The distinguished men up to the position present and the programme with exemplary. "The most worthy of the prizewinners was one of the platinum prizes of the programme. After birth reading and prayer by Mr. Gilbert W. Allen, three years afterwards, were given by visiting poets. This to celebrate a platinum feature of the meeting.
After the preliminary convocation were admitted to the alteration, Prof. W. F. Brews of the Palm Business College, this way. His name as an elder officer was brought to the reading room and he received a treasured prize. His gift was 750 pounds by Va. Religion. Prof. Brown was an able brewer, master of charmed photography, pain religion. He said by photograph we can bring out the features of it. It is just as true of religion; by asking the inner man is revealed. He also photographed the soul, and retreated the highest and best in man. He gave various types of music, the musical, intellectual and moral items. He delivered secret acts in the manner. He made a plan to five times honest and public lives. He said he should be fair and honest in dealing with any employees. His address was an ideal discourse, and was delivered in an interesting and charming manner. He was frequently applauded, and at his conclusion, a rising vote of thanks was extended to him.
Among the prominent men present Sunday afternoon were: Doctors P. H. and K. P. Roberts, and Mr. J. R. Gleed, and Hazelco. Sunday afternoon next week, Duke, of the League for the Industrial Improvement of Negroes of New York will be the speaker. The lecture last Wednesday, on "Our Emperor State," was enjoyed by all. Last Tuesday evening was held water at the Library society. The new president, Mr. W. A. Belk, delivered his inaugural address. The cheker team of the association will play their return n. tech with the Central Y. M. C. A. Satin ay evening next at the branch building at 8:30 p. m. A spirited time is expect.

