THE NEW YORK AGE. HARMONY AND TAFT SLOGAN IN ALABAMA Negro and White Republicans Working Hand in Hand--Taft Enthusiasm Running High N. H. Alexander and Dr. U. G. Mason Elected For Chicago Convention—Five New Members of State Executive Committee—Resolutions Introduced By Dr. U. G. Mason BIRMINGHAM, Ala., May 20.—"Harmony and Taft" is the slogan of the Alabama Republicans. There are no "illy-white" in this State. If so, they are few and far between, and deem it beat to keep quiet and work in the interest of the Republican party. The enthusiasm displayed by all the white and Negro Republicans at the recent State Convention is still in evidence, and Alabama will be represented at Chicago by a mixed delegation that will be a credit to the State. The delegates are not through talking about the regular Republican State Convention held here a short time ago, which was attended by a representative body of men and when enthusiasm ran high at the mere mention of the name of Secretary Taft. Hon. Duman E. McKinley was responsible for much of the enthusiasm when he spoke on Republican principles. latest vials in the market, Dr. W. G. Alexander, M.D., who noted as toastmaster, delivered one of his characteristic witty addresses, yet filled with glowing hopes, for the successful results of the association and what it means for the race as well as the professions represented. The following speakers were all well trimmed for their respective toasts: I. A. Lawrence, M.D., president-elect of the association, spoke with enthusiasm, which the present gathering for the first time would give as a nucleus for greater usefulness in the profession. Among others who were eloquent in their views were: Dr. H. J. Burnett, Gustavus Henderson, New York; T. W. Robinson, D.D.S., A. S. Jones, M.D., G. Johnson, New York; W. H. Sutherland, D.D.S., Counselor Gao, A. Douglas. Among the members present were: Drs. W. W. Wolfe, G. E. Cannon, J. F. Lawson, J. C. Anderson, C. P. McMahon, W. P. Weling, D.D.S., W. J. Parks. Others not of the professions were: Rev. J. H. Lockjerk, Justice Scotland, Mrs. Dr. Cooper, New York; Miss Cannon, Mr. N. H. Alexander, of Montgomery County, will be one of the delegates at large to Chicago, and Dr. U. G. Mason, of Birmingham, will be alternate. On the new State Executive Committee there are five colored men as members; to wit: J. Peterson, C. W. Allen, Al Winbs, U. G. Mason and A. N. Johnson, the latter having been elected a member of the State committee as well as the county and the district committees. Following are the resolutions introduced by Dr. U. G. Mason, which were passed by a unanimous vote. Resolving the justice to be obtained by the strict enforcement of the Federal Constitution and statutory laws of the United States Government, Be it resolved that this Republican Convention of Alabama do hereby place itself on record in favor of the rigid enforcement of the 15th, 14th and 13th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, also the enforcement by the Inter-State Commerce Commission, the equal treatment to all passengers, white and black alike, where the same fare is paid. And we do further commend the President, Theodore Roosevelt, for the manly and statesmanlike stand which he has taken, as we out in a recent letter to Attorney-General Bonaparte, in regard to the enforcement by the Inter-State Commerce Commission, the law which must apply to all passengers alike. Be it further resolved that the chairman of the State Convention and delegates to the National Convention urge upon the Republican Congressmen and Senators of Congress to see that the above laws are enforced and all other laws which give to all citizens a square deal. Dr. Mason, who introduced the above resolutions, is one of the representative professional and business men in the South. WELCOME TO COLORED DELEGATES Chicago Preparing to Receive Convocation Visitors with Open Arms. CHICAGO, IL, May 20.—The colored men of this city are preparing to give the colored delegates and visitors to the Republican National Convention the greatest time ever given to colored delegates and visitors to any previous national convention. Unquestionably, however, the most beautiful and enjoyable affair to be given during the week of the convention will be the band concert and full dress reception tendered by the officers and men of the Eighth Illinois Regiment, on Thursday evening, June 18th. It is also planned to have an exhibition drill by the regiment, so that the visitors from the North, South, East and West may see what Chicago, and the State of Illinois have in the shape of Negro soldiers. It may be added that the Eighth is the only regiment in the land offered from colonel to corporal by colored men, and it will be a matter of much pleasure and deep interest to all to see them in action. It is the duty of the officers and members of the regiment that every delegate and alternate delegate to the convention receive an invitation, and it is requisited by the management that all delegates and alternates send their name and address at once to Col. John K. Marshall, 3632 Calumet avenue, Chicago, Illinois, to inquire their receiving an invitation. FIRST ANNUAL DINNER. Medical Profession of State of New Jersey Celebrate Anniversary For the first time in the history of the medical profession in the State of New Jersey the members were gathered together on last Monday evening in the spacious dining parlors of Davis, the leading caterers of the State, and there, between theory vs. practice in their respective professions, discussed what portends to become a living and active fraternity among the doctors of medicine and dental surgery: The assemblage of gentlemen with their wives, also several invited representative men, active in other callings, created an atmosphere decidedly harmonious, indicative of the progress of the colored citizens in New Jersey along the business and professional lines. The organization of the North Jersey Medical Association to which over forty couples, including others not of the association who were present, is a little over one year's standing. It's inception was the necessity of the coined physician and dental surgeons to unite for their mutual intercourse, in discussing the relative advantage of their respective practices, as well as to bring the two branches of demonstrative science under a traceable diagnosis. The efforts of those who have undertaken the attempt have been significantly successful, and at their first annual dinner the fact was particularly demonstrated that colored men of character, intelligence and ambition can be united together upon a common line of personal as well as racial development for the welfare of the rule at large. After the numbers of the fraternity and their who were married but not married, agreed all of it latest viands in the market, Dr. W. G. Alexander, M.D., who noted as toastmaster, delivered one of his characteristic witty addresses, yet filled with glowing hopes for the successful results of the association and what it means for the race as well as the professions represented. The following speakers were all well trimmed for their respective toasts: L. A. Lawrence, M.D., president-elect of the association, spoke with enthusiasm, which the present gathering for the first time would give as a nucleus for greater usefulness in the profession. Among others who were cloquent in their views were: Dr. H. J. Burnett, Gustavus Henderson, New York; W. W. Robinson, D.D.S., A. S. Jones, M.D., G. Johnson, New York; W. H. Sutherland, D.D.S., G. Gordon Gosse, Douglas Among the members were Douglas W. W. Wolfe, G. E. Cannon, J. F. Lawson, G. Anderson, C. P. McNeilson, W. P. Woling, D.D.S., W. J. Parks, Others not of the professions were: Roy J. H. Lockljer, Justice Scotland, Mrs. Dr. Cooper, New York; Miss Cannon, Mr. and Mrs. Pinston, Mr. W. Wilkinson, Mrs. J. IFFordkinson, Jersey City. After the speech-making, Dr. Balland, secretary of the association, presented to each member present their certificate of membership, and the tables were removed and the happy guests dispelled their thoughts of pills and forsakes to the dispassionate strains of sweet music. EQUAL SUFFRAGE LEAGUE Holds Monthly Meeting at A. M. C. A. Naxatene Church Reunion. The regular monthly meeting of the Epipal Suffrage League was held last Wednesday afternoon at the Carlton Ave- nue Branch Y. M. C. A. President Mr. Morton Jones was absent and Mrs. Melissa Garnett, the superintendent, read a very interesting paper reviewing the work of the society since its organization. The seventh annual reunion of the Nazarene Congregational Church was held at Summer, Hall last Tuesday evening and was largely attended. Short addresses were made by Dr. W. L. Hunter, Rev. George R. Coverlake, Rev. T. A. Miles, Rev. G. F. Miller, Secretary W. A. Hunton and Mrs. M. C. Lawton, after which an appetizing menu was served.

