter feeling in the district. This was shown particularly last Tuesday night. Bicycle Policeman Genet went into the district and arrested one Paul Langham of 682 East 156th street for disorderly conduct. Langham yelled for help and a large crowd of Neptune swarmed out from the houses on the street, want to be searched. Genet was badly beaten and trampled upon before he was rescued by other policemen, who thereupon beat up the colored man. The colored people were much incensed and threats were freely exchanged. The white people of the district were also accused of urging the police on and many residents of the neighborhood received threatening letters and were told to have the vipery. The white man which was stationed on Lenox avenue was told to keep an eye open for possible trouble after the Genet incident. Bicycle Policeman Conrad shot shots last night along Lenox avenue and rode hurriedly to the place where the reports were coming from. He found colored man. William Henry Brown of 67 West 133d street, walking up and down the avenue shooting a revolver into the air and terrifying all who attempted to pass on the sidewalk. Conrad approached Brown and told him to put up a flag and stand guard. The policeman and Conrad dropped his wheel and went over to arrest him. Brown staffed to light and Conrad grabbed him by the collar.
As the policeman was heading his prisoner toward the station another Negro, who had heard Brown's call for help, ran up behind the bluecoat. The Negro reached over Conrad's shoulder and with a razor slashed the policeman's ears, nose and face until it was cut into ribbons. He then drew the razor down Conrad's back and also across his shoulders. Conrad was calling for help all the time and also fighting with Brown, who was attempting to get away.
A crowd of nearly 1,000 Negroes poured from the tenements near by and attacked the policeman. Conrad ran to the sidewalk, dangling his brimmer with him. He managed to draw the Negro over him on as to protect his body and then became unconscious. The white people of the neighborhood had also heard the shooting and fighting and they turned out. When they saw that it was a white man who
was being attacked they joined the fight and went for the Negroes. Meanwhile two other policemen, Mara and Brennan, heard Council's whistle and came to the scene.
The fight then became a general mixup between the whites and the Negroes. Enough whites turned out to give the Negroes the fight was in progress. They tried him to the house at 97 West 133rd street. In a fist on the third floor they found Brown and a woman named May Robinson. The man was overcome after a fight and taken back to the scene of the fight. Conrad was able to identify him, but said that he was not the man who had slashed him.
The police headquarters got word of the riot orders were telephoned to the East 126th street station and the West 125th street station to turn out the reserves and hustle all the available men to 133rd street and Lenox avenue.
Two patrol wagons got to the corner as quickly as possible and dumped the two sets of reserves squarely into the West 125th street station. All the were about fifty policemen, on hand and they jumped into the mixup without wasting any time.
Some of the Negroes had pistols in their hands and one or two shots were fired just as the reserves got there. Others were brandishing razors and cursing the few policemen that were trying to arrest the men who had attacked Conrad.
Conrad, with eight deep shiesies over his head and shoulders, had been carried into a drug store on the corner by half a dozen white people, who had nerve enough to get into the fight and face the angry blacks. A surgeon from Harlem josse was there and that he was also injured internally from kicks in the abdomen and in the crotch.
The fifty policemen formed solidly and drove the Negroes up Lenox avenue, calling on them to disperse and get to their homes. A few at a time they were shoerled into the side streets and into their homes, and except for a few shots over the policemen's heads, which did no harm, and a lot of sweating they made. Detective Kuntze of the West 125th street station had trouble with a big young Negro named Carroll Ames, who said he lived at 181 West 135th street. Kuntze ordered him to behave himself and get into his house. Ames swore at him, reached into his pocket and pulled a pistol. Kuntze promptly drew his own gun, fired two or three times over the Negro's head and then batted him over the head with the butt end of the revolver. He was subdued in short order. The police asked to get away in the confusion while the police were charging the rioters up Lenox avenue. They also arrested John Sims, colored, who paid he was a messenger employed at the Brooklyn navy yard and lived at 171 West 135th street: Charles Williams of 11 West Ninety-fifth street, Tilgman Trotlin of 6 East 135th street and James Jefferson of 19 West 135th street.
Dr. Rossano of Harlem Hospital, who attended Policeman Conrad, said that Conrad was badly hurt, but had a chance for survival. A number of Negroes executed vengeance upon Thomas Wright, who on Friday evening identified Joseph Beale as the black man who had slashed Policeman Conrad with a razor in the Fourth