November 19. Great interest is shown in the coming play. The young men of the Association appreciate most heartily the work these young ladies are doing for the branch. Miss Leonard and her committee of young ladies have been working very hard for the Association, and their play on the 19th inst. should be a success. Rehearsals are held regularly. Mr. Lealie Chittick, John D. Jones, Alphonse Martin, William Harper and W. A. Bell are among the bright young men of the Association.
The appearance of Madame Minott, and Thursday evening at the lyceum, was responsible for the large and appreciative gathering who greeted her. During to the press notice of her coming the gathering was composed to great extent of the educated class. The programme consisting of solos, duets, etc. was well rendered by the participant.
After the first part of the programme was concluded, President Yancy, presented Dr. York Russell; who introduced Madame Minott. Dr. Russell said in his introduction that he was glad of the pleasure of presenting Madame Minott, being a pupil of hers, he continued. I can vouch for her wonderful ability as a phrenologist. Madame Minott appeared admist applause. She began by defining phrenology, and giving a brief history of the science. She traced its origin from antiquity, and told of its successive stages up to the present day. She said phrenology is one of the greatest of the sciences. She said phrenology was the study of the mind, and a thorough study of phrenology, she said, would enable us to know human character.
After Madame Minott's excellent lectures on the subject, she read the characters of several persons in the audience, demonstrating her complete trustship of the aplique, she told in an accomade and preface manner the characters of those she read. A rising vote of thanks was extended to her. The Nominating Committee, appointed last Thursday evening, for the purpose of securing names to officers for the next year will report next Thursday evening.
Last Sunday afternoon praise service was held at the lyceum. Mr. John Clark was in charge of the programme. The programme consisted for the most part of testimonials and notes. The feature of the afternoon's programme was the song service conducted by Mr. W. H. Page, choremaster of Ayushima church. Next Thursday evening at the womens will be bankers' night. Mr. Robert Taylor will be one of the speakers. Mr. George W. A. McKee will provide testimony at the byron bay. Edwards' Day will be observed. This is always an interesting occasion. 2.3 brings out a full attendance. The commercial and industrial situation of Kuwait in this country will be discussed. The speaker for the session will be Mr. R. S. Sooten, of Broadway, in ex-
paid to be present. Cyrus G. Allen will present us this company, and good meeting is expected. On the path of Nebraska the museum of the good Whistler, will be opened. The company for presenting plans for the celebration of the twentieth fish anniversary of the booms is working very hard to make the occasion a success. The business is planning a fair to be held soon. The local branch of the New York Business League held an interesting meeting last Tuesday evening at local Pharo. Thirteen new members, were taken in. President Athias provided on the meeting. The aim of the president in districting the city in Franklin districts is a wholesome plan. The new members were E. A. Johnson, C. H Hall, W. H. Bauer, J. E. Tugley, P. R. Dyrt, Luther H. Smith, Fred D. Moryr, W. M. H. Johnson, Levi Williams, S. G. Craig, Joseph Martin, John Hewer and G. A. Branmill.
Rev. Dr. W. H. Brooke, the distinguished pastor of St. Mark's church, praised a powerful and soul-stirring sermon last Sunday morning. He thanked his text from the seventeenth verse of Isaiah, forty-fourth chapter. Dr. Brooke's sermon dealt with the life beyond, or eternal hurling. He said in part, "God has given us the assurance of a grand hurling, and that hurling is centered all who trust in him." Connaught Dr. Doe is the person with the world Dr. Doe is the person with the time watching our opportunities, instead of trusting in God. God will not allow our opponents or enemies to triumph over us. Truth may be on the scaffold, and wrong on the throne, but the power of the Lord is sufficiently strong to give truth on the scaffold the sway over wrong on the throne.
Touching upon the race question, Dr. Brooks said, What is it that kept the Negro in this country, with the mission against him, with the federal court of the land against him, and opposing all sides? He said it was the power of God that kept the Negro. God will not allow the power of one race to triumph over another. He said, yet in the mind of all this opposition, the Negro was the most esteemed race on the face of the globe. Dr. Brooks emphasized the importance of being steadfast and zealous. His sermon stirred his hearers. This is included in the series of sermons being preached by Dr. Brooks.
One of the most interesting and unique institutions in this city is the White Rose Mission in East 60th street. It is a home for working girls who come from different parts of the country, especially the South. The home is an attractive and inviting rendezvous, and the influence of the institution is very keenly by the friendless girls who come to this city in search of employment. Some of the most prominent men of the city are interested in its welfare.
It is interesting to note that in certain streets of the city, inhabited by colored people, the home life is fastly improving. The cultured air in some of our homes is all that one could desire. Education is taking the place of ignorance, and the home life is raised to a standard of ideals. The parents are training the young as they should go by sending them to school, streets of which I refer are 100th street, between Fifth and Tenth avenues, West 80th street, between Central Park West and Eighth avenue, 53d street, between Broadway and Eighth avenue.
The young people of Mount Olivet Baptist church are a very energetic set of young people and play a very important part in the life of the city. The B. Y. P. U. the church, and the literary society, in the center of enthusiasm at each meeting. The debating team has developed some strong debaters and promising orators. An inter-club debate will take place soon. The B. Y. P. U. last Sunday was well attended and a good programme was furnished. Mr. George W. Bute, Counsellor Outreach, Edward Harrison, and Mr. Gilbert are among the lights of the debating club.
The resignation of the Rev. T. H. Gilbert, D. D., pastor of the Mount Olivet Baptist church, into be regretted, as Dr. Gilbert is one of the most forceful preachers in the Baptist connection. The report of the resignation will come up some time in Deer, and it is probable that Dr. Gilbert will insist on its secret. Trouble a bean brewed in the church ever after the resignation of the Rev. C. T. liker, whose style of preaching is son at different from Dr. Gilbert's.
Dr. Gilbert, since his career, has endeavored to contribute to religious life of the church in a intellectual manner, and this has been essential to an element in the church in prefer the emotional, rather than intellectual order of preaching. The acts of opposition are led by Deacon K. and he has succeeded in setting underrable trouble. The parting of Gilbert from New, York will be regretted, since his short stay in city, he has made a profound impress on the religious and intellectual life of the city. It is probably thought that he enter the field of education. Notice of the incident will be re-tened Anx next week.
St. Philip's Parish Home is in its preparations for the annual visitation to friends on the 20th, 21st and 22nd canions can be sent to Mrs. Kate Carmichael, 64 Wall street, or the road C. H. Bishop, 81 West 57th street.
We are here and we may take our places in this new State, using the ballot to defend ourselves and not carnal weapons. I notice that the newly elected Secretary of State says that the first thing the Legislature will do is to pass a Jim Crow law. Let them pass it. They may force us to ride in a freight car, but we must let the world know that a man things in the freight. There is a man thing in the hood of the Negro or stop his progress. We have been free too long for that." J. A. Johnson was elected secretary; W. E. Guy, assistant secretary; E. D. Kemard, statistical secretary; Frank Scott, J. M. Meadows, W. C. Carter, marshals; L. J. Johnson, J. L. Dawson, C. G. Tallierau, S. S. Addin, W. R. Beamer, correspondents to the official church organs.
The following visitors were introduced: Rev. Dr. John H. Collett of Philadelphia, manager of the A. M. E. Book Concern; J. Frank McDonald, Kansas City, Mo., editor of the Western Christian Record; Rev. Dr. J. W. Rankin of Waxahachie, Texas; Rev. Dr. F. F. Washington, Weiner, Texas; Rev. Dr. J. R. Ramaon of Topeca, Kan.; W. H. Jernigan, pastor of the Colored Baptist church; E. P. Ellis of Nashville, Tequila; and Mrs. W. S. Scott of Chicago.
Rev. J. H. Collett, assisted by the presiding elders, administered holy communion. Rev. J. Frank McDonald of Kansas City preached. The conference will be in session until Sunday night.
ALABAMA STATE FAIR
MONTGOMERY, Ala., November 11.—The State fair, which is one of the best of the year in this section, has just closed. One cannot find a better place at which to study the manes of black and white Americans than at one of these State fairs, and especially is their true of the Montgomery fair which has just closed a session lasting ten days. Afro-American have one of the finest buildings upon the grounds, and one curious element in the situation this year was the fact that white people of all classes gave their almost monochromous judgment that the best exhibit on the grounds was in the Afro-American building. This building was literally packed from planning to night with not only colored people, but no white man or woman came upon the grounds without going into the Negro building.
THOUGHT GIRL, A BURGLAR.
Minister Stuart Girl Who Was Trying so far into the Matern
ATLANTA, November 4—Rev. J. A.
Mort, a Negro minister, pastor of the
Mitchall street Methodist Episcopal
church, but might sorrowfully be police
authority, and was placed in a cell,
changed with shooting, possibly fugely,
Jacobie Mort, a Negro girl, who lives
in the same house with the minister at
209 W. Mitchell street.
We says that the girl tried to get into the house by opening the door about 11.30 a'clock, and then tried to open his window, and being frightened, he plotted to an old plaid which had not been worn or Christmas years and fired at her. Her motion is criminal.
are more important. We have dealt with ten million of people—double the population in Scotland—secondly not men but slaves—the very last slaves held by a member of our English-speaking race—who were not only suddenly made freemen, but also entrusted with the ballot.
Proud is the boast, "Slave cannot breathe in Britain! If their lungs Receive our air, that moment they are free. They touch our country, and their shackles fall."
But where the post-liberator stops, his part finished, the statesman's work only begins. The attacks fail, but the citizen falls to emerge. How is the slave to gain, self-control, wisdom's root, when all his days he has been controlled by others? "Arise and walk" was once said to the lame, but a miracle-worker was required to effect this instant care. It is the necessarily slow development of the slave into the citizen which I propose to lay, before you to-night.
In one respect the problem is unique. This Negro is called upon to rise in the slave slavery to citizenship in the presence of a civilization representative of the highest-his shortcomings, backsliding, failures, cannot but be numerous and discouraging, and the contrast between whites and blacks in many respects such as to produce the belief in the minds of their former masters that the end striven for is unattainable. Once a slave, always a slave, so far as the Negro race is concerned, is their natural conclusion.
Here we have between four and five millions of slaves, formerly held in ignorance, unable to read or write, without churches, schools or property of any kind, and yet held in the grip of citizenship, their former masters surrounding them incarcerated at their elevation. How were the Negroes recently slaves to be made fit as citizen—a problem that might appeal the bravest. Yet this was the one fundamental requirement, for without improvement of the black race no satisfactory solution was possible.
After a period of fifty years we are to-night to impulse whether the American Negro is strong and improve; this I propose to answer by chiting fox.
The first question the ethnologist will naturally ask is: Has he proved himself able to live in contact with civilization, and increase in a freeman, or does he slowly die out like the American Indian, Mardi or Hippopotamus? The common answer is that the total number of Negroes in America
In 1900 was 4,000,700.
In 1920, 2,000,700.
Increase in twenty years, 3,200,900,
equal to 44.3 per cent., almost double
the rate of increase of the United
Kingdom, and within three per cent. of
the increase of America, white and
black combined. The Negro race members to day about ten million. It does not increase as fast as the white in America because there is no black integration; taking only white and black, their negative increase must be best equal. There is no trace of do
lem, we must never forget that the "poop whites" are an element complicating the situation; the attitude of this class to the black being intently hostile—far beyond that of the former slaveholding aristocrats.
In 1860, Negro schools were almost unknown, it being unlawful to teach the slave. In the year 1800, 1,086,734 colored youths attended public school, and 17,138 attended higher schools of learning. The warfare against ignorance goes on at space among both whites and blacks. For twenty years after the war progress in providing Negro schools by the States was very slow, but since 1860 there has been spent by the States in their support, $105,807,830—about twenty-five million-sterling. In addition to this, all over the South the Negro is providing additional school buildings and extending the term for keeping them open each year beyond that fixed by the States, the additional cost thereof being defrayed by the Negroes.
Surely no better proof can be given of his desire and ability to rise and become a respectable member of society than the production of a bank book with a good balance, or, better still, the title to a farm or a house free of debt. The saving man is par excellence the model citizen—peaceable, sober, industrious and frugal. The magic of property works wonders indeed, and pray remember once more that only forty three years ago he, a slave, the property of a master, found himself suddenly and without warning his own master, face to face with duties to which he was wholly a stranger—self-support, self-direction and self-control, the care of wife and children, wear-caring and the expenditure of wages, the duties of citizenship, including the right of voting, all thrust upon him who had been until that hour possessed of nothing, not even of himself, without home, school, church, or any of the elements of civilized life. The house or cow fed in install and worked on the estate had nearly to do, with providing for itself than the general field slave. Only the few hundred and craftsman of a much higher than. How the Negro has added the ambition and the ability to save and own his home or his farm? Does he take to the bank, and is he making a successful farmer and landlord? These are vital points housing upon his future. Let us examine the record.
In 1899 no less than 764,717 farms, 548,826 acres, 49,914 square miles, just the area of England and Wales, or double that of Scotland, were owned or remitted by Negroes, who forty years previously owned nothing. These embraced, in the Japanese Orient states, 6.2 per cent. of all the farms; in the South Atlantic Islands, to per cent. in the Southern States—Florida, South east, Georgia 8.9 per cent. Alabama
William Monroe Trotter is a man who was accidentally bullied into motoriety and thrust before the public gaze. Descending from a father who was an author-of note, with a splendid military record and brilliant career as recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, Trotter inherited wealth and family prestige; was given a Harvard education and received a Magna Cum Laude. But his wealth, social position and Harvard education did not make him notorious. Trotter became notorious not through his own efforts, but through a newspaper that others had built up and through a riot that he did not plan. The Boston riot of July, 1899, in which Booker T. Washington was hissed and interrupted and in which Trotter was accidentally arrested and sent to jail, gave Trotter international renown.
Trotter is a Jonah to any cause he connects himself with, and through his own rashness constantly boomerangs himself. He has many of the characteristics of an overgrown unphisticated school boy. He does not understand human nature. He is overbearing and dominating in his disposition and cannot brook opposition. It is impossible for a man with ideas and opinions to be able to understand the opportunities and individuality to get along with Trotter. That is why Dr. S. E. Courtney would not recognize Trotter as his huge lord; that is why W. H. Lewis, George Washington Forbes, Archibald Grimse, Clement G. Morgan, Butler R. Wilson, Johnson W. Hill, W. E. Burghardt Dubois, Solomon Gainen, Richard White, Mr. Hicks, and others of Trotter's most powerful Boston friends have deserted him and left him hanging in mid air. Trotter can never become a world leader of the Negro race, because he lacks the tact, discretion, the mental balance, the sound judgment, the family of mind, the biblical wisdom, the ethical integrity of a wide领语 of man. He is a good lecturer, but not a wise engineer. He is a good讲师, but a poor general. That is why the St. Mark's Literary, under the leadership of President G. W. Rush and Dr. B. E. Robbins, shook off the Trotter yell. Trotter can never drum out a crowd for a mass meeting unless he appeals to the colored preachers to help him by giving them a place on the program. Even then he does not indulge himself in the speaker of the evening. Forbes was chosen, number of the Negro Movement by an overwhelming vote against the opposition of Trotter.

