Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society Have a Representative Gathering
Annual Sermon Preached by Dr. McMullen—Stole as Gift for Vicar of St. Cyprian's Church—Plans for Gospel Tent Work—Social News of the Work
News of the Week.
The bright feature of the services at Mother Zion Church last Sunday was the missionary mass meeting conducted by the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society. Solomon has there ever been a more representative array of missionary workers than those who greeted that appreciative audience. The address of Mrs. Hervy was interesting, entertaining and instructive and made a deep impression on her features. Mrs. Hervy is a white woman of French origin and a worker in the work of coordinating the duties as are common to a great city like New York, and her accounting of some of her experiences excited the Rev. interest. Miss Mary E. Sanghee of Brooklyn made an interesting talk on missions, Mrs. B. de Tosseau whose activity as a public speaker is well known, fully sustained her reputation as such. The singer Miss Estella Hines of Brooklyn, Thomas charmed her hearts. There was a sweeter singer on the American stage than Mrs. Thomas, and if she made that her profession she would soon be at the top. Miss Estella Shepard, the accomplished organist of Bethel, played a solo and Moslames Sarah M. C. Jackson and Berthea Reynolds a dance Mrs. Waiters, who was presiding, made a talk inviting the friends to her interest in the missionary work given in the interest of the need of the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society.
The incumbent wished to afford the attendance at the morning service, besides the present president, a good son from the test. Tomlinson, a devout man, and one of his devoted God with all his house, was the president of the aminitorium of the Salomonian Protective Union, No. 2, and their invited guests, among whom were the principal officers and leading members of the older organization of the same name and a large representation of the Ladies Protective Union, Nos. 1, 5, and 6, with their Juveniles. The test was a work of education, a work was punctual with honesty advice and bristled with nuggets of gold dug up out of the richness of the test selected. The showing made by the organization was the best made in its history.
Bethrl Church.
Services at Bethel Church were conducted Sunday by the pastor, R. C. Kanson. He preached at Seth the morning and evening services, chantment and impromptu sermons. The offerings, during the day were large. Sunday School was characterized by a large attendance. Devotionals were held in the work in all departments is processing in a most harmonious way. Terry, Not of the week of April 11 will contain a special article about the 50th anniversary of the church. The Mite Missionary Society hold an interesting meeting Sunday afternoon at the church. Wednesday evening the pastor and wife hold a reception at the parasomie for members of the church who are assisting in the preparations for the coming anniversary.
St. Cypriann's Chapel.
Rev. G. A. McGinty, a mission of Arkansas, presided at St. Cyprus' chapel Sunday morning to an economically large congregation. The services were impressive and appropriate to the occasion of the year. At the evening service, Rev. W. B. Howard of St. John's Anglican Church presided over the Mass. The congregation for the day was filled. At the children's serving class which held Saturday information, Rev. Howard conducted a service and pray. He attained an interesting talk. The孝慈堂 class of the Girls' Family Society has made a very beautiful presentation for the year. Rev. Daniels of St. St. Philips' Church presided at St. Cyprus' Friday last. It is very enjoyable. Easter Sunday will be held in the newly compiled chapel. Work on the chapel is being taught. On Palm Sunday Rev. R. B. Kirby of the City Mission Society will be the presider.
St. James' Church.
Mr. C. Le Roy Huber returned to St. Petersburg, Church Sunday morning and gave a most elegant and jovial session. He returned from a week's work in Philadelphia, where he has been associated with Emanuel J. Wilber Chapman and T. other co-workers who are conducting a revival in 45 district. It is the largest revival that has ever been attempted in an American city and endeavor work among all tribes. The most inventive good has already been accomplished, 25,000 persons attended the opening meeting, and the interest and attendance is increasing daily. Mr. Huber is stationed at 17th and Fitzwater streets, where his services are so largely attended all cannot be accommodated. The annual corporate congregational meeting of St. James was held Wednesday at which time two officers and two demons were treated. Terry Willis will attend in lieu of John A. Smith Day School and Christian Endeavor were largely attended. Plans for Gospel tent work in New York city the coming summer are already under way. Rev. Arthur J. Smith will succeed to Rev. James R. Smith as superintendent of the work. This, the fourth summer campaign, will be on the same extensive scale as preceding summer, and there will be perhaps more tours than before. Open meetings will be held as usual, with children and servants up to work in children and working men. Rev. C. Le Roy Huber will, as before, have charm of the work among the colored troops of George New York.

Political Event
One easily begins to feel in the State office we are approaching the important event in national politics. The college president of this city were shown in statistical last week by the announcement that the "Columbian Reporter" magazine, in this city and vicinity, announced an enlistment of Secretary Taft for President. It is about the first time an unidentified attention on Presidential positions has made. The surprise was due to the fact that it was generally thought that these enlistments were waging war against the United States. The good opinion evidently has a keen air for the ruinning of a bad wagon.
Another interesting coincidence of recent events politically was the naming of Col. John R. Marshall, of the Soho Illinois Regiment, as an alternate delegate at large to the National Republican Convention. And the question of the resolution in the State Republican Convention, held in Springfield this week, strongly favoring the enactment of the 11th Amendment to the United States Constitution. It surely need be said that there is no expectation of a similar resolution being passed by the Democratic State Convention, soon to follow.
M. A. Majors, of this city, has been selected by the Cooperate Publishing Co. as managing editor of that paper.
The Executive Committee of the State
Federation of Women's Clubs held an important meeting at Springfield, the State Capitol, during the week. Aside from discussing plans for the development of State club work, preparations were made to create an interest in the State Federation in the coming Summer. Mrs. L. Davis, the most prominent club woman of this State and Mrs. Anna Peyton, the president of the State Federation, were in attendance from this city. FANNIE RAGGER WILLIAMS.

