VOL. XXII. No. 33. Held in the Interest Negro Education a Success. Speak and Make Strong Plea for Education of the Negro in the Southern States. Very Likely that Similar Mothage Will be Held in Other Large Cities of the South in Near Future. BUMINGRAM, Ala., May 18—Owing to the great success of the big mass meeting held recently in this city in the interest of Negro education, which was attended by prominent men of both races, it is likely that similar meetings will be held in other cities of the South. The meeting held in Birmingham a few evenings ago was a success from every standpoint. The first floor of the theatre was turned over to the white citizens and the two upper floors were used by the Negro citizens. The great interest manifested can be judged when the management found it necessary to turn away a large number. All the speakers, regardless of racial identity, spoke of education for the Negro, and voiced sentiments in accord with the accepted policy of the South in trying to help the Negro help himself. The meeting is regarded as one of the most significant ever held in Birmingham. Addresses were delivered by Belton Gilreth, who presided; Dr. J. H. McCoy, president of the Birmingham College; the Rev. C. M. Well, D. D., secretary Alabama Baptist-Sunday School Convention; Dr. W. R. Pettiford, bank; Judge N. B. Feagin, Dr. George William Walker, president of Paine College, Augusta, and Dr. James A. Hay, president of the Miles Memorial College among others present on the event. Rev. Father Denis and Rabi Newfield. More Education Represents Best Thought of South. Dr. McCoy delivered a stirring address, defining very minutely the position of the South with reference to Negro education. He said that whatever may be said of the South, the fact remained that at no time has any Southern State discriminated against the Negro in the distribution of its school funds. He expressed sympathy for the brittle of industrial education for the Negro, but declared that he was in no way colored man all that he was able to receive and use. "Education is both qualitative and quantitative" said he, "and a man is neither nor worse by being able to add a column of figures. Perhaps one man in 1,000 is hurt by an education, and an intellect is no more than a tool in the hands of the man who uses it. "The worst curse that can fall upon the black man is not that he is educated too highly, but that he may not receive the highest moral and spiritual culture. I am glad the South made the appropriations for Negro education when it did, withstanding it was impoverished and had two loads to carry where it had formerly had one, but I feel that we began at the wrong end. We will not do the work for what ought to be done, you will not do it for your duties until more attention is given to men and women to teach the race to the young people to race, these are important in the life of a people. You will then have better home life. I have scant patience with those people who declaim against giving our people an education. It is worth while to deal with their notions, for they do not represent the best insight of the South." Judge N B Feagin made an address of advice to the Negroes, particularly laying stress upon the tendency to bring about by habitation in the large cities. He stated that the tendency to come to the congested centers was similar to no people, but that in flocking to the cities the Negro people meet with conditions that tend to degrade them. He declared that in all cities certain individual rights had to be yielded, that it was when the individual was allowed to yield these rights that he was led to crime. He explained the fact that it was the purpose of the penal institutions to give criminals physical training,浇 out the animalism, culturing the brain power and transforming the crime to a being with reasonable way. Practices of Progress Among the Negroes. Dr W R Petittford, president of the Alabama Penns Savings bank, and one of the most prominent Negroes in the town spoke at length upon "Some Evilness of Progress Among the Negroes" He emphasized the fact that the lives to lay in a better class of students is using his education in useful skills and that the educated Negroes found in the jails and court. In this connection the speaker I now want to find the educated Ned and the evidences of his progress among the young men and women are learning useful occupations; the 200 farms owned by Negroes are 4,000 homes built of their own step into the 60 banks established by themselves, and the 10,000 stores; locate the owners of the $650, 000,000 taxable property; visit some of the 28,000 public schools with 28,000 teachers, and the 178 industrial schools and colleges. "It is not larger jails and the increase of policemen and deputy sheriffs we need, because the policeman's clubs and the warrants of the deputies constitute an agency for only temporary reform. The reduction of the number of our inmates to the number of peace and a better life, and embling them to become contributors to civilization instead of recipients of its advantages only, is the work of education." Bishop Elias Cottrell of Holly Springs, Miss, one of the strongest and most prominent Negro churchmen in the South, delivered a forceful address, touching the white man's duty to the Negro. Bishop Cottrell stated in the beginning that he had no malice against any man, and was without prejudice of race. Bishop could that there was much that the Negro could do to benefit the South, but pleaded with the white members of the audience to see how much benefit they could be to the Negroes around them. Work the Methodist Episcopal Church. Rev. Dr. George W. Walker, president of Paine College, the institution maintained at Augusta, Ga., by the Methodist Episcopal church, South, for the education of Negro youth, spoke at length of the educational efforts made for the colored people by that organization. He stated that the fathers brought religion to the slaves long before freedom. That in the Methodist Episcopal church, such these were the 20,000 members among the slaves, and that South Carolina and Alabama conferences each contributed large amounts of money to carry the gospel to the slaves. He detailed the organization of the colored Methodist Episcopal church from his membership, and stated that for 25 years he had been laboring at Paine College in order to help train teachers and preachers for the Negro people. Dr. Walker took considerable pains to inform the audience of his ancestry and to assure them that he was not looking for a job. "I want you to understand" he exclaimed, "that a Southern white man who prayed with the slaves, and whose father was a slaveholder, has given his life to do for the Negro race what he would have any one do for any other race." Dr. Bray in making the concluding speech was short but vigorous. Owing to the lateness of the hour he condensed into four or five minutes some practical, wholesome thoughts that might have been amplified in an evening's discussion. He stressed character as the true foundation of education, the white citizenship of Birmingham that the doctrine of good character as the underlying basis of education was preached from pulpit and the school room, and in the lodge meetings. POSTMASTER FIGHT AT FLORENCE Remains the Same—Postmaster Wilson Still in Charge—Business Men for Him Special to The New York Aur. FLORENCE, S. C., May 19—There is no change in the postoffice situation here Postmaster Joshua E. Wilson continues to hold office despite the fact that a fight is being made against him by a few Democratic politicians who are anxious to have a Democrat appointed to the place. The Democrats will not be appeased should President Taft appoint a white Republican to the position. They want a Democrat to succeed Postmaster Wilson, and are as strongly opposed to the appointment of a white Republican as they are to Postmaster Wilson, if not more so. Three-fourths of the business men of Florence have petitioned to the President to reappoint Postmaster Wilson who is identified with the commercial interests of the city, and who has been connected with the postoffice for twenty eight years. There is the present postmaster credit of having raised the postoffice from a compensation of $150 per annum, when he took charge in 1876 to a salary of $2,300. Florence now has a fine postoffice building costing $100,000. There are five colored clerks in the postoffice who would likely lose their jobs in the event of the appointment of any other person except the present incumbent SIX NEGROES LYNCHED. In Less Than Six Daysa Record Held By Southern Community. TYLER, Texas, May 15.—Six Negroes lynched in less than six days and not one of them has been found guilty of the crimes charged against them is the record this locality has to offer to the public as an evidence of the progress it is making in the civilized world. In this city a few days ago in the new Court House being constructed, a Negro was lynched whose guilt has never been established. He was accused of criminally assaulting a young white woman who refused to state positively whether he was the right man. About eighty miles from Marshall at least five Negroes have been lynched in the last few days, being accused of murdering a white town star. Tyler and Marshall are considered two educational centers of the Southwest. In Tyler is Phillip's University, one of the leading schools of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church; also the East Texan Academy of the Baptist Church. In Marshall the Wiley University, Bishop College and other well known institutions. The Negro citizens of Tyler have formed a law and order league and will seek to do all in their power to promote the welfare of the race and keep down all race outbreaks. Preparity of Negroes' Bank RICHMOND, May 17—Four Richmond banks operated by and for colored people have reported to the State Corporation Commission a volume of business of $738,811.