This developed upon lines different from Hampton in one important feature. Here all is the work of Degroves, the principal and professors, and even the architects are colored. Hampton employs white professors, and has a white man in charge. The total number of scholars at Tuskegee, including classes outside, was last year, 1,048,1021 being students regularly enrolled. All but about one hundred of the regular students board and sleep in the grounds. Twenty-three hundred acres of land surrounding are owned by the institute and cultivated by the students, part being an experimental farm.
The choir alone is worth traveling to Tuskegee to hear. The main hall is large and vaulted, the stage simple, acoustic fine. The choir of more than one hundred and fifty students sat back of the speakers, who occupied the front of the stage. I was not prepared for such enchanting strains as burst upon us from unseen singers. The music was sacred, and some of the finest gems were sung. I have heard many of the fine choirs of the world, in the Crystal Palace, St. James's Hall, Rome, Dresden, Paris, New York, and elsewhere; seldom do I miss an oratorio if I can help it, but never in my life did choral music affect me at Tuskegee. Even the Russian choir in St. Petersburg I must rank second. The pure Negro voice is unique. The organ unfortunately was very small. One felt there was some ground for preferring the human voice for praise, for even the finest organ lacks something when Negro voices swell.
Booker Washington is the combined Moses and Joshua of his people. Not only has he led them to the promised land, but still lives to teach them by example and precept how properly to enjoy it. He is one of these extraordinary men who rise at rare intervals and work miracles. Born a slave, he is to-day the acknowledged leader of his race—a modest, gentlemanly man, of pure, simple life and engaging qualities, supremely wise, an orator, organizer and administrator combined. Considering what he was and what he is, and what he has already accomplished, the point he starts with is that he is an attained, he certainly is one of the most wonderful men living or who has ever lived. History is to tell of two Washington, the white and the black, one the father of his country, the other the leader of his race. I command to you his autobiography, "Up from Slavery," as companion to "The Life of General Armstrong."
"There were giants in those days, we are apt to exclaim, and lament their absence in our own age, but this arises from our failure to recognize the gigantic proportions of some of our contemporaries. To-day is a King in disguise, Carlyle illus. until viewed in their proper perspective, by one who has the gift to see and reveal the true heroes to the masses. Future ages are to recognize our contemporary, Booker Washington, the slave; as a giant, distinguishing the age he lived in, and, General Armstrong, the pioneer, as another who can never be forgotten in the history of the Negro race. He will grow as he lives, and he is never to be canonized as true heroes to be canonized as true heroes of civilization, whose life work was/neither to kill nor main, but to serve or save their fellows.
In the task of elevating the Negro the part played by the Northern people, from the inception of the Hampton School idea to the present day, has been great. Not only have many millions of dollars been contributed, but many earnest men have given, and are still giving their personal services, giving not money only, but themselves to the cause. Among these there is one who deserves special recognition, Robert C. Ogden, of New York, than whom none was closer to General Armstrong front first to last, and who still serves, as chairman of the Southern Business Association, as the North should co-operate with the Sentinel in the great task, for it is equally responsible for slavery.
Lest you separate, holding the view that there remains little more to be accomplished in the Negro problem, let me say that all that has been done, encouraging as it undoubtedly is, yet is trifling compared with what remains to be done.
The advanced few are only the leaders of the vast multitude that are still to be stimulated to move forward. Nor are the leaders themselves, with certain exceptions, all that it is hoped they are yet to become.
When you are, told of, the number owing land or attending school, or of the millions of church members, and the amount of wealth and of land possessed by the Negro, pray remember that they number ten millions, scattered over an area nearly half as great as Europe. The be'bie spots have brought
Missouri, my personal experience of the South, it is compared with that of many Iberians who have been from the first, and still are leaders in the work of elevating the Negro, lead, me to endorse the opinion of one of the best-known and foremost of these, the Rev. Lynan Abbott, editor of The Outlook, who has recently declared that "never in the history of man has a race made such educational and material progress in forty years as the American Negro."

