This involved a matter of observation where, but in Washington, it is proposed and designed for little celebrating of life, property and the of happiness. through it run some of the principal thoroughfares of the city leading to the hospital. Beyond it also stood, as it now stands, the home of the late John Merrer Langston. The story is told that when that proud son of Virginia and great leader was a member of Congress, his clerk stood between him and the Capitol where he was wont to assist in making the Nation's law and that it did not bedge at his approach. He had to walk around his balcony. Imagine the clerk standing between him and a cloud ago went up in the smoke of fires built by be the predatory denizens who encamped about it and many of those fine and handsome houses are now the happy home of the man who rented, following the habit of their brook, have flown but those who had bought remain in contented neighborhood with the colored freshholders and tenants. When Mr. Vernon came home to enter upstairs, he found a man who be found it an ideal spot for a home and has there established himself in a beautiful and commodious house. This is but typical of what has happened and is happened in the fashionable and substantial houses have been built are witnessing the advent of Afro-American residents and but few sections are on account of expense exempt from them. Washington Street and adjacent section of the District of Columbia and yet at the very front gate of it Mr. R. R. Horner, a prosperous and prominent Afro-American attorney and real estate man, owns an extremely valuable estate worth $10,000 could helptrem from him. Rome weeks ago, Rev. Edward Everett Hale presented an element of the middle class to the institutions which he made in a spasm in Boston touching upon the distribution of population in the District of Columbia. The veritable chaplain of the Senate did not feel that was stating in his charm terribly simple way the truth as he proved it. Nevertheless his remarks were without paying for it and thus he offered a service to charity that he has always delighted to do. must be said that Dr. Hale in a town he was in, said that upon facts, Curtain indi- cualize men here replying to them in their address to the contrary that he did not mean to that. But that did not mean to that. And he speaks as one who has race w presidence. When he said that that Washington is inhabited by Negroon, he might Southwest Washington and even taking his meaning, it is clear that he has not kept himself informed as to the movement of the Afro-American population in Washington during recent years. In this respect he is different from the people who have more time and more occasion to acquire the information. There is prevalent both here and elsewhere the impression that the bulk of Afro-American reside in South Washington, and the Afro-Americans of that section have not had the esteem they deserve. The recent police census shows quite a contrary state of facts. Washington is divided into ten police precincts. The fourth precinct embraces what is counted as the Northwest population, which relative population is an follow: Colored, 13,854; white, 10,776; total, 31,001. The third, eightth and second precincts, which lie in what is usually known as the Northwest, have the lazy principal Northwest precinct, the eightth, the principal Northwest precinct, having the very largest. The great bulk of Afro-American population is in the upper section of the city and the tendency is continuing upwards. The white population is moving northward, and the hitherto residential portion of the city more and more to the colored people who are thus coming into possession of a most desirable class of property whose value will constantly increase. The Afro-American population is meeting of course with resistance, and this very fact offers many splendid opportunities to investors and speculators, which are being improved. The Negro real estate dealer who can purchase a foothold on some hitherto exclusive section of street easily dispose of his holding at a good profit and much better than his white brother in the profession. In such cases if he never in other it is sometimes worth more than an Afro-American rather than a white man is but another illustration of the continuity and comedy of meanness. It must be admitted, however, and it is gratifying to admit it, that as between substantial, intelligent and sober African Americans and the Nation's capital, there is but little manifestation of race or color prejudice growing out of proximity of homes. PROTEST AGAINST BILL Arguments Against Diffranchisement Presented ATLANTA, Aug. 12. An exhaustive memorial has been written by the Negroes of the State protecting against the enactment of the administration, disfranchisement bill, and copies, furnished to the members of the General Assembly for their personal prior to the committee on constitutional amendments meeting to consider these measures on Monday afternoon. The memorial, which covers eleven pages of printed matter, is signed by the following: D. J. Jordan, A. Nesh H. P. Rery, J. W. Gilbert, J. W. Layes, H. A. Rucker, A. F. Herman, R. T. Weatherton, H. J. Hewer, R. T. Weatherton, E. P. Johnson, W. H. Winn, G. A. Tebbler, Moses Amel, L. H. King, J. A. Rush Charles McHenry, H. W. Weaver, A. Thompson, P. A. Allen, H. H. Procter, chairman; Smith Fasley, secretary. This list includes the more prominent cities of Atlanta, but Augusta, Mason, Moor and other Georgia cities. The opposition to the bill is taken under five heads as follows: First, it is unnecessary, and would be provocative. Second, it is unjustified and would tend to disturb labor conditions and record the cooperative movements for law and order. Third, it is undemocratic, and would tend to convert the principles of popular government. Fourth, it is unconstitutional, and would impede national flagging. would impure national legislation. Fifth and third, she clearly causes misuse of the measure, and would have a nearly every bag of feet on the young men of the State. The language used in this pamphile is extremely temperate and very arguable motivative. It is contended that by coercing the Negro garrison in the infancy of the commercial life, would be subjugated to a complete state of political selfdom. In support of the second point it is declared that the bill so passed is fair, but at heart is a stab at the Negro garrison in the infancy of the commercial life, would arise such勾itation among the Negro laborers that it would greatly impure the industries of the state that are disposable upon Negro labor. It is further desired that this enactment would tend to wrest the Negro garrison from the laborers and in the destiny that cooperation between the races which is proving so homogeneous, it declares that the register is given too much power by the terms of the measure and cites an instance in Virginia that a man with a Negro education had been disframed simply because the registrar so elects. In the fourth point it is contended that the bill is one of class legislation, and it is declared to be the intention of the measure if this has been intended to light in the highest courts in the land To commend the jamballet says, "We have contributed in our ways no little to the progress of our country. We have cleared your forests and tilled your fields; we have constructed your railways and spuned your streams with bridges; we have built your houses and tended your cattle; we have cooked your food and cared for your little ones; we have taken care of your children; the time of peace and on the field of battle; we have done for you the best that we could. And now in this hour when our liberties are in the balance, and while all the world looks on, we ask you to help us in our work. Do you to you. For forty years your people have contended that they ought to be left alone to regulate the affairs between the races, and you have from a thousand platforms pledged to the Negroes, to the Nation and to the whole world. We have asked you would don with absolute fairness to tween your white and black citizens. The Nation has granted your request, and some of our ablest leaders have advised their people to trust you and withdrawn themselves from politics. Many of our people now disregard your wishes and trample your honor in the dust by passing this bill?

An organization of whites known as the Washington, Arlington and Fall March Railway committee Association was much busy compiling a new church to compel the railway officials to recognize and accord to the demands of the patrons of the line in putting in a more convenient schedule and making their improvements.

University Congress of the Washington University of Washington in a debate August 6 warmly discussed the necessity of Jim Crow cars for the District of Columbia and the crowd then voted unanimously in favor of it. It became clear that their likeliness would do in the matter that they had legislative power. And yet nothing is hardly impossible when mean and prejudiced white people combine to "do the Negro for Jim Crow railway coaches" and "get them to the River and Jim Crow street cars from Alexandria and other towns in Virginia toll brazenly in and out of Washington daily.

Miss Mary Evans, a 19-year-old white girl, not long ago, was debarred by the school board of Swain county, near Asheville, N.C. from attending the school, being a white girl and Negro in her viens, that she was of Portuguese origin. The case, which attracted great notoriety, was carried to the court, which in three minutes by a jury was won by the judge, who made clear at the trial that the girl was a direct descendant of the families whose ancestors were among the pioneer settlers of the State, a number of them being well known Confederate soldiers.

Among the many threatening and bulldozing ones is the following from W. C. Post of the Jefferson Davis Confederate Army: "Mr. Taft has no more chance for the nomination than much as a snowbowl in hell. Mr. Russell will be nominated; and he will be elected. He has promised prominent men in the South that he intends, if reelected, to put the Negro where he belongs." This will carry the South for him. We would rather have him than a work-knowled Northern Democrat. So bowl on. Truth, W. C. Post? "Not a man who has the best intellectual knowledge. Roosevelt would for him believe in the cloakstrap.

Judge Baldwin Snya Professions Have Become Commercialized CHATRAQUIA, Aug. 31. The North lad better leave the South alone in getting the Negro question, according to former Judge Baldwin, of the Perogal Court of Indiana, who spoke before the Chattanooga Lawyers' Club Friday on "The Commercialization of the Law." "I think the Republican party in the North has come to the conclusion that the African Amendment was a hideous mistake," said the Judge. "We ought to let our Southern brother, who lies to live with the Negro, solve the Negro question." "The law has become commercialized," said Judge Baldwin, turning to that topic. "Instead of looking upon it as a profession our young men are going into, because they think they can make more money there than elsewhere." "But it is no worse than other professions. Where will you find a great novelist in this country? Name, if you can't truly great poet. Where are our great orators? You will find the same beautiful effects of commercialism in the Church. Larger congregations and more beautiful buildings don't take the place of real religion. What we need is an ethical revival." WONT TELL WHO SHOT HER.

ELKS OF THE CITY AND STATE The Coming Convention to Be Held in Chicago ATKINS AND HOLMES The Re-election of the Exalted Kuler and Grand Secretary Sought—Personal Notes of Local Lodges. It is clear that certain influences have been friendly to me during the recent retreats of the Caucasian Elks and we need to mark them well that we may repay. It is our announced purpose to consider ways and means to successfully combat criminal legislation and criminal press comments and an immense program is being considered. In a movement of this kind we cannot always foresee the results of the many contingencies that may deter or defeat a movement of this nation. However, this much we can safely say that it is our intention to finally put the organization of Elks on a basis like the Masons, the extent of this depends largely upon our ability to engage the people of our country in a work of this proportion. We need in our canvass a fund of information concerning the subordinate elks generally, fraternal conventions specifically, and the rehearses of subordinate lodges that any information, support and interest along the lines suggested above will give strength for the issue now upon the ground. Our interest, will be thankfully received.