Boston, April 11—In the memory of the oldest inhabitants Boston Afro-American on the eye of a national election have never been so stirred up as they have this past nightlight prior to the choosing of the delegates to the National Republican Convention. Mass meetings thick and fast have been holding exited sway; conferences between and within the various busy little groups have almost been a part of the order of the day while individuals large and small, wise and otherwise have plunged headlong in the midfee of a blind stampede. At this time when firefighted plans of action would seem imperative all contingencies should be scrutinized and all consequences should be carefully calculated, many of Boston colored men of seasured experience and with reputations for solar judgment and stance season have given themselves, over to the local factions of disorder and to the local policies of an infiltrative opposition. The stance colored men have thus bent and made assists to a disputable attack by disposable colored men on other reputable colored men.

A challenge was read last Sunday from three Harvard students, Messrs F. Q. Morton, W. O. Tyler and Hugh E. Macbeth, who advocated in their recent addresses at St. Mark's Literary, constructive effort in the South and North and the propagation of a whole community of the senses. They were provoled in this challenge by the stout consistent opposition to old Harvard grad. Mr. Clement G. Morgan, 300, realized that a joint debate on the issues was the only fair and satisfactory way to arrive at the merits of the question. This debate would prove enlightening as well operating and is hoped that the old grads will condescend to cross awards with their younger and ambitions brethren.

It is, therefore, pleasing to note the good judgment and lack of sensation displayed by the colored politicians of Cambridge. At a crowded convention of citizens in Middlesex county gathered last November, Mr. Cambridge, a resident of Middlesex county, plodged themselves to work for an uninstructed delegation to the convention. With an maturity and great enthusiasm the candidate of Deacon Minor F. Hamlin, for alternate delegate at large, Massachusetts, was endorsed. Mr. Hamlin, an uncle and an uncle man of influence all over this country is respected as a real political force in his city. His influence among his people is recognized and at the same time feared, he is always listened to in the party councils of his home city because of his unassigned judgment and practical competence. And his rise, Mr. Hamlin and his followers are for the nomination of the Republican Convention.

"Wreath on Peace and War" was the subject of a thoughtful and entertaining address by Mr. Matty C. Ogledby at St Mark's. Literary last Sunday afternoon. Taken the position that woman is at the backs of the social ladder and that she has ever been a brave barometer and vital factor of a woman's progress, the speaker brought forth and closely developed her point that especial stress in the future must be laid on the evolution of the educated woman.

A SUCCESSFUL MANUFACTURER.
The Haynes Ramer Strop Company
Opens a New Place on Broadway.
When a company grows from a small workshop in a diary basement, to a manufacturing plant requiring a large number of skilled workers, and from an output of a few ransom stamps a day to a volume of a thousand a day, such a problem has worked out the problem, has worked out the policies, has employed the methods that make for success. Can these methods be reduced to certain factors which may be called the basis of manufacturing success, the primary element of a profitable business? Just as the answer deprives the elements composing the alloys, so analysis can determine the factors soons and material, that compound success.
Organization and exactness of methods have contributed to lift business to the plane of science. Present-day business system has established that every cause has it immutable effect; that every result is rooted logically in its certain cause. Answer to these questions, therefore, lies in the analytical study of a typical business that has attained well-grounded success, and, as every success variably has behind it one premonitor human responsibility, we compilate here by calling the attention of our many readers to this razor strop genius. Mr. H. C. Haynes, who for many years was at the head of the H. C. Haynes Razor Strop Company, of Chicago. Mr. Haynes disposed of his Chicago business January 15, 1907.
H. C. MA
Coming to New York, which he realized was a larger market for his product, he at once organized a company known as the New York Hazor Strop Company, of which he is president and treasurer. It is estimated that the company alone done more than $15,000 worth of business during the past year.
Mr. Haynes, who has become one of the foremost factors in the razor strop world, began his business career in Chicago about 12 years ago. His practical knowledge of what process to carry his strops through, and the kind of leather which would yield the best results soon gave his strops advantage over his competitors. Mr. Haynes has always been a leader in the field and his work. He has used economy in the problem of production, aiming always to reduce waste of material and labor to the minimum.
At the outset he made himself a master of detail. Adherence to this course constantly has allowed the instituting of economies and the securing of greater results. His rule of economy has kept the working force up to the chalkline to the task. His experience in the effort has yielded full results. The new establishment, which opens at 325 Broadway, will be known as The Haynes Haze Strop Company and will be devoted exclusively to the mail order business, making a specialty of the "Superior" brand, which is Mr. Haynes latest creation in strop making. This has been a major accomplishment for the most practical razor strop ever invented. The leading New York department stores have been running a special sale on the "Superior" brand for the past two months and it has not with considerable favor.
Mr. Haynes has the distinction of making the strop used by Francis Haby, who is the private barber to the Emperor of Germany. Many other motifs of Europe and America also use his strop. All of them are owned by Mr. Haynes, great strop will please note his advertisement, which will appear in our next issue.

MR. EDWARDS HONORED.
Service by Colored Employees.
WASHINGTON, April 1. One of the most popular officials ever connected with the Treasury Department was Mr. J. M. Edwards, who resigned the post of Assistant Secretary of that department last week, and a responsible work in the world of finance in New York City. In testimony of the service in which he is held by the colored clocks, messengers and laborers of the Treasury Department, a number or more of them assembled at Mr. Edwards' residence on the 17th and presented with him with a gift of silver services. The name of each door, neatly enraved on perchment, with a beautifully-worded inscription, testifying their confidence and esteem, accompanied the magnificent gift. In a highly engaging manner and in a manner that was both elegant and dazzling, clerk to the Hon. George W. Curtelson, Secretary of the Treasury, crowned the ogression with a fitting cloak, when he stepped forward and delivered the presentation speech. It was an historical effort of rare brilliance and a magnificent achievement earned for him an enviable reputation as an acclaimed ecologist.