"There's the guy who got Joe pinched!" said one as Wright approached. The remark seemed to be a sort of signal. They all piled onto Wright and beat and kicked Wright was struck down and punished. Wright was pulled away by white men came to the rescue and a considerable battle followed. The police were called for and the reserves from the West 125th street station lost no time, getting there. The work of the last few days had made them alert in covering calls from that district. The East 125th street station at the same time. The Negroes did not wait for the arrival of the police, so that there was nothing to do but to attend to Wright when the reserves got there. Wright was carried to his home, which is no great distance away and a call was sent for an ambulance. The Deux from Harlem Hospital said that he had a fractured skull and that he was in a bad way. Wright was taken to the hospital. Joseph Beale was identified by Ernest Wright as a man whom he had seen slashing Policeman Conrad with a razor. Wright, who lives at 350 Lenox avenue, is said to have approached a policeman who on the fight got hottest on Thursday. He was taken from the man who had cut Conrad. He was taken from the policeman's sight, however, when the fight was at its hottest and the crowd came pressing in. Two detectives who had a pretty clear idea of what Conrad's assault looked like arrested Beale, who lives at 146 143th Street. Then they hunted up Wright. He made the identification. Beale was locked up charged with felonies assault.
William H. Brown and Carroll Amos were arrested after the trouble on Thursday and arraigned in the Harlem police court Friday morning. Magistrate Whitman held Brown without bail to await the result of Conrad's injuries. Amos was taken in 5,400 bail for examination, Charlie, William H. Brown, with inciting a riot, were fined $5. One man was discharged, James Jefferson, charged with throwing stones at the police, got six months.
On Saturday afternoon it is charged that a gang of Negroes at 135th street and Lenox avenue set upon Thomas Wright, who on Friday evening identified Joseph Bolee as the black man who had killed him. Conrad with a rasor. Wright was struck and amputated most severely. Several white men to the rescue and a considerable battle followed. The police were called for and the reservoirs from the West 125th street station lost no time getting there. The Negroes did not wait for the arrival of the police, so that there was nothing to do but to attend to Wright when the reservoirs got there. Wright was carried to big house, with no great distance away, and a call was sent to ambulance. Jr. Dr. from Harlem Hospital said that Wright had a fractured skull and that he was in a very bad way. Wright was taken to the hospital.
Mrs. R. W. 811 and family, of 104 West Village, have gone to their country home at Harlem Sound, where they will spend the summer.
PRICE, 5 CENTS
First Exhibition of Year's Work Secures New $20,000 Building for Frederick Douglass Center
CHICAGO, July 8. It sometimes appears that what is fondly called "old time religion" of the older denominations is not sufficient for some of the present generation of up-to-date colored people. Some of them, like other progressive people, generally seek new ways an outlet for their religious will, pulse. Following the Biblical injunction, "Seek and Ye Shall Find," some of us are finding "the way" to be through Christian Science, and others through the Christian Catholic Church in Zion, established by Dowie.
In the magnificent Christian Science Temple on Drexel Boulevard of this city, we quite a large number of Afro-American women occupying at the shrine of Mrs. Eddy. The same converts to these new faiths that they never knew the power and joy of real religion until now, although in many a covenant and class meeting in Baptist and Methodist churches they have said the same thing many and many a time. But let us not quarrel with these demands, for we faith our only concern is that they shall find the faith that they say and prove their faith by that
But Mrs. Eddy's shrine is not the only one at which our progressive few how in reverence. The late Alexander Dowle, though dead, has a goodly number of Afro-American followers who regarded him as a saviour of men. There are at least two prominent ministers of the colored Methodist church, who are now duly owed and consecrated by the church of the Christian Catholic church in Zion. They are Rev. D. A. Graham and Rev. George Slater. Mr. Graham was one of the strongest ministers of the A. M. E. church. He has had some of the best appointments in the gift of the church. For many he was pastor of Bethesda A. M. E. church of this city and a trot. Though apparently a good Methodist, he was never in entire accord with some of the tenets and policies of the M. E. church. He was stupid, progressive and concientiously hold in stating his disagreement with certain conditions of his church. He always no announcement was made in the daily and weekly papers that Dr. D. A. Graham was to preach at one of the Howie congregations in Chicago and his theme was to be "Why I Left the Methodist Church." A large number of his former followers in the Methodist church, members of his congregation and friends were out to ear him, expecting him to leave. However, they were disappointed. While he was outspoken in concerning irregularities in the administration of church interests and the tolerance of unfit men in the pulpit, his chief reasons for leaving were purely doctrinal. Two-thirds of the audience were white Dowlefriends, listened to this colored convert with as much adherence as if he had been an ambassador from the courts of heaven.
In the church of Zion there is perfect and hearty fellowship among the members. In Zion there can be no such thing as black and white, therefore, no color congregation and no number of the doctrines of Dowie makes all numbers of our war. Mr. George Slater, the other ordained colored minister in Zion, has a white congregation and their attitude toward him is free, natural and genuine. Mr. Slater is a man of strong character, a fluent speaker and a hard student. Both he and Graham represent a good type of minister of good moral character and faithful and fearless in the performance of duty, as they see it. This church and their colored pastor exemplify the Christlike spirit of equality and brotherhood more strongly than any other denomination I have ever seen. We may think of Dowie's doctrine and sense of faithfulness, the Protestant church can learn much from him and his followers as to what constitutes Christianity in human relationships. The Young People's Athletic Association of the Frederick Douglass Center gave an exhibition of their skill and experience. We saw a day night, that quite astonished the large audience that greeted their first public performance. If one had not known the people and the whole situation, it might easily have been believed that they were a company of professional acrobats. Every day something of this kind reveals the courage and race and gives us a comfortable sense of what no one can outdo them in things that are possible for human beings to do.
Announcement has been made that in consequence of the aptitude of the young men and their fitness for gymnastics opportunities as shown in the first exhibition of year's work, a well-equipped gymnastium is assured, to cost not less than $20,000. The usual influx of summer visitors is upon us. Hundreds of teachers and students from the South and other parts of the country, are pouring into Chicago for study and recreation. Each season brings to us new faces and new names. On the coast, they are intending group of visitors. They are intending visitors. They are best amongst us in this land of progress. They are generally prosperous, hopeful and confident. They bring but few complaints, though they acknowledge the hard conditions that everywhere beset them; they are splendidly developed; and in the language of Browning, declamation of heaven, all's well with the world." A race that has faith in its own high destiny is bound to get on in the world. FANNIE BARNER WILLIAMS.
COLOR LINE IN ENGLAND.
Negro Youth Unable to Fallil Either in
the Army or Navy.
LONDON. July 3.—The admiralty and war office have both drawn the color line against a youth born in London of a Negro, father and English mother. On the death of his parents the Strand board of guardians took charge of the boy, who has now grown up and desires to serve his country, but the authorities refuse to permit him to callist in either the navy or the army.
This hanning of a British subject because of his color promises to lead to a lively discussion jin Parliament, where the matter will shortly be brought up.
Kimsonwu, July 8.—There are thousands of Afro-Americans in the South fully capable of engineering the power plants of the largest factories in the country, but why is it they do not readily find employment in this department of American industry? The silk mill at Fayetteville, N. O., answers this interrogation. Mr. Charles H. Albright, an Afro-American, had charge of this mill's power plant, which consists of one 400 horse power engine to drive the machinery, one 150 horse power engine to drive the machinery, and two 250 horse power engines. This man was prepared for the work and the mill made an opportunity for him. Afro-American management made it possible for this man to be employed.
It is a convincing truth that our people must be able to employ Afro-American machinists before our machinists can become permanently employed. As a rule white stockholders and managers of factories will not employ them. This condition forces us to stimulate our people to become manufacturers, etc., so that this increasing army of skilled bread winners may survive. The boys and girls of the youth are not so economically envirored to become as highly proficient as the boys and girls of our factory, providing a develop themselves in textile mills and other factories. But when our young people are given a chance in our own mills and factories our chances in the industrial world are made 100 per cent better.
"Necessity is the mother of invention." When an Afro American young man is daily employed running a delicate mechanism he often uses the necessity of adding a certain device to his machinery which will increase the output. Could this young man do this if he were not steadily employed and his machinery made nearly a part of himself. The same activity takes one's perception keen and acts as a stimulus which makes man's progress wonderful. Inactivity produces a sluggish man and causes him not to create the things he actually needs.
If the white people of the North had not combined their moneys in past years when the spinning wheel and other antiquated devices were in operation would the young men and women of the white races have been employed in the manufacturing centers of New England and the West? Would these manufacturing sections have become as they are to-day, with their fine civic improvements, political control, educational Means for the New World, homes of the philanthropists and the cradle of art, learning and education of the country, would all of these achievements have been a living monument had it not been for the creating and fostering of manufacturing industries by the pioneers of the North West and Northwest?
Our people must combine their money to build commercial houses, factories and mills and create all kinds of legitimate enterprises and stop becoming "injurers" of things whose management do not use their money judiciously and fail to see the advantage to be gained in promoting safe investments for the investors. Our young people at work in the Afro-American silk mills of the South (L mean as Afro-American operatives in the silk mills) after becoming accustomed to mill life one will find them punctual, regular and efficient in their work and with the machinery running at a high rate of speed they perform as much work as any male operatives in the country and with the young people in the company. Dr. Thurston's management, coupled with the productive capacity of his operatives, has made the silk mills at Fayetteville and Kingston, N. C., phenomenal successes. GEOBIE F. KING.