The congregation, which is made up of a mosting for a number of years in Summer Hall, as they have no church home. This fact, however, does not discourage them, for there is seldom a service that their place of worship is not filled. The members and friends are bending all of their energies toward purchasing a church home or building an edifice.

TAFT STRENGTH IN VIRGINIA Unexpected Happens in a Richmond Mass Meeting RANDOLPH'S SPEECH Sways Meeting and Secures Delegates Antagonistic to Lily-Whiteism - No Bolt in City Convention - H. Green Delegate. RICHMOND, VA., May 11. Politics, politics, nothing but politics is the talk in Virginia nowadays. And it will ever this be so with, the return of each quadrennial wherein a chief magistrate of the republic is to be elected. The Republican district and State conventions not in this State during the of the A. M. E. Church and the A. M. E. Zion Church month of March and delegates to the Chicago Convention have been elected. Under the be a miscarriage of the wishes of the party as expressed in these convention, the 24 votes to which the Old Dominion is entitled will be cast for President Roosevelt's War Secretary, Judge William H. Tatt, at Chicago. Some two months or more back a Dr. Sinhair, of Philadelphia, came to Richmond and stirred up a big sentiment among the Negro voters in the interest of the candidacy of Senator Joseph Benson Potts, and at the same time to protest against "billy whiteism" and the "discharge without honor" of the Negro soldiers as a result of the "shooting up" of Brownville. "Remember Brownville" was the slogan which culminated in a monster mass meeting of Negro voters of Richmond in League Hall. "Remember Brownville" was the slogan, year a very tallman, with which Dr. Sinhair conjured the Negroes and stirred them up against President Roosevelt and Secretary Tatt. While this meeting, which was maneuvered by James H. Hayes, Joseph R. Pollock, Dr. John Maude Benson, Pre R. K. Jones and Dr. P. B. Ramsay, was called ostensibly for the purpose of discussing "Brownville" yet, beneath the surface and breaking forth in fiery demilitation in every speech made, was condemnation of "billy whiteism," the President. Secretary Tatt and Professor Booker T. Washington, "Mr. Roosevelt was referred to as "President Booker T. Roosevelt" and Dr. Washington as "Professor Theodore Washington." The speakers at this meeting were Dr. Sinchair, James H. Hayes and Joseph R. Pollard. At the conclusion of the speeches a series of resolutions was offered by Dr. Kumsey condemnatory of the President's action in discharging the Negro battalion and lauding Senator Foraker for the great efforts he has been making to secure a fair and impartial hearing for the soldiers. At this juncture the unexpected happened. E. A. Randolph, Esq., ex-alderman and a leading attorney of the city, was called upon for a speech. Mr. Randolph is an alumnus of Yale, graduating in the same law class with Secretary Taft, whom he knows personally. Mr. Randolph's speech was an eloquent tribute to the War Secretary as an American citizen and worthy to be the successor of Rooneycev as chief magistrate of the nation. Mr. Randolph's speech was beginning to tell, so the promoters of the meeting hurriedly consulted ope another, and for fear that if the speaker were allowed to continue he would "steal away the hearts of the people" they rapped him down, telling him his "time was up." By a rising vote, the several hundred voters present pledged themselves to go to the main city convention the following Saturday night and help stamp out "illy whiteism" by electing delegates to the district and State conventions who were appended to the "white peril" that has gained such a foothold in Republican circles in the South in recent years. Well, the eventful Saturday night came, and there were fully 200 Negroes in the hall when the meeting was called to order, and about twice that number of white men, but among the white men there were scores who were not of the "illy white" persuasion and would willingly have entered into a coalition with the Negro vote to break any state that was put up by the "illy whites," or, if recognition was not given, to bolt the meeting. Messrs. James H. Hayes and Joseph K. Pollard had been put forward by the Negroes as their leaders and spokesman and it was expected they would take the lead in every movement affecting the interests of the Negro voters. They were present, but a "hary-a-word" did they say, did they intimate what their wishes were in the premises. And there sat 200 Negro voters as "dumb as oysters" and with as much interest in the meeting, seemingly, as an inhabitant of Dahomey. After the reading of the resolutions lauding the administration of President Roosevelt and endorsing Secretary Taft's nominees, George St. Julien Stephens, one of the Negro voters present, was recognized and in a short speech seconded arch, in Conference at Norfolk and Philadelphia re the resolutions. The resolutions were then adopted by an unanimous vote. Later during the meeting, W. P. Burrell, another Negro voter, obtained the floor and made an impassioned speech in which he denounced "lily whitism" in most seating terms. But there was no bolt; the delegates were elected, a new city committee elected, Taft endorsed and the meeting adjourned. In the Third District Convention there was no bolt; nor was there a bolt in any of the other nine districts nor at the State convention Harry Green, one of the most prominent Negroes in the Fourth District, and a Taft man, was elected one of the delegates to Chicago. Of course the Negroes of Virginia, as are the self-respecting Negroes of the entire Southland, who stand for the manhood rights of the race, are opposed to "lily whitism." But opposition to "lily whitism" does not and should not mean opposition to any honorable Republican who aspires to the chief magistracy of the republic, forthought, he may have support from some of the voters who are "lily white." As an outcome of the "Remember Ribbonville" meeting, although participating in the Republican primaries by their presence, never once holding city, district or state conventions, a "committee of five" representing "God knows what" has issued a call for a Republican State convention to be held in the city of Richmond Friday next May 15, for the purpose of electing contesting delegates to the Republican National Convention, in opposition to the delegates already elected and instrugt for Taft. In recent years—not since John M. Langton was once leader—the Negroes of Virginia have had no political race leader. The Hon. Harris of Dinwiddie, the Hon. Mitchell of Dinwiddie, and the Hon. Mitchell of Dinwiddie, measuring up to political leadership than any others, and yet what they did was rendered ineffective, mainly because a few would-be leaders, with as much political sagacity as a Fiji Islander, would ever work to pull down what these men would construct. It is this very reason that there is not an active, virile Negro Republican organization in the State. Congressman Slemp, an State chairman, and his late father, whom he succeeded in Congress, began the work of rehabilitating the Republican party in this State. In their effort they sought the hearty cooperation of the Negro vote. They advised a close organization of the Negro in every city and magisterial district in the State, promising financial aid in helping the Negro to carry to perfection the plan of organization. This was three years ago. The organisation was perfected, but some of the very men who to-day are throwing film continuously in anticipation of the nomination of Taft and have gone raving, crazy mad for, any one to beat Taft, and threatening to hold the Chinese nomination and vote the Democratic ticket or else skulk in their tests on election day (Questioned on Page 