Always brings results --- Sustained in its Decision Awarding Estelle Green $100 Damages Against Sight Seeing Company An important decision, so far as the Negro citizens of Greater New York are concerned, was handed down last week when the Appellate Term of the Supreme Court affirmed a judgment for $100 which Estelle Green, colored, recovered several weeks ago in the Third Municipal Court against Orville A. Dickenson, doing business under the name of the Green Car Sight Seeing Company. The Appellate Term affirmed the judgment of the lower court in favor of the plaintiff without writing an opinion. Lawyers in the city have regarded the case as being a very important one, and there is a possibility of the case being carried by the defendant to the last resort—the Court of Appeals. According to the petitioner's attorney, Santiago P. Cahill, on September 1, 1907, his client had a ticket which entitled here to see the sights of the city from the defendant's automobile; that she boarded the vehicle at Twenty-third street and rode to Forty-sixth street and Sixth avenue, where a stop was made to take on a number of passengers. She said that previously some of the other passengers objected to riding with her on account of her race and color and that she was induced, when the stop was made, to get down by the agent of the company. She asserted that when the car was about to start again she was forcibly prevented from resuming the seat she had vacated temporarily. Sues Under Equal Rights Act. The plaintiff sued to recover $00 under Section 1, Chapter 1043 of the Laws of 1895, which provides that all persons within the jurisdiction of this State shall be entitled to full and equal rights and privileges of inns, eating houses, bath houses, barber shops, innkeeper's public conveyances, amusement and accommodation, subject only to the conditions and limitations established by law and applicable alike to all citizens. The company denied all the allegations made by the plaintiff. Donald Leighton of Walton, Delaware county, New York, testified that he was in the city that he knew Estelle Green, and on August 28, 1907, pur- chased three threeside. He testified that plaintiff on the with a Mrs. Zoe heard some person that they would like He asserted that made the conduct after five to told him down.

She testified that she had the maid again to get on the bed and asserted that the conductor sat down. Not on this car, because she is blind and cannot ride with these people, and Leighton continued on the car without the maid. The company contended that the car in question had been used for and by a private party and that the plaintiff was permitted to sit on either through mistake or to suffer the sufferance of the members of each party. Mr. Cahill challenged the truth of this statement and asserted that there was not a schmidt's presence in the whole case from which a state of facts could be inferred. It was asserted that there was a law violation because the owner of the property to pass a law regulating motion and providing for aggrandement.

C., May 19.—One of the principal topics being discussed here is the incident last week in which Register of the Treasury W. T. Vernon and five Southern Congressmen figured. The citizens are also commenting on the stand taken by Register Vernon, who is reported to have expressed himself as being greatly distressed because of the incident, and to have declared in an interview that he was sorry he had been the cause of any trouble, and that had he known he would have created any controversy by eating in the dining room of the House Office Building he would not have done so. The majority of Negro citizens at the capital feel that such remarks should not have been made by a representative of the race, one holding a high official position and who is regarded as one of the leading Negroes in the United States. Since the affair several Southern Congressmen have called on Speaker Cannon and protested against Negroes eating in the dining room of the House Office Building. It is hardly likely that Speaker Cannon will adopt any radical steps, as there is nothing to prevent Negroes from eating in the dining room in question. Last Friday Register Vernon, accompanied by a friend, dropped into the office building dining room for luncheon. Several Southern members of Congress were present, and had already ordered their meals and were eating. As soon as they saw Register Vernon, they began to gather and Died of hunger. The Cannon and Caddie were required to have stopped eating and hardly left the dining room in an angry mood, seeing visions of the old chestnut—"social equality." Congressman Stanley later came into the room, and inquired of Manager Coffin what the Negroes were doing in the place. Upon being told that one was the Register of the Treasury he is said to have responded: "I don't care who he is; that does not change his color. You may cancel my order and also walked out of the place." Register Vernon did not know anything of the trouble until after he and his friend had finished their luncheon. It was later that he told the newspaper men that he was distressed because his presence excited the five Southern Congressmen. LEXINGTON, Ky., May 17.—Two men who went last week to Shelby County from Louisville to inspect the site of the proposed $400,000 Lincoln Institute for Negroes received a tangle of switches and a hemp rope, together with a warning. There has been much objection from people in the section to having the Negro school located there, although it has been stipulated that students will be kept on their own reservation and that they will have their own railroad station and postoffice. Night ride have warned Negroes employed at Bentonville near Frankfort, to leave in forty-eight hour. Detectives are at work on the case. The Negro at Benton have appealed to Adjit-Gen Johnson, who guarantees them protection. White Firemen and Enginemen Object to Discrimination in Favor of Negroes. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE ATLANTA, GA. May 15.—All the white firemen and enginemen employed on the Georgia Railroad have given notice that they will strike to-morrow night at 8 o'clock unless the road recedes from alleged discrimination in favor of Negro firemen. Replying to this notice, General Manager Scott says that the road will stand by the Negro employees, and so it is a certainty that the strike will take place. All the white firemen and enginemen are members of the Firemen's Brotherhood, and Eugene A. Bull of Toronto, second vice-president, has been here three weeks vainly trying to get the Georgia road to yield to the men. The brotherhood is backing the strike. The brotherhood men allege that white men have been dropped to give places to Negroes and that the Negroes receive better treatment than white men. The brotherhood is really fighting to get rid of Negroes. The Georgia Railroad is controlled by the Louisville and Nashville, and it is said the strike may spread through the entire system and involve the locomotive engineers. SERVES 18 YEARS IN PRISON. For Crime Commissioners, White Man Who Has Conducted the Gun. ATLANTA, May 16.—After serving eighteen years in the Georgia penitentiary for a murder which he did not commit James Richardson, a Negro, is to be pardoned by Gov. Hoke Smith as the result of the confession of a dying white man. The Negro was convicted on filisay evidence of killing a white man named Smith in Bolton near Atlanta. Two days ago, just before he died, a citizen of Bolton whose name is concealed confessed that the killed the man for whose death the Negro was convicted. This man said the killing was accidental, but he was afraid to fess. He said he had been miserable for eighteen years at the thought of an innocent Negro being in the penitentiary and requested Gov. Hoke Smith to grant a pardon. NATIONAL TEACHERS. ASSOCIATION To Meet in Asheville, N. C., Next Month — Over One Thousand Will Attend. Special to The New York Age. ASHEVILLE, N.