MUNMAG, Min., July 4—Governor James K. Vardeman and the Hon. John Sharp Williams not here in joint debate the morning before an audience of probably 10,000 people. The debate opened at 10:30, Mr. Williams leading, and closed at 8:30 with Mr. Vardeman rejoinder. Mr. Williams answered in part, "What is the reason to advocate impersonalities but men to do things. One thing I know, and that is if Mr. Vardeman should enter the Senate agitating the repeal of the fifteenth amendment; he would come out with a drastic enforcement of the fourteenth amendment. If such a thing as the repeal of the fifteenth amendment could be brought about without retaliating, New York would not be without retaliating in politics I would work for it vote for it and do anything in my power possible to get it, but it looks to me as impossible."
Mr. Williams said: "The repeal of the fifteenth amendment would be accomplished only by a two-thirds majority in both houses of Congress. If Mr. Vardaman was sincerely in favor of this why did he not in his long service in Legislature of Mississippi to have it recommended to have it? Why did he not try to get it recommended during his three and a half years' term as governor."
"Mr. Vardaman is getting in the habil of finding too many liars," William said. "The Jackson News is a liar and toowe questions the stenographer hired by me, whom I never saw or heard of before me. I hired him. Then he discovers that The Times-Democrat and The Gulf Port Tribune are also liars." Continuing, he said: "amided him how he would amend the fourteenth amendment and have never received an answer. Now, my friends, I will ask you. Do you want the yankee to take charge of the Negro question?"
Answers came loudly: "No, No, No, No!"
"Now, this agitation would simply mean the enforcement of the fourteenth and not the repeal of the fifteenth amendment. As far as I can see the door of hope is already closed on the Negro politically. It is not the Negro politically, nor is it meant to Mississippi. It is the Negro himself. He is cut out of the franchise now, but it is him we fear and not his vote."
The surrejoinder by Mr. Vardaman was not a success. He went to pieces under the sharp tongue and watchful eye of Williams. Several times he undertook to quote Mr. Williams was halted by the congressman and admitted himself in error. The crowd howled with delight at these tiltas.
Mr. Vardaman begged for silence, saying he had sat in his wet clothing until hosee, but wanted a fair hearing. He finished with an appeal to the voters for a chance to show in the Senate to the people of the north the status of the Negro question. He said that if elected to the Senate he would let those who not know the real danger of Negro suffrage know the exact condition of affairs to the south, again he warmed to subject and said: "I am not of those who are glad that the Countercaster failed in her purpose. I would rather live under the stars and bars, rather Jefferson Davis, than under the Stars and Stripes with Theodore Roosevelt as President of the United States." This statement was cheered to the echo.

Your correspondent has reference to the replying of white help by Afro-Americans at the "Inside Inn hotel," Jamestown Expedite-
his change speaks volumes in itself for Mr. Smith and the Afro-American hotel employee at this time, who has been hired out of this particular availance of employment. This change emphasizes the importance of being efficient in services and transactions, and encourages your commitment as being all of this and something more. He is a man who inspires confidence and commands respect. He had more such leaders, would be more present factor in the industries of the country. Your correspondent knows men who are in position to secure a deal" for him, but who do not do it because they are too "cowardly and selfish" to do it, and half of our troubles in this class of employees are in the various departments.

Bishop Henry McNeil) Turner 0
Georgia is constantly getting mixed uf
with the Star Spangled Banner, for whict
he appears to have no good blood. A
short time ago he shot into the fay
with sizzling words, in an address at Av-
gusta, we believe, and had the news:
papers all over thundering volleys. of
heavy artillery about his head; then, in
a Sunday address in Brooklyn recently,
he fired more sizzling words into the
-flag which the daily newspapers, noted
as a imatter of mews but ignored as a
matter of opinion,
‘An Ace correspondent, in the issue

and gives him a word spanking which

makes a man like Bishop Turner despise
the white race and so far forget what
he owes to his country as to speak in
terms of disrespect of its flag. That is
bad, but there are millions of Afco-

Turner does and they have plenty of
justification for the feeling—the same
feeling ‘of wrong and outrage which

Seeregstion in Politicos Bangoreut
“A few morithe ago am Afro-Americar
in the city of Chicago wap nominated
on the regular Republican ticket, for a
judgeship. Immediately our people. of
that city gave ® out that they were going
to elect an Afro:American judge. This
agitation of the race quéstion in connec-
tion with the judgeship drew the white
people together.and as a result they voted
against the, Afro-American and he was
defeated. Had the Afro-Americans of
Chicago gone quietly ahead’ and workec
to elect the ticket, without calling at-
tention to the’ fact that an Afro-Ameri-
can: was a candidate for judge, there is
no doubt, that he would have been
elected.
There is a great lesson in this for ali
of us. Just now there is a great danger
that the Afro-American in the North
may become segregated in polities, as he
is im the South. We mean that white
voters may band themselves together to
defeat anyone whom the Afro-Americans
may support. Should this ever occur.
and there is a real danger of it, the
Afro-American in the North will be
stripped of his power at the ballot-box.
Already in Ohio there is a feeling that
the entire white vote will go to Taft
because the Afro-Americans are against
him, Whenever it comes to an issue,
or a test of strength the white people are
going to stand by each other ind band
together to crush the Afro-American.
Much of the agitation. however, is
started by 2 little clique of white men
ho are sccking to feather their own
nests by using the .\fro-American for
what they can get out of him, and when
they have accomplished their purpose
they will throw him over just as the
“Lily Whites” have done in the South.