This call for more men includes the announcement, in the operation of all kind of railway service. In order to supply this urgent demand for skilled workmen, a half dozen of the largest railway systems of the country have united in the establishment of a headquarters in the city of Chicago. The headquarters of this institution is to be located in Chicago at 281 Michigan avenue.

NNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS Efficacy of Self Help Shown in Mississippi STATEFULLOFSCHOOLS Notable Educational Meeting Held at Holly Springs—Six Thousand Dollar Building Erected. HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. Aug. 11.—The efficacy of self help as applied to the fullest development of the Negro has never been more fully brought out than in the case of the Negroes of Mississippi. A visit to any of the numerous conventions, associations, conferences, congresses and what nots, held in every conceivable place throughout the state, convinces one that these people down here, no matter what opinion the outside world may have of them, are alive to the importance of organization and effective help for themselves without much outside interference. Mississippi is full of Negro schools. In every town of importance, there is some institution, fostered by a Baptist convention, some secret order, or some body of well-meaning and interested people. You see the ministry for this kind of theology and ministry, with the facilities afforded by the state for Negro education as meager as they are in this prejudice-ridden state. At this place, Holly Springs, there stands like the giant she is, mighty and well-known Rust, University, doing the work it has done for forty years to the uplift of an ignorant people. Her work grows brighter and better like good wine and the other side of the street stands the hostest of lusty infants, the Mississippi Theological and Industrial Institute, the institution of two years' growth, the coolest and best equipped of all the young schools in the South, brought about by the sacrifices of loyal preachers and laymen in the Colored Methodist Episcopal church, under the leadership of the sacred example of their gallant leader, friend and bishop Elias Cottrell. But with not half the constituents to draw upon, and with only the knowledge of the urgency of the situation, the Baptists of the Northern portion of the State began the work of erecting another school to be located at Holly Springs. Holly Springs has so long been an educational center for the state, and certain of its students have so sadly deprived of school advantages by the abolition of the Mississippi State Normal School, which was also situated here, that the erection of these schools by the various denominations was an imperative necessity. It can be said, truthfully, that there is no unholy rivalry between the institutions. To be sure there is a certain kind of rivalry, but as one of the presidents said, "We are only trials in the sense that we are each trying to make our own do more efficient work, and to excel in the matter of positive efficiency." But to return to the Baptist Normal Institute, it is well to call attention to the fact that the constituents who make the erection of his institution possible are only a small part of the Baptists of the State of Mississippi, and that when it comes to a consideration of the Baptists of the State of Mississippi, the woods are full of them." The Baptist Normal Institute has certain difficulties in the erection of this plant, and certain hindness and embarrassment that few know of, except those who have themselves been pioneers in similar centuries. Rev A. J. Teague, one of the best known Baptist preachers in the whole State is the sort of the movement. It is the traps place in front of them to raise the funds he it is they hold responsible for the erection of the plant, and consequently he it is that all the burden of the responsibility of running something out of nothing is attached to. Rev. Teague meets the issue squarely in the face and without financial backing, with only his indomitable will, his courage, and a firm conviction of the necessity of the proper and the righteousness of his cause, he has gone forth before the people, time and again, in season and out of season, on the roads and in the roads, and has erected a building on the grounds of the Baptist Normal Institute, worth approximately $3,000. It is in this building that the thirty- sixth annual session of the Holly Springs Association was held, and a most memorable session it was, when the ministers, from the various country charges, marched up to the tables with their banners, and before they had only been used to bring up their one dollar "for minutes," the result is easy to imagine. The result is that one thousand dollars in less time than it takes to tell the story was contributed by the hard working people of northern Mississippi for the cause of education, where before they had to use cash, they had to beustomted to "Sat down to eat and drink, and rise up to play." --- The thirty with annual session of the Holly Sipkins Association was held in the unfinished school building, work have been suspended during the four days (August 8, 9 and 10) it was in session. The meeting of this, the largest association in the state brought together many interesting characters, some of the men being among the oldest Negro presidents the state of Oklahoma and address one of the most important one that the one thing appurtened in the minds of the people assembled at all times was the presentation of the work of the Baptist Normal Institute, and all forces were bent towards that end. Rev. J. W. Ayers, with the hard work of many years for his people, plainly written on his letter and benign countenance, provided with all the grace and dignity the situation demanded, and in his annual address gave many telling statements with reference to the best means to preserve the best means to raising funds for the institution several objections were of very great importance and delivered by various individuals. Bishop Elias Correll the most distinguished citizen of Holly Springs and beloved by all people regardless of church affiliations, delivered a strong address of welcome and delivered at the first collection for the cause of education. Prof. G. A. Greer, assistant principal of the institute, delivered the other address of welcome. The addresses were responded to by Rev. S. P. Woods and G. L. Harris. Re. Francis J. Davieson, Carlo. D. field secretary of the Foreign Mission Board represented Rev. L. A. Jackson, the purported missionary from Africa, who spent twelve years in missionary work in the Dark Continent, and is the founder of missions in Cape Cod. delivered a lengthy address upon Africa and African customs. Other sermons were preached by Revs. G. W. Cohran, James Wainwright, S. P. Woods and others. Ella credit was given to Rev. A. L. Teegue and the others associated with him in the immediate presentation. the Negro race that in various communities throughout the Southland such characters as Alexander Leqaldas Tongue can be found, who will give of their time, their talents and money, freely sacrificing that the race might be the profit. All pernismum to the contrary must be the benefit in the in vain effort among the people of my race, leaders, constructive and safe, with whom the immediate and selfish end of a venture has no allurement, and who work for the best advantage of all concerned. Such a man can be found in five feet of solid ebony, such a man can be found in genial, communal hands, the Baptist knight of North Minnesota. HORACE D. SLATTER.

At last the Afro-American has become aware of the fact that he must own something as his only salvation. Last Sunday whilst standing at the entrance to the Liberty street ferry, our manager saw white property agents with great crowds around them, ready to take them into the suburbs of New Jersey and sell them property, but none of them made a better showing than our manager. Sixteen persons were taken out last Sunday, half of which number went for mere curiosity, but our manager came back with a small deposit from each person, having sold fifteen hundred dollars' worth of property. It's a mistake to say the Italian and all other nations are purchasing all the suburban property, and the Negro at home eating, drinking and sleeping. We are going to make next Sunday another red letter day, and we want you to come with us to beautiful Westfield, N.J., for curiosity. We will sell you a lot, you can build a chicken coop on it yourself, live in it, and make yourself contented until you are able to have us build for you. We want you to see the number of people there who have taken our advice along this line. Westfield is one of the most beautiful suburbs along the Jersey Central line, 18 miles out, with a commutation rate of only twenty-two cents per day. Plenty of work there for men and women who really want it. We have purchased all that property surrounding the Westfield golf links, and are selling it to our people from fifty to one hundred and seventy-five dollars per lot, on easy terms. We also have a beautiful cottage of seven large rooms, attic and cellar, standing on a fifty-foot lot on Prospect Hill, Westfield. This house is fresh from the builder's hands, and is now for sale for five hundred dollars down, and balance as rent. Fare will be returned to all persons purchasing property. Trains leave Liberty street station on the New York side on Sundays at 1 o'clock sharp. Don't miss it. Our manager is known by a white rose in his coat lapel.

NEWARK, August 13.—The State convention of the N. O. of the True Reformers was held at their hall, 61 Market street, on Thursday, August 8, and was very largely attended. Delegates were present from all parts of the State, the object of the gathering being to elect representatives to the Grand Fountain which convenes at Richmond, Va. On Tuesday, September 10, William S. H. Bancerville, the State deputy and chief of the Northern division, presided with credit in many instances, was able to bring peace out of confusion. In his address to the officers and members present, setting forth the duties of sub-chiefs and organizing those who had been most loyal to the leader and those who had been delinquent were spoken of as not worthy of receiving much merit. Curious to state, some of those who had been in caucus and expected to be the prime delegates on their good work for the term were actually turned down, as far as merit was concerned. One person finally achieved the victory on her behalf of preparing a most delicious dinner for the reformers, which delighted by all present. After the day's repast had been served and the convention settled down to business, the following delegates were nominated and elected: Mrs. Mary Thomas, Jersey city; Mrs. Mary F.