Dolder had enlarged services Sunday. Next Sunday is rally day and reporting day of the fair. Friday evening. November 13. will be at Zion. At the Zion church church. Each of the programs will take part in the concert. It promises to be a very interesting affair, as some of the trustees have not sung since "Noah was a limb." As this is the last night of the all the contents will be closed and prizes awarded immediately after the concert.

Trotter has long been an open-ended problem, an unexplained mystery, an unanswered puzzle and commendation, a Gordian knot and a Sphinx riddle to some of his Harvard professors and Boston friends. I have a letter in my possession from a famous Harvard professor utterly routing Trotter's proscriptions to leadership and real greatness, which I will not give to the prank because I do not desire to utterly assimilate Trotter's influence. I desire to leave some spark and breath of life in him.
Trotter descends to patty and contemptible things that no other educated man would dream of stooping to. He has not the largeness and magnanimity of mind, the breadth of view and urbanity of spirit, which is supposed to be a biological and necessary consequence and result of a liberal education. Frequently a scholar and writer like Samuel, Johnson and Thomas Carlyle is not a Beau Brummel in dress or a Lord Chesterfield in manners. But a cultured man possesses the wisdom, life and mountain top. He is supposed to have a wide perspective. His vision is supposed to be down the vista of the ages. Now Trotter's point of view is never that of an educated man. One to meet Trotter, without knowing that he holds a diploma from Harvard, would never glean from his conversation that he had ever breathed the university atmosphere. In fact, his range of information and point of view is much more narrow and circumscribed than that of Editor T. Thomas Fortune and Dr. Booker T. Washington, whom he criticizes and who have never matriculated in Harvard. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Kelly Miller, Dr. S. E. Court, Lester W. Parker, E. P. Cook, Dr. F. J. Griend and Mr. L. C. Mershaw are brilliant examples of the possibilities of the higher education, while Trotter is a striking example of a man who has absorbed but not assimilated and digested knowledge and information.
In fact, in Trotter, we behold a man who has lived all of his life in and around Boston, who has spent four years in Harvard University and yet has taught English, gugge and literary style of a thug rather than that of a cultured gentleman. He entered Harvard a diamond in the rongh, whose rough edge was never taken off. It can be readily seen how Trotter may be a type and grade of man who cannot be improved, by a crude, rough state to the polished form.
But what I cannot understand is how Trottler could breathe the literary atmosphere of Boston all his life and spend four years in Harvard and still turn off such stuff and trash as he does in his editorials and butcher, and murder, and slaughter the Queen's English as he does. His sentences are dull, heavy, clumsy, involved, loose and disjointed. He does not know how to construct a paragraph. There is no swing in phrasing, the story is lacking in balance, proportion and musical cadence. But while Trottler may not have the comprehensive mind to master the principles of rhetoric; while he may not be able to apply the principles of unity, mass and coherence to the sentence, paragraph and editorial; while he may be unable to detect the secret of the charm of Newman's, Pater's, Ruskin's, Curtis's, Mitchell's and Gautier's style, still just as intelligent people acquire polished and refined manners not only by using an echequette, but by imbuing politically sound words that Trottler living all his life within the shadow of Harvard University and mingling and associating with Boston people, from whose lips flowed a well of English pure and undefiled, would have acquired some of the graces of style. It is an unparadigmatic sin for any educated man to write dull, heavy, clumsy and slovenly sentences. His Guardian editorials and his wretched English are a disgrace to his Alma Mater. It would be enough to make him a writer, but not to rise from the dead to know that a Harvard graduate was writing the Queen's English as thugs write it and speak it.
But it would not be fair to blame Harvard University for Trotter's mental defects and limitations. Nature in fashioning Trotter's mind and body intended that his hands should dig up stumps rather than that his brain should dig into Greek roots. Dame Nature intended that he should plough up land rather than plough through philosophy. A splendid ploughman and field hand was spotted a poet in college and Trotter to college, for he is absolutely devoid of literary dignity. I may seem too severe upon a former friend of mine. But consider that from time immemorial, the three R's have been the cornerstone of education. "Reading, writing and arithmetic, taught as a rule by the hickory stick," have been the alphabet and basis of ancient, medieval and modern education. Reading gives a man inspiration, the power to absorb great thoughts and assimilate great ideas from the world's master minds. Writing gives a man expression, the power to express his ideas and communicate his ideas to his fellow students and higher mathematics gives a man the power to think clearly, logically and consecutively. The question may well be asked which of these three fruits of university training has my hot-headed friend Trotter acquired? None whatever.
Trotter derived no inspiring and en-
nobling thoughts, so great and great
ideas from his contacts with Harvard

In a word, Trotter is a Harvard graduate, who left the blues and bushcraft of a rural scholar and cultural gentleman; but on the contrary, possesses the ideals and instincts of a thing and blackguard. His part in the Boston riot of July, 1908, the unjustified, revengful and vindictive spirit of his editorials, the bad taste of his blackguardism and his vicious English have caused him to be detected and despised by colored and white alike in Boston.
Trotter keeps saying, "Boys, stand by me and the cause; stand by me and the cause." Just as Louis XIV said, "I am the State." Trotter believes, "I, William Mourne Trotter, am the cause." And any man, no matter he bowed and kneed, is willed to fall down and worship Trotter will be paged before the country, in The Guardian's column, as one of earth's immortals. And any man, no matter how noble he is, who will not be bound luna, with unpaired hand and trembling accents, say to Trotter, "My Lord and I will be bound by Trotter to do," will be bound by Trotter as a race traitor, a sacrilegious rascal and blasphemous soundrel.
Why does Trotter hate Courtney Lewis, Morgan, Forbes, Grimke and myself so? He is jealous of our power and influence. Trotter knows that he cannot handle and manipulate men. He knows that he has no gifts as a speaker. He knows that he has no gifts as a director, a director in line with blackguard people as a barrionist politician does. And he fears lest we five should combine against him, knowing that if we do, he would be buried beyond the hope of redemption, ya, buried so deep in the bottom pat of an earthly hell that all the angels in glory and the prayers of Archangel Gabriel himself could not extricate him. Nothing short of divine intervention could save him, and the pitfalls into which he would land through attempting, like the rash lion of classical mythology, to soar into the empirean of immortal fame upon wings of wax that melted before the streaming radiance and effulgent glory of the bright shining snowday sun, as it swept upon the wings of the morning, in imperial majesty, through the trackless ether and across the arcal blue imminent bed where the splendent heavens with its glowing light.