Washington League in the Employment of Afro-American Labor-Employment.
WASHINGTON, July 8. A quiet-spirited and order-living resident of this city once remarked: "There will be one feature of heaven where the streets will not be no longer as they are here with steam rollers and horseheads of pitch." Washington's streets and avenues are admired by the tourists and visitors, who constantly increasing numbers view them, and even when they are "born up" the whole of their migratory journey by the tourists and visitors, who are distressed. native. For more than two years his highways and byways have been in a state of upheaval owing to the constructing and the erection of the new union depot involving the tunnelling of Capital Hill, the regrading and consequent reclamation of a large section of the city, and the vast improvement of the entire engineering section. Wonderful engineering feats have characterised these operations which have entailed enormous expense. Labor has been at a premium, and nearly States could not supply, northern Italy has furnished. The Italian design has been one of the important industrial events of the National Capital Region, and nearly States could have held its own and is proving its superiority.
Pennsylvania avenue, one of the most famous and historic highways of the world, is just now in eruption, undergoing what may be a final transformation. The "city fathers," the triumvirate who are ever alert to beautify and improve the mitigation of the Capital, and Congress have decided that the avenue is too low and have decreed "hold water" and the spectacle which this judgment and decision have produced engages the attention of the populace all the way from Sixth street, the entrance of the Pennsylvania Avenue at the Wing House. A ridge is to be made in the avenue which involves the raising of it at "different points from five to twelve inches" and a corresponding lowering of it at other points. The avenue is the whole length of the avenue, and the relaying and reconstruction of the street railways lines and telephone wires and mains. The observer standing at the junction of bourbon and the street car can traverse the street car as they traverse the scene of operation witnesses a sight that causes him elicter to linger long in observation or at great risk to protrude his head from window to the world. In the space of eight blocks something like seven hundred men are busily working the transformation, more than ninety percent of whom are Afro-Americans, of the ones of Italy and of white men prominently interprinkled. There in the broiling heat of Washington summer weather, intensified by the almost boiling heat of concrete the black and brown lines of the avenue, brain with endurance and resignation of spirit that win the plaudits of the public. Not only are they fulfilling to the letter the injunction "six days shall thorn labor," but they are also fulfilling to the seventh day" with pick, shovel or drill is hand.
Very few cities employ on the public works or constructive operations by private contract no large a number of Negro laborers in Washington, and nowhere in the country. The workers either between the employer and employee or black and white laborers engaged in such work. 'Side by side and with remarkably good fellowship black and white laborers and artisans leave up the building, and the workers stall the electric conduit. In the building operations, and upon government buildings at that, the lines of employment are sometimes sharply drawn, but happily the demand for both skilled and unskilled laborers is so great that practically no building is so great that those who are able and willing to work.
The Afro-American workman is the chief industrial asset here as he is in the South and has been since the Fortune-seeking gentry who almost started under the influence of the French have been fused to work. They practically monopolize all the walks of common service and are rapidly taking rank in important skilled employments. In street and railroad work, in mining and quarrying, and in the heavier construction work, but in the more delicate performance of mechanical and engineering tasks. The two leading construction companies of this city employ almost entirely the zero workman in all grades of work, and the engineering department of the District of Columbia. The Brennan and Granford companies whose concreting operations extend over the whole of the United States and Europe, depend upon Negro labor wages range from $1.50 to $3 per day.
Much is being said these days about the Negro leaving the country and migrating to the land for locating work, some explanation, for locating work and the work that pays the highest wage. American cities are being remodeled and partly built and the demand for labor is growing. The need for roads work all the year round is scarce and wages have been exceedingly low. The men are going where there is, and the women are occasionally a dearth of agricultural labor and a consequent agitation of the question of immigration. The South especially chaninor for immigration, it seems, "because it is totally a labor problem, imply solved. The content-loving class in dependent towns is dependent upon the wages and freedom from unjust restraints in the
opportunity to expand and make local citizens. Where there are about a dozen in lieu of be a seer. The assimilation will add to the difficulty. It will inevitably give rise to problems quite more serious than any it now imagines to eat. Not that there is not room for more people to join the workforce. Those whose industry and frugality will greatly enhance the prosperity of the South, but there must be also the breaking up of large estates and a willingness to complete the completion of his skin.
At this time when the agitation for foreign labor in the South is at its height and when the machinery of government, and when the military being worked overtime in that behalf, it is fortunate that the capital city of the nation is furnishing such a splendid spectacle of the efficiency, contentment and beauty of its citizens. Thousands of visitors are at this season panning through here from all parts of the country to visit the exposition in Virginia. They will there find much to appreciate of the beauty of the nation of the South were the fruit of Negro labor, and here in the heyday of the nation's prosperity they will find him a prominent factor in the remodeling and beautifying of the seat of the nation.

THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1907
FRATERNAL NEWS OF THE ELKS OF THE CITY AND STATE
Special and Interactive Works of Ridley-
New Lodge Installed.
To uphold the dignity of the Bistern lodges it was decided immediately after the adjournment of the last grand convention in Brooklyn, to form a club and attend the Grand Lodge Convention, at Chicago, in August, 1807. Since the Bistern lodges have formed a transportation committee to arrange ways and means and secure a special train to the convention, and every preparation to attend the sessions of the Eliza annual convention at Chicago in August is being done by the transgender members of the Bistern lodges. The East are placing their shoulders to the wheel and intend to put their best foot forward to insure success for this year's convention. But between the present time and then, there are many matters to be attended to. We have the opportunity to insure success will be made for the care of the leftovers and visitors.
The advantage to the tribe of visiting the convention of the Grand Lodge, held under such favorable circumstances, and with a representative attendance of our members, is that we prove most pleasant, moreover, as a reunion of those who have so often been together in grand sessions, and as an opportunity for discussion of subjects of our interest and current interest cannot be doubted. July 1, Brooklyn Lodge, No. 32, held its first monthly business meeting. The treasurer and secretary read their semi-formal address, and the balance of money in trust. The reports were received and placed into the hands of the finance committee to be audited. The application of Mr. George A. Epps to the treasurer and secretary initiated the first meeting in August. Brother John D. Porter, of Anacritchic Lodge, No. 57, Scranton, Pa., honored us with a visit and was cordially received and made welcome to our assembly committee. The picnic committee reported progress and the prospects now are that: Brooklyn Lodge picnic on July 16, at Ulmer Park, will have the largest gathering of the members of the tribe ever before known in the Empire State.
A unique feature in the afternoon will be the athletic games and feats. The Marathon Athletic Club of the Carlton avenue Y. M. C. A. branch, under the direction of E. Luins and Secretary J. H. Woods, Jr. will compete. I shall have pleasure in bringing their feats to the attention of THE ACK readers at an early date. At the recent installation of officers in the Badger Lodge no. 088, Long Island City, Burlington, was installed with the degree of a past exalted ruler, with all the honors pertaining to the high degree in the forest of Elkdom. The duties of Brother Thomas are such that Dunbar Lodge early recognized his worth to the tribe, fitting recognition conferred the degree upon him for exceptional service.
The Ladies' Club of Queen's Borough who will shortly organize a court, has adopted the name of Dunbar Volunteers to the officers: Mrs. J. Mason, ladies 77th avenue, president; Mrs. W. A. Kenny, vice-president; Mrs. W. H. Carps, treasurer; Mrs. W. H. Thomas, in卧 155th street, Manhattan, in卧 156th are making great success and we extend to them our hearty best wishes and encouragement. May their success be unlimited in such a worthy undertaking. Mrs. W. H. Thomas, in卧 156th reported that his wife died Thursday, June 27. Resolutions of condolence were drafted through the secretary and expressed to Brother Robinson. In卧 124, in the city of Allegheny, Pa. was established by Deputy G. W. Frazier, P.E.R. Iron City Lodge, No. 17, with seventy members. G. William Frazier is working strenuously to establish other lodges in the city to meet the meeting of the Grand Lodge is Annual.
June 25, Pilgrim Lodge, No. 125, North Fork Pa., was instituted by State District Deputy G. William Frazier. On July he established Coke City Lodge, No. 126, at Campbellville with thirty-five members, and granted Grand Secretary J. Welford Holmes foregoing information relative to the new lodges recently instituted and installed. We are reliably informed that five other lodges of the "other wing" will be accepted on their petitions some time during the month; the necessary legal documents of affiliation will be com- mplied with the lodges will be an interpid part of our fraternity.
The Order of Elks open opportunities to those of the tribe who want work, and incurs industry and stimulates thrift, in a strongly centralized organization, offsetting the negative effects visibly by well-paid attorneys of great ability, and is working with definite ideo to guide it in every State, in every county, in every city, and in every borough, promotes self-respect, self-courage, builds the community, benefits homeowners, mentally and physically without the slightest popperizing effect. It promotes civic pride in all of its branches at no cost to taxpayers, and permits expense to the tribe, especially in the mentions bestowed. You are cordially invited to join us in extending the sacred principles of Elkdom in your vicinity. It is succeeding in the most substantial instances, and are the servants of a most common tribe who believe in the teachings of Christ—the Supreme Grand Exalted Ruler of the World. W. Preston Mourn.