Six Voted No. When the latest legal device for disfranchising voters on account of their color was adopted by the Legislature of Georgia, six legislators were recorded as voting against it. Why? The Spirit of Castle. The recent centennial celebration held at Cooperstown, N. Y., was notable as furnishing the occasion for some significant utterances by the Rt. Rev. Henry C. Potter, the bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the diocese of New York. In his address, Bishop Potter spared no pains in excoriating on the spirit of caste as it obtains in our modern American civilization. He hit right out from the shoulder at the self-sufficiency of the average American, which makes him consider himself better than his foreign neighbor, both mentally, morally and physically. He pointed out how the American is the veriest slave of the caste spirit as soon as he encounters the "color line." This spirit he contended was largely due to the narrowness and ignorance, which overspread a nation which makes the greatest pretensions to enlightenment. It is gratifying to find a churchman of such great piety, combined with worldly wisdom, trying to open the eyes of his stock to one of their greatest sins. There is a great field for further missionary effort in this particular: not only among the laymen and priests of Bishop Potter's church, but in the people of the country at large. We trust that the example of this venerable prelate will encourage others to take up a similar crusade. The Pot and the bottle: The Senatorial contest just ended in Mississippi between Governor Vardaman and Representative John Sharp Williams recalls the celebrated, tilt between the pot and the kettle, though in point of moral darkness Vardaman seems to hold the lead. On the other hand, the more acute mental development of Williams renders him a more dangerous foe to the race, so that his triumph in the Senatorial primaries is hardly cause for rejoicing. Nevertheless, as though he realized his inability to outdo Vardaman in colorphobia, he wisely subordinated the race issue in his canvass, admitting that there were some other subjects on which a candidate for the Senate of the United States might be expected to hold opinions. The choice of Williams, though by a slender majority, may be regarded as a minor triumph for decency, as averting an election of a Senator solely on his merits as an inciter of race emity. Modern Ghouls Not satisfied with merely lynching or burning their victim at the stake, a newspaper dispatch reports that, some white criminals in Maryland recently dug up the remains of a black man done to death by them for purposes of mutilation. This act should vindicate their right to the classed as ghouls, those evil spirits supposed in olden times to haunt graveyards for the purpose of robbing the tombs of their dead. All that remained to be done to fill the catalog of horrors was to hear that these deprived mortals made a banquet of their ghastly prey Castro invited to the Hague Tucked away in a discrete corner of the newspapers last week was a Washington dispatch, stating that the State Department had made overtures to the Venezuelan government looking to the submission of the various matters in controversy between the United States and that country to the international court of arbitration established at The Hague. While the short sighted and jingoistic pattern may turn this a backdrop in the part of this government, from the position assumed a few years ago in the aphid claim and other matters, it is clear in fact a most striking proof of the justice and magnanimity exhibited by a great power toward a weaker nation. This invitation to arbitration would also seem to be a test admission that the rebellious president of Venezuela General Cipriani Castro was not with out some copies in the office he firmly refused to accept to the demand made in behalf of the asphalt company and other American clamants seeking a monetary balm for real or cleverly contrived damages, resulting from the action of Venezuelan officials. I will be remembered that after much palver and called ultimatum, Judge Calloum was appointed as con- --- missioner to visit Venezuela and investigate the matters in controversy. His report, although described as full and exhaustive, was never published, but it evidently must have convinced the Government at Washington that there were at least two sides to the cases presented, as this invitation to arbitration would show. The gist of the matter would appear to be that Venezuela, like other rich but undeveloped countries with weak governments, has proved a tempting field for foreign exploitation. The foreign capitalist has always exacted large profits and usurious interest, on account of the risks involved in his operations, yet when loss threatens he appeals to his own government to protect his investment, regardless of the terms of his contract or concession. President Castro having put his administration on a firm basis tired of the constant intervention of foreign governments in behalf of their citizens, who preferred claims of questionable validity, and has shown considerable shrewdness and determination in staving off summary action in their behalf. Whether he will accept the invitation to go to The Hague with these matters remains to be seen. CARDINAL GIBRONS ON CHARITY. "Treats All Men as Brothers" Says Prelate in Sermon to Fashionable Folk. Cardinal Gibbons, who is spending two weeks at the home of Father O'Hare's family, is preached in the Catholic church there Sunday a large and fashionable congregation. Many were obliged to stand throughout the service. The Cardinal said, in part: "He does not look at the color of a man's hair, but at the religion nor at his nationality, but treats all men as brothers. We are social beings. We are destined necessarily for no man 34 sufficient unto himself. The body is intercourse, bind us all together in one organization and the eye cannot say to the hand: 'I need not thy help, nor, again, the hand the feet? I have no need of you, yet mine are those who seem to be the feeble members of the body are more necessary. "I care not how rich a man is; he has not all the wealth of a Vanderbilt man, but he is poor indeed; he has no one to take him by the hand and call him friend." "What would it profit you to own all the coal in the mines in Pennsylvania if you had no help to mine it for you? Would it profit you to own all Manhattan coal? If you had to live there all alone with no hand to 'sleep your hand'?" THE YEAR AT TUSKEGEE Much Material Progress Made at One of the Nation's Largest Institutions. Tuskegee Institute has become one of the Nation's largest institutions. The total enrollment of boarding students has reached 1,048 during the Year, 1,111 young men, 327 young women. In the Tuskegee town night school 88 were enrolled in and in the Tuskegee town cooking school the number enrolled in the training school total reaches about 2,000. They present 36 States and Territories, and 21 countries of countries. It is an impressive showing of courage in young men and young women, upon being admitted for his or her place in life, can carry the germ of activity and uplift along the lasting benefit to the Negro population and the whole Nation must be considered. Tuskegee Institute has just completed its twentieth year; at its annual commencement there were graduated 100 young men and women, 100 from the normal department, and nine from the college school. Of those 102 received certificates of completion, some trade, and several of them for the completion of two, and quite a number of three trades. Most of those in the senior class who did not receive certificates received them in previous years; undergraduates received certificates and graduates, making a total of 158 individuals who received diplomas and certificates. The graduating exercises show, in some cases, the practical nature of the work at Tuskegee, such subjects as being dissection, the study of the human body, Have Built a Town, 'The Relation of Hot Rock and Cold Frames to Gardening', 'Some Experiments in Feeding Cattle', 'The Value of Education to Influence the Behavior of the Working', 'The Repositions of Good Habitats', 'Frederick Doughns' Contribution to Race', 'The winners of the first and second oratorical prizes given by Trinity church as their subjects', 'Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln', and 'The for the Plantation Melting, another constant receiving 'honoring motions' for an oration on 'The Value of Rotation in Craps'. There has been much material progress, the accomplished improvement in the electric light plant, the completion of a dormitory and another startled, the completion of a new hall for girl students, and progress towards the completion of a new hospital, and enlargement of the hospital. Together it is a record in which Dr. Washington and his supporters can take justifiable pride, 'knee is helping to cure the problem, and at the same time is giving a valuable object lesson in achievement.'