Saturday was a never-to-be-forgetten day in the history of the New York curb. It was the day when the much advertised and widely heralded Yukon Gold shares were placed on the market. Never was the introduction of a new stock swaited with such intensity of interest. Thousands of operators were present to witness the opening of the market and it goes without saying that they saw the greatest show on earth, for they saw 500,000 new brokers wildly struggle for more than two hours with each other in their efforts to execute orders in Yukon Gold. A smash of polios were present to preserve "order" but they none learned that pandemonium, was the "order" of the day, as they bear a hasty retreat. To the men in the trading, the brokers must have seized like bedlamites rather than the shred, clever men that they are, for despite crushed hats, torn coats, scratched faces and aching feet they furiously grappled with each other from ten minutes before ten till a few minutes past twelve. From a howling mob. "The time that they were a good-natured mob, but they were more the less savagely cornered in their effort to buy and sell Yukon Gold.
What is this Yukon Gold which created such a future?
The public does not know beyond what has been touched by the hotel Boston operator who was hired to dismose of the stock. He says that the Tukun Gold Corp. $120,000 shares of its value $25,000 owned by the Guzeeheim Exploration Company, and further that of the many companies owned by the Guzeeheim interests including American Smotting Federal Mining and Smotting, and National Lead the street and choice in industry. I have considered to their Tukun Gold. This great investment opportunity is offered the public by a man who less than four months ago said, I have devoted three and a half years of my time and some millions of my fortune to my business. Beginning January 1 I shall allow the public to do its own reforming and I shall devote my time and capital exclusively to my own business of stock trading" in Well and State streets—particularly in Well street—for the purpose of committing millions. I have no interest in human laws and as immutable "the devil take the hindmost one."
In the light of the above declaration of the Boston operator is it a violent inference that the public is not being given "the choice investment of the entire (Gurgenheim) group" of mining properties? I think not. A little figurine will make clear my meaning.
Fukun Gold isCIALized at $17,500.000 divided into $50,000 shares of $50 each which is $75.00 as dividing $17.500 value of $100. Now these shares from $550 to $750 for this shares are in the same boat as though he had paid from $110 to $150 for $100 shares. Sever hundred thousand of these $150 shares sold at an average of $550.
I'm not that delinquent "Sair Shrimps" from the public at from 10 to 50 per cent above the par value of a stock the merits of which have yet to be demonstrated. No wonder the shrimp operator through whose hands their millions amount referred to that same public as "relatine-minded shrimps." Shrimps are slow to think if they think at all and it would seem that in this Yukon Gold affair the public acted the part of shrimps for on the same day that they paid from 10 to 50 per cent, above par for Yukon Gold Amal-maized Copper sold for 20 or 40 per cent above par American Smelting United States Steel Professional sold for 90 or 1 per cent below par Union Pacific R R sold for 125 or 25 per cent above par. New York New Haven & Hartford R R sold for 155 or 35 per cent above par. Each of the above stocks generally the salted stocks is of known quality paying whole dividends ranging from four to 10 per cent with a turn of 10 per cent and with the certain to sell much higher than the present stock.
In the mentioning what will be the course of Yukon Gold? Will it stay or plunge? Will it eventually advance or will it still stagnate? While no one can answer with ambiguity and confusion, there is an illusion about Yukon Gold that is not easily understood. In the case of Yukon Gold is a conglomeration and when the firm prints an ad which it will consider a rank simulation at that. Quarterly Why do thousands of people put millions of dollars into a scheme like Yukon Gold in which the element of risk is so small to the nature of proportion of累积ized money? Is it because of an inherent instinct to gamble or is it true? Hermann said, we like to be humbled? Ramanathan has been able to believe that the man whom he thinks is the king is taking bricks to the house. Last year a gold brick or bronze be handed out, let such propositions as Yukon Gold severely alone. - Robert W. Taylor.

THE NEW YORK AGE; THURSDAY, APRIL 2, 1908
New Haven, March 8.—The obsequies of the late letter carrier, J. Adolphus Fuller (took place Tuesday afternoon, March 24, from the home of his sister, Mrs. Emma Benton, 331 Orchard street, Rev. Henry O. Bowles, rector of St. Luke's, M. E. Church, in conjunction with Rev. Dr. Yearwood, of Bethel A. M. E. Church, performed the solemn rite. The choir of St. Luke's Church rendered the music. An exegete in laying an angelic memorial was assembled at the house to view and pay the final tribute to deceased. East Rock Lodge, No. 14, Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, of which the deceased was the exalted ruler, were present in a body, and the solemn sight engaged the attention of the people from the house to the house to the house. Letter carriers, Peter Cline, Joseph R. Fisher, W. H. Hickman, Louin A. Fenderson; Elks, Fred Ruby, Samuel Gardner, Charles H. Keefe. The mute, soral tributes were beautiful. Among the set pieces were a clock from the Elks' conquest of illinois; a pillow from Mr. and Mrs. Henry; a pillow from Mr. and Mrs. Frontis Williams; spray of illies from Miss Joanie Smith, of New Jersey; spray of sweet peas from Mrs. Elliot Dixon and family; pillow of rest from his brothers and sisters; from the letter carriers, a piece representing a letter and stamp, wealth of corn and cotton; patrons from Mr. and Mrs. Metton. The body was entombed in the Evergreen Cemeteries.
As a result of the union services of the Congregational. Zion, Bethel and the Immanuel Baptist Churchhes the revival meetings have become most interesting and important. At the Dixwell Avenue Congregational Church, Rev. Edward F. Goin pastor, last week there were some conversions that have been made for those who are Not to be saved and undoubtedly will be the means of bringing a large number of this class of persons to the fold.
Mrs. Hattie Reed, of Norwich, Conn. spent a very pleasant visit in our city last week and was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Harrison, of 91 Eaton street, from the Journal, of the City, from Mrs.ville Brown, of the same city. They were entertained at ten Saturday at the home of Rev. Dr. and Mrs. E.