Of Legislature Being Held to Assist Board in its Study of Conditions of Republic. Over Arrival of Americans—Every Member of Commission in Good Health—Accessed Every Courtesy. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 17.—The members of the Liberian Commission arrived at Monrovia on board the scout cruiser Chester, May 8. They were given a hearty welcome, and are being treated with marked deference by the people of Monrovia. On Monday, May 10, the interchange of visits with Liberian officials took place, and everything was done by the heads of the Liberian Government to show to the Americans that their visit was one of great importance and highly appreciated. The Liberian Commission has already begun its work, and Minister Lyons has made provisions for all the requirements of the commissioners and the attaches. In order to assist the representatives in order to special session of the Legislature has been called, which convened last week to assist the commissioners in their work. The Chester made eighteen knots an hour on her trip across the Atlantic. She left New York on April 25. The numbers of the commission are Roland Post Falkner, of Philadelphia, formerly Commissioner of Education in Puerto Rico; Emmet J. Scott, secretary of Tuskegee Institute, and Dr. George Salo, superintendent of the Baptist Missionary Schools in Puerto Rico and Cuba. They are all in good health. --- Monrovia went wild over the arrival of the Americans. Before the arrival had been announced the local authorities announced the coming as the commission by the long roll of a drum and the people of Monrovia hastily commanding points to see the glad sight of the American flag in the harbor. Captain Henry B. Wilson, of the Chester, sent an officer to pay his respects to Ernest Lyon, the American Minister resident and Consult General, who waived diplomatic etiquette and went immediately on board the Chester to confer with the commission. Monrovia spent Saturday afternoon in convincing the Americans of their welcome. All the stores in town were closed and a general holiday prevailed. The commissioners were met at the landing by the Mayor and councilmen with an address of welcome in which the day was described as a critical stage in American history. The Americans were the second to the American legislation by the military and the delegation of women. They were received generally with special honors never recorded here, except at Presidential inaugurations. The enthusiasm everywhere was great. "The great day of the Lord has come," is the sentiment of the people. INTERMARRIAGE OF RACES Discussed by Prof Charles Zueblin, Who Aventes Admirture of Rossen. Prof Charles Zueblin, of Chicago, spoke last Sunday morning on "Social Unrest" at the Free Synagogue, in which he urged intermarriage for the Jew, and also discussed the Negro question. Conflict of the races was named by Prof Zueblin as one of the great sources of unrest to-day "History," he said, "reveals that the race that has survived has been the mixed race. Strength comes from mixture. I know, most of you will not agree with me, but I believe in the mixing of the Jew, and the non-Jew blood. The mixture will retain the best traits of both and the general result will be for the common racial good. "When any body of people, no matter how pure their blood, insist on maintaining their integrity there will be racial friction contributing to unrest and discontent. If the Jew looks with contempt upon people, he will reap reciprocity. When any of the great races get near enough together to mix advantageously this mixture is to be desired." Discussing the Negro question, Prof. Zueblin said: It should be mentioned that we have a fair chance now because the white race looks abhorently upon mixture. There is doubt of the necessity of segregation, but the conditions contribute to much social unrest. We might give the Negro some portion of the country, say South Carolina or Mississippi, but there would be difficulty in perfecting such a plan through the Legislatures".