2) ELECTION OF BISHOPS AT A. M. E. CONFERENCE Greatest Incident of Second Week of Conference-- Five Bishops Elected--Africa Given Two No Stronger or Better Set of Men Ever Elevated to Bench of Bishops—Bishop Turner Retired Elected Historian—Brilliant Addresses of Week—Women of the Church in Conference Special correspondence to The New York Avt. Norton, V.A., May 19, On Sunday, the 10th inst., all the edifed churches of Norfolk and surrounding towns invited the General Conference to fill their pockets, which it did through the respectively. Committee on Public Worship, the secretary of which read the appointments on Saturday afternoon. From all points come high commendations of the sermons preached by the several ministers. Many hearts were touched and it is hoped that the good seed will bring forth much good fruit. On Monday all the delegates were in their places. The number of visitors was greatly increased by the coming of many of the members of the W. P. M. M. and Southern Women's Missionary organizations, who apart from the fact that they have husbands and other relatives, and friends attending the Conference are here to hold their quadrennial convention and to get such legislation passed by the General Conference as will enhance their work. Among the ladies present are the following ways of bishops: Mosdames Sarah Tumper, Grant, Smith, Sailers, Tumper and Tumper, Grisham, Dolle T. Tumple, Idha Yasmin, Grisham, P. P. T. Jessie Hurst, Veronica and a number of other prominent women from all sections of the country. With the assembling of the Conference speculation began to run high as to when the elections would take place, and as to how many bishops would be elected, and as to whom the honor would be given. It was generally known that the bishops' recommendation to elect but three would not prevail; but the exact number could not be decided upon until the Episcopal Committee had reported progress, and had made its recommendation. Ordinarily the committee should have reported during the latter part of last week, but in consequence of the extra amount of work which it had to do necessitating in four cases the appointing of four subcommittees in order to expedite business, it came to pass that it was not until 13 a.m. on the 11th that they appeared on the floor of the Conference and asked to be permitted to present a partial report. Permission having been given they reported that they had examined the characters of all the bishops and had found them all blameless; that they recommended that five bishops be elected, three for the home work, and two for Africa; one for South and the other for West Africa, and that they further recommended that the African bishops be required to keep on their respective fields for 12 years. The chairman also informed the Conference that there was a minority report on the question as to the number of bishops that should be elected. In the result the minority report, which advocated the election of three bishops was lost and five were decided upon. The earlier days of the work saw but little serious business transacted. Par-trial reports of committees; the in-production of bills, and the usual methods by which time is killed were the order of the days. Everybody was on the tip-toe of excitement as to when the bishops would be elected and as to how many would be decided upon. By Thursday all the reports were before the Conference, and meant to their respective committees. PRICE, 5 CENTS The Coming of Bishop Turner,' Detained at his home in Atlanta, Ga., the aged primate of the Church could not attend the first week of the Conference, and prayers for his recovery and presence were freely offered up. On Sunday there was great rejoicing when a telegram announced that he had started for Conference. 'On Monday the announcement that he was in the city was the sound for many expressions of pleasure. The members, of the Conference called him and later in the day when he appeared at the Conference floor he was given an ovation that lasted many minutes. He thanked his benefactors for their many tokens of appreciation and love. Told of the severity of his illness and returned thanks to the great Head of the Church for his recovery. Later on he went before the Episcopal Committee. There the bishop among other things carefully urged the necessity of electing two bishops for Africa. 'Do not he had said to the General Conference, 'negotit Africa in the matter of episcopal supervision.' The Relation Between the Chair and the Floor Perfect harmony has existed between the chair and the floor. Although some days the debates have been very heated and for a moment or so the Conference has gotten away from control, yet just as quickly have the men bowed to the authority and ruling of the chair. Many Southern papers have been at pains to joer at the Conference for its confusion, but the state which they have described was but vaporish visions of their purbinal imaginations. To expect 500 men in the midst of a debate on a great subject involving issues of vital importance to the connection, to be as quiet as a class of mutes would be exceedingly foolish, and to characterize their earnestness, and at times exertions as a sign of non-development is as silly as the perceptions of these impachers of the Negro generally are. On the Conference floor and platform are men—and a goodly number of them to best—who are equals in intelligence and much more, save in truth, of the best of this or any other bank. The bishops are dearly, beloved by the men over whom they have presided during the last quadrennium. As a token of this best most of them may be presented with rich and beautiful bonquets as they have taken the chair and assumed the gavel. These gifts have been the spontaneous expressions of high esteem and sincere affection, and are very gratifying to all concerned. The Conference has, as a whole, shown its approval of these tokens of regard by the bursts of applause which have greeted them. On Saturday morning, the 9th. Bishop Salters, who was in the chair, took occasion to deliver an address full of fathers' counsel to the Conference. This innovation was highly appreciated. He reminded the delegates of their sacred calling and congratulated them upon what they had done in the past for the advancement of the Redeemer's kingdom and admonished them to follow in all particulars the great human ideal—the Son of man—and so win His blessings here and share His glory hereafter. An Educated Ministry Among the business transaction on the 11th was a resolution by Dr. Askew looking forward to the proper education of young men aspiring to the A. M. E. ministry. Dr. Askew is a young man of much promise and is sure to take a prominent place in his Church's history. He is trying to get before the Church his students' movement, scheme which will, he is certain, be a blessing to the Church. In order the better to formulate and develop his plans he announced his intention of seeking election as Secretary of Education. "That there he made his mistake. Prof. J. R. Hawkins has tilded that position so satisfactory for the last eight years that it would be an exceedingly difficult task to displace him. The fact that the professor was unanimously reelected proves how well pleased his Church is with his work. But Dr. Askew has taken a position that will command attention. Some day the Church will be with him. A Tinge of the Hidleulour. In the most staid and reverend of assemblies it is not possible that the entire session should come to an end without somewhat of the ridiculous being introduced. Now there are 13 districts, and so large are the Conference delegations that they take up the entire auditorium, and alternates who are in attendance have to be sent to the gallery. Well, on Monday a wise pore convulsed the Conference and won its impressively expressed