REV. F. B. ALLEN ADDRESSES YOUNG MEN'S ASSOCIATION Head of Boston City Mission Gives Practical Talk to a Large Boston Audience LOOK OUT FOR POLITICAL GRAFTERS Begus Call Issued for "Money, for National Convention Delegates to Protect Negroes' Rights." Scheme of a Band of Rank Fakirs—Personal News of Boston Boston, June 8—"How to Right Wrong," by Rev. F. B. Allen, at the Young Men's Educational Association, last Sunday, was the subject one of the recent addresses recently delivered to Negroes in Boston. This was the address by the eminent head of the Boston City Missions and Trustee of the Robert. Gould Shaw Settlement House before a large assemblage of colored citizens as to how they can best secure redress for their grievances and continue their progress. Concluding a learned discourse, he said the Negro race was essentially and potentially the equal of any other race and was not without the pale of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. Nothing proves this more conclusively than the black man's continued upward trend after passing through the severe American crucibles of slavery, suddenly-acquired freedom and political and civil oppression. Notice of the proactive, saving spirit of the Negro, other primitive races, like the Indian, under the stress of competition and oppression, have fallen by the wayside. E. L. K.; George Taylor, E. L.

Derby; master of social session, Louis E. Dunbar; organist, Benj. Harrell; chaplain, Fleet- The speaker said the Negro has suffered wrongs in the past and still suffers wrongs, many real, others only fancied, under the realism of the campaign, it is as encouraging as it is gratifying to the well-wishers of the races, to observe that the masses of the colored people in this city have not gone off on any tangent and are pursuing the even tenor of their upward way. The great charity worker said finally: The Negro must not alienate the socialist or an anarchist; he must press onward in the strife with patience, fortitude and trust in God. The eloquent speaker was frequently interrupted with applause, and was accorded an ovation when he finished. Miss Florence Stewart rendered two pleasing soprano solos, while Miss Stewart elicited the presence with an intelligent recitation of "Evan-geline." Many requests have come to your correspondent to warn our people everywhere against the venal promoters and political grafters who are asking to be sent on popular subscription to Chicago to protest against the nomination of Secretary Taft. The call, as it is stated by the solicitors and published by the so-called Congress, to the National Republican Convention to protect the race's interests. It is also rumored that these Negroes, once at Chicago, intend to fight the nomination of Gov. Curtis Guild, of Massachusetts, for the Vice-President. This to be on the ground that he didn't yet the State appropriation when the fact of the matter is, Gov. Guild is one of the squares and test Governors Massachusetts ever had. For the benefit of all concerned, we warn you that this is a band of glory-seeking charlatan editors and pulpitless preachers. Time and circumstances with which they are without principle, honor or decency. They are discredited here and without standing abroad. Money sent to them is money sent to continue their disgrace of the race in Boston and at the Republican Convention. Attention paid to them by anyone is time wasted. Despite erroneous and designing newspaper reports, they represent nothing and nobody. The personnel of the Hotel, Upton corporation has changed. Messrs. David E. Crawford and F. F.

The dress was that these stores did not keep toilet articles which appealed to our people. All this has changed since "Complexion Miracle" was discovered. Now you see colored women at the same counter with white women, all wearing "Complexion Miracle." That product is even more valuable for colored than for white people. In fact it benefits everybody. It is just as important for colored women to make them appear more feminine, colored woman of New York said. I like "Complexion Miracle not only because it makes the skin lighter but it makes you feel and look so clean" just as if you had been plunged in some magical kind of a bath. The fact is "Complexion Miracle makes man or woman better prepared to take up the social and commercial duties of life and will help them to maintain their beauty.