More than 12,000 young men and women have been in one way or another helped by the institution "Graduates and undergraduates are working as preachers, teachers and laborers in the West and West Africa, South America, the West Indies, and the various States of the Union. "Morris Brown College encourages self-help; so true is this that the best white citizens of Atlanta feel it their duty to aid and encourage it in possible the work I cannot be done by the institution. I cannot in detail tell you how the metropolitan newspaper, capitalists, business men, bankers and others have aided the school in the last twelve years. The present population and constructive work population is due large to top Henry M. Turp, whose twelve years the chancellor, and who has spared no pains in doing everything that would make the school a credit, not only to those in authority and the community, but to the entire Negro race. In truth, many of the present ministers throughout the country helped to strengthen Morris Brown College. "Notwithstanding past achievements, there is much to be done to put the plant on a firm basis and to get such results as will enable the hundreds who ask to enter daily to do so. The initiation is in the very heart of the South, and is needed. We could have 2,500 as easily as 1,000. If accommodations could be secured, then we would be prepared for the few, that must act as leaders and instructors. "The time is here when more attention should be paid to the things that encourage and help raise their children, things that bind and binder. Charity skill in work properly secured and earthly possessions win for every one an equally balanced mind. Our seetaking on new life is not a question, and the work must be prepared for it the time will be the losers. "Morris Brown College has long since seen the need of practical Christian training for the masses of our boys and girls who must have those essentials that will make of them good men and women. And since all persons are not equally capacitated, we realize the day laborer should be prepared for his work as all other persons who do the work of the man or woman in the country to-day but who sees the necessity of fitting the youth of every community to do some one thing honorably and well it is sheer folly to increase a capacity to expand that which it cannot earn. Endangers goodness, purity, and long life of any people who are just beginning life in such conditions; therefore it is the duty of the schools and churches among us to-day to get close together. "Mr Carnegie promises to give us $12,500 when Morris Brown College raises a stated sum. A girls' model home and a laundry are very much needed to aid in the work and accommodation of promising young men that are diamonds in the world waiting a polisher. For you and me to say whether or not their case should be nicely placed at the bar of those who are in position to aid and encourage or shall they be permitted to grow up like uncultivated weeds in a field? One hundred scholarships of $56 each would help 200 young persons who could, and would be a blessing to our race. What can you do about the matter? We realize the seriousness of the condition, or the necessity of ourselves cause us to be indifferent to the splendid opportunities, much of which is given by others. "Our race has made and is now making progress, and that progress is not without evident than in communities in big South. The insurance company must be able to character building, and a practical home life, a love for honest work and a cultivation of friendly relation in the community where we live. Harsh criticism on the part of white or colored men, except founded upon the truth and the good will, will not dislike all colored people who dislike all colored people any more than all colored people dislike all white people. I do not believe that the New world is concerned rests at Washington City or in the legal status of States, in the capacity to win even examples as friends by worth and character." Dr R. S McArthur, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church, will preside at a meeting in Carnegie Hall, Sunday, at the interest of Morris River College.

On last Tuesday evening the program of the bazaar was a debate, "Resolved, That money has more influence than education," said Rush A. M. E. Church, ally represented the affirmative, and the negative was equally well defended by Rev. Johnson Church. After much deliberation the debate was decided in favor of the affirmative. The committee is to be commanded for their noble work as far as they have been able, a success. Rev. A. O. Norton is pastor. To those people who doubt the ability of the Negro as a builder or skilled worker it would be worth while for some of them to come to Harvard and Portland streets, Cambridge, and see a four-story brick building being erected by Negroes. Mr. Louis Baldwin, the co-founder of the Negro correspondent went in person to see this unheard of thing, so far as Greater Boston is concerned, and there he found six bribe masons four helpers and mortar pendants who are to do the woodwork. All are Negroes. This is a true example of what the Negro can do if given the chance, and Mr. Baldwin is to be employed his own people when possible. Mr Joo. T. Harrison, secretary of the (Cambridge Men's) Forum and correspondent addressed the Cambridge Lyceum last Wednesday evening on the "Progress of the American Negro, and many points of discussion which followed. It was observed that the Negroes of this community had no knowledge of their people. They know of the "Potato King" of Kansas, or of Chestnut, the writer, or of Woods, the elephant, the lion, the mamen don't know that these men are of their own race.

May 18—The Bishop Baptist Church of this city having outgrown its present quarters, plans are being made for the building of a new church at Williams street, on Albany avenue, has been secured, and building operations will be begun within a year. A little over four years ago the church organization it had but sixty members and the attendance at the services was so poor that the plan of selling the church building, at at least $200,000, costing $400,000 which had been built about eight years previous, was talked of. Just about this time Rev William A. Harried took charge of affairs since the church was at the present time the membership is 412. The property bought is known as Nos. 330 and 338 Albany avenue, and is 67 feet wide and 30 feet long. The meet block is located on it at present.

The price paid for the property was $7,000. While the plans for the building are still under consideration that the building is to be of brick with a stone front, and probably will cost in the neighborhood of $30,000.

BALTIMORE, Md., May 18—The regular monthly meeting of the Ministerial Alliance, composed of the clergy of this city and vicinity, took place in Grace and S. B. Crockett presided over the deliberations, and the Rev. L. Z. Johnson was secretary. The meeting was extremely interesting. Mr. B. B. Shreve, chairman of the Alliance, had been invited to be present and open the discussion on the subject of the proposed amendment to the State Constitution. Mr. Shreve did not show up, or appear, at the meeting, nevertheless, by the Rev. Dr. Brigg, and was generally discussed by a number of those present. At the next meeting the same topic will again be discussed at both the Bill and William Collider of the port, and the recognized leader of the Republican party in the city, has been invited to present the discussion of the prospective heads of boards of the leading parties the opportunity to put their respective views before the body. The inertness of the position of the Democrat measure being a moral issue, is established by the failure of their chairman to avail himself of the splendid opportunity of meeting face to face with moral leader of our people in this city. Another very important action of the Alliance was its expression of approval for the establishment of a connection with our Colored School series of resolutions introduced by Rev Harvey Johnson, expressing high appreciation for the work of our students, some of our most deserving and efficient teachers, natives of this community, have been promoted to high position in our curriculum and have been adopted to the education of Prof. Lockerman to the principalship of the High School, as well as the consequent promotion of others, with much pleasure and satisfaction to the community.

I speak of the school not from hear-say, but from actual experience having been a pupil under Prof. C. E. Minotts. Her teaching does not deal in anything like verbiage neither does it deal in the sciences. She is an inexperienced in inquiring into psychic science, but is an esteemed patron of a genuine and scientific psychic curriculum.