WARNHORNE. Nov. 18. If anybody went to Grants Army Hall last Thursday night in search of a sensation he came away sadly disappointed. Instead of the denunciation of the administration, heralded far and wide by the "hotair" element, or the excoriation of the "grand-old party" for its alleged shortcomings, the meeting took on many features of the old-fashioned Republican ratification gathering. Lawyer Thomas L. Jones presided, and everything went off in orderly style. Mr. W. Calvin Chase editor of The Bee, made the principal address of the evening. Mr. Chase won enthusiastic aplause when he declared that the colored voters of the country should solidly support the Republican nominee for President, no matter who he may be. As the meeting was the formal opening of the campaign for delegates to the National Convention, this statement by Mr. Chase may be regarded as the keynote of his candidacy for delegate. Resolutions were adopted upholding the cardinal principles of the Republican party, and asking for fair treatment for the Negro, both in legislation and in official recognition. Other speeches were by J. M. McKinney,wendell Scott, Jesse Foster and Miss Bell. Music was furnished by the Howard University orchestra.
Upon the recommendation of Auditor Ralph W. Tyler, Mr. Edmund W. Patten, of Texas, for years a messenger in the Treasury Department at $600 per annum, has been promoted to a $900 clerkship and transferred to the office of the auditor of the Navy Department. Thus far Mr. Tyler has secured the appointment of one clerk from $1,000 to $1,200, carrying an assistant chief of division authority, has secured the appointment of another clerk in his office, and inspired the promotion of Chaplain W. T. Anderson to the rank of major in the army. Mr. Patten's promotion makes him the fourth colored man directly advanced through the efforts of Mr. Tyler. Superintendent W. K. Chancellor, of the police service, has worked out a solution for the problems that have been worrying the present administration. He recommends to the Board of Education a reclassification of teachers by salaries and puts forward a plan to secure a greater centralization of control on the part of the superintendent. As a remedy for the difficulties that have surrounded the colored schools, Dr. Chancellor proposes to separate the colored and non-colored geographical divisions within the city, four to be composed exclusively of white schools and two to be composed exclusively of colored schools. For the supervision of each division, one associate superintendent is to be in charge as administrative officer, such division superintendents, acting with the superintendent, to constitute a board of superintendents, which shall control the administration of school services. The Division by and with the consent of the Board of Education Said Dr. Chancellor, in explanation of the working methods of his plan.
"The board of superintendents, for the purpose of considering appointments, promotions, transfers, demotions and dismissals of teachers in the white schools, should consist of the white men, women and children of far more advanced schools of the superintendent and the colored members of the board; but in all other respects, the board of superintendents, as far as may be practicable, should consider all educational questions in full session. The board of superintendents for the colored schools has so colored schools classes and schools in which colored children are taught." Dr. Chancellor's scheme has not as yet been brought closely enough to the scrutiny of the leaders of educational thought to bring out an expression as to its feasibility or superiority to the usual observer it appears to be a somewhat fantastic response to the demand made by the colored people for a larger degree of self-government in the administration of their own schools, and to meet the objections of certain whites to have the time of the white memb-
Superintendent Chancellor also asks that the M Street High School be abandoned for high school purposes, and a new building be erected at some convenient point, modern in construction and with a high school building it is planned to use the present M street building as a grammar school. Condemnation proceedings will probably be instituted to secure sufficient ground for the construction of the new building to take the place of the dilapidated Mott School, near Howard University. Money will be provided for the structure and work will be commenced as soon as practicable.
A large audience at the Second Baptist Lyceum, gave Auditor Ralph W. Tyler a warm reception Sunday when he delivered an instructive address on "Race Restrictions" and "Evidence of Race Advancement" in connection with the Lincoln Temple Congregational church, took high ground in his analysis of the public school question in a recent paper before the Bethel Literary and Historical Association. Avoiding all sensationalism, he gave special attention to the necessity for qualified teachers in the practical courses of creation of the officials intrusted with the management of the schools and the hearty support of the patrons whose children are being trained for the duties of life.
The conceived case of A. P. Moore and Sister Sean Grace, from the First District of South Carolina, will be the only matter before the committee on questions of the House, in which the
Nugo is generally interviewed. Although Mr. Prilman's complaint of being束 by fraud is sustained by the argument kind of testimony, there in little hope of him being accused, as an attempt to pawn his case would involve the entire question of the disinclining 'continuity' of the party, which the amount of the party are not in a frame of mind to assume just now.
Messra, Andrew Hogan and Luke D. Beat, students of the theological department of Howard University, have been duly ordained as members of the Baptist ministry, after a rigid examination by a council composed of representatives of twenty-two Baptist churches of the District. Rev. W. D. Jarvis, president of the Baptist Ministerial Alliance of the District of Columbia, called the council under Rev. E. P. Cunningham the moderator, and Rev. J. Loving kept the records. Rev. W. D. Jarvis was the catechizer and Rev. M. W. D. Norman presented the charge of ordination. The exercises were held at the Metropolitan Baptist church.
VIRGINIA ELKA
Opinions of George B. King Bergarding
Nik. Akbar.
NORBOLL, Nov. 12—Being an Elk myself, I am, of course, particularly interested in the vital questions that affect every Afro-American Elk in this country, and as such I am writing this article, and not as a correspondent of TREK ACK.
I conscientiously believe that a remedy has been prescribed by conservative, intelligent and worthy men, who make up the personnel of the opposing faction who see the urgent necessity of protecting every Afro-American Elk, if it takes every dollar and the unification of the two bodies. The rights of the people matter whether he is in the States of New York or Georgia. No one man can, without the power of the sovereign body, which is the Grand Lodge, change the professions or any part of the major part of the Grand Lodge after the same has been adopted. Whenever the head of any organization or any form of government attempts to override his authority, he is insuring and abridging the confidence and liberties of those he is supposed to serve. Hence, it is my conviction that Dr. W. E. Atkins and his large number of friends from the Elk lakes to the Gulf, are right.

A Beautiful Hair Dressing and Tonic for the Hair!
I have used your Kinkine for the past year and my hair is growing very fast. 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. And enables me to do it in any of the many styles that I use on the stage. It does all you claim for it, and I would not be without it. You're sincerely, MME, ROBINSON:
Kinkine Hair Dressing is a delightful perfumed tonic prepared largely, for the use of colored people, is guaranteed to be absolutely safe and harmless. It makes harsh, stubborn, kinky, curly hair soft, silky and glossy, enables you to comb it with ease and to dress it in any style that you may wish.