As long ago as the last national convention in Denver the Elks were, considering action against the Afro-American movement, appointed to investigate the matter, has taken no action, so will have no report to make at this convention. When the State convention was held in Harrisonburg a month ago, with every bodge of the lawyers appointed to the committee of three lawyers was appointed to make an investigation and prepare for a test case. This committee consisted of Robert J. Byron, Philadelphia; William K. Reedy, Seranton. Although it has held several meetings and done much work is the matter of laying plans for legal proceedings it has not acted officially, for the lawyers as yet is not recognized by the grand lodge as a competent body to administrate. In the order of Elks there are no intermediary tribunals between the local lodge and grand lodge. That is why the grand lodge has no conformity with the requirements of the

grand lodge the Philadelphia lodge of
white Elks appointed a committee of its
own, having in view the same thing that
the state convention sought to accoun
dlish.
The Elks claim that they have no quarrel with the Afro-Americans as a race, but they have been encroached upon their name they would be ashamed of the same. This agitation seems to be all for naught, as the name of the lodge here in Philadelphia is the Octavius V. to lodge 29, and the emblems are entirely different from the lodges. A morning paper published in this city seemed to think that if southern white Elks saw Afro-Americans wearing Elk emblems it might incite to riot, but the emblems are rediculous and not worthy of consideration.
C. Grant Williams, exalted ruler of O. V. Catto box, No. 29, and State grand exalted ruler of I. B. P. O. E. W. girded lodge of the State of Pennsylvania to the city, says: "If there is any blood shed during the coming Elks' convention the North American should be held for inciting a riot. The Afro American Elks of this city and state have no desire to leave or to inquire in any way with the R. O. Elks. We have white men who are citizens of the United States and its possessions. On several occasions white men with Afro American elks have applied for admission to our lodge and they have been denied admission. We have given particular instructions to warn them not to wear the emblem of the white Elks of the United States and if we catch any of them wearing the said buttons they will be immediately brought to trial and punished. I have given orders to all of our members not to participate in the abate Elks during their convention, the week of the 15th. And should the Elks

be planning to enforce Georgia legislation by the adoption of mob rule I appeal to your honor for protection. As a lawabiding citizen I do not intend to sur-
sumer any of the rights guaranteed to Americans under Old Glory.
The entire Afro-American population in the vicinity of Twenty-ninth and Alter streets was so frightened that many of policemen in need of medical assistance as the result of Afro-American policeman trying to arrest a white man. To prevent a recurrence a number of policemen patrolled that vicinity all night. The disturbance occurred in a neighborhood known as one of strong race feeling. Complaints reached the Fitzwater station that a crowd of loafers were hanging at Twenty-ninth and Alter streets. John Richardson, an Afro-American police officer, an Afro-American police officer, before he could give the orders two-face of them made a rush for him; knocked him down and took his club and blackjack away from him. Richardson used his gun, firing several times into the building at bay. It was but that two were shot. Riot cells were immediately sent in and when the reserves arrived they found Richardson surrounded by a motley crowd, but still holding on to his prisoner. Upon the appearance of the police officer in arrest, the man, but they succeeded in arresting three of them, who were locked up.

Interstate Communication Builds Backward
May Provide Separate, But Not Indirect
Cause.
From The Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 8.-The Interstate Commerce Commission in a decision to-day in the case of Georgia, Bibbards against the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis halliburst, held that where a railroad provides certain accommodations for a first-class passenger of the white race it is commanded by the law that like accommodations shall be provided for Negroes who have purchased first-class tickets. It holds that in this case it is manifest that the railroad "has unduly and unjustly discriminated in some partitions and not colored passengers," and orders that where the railroad provides a wash bowl and towels in the matches for white passengers and a separate smoking compartment, similar accommodations shall be provided for Negro passengers paying similar fare.
The complainant, who had purchased a first-class ticket, from Chattanooga, Teen., to Dalton, Ga., was removed from a car for white persons to one for Negroes and complained that she was criminated against because her color and not afforded equal facilities. Commissioner Lane, who required the commission's decision to hold: "The expense of the small smoking compartment in the latter (the car for whites) account for nearly all the difference in between the two cars."
He holds that the broad question of the right under the Thirteenth and Fourteenth amendments of the Constitution to have been upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States. The opinion concludes:
"Accepting these decisions as conclusive upon the constitutionality of such laws, we turn to the consideration of such reasonableness of such a case, and the imposed by the case, that this we find to be carried upon by this commission in the case of Council vs. Warren and Atlantic Railroad Company, which was decided December 3, 1887, and held this separation motion, but on railroad trains, without disadvantage to either race, and with increased com
fort to the "Again. In Heart vs. Georgia Railroad Company, decided February 15, 1888, the commission, held that the separation of white and colored passengers paying the same fare is not unlawful. if cars and accommodations equal in all respects are furnished to both and the same care and protection of passengers is observed.
"While, therefore, the reasonableness of such regulation as to interstate passenger traffic is established, it by no means follows that carriers may discriminate between white and colored passengers in the accommodations they furnish to each. The principle that they govern is that the carriers must serve equally all passengers, whether white or paying the same fare. Failure to do this is discrimination and subjects the passenger to "urdure and unreasonable prejudice and disadvantage."