contempt by introducing a motion that the districts should change seats alternately day by day. Of course the motion was tabled. But no doubt the maver got the head of fame which he longed for, viz., to get his name on the minutes. Worn-out Ministers' Homes. Worn-out Ministers Homes. There can be no mistaking the fact that the Church is greatly in need of means by which her worn-out ministers might be cared for in the evening of life. Within the last few months, however, some of the young men, notably Drs. Winefield and Scaly, have been advised the direction and management of homes for need ministers in each episcopal district. To this end Dr. Winefield introduced a bill on the 11th. It was referred to the proper committee and will come up for discussion early next week. The Awakening of the Laymen It is gratifying to note the degree of interest which the laymen are taking in the working of the Conference. They are over 100 strong and their vote is powerful. They have organised and although it in their principle not to seek to influence the ministerial delegates, yet they take to themselves all their rights, but use them so judiciously as to win the apprehension of all concerned. The Praternal Deleges on On the 12th Conference listened to a fraternal address addressed by Dr. A. A. Cronke on behalf of A. M. E. Zion Church. The greatness which were delivered in chanting hymns and fine style, richly deserved the name lavishly bestowed in the many good points. On ELECTED BISHOPS A.M.E.CONFERENCE (Continued from Page 1) Saturday, 10th, Dr. J. A. Bray brought the Conference greeting from the C. M. E. Church. It has seldom been our privilege to listen to a finer address than that delivered by this gentleman, and we say this after having listened to such orators as Dr. B. T. Washington and Vernon. Dr. Bray's address was freely punctuated with applause and other demonstrations of pleasure, and approval. The doctor and his wife were both involved and is within a man of culture and refinement. He is a fine product of the South. The white people of this Southland are asleep. They do not know the Negro. When they shall have awakened to the realization of the magnificent type of Negro that is rapidly developing in their midst, without their help, and amidst the damnable difficulties that they are forever putting in his way, they will find—but wait, history, we know, the fact is that the many good points that of Dr. Bray many good points was that the people who think and do will always be the ruling people whatever their color may be. Dr. Bray is only one of a vast number of young Negro men and women who are doing a mighty lot of thinking—by and by we will get the "doing." On the 11th Dr. Lee, of Görgörn, submitted a resolution declaring Bishop H. M. Turner historian of the Church, vice Bishop Arnett, deceased. The resolution provided that the bishop should be received of the oversight of a district; that his pay should be the same as he now received and that he should continue to be primate. The resolution was, on motion, unanimously adopted. * The Beginning of the End. As we have already stated the Episcopal Committee reported progress on Tuesday, the 12th. Two reports were presented, a majority and a minority report. The former, which was signed by 30 members, advocated the election of five, while the latter favored three. In bulk, the latter adopted, and Wednesday, immediately after the reading of the journal, was fixed as the day and time of election. The period of choice being in sight the aspirants and their friends were kept busy until a little after noon on the 13th, when the tellers and clerk having been appointed, candidate calling began. The H. H. Parks, Lampton, Chappelle, while Drs. Flipper, Conner, Leake, H. T. Johnson, J. A. Jones, Gaines, L. H. Reynolds and others were freely discussed. On Wednesday every delegate was in his place before Conference was opened and the galleries and available spaces on the auditorium were crowded by visitors, hundreds of ladies being among them. After the reading of the minutes and the transaction of minor preliminary business, Bishop H. M. Turner, D. D. primate, delivered a soul-stirring prayer for Divine guidance in the selection; hymns were next sung and then the Conference entered upon the most important task of the job: to abstain from Chief Secretary Johnson to call the roll; at nearly 3:30, when the count was made, it was found that something like nine candidates had been voted for and none of them had received the requisite majority vote to elect. "No election" was therefore declared by the Presiding Bishop, Dr. L. J. Coppin, and the delegates again started to ballot for three good and three poor to fill the office of President. The vote was counted it was found that Des. Lappin Parks and Flipper had been elected. The announcement was the signal for great cheer and for some minutes all business was suspended as the delegates shook hands with or kissed, or cheered their friends who had been elevated to the high office. The scene was not without its pathetic side. The demonstrations formed at Parks, who is a general favorite, won the votes of his friends embraced him and went on his shoes for joy. For a time the good doctor bore up bravely, but in the end he broke down and joined his tears with those which were flowing around him. A few minutes later quiet was restored, and Conference proceeded to the election of two bishops for Africa—one for South and the other for West. On the first ballot Dr. J. A. Johnson was elected for South Africa and Dr. W. H. Heard for West. What the People are Saying There is a unanimous consensus of opinion that a stronger and better set of men has soldon been elevated to the Bench of Bishops. Dr. Lampton comes from the Financial Department, at the head of which he has been for six years—having tilled out the two unexpired years of Dr. Hubbard, who died two years after his election in 1900. Dr. Lampton is a first-class financier and the chairman of Washington that has won or his Chair and himself a high place in financial circles. Dr. Parks comes from the Missionary Department, over whose destinies he has presided with distinguished success for the last 12 years, while Dr. Flipper leaves the presidential chair of that renowned seat of learning, Morris Brown College, Atlanta, Ga. These men are a tower of strength to the Church, and will, no doubt, greatly enhance her future history at home and abroad. The African bishops, or, rather, the bishops for Africa, are also well spoken of. The General Officers. The following general officers were reelected: Dres. J. H. Collet, manager of the Book Concern, Philadelphia; H. T. Johnson, editor of the Christian Recorder; H. T. Kealing, editor Review; Mr. Im Bryant, secretary-treasurer of the Sunday School Union; J. R. Hawkins, secretary of education; G. W. Allen, editor Southern Christian Recorder; J. B. F. Watson, secretary Church Extended School; Dr. Parks' office has gone to Dr. W. W. Beckett, of South Carolina, while Dr. J. Hurst has succeeded Dr. Lumpkin at Washington: For years Mr. Irn Bryant has had his eye fixed on the secretaryship of the Sunday School Union. By propaganda of every sort he has brought himself prominently before the Church. At this Conference he worked hard to win and to the surprise of many, won. Rev. Dr. Chapale, whom he has displaced, feels his defeat keenly. Of course he ran for the bishopric, and as he must have known, there is quite a tendency at all General offices to oust the president of a general office in violation of his for the higher office and fails to get it. Secretary Bryant has made many promises in regard to the successful working of the department. The Church will anxiously wait to see how much sincerity there is in these promises. The Women of the Church The women of the A. M. E.