Due to Barring White People from Citizenship—Present Tendencies in the Republic—No Man Proof. From The West African Mall. MONOVIA, May 30—I find that the colored people of the United States are colored in the African Mall. I had a letter, not long after the publication of a popular magazine, who referred to the articles in The Mall in such a way as to show that there is interest in what you are saying about Liberia and Africa generally, as well as in your attitude toward questions affecting the African Negro. As the colored people of the United States advance in intelligence, and increase in manly spirit, they are getting more restless under the denial of "equal opportunity" in every hand there. Not even important friends like President Roosevelt can keep before the Negro in America the "open door of hope." There is among them a great desire for "a better country" than any other, surprising to note the number of letters from all parts, of the United States and the West Indies which come here, especially to President Harley, from people in the country. Our government and its people are friendly disposed to people of the right stamp, who come here to take a hand in helping to develop the country; and there seems to be no doubt that, in the future, the opportunity, which is certainly denied them, and which will never be granted them there. In reading the comprehensive report of British Consul residing here, I note his reference to the fact that our laws prevent white men from owning property and becoming citizens. And I think I doubt his comment a strain of regret that such system prevails. But it is difficult to understand why there can be any regret or complaint on the part of white men because they are excluded from owning land in fee simple leg. They have that right at every other point on the West Coast of Africa: but they seldom, if ever, exercise it. I am not referring to corporations. I am referring to individuals. White men are in the West Africa as thirds of passage. They feel for a season and, when they get enough, they fly away. As a rule, white men do not purchase real estate on the cost either for homes or business purposes. They invariably lease the real estate they use, and they do so from Nogress. They have the same privilege in Liberia. So that our law denying them the right to own land in the people's previously donies them nothing which they seem to need for the successful execution of the business purposes which bring them here. "This barrier of exclusion from land holding and citizenship which is erected against the white man, is the echo of the white man's disbelief in the glorious blushes out of the heart of the Negro everywhere. Indeed, other dark-skinned races, like the Japanese, have the same instinct. In the late war with Russia, the government promptly and absolutely denied the white man who sought to enlist in any capacity in the Japanese army or navy. "The man who owns the land owns the people," is a safe political-economic state of mind. The control, untold millions. If we let them into our land market here, it is feared that they would buy up every desirable area of land they could get hold of, and, in the meantime, they would ship of land and their predecessors' business, to extinguish our nationality, deny us "equality of opportunity," and shut the "open door of hope." And, like Hawkins they would be appalled to do, and possibly would do. But we are not maintaining as much of a wall of exclusion as in Australia, which excludes dark skinned races from entering. We are not maintaining as much of a wall as is maintained by the United States of America in its exclusion of Chinese and Japanese. White men can enter Australia, and we do business and under the progress of President Barrack, the field for European and American commercial enterprise is gradually enlarging, and no fair question is raised that the whole history of registration in Liberia shows that foreign capital invested here is perfectly safe. In opening this better, I am led to the conclusion that the white men becoming more interested in Liberia, but also because black men the world over are looking to Liberia as an arena for the untrammed struggle. Twenty-five years ago the arrival of a steamer was the occasion of great excitement throughout the town, as commuters of the harbor almost daily and as passengers in our harbor almost daily and as the post fortnight I have noted from my office window six steamers lying at an angle at one time; and four fast liners at another angle during the six steamers day in the harbor, making practically ten steamers calling here within forty-eight hours. While this is a larger number than the six steamers shown yet no work goes without seeing at time two or three steamers in our harbor on one day. The reason of it I do not now take notice, but the fact that German leads in trade here. Up in with in the past two years the Woermann Line had the monopoly; but since then it has had competition from the Messel and the Bremen lines, and beginning to call here more frequently within the past few months, showing that their business is increasing Steamers of the Hamburg-America Line and the Bremen Line, and here we make another Ridgway. It is President Hirschy's liberal policy toward capital and foreign business which is rapidly enlarging our commerce, and which is generally especially in agricultural directions. Last week, with impassing ceremonies in the presence of President Hirschy, we held a large course of citizens, the Mission fraternity laid the cornerstone of a new building, the lower part of which is to contain the assembly room of the National Museum. Another marked improvement is in progress. The old Customs Shod has recently been rebuilt down, and a large Customs Building is to be built the size of the old Shod. The National election was held on Tuesday, 7th May. President Barack was unanimously re-elected, and his own ticket was successful. There was a warrage over the election. President is very popular there; but his policies are more sharply antagonized in Russia than in any other part of the country. The opposition politicians know all that they could bring out to the table, and they put a beet ticket in the field, and every inch of the ground was contested. The leading paper published there, whose editor and proprietor would probably have opposed the President if an election was made, now makes the following comment in the issue of April 30: "The National ticket In this campaign is a unique one in the history of the country. There is only one ticket. This is President Harley's third election, and this time he will be nominated without any opposition. He was nominated by acclimation, and Convention by acclimation, and if it were sible so to be, he would be elected by acclimation at the polls on election day. There is a magnetism about the man that himself is himself. When he was first nominated in 1985, he moved in a very weak manner at the polls. When he was nominated in 1985, he was opposed in a yet weaker manner, and in 1987, when he is again nominated, he was withdrawn and withdrawn opposition whatever. The fact that man has no resistance in the highest gift of the Nation speaks volumes for him. Mr. Harley having served the people these four years as President, will now be elected, as it were, by acclimation." The foregoing forecast, published a week before the election, was borne out to the letter, as the President reaffirmed the vote, except two, he receiving 2,204 votes, and the vice-president, Hon. J. J. Dossen, receiving 2,208 votes. The leader of the local opposition ticket, H. B. Williams, received 1,100 votes. Sessions of the county, received only 571 votes, being defeated by a majority of three to one by his opponent, S. G. Harmon, a leading mercantor of Bassa, who received his president's ticket for the National Senate. For upwards of a generation the thoughtful leaders of the Whig party have felt that the Constitution should be amended to allow the amendments proposed was one among the one term of the President, Vice-President, and members of the National Legislature, so as to avoid biennial National elections. It was a fortunate event elections disturbed the business of the country, the drew the minds of the citizens from their usual pursuits, and presented the continuous enterprise necessary for the country, but the politicians, who thrived on frequent elections, have successfully proposed this change until this year. Under the leadership of President parcey, the national Whig convention, but subsequently by the Legislature at its last session. It was thereupon submitted to the people, that country was the only county which would be allowed to vote. 525 votes being poured there in favor of them, and 1250 votes being cast against them. The total vote throughout the country for the amendments 2522, they were, therefore, adopted, and they now become a part of the Constitution, as that instrument proves that amendments shall be made thereon. The voters, of all the directors at a political election. herwart our citizens will devote less time to politics and more time to business, and President Harvey will be given a commute period in which to develop his business and push them to a succession competition. The National Legisclosure will be in harmony with him, and there is every proxies for steady and rapid advance in our tarotry. Our tarotry are awakening and are developing the area of their tarotry, and it is gratifying to have the many new tarms that are being opened up. Preparations are being made for an agricultural and industrial fair to be held early next year; it will be a successful arraignment, it will mark a new chapter in our departure to our agricultural life here. the death in January last of Hon. H. W. Travis, Secretary of State, one of the oldest and most influential of the public men of Liberia, whose death was reported through your columns, made it news that he hurried to organize his cabinet. The hurry to organize oughtly in promoting faithful and efficient officials. It was not surprising, therefore, when he appointed as his new attorney-general the Hon. C. D. R. King, who for more than eight years had been courtney of Monoserrado county, and who was a prominent prosecutor. The President then presided over attorney General Hon. F. E. R. Johnson, a scholarly man and an able lawyer, to the post of Secretary of State. Secretary Johnson is expecting to make a visit to Europe next month, where he will visit the West African Mail will catch him for a talk on Liberia. Rystyn St. T. M. C. THE SOUTHERN RACE PROBLEM That Negro haters do not truly represent the sentiment of the host white, but the sentiment of the host black. Beloved and compassionate have long been esteemed and considered more noble. Consider, for example, those works of the Rev. Quinney Living of Louisiana, a Southerner of the Negro community, who has long life-long association and sees how true they ring in contrast with the brutal expressions that usually misrepresent the race. North, with reference to the Tate Press, The reality and magnitude of that problem is due not, as is not, to an orderly supposed, to excessive criminality on the part of the Negros as a race. For example, the criminal the Negros have never been to be at all. There is not people in the United States, North, South, East, West, less given to criminal rebellion against the laws of the land than our Southern Negros. Not that problem due, as the demong-zine is not the problem of the state, they have to be a personal difference between the people and moral nature of the Negros as they are being, and the mental and mental nature of the white man as a human being. After nearly forty years' residence in the South contact with the world every day should be at a less to mention one single mental nature test, commonly possessed by the Negros, that is not also commonly possessed by the white man. The true problem of the South is due to two very conspicuously joint points: the kept as a rule well in the background of political or历史文化 of a red-tank sort, and new shapes of the same sort to the fact, first, that the Negro has a black skin; next to the fact, second, that the black skin people, formerly in bands; to white people, these have associated for many years, and as well as many of the people, with the more, as it is often an immunative, manual driden; Were the South officer represented in the form of public opinion by a charity organization, we should not only bear less of the burden, but also less of the paper question to the head of the organization. A BUILDING RALLY. Efforts to Ruffer Money for New Church Building at Hackenack. HACKENSAK. August 13. The pastor and investors of the A. M. E.

Dixon, Jr., r. jr. stories of stories bove the Kukluk Klan, finds itself complete with the appearance of "The Traitor" tribaliday, Page & Co.) The chronology of the tribaliday, passing. John Graham, hamber of the tribe. The dragon of the Kukluk Klan, was 50 years old when, on a June evening in the year 1870, he sought to effect an en- tire change in the home. The story says of this home. The home house had always been a showplace in the town of Independence (N. C.). Built 1840 by John a grandfather, Robert Grant (grandfather of Colonel John Graham of Riverside County) it was a curious mixture of Colonial and French architecture. The French toonies were tributes to the Huguenot grandmother. The story also speaks of the corner of the door-yard. It says: "Popular tradition said that, Robert Huguenot and loved his frail Huguenot bride with his dolatry, and anticipating her early marriage." Now, it was John's grandmother who received these delicate attentions, architecural and mortuary, and she was a wife in 1490, the year in which John Coleman bore him when he tried to enter the home of his father in 1870. He had difficulty with the front gate. This he overcame, as his strong way was with difficulties. "A vicious gate smashed the latch and he fell heavily, sat on a rustic bench and looked about the ancient estate of the Grahams, 1840-1870. He thought back through that long year of mellowing and concentrating years on memories of his childhood began to flood the these trees he had spent the happiest days of life—the charmed life of the old regime. He could see now the stately mother moving among its boxwood walls in the far corner of the law's shaves. He had not been there before since the day her body was carried from the hall five years ago and laid to rest the family vault in the far corner of the law's shaves. The day he could ever forget it? The day he brought his deputy marshals and exited his father and mother from the home they loved as life itself"—the old home Colonial and French touches and Huguenot memories and humble cemetery. Old Butler, the usurper, the present occupant of the historic mansion, was a solvang Judge of that infamous period, a judge of the house presently, an standing in the great court, a secret door of the underground passage leading to the family vault said to old Butler. Here, I the past master of the language of the past master of all the dead touches of the mansion in the use of every epithet the rage of man ever spoke, still words would be no power to express my contempt for her, nor would fall off his chair. John added: "It is the other personal pleasure that I now brand you to your face coward, liar, prince thief. This Stella was immediately the Judge, the heroine of the story into the ball with a pyros shout. Why, she cried, "it's the famous Mr. John," the Judge introduce me quick." The Judge introduced an introduction, so Stella "with a grish laughter," walked over to John and said Mr. Graham, permit me to introduce myself. Stella Butler. We are certainly to be her dainty little band. Thirty years were required to meet the Graham ancestral mansion, but John was melded instantly. We read that he and he touched a hand so warm and relied on the warmth and comfort of his insistence. We read further that "never had seen a vision of such bewildering bedness." Her hair was raven black bedding looks were ripe peach red. Her brown eyes were bright. Her dress "too hold this to be a sacred matter and we must quote exactly" showed the perfection of good taste and showed a yellow satin trimmed to old age without a wrinkle, dull little figure without a wrinkle, dull little snow white stockings and low tipped slippers that peeped in and out mischievously. She was skinned. It required only a moment for her to be skinned. It required only a complete understanding of Stella Perlaps the reader will agree with it. "Could he possible, we read that John appeared that a girl of such extraordinary beauty, that remarkable character, of such appalling nature, have been born of such a father." Her appearing (not appalling) manners in a new dress that stirred much in a new heart. As he was my law this issue addressing of soft tenures. "If you are my father, it says, "you are a potloth and a coward." Don't you call me darling? Don't you call me me again? I leave this house and blast me from my memory." It made old Butler stagger. As he freely tried to roarover himself Stella "stumped her foot, turned her head, the stars and into her room slammed into the screen." John's conclusion was right. These manners were distinctly appealing. They appealed to old Butler so powerfully that he had none to give in. As soon as he had done, Stella subsided and sat at a hearty stump. We shall not relate the painful and dire matters in the story. The reader must learn from the book how the noble and brave men of the high ceremony, and how old Bigger is taken off by carpenters bagging assassins, who made use of the subway connected with the found avail.