KINK·NE
Great Hair Straightener and Grower
Most Wonderful Discovery ever made for curly, kinky and knotty hair. Makes hair grow long, straight soft, and silky; 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 50 years, and who, after much time and experience, has prepared this great test for the colored people.
This chemist says that his experience and study have taught him that the scalp of the colored people require 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, curas dandruff, makes the hair soft and silky, and by nourishing the roots it gives 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. 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 our full-size bottle of Kink-ine, price $20 cents, one ounce of Kink-ine Song, the best shampoo and Tulet Soap in the world, price $20 cents for only $30 cents, or six bottles and six ounces of song for $80. Special offer good only at the following stores:

Will be the net result of purchasing one or more of the 232 lots which we are now offering for sale at West New Brighton, Staten Island, First Ward, Borough of Richmond.
WEST NEW BRIGHTON is the most exclusive residential section of Staten Island, commanding an excellent view of New York Bay and the surrounding country. West New Brighton is just thirty-five minutes from the Battery via the new Municipal $5,000,000 Ferry. Trolleys pass this property. Besides this, the property is well situated, nice high grounds, good drainage, and has all the improvements, such as sewer, water, gas, electric lights, macadamized streets, excellent schools, churches of all denominations, and social life not to be found in the city, where one does not know his neighbor across the hall. This is a very desirable place for residence on account of its accessibility and its surroundings. Considering its nearness to the Borough of Manhattan, it is perhaps a surprising statement that the climate of Staten Island is radically different from that of Manhattan. The air is possessed of invigorating properties, the effect of which is felt in the first hour. The explanation is not far to seek. The ocean and the beautiful hills of Staten Island perform their allotted tasks. Here instead of bricks and mortar, radiating at night their accumulated heat of the day, the trees and shrubs and well-kept lawns send forth their cool fragrance as a stonic to the tired nerve.
New York has all the population it can hold, rentals have increased out of all proportion to the accommodations furnished, and the flat dweller has been compelled to turn to outside territory to secure a suitable home. Hence all suburban localities have been benefited by Manhattan's prosperity, but none to such a remarkable extent, nor with such infinite possibilities as Staten Island.
Remember there are only 232 of these lots, and we are selling them for $250 to $500 each which does not represent a half of their real value.
We will make terms to suit the purchaser, therefore be quick and write, or 'phone.

Susan B. Anthony, Resewell Jeffrey, Mr. Douglas, Our Soldiers and Sailors Have Windows.
ROCHETTE, N. Y., July 5—June 28, 1908, the contractors, commenced demolishing the A. M. E. Zion Church our Favor street, the old landmark in that section of the city, where it has been built. Of the many exciting scenes have been enacted. Among the most interesting events of its history was during the life of Rev. Thomas James and Frederick Douglas, who used to hold anti-slavery meetings until night and then take them either to the residence of Miss Susan B. Anthony army post or Frederick Douglas, there being safely guarded until they could escape to Canada with pride to the old site, where the A. M. E. Zion Memorial Church is being erected. The new church has been talked of for many years and was the fondest dream of many faithful Christians who have long since joined the majority.
Rev. J. W. Brown came to this city in June, 1905, and after looking the field over selected his board of trustees. The trustees elected J. W. Thompson, president: Hemet Arnold, secretary; Charles E. Coleman, treasurer; W. Thompson, chairman of the building committee. Mr. Thompson selected the building committee and appointed Edgar Parks secretary. Hon. H. C. Brewer was selected treasurer for the fund. On the departure of Mr. Parks from the city Mrs. J. J. Jeffery succeeded Mr. Parks in the building committee. The pastor, all of the church clubs, trustee board, the members of the church and friends have aided zealously, honestly and faithfully the building committee and as a result of their united effort they have nearly completed one of the harshest workings York. The church will be truly a memorial one.
Mrs. R. J. Jeffrey was given charge of the windows. They will cost nearly $1,000. There will be a beautiful large stained glass window in memory of the Miss Anson J. C. Preston Johnson Jeffrey and one for the soldiers and sailors.
Hardwood pews have been ordered, with hair cushions; a pipe organ and a chandelier. A reading committee has promised to fit up a reading room. The edifice will be first class and up to date, which is an indication that our city desire our city desire the clips.
The first entertainment in the new church will take place Aug. 18, when the window in memory of Frederick Douglas will be unveiled. Fortiorum flowers are accompanied with flowers, plants and sage. "His Name Shall Live Forever," the song sung at the unveiling of the Douglas monument, will be rendered. The poem by T. Thomas Forney, "The Wonderful Douglas" monument will be read by Mimi Abbie Franklin. Symposium: "The worth of Douglas to the nation and his race." Some of the ablest ministers in New York are to take part. The musical part of the programme will be managed by Mrs. J. G. Lee. organist. The week in fact, will be one of jubilee. The Anthony soldiers, and sailors and Jef. the soldiers are to be unveiled during the week.
On Thursday evening, Aug. 22, J. C. Price window, Hon. J. C. Dancy has been invited to make the address, Mr. Dancy will be the host, and his good friend. It is therefore fitting and proper that he make the address. Bishop A. Walters has also been invited to be present. Sunday, Aug. 25, the church is to be dedicated and it is the ex-convict of the Western New York Conference will be present. Bishop Harris and others have promised to be on hand. While the co-director are planning for the dedication they have not lost sight of the day that they must raise $15,000 by July 15.
Gertrude A. Thompson graduated from No. 12 grammar school June 18 and entertained her teacher and the ten young girls of the class at the Masonic Club June 4. The table was handsomely and carefully set up, and the class colors. Your correspondent recently returned from New York and while there he visited THE NEW YORK AGE office, which is large and airy, with plenty of light. The printing presses all their own, and it is the most complete printing office of any owned and controlled by Afro-American citizens. Such a printing establishment is indeed a great credit to the race and its owners. While being conducted through the plant by Mr. Fortune and one of his mana, explaining the working machine, he told that he printed 10,000 AGE weekly. I was somewhat surprised at that, because we number nearly 10,000,000 citizens in this country and only 10,000 of the conceded best Afro-American newspaper read by us. The number to a race of people who all claim to be working for race uplift. If the race would read more of what we are going in such papers as THE AGE all would be better equipped to defend the race against false and malicious charges. We work from life, other fellows than from Afro-Americans. The Afro-Americans some time will learn to support the business enterprises of their own race.
St. Louis to Have a Jim Crow Law.
St. Louis, July 8—A bill was introduced by Delegate Vincent McShane, an attorney, in the City House of Delegates to night providing separate compartments in all street and other railway cars in St. Louis. The bill would require that a room be equally divided and a penalty of $100 is provided for a person of either color invading the compartment of the other. The bill was advanced to second reading without opposition and stands a fair show to be passed.