ANNIE BARRIER WILLIAMS
Mr. John L. Waters is a well-known deacon of Mt. Olivet Baptist church, Manhattan. He has gained many friends by his seal for Christian work. But now the dear deacon is in difficulty. The historian would say, to begin at the beginning, the deacon must imagine he is living in Utah among the Mormon for a few years, but he fully married to Alice Reddie, of Baltimore, in 1879. This lady is still living. By this first wife he had one child, Alexander.
In 1887, he was again married, this time to Laura Frances Hunnicut. But was the deacon divorced? He stated to the authorities at Providence, where the marriage occurred, that both he and she were divorced from their first partners. This, however, is false. An investigator has personally seen and talked with the first wife in a certain town in Virginia during the month of November. She stated that she married John L. Waters, of Baltimore, Md., in 1879; and that Alexander Waters is her son, although it is believed otherwise. After marriage she suffered ill-treatment at the hands of John L. Waters. He would not give her sufficient food or clothing, and he gave most of his time and attention to other women. John L. Waters deserted her while she very sick in Baltimore, and her mother, now dead, came to Baltimore and took her home to Virginia. Previous to her mother's taking her home, she received many letters from John L. Waters, demanding that the boy, Alexander, be given over to his care; and that he, John L. Waters, came from New York city to Baltimore in about 1887 and took the boy away to New York city and she has not seen the boy since that time.
The investigator also personally inspected the marriage license and in it John L. Waters declares: he was a divorced person at the time of the second marriage. But now the present wife declared at the time of her marriage to Waters that her name was Hunnicut, which is also her father's name. Yet she claimed to have been married and divorced.
The investigator also has personally and carefully inspected the county and city divorce records of New York, Baltimore and Providence, as these are the only places of which they are bona-fide residents, and unimpeachable documentary evidence is in hand that Waters is divorced man. The unadjusted facts, and evidence to substantiate the same can be produced to satisfy persons of ordinary intelligence. This same deacon has been an advocate of righteousness and purity and a decretor of filth and adultery. This investigation was made without any feelings of partiality and by a disinterested party. And at the time of making the investigation, the investigator was willing and anxious at all collect evidence at John L. Waters but was unable to find any. If John L. Waters can deny any part of the above statements, or if there is any just cause for a reasonable doubt, we shall be very pleased to hear from him through these columns.

Blanked Opinions from Some Southern White Newspaper
From The Literary Digest.
It is just such incidents as these which keep the flames of dissension and evasion alight and increase the difficulty of finding a gravest problem that ever confronted a proud, cultured and intelligent people, says the Atlanta Journal, referring to the fact that Bishop Henry C. Dutton of New York, at the close of the recent church congress in Richmond, played the host to Bishop Ferguson, a Negro missionary bishop to South Africa. "There would naturally be a disposition on the part of the newspapers of the South to overlook the faux bishop in his dune socially, while the New York prelate and his wife were themselves enjoying the hospitality of the people of Richmond," continues the Journal, "were it not that the blunder appears to have been so deliberate, and there seems to be so little regret on the part of the offender." We are told further that it "looked very much like an emotional affront to the people of the South," and that the incident the more to regret is that it could not attract attention on two hemiplegia and to precipitate a controversy which certainly will contribute nothing to the cause of piety and religious fellowship." To quote further from the same source.
"There is something in the sacred Scripture to the effect that those who minister in the temples should take heed that they give no offense, so the distinguished prelate, visiting in the South, was under special obligation to connect himself in such a manner that he would not offend the sensibilities, the prejudices, if you prefer, of the people whose hospitality he was paying. He would give recourse to the advice of St Ambrose, presuming that he is familiar with the teachings of the fathers, to the effect that when one is in Milan one may do as the Milanese do, but when one is in Rome one must do as the Romans do.
"In Richmond, Va, the former capital of the Southern Confederacy, it is not customary to receive Negroes on a plane of social equality. The fact that the guest happens to be a bishop of Virca did not alter the situation. he had been a Kafka teacher he would have been a fierce and practical barrier of race was there, and the people of Richmond did not ask or need the revolutionary precedents from the bishop of New York."
The fiery element of the Southern press has been stimulated by the incident to exploit in a most violent way the race issue, while the more conservative papers deplore this very result. To quote an example: "Same time the Chattanooga Times and the Charlotte (N.C.) Observer. "With its usual admirable good sense and honesty, the Charlotte Observer deprecates the aerimony with which certain Southern newspapers have attacked Bishop Potter, of New York, for entertaining a colored bishop at the center of the race. The Oceans thinks that Bishop Potter evidently looked upon the act as official rather than personal, and merely failed to see why one prince of a church should not offer another some slight en-

tertainment without balking at racial distinction." Our contemporary has hit the right explanation. * * * *
"The fault we find is that he has stirred up the race issue. Of course, Bishop Porter did not intend that, but that he did." Bishop Nelson, of Georgia, has issued the following statement, which sounds much like an apology for Bishop Potter's action:
"The incident, to say the least, was an unfortunate one. My own ideas on such subjects are different from Bishop Potter's may act, but Bishop Potter has certainly taken his own all the missionary bishops, and I assume that the thought it discounted to except the Negro bishop from South Africa. That he miscalculated the effect of having a Negro bishop at his house is certain, but I am equally certain he had no intention to wound Southern people who make an attack on their dearest sentiments.
"The New York Ace, an Afro-American paper, has this to say:
"By meeting out an ordinary courtesy to an Afro-American bishop it seems that Bishop Potter, of New York, has brought down upon his head the conspiracy of the famed group of Virginia. We wonder how long it will take the white people of Virginia to learn that they are one hundred years behind the times and that nobody cares a snap, aside from themselves, about the individual acts and private doings of public men. Bishop Potter had a be a use for which he paid his cash. The Afro-American people will honor him for his courage and for his liberality."

GEORGIA PHYSICIANS MEET
Tuberculosis was Discensed at Conven-
tion Held in Macon.
MAYO, Ga., November 4.—The medical treatment of tuberculosis, outdoor treatment, the sweeping of houses and railway cars while occupied by persons, the acute stages of the disease, and the general apprehension of consumption among the Negroes, proved the ideas that brought forth earnest consideration and long discussions at the suburbicula congress, held by the black ace Central City park.
The leading Negro physicians of the State were in attendance, and the meetings in the prison of the negroes which put the rate as far as medical skill is concerned, to working out the best methods of preventing the rapidly increasing disease in the South. Many Negro physicians were in attendance, some representing other States than Georgia.
Negresa Go to California
AMERICANS, Ga., Colored Republicans of Americans recently issued thousands of circular letters to Negroes of the Third Congressional district calling upon them to register and qualify to vote unanimously against proposed disfranchisement. The letter deprecated the emigration movement, which is carrying classes from southwestern Georgia to California; and calls upon them to continue in Georgia and assist in its developments.
Hundreds of Negroes have disposed of their property there and departed already, while hundreds are preparing to do likewise. Their circular letter was temperate and is being circulated broadcast.