DISHOP FRANKLIN DEAD. Popular Prelate Formerly of New York Faid Tributes by Elsa Blabey. The funeral of the late Bishop Marcus R. Franklin, D.D., who died in Atlanta, Ga. last Thursday morning, was held from Mother Zion Church last Monday at W. Alshaw, D.D., S Caldwell, D.D., and A. J. Warner, D.D., officiating and representing the general Church. Bishop Walters acted as the pastor of the church, a plebide eulogy from Bishop J. W. Herd, D.D. LL.D, the senior bishop, who was unable to be present. The services were simply itself, as was tht expressed deservedly in the apostle of the simple life, and hence it was in keeping with his wishes that the last sad rites should be void of all display and ostentation. The music by the Chicago Misa Digas, Mr. Welcome and Mrs. Jackson, of New York, as soloists, was appropriate and well rendered. The floral being banked high with those sweet-scented tributes of love and condolence. Bishop Franklin, who has served the church as pastor, and his home in Brooklyn, was well known and highly esteemed for his magnificent Christian character and manly virtues. He leaves a wife and an adopted son. Interment was in Cypress and an adopted son. Mr. David Brown was undertaker. Bishop Franklin was born just a little over 60 years ago in the South, but when a young man came to Washington, he became a minister in an important church. While still a young man he went to Boston, where he was found by the late Bishop Singleton T. Jones and started ministerial work at an appointment to an important church in North Carolina. His success as a minister of good executive ability was assured from the beginning, and he served as the pastor of the church in the connection. Mother Ivan being his last appointment. He was also presiding elder of the New York conference of the church, the general conference in St. Louis he was in, and immotually elected financial secretary, the most responsible general office in the general church. He made such an admirable decision that the general conference in Philadelphia, last May, he was the first man to be elected bishop out of three successful candidates. Franklin was a man of quiet demeanor, a man of sobriety, upright and honest; he was greatly loved all over the church. The church sustains a great loss in his death, and those who knew him best will always be void and vacant. Philadelphia University, N. J.

The ‘Negro stands, at once, in favor of low schedules, because he 1s so largely a consumer; in favor of high schedules, because he is so largely a laborer in the fields that need protection, because he hhas been the great beneficiary—through philanthropy for his education and bis progress—of the protected interests. ‘AS a consumer of the staple articles, such as wheat, meat and coal, he has suffered sn common with other con- sumers from the tyranny and high prices of the trusts. As the small business man, the Negro has suffered especially during the era of combination, and with other small business men has beer pushed to the wall. Scores of wrecked Negro businesses throughout the North and West, situated a score of years ago fon the main streets of the’ cities, only attest the destruction wrought by the corporation. Therefore no class of peo ple would benefit more largely by the paptnf tariff protection and favoritism Deing taken from the mouths of the trust, than the rising, struggling Negre race. As a producer, as a coming factor in this nation, her industry and her busi ness, no individual's interests is more ‘truly that of the average American thar tthe black man in the need of an equa chance for all. While from so selfis a standpoint as philanthropy for his edu <ation, the Negro need not fear now 8 qauch from a reduction of the tariff tc Jower and fairer schedules, As wa proved by Superintendent Coon at the recent conference in Atlanta, in severa ‘States 6f the South the Negro now pays more in State taxes than he receives tarle-bs the way of State education ‘More than ‘that, the Negro is getting to the place where he may and mus stand more largely on his own legs ‘The Payne bill for a tax on inheritances tea and other luxuries, and a reductior of the duty on steel, hides and pape pulp was almost entirely acceptable t the Negro. As that bill is being changes by the Senate, the Negro, with othe consumers, is not so pleased or favored In 2 word, the Negro needs pro tectlon, and protection beyond that fo revenue only. The Negro also want a reduction of the tariff from the pres ‘ent excessive rates, detrimental to hin and the chances of his childrea, ‘TROUBLE BREEDERS. We note that the little Boston group of uneasy and excitable Negroes have broken out again. This time they are proposing to have some kind of harangue or convention in Columbus, Ohio. There is this fortunate thing in connection with this proposed Columbus meeting, and that is, very few of the Boston brethren will find themselves able to get so far from home, espectally in view of the scarcity of ready cash that surrounds this uneasy Boston contingent. When meetings of the kind are to be held in Faneuil Hall, which by the way can be had practically free of rent, the Boston brethren are enthusiastic. But the mere idea of going to Columbus, paying rail road fare and board, will thin out the Boston crewd tremendously By the time they get there, there will neiher be the enthusiasm nor the money to fire the shot that will be heard around the world. —— BLACKLIST OF THE BISHOPS. Freely and frankly bave we spoken from time to time concerning the vices of too lange a part of the Negro min- istry. The bineful effect upon the race of sexual immorality, drunkenness and dishonesty are becoming apparent to all They are stifling the Negro’s religion They are playing havoc with the efforts of the race toward a closer unfon and co-operatinn They are destroying in tho mand of :be coming gentrasion, the sscred place, the splendid opportunity of the Negro preacher. These vices are neither confined to « few ministers or any denomination, nor are they re. stricted to this or any other section of the country. For example we learn on ood authority since our last tewce, that of $1,400 secently collected for foreign Baptist mlaslonary work, $400 reacties forelgn missloas and that $1,000 goes to Burpokes other than those right and sroper. Now, we are not doing any arack raking. We are not trying, as has boon alleged, to attack the Nogro stialiter. ‘We need neither to affirm our friend. ‘ship for the ministry nor our service ta the church, We are ringing the alarm as to be country-wide peril to the Negro, within-bis own ranks. We shell persist in this crusade, We shall not ‘ableld corruption, nor shall we fail to be more speciéc if necessary, when occa- ‘tion demands. We call upon the bishops of the Meth- odist Church, upon the Baptist Conven- tion, upon the authorities of every Ne- gro denomination to set aright these conditions. We would urge them to es- tablish a blacklist wherein might be re- corded every scoundrel at present pol- luting the pulpit. We want the Negro church to set itself right with the world, that it may help set the world aright ——s NEGRO SUFFORT: FOR EDUCATION. Beginning within a short time, Tae ‘Act is planning to publish a series of hort articles from the pen of 2 leading Southern white educator These arti cles will prove without doubt that the Negro is not only paying for his edu: cation in the way of taxation, but tha the Negro's money helps educate the white people in many parts of the South These articles will be short and criss and well worth reading. We advise our readers to let their friends know about them, that they may have a widé reading. We also urge our newsdealer: and agents to prepare to distribute « large number of extra copies of Tx ‘Ack containing these articles. SHELTER oF NEW YORK LAW. The most notable legal victory of New York Negroes in many years was gained last week. when the Appelate Term of the Supreme Court of New York affirmed the decision of the Third Municipal Gourt against the Green Car Sight Seeing Company The company, it will be remembered, was fined $100 by the city court for refusing to accom- modate a Negro passenger, Estelle Green. Denying the facts of the gefusal of the colored girl with the most ab- surd lies, the company immediately ap- pealed the case But in happy contrast to the persistent evasion. by the Supreme Court of the United States of the question of Negro rights, the Supreme Court of this State met the issue square- ly and decided in favor of law and justice. The more noteworthy 15 the decision in that this high tribunal up- held the law without taking the trouble to write out its opinion The New York statute, Sec 1, Chap 1042, of the laws of 1895 is clear I provides that All persons within the Jurisdiction of SPSL ries aa Stting "Wousas, bath bouses, barber Shope, theatres: music hails, public con- Says use ookduone aba Waltationn SE er gions Sade New York law, at least, furnishes 2 sure and safe shelter, under which nc Negro need be publicly humiliated. Ne Negro here need tolerate any foolish in fringement of his rights and privileges But it is for him to follow up this splen did object lesson to drawers of the colo line with a similar prosecution ever time the occasion demands The date is far too late for colored ladies anc ‘gentlemen to be refused, simply on ac count of their color and simply out o deference to Southern sentiment Thi case, we hope, will prove a death blow to an all too common discrimination That this may be so, let New York Negtoes freely use and enforce thei privileges as free and equal citizens ANNIVESARY OF JOHN BROWN. At Storer College, Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, on May 9, the one bun- dred and tenth anniversary of the birth of John Brown was celebrated. The year 1900 is the semi-centenary of the battle of Harper's Ferry and of many other of the successful battles of John Brown in Kansas and Missouri against slavery There can be no days in the ‘secular calendar of this year more im- ‘portant, more sacred to the Negro race in their meaning than these days The anniversaries. of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln have been splen- didly celebrated. With no less enthusi- asm and interest should the name and memory of John Brown he observed by Negroes The great presidents may have accomplished more than the martyr of Ossawotamie, but none can be writ more highly and indelibly upon the scroll of herore and patriotic Americans Had there been no John Brown, there might have been no Lincoln Ae yet we have heard of no plan: among Negroes for celebrations com: mensurate with the meaning of the an. niversary year. Our public men, ou leading and thoughtful citizens through. out the length and breadth of the lend should immediately lay plans for suit- able service on the anniversary of the ‘eeirure nf the Arsenal by Brown or Pastas 46 oF at wommequdie Seth us December 2. Let the name of Johr Brown go down to the coming gen: erations of Negroes, enshrined at once as 2 hallowed memory and a sacted call to thelr duties and rights as equal cit zens. John Brown's body lies a-mould. ering in the grave.