Zion Church in Providence Bishop Hood Turns Conference Over to Bishop Walters—Other Incidents and Speeches of Conference Session PROVIDENCE, R. I., June 8.—Glorious weather, a goodly representative of bishops and general officers and a smooth operation of business were notable features characteristic of the sessions held by the 64th annual assembly of the New England Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Conference of the A. M. E. Crooke, D. M. d. pastor of the People's A. M. E. Zion Church, and his officials had been busy engaged HON. P. B. S. PINCHBACK. making, preparations for entertaining the conference, and their efforts were rewarded by a most satisfactory result. The conference opened shortly after 12 o'clock Wednesday, June 5, at which hour the opening hymn, 662, was announced by Bishop Alexanus B. Mishler of Bishop J. W. Hood, D. D. L.L. D., read the Scripture lesson, following which prayer was offered by Rev. J. F. Moreland, Ph.D. The second hymn was announced by Presiding Elder E. Goo, Bible, D. D., and then Bishop Hood engaged in the course of a few very impressive remarks relative to the twenty-three years of which he had been in charge, and he was about to turn over to Bishop Walters. In a forwent but earnest manner the latter replied and received the gavel which for so long a time and in so commendable manner had been wielded by that most distinguished churchman, Rt. Rev. James Walters Hood. In accepting his new duty, Bishop Walters declared with emphasis that the priest as had been adopted and conducted by his predecessor, and also said that Bishop Hood would remain in the conference as associate bishop. Rev. A. A. Crooke, pastor of the local church, followed with remarks regretting much upon the retirement of the beloved senior bishop of the church as the presiding head over this diocese. Bishop Walters next introduced to the conference one of the newly-created bishops, Rev. M. R. Franklin, I. D. Franklin, and received pleasure first of all because it was from this conference that he had received his first inspiration when starting out upon his pastoral duties. The second session convened at 3 o'clock. Rev. Frank Arthur, of Africa, announced the opening hymn. Bishop Walters then announced that Holy Communion would be administered by Bishop Hoot. One hundred communicants recorded. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. B. W. Swain, of Warcester. The speaker chose for this subject "The Sermon on the Soul of the Sinner and the Building Up of the Church of Christ." He divided his sermon into sections, the three most potent being a gospel of cunningness of holdiness and of love. At the close of the sermon he P. M. E. Zion Church, in the interest of the sermon, which he is the secretary and known as the Brotherhood Union and Relief Association of the A. M. E. Zion Church. The remainder of this session was devoted to the various reports. The evening session was characterized by the talk by the State and to the city by Governor J. H. Higgins and Mayor P. J. McCarthy respectively. Rev. J. Francis Loe offered prayer, after which the chair sang. Then in a fitting manger Bishop Walkers introduced His Excellency the Governor. At the conclusion of the manger, the governor was introduced. As in the usual custom of Mayor McCarthy, he greeted the conference with a cordial expression of welcome, offering them the freedom of the city during their entire stay. Professor S. G. Akins responded to the addresses of welcome in a most pleasing and eloquent manner. The business session was opened about 10.30. Bishop J. S. Caldwell, D. D., simply expressed his pleasure in being present and being permitted to take a part in the work of the conference. Bishop George *Blackwell, D. D., A. M., who was recently elected to the board of bishops, was then introduced. The afternoon session was devoted to the reports of the lay delegates and the annual report of Presiding Elder E. Geo. Biddle. A feature connected with the business of this session was the acceptance into the New England Conference of the Society of Bishops, sent not only himself but a congregation of forty-two members. Rev. Nichols comes from Amherst, Mass, and has a fine recommendation. In the evening the conference and large congregation present listened to a most admirable and eloquent sermon by Bishop Blackwell: The morning session Friday was devoted to the continuance of claims and reports. The first part of the afternoon's session was used by the Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society of which Mrs. Hood is the most efficient and popular president. The meeting was for the purpose of arousing an increased effort upon the members. Each was requested to make some remarks to encourage the president and in each other to aim to double the financial support which they had given to the church during the past four reigns, $5,000 per reign, and to spend during the coming four years they would be able to realise $10,000 as a result of their efforts. At the close of this meeting Bishop Walters called the conference proper to order and asked for the report of the secretary of Missions, Rev. H. A. Morrison, D. D.; secretary of Church Extension, Rev. W. H. Coffey, D. D. and Contingencies, Wormout Preachers and Widows and Orphans. The last department was reported for by Bishop M. R. Franklin, according to a law of the church, six widows and one wormout minister received contributions from the conference. The evening service was devoted to the African missionary cause. The Rev. Frank Arthur, a native of Africa, adored and eloquent speech described the grave situation in the so-called "dark land" and the great necessity for assistance to the worthy inhabitants, so many of whom had never received the light of Christ. Episcopal Church rendered several selections of a very pleasing nature during the Taft Supporter at Chicago Convention service. An appeal for contributions for the "Small Memorial Church" resulted in a collection of $200 for said cause. Saturday was devoted largely to the continuance of reports and also to the curring of memorials for the Bishops of the Diocese, and the interment, however, was the magnificent epositional address of Bishop Walkers. The first part of his address was, of course, devoted wholly to the church property. He paid a glowing tribute to Bishop Hoak, emphasizing upon the marvelous activity in which he labored and discharged the same work with great dedication in toto as a mark of love and loyalty to the beloved bishop. Concerning the newly-elected bishops, Drs. M. R. Franklin, G. E. Blackwell and A. J. Warner, Bishop Walkers declared that they were men possessed of ability sufficiently great to add great strength to the A. M. E. Zion church and the A. M. E. Zion church final plan of the church, he was fond in his praise of its worth, by which has been raised during the last quadrennium the sum of $500,000. The Colored Drug Store.