Mr. W. B. E. Benson will speak before the successor of the Bethel in M. E. Debate Mon West 21st street, New York, Mr. will be speaking April and. Failon will be taking the line of industry heat unity building and will be indulge in views by stereopticon with many pictures of Southern Negro life, setting forth the old and new conditions of his home community.
A few years ago William E. Benson, their leader, a young man just returning, home from college in the North, began to impress upon them the need of a school that would develop hand as well as brain, just like other colored people in other parts of the South had, but that the time was nearly past when Negroes could childishly wear Northern tricorns for help. If they should help him he would show them how they might develop the natural resources of their own country side and bring wealth from the mother earth and the forest all about them, and make this, ultimately, the best kind of support for a school. He said that he would establish business and industries that would employ the grown-up people all the year round and the young people when they were not in school, and that this business should be manned and controlled entirely by people with the skills and benefit. This company should aid them to raise their own crops, own their own farms, cattle and mules, and stay forever out of the clutches of the money lender.
They heartily agreed to this. They acted at once and in a very short time, less than a year, had by their labor, material and money contributions, with some outside aid, erected a school building with a large chapel, and eighteen dormitories and recitation rooms. Shortly also the industrial company was established with a capital of $10,000 and began the work of supplying that building with the development of an intelligent and industrious community life. In this way they are saving, in time, a whole generation in the process of racial development, for they are beginning with the heads of the families as well as with the children.
This work has passed the experimental stage and for years has attracted attention. It has received hearty commendation from eminent business men and educators as evidenced by articles which have appeared from time to time in the New York Evening Post, Boston Transcript, Review of Reviews and others. The company, incorporated under the laws of Alabama, with an authorized capital of $100,000, and known as the Disix Industrial Company, now has a paid up capital of $60,000, and for the past three years has carried about ten per cent. per annum and is paying four per cent. The school has held its own from the beginning and made substantial progress, though now very hard pressed because of the recent panic and laboring under a floating debt of $5,000, which it must lift, besides raising the funds to meet its current expenses.
Mr. Benson is in New York working very hard in the interest of this work. One of the most important aims of his work is to promote this community thoroughly known to the public, especially to the people of his own race.
Among the eminent business men who are giving their sympathies, advice and financial support to the Kowaliga plan, while at the same time acting as trustees of the school and directors of the company are Mr. Clarence H. Kelsey, of the Glencore and Trust Company, 125 Birkdale, New York; Oswald G. Villard, of the New York Evening Post; Rev. J. W. Cooper, American Missionary Association, New York, and Mr. George Burnham, Jr. of the Baldwin Loomotive Works, Philadelphia. These are only a few of the many prominent people who have a financial and philanthropic interest in Kowaliga. Mr. Clarence H. Kelsey, have moved made this statement about the importance of the work of not to make money and those of who first subscribed to its capital stock were prepared to lose our money, but now we do not expect to, and it looks as if it might be another case of wise philanthropy at five per cent, or better. This is one of the rare opportunities where colored people are offered the opportunity to cooperate with a large number of industrial capitalists and philanthropists and are actively supporting this enterprise with financial and personal supervision, and yet the enterprise is offered and is being developed by and for the benefit of colored people.
Every colored man and woman interested in the development of their race in the South should turn out to hear Mr. Benson. The story of his unique work is interesting. You are most cordially invited. A rare treat is promised. Admission free. Ice cream and cake served after the meeting.

LINCOLN INSTITUTE
Literary Organization a Feature of Scholastic Year-Junior Class Unvella Bust of Doughton—Gift of School
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Mar. 25.—A very pleasant feature of the season of 1900 for the ladies of the faculty of the University of Missouri, the Lafayette Lafayette's Reading Circle, with Mrs. B. F. Allen as president. This circle, organized early in the scholastic year, has met regularly on Saturday evenings; is a financial member of the Missouri State Federation, and later will join the National Association of Colored Women. His charisma is compelling, and he officiates a delightful woman, and the pleasant evenings spent with her in her beautiful home remain enshrined in the hearts of the members of the circle. Henry Vary Dykes's lectures, "Lessons in Application," is the book that has formed the basis of the study thus far and was completed at the University of Missouri. The work known as "The Novel and the Nation" will be the next work to be studied.
Douglas Day, celebrated at Ling in Institute, was a decisal success. The excellent program was given by the junior class under the able supervision of Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, department of classical languages. The unveiling of a beautiful bust of the great Douglas, donated to the institution by the junior class, was the occasion for rounds and rounds of applause. The music, recitations, orations and decorations were all high class, and the remarks made by President Allen, in responding to the presentation of the gift, were in his happiest vein*
Miss Mabel Moorman, who was recently called to Baltimore to the deathbed of her highly-esteemed and much-beloved father, returned to her duties in Lincoln Institute on the 12th inst. Regulations of respect for the deceased included a felony of disloyalty drawn up by a committee from the faculty, appointed by President Allen, were presented to Miss Moorman on her return.
"The Greatest Thing on Earth—Character" was the subject of one of the most practical addresses of the year, and was given to the faculty and student body by the Rev. Dr. E. S. Kitcher, of the Presbyterian Church of Jefferson City, on the 9th inst.
Jones says he then, at his gasmeter had had gas-trick fever, but now believe it to be affected with galloping consumption. From a Paris paper we take the following conversation in a police court: The President: "It appears from your record that you have been thirty-seven years in prison." The prisoner (not specifically): "Man is not perfect." (London Globe.)