CONGO FREE STATE Archbishop of Canterbury on the Quen- lation of the Country. From The West African Mail From The West African Mail. A letter to the administration of the administration of the Congo on July 28, when the House of Lords on July 28, when Lord Monskew, in moving for the people in the case, said that "the system of government in the Congo Independent State is one of unrestrained tyranny, encroachment and the bullet, by cruelty and by murder, to debate that followed the motion, the Archbishop of Canterbury declared that the Congo was one of the most discontenting and humiliating of contemporary questions, and the Earl of Mayo conspired to determine the convention to determine the personal domain of King Lords of the Belgians. In response to the government's explanation that a statement on the progress of the *pourparler* between his impassive's government and the Congo adobe to determine the success of the cause of reform, he withdrew his motion; but the expression of sentiment by the Lords accomplished the purpose of bringing the affairs in the Congo freshly to international notice. LAWYER DEFENDS YOUTH. First Macdonald n. Great Surrey Three Months for the Jamaica Leaf Yorkers, August 12.—On last Tuesday evening, the Rev. Dr. Singer made a report to Zion church of the excursion to Horton Beach. It was the first annual excursion of the Westchester County Evangelical Association and went out from Nyack. Tarrytown and Yonkers. Refreshments of all kinds were on board and were served by the several church committees. Yonkers served the ice cream under, the direction of the board of stewards, Mr. A. J. H. White, chairman. Excellent music was rendered by the New Amsterdam brass band, Mr. J. W. Excuse was won by Mr. J. Kins; the lean men's race was won by Mr. R. Ross of Mosholu. Mrs. Hattle Rose of the old women's race, while Mr. Lewis Brown gave many exhibitions of his athletics, various feats. The baseball game was very vigorous. There were many other games of various kinds as advertised, which were enjoyed by all. It was spread abroad far and far that excursion was the most orderly, enjoyed, and every respect that had ever gone out from the points and in fact, the best one that there ever gone up or down the Hudson. There was no drinking, gambling, fighting or disorderlessness, even dancing was prohibited. Sunday schools from Yonkers, Tarrytown, Nyack and others were well represented. Dr. Rev. John J. Smyer, Rev. R. M. Holloway, Rev. R. M. Holloway were the executive committee. Bowden was cleared by the Yankers and Nixon church did not lose anything. On Wednesday evening, August 7, the first quarterly conference of this conference year was held in the A. M. E. Zion Building, W. H. Newly, P. E. presided. The conference was centered a raising vote of thanks for the excursion mentioned above, Mrs. B. H. Erria Scott, superintendent of the Sunday school, received a vote of thanks for the work the Sunday school did for the excursion, Adolphus White received the same for the sum cleared by his board on the ice court. Presiding Elder Newly spoke at length upon the remarkable feature, that there was no dancing allowed and commended the most warmly for the Juch Christian stand which he took in this matter. On Thursday evening, August 9, Rev. Dr. John F. Morland, Ph.D, of Charlton, N.C., preached to a large congregation, A.M. E. Zion church. He preached an sermon and the hearers listened approvingly to close the members of the Golden Leaf Society. Mrs. Angie Rush, president, gave a social in the basement of the church. A good time was enjoyed by Dr. Rush and has been created an inspector-general of the Invisible Order of Colored Cooperators of the Church. I understood that Dr. Morland will come on from Tennessee during the latter part of September and receive his royal degrees. Dr. Rush an excursion went out from Yorkers, under the management of the Colored Men's Presbyterian Club, Mr. Westley Allen, president. The members used a large and tug and carried a good crowd down the Hudson to White Stone Park, L. 1. For some ten years the excursion was not allowed to land and carried at an early hour. It is said that the club did not be anything on the venture. At the A.M. T. Zion Church Sunday morning the pastor, Rev John J Snyer, presides for a large congregation. The theme of this afternoon is In the Valley. In the afternoon a service, under the management of Mrs. Rebecca Giddings, teacher of class No. 2 time, held at the regular Sunday school time, at the church. In the senior chair of the church and in the pastor occupied the pulpit and preached a very brief spiritual and instructive message. The Baptist church the Rev Dr. Thompson presided in the morning and Rev R R Page presided in the evening. Both pastors were from Mrs. Willie Spinnick and the Messes Emma Gross, Elizabeth Meikins and Hattie Conway, who have been attending the convention of the Northeastern Harford County of Women's Clubs hold in Harford, Con. Some of them after having had a most enjoyable day. The Misses Julia and Corine Johnson have returned home from Bridgeport, where they have been spending their vacation. Dr. Charles E. Scott, grand secretary of the Colonial Cooperators, has gone to Ardboro, Mass., for a few weeks' vacation. Dr. Siver and Ruy Montrise will attend the Connexional Council of the A.M. Zion church in Boston this week. A man from Brooklyn came to Yankees last week to attend in the city court for Christopher Jenkins, a Negro boy, fourteen years old and not a man as stafed in the New York high paper, who was accused of having an assault attack upon Lazie Weidman, about a city. No white lawyer would take his case. It was shown in court that the Negro lad was in company with a white boy apparently about seventeen years of age. Attorney King showed that the affair got his client off his feet and got his client off his feet. Each client can conferring admissions with a small sentence of three months in the penitentiary. The matter has not in any way affected the relations of the race. The attorney in both cases complained any such carolls in both races complained that by men or boys of either race. Our Stock visited the home of Rev ang and left a beautiful orange pennel box National Medical Association RATTERMAN August 14. The National Medical Association will hold its annual meeting here August 27 28 and 29. The meeting here will attract about 300 physicians, 'urgologists and dentists, many of whom have reached a point of distinction in their profession. In the morning of each day of the session, papers of interest to the medical profession will be read and discussed at length. The discussions will be followed by clinics at the Provident Hospital. A medical officer will be assigned to Baptist church the first day, at which time Mayor J. Barry Mebel will deliver an address of welcome. The following evening a public meeting will be held at St. John's A M E church and public health and salvation will be read. A number of social diversions will enliven the stay of the members of the use committee. These include a reception and dinner for the members, T. Fonderson on Wednesday afternoon, and a public musical and reception at the Lark, the largest auditorium in the city. Dr. W. T. T. Wright of 133E North Creek street; this city; the chairman of the use committee, has been working indefinitely in a month to make the gathering a success. In an address delivered at the Oceans town, N. Y., centennial celebration, Right Rev. Henry C. Potter, Bishop of New York, said among other things: "Our fathers," says the modern genius of superannuated religious bards "were sent to a stition or of an almost savage insurance." Well, my brothers, sometimes any rate, we must need own that we were. But in an age of such cowardice as our own, we can match their esteem for our sacrifice. We their offer herole self-sacrifice? We thankful for the coming of an or so wife departures from accepted religious ditions are no longer punished with dungeon or the stake. But in enough freedom let us take care that we are not basking vainly of a goddess difference. For, alas! with all our vaunted omnivision from earlier intolerance there is one note in our modern life which ought to note a Christian people profoundly unshamed. And we should not spirit the spirit of caste. We compare ourselves complacently here in America with races and lands in which, as in China or India, such civilization as they possess is imperiously dominated by the spirit of Christianity, not a great while ago the Parish castle was driven from the town at 3 o'clock in the afternoon and the gates of the city closed lost the shadow of a Parish might upon a Brahman: "Mountains and croods upon the ocean," we cry, "with its inhuman dishonour of some of God's children." Yes, my brother—but will you tell me how it differs in essence from that matter with which or that wonted manner with which or that wonted ward a Negro or a Chianman? Are most of us able to find ourselves beside one of these or any of their like, of ours or of land, without betraying our repugnance or our downright antagonism? In fact, the only difference between our conception of our estimate-of-caste and that of our conception of our inhumanity, his unworthen and its ignorance. Our shame land consists in this—that, while, we protest to have no castes nor class distinctions to gyranize over us, we are too often in bond with the people which worships course power—or hacer still, think, engraces to more wealth. But the whole horizon is not a band of unbounding clouds, and looking forward there is much to inspire a Christian discipline with renewed courage and hope. NATIVE FILIPINO ASSEMBLY. Will the Filipinos Demand Independence! From the West African Mail. The first election in the Philippines Islands since the establishment of American authority in the archipelago evidently resulted, last week, in the return of a safe majority for the Nationalists. The preliminary discussion of politics and leadership of that party shows that the majority group in the Filipino Assembly will demand independence, freedom to arrest, jury trials, and the readjustment of the membership of the Filipino Commission, among other representation in the commission to the Nationalists. Within the ranks of the victorious party a struggle between the elements is indicated, with the possibility that the faction will be able to impose its will upon the assembly. A feature of public sentiment among the Filipinos, as expressed at the polls, was the general acceptance of the first step in the establishment of sound government in the archipelago.