Even the South is beginning to tire of the radical and erratic leaders. That the citizens of the Southern States are beginning to wake, up and regard all public questions with some degree of conservatism was shown in the recent primaries last week in Georgia, when Hoke Smith was defeated for a renomination for Governor by 15,000 majority. Hoke Smith's defeat is attributed to the activity of the business man who has grown tired of his radical utterances on railroads and Negro disfranchisement. The people of Georgia have reached the conclusion that business conditions are not of the best when men of Hoke Smith's calibre are forever seeking to raise some issue that will create bitter discussion and cause a slump in business. Joseph M. Brown, who so decisively defeated Hoke Smith, was not so well known throughout the State, yet he was supported for the Democratic nomination by voters in the rural districts as well as in the cities. While strange, yet it is true, that the Democrats in the South are beginning to realize that they will never be able to accomplish any good by following radical leaders, hence they have discarded Hoke Smith, whom they two years ago nominated for Governor by a plurality exceeding the aggregate vote of his opponents, and who was elected Governor by 94,233 to 98 votes cast for the politician Socialist candidate. Hoke Smith's principal talk has been negro disfranchisement, which does not tem to have been given much consideration by the Democrats of his State. Georgia's primaries evidence, without a doubt, that it won't be long before the question in the South will be given less attention than heretofore. Conservatism, not radicalism, is bound to be the slogan as the reaction in the Georgia primaries indicate. The letter written by Joseph M. Brown after he had been apprised of his nomination is worth reading. We print it herewith: Prohibition was not an issue in the campaign. The people have decided that the legislation attempted and that threatened against corporations and capital were too extreme. Georgia's policy was conservatism and the protection of capital and labor each in its respective rights. The verdict of the people is condemnation of agitation which has proved so hurtful to vested interests. Joseph M. Brown, Democratic Nominee for Governor of Georgia. GRAFTERS TO THE BEAR GRAFTERS TO THE REAR. At the public meeting of the Bethel Literary Forum on Thursday evening of last week one J. W. Henderson read a paper on President Roosevelt and his policies. Instead of being a declaration of the real policies of the administration it was a political harangue against the President and Secretary Taft. This same individual, we are informed, was recently in Albany, soliciting contributions from members of the Legislature to help him propagate colored Republican organizations in support of the Republican candidates. He is also said to be editor of a paper called "The Torchlight," published at Providence, R. J. When it last made its appearance we have not been advised. The Bethel Church is presided over by one of our most eloquent and able clergymen and the president of the Literary Forum is a most estimable practitioner in our courts. We would suggest to these gentlemen that it would be well for them to use a little more discernment in the selection of individuals invited to speak before the Bethel Literary Forum. It is time that our men of character expose fakirs and grafters, whether in the ministry or of the laity. We wonder if this editor and pretender is the same man who jumped his bail in Philadelphia. ALLIES DEFEATED IN REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE. Statements given out, by the "Allies" several weeks ago that when the Republican National Committee met at Chicago to decide the cases of the contesting delegations it would be shown that Secretary Taft could not be nominated, as the committee, would seat most of the contesting delegations unfavorable to the nomination of the Secretary. At the time The Ace advised its readers to not listen to srch talk which was sent out by the press bureau conducted at the instance of the "Allies." as the author of each comrade were only talking to hear themselves talk. Thus we were correct in our views has been clearly demonstrated by the action of the Republican National Committee in seating the delegates favorable to the nomination of Secretary Taft. The first meeting of the committee resulted in the Taft men winning 26 seats in the convention. Since then the seating of the Taft men has gone steadily on. Secretary Taft will be nominated on the first ballot. It is useless for the "anti-Taitites" to look forward to any other result. There is nothing in being a hard loser, for that is bad politics. Let the "Allies" submit to the inevitable, jump on the band wagon and make the nomination of Secretary Taft unanimous. "LILY-WRITTIM" DIEBS IN REPUBLIC CAN NATIONAL CORPRIETER. Thanks to the Republican National Committee, the "Lily whites" will not be recognized at the Chicago Convention. "Lily-whiteism" is not a form of Republicanism, therefore the attempt of these Southern white politicians to represent the various Southern States with only white delegates has been to no good purpose. Some Negro journals have been asking the question: "What influence will Secretary Taft assert, if any, in the Republican National Committee relative to the "Lily whites"?" The first day the Republican National Committee met clearly brought to light the stand Secretary Taft took. When the contest for the seating of the Alabama 'delegation was taken up one of the principal speakers was N. H. Alexander, a Negro of Montgomery, Ma, who asserted that the Scott-Davidson faction has sought to employ "lily white" tactics in Alabama, while the Thompson faction overturned the "lily white" movement in the State. He told of the attempt of the Scott-Davidson faction to have Alabama represented at the National Convention with a solid white delegation. After the speeches of Mr. Alexander and others the committee decided in favor of the Thompson delegation as entitled to sit in the convention, which will have Negroes in the delegation. Before the Republican National Committee concludes its labor it will in no unmistakable terms, show to the world that "lily whiteism" is not wanted and will not be encouraged in the Republican party. The Negro is a part of the Republican party—and will have a large-part in the election of Secretary Taft. The National Negro Business League will hold its