Fresh Encounter—Summer Notes
of the City.
WASHINGTON, July 8—The public schools of this city are a neverending source of interest and those in charge of them are constantly in the public eye. Last week, fresh excitements of Beta Alpha Delta Baird from membership in the board of education. Admiral Baird was elected president of the board last July and has served one year under the new organization and has not found the position as congressional as commanding a naval record. An effort has been made to make it appear that he retired from the board on account of the race question. That question has in various ways puzzled and embarrassed that body, but it was not the abolitionist in any sense and not accounted to association with the Afro-Americans, and especially to the high and freezed politics that is often involved therein. he was quite popular in certain quarters as head of the educational system. Sunday July 11, Captain James F. Oyster was elected president of the board. Captain Oyster is a prominent figure in the commercial life of this city. He is proud to be known as a "plain, blunt man" and has seemingly desired to have the good will of the public. He is not a circumstantia over which perhaps he has not had control, this he has not generally enjoyed.
Prof. Arthur D. Langston has been a welcome visitor here. He came to pay a short visit to his mother and has had a general good time all around. On Monday evening, July 1, he was at the gates of Prof. Kelly Miller. On the spacious and beautiful lawn of Prof. Miller's home a large number of representative citizens assembled to greet and toast him. Educators, professional and business men were glad to honor the achievement and so successful educator as Prof. Langston has proved himself to be. Among those present were Dr. W. S. Montgomery, assistant superintendent of schools; Rev. W. V. Tunnell, Prof. George W. Cook, Prof. J. W. Balmers, Prof. J. W. Balmers, Prof. J. W. Balmers, Dr. F. J. Shadd, Dr. James Wilder, Dr. John R. Francis, Dr. A. M. Curtis, ivv. F. J. Grimke, Mr. A. H. Grimke, Rev. D. A. Weslman, Rev. J. E. Mooreland, Prof. T. W. Parner of Baltimore, Mr. James A. Cob, Prof. W. L. Pollard and Mr. H. E. Baker, Short speeches were made by Dr. Montgomery, Register Vernon, Rev. Mr. Tunnell, Mr. Cobh and Dr. Shadd, Prof. Langston responded in a happy and pleasant vein, emphasizing the importance of placing foreign-American men and women in the Afro-Mexican educational institutions.
The warm weather here is causing many to take refuge in the country and by the woside. Mrs. John R. Francis and her children are coming to the job as are also Mrs. Charles R. Douglas and her son Mrs. Ann Murray has gone to Harper's Ferry to join the contigent of Washingtonians who usually visit that resort. This is the school of Washington educators who are impelled to take some of their own medicine by sitting at the feet of instructors. Every week a party leaves for some seat of summer learning, and for those who are not attending the Prof. L. B. Moore has established a school of psychology, pedagogy and methods here. He has a class of about twenty-five, comprising mostly school principals, Mrs. Amar Arbor and Miss Mannie Williamson at Ypelanti, Mich. The government employees enjoyed their first summer half-holiday last Saturday. This is for them a red-carpet event to see them窘rying at noon with schoolboy air from the weariness of routine work. From now until the end of September the suittee will be a part of their Saturday morning luggage and the children will train the object of their simple struts.
The formal opening of the Negro exhibit at the Jamestown expedition took a large number of people from the community, which being so admirably managed by Mr. Lewis Jefferson, made a special trip there, carrying a full boat load. Lance Latham, president of the local branch of the Negro Business League, predicts that Washington's representation at the Topkapi meeting will be very large. His report of the business establishments in the District Columbia will be thorough and surprising.
AUDITOR TYLER MAKES A PRECEDENT
Important Ruling by New Treasury
Official as to Tips to Walters.
From The Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
Tips have received the official sanction
of at least one branch of the United
States government. This sanction was
given by R. W. Tyler, auditor of the
Navy Department, when he passed an
item of 10 cents for a tip in the expense
account of M. L. Newman, electrician
of the Brooklyn mary yard, who recently
worked at Bayonne, N. J., on special
work.
This recognition of the right of hotel and restaurant employees to demand and receive tips from Federal employees is significant, coming as it does immediately after the first annual conclave of hotel employees. The abolition of tips was declared to be impossible, because tips had become an institution. Yet, aside from this, the attitude of the Navy Department with regard to tips is significant, because the order allowing them to be legitimate employees was abolished by Tyler, who abolished it be the Negro appointed recently by President Roosevelt from Ohio to succeed former Auditor W. B. Wroble. At the time the appointment was made it attracted widespread attention and this first important ruling of the new auditor upon the legality of tips is felt to be a positive step. Its allowance was accompanied by the refusal of the department to allow Mr. Newman more than 50 cents for a midday meal. In his expense account the navy yard electrician set down the charge of 50 cents for lunchmeal. Mr. Tyler informs him that "the Navy Department has 50 cents an excess for a midday meal."

Cornelius D. Cooley, who as a slave belonged to an Alabama planter before the war, addressed a large body of Afro-Americans in the parish house of the Church of Crucifixion Thursday night. He declared that the Afro-American population was lower than before Lincoln's proclamation knocked off his shackle. He also spoke on what he called the benevolent effect of discrimination practiced by the white man against the Afro-American. He said that no distinction was made between the good and the bad members of the race. In discussing his views, he said his heirs to be patient, that the attention drawn to the incident by the president's action was resulting in great benefit to the Afro-American as a soldier and a citizen.
HIS AFRICAN DREAMS
Were Nightmare Facts to These Who Followed His Advice and Not His Example.
To the Editor of The New York And:
If the daily papers correctly reported the utterances of Bishop H. M. Turner on last Saturday the race should hang its head in humiliation for the hopefully not so horrible outcome. Here is a man capable of great things who instead of always shaking the proverbial "red rag" should be advising patience, sound judgment and patriotism. It is quite true that in various parts of the country the oppressed and equal rights are denied the colored race and the golden days preached by persecutors seem so far in the future, but stirring up feeling of hatred, pandering to the tastes of the hot-headed and frightened, is the only matter—in fact, it really hurts the cause.
And Bishop Turner will find that hurricane insults at the flag will not add to his list of friends. If he really was sincere every colored man and woman should rise up and condemn him. For years he has been a critic of the situation, whether for glory or for gain. I know not, but to the poor deluded creatures who have fallen under his spell nothing save regret and unhappiness has resulted. He has had ample time to show a few of the advantages of life to the writer does not know that he has ever done so. Of course there are exceptions to all rules, and he may be able to hold up a handful of successes to the vast number of dismal failures. Men and women of the South have held their hands up and journed that distant land, there to find faine and fortune. The results? Ask some of those who have been fortunate enough to come back and they will tell you stories of suffering and persecution; they will tell you of the silent graves that have been buried and of mythical Golconda; they will tell you of the mute appeals those last resting places seen to make to their friends in America.
If Africa is such a haven of happiness and freedom why does not the good people of Africa have friends there and induce his friends and relatives to do likewise? That would be a worthy example. The race question will not be solved by agitators of his ilk and the country would willingly form a citizen of Africa forging a citizen if they would only go there and prove some of his theories. No, the American flag looks good to him, and so it will to all minds capable of noble thoughts and wise actions. M. M. MINOS. New York City, July 3.
AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT
FOR CLARK UNIVERSITY
Hua 400 Acre Near Atlanta—Mr. Parka in Charge.
"What the Negro needs to increase his efficiency is, first to want better homes, and second, to learn how to work more intelligently in order to be more diligent. His country schools are doing something to increase the Negro children's wants, but farm schools are needed to teach them how to farm better. The Negro children are not learned how to care for live stock. The boys should be taught how to care for poultry, cows, horses and swine. By inspiring them with a love for farming, they will be trained to care for more drudgery, by training them to the best methods, by having them realize that farming can pay well, we shall be working in the right direction. The country is in need of all that can be produced for our farms. The way to produce more crops is to produce more manure, hence the necessity of raising live stock. Our school will train boys, who will go back to the community to work alongside others by example, how to succeed.
"The future beef supplies will come from small farms. The day of great crunchies is already passing. In the raising of cattle and production of dairy products, the Southeast has surpassed our northern areas. The Southeast has surpassed our northern areas. Because the growing season lasts longer; and, second, because of the availability, at our doors, of the hy-products of our oil mills, meal and hulls.
"Negro farmers produce about a quarter of a bale of cotton per acre. With yardage of hardwood, the yardage mature, they can raise one bale per acre. The Negro farmer could then grow cotton on one quarter of the number of access now devoted to it and on the remainder of the farm carry general purpose cows and some hogs, thus having for sale dairy products, beef and still produce the same amount of cotton.
"A proof that the country Negro boys can be trained successfully to care for live stock is afforded at Tuskegee Institute. There 150 boys are in charge of 30 brooding mares, 300 breeding cows, hogs, 600 head of poultry, headless 98 working mules, 3 stallions, and 11 hulls.
"In Atlanta we have a rare opportunity, a 400-acre farm, with the great city market. We can sell advantageously all our garden stuff, dairy products, beef and cotton. I particularly wish to solicit the sympathy and secure the advice of the white planters and business men of our section in order that our work may be brought close to the real needs of the Negro farmers."