THE "BLACK POLITICIAN"
To use the words of one in the large audience at the American Theatre Monday evening after witnessing a performance of the "Black Politician," it is a "good laughing show."
For despite the badly written musical comedy that the "Black Politician" is it affords a good evening's entertainment, intertwined with plenty of comedy and song. In fact, it is seldom that there is a dull moment when S. H. Dudley, the leading comedian, is on the stage.
A word or two should be said about Dudley, who has been the chief funmaker of the Smart Set company for several years. City Club looked this mirth-maker, who is really a funny fellow. For a number of years Bert Williams and Ernest Hogan have rightly held the title of being the two funniest colored comedians. For all that they still deservedly hold the title, but S. H. Dudley should not be considered humilied by Messrs. Williams and Hogan for Dudley is coming and coming far.
True, he believes, in indulging in considerable low comedy. However, it has not been such a long, long time ago that Bert Williams forsook such methods to make the people laugh, and for Ernest Hogan, although he is the best actor-comedian in the business he was just beginning to consider the advisability of eliminating all low comedy in his work because ill was forced to temporarily retire for rest and medical aid. So when one seen Dudley indulging in considerable low comedy it should be remembered that our two favorite colored comedians have been guilty of the same kind of work. Dudley is an exceptionally good dancer and it was his foot-work that was responsible for so many encores when female Pearl sang in the first act. Without the evening in his act, the applause received His principal song was "Old Black Crow", which served to the liking of all.
If Dudley was surrounded by an exceptionally strong cast and a large and well-trained chorus it is hard to tell just what he would do, for he has all the ear-marks of a successful comedian. He should bring to the minds of his management, however, that all good comedians need good plays; that no good actor is successful without having the proper vehicle to show his peculiar capabilities. The show that has run so long at the Majestic Theatre was written by colored men. They were instructed by their comedians to write a colored show for colored comedians, showing the peculiarities of the colored man but not always his traits as a dice-shooter or a drunkard who will sell his vote for 50 cents. In the case of the "Black Politician" the play was written by a white man. It is quite natural that low comedy abounds as that is his apprehension of the lower comedy the funnier it is to him. Let there be a little more sentiment and genuine darkey comedy in our colored shows.
It is a surprise to note that the large number of songs being used by the Smart Set Company can be heard almost everywhere. It is more surprising when you notice on the program that the musical director this season of the organization is James R. Europe, a young composer of no little ability. It is a wonder why it has such a Christian origin, it takes in consideration that he can turn out some very pretty musical numbers.
The cast surrounding the comedian is fair—nothing to rave over. It is a much better cast than the one that supported him last season, however. Will Carrington should develop into a good character actor some day. As "Silas Jackson," a relic of the Civil War, he was amusing at times and did not overdo his part. The presence of Tom Logan in the cast has added considerable star power to the show, has real a wide and varied experience in the show business. His portrayal of "Remus Boreland" candidate for mayor, was good.
James Burris as Walter Tiese, manager of the "Overland Burglers," does the straight to Comedian Dudley. In the second and third acts he showed himself to more advantage than he did in the first, and the others in the cast, were a little difficult to understand, due to their enunciation. It should be remembered that one of the requisites of a successful actor is his ability to make himself heard and understand at all times. He is leading lady again this season. She seems to improve in her acting each year. That she looks good in her clothes goes without saving.
Two characters that could be made very strong in the "Black Politician" are those played by Irvin Allen and Alberta Ormes an Epiphrian Crindle and Mrs. Mara Ormes. So Irvin Allen is concerned he plays his part well, very well, but he gets very little support from Alberta Ormes in the old woman character. She must remember that in character acting you must act as well as look the part. To have gray hair does not alone signify old age. Always on the stage with her old husband who holds the role of a friend, gracefully and creatively, with an old sign of infirmity or old age except gray hair—not even in voice.
The time has come for the Negro actor to consider more seriously the meaning of character work. It means that the women in that line, due to the reluctance of the women to want to look other than petticoat, must be played the play. If you are playing an old man or an old woman part as true to nature as you can. Make up like an old person, act like one and talk as near as you can like one.
Ross, Lee Tyler is the prima donna
this season. She has always poseded
a pleasing voice. Her first number was
in the second act. "When the Moon Plays
Porkhouses With You," audited by male
chorns. Together with her singing and
the very smiling face of the man behind
her she had a number of them. In
song, they sang "Beggar, Beggar."
THE FIGHTER
showing her high and low registers to advantage. But the song was entirely out of place in a scene where she and others were attired in evening dress. It should have been sung earlier in the evening where the atmosphere warranted the singing of the number. When multiple singers were in the audience was another Mine: Tylor and the bass singer, who, by the way, has a good voice, were singing a duet. If it was only a solo the bass section should be subdued in the number-Mine's too forte.
Eila Jones and May York, Will Ram-
man, a computer scientist, were well received.
The female chorus of the "Black Politician" is mediocre. There is the usual number of blondes and brunettes. It is one more chorus for light-complexions, there being about one true blue "brown" in it. It would be an eventful day if Ernest Hogan got hold of some of the girls and rehearsed them, they working with a glum look on their faces as though it palmed them. From the glaze expressions of Marie Young and Ellen Jones from whom some of the girls might copy, he be taught to work as if they enjoyed it, and say hip, hip, horray; with a vim as if they meant it. That is the proper spirit for all chorus girls to show on the stare.
This is the first appearance of the Smart Set Company in New York City with S. H. Dudley in the title role. From Monday evening's reception both the comedian and the actress must be a favorable impression. The "Black Politician" should draw crowded houses

Anniversary Celebration of Williams and Walker a Gala Event.
Congratulations, hearty applause, the sizing of old and new songs, flowers in profusion and a crowded house all played an important part at the Majestic Theatre's Tuesday evening, which occasion marked the sixteenth anniversary of Williams and Walker's partnership on the stage.
It was a gala event and Williams and Walker would have felt (to use Heart Williams's expression on the stage) "highly pleased" over the reception accounted them.
Every seat in the two upper floors was occupied two hours before the performance. At 6 o'clock so crowded was the gallery that the police were detailed to prevent more from going in.
The two first acts were played as usual, but the third act were omitted. Instead, Williams and Walker, Aidh Gunnan Walker the two cofounders and their organization famous in years gone by.
Two new numbers were tried out during the performance. Instead of the usual finale in the second act in which 'Until Then' is sung by Williams and an operatic number, the music of which was written by Will Marion Cook and the lyrics by Alex. Rogers, was sung by J. F. Mores and chorus. The number did not produce the effect that 'Bon Bon Buddy' does at the end of the second act, but it will probably be played in the second defects are righted. It is by far the best bit of work ever done by Negroes in a musical comedy. However, Tuesday evening no anxious was Will Marion Cook to produce it that he had it sung with only piano accompaniment, being unable to secure orchestrations in time, imagining how different an operatic number would sound with a piano instead of a large orchestra.
Then, again, most of the people wondered what it was all about when it was over. They were unable to fully appreciate its worth. It will be entirely necessary to lead up to the singing of the chorus, followed by the introduction so the audience will understand why the "Conjure Man" is on the stage and what he intends to do. Another criticism is that Williams and Walker are entirely obscured on account of the ensemble, they being off the stage when the certain falls. Tuesday evening instead of appearing on the stage, the first and the second were standing in the wines. J. F. Morse, who played the role of the "Conjure Man," lived up to his reputation of being the coming dramatic singer of the race. Although it was the first time he appeared in the number in public he not only sang but acted it an well. The audience was amazed at the success of the number with so promising a singer doing the solo work.
J. Lembrille Hill has a talent for a hit.
The title of the song is "Bill Simmons' Nister," and the gods in the gallery (and they usually know better than any what a hit in), could not get enough of it. It was sung by Alda Overton Walker after she had put on "It's Hard to Love Somebody."
When the curtain went up on the table, the chorus were singing "Thirsty."
is Out Tonight," one of the old song hits of the Williams and Walker Company. This was followed by Williams and Walker in a new song entitled "Bee Yor Owed Bean," the first song they ever did together. Bert Williams sang his old song hit "Nobody," and both of the stars took part in a medley of old-time songs. Alda Overten Walker was forced to repeat her song, Why Adam Siname, when he came with the singing of "Dora Dean" by Williams and Walker and chorus.
The Story of Two Mississippi Oleo and Cincinnati and Prince Henry of Cleveland
Every one knows the entertaining progeniture of Prince Henry, of the Parent City. Particularly do Ernest Hogan, Williams and Walker, Cole and Johnson, and S. H. Dudley know how he can "turn on" on; to use a theatrical expression.