ninth annual session in Baltimore, Md, August 19, 20, 21. Mr. Harry Pratt, the second vice-president is in charge of arrangements and the citizens of Baltimore are rendering him splendid support. This meeting will be largely attended. Information comes to us from the business men and women of Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Texas that they are coming in large numbers. The business men of the East should begin to bestir themselves. We must show the West what we are doing. Wake up, brethren. A few so-called leaders of the Negro people have been for months giving veneham utterances against Secretary Taft, threatening that if he is nominated they will bolt the ticket and advise others of the race to vote the Democratic ticket. Such individuals should not be taken seriously, they are not leaders, but dreamers, and some of them are without visible means of support. Secretary Taft will be nominated at Chicago by a unanimous vote. Negro delegations will assist in making it unanimous and then take off their coats and help in his election. The few Negro grafting agitators can go where they please.

Mr. Bryan is illogical and either ignores the facts of history or is unfamiliar with them, when he asserts that if the Negroes had the Government they would have been to them. It is a matter of record that in instances where the Negroes ever ruled there was no discrimination in school term, railroad accommodations or housing, but that great humanitarian spirit known to the Republican party. And if they did show a desire to oppress the powerless man is the reason of retaliation worthy. Why Bryan?

If the Memorial Day address of Secretary Taft on General Grant is regarded as a whole and with an eye to its intent, there is no ground whatever for the criticism voiced by our people, and some of the veterans hearers. The Secretary referred to certain weaknesses of Grant's early manhood, to the thinking and his heart, as well as the farming and later business, and it is impossible to make an honest estimate of Grant's career without taking these things into consideration. In Secretary Taft's speech they were used solely to emphasise an eloquent tribute to the Grant of later years, to accelerate the wonders of self-rehabilitation displayed when emergency and duty had called the great soldier to the front and had brought out his hitherto latent powers. In speaking of the criticism of this speech, Secretary Taft says, among other things: "The lives of our great men belong to the country. If facts are told showing that they had weaknesses which they had overcome, the force of the successful management of the loss of life the south of the country up to emulate them than if they are painted as perfect without temptation and without weakness."—Long Branch (N. J.) Echo. The Negro question cropped up at this morning's session of the general conference meeting at the Lyric. It was brought up through a resolution offered by a col-lege delegation. The Griffin, born of Mission San Antonio, designated the delegates all over the country demanded the floor, the only speakers from the contested themselves, with fighting the question from the floor in a parliamentary battle. The whole thing came up when the delegates appointed a commission to secure cooperation with colored Methodist churches and proposed a substitute. The commission proposed for the referring of the question to the commission on federation, and for work to be done by a body of colored church-workers in the South. In asking the coun-try to feel superior because of our contact with you, not because you are white but because of your power, he said, "We feel superior because of our contact with you, not because you are white but because of your power, we feel superior because of our substitute. He said: "I am opposed to making a black division in the church, suit with strictly colored churches will draw the color line. I am opposed to it, I hope the matter will be referred to the committee." - San Francisco Western Outlook There was never a time in the political history of the Negro race that wise and judicious counsel and leadership was needed more than now. So brought up and determined to resent the injustice of the Brownwell affair, many of our people are willing to help. We have been called to the administration and the nation now see that a great wrong was done those faithful and brave soldiers. Hon. J. B. Foraker came to their rescue and to him he gave him the courage to give honor and praise. For this gallant service he sacrificed the friendship of many who were dear to him. He had convictions and was true to them; thus he was called to the retention and respect of the nation. Senator Foraker is a Republican, he may fight the administration and party eligies in his own State, but he will never leave the Republican party. He is a Republican from principle. Many of our people are now ready to leave the Republican folds, and make for the Democratic ranks. They have openly declared that they preferred Tillman to Taft or Roosevelt. They had just as well said they preferred Hades to Paradise. For our part we are going to stay on the Republican side of the fence. We are going to stay there and contend for what we believe to be our rights. We are Republicans because the principles of that party are best for the race. Those who desire us to vote the Democratic ticket and thereby increase the power of such men as Tillman, Vardaman, Davis and many others condemned to the administration for acting hastily in dealing with the soldiers and now they ask us to commit a blunder equally as bad or worse. The Republican party has done more for us than the Democratic party. The Democratic party has told us they do not want our vote, and not a eliminated us also. In our insti­ nstitute resentment, we should not leave the party on account of a few hot-headed designing Southern Democrats. We must remem­ ber that they are only a minority of the great party that represents this nation throughout the world. They may not give us all that is due us. But let us remain loyal and contend for our interests. We must remember that Wendell Phillip, William Lloyd Garrison, J. H. Foraker and many others whose voice may no have been heard in our time will come to the front in our in­ trusts are well pleased with the outlook to town, Lynchburg ( Va ) American Tumpet. From time to time some white voter, a Democratic politician, asks us why the Democratic and intelligent Negro voter does not divide his vote between