ALPHIA PHYSICAL CULTURE CLUB
A Stranger Describes with Much Familiarity a Beefsteak Dinner—What the Club Plans are in Athletics—A Gymnastium in New York.
To the Editor of The New York Age:
A friend and I were conversing, after spending the evening together at the theater and when we should meet again. In going over the evening of the following week and stating how he would be occupied on each particular evening this week, I mentioned that on a certain evening (Saturday, June 25) he was slated to attend a beefsteak dinner, whereupon the writer mentally began to up his own occurrences among us and the remembrance of the pleasant time spent at the few such affairs it has been my lot to attend, and that the ordinary affair would require than an ordinary affair would require, occasioned and to express a strong desire to be the recipient of an invitation, which was gratified some days later. When the club house, and thereby hung a tale
You see, I had just that morning read the letter of Mrs. Fannie Barrier Williams in THE AGE in relation to the Proekford Douglass Center in Chicago. I was surprised by the popularity the gymnasium had proven to be, honoring the fact that New York city seemed so strangely lethargic in matters of that kind; so that, what I saw and am about to relate seemed all the more important. My great grief is remembered that the commissioner had only a few days previously raided five places on this same block that this club has its rooms, places of the so-called club variety that offer all and every kind of activity. The corner saloon and poolroom spoken of by Mrs. Williams in her letter. Arriving there I was ushered into the presence of a number of very intelligent appearing and countens young men who were seated in the room, playing whist and hearts. I had no more than become seated when a young man presented me with a cornbone pipe. Bund although smoking a cigar at the more advanced ring. Another young man followed quickly with a large bowl of tobacco, and the introductions of the officers followed with such pleasanties as would serve to banish any momentary dissonance one might suffer of. The company of whom I were mainly strangers.
During this time I was pretty busy sizing up the surroundings and could see that this was a bum fide club. The case and freedom with which the members carried themselves were suggestive of the supernous clothing, the attire consisting of a shirtwist and belt rather than the conventional street clothing, and then the bars rings and police, and what not, scattered around in various nooks and on the wall and in racks, to say nothing of the banner with the strange device, which was a large metal trophy afterward desigered as the motto of the Alpha Physical Culture Club.
It was delightful to see how perfectly at ease these young men were. Mr. Stevenson the president, was easily the cheeriest, the most witty, a delightful singer and an enthusiastic athlete, he is at the same time a gentleman who shows moral character in above reproach and who possesses those qualification that man can enable to men. The club's chef, or the man who has been delegated to attend those duties. Mr. Robert F. Donge, the genial and rotund secretary of the New Amsterdam musical association, was busy getting to know the musicians, the little plates of yre bread and a generous cut of steak, served to each person, and then the crisp celery, followed by glasses of ale drawn fresh from the wood and the wine, served to each person, seemed eager that every one was served. There had been excellent piano music all evening by Mr. Harry Haggs, and then the singing began with Mr. G. B. Haggs, and then the World Is Mine" good enough for anybody, and as an encore "Indian Chief" which was received in a most upright manner. Then, Mr. Jeremiah Certain sang Aleep in the Deep, followed by Mr. B. Haggs, and then monologue setting the whole place roaring.
The President, having finished the duties of the culinary end, was called on to sing "Sweetie Dear," which he did equal to the ropottie professional. He played the piano and played the piano in a most masterful manner and accompanied Mr. Hardy's

The floor was then cleared and a very interesting bout followed between Meads, Stevens and Smith. The beat of feeling prevailing, the members criticising the various feints and counters as they were made. In such manner the evening moved.
Of course, this was an entertainment. Ordinarily no intoxicants are served in the club, being held injurious to athletic development, in which the club is chiefly that the club closes at 11:15 p.m. sharp, and the rule, I am informed, is strictly adhered to. While it is not a church organization by any means, I was assured that they are careful to scrutinize the character of my applicants for membership, the club is being held among the social organizations of Manhattan.
In conversation with the president he assured me that they expect to be in a position soon to establish a summer camp somewhere accessible to New York where the members can spend a week or more in the city, open air. As Mr. Stevens has the faculty for work and is an able leader whom the members trust and encourage, I am sure New York will hear much good of the Alpha Physical Culture Club in the future. Ronner R. Rumourra. New York July.
THE UNWRITTEN LAW.
From The New York Evening Post.
We are inclined to think that if the unwritten law acquires many more murders in the South, the justice will wish and after that the justice will serve, speaking of the latest case, says that "Judge Loving was acquitted as forfeiture, but there are some victories as bad as defeat. His daughter is disgraced and Cain is upon him. We don't know that the fate of Estes is preferable to that if either of the survivors." The Baltimore Sun, which has a great influence in Virginia and Maryland, insists that "unwritten law" and that "our courts are fully able to punish wrongdoing." One of the cruel aspects of this Loving case is that the victim's friends were dead; his son was alive; his drunken assassin was not a moment to answer the charge and the judge rigidly excluded all testimony tending to break down the story of the only witness for the defense. This is not the case. The Philadelphia North American suggests one result may be that the "girl who is found out may be led to think that a borrowing tale, followed by a shooting, squares all accounts." To the Lynchburg Attorney General, the "most distressing that has ever found place on a Virginia docker." The Richmond Times-Dispatch has no sympathy whatever for Judge Loving's act, of the unwritten law. The Nashville irresponsibility. "The Nashville American does not believe in Estes' guilt. The Columbia, S. C., State thinks that an unjust punishment in a stain upon civilization will be the Nashville News-Leader says: "The practical, concrete fact of the present is that with the law as it stands life is unstable, the law against murder is almost nullified and State is in the ignominious position of being unable to protect her own citizens."