DR. SNELSON IN BERMuda Royal Welcome Extended to Former Cambridge Foster. HAMILTON, Bermuda, Aug. 7.—We arrived safe, well and happy in this my new "Island Home" last Friday morning, to find a welcoming ministry and a happy people waiting to greet us in the crowded wharf. Reva, Slimson, Richardson, Paul, Steward, Haywood et al., and Dr. Akewa, Mr. Wilson, a well-trained 300 of our loyal members joined in greeting us to this surpassingly fair and beautiful "land of the lily and the rose." Our large, spacious, well-furnished Cathedral Church was indescriably rich in the quality of the congregation, which welcomed us almost too flatteringly. Our St. Paul A.M. E. Church is a marmorous city in America and to a progressive pastor leaves nothing to be desired. With my family here, I shall be happy to remain for a long period of years at least among these people of much in diversity, enterprise, wealth, morals and patriotism. "The Charms of Jesus" was the theme of our introductory sermon and believed my discourse was sacred worthy of the uncommon people who heard me. The Legislative Assembly opened its annual session Monday with oracular state, when as a clerical guest I stood amid the "elders of the land," greeted the new Governor of Bermuda, heard his inaugural address and participated in the functions of the hour. He saw the savings banks, salvage system, farming, telephone legislation and the other usual problems that belong to city life and state government. The regimental guards lined, a salute of royalty was fired, and inspection and review were had. I saw a historical photo and souvenir of King Edward of England when as Prince of War he visited Bermuda in IS9, at his grandmother, Queen Victoria, and of her court. Prince Alfred Edward, hung court. Bermuda has many foot, spacious and well-appointed public buildings, charles schools, mercantile establishments, a beautiful harbor, and wharf deep, where ships dock. The city of His Majesty's crack guards are stationed handsomely in royal barracks here. Our professional; men are highly prosperous. Population of our city is 17,000. The streets are kept clean and white. Residents have been overgreen gardens and can enjoy the mild in center. A horse and carriage is the idol of the Islanders. Indeed life at its best is worth living here. More anon. OPD FELLOWS CELEBRATE. Second Biennial and Twenty-fifth Senator Session of Brilliance—Election of Officers. WHITE PLANES. August 12. The second biennial and twenty-sixth session of the District Grand Lodge, No. 2. of the State of New York convened in Bethel Baptist church, White Plains, N. Y. on Tuesday, August 6. William G. Rodgers opened the session and introduced Rev. R. B. Page, pastor of the Bethel Baptist church as master of ceremonies. Address of welcome was delivered on behalf of the city of Benton. Beloved Rev. R. B. Page, pastor of the village of White Plains Reply was made by District Grand Master Desverney. Addresses were also made by District Grand Secretary W. David Brown, ex-district Grand Director Charles S. Lewis. Rev. W. L. Butler, Mrs. Adeline Boss, Mrs. Mamie E. James, who presented a basket of flowers on behalf of the District Grand Household: Mrs. B. E. deTascano made a very interesting speech. This was one of the largest sessions of the District Grand Lodge ever held and had forty-two delegates in attendance. Much business of the day was conducted among which was the setting apart of May 20; to be celebrated appropriately in honor of Peter Ogden, the founder of the order in this country. A street parade was had in the afternoon, which was participated in by many lodges and the New York Patriarchate and Past Grand Masters' Council of New York and Tarrytown. The reports of the officers showed much progress in the order, both numerically and financially. The increase in members was over 1,400 during the past term of office of present officers. During the re-creation of the District Grand Lodge, a report he stated that he would not accept a reduction on account of his business, after spending more than twenty years in active work in the District Grand Lodge. As showing in a small way, the esteem in which he is held by his colleagues, on motion of District Grand Master Deservey, a committee was appointed to buy a suitable present as a token on behalf of the District Grand Lodge in appreciation of his splendid services, as district grand secretary, and present same to him at a meeting of his Hamilton 100 Lodge, in the presence of the President of the District trained the delegates very plausibly. The local committee was headed by Reither William G. Rodgers, one of the substantial citizens of White Plains. This session of the District Grand Lodge was in every respect a most representative one. Among the delegates were a number of clergymen and many leading business men. Many charming ladies graced the public sessions and the reception with their presence. Memorial Day of the District Grand Master Joseph R. Magillie, District Grand Supervisor James C. F Whiting and others whose deaths have occurred since the last meeting of the District Grand Lodge. The following officers were elected: Grand Master, John C. Preservers, the only man ever honored by three successive presidents; District Grand Master Joseph P. Smith; District Grand Secretary, Chas S. Lewis; Treasurer, Theodore Poe; District Grand Director, William F. Kingland; recording secretary, James F. Adair. All the elections were unanimous. The session closed to meet in 1990 in Rochester the business having grown into a large business now in possible to transact it properly in two days, so hereafter the sessions will be three days instead of two. Attacked Woman With Baby A Negro who tried to drag a young married woman with a babe in her legs into a secret lot in East New York Friday afternoon was caught by a mob after a thrilling chase. He would have been beaten to death but for the timely arrival of police reserves from the Breauxville station, who were torn ricks the strike down with their night ricks the strike down with their clamoring for the man's life. Others who endeavored to rescue the boy before the arrival of the police themselves severely beaten and led to the station landed in the station house after fast ride in the patrol wagon, which was showered with bricks on the way the prisoner said he was William Nicholas, 24 years old, a driver, of No. 151 Bergstreet, Brooklyn.

Later he was held for examination in the New Jersey Avenue Police court on complaint of Mrs. Jennie (possential of No. 88 Watkins street. SAVED FROM FIRE BY PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 9.—With their escape cut off by fiammes which swept up the stairway, two children were rescued from a third-story window of the house at 4204 Market street, this morning by two colored men who bravely climbed the stairway and waded through the room and formed a human ladder. One of the men mounted the other's shoulders. He took the children, one at a time, in his arms and then lowered them to safety. Crowds filled Market street and watched the two men perform their remarkable feat. When the children were freed, they held the children in the arms and men were vociferously cheered and the father of the girls was so overcome with gratitude that he cried. The two colored men who performed the acrobatic feat were John Timbres and William Johnson, two hot carriers, who live on Ludlow street. They were rescued from the street in a car on the way, to work when they made the heroic rescue. The house in which the fire occurred has a grocery store on the ground floor, conducted by Michael Kelly, who lives on the second floor with his family. The third floor is occupied by John Cunningham, a widower, with his two daughters, Ante and 4, and Mary and Cunningham kissed his two children good-bye a few minutes before 9 o'clock this morning and started for work. Shortly after the father left Mary went down to the second floor and discovered the fire. The flames spread rapidly and drove them back to the room. Just then the father, who was wearing man passed the house. They heard the children's cries and jumped from the car. They both took in the situation at a glance. A paint store was nearby. One of them ran in the store and brought out a ladder. They placed it against the awning in front of the store and ran pumily up the stairs. They were careful, but they managed to find a perch on a narrow ledge close to the house. Johnson, the stronger of the two men, braced himself against a shutter. Then Timbres climbed up on his shoulders until he stood erect. He stretched out his arms and managed to reach to within a foot of the children. Timbres called to the younger girl to jump. He caught him arms and lowered her to the awning. He extended his arms and caught the older girl when she leaped from the window. The father of the two girls, who was several blocks away when he heard of the fire, rushed back, reaching the house just as the two colored men jumped down from the awning. But the two colored men had done he was overcome with emotion. Cunningham wanted to reward the two men, but they refused to accept any money. WELCOME TO REV. RANSOM He Outlines Character of Work He Hopes to Do in New York Posture. The specious auditorium of Bethel A. M. E. church was well filled on Friday night, August 9 to attend a welcome reception to the new pastor, Rev. Reedy C. Ransom and family, Mr. John H. Robinson, clerk of the church, presided as master of ceremonies, and paid a high tribute to Rev. Ransom. He also read a letter from Rev. Gilbert, pastor of Mr. Olivet Baptist church, expressing his regret at being unable to be present, a warm welcome to Dr. Ransom as a friend, and a present gift to the different auxiliaries of the Church were then introduced as follows: Trustee board, Mr. Charles Holmes; stewards, Mr. J. B. Pinkney; class leaders, Mr. John Green; stewardesses, Mrs. Loisa Grouseber; king's daughters, Ida H. Clayton; Dr. McMullen, pastor of Mother Zion A. M. E. church, spoke in behalf of his denomination. He said he had known Dr. Ransom for eighteen years and that he attended Pittsylvania Lakes, and that the Ministerial Association of Greater New York was waged to receive such valuable reeforcement. Rev Wm. H. Brooke, D. D. spoke on behalf of St. Mark's M. E. church and said that the progressive spirit and personality of Rev. Ransom would prove a blessing to the city. Rev. A. R. Cooper, M. E. church, Bridge Street, M. E. church, Brooklyn Bridge, behalf of the ministers of the New York Conference of the A. M. E. church. Reys, Roben of Bishops Chapel, Chase of Bethlehem Chapel and Dr. Askew of Bermuda were seated upon the platform. Mr. Samuel Griffin, president of the trustee board of Charles Street church, Boston, came over to attend the reception. A fine musical program was moderated by Prent. Fred Savage and his choir. And great applause. Rev. Ransom was introduced. After expressing for himself and family his appreciation of the coral dwal welcome, he said he was here to serve not only Bethle church, but the church of that city, and to point out that the moral city's social redeemation of the Negroes in the Oxy, who are becoming increasingly numerous, had been left by the rest of the community to the Negroes themselves. It was a burden which our churches and clergy could not escape. Others might point to our ignorance, poverty, vice and crime but the Negro clergy he said, certainly fondly lend to grapple with the work of their rescue and unbuilding. Despite the warmth of the welcome he had received, he had been informed, he said, that there were those who were apprehensive as to the stand he would take concerning men and measures affecting the race as a whole. He declared his platform in brief to be: that he wore no man's collar either in church or state, he did his own thinking. In civic affairs he would vigorously oppose the enemies and betrayers of the race; he would at all times contend for every inch of ground that belonged to the Negro under the Constitution and the laws, he would make his point as large as he would make his point as large as he interested of the people in the community and cooperate with all forces without as well as within the church for the upholding of the people. At the conclusion of He Ransom's address a collation was served in the vestry by auxiliaries of the church. Filipinas Graduate. Critto, Aug. 12.