Sa Os ae ale Antat the Vernon Congressionsl Beet. ‘surant Incident last Friday st Washing- ton, one thing alone depresses us—the abject apology of Mr. Vernon, The Reg- later of the United States Treasury, who is incidentally a Negro, is quoted as making this excuse for taking his visit- ing friend to lunch in the public House Dining Room: ‘“L.waa not aware at all that my pres- ence thore was exolting any unusual comment, and I am sorry to have been the cause of any trouble of this kind T never bavo been one of those who In- sisted on going tn any place where I was not wanted. 1 did not overhear any talk about my presence, and I am sorry T was oot told about it when {t occurred.” The only inference from your words, Mr Vernon, if correctly quoted, is that had you known, at the time, of the ob- jection of the white men to your eating, that you would not have eaten. These words of cringing deference to South- ern opinion from you are unmanly, un- tumely and distinctly mortifying to your race, There was no reason in night or expediency for your being sorry. Sorry ‘of what? Sorry that white men left the room hungry or sorry that you did not leave the room hungry? Sorry that you color offended narrow-minded South- erners of sorry that you did not de- press your race with the fact that no! ‘even a National Negro official can se- cure necessary public accommodation: tn the Capital of this country? Negroes, Mr. Vernon, have discarded their agitating, prejudice-inciting notor- tety seekers. But manly Negroes have an equal contempt for the fawning and greedy supplicant before the altar of prejudice. The Negroes of this coun: try want men at Washington who will stand upon their equal manhood an¢ dignity. We are heartily sorry an ashamed, Mr Vernon, that you shoulé make the use of your rightful privilege the occasion for an abject apology. EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS. Those Orange, New Jersey, white neighbors of Rev. Hood who has just purchased a fine residence in their midst, have our heartfelt sympathy. First, because of the keen disappoint- ment they will experience in their net neighbor and, secondly, because their own race is so commercial. The yellpw press howled with rage at the injustice and suffering which the Payne Tariff bill would entail upon the people.