TAFT STRENGTH IN VIRGINIA if the Ohio jurist is nominated, refused positively to have anything to do with the organization. And why? because they were not at the head of the movement. Had they helped make this Negro organization a success, it would have been so strong in the State to-day that the Negro could be in a position to partly dictate his terms to the party organization. Lest we forget, the Negro vote is incomparably small with the Republican vote of the State; he has no organization; he made no fight in Richmond city for recognition, and what possesses him now that makes him think he has a right to send a contesting delegation to Chicago. God only knows. That Judge Taft is the choice of the aggressive Republican vote of the State is a matter of fact. That Judge Taft is "illy white" is not a fact. The maltreatments and insurgent may first and foam at their heads; they may "putate and aggrandize" about the injustice that they have done them but if there has been an unbending by and they alone are responsible for it. It matters not who is nominated at Chicago, if he is placed upon a sound and substantial Republican platform he will receive nine-hundred and ninety-one thousandths of the total Negro vote cast in Virginia. The Negro Negro has not reached the parting of the ways, in national politics, so far as the Republican party is concerned, and never will, as long as the party stands for the principles that made American citizenship possible for the Negro. John Mitchell, Jr., voices the sentiment of the Negress of Virginia when he says: "We are the Negroes who perverse itself and endorses the fads and fancies of the anti-Negro contingent from the Southland, then the time will be a hand for the colored people of the United States to cast lonely in the direction of that organization that will promise to them, no special privileges, but the rights guaranteed to all men regardless of race, color or previous condition, the Constitution of the United States." The party has not reversed itself as yet, and has shown no desire to do, and until it does, God forbid that any Negro whether of high or low degree should survive a hair's breadth from party loyalty. GEORGE S. JULIEN STEPHENS. J. E. BUSH. Delegate-at-Large From Arkansas for Taft, First, Last and All Time. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., May 15.—That there is no attempt on the part of the white Republicans of Arkansas to intro- duce "Jily-whiteism" in this State was shown when at the recent State Convention J. E. Bush was elected as one of the "Big Four" to Chicago. Since his election as delegate at large Mr. Bush has been receiving congratulations from friends and supporters of Secretary Taft all over the country. He is one of the few Negro delegates at large who will attend the Chicago Convention and feel sure that he will hold his seat, as well as that he will be actively engaged in politics for a number of years in Arkansas and is one of the State's brainstem men. He is known as a fighter, and showed conclusively that he was by coming out first best in the political semimage of a few weeks ago, when opposition to his election seemed at one time strong. Mr. Bush is a director of the Capital City Savings Bank, president of the Order of Mosaic, member of the executive committee of the National Negro Business League, and interested generally in everything that is helpful to the Negro people and white people throughout Arkansas who hold him in high regard, and he is looked on as the leader of the Negro race. "I am for Secretary Taft first, last, and all the time." Mr. Bush recently wrote to Tink Ack. He presides the institution of the Secretary on the first day.

THE BROWNSVILLE CASE, Tr is to be regretted that conditions are such that the Brownsville matter cannot be settled at this session of Con- gress—and settled ina way that would have done justice ta every soldier who was dismissed in that famous wholesale and unfortunate discharge. The Sena- tors, however, who have been the most ardent and. carnest. champinns of the cause of the colored battalicn whose case is at bar have conchidtd the best thing to be done at this time—the best thing for the men for whom they are fighting—is to wait until all of the ex- citement incident to this particular event and its relationship to the presidential election lias subsided. We are éon- strained. to the, belief that. this is. the most’ serisible attitude to assume in the matter and hy, far the wisest step: that ‘could be taken at this juncture of the proceedings in Congress, Senatar Far- aker himset¥, the leading force in the hattle for the restoration and complete rehabilitation of the soldiers, has recag- nized the futility of his efforts to et the votes for the discharged'men at this seasion of Congress. Like a good gen- eral and-farseeing, statesman, he prefers a probable victory for them next De- cember to certain defeat now. Under present conditions the friends of the sol: diers cannot get the votes in the United States Senate. That is a “foregone con- clusion. : i There are“ thousands of ‘white men who aré camest and: honest in their championship of the cause~of the dis- missed soldiers, but we know that there ‘are many others who are using’ the sit- uation produced by the discharge of thé men solely for political and ‘personal reasons. The Brownsville matter has been the most profitable asset the so- called “allies” have had in their ‘opposi- tion to the candidacy of Secretary Taft. Now that the prop has been so suddenly and so rudely snatched from under the cause of the “combination” we expect to see the opposition to Judge Taft dwindle: completely away. By The greatest good that will come out of the unexpected situation developed by the action of the Senate will he the prob- able squelching of certain professional Negro “Ieaders" who have kept ‘them= selves’ before the public solely on this issue.

If he believes inthis he believes in every other form af dis- crimination practived against the Negro. Tt seems to us that if these men whe call themselves leaders. really had the interest af the race at heart they would cmleavor to speak and to act in such a way that they might gain the conti. lence nf the thoughtfnl people ames these whom they are trying te influence Hi the colored people of the enunrty have a real grievance against the Re= publican party the place in which to get redress for that grievance is within the lines of the party, not outside of the breastworks.

Last fall our friend Harry armonnced boldly, in ‘one issue, that the Senitoe was not in favor of the election of Burton as Mayor, and called on the colored voters of Cleveland to vote against Burton in uirder fo show their loyalty to. Foraker. On the same day the Cleveland Joyrnal cattied, a letter from Senator Foraker in whicte lie advised all Republicans, to suppect the, Ruston. ticket, In the Cleveland Gazetie’s last isste apipeared the following editorfal: “Senator Foraker says there will he no adjournment of Congress until the Brownsville, matter is settled, and you [know he fas a way of saying: truthful ‘things only. Good! “Hold their noses to the grindstong, senator, we'll will- ingly turn the wheel.” By the time the Gazette reached its readers with ‘this apparent authoritative announcement the public knew that Sen- aton Foraker, from his seat in the Sen- ate, chad arose and “moved that the Brownsville matter go ovgpyntil next December. ew Now why is it that the Senator never consults the able cditor of. the Cleveland: Gacette first? “His failure to do $6 ap- years to place the editor in the ridic- ulous position of declaring that a cer- tain thing will not be done after it has already been done. uiGee ee According to United States District Judge Hough in a recent decision. given in New York, the judicial branch of the Government has no, power to eoeree or review the diseretion of the Pres- ident in the Brownsville affair, Judge Hough held that asa question of law the soldiers of the “Twenty-tifth Infan- try were’ discharged by President Roosevelt without honor, and that in his capacity as Commander;in-Chief the courtshas not the power tos render a decision, interfering with’ his actions The decision was rendered in.the case of Private Osear Reid, one of the dis+ charged soldiers, who instituted pro- coalings to recover pay irom the date of his discharge. ‘The degisien dees nor mean that the discharged spldiers will ot he able: to get redress, byt emphatizes the fact that the subliers will have to nok to the Presiden and Congress and not the Sees Cie: baaeaa: eee ene eT ge ree Linented Brederick Digebiss “Phe Re Fen ee a wdneatinge men ter the ministry. -West- fn Messenser, * ie le Sate eke tne he ca en i AN ie reals bang, He ociot Hume fleet Sane siento iar: NM ame ice pine aa « HEAP OSES ws sion in na nd eg ear ame coke ee Be ete mes Tete, ea Remnle Eae Be a meer alia a ce eRe, ee att eg ees Tie tt GopST sie bsdlbeens sy teed ei ati ea aap ogre te Ameo ue A ceca fo bees naa po senek i Bes SRY eee ances Rinne hae Saree ae ALM ee cio a aca ee Mah Sree at pare nasi, Aes no Mg ar oe como Tf Mr. Taft in to be fought it ought TL Th fees toatl Hehe paar tener mrt ie in efent—and where therein so much loubt, we may never bear the last of it. yollths: at thin tira, | The ereat A.