Of the many congratulations received by Williams and Walker in all probabilities the one that affected them the most was a long telegram from Ernest Hogan, who is at Rutland, Mam. The telegram read: "Sixten years ago I tried to open your eyes to the great future, of the Negro actor. I am glad you have taken advantage of advice, because no other New York can daunch a gorious record you have all to be proud of. The credit in yours and you have it more of very hard work before you. May God give you strength to perpetuate the great work you have done. God bless you both.—Ernest Hogan."

Originally the Black Patti Company was booked to play Vicksburg, Miss.; Monroe, La.; Shrevesport, La.; Galveston, Houston. San Antonio this week.

THE SMART SET
The Story of Two Blessings Cole and Johnson and Prince Hunkey of Cleveland.
Every one knows the entertaining presentations of Prince Hunkey, of the Furst City. Particularly do Ernest Hagen, William and his author, Cole and John, and B H. Dudley know how he can "turn on on." to use a theatrical expression.
It remains to be seen in the future, however, if the prince of entertainers in Cleveland will live up to his previous record of invariably acting in houses where our Negro stars visit his city. If he is hereafter credited with according visitors the same treatment as one gets in Chicago, New York also included aided by a few different from Southern hospitality). Cole and Johnson will be held responsible for the decided change.
As the story goes, while playing in Cleveland Bob Cole and Rosamond Johnson were guests of Prince Hunley, who maintains elegant bachelor quarters. Both lay some claim to being experts in the culinary department. On what grounds, no one has been able to learn how to cook, but he forecoming East both gained reputations for boiling water without allowing it to burn.
During the latter part of the week the two became involved in an argument as to whom was the better cook. Prince Hunley was to be referee and the comedians were to cook biscuits. Each viewed he would turn out a pan of biscuits like "mother used to make." The would have been full for future stakes at Prince Hunley household had it not been that the host was made to taste of the biscuits cooked (with apologies to all cooks for use of the word). According to Prince Hunley he has seen some

sid, sad cake. Cake so sad that he could almost see tears emanating therefrom. He has also seen a very heavy, broad, broad, that would have taken the first prize in a heavy-weight contest. But the biscuits he had to eat to decide the baking contest are indescribable, he assorts.
To the color and shape of the so-called biscuits he refuses to make mention, fearing that his remarks might get back to Cole and Johnson and cause them to become offended. But he wants it publicly known that the bite he took from the so-called biscuit made by Bob Cole, and the bite he partook of the biscuit made by Rosamond Johnson will ever remain as a bit of history to him. Just why the two bites will be memorable he asks to strike.
The other Germans will take advantage of the opportunities offered to try their hand at cooking it has not been decided by Prince Humley whether he will in the future act as Cleveland's host.

EDITORS TAKE NOTICE
At a large expense THE AGE is conducting a dramatic page for the benefit of the theatrical profession and its readers. However, for several weeks past it appears that there are a number of editors throughout the country who seem to think that we are publishing the page for their exclusive benefit.
It is true that owing to the geographical location of THE AGE it is in a position to get the news about theatrical people far in advance of all other colored publications, but at that if articles are to be taken from this publication and printed a week later we believe that credit should be given the paper for name, which is a courtesy adhered to by our daily papers.
We are not averse to articles being copied from THE AGE, but we ask that credit be given to whom credit is due.
Mail Box for Performers.
Hereafter THE AUG will conduct a letter-box and its readers throughout the country can address* mail to the many Afro-American performers in care of the dramatic department of this paper. Before the AUG, we will talk about of every Afro-American performer. THE AUG will be pleased to deliver all such mailed matter to the proper per-

A most representative gathering of citizens attended the first grand annual ball and reception of Tri-Valley Lodge, No. 125, I. B. P. O. Elite of the World, Eastern, Pa., on Thursday evening. March success in every feature, a tremendous tentative and social gathering of the elites of Easton and adjacent towns. The hall was appropriately decorated with flags of state and local organizations enclosed with large and beautiful palms, most forth inspiring strains of delightful music, which beautifully gowned ladies in their evening attire light fantastic toe. All enjoyed the festivities of the unique occasion.
Chief among the many important feats was the grand march, led by Bro. W. H. H. Lowley, followed by the lodge in dress regalia. It was reviewed by Brother District Deputy Inspector, the wife of, Anchorage Lodge, No. 57, of the Bro. Detail conducive to the success of the function and comfort of the visitors was a soothing soergetic and affable committee of Anchorage.
Among those in attendance were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Webster, Scranton; Mrs. Bets, Boston, Mass.; Mr. Jamison, Philadelphia; Miss L. Boyd, New York; Philadelphia; Miss L.