the various political par­ties that afflict the American body politi- The white voter who asks such a question is usually a man of some intelligence himself, and more or less liberal than most of his political conferences on the subject of the Negro suffrage. The question is a natural one in view of the fact that for forty years the American Negro has uniformly voted the Republican ticket in most cases without hope of favor or reward, and still elinge to that party at a time when many white Republicans of the nation, especially in the South, would be glad if there were less Negrines in the Republican party. The Negro Americans are as set a primitive people and somewhat childlike in many respect, which is to their credit, rather, as a similic, innocence, and are largely governed by feelings and emotions. Thus a prejudice comes among them against an individual. Any sort of individual is hardly to be moved by the amount of reasoning, however phasible, and only concrete acts can have any effect whatever in removing or modifying such a prejudice. In this they are not alone, for they themselves complain that whites are not susceptible to reason when a question of color-prejudice is involved. Now, in the American Negro mind, the Democratic party is, and always is, the most powerful and most powerful of the men of the Negro nation, and women also, this party stands for quintessence, compassion and devotion. Historically, their this is correct. The very heart of the Democratic party is the white man, regardless of his past. All legislation in the United States wherein the American Negro is involved, the Negro have to be the agent of the Democratic party, by its unqualified opposition, to everything which would mark an admission to the principle of the American Negro, but that the Democratic party sought the Negro vote as a party, at no time have the leaders of that party, either North or South, been traditional policy of hostility to Negro advancement. While at the march of the Democratic ship of state bears the motha that the Negro is not the leader of "the American Negro is well aware that the practice of the Democratic party is just the opposite. The Negro know full well that there are men in the Republic that have the same idea as most Democrats on this question, but the distinction is that such men in the Republican party are small leaders. And the Negro is quick to observe also that the American people, in their other moment, when not awayed by racial feelings, are willing to concede, and the Negro actually claims. That the American people do not permit the Democratic party to direct the government for any length of time, except in the caste-ridden States of the South, and he is thus fortified in his prejudices against that Democratic party, and in his policies that the Democratic party does a really great leader, he is always broad-minded enough to concede American rights to Negroes to example with whites as governor of New York and as President of the United States, as well as in his private life as a citizen, but that Democratic party and so much so that they approximate more nearly the Republican type than otherwise, in respect to the Negro's negative suffix. The aim of the Democratic policy seems to be the immediate advantage of the white race over all the blacks of the individual; the aim of the Democratic party is the ultimate advantage of the human race, both as individuals and as a community. This last ideal is the basis of the American political party and without its adoption as a working basis of American politics, the success of the American experiment in self-government must remain very largely obedient. Many intelligent Negro Americans desire that party lines be not anonymous and more massive such an alignment gives the enemies of the race, and that it is not in with the Democratic party, but with the Democratic party to remove the first question from politics by declaring for the rights of all men, instead of Tacoma (Wash.) Sunday Morning Echo. DIRECT ELECTION OF SENATORS. Why a South Carolinian Opponent Out of Mr. Reyna's Policies. "From the New York Independent.) The following confession of sin might be the good for the shriven soul. Mr. Ripley, the governor of New York, sent Senators by the direct vote of the people. There is no franker or abler paper in the South than the News and Courier, of Charleston, S. C., and it is interesting to read its objections to the plan. Like nearly everything in the politics of the section is runs back to the Negro. It would be better to trust a legislature properly gerrymander. It admits a Republican vote of 15,000 in the State, which might be in the hands of high rank as candidate for the Senatorship declaring that he is a State Democrat, and a Republican (therefore a) claiming a lands of Democrats, who, but for the Negro question, would be Republicans, to be a Republican in the hands of Republican politics; and it adds, "He would have 15,000) Negroes voting solidly with him to start with and the Negro question, because the Selection machinery would be in the hands of the Federal authorities." "They would be counted." The "Federal authorities" would secure an honest election under a Federal law. So we read: "Our, banker, or manufacturer candidate, would secure it, would want it. They would have their vote." That is enlightening. Then we are told that the hill counties, all white, would vote solidly for such a candidate. He might be elected under the plan for the direct vote for senators that seemed to him all right, that people should rule, but it does not so seem to the writer. He tells us how the will of the people can be charted: "It is always possible, and in our judg men right and wise, to so gerrymander the disliked that two-thirds of the Negro voters will be included in two districts without surrendering them to the Republican party." This is the first shameless defense of a gerrymander that we have ever met. Our contemporary admits that the one party system is in some respects most统称着 "the most rich progress and college-independent thought" but no long as there is a heavy, Negro population there must be but one party, and anything that endangers it must be opposed and the election of Senators must be in the legislature because the rich white counties can, by false counting or stumming, hold control of the legal history for a long period than the omn. of the qualified voters under an honest count. Such a confession requires penance. Mr. Henry F. Taylor Mr. Henry T.