WEW YORK AGE PUBLISHING COMPANY . 1} eee Cana Deere Bes ert Music and the Stage ```markdown ``` COLORED SHOW INVADES BOWERY At last the Negro performers have invaded the Bowery. This statement may not impress the casual reader as possessing any unusual significance, nevertheless it means much. The Bowery is one of the most unique as well as noted spots in New York City. In its general make-up it is entirely different from any other locality in Manhattan. The inhabitants of the Bowery live as they see fit, and their style of theatrical amusements is different from that of the majority of New Yorkers. As the "Boweryites" reign supreme in their bailwick, they are seldom, if ever, confronted with the so-called Negro problem, for there are not enough Negroes on the Bowery to furnish a race problem. Thus there has never been a demand for colored shows on the Bowery. It has been the one spot in Manhattan where the "not wanted" sign has been up on Negro performers. As far down on the East Side as Pantor's and Huber's has the Negro appeared in all his glory. The West Side has always been the one bright and particular spot where he gained name, wealth and fame. But on the Bowery the twenty-three" sign has always been on the Bowery they support burlesque shows and productions where plenty of blood and thunder are in evidence. It is here that the villian and the hero are hissed and applauded lustily. So it was up to "Jolly" John Larkins and his organization of colored performers to bodily lavade the sacred precincts of the Bowery and give the theatrical novices of the "forbidden land" the power to roar, to dance and comedy. The title of the piece in which the company is appearing is called "A Trip to Africa." The title is taken literally first-of-fourly by the patrons of the London Theatre, where the company is playing, for, with the exception of Joe signs or some other colored boxer in a burlesque show, they have never seen a company of Negro performers in music and dance. The audience at the London Theatre, to the writer, was far more interesting to watch than the people on the stage, for he had always attended the theatre where the patrons were well acquainted with colored shows. But in this gase those in the audience — the novel — something enlightened, different from the "blood and thunder" and the burlesque shows to which they were accustomed. In two instances the colored performers made a decided impression on the audience—in their singing and in their dancing. Most of the songs were enthusiastically received and the singers were enclosed. The "Bowerytites" also seemed to like the dancing and evidenced their approval by hand-clapping, cheering and whistling. But after that! It's a sad, sad story. When John Larkins and his jolly band were doing a bit of comedy one would have thought, from the silence in the theatre, that the villian was about to cause an engine to run over the heroine or some hair-raising situation. Almost every time some comedy was magicked all the people began to wonder if the people in the audience spoke German or Italian and were unable to understand English, so "frapped" were their facial expressions when they should have laughed, at least smiled. The whole trouble was, this typical Bowery audience did not understand Negro comedy, and was only familiar with the slap-stick comedy that one sees in a burlesque show, or in the movie In a general half-dozen laughs there the audience during the entire evening's performance. But the inability of the colored comedians to make the "Boweryites" laugh heartily does not reflect on their ability as laugh-producers. They are up against a hard game. In fact, they are performing mission work, and will have to activate a teammate thirst of theatre-comedy as has been done elsewhere. In the "Merry Widow" Company was to play on the Bowery it would not make the hit that "Why Girls Leave Home" or some other stirring melodrama would do without a doubt. In the cast of "A Trip to Africa" with "Jolly" John Larkins are such well-known performers as W. J. Ringgold, and W. J. Tankins, all of whom have been making people laugh—that is, until they struck the Bowery. Others in the cast are Elizabeth Wallace, who is leading lady and who does her lines as though she enjoys her work; George Reece, who plays the role of a bear; Herbert Sutton, mail carrier; Clarice Wick, Sapoilio; John Garcia, as waiter, and James Marshall, as the detective. John Larkins as "King Jasper" is to a decided disadvantage so far as his comedy work is concerned. But in his singing he more than makes good. His song in the first act, "Royal Coon" is a very good number and the "Roweries" made him repeat the number several times. In a theatre where colored shows have played before, and with a song will make a big hit with the song. Another number of his that found favor was "Dolly, Brown," which he sang, assisted by the chorus, at the end of the last act. Tom Logan plays opposite to Larkins in the role of "Jim Grafter." As the bad man after the money he played a character familiar to the patrons of the London Theatre, and for this reason was well received. Melvin Ringold sang and danced as old. He rightly enjoys the distinction of being the leading colored comedien on the stage. A very promising tenor in Herbert Sutton. But let him remember two things—he must acquire confidence in himself, and learn to breathe properly. He has two songs, which he sings advantageously. The audience took kindly to his song in the first act, "The Man in Gray," and he was also compelled to respond to encues in the last act when shaking "Kentucky Home." The first act closes with dancing of the fast and furious order. Between the first and the second act, to use the exact wording on the program, "polite vaudeville" followed. The first on the bill was Clemo and Cancelle. Mine was the second. Pearance is very attractive, and her partner is a contortionist of no little ability. They were followed by a hoop-rolling act entitled "Hoop City." a second edition of Harry Krayton's act. John Krhin added a little ginger finger to "Cannon Sock." A second and Taylor closed the vaudeville program in a musical act that was not bad. The second and last act was opened by the chorus, singing "Pekaboo." Then W. J. Jenkins sang the "Hoodoo Man," assisted by chorus. After a little more comedy, which the patrons did not seem to understand, the show ended by John Larkins singing "Dolly Brown," with chorus. In the company are Julia James, Anna Bordenave, Alice Alix, Etta Gossie, Esie Williams, Ada Mickey, Fannie Edwards, Haraz Carling and Marjorie Sipp. "Bandanna Land" Closet This Week in Brooklyn. Williams and Walker are at the Folly Theatre, Brooklyn, this week in "Bandanna Land." The company will close the season at the Brooklyn playhouse Saturday night after a most successful season. The two comedians will rest up until June 1, when they will enter vaudeville for a limited engagement. Black Pattl Company Close This Week at Elizabeth ATLANTIC CITY.