It is assumed that the society, socially and financially. Brother James H. Williams, chairman, with the co-operation of his committee, made it delightful and enjoyable to those in attendance. Autumn from the adjacent cities and towns received generally to the invitations sent out.
Brother Anther James B. Anderson, the veteran assistant ruler of Manhattan Lodge, No. 52 writes the secretary of the lodge, the fifth assistant lodge, Cercutia, as follows: "Dear Sir and Brother: Confirming your letter of the 10th inst., I am pleased to acknowledge the commission put by Manhattan 45 and the museum in New York to allow you on the occasion of your fourth annual reception owing to it occurring on our lodge meeting night and at the artist's studio to eliminate the supernous growth" of a few "Vandikew" and French twisted moustaches from about fifty candidates. For that reason are the lodge members to be at a time when all adjacent lodges of Elks should promptly respond to each other's call. I beg on behalf of my lodge to assist Mother Lodge for success. We feel assured Brooklyn 32 will again endear herself to the hearts of the people and maintain the lead in fraternal organization. Grand Deputy George E. Bates, of Jersey City, writes: "I have received your letter enclosing three complimentary tickets to the fourth annual reception Brooklyn Lodge, No. 22, I. B. I. O. Elks."
"Kindly convey to Brother Ceruti my regards and thanks for this courtesy, but I am unable to avail myself of the pleasure of attending. I shall dispose of the tickets as requested in your letter." Brother Benjamin Lincolns held its second regular business meeting, Brothers Benjamin Lincolns, B. F. Sutton, Robert Hunt, M. W. Mayhew and John F. Williams reported on the discussion, which each were recommended and voted paid to Brothers Sutton, Hunt and Mayhew, and four dollars to Brother Lincolns, which is further investigation for future recommendation of relief assistance.

NEGRO RURAL' SCHOOLS
Hon. Charles L. Coon Writes Some Interesting Facts Concerning the Negro Schools of North Carolina.
Hon. Charles L. Coon, of the North Carolina Department of Education, some time ago submitted a report to the State Superintendent of Education, which is just beginning to attract attention. In a matter of the whole matter of educational progress, the State of North Carolina, Mr. Coon devotes some attention to a discussion of the Negro rural school and brings forward some significant facts. The facts contained in this report appear, and feel that for the benefit of our audience and thoughtful men, who are trying to find out what the real facts are as to who publishes and the location, we ought to publish extracts from
Mr. Coon writes: "In 1905 there were 73,535 zero children of school age in North Carolina, 6000 born died in the country and 34,252 live graduated school towns and cities. During the 1920s, of the 182,720 Negro country children of the 182,720 public schools, or 68 out of every 100, while 73,535 of these children attended finally, or 56 out of every 100 enrolled."

Now, it has been shown above that the white raised at the rate of $1.166,000 for schools during the year, $240,175.14 for schools during the year. As the white schools actually received $1,149,000, the $240,175.14 for schools during the year contributed by the rural white schools to the rural NRA schools during the year, and the NRA schools going to show that consider-
absly less than the $75,000.00, apparently contributed by the white by the Negro, was spent on Negro schools. Still, if this whole amount of $75,000.00 was actually spent on the rural Negro schools, the 414,000.00 county education were the more of the amount of money which is far too insufficient, it seems to me, to warrant the salaries which would make a division of school opportunity based on the size of the bank account and amounts who are fortunate enough to have children to be educated.
Of course, the figures given above are used as if all the school money were paid into a common treasury and disbanded. In fact, the school money is not done, each county having control of the expenditure of its own funds. The practical effect of a division of the school funds on the race basis, as outlined above, would be to increase the present school funds by a factor of two and to lessen or almost wholly destroy them in other counties. But the important material fact for us to remember here is that by no equitable plan of race the white children would be the white children of this State secure any material benefit either in better instruction or in longer school terms, and, in addition, the spirit which would prompt us to believe that we would be convinced by the intelligence of the world as a wholly selfish one.
These children are provided with 2,188 school houses, valued at $124.37 each. Only 64 of these houses have any patient room. Nearly half of these houses are found in 17 different counties. All the other Negro school houses are furnished either with home-made desks or with bench-seats. Nearly half of these houses have furniture except benches, which of itself makes it next to impossible to do any very effective teaching in the primary school. Videos of a video with so-called home-made desks are also, as a rule, wholly unit for school purposes, being uncomfortable and unsuitable to a degree. The furniture of a Negro school house in 50 counties in this State consists wholly of benches. And benches generally mean seats without locks and are not suitable for 100 of these 2,188 Negro school houses is there a library of any kind. But 64 of these houses are in two counties—Edgeworth and New Fauver—while the other 116 are in 94 counties. If the average value of these houses, grounds and equipment is only $124.37, it does not take a very vivid imagination to picture conditions in these schools, where all are not worth the average value.
The average term of the Negro country school is 80 days. But 27 counties, with a school population of 45,490, have a term of less than 75 days and 14 counties have a term as low as 60 days. In 40 other counties the Negro country school term averages from 75 to 80 days. These 40 counties have a Negro school population of 75,388. In other counties the school districts—Graham and Haywood. In the remaining 28 counties the school term for Negro school children averages more than 80 days. These 28 counties have a Negro school population of 14,888 and 18,220. Negro children have less opportunity for schooling than 80 days in the year, in places worth considerably less than $130 each. There is still another thing to consider in determining the efficiency of the Negro school: Each one of them has an average of 54 school population, and 54 of these children were enrolled with each teacher employed. The question which necessarily requires careful training of children in a school houses whose whole equipment—land, building, and furniture—is worth less than $130. And to add to the difficulty, nearly half of these 54 children were every school day during the short term.
So much for the physical condition of the Negro country school. The next question relates to the kind of teachers in the school. In 1885, the average salary of a Negro country teacher was $225 per month. In 1885, it was $225.00. The salary of these teachers has steadily increased last year. In 1885, 30 counties — Abuamun, Cleveland, Alexander, Ashe, Caldwell, Cleveland, Cumberland, Curritwin, Duplin, Durham, Edgecombe, Greene, Harnett, Hyle, Lenoir, Mockinburg, Pamlico, Etta, Etto, Humbert, Humbert, Sapporo, Stainy, Stokes, Terrell, Vance, Washington, Wayne, Wilkes, Yackin and Yancey—the Negro country teachers are now paid less than $20 per month each. In 11 of these counties, pay is $17.00 or nearly one third of the $17 a month on the average. The country school population of the 20 counties which pay Negro teachers less than $20 is about or nearly one third of all the Negro country school population of the State.
But there are those who hold the Negro school responsible for the crimes and inefficiency of the Negro race. Still others take the position that the white people have a right to Negro school and that the results are disappointing. Yet how can any one who studies the present condition of the Negro rural school, as set forth above, fairly hold Negro school after 36 years of progress, responsible for any of our socialists? Such schools cannot train children to be efficient, neither can they lessen the number of crimes. The State now simply hold Negro schools and not schools ought to the blunt cannot do. And, furthermore, in view of the facts I have tried to set forth, would it not be fairer to determine whether real Negro schools are doing anything of trying to hold the so-called education we have been grudgingly doing out to the black man responsible for that man's size of omission or commission, whatever these true? If the facts are true, then the true if the facts more than true, as every one who tries to find out the truth of them known), then surely we have a fruitful field in which to try the experiment of real Negro education if this State can determine whether it is while or not.
Who Pays for Negro Education.
Although the fundamentals conception of public education has made one child as compatible to the State as any other child, still there are those who consider cost of the education of children to be an important factor to be borne by the public, at least by the white public. They assume that the white race is now paying practically all the costs in the conduct of the Lowly schools, and, in proportion such as I wish, as making to increase the appreciation for Negro edu-