Some of our "Knickerbockerites" may recall benefits where the attendance has been as large, even a little larger, but the Aida Overton Walker benefit for the Industrial Home for Colored Working Girls will remain in the minds of those present for some time to come as a monument for pluck, energy and success. Not only was the affair a success so far as attendance; but never has such a well-balanced vaudeville program been presented by colored artists at a benefit. On the bill were our leading comedians, dancers, singers and soubrettes. Some of our best chorus girls cavorted about the stage in singing and dancing numbers with young business men who had consented to participate in the entertainment not on account of their great love for the stage, but because they were promoted by the same spirit that situated Aida, Overton Walker. After something is given and it proves a big success it is always in order to praise the promoter or promoters. That is human nature. It is also human nature to find fault with the promoter or promoters if the affair ends in a failure. As the benefit was a success laudations are in order, and when we think how hard Aida Overton Walker worked and the financial obligations she assumed there should be no stint to the praise meted out. Perhaps but few know that to give the entertainment last week Aida Overton Walker assumed financial obligations amounting to nearly $600. It requires no little nerve to risk that amount of money on an entertainment where there is no certainity of it being a success, and which would mean a serious drain on the exchequer should the event be a failure. It is doubtful if many of those present were aware that for three weeks Aida Overton Walker had been rehearsing the numbers for the entertainment day and night. Sunday's included. Hard work usually begets good results. That is the reason the program was the best ever presented at an entertainment given for charity. Aside from the large attendance and the A1 program, there was another noticeable feature during the evening that will tend to make the event memorable. It was the first time in the history of the stage that the performer and the patron greeted each other with what might be termed a fraternal feeling. Hereofore the performer has been regarded by many in the same light off the stage as on—something to stand off and look at. Unfortunately, quite a number of us form our opinion of a performer by the character he plays on the stage. We do not know that off the stage he is another character—his real self, an ordinary person. Wednesday evening last it was noticeable that the performer and the patron met in social converse and viewed each other with friendly interest. Each seemed to wake up to the fact that the other was human, and that the only difference was that one pursued a vocation that made it necessary for him to appear before the public in a character other than himself, while the other could be his true self during his daily toil. There are so many reasons why the performer and the public should learn more of each other. In the profession there are many intelligent and cultured men and women who are doing much to solve the so-called race problem. It can not be denied that the stage to-day is doing great work in the cause of the colored man. "Bandanna Land," the "Sho-Fly Reciment," the "Oyster Man" and the "Black Politician" are all helping to solve a racial question. Each has a different method, 'tis true, but they all tend to the same result. It behooves us all to get together, irrespective of our, vocation, and advance the interest of the race, which can be much better accomplished by united effort than division. Therefore, it is gratifying to refer to the Aida Overton Walker benefit on which occasion the performer and the public were introduced to each other—not formally, but informally. Those who were not present have been told by this time by their friends that Grand Central Palace was crowded, and that between 3,500 to 4,000 persons were present. They have also heard that people came from Philadelphia, the Oranges, Newark, Jersey City, Brooklyn and adjacent cities—Hoboken included. It was not only a well-dressed audience but also a fashion-dressed one that filled every box and every seat in the hall, making it necessary for the management to provide for an overflow. Judging from the beautiful costumes worn, Messrs. Macy, Altman, Lord and Taylor, Wanamaker and Abraham and Strauss (the later from "Brooklynville") would like to see a big benefit given weekly. For, after all, they are the ones who reap the greatest profit when such entertainments are given. For we must have new clothes on all such occasions. The program was such an excellent one that in referring to it one could say there was not a dull number during the evening—then stop. The performers seemed to try their best to please, and the audience was very appreciative and heartily applauded each number. The best staged number during the evening was that rendered