WALTON WHITE CRITICS ANSWER THE AGE SEVERAL of our white publications which do not lay claim to repre- which do not lay claim to representing any particular class or race, although their attitude to the Negro race is such as to cause one to oftimes sit and ponder as to in just what way is the Negro included in the fold, outside of the arting of race roots, lynchings, murders and all such things sensational, have seen fit to take up with some seriousness the two articles recently published in THE AGE under the respective headings of "The Awakening" and Conspiracy of the White Press In referring to THE AGE as being "a colored folk paper," as put by one critic, and as "a newspaper organ which claims to represent our fellow citizens of African descent," by another, we will again try to enlighten our white writers by dropping the information that while THE AGE is published in the interest of the Negro, it is also published with a view to educating the general public relative to what the race is accomplishment, we may add that one of the chief missions of the paper is to emancipate our white fellow citizens from some of the erroneous impressions they seem to have about us, and we feel sure that in all fairness to themselves, if they will but read and heed, they will proft thereby. Mr. Metcalfe, dramatic critic of Life, a very able writer, and also exceedingly fair-minded so far as the Negro is concerned, charges the dramatic editor of THE AGE of "over-aggressiveness" in the two articles mentioned above. He comments in part as follows "By lamenting that the performers in The Red Moon' try to ape white performers of musical comedy in speech and in the use of wigs and the make-up box, instead of remaining frankly Negro, certain critics of the daily press have called down on their heads the ire of THE NEW YORK AGE, a newspaper organ which claims to represent our fellow citizens of African descent. The colored advocate, in his zeal for his race, shows something of the over-aggressiveness which even the best white friends of his people resent when it becomes conspicuous in public. It is not of great importance artistically, or as a race question, how much white powder, rouge and false hair colored performers put on in musical comedy, but the white critics were right in so far as they suggested that these ambitious Afro-Americans would do themselves credit if they tried to accomplish something original and distinctive of their race, rather than imitate a not very lofty kind of Caucasian achievement." The Writer Is Not Over Aggressive. Regarding the last thought, the writer agrees with Critic Metcalfe in toto. In his criticism in THE AGE of "Aida," Overton Walker's "Salome" some months ago the suggestion was made that we produce dances, etc, peculiar to ourselves. However, we fear that Critic Metcalfe mistakes for over-aggressiveness a sincere desire on the writer's part to set right our white fellow citizens as to what is "frankly Negro" and what constitutes the general make-up of the race in America. The writer is honest in his endeavor to open the eyes of the white citizens to the real conditions existing in this country pertaining to the Negro—conditions to which the former appear to be woefully ignorant. If even the best friends of the race take offense at an attempt on the part of the writer to acquaint them with facts that will add to their store of knowledge, then they are enemies to themselves. Quite true it may not be of great importance artistically how much paint and powder, rouge and false hair colored performers put on in their musical comedy, but the writer takes issue with Critic Metcalfe when he further adds that the question of make up and wigs is insignificant as a race question, for it was on this point some of our critics showed that they were in dire need of education regarding the Negro's color or colors Take, for instance, the criticism of Acton Davies, dramatic editor of the Sun, who gave forth this very sad plaint "Although the company is made up entirely of colored performers, there were times when one fairly ached for the sight of a man or woman who was really black and wasn't ashamed of it." If Crutne Davies would go back on the the stage after a performance of "The Red Moon" and personally meet each member of the chorus when they had dispensed with make up he would find that the same array of variegated complexions ranging from the very far complexion to the thick hue, would be in evidence, and that even cold cream and a brisk application of the towel had not made the members much darker. One would be led to believe from the here they were made much lighter by paint and powder, and while he oversteps his bounds somewhat when he suggests that there were people on the stage who were ashamed of their true colors (which he evidently thought to be very dark), no offense was taken, as we know that a majority of our white friends do not understand and need enlightenment. Critic Metcalfe has never been in the position of being a Negro and having escorted a young lady of very fair complexion, yet colored, in public. Perhaps he would understand why we are anxious for the white critics to know that we have many more shades than black if he was to be subjected to rude stares and ruder remarks if he was a colored man and was aware of what in- EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON convenience is often caused by the ignorant public mistaking someone in the party for white. Maybe if this critic knew of instances where a dark man has been assaulted by whites because they mistook his wife on the streets for other than colored, he could readily see the significance of our desire to make our white crates and the white public understand that as a race we pale the rainbow into insignificance so far as colors go, and that we do not hire people for our colored shows because of their color, but by reason of their ability After all, this color question is a joke from many viewpoints, although it would probably be a bit of shocking information to many of our white critics to learn that in New York City there are hundreds of colored people passing for white. In other words, Mr Metcalfe, we have been paving the way to break to our white fellow citizens the news that the color line is about as vague and indefinite as the North Pole. For even the Negro is beginning to have trouble figuring where it stops and its ending point. In Monday evening's New York Mail appeared an article under a two-column headline—"Colored Newspaper Defends the Red Moon" In his opening paragraph Critic Frederic McKay said THE NEW YORK AGE, a colored folk paper, is out with a vigorous basting of Toxen Worm, the Shubert's general press representative, Ashton Stevens, dramatic critic of the Evening Journal, and the writer of this column Lester A Walton, the dramatic editor of THE AGE, prints his picture at the head of his department and says " After quoting in part the article in last week's AGE, Critic McKay answers the question—Are the New York dramatic critics unduly influenced? as follows "Not so you would notice it Mr Stevens has been away in Chicago many weeks writing for Hearst's Chicago American, and it is the Evening Mail that heralds Bert Williams, of Williams and Walker, as one of the best comedians on the American stage" As Critic McKay has not said anything, there is not much to answer. In fact, he speaks for everyone but himself. Mr McKay could not help from saying that Bert Williams is one of the best comedians on the American stage. He may have added one of the best comedians of the English-speaking world. But what the AGE wants to know is why did Critic McKay attend a performance of "The Red Moon," come out in his paper with the announcement that he would review the show, and suddenly change his mind? This is the third week of the show at the Majestic Theatre, and yet the Mail is to be heard from Why? WHERE THE BIG SHOWS ARE RED MOON—Majestic Theatre, New York City.

BERT WILLIAMS IN VAUDEVILLE Opens Monday at Hammertstein's—Is a Big Hit. Bert A. Williams of Williams and Walker is a scream in vaudeville. For the first time in his career he appeared Monday in New York in vaudeville with out his partner. If any one imagines that this funny comedian cannot go it alone just take a trip to Hammertstein's this week, where he is the hit of the despite the attempt of the "White Rats" to make him only a small part of the program. With Mr. Williams success the writer cannot help regretting that the comedian is not being accorded the proper recognition due him—the headliner of the bill. But he signed his contract with that impression, and he would have been but for the activity of the "White Rats," an organization composed of white vaudeville players who are not any too desirous of seeing the colored performer recognized to any extent. However, we could the third time just as floured some years ago just as floured We do not take their pernicious activity seriously as the public will not be distracted to long as to who shall furnish entertainment. Colored comedians of high standing can do much by fighting for their rights; for after all the theatre manager is going to give the most consideration to those who are the strongest box office at attractions and during his fly in vaudeville Bert Williams is one of that number. It was amusing to see how Gus Edwards song writer and headliner was assisted in his endeavor to make good instead of being billed Gus Edwards. It should have been Gus Edwards and Company as he was able supported by a quartet and assistants in different parts of the house. Bert Williams as some capital new songs and several very funny stories Having heard at more times his story from "Bandanna Land" of how he cured his dress suit the writer was not as fasciously impressed with it as the others although it went big. Monday evening he was called to the footlights time and time again. The Morning Telegraph in commenting on the comedian's first appearance in saundersville alone, says Bert Williams proves conclusively that comedy is not a question of race or color. He blacks up it is true, but he proceeds from his originality of genre to his interactions with intuitions his grotesque carrriage and his comical way of looking at you. "He has some new songs and some new lies, but he simply had to respond to sing one old one." No, he didn't. But one one he did. And the way he had his listeners shouting with merriment showed conclusively that he need never look for a partner to accentuate his humor." Octogoon Burlesque Company "Looking for a King" termed "a musical creation" is a hodgepodge composed of scenes and allusions from the Smart Set, Kufuus Rastus" The Oracer Man" and several other productions For originality the piece has no standing however We learn it was put together hurriedly which goes without saving The feature of "The October Burlesque Company" is its also during which some very good specialties are introduced First, there are the "Five Musical Spillers" one of the best musical acts in the business, and one that could make it warm for the Exposition Four were they to introduce several new novelties. Then there are Deas and Deas, whose act would be more highly appreciated if they would do some cutting. They have a great way of "kidding" an audience, and manage to get considerable applause by it. However, the female member of the act could do a little less screaming and yelling at the audience when they are doing their "kidding" stunt. Miss Deas has the makings of a very clever performer. Her stage appearance is worthy of praise as well as her wardrobe. The male member of the act appeared to be in bad voice, but his good dancing brought forth several rounds of applause. Finches and Brown also contribute largely to the success of the olio. They have an entertaining act, consisting of singing and dancing, and there is not a dead number in it. Harry Reed is doing the comedy in the show to Lawrence Dean's straight. His make-up is funnier than his lines, due to the fact that the proper situation has been made better and he would like to see something original written to suit his size and style of comedy. Others in the company are Harry Haynes, Jimmy Worles, Walter Usher, Gertie Miller, Widreed, Freed, Annie Smith, Jannie Hudson and Rita Gross, of whom contribute vocal selections in a pleasing manner.