A Remarkable View of the Incident for a Southern Newspaper.
From The Richmond News-Leader.
Let Southern people and newspapers refrain carefully from making themselves ridiculous by throwing fits over the fact that Bishop Potter, of New York, yesterday had Bishop Fergusson, a Negro from the west coast of Africa, to lunchon with him. All of us in this part of the country rose up in protest when the story came that President Roosevelt had invited Booker Washington to his table. That, however, is a different case. The President is supposed to be the representative of the people of the whole country and the White House is a public building, inasmuch as it was maintained by the entire country. Therefore the representative of the people and occupying a house belonging to the people, is required to respect public sentiment and feeling in his conduct while holding office and occupying a building owned by these United States. Bishop Potter is a gentleman living in his own home. He has a right to do as he pleases, to select his own guests without criticism.
The attitude and behavior of the white man who tries to live up to the grand old name of gentleman toward the Negro who is trying to do the same thing is embarrassing always and continually presents delicate questions of deportment, etiquette and ethics. The requirements of hospitality and courtesy, respect for character and, sometimes, for position, clash harshly with the color line which enmits both body and sound judgment, feel bound to draw. These are matters in which general rules and regulations are impossible and in which each man must determine for himself his own action, frequently on the spur of the moment.
If the miserable race problem was not so fearful and constantly present, as it is, it would be impertinent to discuss in a newspaper the actions of a gentleman under his own too and in the privacy of a house which under the law and by his own accord has been occupied castle, therefore here. The story of Bishop Potters reception of Bishop Ferguson, however, has been heralded and has become a legitimate and necessary subject for discussion. From our standpoint we have no censure. We are convinced that no offense to racial prejudices was intended. Bishop Ferguson is a man of clean life and high character, an important official of his church, doing what is where work is needed. Bishop Potter doubtless wishes to honor the office and the work and the man. He is not a Southerner and the race question does not press upon him as it does upon us here. The best position for us in the South to take is to regard the incident as an incident and unusual and the result of somewhat peculiar conditions and point it out of our minds as quickly as possible to recognize sequences of existing conditions. It is not a precedent or a step toward social equality.
We happen to know that Bishop Ferguson came here from Liberia, in which country he is a pre-eminent social and religious factor, believing that his reception would be hostile and that he would be subjected to many humiliations, in objection to his sense of duty to his church and his work. It is gratifying to know that he was pleasantly disappointed. He found himself among a gathering of American gentlemen and has been met with kindness and courtesy everywhere and at every turn by the Virginia people as well as his fellowmen. I Bishop Potter saw fit to step little beyond which we of the South, regard as possible, into intercourse with colored people, it is his affair and none of ours. And the less we say about it the better.

It was agreed that such expression was the chief truly worthy of its name. Mr. Thomas' treatment of self-preservation was decidedly novel, and full of matter for collection. He showed how, at this period of human development, the primacy of self-preservation was as invalid as the primacy of breathing and other physiological functions of sensation of human life. At the close of this remark the speaker received much credit for his contribution to the pleasures of the opening. After the regular business was transacted a very tastful repose was served. The club will be entertained by Mr. Frames at SDS Centre, and the Romy the home of Mr. Hairi on Saturday evening. November 21.

PENNSYLVIA, Nov. 11.—The Philadelphia Association for the Protection of Colored Women will aid in the solution of the mistress and maid question by weekly lectures which will tend to promote domestic harmony between the occupants of parlor and kitchen. The first of these meetings was delivered on last Thursday evening at their headquarters, 1600 Catherine street. Mrs. S. W. Layton, secretary of the association, presided. Both sides of the question was impartially considered, and it is the expectation that means will be formed to establish an era of better feel, between women and her help." Specifically directed at the wrangles of the servants, a practical method of procuring co-operation between employer and employee will be sought. Mrs. Layton then announced that meetings will be held every Thursday night. At each meeting a different phase, of the complex problem will be discussed. Every part of the question will be thoroughly threshed out before it is dropped.
Noted social workers have been scheduled to speak before the association. It is planned to have as many women and Afro-American servants present as can be induced to attend. Addresses will be made at the association headquarters by Dr. Charlotte Abbey, Miss Frances Bartholowne, Councilman Richard A. Cooper and Mrs. W. F. Hamilton.
Mr. Harry Pringle Ford, an elder in the Holland Memorial Presbyterian church, is being worshipped as a deity—or rather, his photograph—is being worshipped to-day by thousands of stalwart, ebony-skinned natives in Mattabele, South Africa. He won this distinction by philanthropy. Fourteen years ago he befriended a poor Zulu boy, whom he came to this country to secure an education, and that was enticed to Chicago, and used as an attraction on the Midway, at the World's Fair. He not proving profitable as a "money getter" his manager abandoned him, and it was Mr. Ford who rescued him, from dire poverty.
The friendless boy, whose name was Hosana Coronto, turned out to be the son of Coronto, a cruel monarch in the Zulu country, who has more than twenty wives, and whose authority has no restrictions. Men are killed in Zululand at a nod of the potentate's head. Through Mr. Ford's generosity he was sent back to his native country, who paid his expenses and gave him a photograph of himself. Coronto returned last week, and immediately proceeded to the Board of Publication in the Witheroon Building, with which Mr. Ford
my arms, much to the surprise of art. Ford, who had nearly forgotten the incident. Looking at him intently he recognized his protege who had been greeting them followed, which touched a tender spot in the heart of Coronio; after wiping a tear from his eye, he said:
"Do you remember that picture you gave me? Well, my father, the king, fell in love with it. Of course, it was your goodness to his son that impressed him. He has put it on a throne in our largest hut, which my people use as a temple, and has commanded his people to worship it. He told them it was an American god who had saved his son's life. And everybody worships it. No one dares to disobey my father, for he would instantly kill them." Mr. Ford was duly impressed, and asked him how he was getting along. He said: "I have been trying to teach his people manners, and started a school for the purpose. But the work was slow. The girls insisted on attending without clothing in warm weather. However, they soon learned, and I soon found that they knew as much as the teacher. That I have come to America obtain an education; after which I will go back to Zulukland and teach my people." Asked where he would go, he said he had often heard of the great Booker T. Washington, he thought he would go to Tuskegee. Coronto will leave this week.
Tuberculosis formed a topic for discussion last Sunday by James McGirt, A. B., Ph. D., publisher of McGirt's Magazine, at the Zion African Methodist Episcopal church, at 21st and Tasker streets, under the auspices of the Afro-American Educational Bureau, of which he is founder and president, Mr. McGirt emphatically states that tuberculosis is cutting great inroads among Afro-Americans of this country, one-seventh of the average 150,000 annual deaths being attributed to the white plague.