It is noted and remarked there in Birmingham that the Honorable Joseph C. Manning, of Tallapoas county, recently held a Republican county Conference to endorse the President himself, but did not endorse President Roosevelt nor Secretary Taft. It is said on pretty good authority that since Mr. Manning is no opposed to Secretary Taft he will/refuse to hold an office under him, after Secretary Taft is inaugurated as President. All the offices under him are held in Tallapoas county are beginning to apply for the office now held by the Honorable Joseph C. Manning.

cation. Perhaps it will be worth while, in view of the existence of this sentiment in some sections, to discuss the question of the County Treasurer's reports of the County Treasurer's for 1905. I find the following sums were raised for schools in the several counties during that year:
By tax. tax. $343,801.27
By fines. fine. 68,826.87
By liquor licenses. tax. 132,892.19
By leased property. tax. 736,110.38
I seems to me, therefore, that the white schools in the Negro schools often-trapped assertion that it is setting, and has acted for years, in a spirit of philanthropy toward the Negro schools when those schools make no better showing of efficiency, after 26 years of that philanthropy which gives and then constantly reminds the recipient of the gift, as has been the case in our dealing with the Negro schools, hardly could be expected to develop anything but selfishness in the plans devised for the education of the Negro schools, this selfish spirit continually hinders the true educational progress of the white race, for it ought to be understood by every one that neither the white schools nor the Negro schools will be successful in institutionalizing fully the right of every child, whatever his color, to the privilege of real education.
The conclusion of the whole matter is that every injustice done in the matter of the education of the Negro children must inevitably lead to disaster in the education of the public schools which we provide in selflessness for our own children to teach the higher lessons of selflessness and social service. And without such a spirit of brotherhood emanating, from these schools the children must necessarily fall short of inculcating the highest ideals of citizenship.
The Gradual Increase in Salaries, etc.
I have incidentally referred to the fact that there has in recent years seen a number of indebted teachers in this State. This also applies to the sums spent for Negro school houses. During the last 20 years the decrease in the following table which gives the amounts paid Negro teachers and those spent for Negro school houses:
| Paid | Spent for Teachers. | Bibblings. |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| 1885 | .829,204 | .827,828 |
| 1895 | .218,887,72 | .197,628 |
| 1905 | .105,887,72 | .197,628 |
| 1955 | fewer rural teachers were employed than in 1855 and in 1905, hence the average monthly salary of rural Negro teachers in 1855 was larger than in 1855, though the total amount spent in 1855 was less than in 1905 than in 1855. But it will be observed that the above table shows that considerably more money was spent on rural Negro schools in 1855 than in 1905, and in 1855 as was spent in 1905. Suppose our white school statistics showed the same results for the past 20 years, would not be necessarily alarmed at that evidence of
These facts, taken from our own official documents, I have thought well to place in some form for the information of those who may be interested, even though they are unpleasant to read. The reader has been told the truth must be known, if we would free our minds of a kind of prejudice and selfishness which continually works harm to the cause of the educational and material progress of both races.
The Economic Progress of the Negro
It is not possible in this brief statement to give all the available facts which go to show the increasing economic importance of the Negro race. In mention only those which are discussed by our own official records which are of our own significant. The following table explains it.
three years
Increase one year
Percentage increase
one year
The above figures are taken from the reports of the State auditor commission and that assessed value of colored property is increasing at a more rapid rate than the rate of increase for all other property except railroads and other corporation property.
In the face of the above facts, is it not equally proper to ask the State for an extra appropriation to better the condition of the Negro country school? The conditions which render those schools so inefficient cannot be changed materially without making their work more effective. And their work cannot be made more effective with better training and preparation. When that is done, the opposition to Negro education will necessarily pass away. If there is now any increased feeling of estrangement between the intellectual and the Negro race in white race, that feeling has been enveloped more by our failure to make the Negro schools what they ought to be than by all other causes combined. For somehow the intellectual Negro school and right to education of the public school finally depend for intellectual freedom and economic salvation.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA. March 30—It has been whispered that the "lily white" wing of the Republican party is seeking to gt Dr. S. H. Washington of Montgomery, to at least their meeting here, to see him in his "cut" paw in making the people believe that the "lily whites" are not opposed to the Negro, Those who know Dr. Washington firmly believe that he will not permit himself to be thus used and to be made a tool by the race through which he misrepresent them.