At the Harlem Opera House, conducted by Hurtig and Seamon, a new colored comedian was presented to the New York public for inspection Monday night in the person of Harrison Stewart, who for several years has been doing the leading comedy work for the Pekin Stock Company of, Chicago. He is the character that Stewart, who plays the title role, bids fair to be one of the race's leading comedians. Although not more than 25 years old, he is already very clever and if he keeps up the pace he has set, Williams and Walker, Ernest Ilogan and all of the big colored comedians will have to look out for their laurels. Of course, Stewart could not just now be put up with comparison with the above-named stars, but his acting is of such calibration that he is perfectly suited to the situation, and it creates a once an impression that, like wine, he will improve with age. The initial performance of the Pokin Stock company at the Harlem Opera House Monday evening, to my mind, meant much. It is not the importance attached to a three weeks' engagement in New York, as to the argument it will make in favor of putting a colored theater in Jurassic Park. The making performance of "Captain Rufus," the engagement will certainly prove a success. Tuesday the following inquiry became common among the Afro-Americans of New York: "If Chicago can support a theater and an all-colored cast, why not New York?" I predict that within a few months an incarnation in Chicago will have a rival to be conducted in New York at some future date. I am of the opinion that New York could have a colored playhouse that would be made one of the most unique and attractive amusement places in the metropolis. Others may differ and advance the argument that conditions are different in the two cities and that what is successful in Chicago may not be in New York. However, I do not think that such a thought can be logically advanced in proposition of the case. In proposition just what New York will do relative to having a colored theater, and I believe we will have an opportunity to settle the question before long. Although I have dwelt on the debut of Harrison Stewart I have failed to refer to the vehicle which enables him to furish the fun. "Captain Rufus" is a musical comedy which oftimes borders on the melodramatic. Taken as a whole, it is piece well well together with the comedy and the lines allow Stewart and his associates a chance to bring about some very amusing situations. If the staging of the play I would advise some of our stage managers to visit the Harlem Opera House this week and see just what J. Ed. Green is doing. He has used stage settings which are consistent with the atmosphere of the place and is living up to the nickname of the "Black Belasco" given him by the Chicago papers. J. Lawrence Freeman, former musical director of the company under his supervision and as most of us know how the chorus of the "Rufus Rastus" show could sing, I will say "muf soel." The other members in the cast, aside from Stewart, gave a creditable performance. In the general summary, "Captain Rufus," with his colored actors, also. CUBA'S YELLOW FEVER IN HAND Sofiayna Sanitation Supervisor, but Export, Rinda, New Cause HAVANA, Aug. 12. Major J. R. Kean supervisor of the Department of Sanitation here, has received a report from Cienfugos. Provinces of Santa Clara saying no additional cases of yellow fever are being treated in Milwaukee Hospital. The patients are members of Hospital Corps. With the exception of one handshake no case of yellow fever has occurred among the troops forming the garrison, which is quartered at a distance from the hospital. The infection is believed to have originated in the city of Cienfugos, where the conditions are favorable to a rapid spread of the disease owing to the inadequate water supply and the insufficient sanitation. Sergeant Wesley Merritt of the Hospital Corps, one of the first men to be infected, is dead. The program of well-known Cuban expert in yellow fever, who was sent to investigate the situation in Cienfugos, reports the existence of several cases of yellow fever in the city. There is little probability, he says, of the American garrison becoming infected as full precautions are being taken. Newark, New Jersey Arthur O. Johnson of Washington. D.

Big Boy, a six-foot South Carolina Negro, who has been working in the Pennsylvania excavation, started out yesterday morning to spend the week's wages he had drawn the day before and it ended in someone blowing off the top of Big Boy's head. Big-Boy's real name was Oscar Hicka, but the police didn't find it out for hours, because none of the men he worked with knew it. The day he joined, the shovel brigade on the Pennsylvania work two months ago the Negro got his nickname because he was a shovel man. He laughed while he worked and couldn't be drawn into a quarrel. Big Boy fitted him so well that no one asked him his name and he didn't volunteer to tell it. While some of Big Boy's fellow workmen were on their way to the big excavation yesterday morning they were surprised to see him staggering along Seventh avenue with a white woman. When they spoke to him he muttered a surly reply and hurched on down the street, with the woman at his heels. Big Boy spent the foremost in the black and tan resorts in the neighborhood. About 11 o'clock he had his first temperate thought of the day, and he decided to go to Mammy Cole's coffee and pie shop at 143 West 32d street and get a cup of the root soup in a jar; a briskie bimonth at Mammy Cole's little shop in the gathering place of a crowd of shiftless Negroes and whites. The same old banjo playing crowd was there when Big Boy and his companion entered. Most of them knew him, but he wasn't in a mood to reply to their greetings. As he sat down he tumbled over a two-footed Cole, one Mammy's two sons. The dog gave a good, and Beverly, who was behind the counter, shouted: "Say, nigger, be careful whose dog you're stepping on." Big Boy instantly lifted his right foot and sent the dog sprawling to the other side of the room. Then there was a pistol shot and Big Boy staggered toward the big wound in the top of his head. The restaurant was in an uprour. The men in the place fought to get our before the police arrived, but the half dozen women, white and black, were too frightened to move. Finally the wounded Negro made his way to the street, but his strength was gone and he fell before he got to the corner of Seventh avenue. A truck driver jumped off his wagon and saw that the Negro was dead. He pulled out a blanket and spread it over the body. Policemen Haggerty, arrested Ross Young, a Negro barber, and four women, one of pythom was white. They were held by the Coroner as witnesses. An alarm was sent out for Beverly Coles, who has a reputation in the neighborhood as a bouncy player. SHAW WILL CASE BEFORE COURT. Ten: Eyek Heira are Still Fighting the Shaw Will Cause. Lawyer Alfred C. Cowen, of 206 Broadway, New York city, who represents the Ten Eyck heirs in the contest that they are making to overthrow the will of Mary E. Shaw, billed briefs on the 20th instant, in which some very interesting legal points are involved. Catherine Ann Ten Eyck died in 1938, and gave Mary E. Shaw the interest in her property for life, with the power to dispose of it to such person, or persons as she might choose by will. The heirs contend that Mary E. Shaw did not properly exercise the power which was repossed in her by the terms of the Ten Eyck will, that Mrs. Shaw did not have the right under the Ten Eyck will, to give the property to corporations, when the Ten Eyck will said that she could give it to "person or persons." Second, that the bequest made to the Tuskegee Normal school was contrary to the statutes of this State, at the death of Mrs. Ten Eyck, in 1852, to the effect, that a foreign corporation could not take real estate by devise in this State at that time and the fact that that disability imposed on foreign corporations by the statutes of this State having been removed by the passage of an act passed in 1854, giving a foreign corporation the right to take and hold real property in the State, also cannot be taken advantage of by the Tuskegee Institute, as that disability was removed after the death of Mrs. Ten Eyck, in or in other words, it being "in post facto law" and thereby does not affect devises made by its passage. Third. That by the terms of Mrs. Ten Eyek's will Mrs. Shaw did not take the fee, neither did Mrs. Ten Eyek intend that she should take the fee in her estate, but only the interest for life of the fee and not profits therefrom. On the other hand, the heirs, content that she should take the fee, not wish a reminder, subject however, to being directed by Mrs. Shaw upon her properly exercising the power conferred upon her by Mrs. Ten Eyek. Fourth. If their contention should not be sustained they claim the right to raise the question that Mrs. Shaw left a living husband and that she game more than half of the state to corporations, in vivo, than half of the state to corporations, in vivo, of New York. That there is no decision in this or any other State, holding that person or persons and a corporation are the same or synonymous terms. Manhattan, N. M. C. Nutsen With the approach of fall signs of greater activity are beginning to show themselves at the rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association.

Mr. and Mrs. William Still were called home through the death of a very dear friend, who we are also sorry to lose. E. M. Morgan to Be Postmaster. The appointment of Assistant Postmaster Edward M. Morgan to the postmastership of this city is assured. The announcement is expected from President Rosewell at Oyster Bay today. Since the conference at the President's summer home yesterday at which Postmaster General Meyer, Secretary Root and Secretary Tagg, were present the matter has been settled. The delay in making the appointment is said to have been due to the effect it might have upon the political situation in this State. Postmaster General Meyer told the President that Mr. Morgan's long service entitled him to the office and suggested that his appointment was needed to bring about many needed changes in this city. Mr. Meyer thinks that Mr. Morgan, on account of his long practical experience, can best put into practice the plans which the Postmaster General has for the improvement of the postal service here. Most of the Republican leaders, it is said, will be satisfied with Mr. Morgan's appointment. Chairman Herbert Parsons of the Republican County Committee has been bolting out for the appointment of William C. Wilson, but it is expected he will acquiesce gracefully to the weight of opinion. Mr. Morgan's long memory and accurate knowledge of the complicated details of the past the business is proved. He knows the business well and training him in the laws and regulations some more than they know. He is never at a loss for the legal advice who is willing open to make a ruling.

I find it the most delightful hair dressing and tonic I have ever used, altogether different from the many cheap pomades and vaselines on the market. It makes my hair so beautiful, soft, silky, and has entirely removed all dandruff and stopped it from falling out and breaking off.