TUSKEGEE, Ala., November 11—Dave Crawford, a Negro, last night went to the house of M. S. Russell, pulled off his shoes and went on top of the house to make an entrance by going down the chimney. He got wedged about half way down and there he had to remain until this morning, when Russell went to make a fire. When the fire began to burn Dave began to yell. It took some time to locate him, and by the time Russell got assistance, toore down the chimney and liberated Dave he was burned from head to foot.
Wine Fourth Place
SPRINGFIELD, O. November 11.—In a declaration contest held under the auspices of the literary society of Wittenberg school, Springfield, Ohio, Samuel Huffman, the only colored student in the college, captured fourth place. His section, "An Episode of the American solution," was filled with many charm.
Jurvenius, Cyr, Me, Nov. 11—Parmenot me to encumber upon your space this once more, and I shall not take the sage privilege again soon. But in view of the fact that Dr. Mills has made his letter in your paper of November 7 a personal one to me and about me, impugning my motives and making threats of a personal nature, I am constrained to answer in a few words.
Bast in the outset allow me to say that I shall not stoop to the same style of diction he employs. "Vituperation and billingagate never made argument nor convinced anyone, neither will it do so now. While presumably addressing his letter to the editor, he turns in the body of the letter, "You are the second person, 'you', and charges me with all manner of evils. I have nothing to apologize for in my attitude in this matter, either now or in the past. Dr. Mills recites the truth when he says I was at Columbus and that I was a worker there. I was made editor of the newly created 'Elks' Journal." and as such officer I set myself to a calm concluding up to and prior to the separation of the order. In the first issue of that paper, which, I shall be glad for anybody to see, I wrote among other things;
"We do not impugn the motives of those who led in this revolt. But in the light of newspaper paragraphs and in view of the trivial circumstance (the changing of the place of meeting) which is so fraught with results, it does now seem strange if there is not something hidden away in the closets that is not known to the public." And here in November, 1907, I reiterate that the character in the place of meeting was not solely responsible for the order; there was something hidden away from the public, and I was one of the public. I did not know, and hundreds of others did not know, of the methods which Mr. Howard and some of his chief lieutenants had been using in the order and which had gone on until these men of the East greed tired of enduring their and set adrift for themselves. When I found those things out, when I found that I had been made to subserve the ends and aims of others, I cut myself away from them and together with them, and there in Columbus, joined forces with those whose eyes had been opened before mine. I have no apology to make for that act or for any others, nor do I apologize for or retract what I have written either at that time or now.
I endeavored through the columns of the Journal as long as I remained at its head to get at the facts, and wrote from those facts as I obtained them. When I found out that what I had learned would justify me in supporting Mr. Howard no longer. I resigned my position under him both as a District Deputy and as editor and left his ranks. If it is inconsistency to stop and retrace one's steps when he finds he has started wrong, and Dr. Mills says himself that I "only started," then let me be inconsistent always.
If anyone can find in my letter as published in The Age the statement that Dr. Atkinson won a suit over Mr. Howard for $20,000, I will pay a reward for the same. As President Roosevelt would say: "The gentleman made a deliberate misstatement which might be characterized by a shorter word." The fact is this: Dr. Mills said in his first letter, "We have never resorted to the courts nor will we ever do so to protect ourselves," together with some more bombast. I cited the instance "in a suit instituted by B. F. Howard against Dr. V. E. Atkinson all others in Virgina to badly beaten that he had to withdraw the case before trial." Now he says in his last letter: "If I advised Mr. Howard to withdraw from the courts, in this State," I think people generally can see the contradiction—or shorter word—involved in these two statements.
I think that those who read my letter some time ago and that of Grand Secretary Holmes recently will some to the conclusion that there was something wrong, something hidden away, and it was only a mater of time before a split would have to come. When the public generally and the order at large learns the true history of those days and years present the Brooklyn and Columbus invasions, the evidence in favor of the action of the Brooklyn men will stop forever this ready flow of cheap oratory and flowery rhetoric.
Three months after the Columbus meeting my lodge and many others left Mr. Howard. We have been away ever since and we have been satisfied. If the course of the other wing which we left is not more marked by tyranny, and gag rule, as your correspondent states, times have certainly changed. And they changed because of the fright that this newer wing has given in its rapid and miraculous growth. Until the order is thoroughly purged of the autocracy which has marked it hitherto and has settled down to the democracy which belongs to it, there will not and can never be union. But when scheming politicians and men who desire to use it for other than its legitimate purposes are eliminated from the forefront and control, there will be no need of arbitrary rule. The committee will rise its might and demand union. If there is some one on the Unification Committee to whom Dr. Mills objects that objection need not stand in the committee's way. The gentleman to whom he refers was one of the original five who incorporated this order and has labored long for its success and upbuilding. He will do the same here we all know.
I am going to let Mr. Preston Moore answer this gentleman since he will believe him. Under date of October 13 Mr. Moore writes me: "The reference of Dr. Mills to my notes relative to the Arbiteration Committee I took from my notes to Mr. Moore, and the fault of my notes and not of the heart." Without appealing to the galleries with far-fetched figures of boundless oceans, beautiful ships and cloudless skies, allow me to thank you for your indulgence as so great a length to tell my good friend, Dr. Mills, that neither Virginia nor Kentucky contain all that is worth while in Elkdom, and can be found in his later article he has made a deliberate misstatement—or perhaps a shorter word.

E. connection, was received two weeks ago into the North Carolina conference of the North Carolina Mount Airy, N.C. by Bishop Spellmeyer, presiding. North Carolina is the home of Rev. and Mrs. Davis. Dr. I. N. Porter performed an operation four weeks ago on Mrs. William Walley, of 154 Dixwell avenue, for a tumor of the left shoulder. The operation was successful. Miss Arsene E.

Mr. and Mrs. John Norcom, of 175 Goffe street, have returned home after a pleasant visit of four weeks with his brother in Norfolk, Va. and'friends in North Carolina.
William Mooney, an Irishman, was deficited in his scheme of begging by the alertness of Special Policeman Henry W. Williams. Mooney was passing as a one-armed man when arrested by Officer Williams. On his pilgrimage he had gone to the tenement flat at No. 210 Ashnun street, where Special Officer Williams lives, and was kicking on the door, at the same time demanding money, when Officer Williams arrested and remanded him.

LYNCHED AT THE COURT HOUSE.
Taken by Meb from Jail—Militia Docs
No food.
CAMERON, Texas, November 4.—Following his indictment to-day by the grand jury on a charge of attempted criminal assault, Alex Johnson, a Negro, was taken from the jail here by a mob of 500 men and hanged to a trg in the court house yard. The officers and influential citizens pleaded with the mob to allow the law to take its course, but their efforts were without effect, and the doors of the jail building were battered down, the Negro secured and lynched. The town is quiet this evening. The governor ordered out the militia, but not in time to save the Negro.
South Carolina's Killing Record.
(From the Newberry Record.) The number of homicides in this State is alarming. If this crime is sharply among the worse element, but it is not by any means confined to them. At any rate, the better element will share in the responsibility for this state of affairs if they do not take more active and surer methods, through the courts and otherwise, to check this flood of crime. Just think of the number of people in the four in nine weeks. We venture to say there is not a country on the face of the earth, civilized or uncivilized, that can equal that record. It is intolerable.