by Aida Overton Walker, assisted by Misses Jean Wilson, Brown, Rogers, Davis Bush, Martin, Jones, Ward, Thomas, Day, Gee Vaughan, Clough, Jordan, Bluford, Ellis and Fowler, who represented the jasmine, honeysuckle, violet, rose, buttercup, lilies of the valley and garland respectively. The title of the song was "Jasmine." in which Aida Overton Walker appeared in male attire. The manner in which the number was staged shows that the singer is ambitious, and intends to appear in the Williams and Walker show in the near future in roles that have never been attempted by her before. If her debut in male attire was an experiential it was like the benefit, a success. After the overture by Prof. Walter H. Craig's orchestra, twelve young ladies of the Williams and Walker Company appeared in a medley of songs, singing "Miss Hannah from Savannah," "Actor's Lady," "Rich Coon's Babe," "Why Adam Sinned," "The Island of Tye and Bye," "I'll Keep a Warm Spot," "Sweetie Dear," "It's Hard to Lose Somebody" and "Sue Simmons." As all of the young ladies are good singers it is needless to state that they were well received. While Aida Overton Walker made a hit with her song, "I Want You for My Own," the audience was captivated by little Ada Vaughan, who appeared on the stage an Aida Overton Walker in miniature. She, too, sang the song, and later gave an imitation of George W. Walker singing "Bon Bon Buddy." She was the cutest performer on the program, and was assisted by Ford Dabney, pianist. Cook and Stevens appeared in a sketch called the "Chinese and the Coon," which was very funny. They closed their act with a song. They were followed by R. Henri Sfrange, who recited "The Colored Soldier." Although the acoustic properties THE STATUE OF MARY CATHERINE ARE NOT OF the best at Grand Central Palace, Mr. Strange was heard to an advantage. Next on the program appeared the "Bon Ban Buddy" Double Sextette. Misses Maggie Davis, Ida Day, Kathlyn Jones, Bessie Vaughan, Jessie Ellis and Lainia Rogers were accompanied by Messrs M. Housley, Charles H. Hall, Herbert Sutton, Erskine Bell, William Moulton and Frank Bain. They did a neat song and dance, in fact the number reminded one of a Broadway production number. Abbie Mitchell Cook has appeared before the public in little "coon ditties" love songs and ballads, but last Wednesday evening she surprised her hearers by singing a classical selection, which demonstrated that she is not only a versatile little singer, but that she is ambitious to some day sing in serious roles. Few knew that the sweet singer had such magnificent control of her voice. Of all our young comedians Harrison Stewart, until recently comedian at the Pekin Theatre, Chicago, is the most promising. It is likely that he will star in a musical comedy the coming season. He sang two songs in his characteristic style, "Take Your Time," and "Hand Me Mine Right Now." Henry Troy was in good voice and sang a song about "Dixieland," a much better number than he had on Broadway. The audience liked the song and its rendition immensely. After a song and dance by Misses Martin, Rogers, Ellis, Day, Fowler, Jones, Vaughan and Davis, which went good, the audience was given a musical treat—"The Slave Ship," which, during the first part of the season was sung in "Bandanna Land," but was taken off before the company reached New York. J. F. Mores did the principal solo work. As had been said before by the writer, he is the best dramatic baritone in the business. He was assisted by J. Adolphus Haston and other well known singers. Williams and Walker appeared in the hall at 9 o'clock to sing several songs, but as the program had not commenced they were forced to return to the Colonial Theatre where they were playing. On their return they found that, the performance, was over and that the people were dancing. As they had promised to appear at the benefit they had the management stop the dancing, and Bert Williams sank, minus cork, "The Right House but the, Wrong Pew," while George Walker sang "Bon Bon Buddy." Of course the reception they received was as of old—hearty and enthusiastic. Thus ended the program. But before concluding praise should be given D. E. Tobias, who had the active business management of the benefit in hand, and who did much to get the people out so that Aida Overton Walker could entertain them. Jack Nail, who acted as master of ceremonies, and R. C. McPherson, who was general manager, also rendered valuable service. Robert Braddox. Elizie Elmendorf. Benny Berry, Royal Rutledge and Frank Sinclair did themselves proud as ushers. Mesdames Bert A. Williams, Hat- tie McIntosh, Misses Grace E. Nail and Helen Stevens, who were in the flower booth, and Mesdemes Alice Canfield, Nettie Black, Misses Odeon Warren, Lillian Marshall and Wille Starks as program ladies also deserve mention. As was said in the beginning, the Aida Overton Walker benefit will remain for a long time to come a monument for pluck, energy and success. Colored Stock Company for Newark. NEWARK.