Brooklyn, the game was not as closely contested as the score might indicate. The visitors had the game sweeped up from the first inning, they made four runs, and they outplayed the home team from every standpoint. In the last half of the ninth, with the score standing 8 to 3 in favor of the Royal Giants, the Loughlin made four runs, due to hitting long threes in the outfield, which the fielders were unable to get, owing to the large crowd that had congregated. However, Buckner got down to pitching good ball and outs were made by knocking the ball to the infield. Earl captained the team Sunday, "Honor Run" Johnson being absent from the city. The infield worked with a clock-like regularity that should cause Manager Connor to keep the line-up of Sunday for a while.

In the fifth inning, with two men on bases, Tommy Washington leaned against the ball for a home run hit.

The meeting was largely attend- ed by members and friends, and the subject, "How to Rescue the Failen, was discussed. The object of the work was expained very well by the dependant, Mr. Auxiliary, and several became members of the Auxiliary. A nice sum of money was raised to help push the work. One of the most enjoyable events in the social circles of Brooklyn recently was the birthday surprise party, which was given by Mrs. Hailey in honor of her birthday. As the young couple has a large circle of social friends, the party was held at Metropolitan Hall, which provided ample accommodations. Social dance music was furnished for the enjoyment of the guests, as was also a well-known caterer, served an many daly dishes, which included many daly dishes. Mrs. Roberts was assisted in receiving by Mrs. Edward Foy, W. H. Banks, Mrs. W. M. McFarland, Mrs. H. Green and Mrs. F. B. Brawner. Among the guests were Mrs. Ed. Brawner, Mrs. J.

I, where she expects to remain for some time. She was chaperoned through the city by Mrs Ella Sanders and other friends. The congregation of the Bethany Baptist Church began the celebration of the first anniversary of the pastorate of the Rev Holland Powell as their pastor on Monday evening. The nineteen-year-old Young will manage the Brooklyn Cottage at Asbury Park again this season. The third annual muscicle of the Sunday School Committee of the Concord Baptist Sunday School, which was given the award of last week, was a gratifying success. The building was crowded beyond standing room. The program was predeided over by Dr. F. Murron Among those who took part were Robbins, M. Sade Jackson, Master Herbert Gurley, Mrs. Dalay Jefferson, Mr James Burwell M. A. W Wiley, Dr W. T Dixon and Prof. J F R Wilson. The officers of the committee Charles Crowder, chairman Miss Elinah Mae, matriary, and Mrs Bertha Kemp, treasurer The annual fair of St Augustine's P. E. Church, which was held at Pilgrim Hall. Court street, opposite Douglas street, was the social attraction of last week. The fair was opened with a pleasing courtyard and a chapel of Mirtha B. Upson, and consisted of a recitation, vocal and instrumental solos, rendered by the trained nurses of Lincoln Hospital, Manhattan, after which Miss M. *Lawton* read a paper on "The Value of the Press." The many booths which were tastefully arranged and beautifully decorated, were stocked with fancy merchandise, and the booth at the fair was that which was presided over by Mrs. H. L. Kemp, assisted by a coterie of ladies. This booth was heavily laden with cut glass, jewelry and Oriental trimming of various designs. Miss M. R. Lyons was demonstrator. The fair was largely attended throughout the time and was sourced from the people of Brooklyn, and proved a benefit to those in search of wares such as the fair committee carried Y. W. C. A. Concert. On Thursday evening, April 19th, a concert was given at Association Hall, 7 East 15th street, for the benefit of the (colored branch) Young Women's Association. I will receive a excellent compliment well received by a very appreciative audience. The main feature of the programme was the Singing Class under the direction of Isaac Rosenblatt. The others on the programme who gave their kind assistance in making the affair a success were Helena Elsie Smith (pianist) and Miss Etta P Cannon (elocutionist). There isn't any doubt as to the sweetness of Miss Johnson's voice. Her notes are clear and true, and it is indeed a satisfaction and a pleasure to be able to understand distinctly the words of the song as she accompanies it. Her enunciation is exceptionally good, and she was enthusiastically enced, singing in all five songs, prominent among which were "The Violet" by Mildenberg, and another very sweet little song, namely, "By the Zuluder Zee" Miss Armand (pianist) and Mildenberg and his accompanist. Miss Smith's playing was all that could be desired and we were sorry she did not favor us with an encore. Her selection was "Rigoletto" by Verdi-Listz. Miss Cannon's reciting was almost perfect, and her enunciation is excellent. The two numbers that she enunciated were "Dix, and "The Charlot Race" by Low Wallace. All together it was a concert that well paid those who brave the inclement weather to attend it.