Boston, May 19.—An appreciative audience heard a very creditable resolution of Faust by the Theodore Drury Opera Company last Tuesday evening, in Jordan Hall of the New England Conservatory of Music. Five acts were presented with an intelligence of interpretation that leaves no room, for doubt as to the dramatic possibilities of the race in the staging, while not elaborate, was appropriate. The costumes were beautiful. However, the highest praise comes from the members of the Boston Operatic Society present, who declared that the effort of the Drury Opera Company compared favorably with any of the amateur singers of the dirigible of Theodore Drury the choral numbers, quartettes and duets were all intelligently sung. Mr. T. Walcott Swan, the promising young Boston singer, in the leading role of Faust, was very good, his solos being sung with inimitable grace and tenderness. The character of Marguerite could be perceived the sweetly womanly qualities of the heroine, and with the exception of a little nervousness, she portrayed the character very fairly. Several of her songs brought forth great applause. Mr. Edward Rolls as Antonine was the most dramatic ability and his tragic death scene was most realistic. Mr. W. H. Richardson's conception of Mephistopheles was true to the character. The impersonation was most forceful and his sterling abilities as operatic heroine were effective. Mrs. L. G. Wilson as Martha, Mrs. Lillian Lewis Noble as Siebel and Mr. W. H. Hamilton as Wagner sung their parts very creditably. Harry Burleigh Sings at Home of His Birth. ERIE, Pa. May 19—Harry T. Burleigh made his annual appearance in his home on the campus at St. Paul's Parish House, and tended to the pupil he was very enthusiastic. The Erie Dispatch had the following to say regarding his appearance: to say regarding his appearance: "The eminent New York harbite, Harry T. Burleigh, was greeted last evening by a large and appreciative audience which gave the artist most positive assurance that the old time adage which says that a prophet is without glory in his own country, is not an unfailing rule. St. Paul's parish house was filled with Erie's music manifold and charmingly beautiful arranged and charmingly rendered program simply captivated his hearers. He has a voice of pleasing range, sometimes assuming a tenor quality, and again a full, rich harbite. He gave five groups of songs, all of which were enthusiastically received. The plantation songs were rendered with that delightful melody which always reaches the hearts of his hearers. In response to an encore, St. Burleigh gave 'Old Black Joe.' "The closing group of scenes were magic particularly interesting by a short description. It was Mr. Burleigh's pleasure to have been present when the gifted author, Mr. Darnach, wrote "The Deserted Plantation." Damrosch wrote the score and seems to have found an absolutely correct setting for the melodious, half-weird story, which Mr. Burleigh interprets with such delightful accuracy that one sees with the poet the deserted plantation. The author, 'Mandalay,' was given with excellent voice and dramatic power, which elicited long continued applause." Miaa Jeanie Muse Star of Recent Concert at New Haven. NEW HAVEN, May 20—The third annual concert of the Colridge-Taylor Choral Union took place last Tuesday RLEIGH ba, Mrs. Lewis Harcourt, wife of Commissioner of Works, from Mrs. Hamilton, daughter of J. Pierpont Morgan; Lady Evans, of Hempstead, Eng.; Lady Cromer, Mrs. Edward Jaffray, Arthur Shipman, Cambridge University, and Mrs. Bradley Martin, Mr. Burleigh hopes to return in time to assume his positions in the fall at St. George's Church and Temple Emmanuel. evening at Warner Hall. It was a great success. One of the features of the concert was the ensemble singing, the mixed voices blending harmoniously and bringing out some stirring chorus effects; under the baton of Pro.: William E. Haasche, of THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1908 Boston Amateur Sing Fount. Yale. The beautiful quality of tents brought out by the chorus is due to the work of Prof. Haache. Among the choral pieces sung were several plantation melodies. "Steal Away" was perhaps most effectively rendered. The other choral numbers were: "The Dance" by Oyston; "O for the Winds of Winter" by Deloschin; "Jack Prost" by Gaul; "The Boy and the Bee," by Caldicott, all of which were received with unbounded applause. Miss Jessie Muse, the daughter of Mr. and R. M. H. Muse, made her debut as a solist and she captivated the audience with her voice, which possessed sweetness, range and volume. Miss Muse sang the "Flower Song" by Gounod; the "Flower Girl" by Bevignaud; and the "Love in Springtime," by Arditi. She has a natural trill—a trill that electrified the house and we predict that in the future she will delight New England audiences. Her singing was not only a surprise but a revelation to the people. Miss Muse received maly bouquets, and was enriched at every number. Miss Muse Adam will come in for praise. She will recite the invitations "In the Morning," by Dunbar: "The Courtin'," by James Russell Lowell, and "The Party," by Dunbar. She also received encores and beautiful flowers. No concert has so strongly emphasized the social life of this city for a decade as the one last Tuesday. Mr. R. H. Muse has the highest commendation of all in the part he took in facilitating and making the audience feel comfortable. Prof. Hacec expressed himself as more than pleased with the splendid work of the singers. Others who contributed to the success of the affair were: Miss Victoria J. L. Browne of Chatham Fowler; Miss Rachel Ferguson and Miss Fannie Perkins, of Brooklyn. Musical and Literary Notes from Washington WASHINGTON, D. C., May 20.—The operetta, "The Moon Queen," which was so successfully presented on May 1 under the direction of Mrs. Madge Dyer White, will be repeated at True Reformers' Hall on the evening of June 2, in response to popular demand. The same cast will take part in the second performance, and the proceeds will be used for the benefit of St. Luke's P. E. Church. A number of new features are promised. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell has returned from a highly successful tour of the Southern States, lecturing on a variety of subjects in the principal cities of Texas, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and South Carolina. Prof. R. T. Greener is also here after a long itinerary covering much of the same region of America Cameron White has been putting in a season in the Far West. The Whitman Sisters are playing a successful series of engagements at the various churches of the city. They are preparing an entertainment of exceptional merit for their appearance next Monday evening at the Metropolitan A. M. Church. The twenty-seventh regular session of the Bethel Literary and Historical Association closed on Tuesday evening last, with Rev. Walter H. Brooks as the speaker. His subject, "The Black Man's Duty to Himself," was handled in eloquent, graceful and forcible style. He enunciated the doctrine of self-help, civic and more pride practical education and intelligent application of talents as some of the instrumentalities through which the Negro could best do his duty by himself. Music was furnished by the Amphion Glee Club, directed by Prof. J. Henry Lewis. Miss Marle A. D. Madre has made an excellent presiding officer, and under her guidance the society has grown in membership and popularity, and its high standard of scientific and literary research has been consistently maintained. Whitman Sisters in Washington. WASHINGTON, D.C. May 19.——The Whitman Sisters are meeting with great success here and are booked in the local churches until the last of June.

A dramatic force, sattled "Trouble at Salterlees," was presented last Thursday evening by the Teacher's Training Class of the Concord Baptist Sunday School at the Carlton Avenue Branch of the Y. M. C. A. Brooklyn. The force is a strong force of performance well worth the price of admission. The force was presented under the direction of Miss Fannie M. Perkins.