KAUQI 120 West 79th FAMOUS BUILDING BEING DESTROYED Where Society of Friends Made First Prayer, Against Slavery—North American's Cutting—Schooter Incense Fundament. PHILADELPHIA, August 12.—Another of the old buildings of Germantown, a fashionable suburb of Philadelphia, date back to the days of Francis Daniel Pasterious, in the interest of trade, Contractor T J. Carberry being now engaged in teaching out a portion of the front of the old Kunders or Conrad House, No. 5100 Germantown avenue, to make way for a modern show window. The house is principally famous as the one in which the meeting of Friends, which, in 1688, adopted the first protest against human slavery, was held. There were several other old houses in which meetings were held. But it is generally accepted the Fulton house, the first protested by the Kunders house. It was offered by Pasterios on February 18, 1688, and was signed by Garrett Hendicker, Derrick Up de Graff, Francis Daniel Pasteriorus and Abraham, Jr., Den Graff. The monthly meeting at Dublin, on February 28, found the protest "so weighty we think it not expedient to meddle with it here," and committed it to the quarterly meeting, "the remor of it being nearly related to the truth." The Quarterly meeting in April 1688 found it a "thing of too great weight," and passed it on to the Yearly Meeting at Fourth and Arch street. It was 88 years later before the Friends' Discipline finally shut out of Christian fellowship any one holding slaves. Nobody can positively state just how much of the original structure remains, but the workmen on the building have been greatly annoyed by relic hunters. All the old stones taken out are, however, carefully guarded and are to be used by a Germantown builder in the construction of the under tuff sall, which for so many years was a landmark in the side of the old Buckins House, known as the Ship House, on Germantown avenue, below Duval street. They "sure did" have a good time, those 180 little Afro-American children from West Philadelphia, who were beneficiaries Saturday of the North American's Outing Fund. From early morning until 6 o'clock in the evening they rcmped and played on the banks of the Wishakleon. There were lots of things to occupy the time, but the memory of the dinner which they had at Wishakleon Hall will linger longer than any other incident. The Rev. John Sword, pastor of St. Michael and All Angels Afro-American Protestant Episcopal church, at Fort Bird and Wallace where a leading spirit of the day's outing. There were two innates St. Michels' Home for for Crippled Children and from the House of the Holy Child, both Afro-American Institutions. The responsibility of keeping the little ones out of danger was divided between fifteen men and women, who assisted the matron sent by the North American to see that the little ones had a good time. Charles D. Shepherd, an Afro-American, living at 1033 South Boulevard street, had a narrow escape on Thursday morning, while sitting in the front of a trolley car. The car he was on crashed into another car, he escaped with a slight bruise on his leg. The glass works at Glasseboro are trying once more to solve the help problem. Last year boys were imported from New York. In fact, they did not prove safe factory. But they could now have Afro-American help and have Lewis Shibby down in Virginia this week. He has secured twenty-seven young men down there so far, whom he thinks will prove capable. Because of a slight stomach disorder, Isaiah D. Wilson, an Afro-American of 1748 Woodstock street, refused to partake of a rice pudding that his wife suggested making from a bottle of milk found on the doorstep of their home last Saturday morning, together with the customary quart served them each day. This temporary illness of Wilson probably resulted that one quart was sufficient for them, finally decided that four Angora cats should benefit Mrs. Wilson's supposed fortune. Pouring the milk into four large, saurous, the cats consumed the milk with a relish, and loudly mewed for more. Shortly after receiving this treat, the felines, with cries of pain, tormally through the house creating pandemonium wherever they went. After much excitement the crazed pets were subdued Somewhat, and removed to the yard, where three of them died in awful agony, the police made by some malicious person to injure the family by depositing the poisoned milk on the door step, the police of the Twenty third district were notified of the affair and an investigation is being made. Mrs. Wilson threw the remaining容容 into the milk, thus destroying any possibility of making a chemical analysis of the milk. It was decided Friday, in Quarter Sessions Court, that it was not a serious offense for a white man to shoot an Afro-American in this city. William Connor, a young white man, who was charged with firing three shots at James Iryan, an Afro-American, and wounding him was convicted of the lowest degree of assault in this county, and convicted him to murey. It was shown that Connor had a grievance against the Afro-American, and had wifully shot at him, which practically was aggrigated assault with intent to kill. In answer to the plea of Attorney Thomas F. McNichol the jury took the lenient view of the case. Attorney McNichol then asked the court to let Connor off altogether, and the prisoner's mother then added her plea to that of the attorneys. To top matters of the young man's assault to the bar, the judge sent Connor's freedom. As the Afro-American was not seriously injured, Judge Ferguson let Connor go without even a reprime. Herkimer Rosebone, one of Philadelphia's prominent Afro-American businessmen, died Saturday morning at his country residence Laughorne, of a complained heart. He was a native to mourn his loss. His estate is valued at $60,000. To Bury Owe Dead FRANKFORT, Ky., Aug. 12. The Colored Undertakers' Association of Kentucky was held here in the hall of the House of Representatives. T. K. Robb, president, called the meeting to order, and the business of three days was carried on with much dispatched. The educational meeting of the First Baptist church was the largest attended meeting since the visit of D. K. Underdaker, T. Wasson, Dr. K. Robb, and R. W. Alofe and President T. K. Robb made splendid addresses. A resolution was adopted, asking that the Falls City Undertakers' Association agree not to bury colored people. The colored undertakers of the three Falls Cities are not permitted to embalm and bury bodies of white persons and the colored undertakers, on the strength of the resolution. Theel, ask that as a matter of courtesy, he given the patronage of their C. D. Following officers were elected: TWO PROMINENT CONTRACTORS Mr. George Graham and Henry C. Sperrow, Builders of North Carolina, and Their Work. WILMINGTON, N. C., Aug. 12.—At this period of our existence we need minds among us that will not blight our future good in this world. Our thoughts as they issue from our minds will determine the strength of our manhood and our position in the race of life. The Afro-American folk, as a whole, should realise the value of a good thought. The excellent ideas of Dr. Washington gave the race a Tuskegee Institute and his people a modern beer. The thoughts of W. W. Browne took on substantial embodiment and gave us a great commercial institution. The ideas of our inventors have been clothed in iron and steel giving greater comfort to man in various ways. Enter the beautiful-homes of our people in the South-land permeated with the atmosphere of culture and resplitting, their lives and gardens springing, the pedestrian and the loiterers at the gateway, and you will find that these are ennobling ideas transformed into tangible expressions. The Afro-American people possess a creative faculty for useful things. The Afro-American of the South is not barren of reason. His imaginative powers are powerful. If hope is long deferred, his imagination is working and his hindrances will blossom into successes. We want men who will look beyond the dark cloud of existing conditions, into the sunlight powerful enough to raise the seeds of ideas into a plentiful harvest of usefulness and ample enjoyment. These men want followers, who will feel the prodigious strength of their thoughts and help them by allowing good ideas to become noble characters. Give us more young men with a purpose, a lasting affection for home life and the family, to afford them the purity, beauty and usefulness of an Afro-American's idea. We do not consider the fact that God has given the idea as an angel to deliver us from a certain condition that is dragging us downward to utter despair. One will find a number of our people raging like demons, sending forth vituperations and trying to harm the passions of man must be seen in the mood and is building for the comfort of others. Noble thoughts are divorced from this class of men at the time being divorced to destroy every enterprise created by an Afro-American idea. When one possesses commercial ideas capable of directing his forces, there arise thousands of doubting Thomas to create prejudice against a man who can open the door of hope for them and put more dollars into the residential sections of the southern cities there are beautiful structures which are the outcome of Afro-American's ideas. Mr. George Graham, of this city, is prominently placed among the master carpenters of the country. The famous hotel of Florida, "The Ponce de Leon" and the magnificent hostelry of Sawanah, Ga. "The D'e Soto," hold in a visible form the material ideas of this Afro-American contractor. His skill placed him in the position to superintend the most important part of the woodwork of these famous hotels. Mr. Graham's ability and strong character have made him a leader in the carpenter's profession in the cities where he has resided. This man thinks sane and believes in promoting enterprises that will help the other fellow as well as himself. His success in Wilmington is due to his hustling qualities. The new Christian Scientist Temple and a number of palatial residences of New Bern are the constructive ideas of Mr. Henry C. Sparrow, a contractor in masonry, of the "Elm City." What is needed in this section of the country are more young men not creeping through life, and who are not devoid of lofty ideals. Not indifferent to the opportunities given them for their general uplift. Too many of our young men are living a cardless life. There is too large a class whose impulses are downward. No high aspiration nor regard for enhancing their economic value have they. They often deserve the best of the world, considering they are palseless follows who have not accumulated enough of the world's goods to even live decently without a wife. Their ideas not being of the kind to deliver them from drudgery, seemingly they are a menace to our progress. You! Yes, you reader! When you find an Atoe-American, young or old, possessing ideas that will better our conditions in this country, make these ideas a lasting monument. SECOND ANNIVERSARY OF EBENEZER BAPTIST CHURCH Prymothin, Aug. 12. The grand rally and second anniversary of the pastorate of Dr. C. C. Somerville, of Eleanor Baptist church, started the second Sunday in July and continued throughout Friday of the same week.

New Movement started to Elliminate Eureka Fire Company. ASURY PARK, Aug. 12. Another movement was started to eliminate the Eureka company from the fire department when the ordinance passed by the Council and voted by the Mayor several weeks ago was reintroduced and a motion made to pass it. This was done on reading by a vote of four to two, Messrs. Kinnmouth and Winckler voting in the negative and Mr. Carton being absent. The measure will be presented on second and final reading next week and will be passed. Mr. Minot will sponsor for the ordinance. He informed Council that the white firemen had held a meeting and decided to stand firm in their determination to strike unless the Eureka company was dropped. That the Mayor had called a joint meeting and had several conferences with the white firemen, but that all were in vain and that the firemen stood as far apart now as they did when the ordinance was first brought to the attention of the Council. He said there was not the slightest prospect of a settlement of the differences and that it was left for the Council to do something. It was further stated by Mr. Minot that it was impossible for the city to inaugurate a paid department. The expenses, he said, would be between $30,000 and $50,000, which was more than the city could raise for the purpose. In view of this Mr. Minot said the only solution of the problem was to pass the minimums that were recently voted and to then buy the Eureka company badges and assist it in organizing on an independent basis. This would permit members, he said, to protect their homes, which is what they want to keep in existence for. Minot then introduced the ordinance which was once before passed and vetoed. He moved its passage on first reading. There were no remarks made and the ordinance was approved, which served its support from the same members who previously voted for it. They are Messrs. Drew, Walton, Minot and Swain. Local League Organised Gouston, N. C., August 12.