Two Hundred Actors Stranded in Providence. PROVIDENCE, R. I., June 9—Over 200 performers are stranded here on account of the failure of the "Fall of Babylon" a spectacular production. The show was forced to close Saturday night as the people of Providence didn't attend in large numbers as had been anticipated. The majority of actors are without a cost and one for a week's board. Landlords have seized their trunks, and in some instances have turned the owners out in the streets. The "Fall of Babylon" was being produced at Vanity Fair Park. The park people say they did not hire the actors and refuse to pay for their transportation to New York. Mr. and Mrs. Burleigh Fooled the Fish. THE AGE is in receipt of a communication from Harry T. Burleigh, who sailed for Europe several days ago accompanied by his wife, which read as follows: "All fish in fine trip over. Fooled the fish after all." The message was sent from Liverpool. Mr. Burleigh expects to sing before King Edward, and will be introduced by the American Ambassador, Whiteclaw Reid, who has heard the baritone sing. The Americanization of Milwaukee. Lack of patronage of the German theater in Milwaukee is instanced as proof of the Americanization of that city of strong Teutonic influence. The abandonment of the mother tongue was invariant in Milwaukee it has been born in Milwaukee than in St. Louis, Cincinnati and other cities of large German population. The fact is of interest in connection with the recent statement by the American Israelite that "the fight for the preservation of Yiddish in the homes and synagogues made by recent immigrants is reminiscent of a similar struggle in behalf of German carried on forty or fifty years ago. Finally German was eliminated and Yiddish will in due time shatter the fate". A people driven to enforced exile is apt to cling with sentimental affection to its language. The tenacity with which the Spanish Jews who took refuge in the cities of Eastern Europe held to their language was a case in point. But this consideration is not felt by the voluntary exile. A striking example of the adoption of the language of the new country by immigrants is witnessed in the Argentine Republic, where English settlers are now fast accepting Spanish. The Americanization of German immigrants is indicated by the fact that from 1821 to 1900 Germany sent us 5,262,620 new citizens, approximately six times the population of Connecticut.—N. Y. World. While German and Yiddish theaters will soon be a thing of the past because of their un-Americanism, it is pleasing to note that theatrical managers contemplate expending thousands of dollars with a view to establishing Negro theaters in our large cities. It only goes to show that the Negro is in every way an American and must be regarded as such in the future.—Editor's Note. L'bladclap L'ickung Manager L. Gidion, late of a stock company of his own, has left Philadelphia for Baltimore. The scribe has for ten days been unable to locate him. Mrs. Fannie Allen, late of the Smart Set, is here making friends. Tom Logan slipped in on us last Tuesday and was off to New York city before the scribe could even get an old-time hand shake. Will Ramsey passed through last week enroute to Boston to join Comerford's Summer show. Will will be found with the Smart Set this season. George Day came up from his summer vacation at Atlantic City to strengthen the Giboon company for two weeks, but was unable to work that long.

Bob Russell: while somewhat dispointed at the unexpected closing of the "trick," has lost none of his old-time ability to hustle, and will on his feet again. Billy Moore, the tenor singer, seems to be on easy street. Ora Criwell Henry is just barely on deck. Erving Allen came all the way from Chater to find out what was going on in the show business here, and now he is willing to return. S. H. Dudley and his mule made up their minds that there was no place like home, so they suited action to words: Slim Henderson has gained a lot of weight since leaving Chicago but is liable to lose it here in this town. Perrin and Crosby seem happy and contented. Three cheers for Sld! Clarence Logan, the manager and promoter, is here still trying to manage so he can promote. He is welcome to whisper to him. Walter Crumbley is not worried, but it is a hard matter to get Walter off his pins anyhow. Nettle Glenn tells me that she isn't bothered yet, so does Marie Lucas and Marion Potter. I guess they know what they are talking about. There was a party here named L. Williams, but she has gone. She has gone, but it seems that she cannot afford to get far from Atlantic City for some time at least. I haven't seen Barton for several days. Why? Mrs. S. H. Dudley was visiting friends in this city last week, and incidentally informed us that she, was going to spend the summer months at Chicago.