Colored Men, Rally to the Republican Standard !! MONSTER MASS MEETING Next Tuesday Evening, May 26th COOPER UNION where Abraham Lincoln, 48 years ago threw down the gauntlet to the slave-owners of the South and sounded the battle=cry of Freedom! THIS Mass Meeting, held under the auspices of the leading Colored clergy of New York, has been called for the purpose of giving the Colored voters of this great city an opportunity to reaffirm their allegiance to the principles of the great Republican Party---the party of Abraham Lincoln, the Colored man's idol---and to pledge their enthusiastic support to its coming standard bearer, the HON. WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT PROMINENT MEN WILL MAKE SPEECHES, INCLUDING RT. REV. WM. B. DERRICK, D.D., L.L.D. BISHOP H. B. PARKS, D.D., of the A. M. E. Church EX-GOVERNOR P. B. S. PINCHBACK, of Louisiana and Leading Clergymen of this City Bring Along Your Wives and Friends Doors open at 7 o'clock sharp Music by the Famous New Amsterdam Band AFFAIRS AT ABYSSINA Replying to the article of denial in last Thursday's issue of The New York Amz. I emphatically avow that Evangelist Witcher, on several occasions, denounced educated ministers and institutions of learning. He did announce himself as temporary pastor of Abysinia. About three Friday nights ago he also attacked the Y. M. C. A. which is located in West 53d street. He declared that the institution was not a Christian one because its officers allowed members to participate in games within the precincts of its walls. If I were not accused of writing the article that appeared on the 7th instant. I would have allowed the first part of the article appearing in the issue of the 14th instant to go unnoticed. The published statements of Mr. C. T. Witcher were made from the pulpit of the Abysinian Baptist Church from time to time, and to say that he did not denounce educated ministers and institutions of learning would be a deliberate falsehood. This young evangelist, as he terms himself, even directed his attack, in an indirect way on a certain Friday night, to the Rev. Charles S. Morris, ex-pastor of the church, when the Rev. Dr. Jordan, secretary of the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, who was present, replied by saying: "It is not right to trample a man that is down." That Mr. Wiltcher's preaching was most welcome to the majority of Abyssinian's congregation remains to be proven. If my work is confined to the Children's Church (which work is a sacred one and which I love) and if this work is a part of Abyssinian Baptist Church, and for which I receive a regular monthly salary, pray, will these gentlemen tell me the relationship I sustain in connection with the church? What did church call upon me on several occasions, for the past four years, to receive into its membership candidates? Why have they allowed me to administer the rites of the institution, if I were not the associate pastor? If the position of associate pastor is vacant, this shows that it must have been filled at some previous time, by some one, and if so, by whom, pray? Who represented the church at the Holy Trinity Baptist Church, Brooklyn, during the ordination of theKeys, Richard A. Rorster and Timothy White, at 2 p.m., on May 29, 1907? Referring to my action in leaving the church on May 3 as being unwarranted, is nonexistent. My propriety of decency coupled with my past training actuated me to leave the church, instead of remaining which might have caused a commotion in the house of God. The attack made on me in public print by Meurs, O'Hagan and Waller is, therefore, a vague one. Thanking you for space, I am, WILLIAM S. HOLDER. P. S.—On Easter Sunday night Deacon Irby announced that as Mr. Wiltcher had preached his final sermon, he wanted the church to give the preacher a good aftercollection. This collection was lifted by Meurs, O'Hagan and Irby. Why is it then that this evangelist's services terminated on Sunday, May 10, instead of on Easter Sunday night? Union Baptist Church. The services at the Union Baptist Church this week were instructive and interesting as usual. On Tuesday evening Mr. Prince Hammond rendered an interesting program the Twelve Tribes of Israel. On Wednesday evening the Singing Class met and reheated. On Thursday evening Miss Williams rendered a short program to the Gregory W. Hayer Literary Center. On Sunday, at 11 noon, Rev. Boddie, of New Rochelle, preached a soul-stirring sermon on "Wherever Your Treasure is There Your Heart is Also." The attendance was excellent. Dr. Boddie is an able Gospel preacher. We are proud of him in our State. He is sound in the doctrine of the Bible. At the afternoon service Rev. E. N. McMandles, pastor of the Fountain Baptist Church, Summit, N. J., used for his text, "Ye must be born again." He preached a strong sermon and all who were present enjoyed the message. The B. P. Y. P. U. not at the usual hour, the Junior Society had charge. Miss Morgan is president. At 7:30 p. m. the Southern Beneficial League turned out in full for their annual sermon. This league consists of Southern men by birth or parentage. The financial statement showed that this society had $1,200 in the bank. The doctor preached a strong sermon on "Perservance." There was a great deal of spiritual enthusiasm. We also had the pleasure of having with us Miss Rosalea M. Jonas and a friend who are great friends of our race. Collection for the day amounted to $223.20. Sunday morning at St. Paul Baptist Church the pastor turned the service over to the members, who spent the time in n, Rally to the MONS SS M uesday Even AT OOPER from Lincoln; 48 years a of the South and sou meeting, held under the ausp seen called for the purpose o ity to reaffirm their allegianc of Abraham Lincoln, the Col coming standard bearer, th VILLIAM ply to the Repu MONSTER MEN Day Evening AT PER U 48 years ago threw outh and sounded the under the auspices of the er the purpose of giving the m their allegiance to the pr Lincoln, the Colored man's i dard bearer, the AM HOW --- NENT MEN WILL MAKE WM.

After the service, the pastor baptized one candidate. The Sunday school convened with a good attendance. In the evening the pastor delivered a fine sermon and extended the hand of fellowship to five new members. The Lord's Supper was administered to a large number. Brothers Thomas and Cross made remarks which were very interesting. On Tuesday evening the Tribe of Joseph gave an entertainment known as the "Spinster's Convention." It was a fine success. The house was crowded and the audience was well pleased. Those taking part were: Mrs. J. smallwood, president; Miss L. A. Lewis, secretly-treasurer; Mrs. L. R. Jones, Mrs. Viola Thomas, Mrs. Pattie Johnson, Mrs. Emma Green, Mrs. M. H. Thompson, Mrs. Caroline Starka, Mrs. Louisa E. Lewis, Mrs. Mary Athkins, Mrs. Emma Craig, Mrs. H. Christian, Mrs. M. E. Thomas, Mrs. Stella Queen, Miss Mary Shepherd, Miss Irene Athina, Mrs. Francis Quinn, Miss Ida Dabney, Miss E. Booker, Mr. Albert Dancy, Mr. Cornelia Gray and Miss E. E. Brown accompanist. After the concert a fine collation was served in the reception room; which was greatly enjoyed by a large number. The room was beautifully decorated. Albion, N. Y. Notes Services in Allen A. M. E. Church were well attended last Sunday. Rev. Joseph Harper, of Lockport, N. X., delivered two excellent discourses. The Sabbath school was well attended. Mrs. Jennie Wales is still on the sick list. Rev. De Shields is quite busy preparing for Conference. Quarterly meeting will be observed the first Sunday in June. The Rev. Wilson, of Niagara Falls, is expected to preach in the evening.
