VOL. XXII. No. 41. DECISION OF ARBITRATORS Discussed at Length by Negro Press Throughout the Country FIREMEN'S VICTORY Regarded as Significant as to Effect on Industrial Conditions in the South Negro Workmen Thrown Up? Their Own Resources—Will Have to Come Up to Standard to Hold Positions In commenting on the decision of the Board of Arbitration in the Georgia Railroad case the Negro press has discussed the findings of the board at length. Every Negro newspaper in the country agrees that the decision was a just one, but in many instances the effect of the decision is questioned. Some papers want to know if it will result in the ultimate elimination of Negro firemen because better white laborers can be recruited for the same money. Many of the papers assert that from now on it will be a case of the survival of the littest, that the colored fireman will be thrown upon his own resources and will have to make good, that no preference will be shown Negroes as they will receive the same as the whites, and will, therefore, have to do their work as well, if not better than the white firemen in order to keep their jobs. Following are a few comments on the decision Cairo, Ill., Baptist Truth. The arbitrators in the recent George Railroad strike gave a decision which commands itself to all reason-minded people regardless of color the salient points in the decision are the colored firemen shall receive the pay as white firemen. The security of white firemen over colored men is knocked out." Kalva Va., Lodge Journal and Guide. Upon the decision of the board rests the future of all the Negro firemen in the South, as the fight against them have been extended to the other states at once had the organized whites out. The South is not yet ready to be ruled by the labor unions and the job. And the efficient docile and long-suffering Negro will not be separated from the pick and shovel of Zion. The salutary effects of this victory by fair play will put a premium on urgency and efficiency that will work models among Negro laborers while the needest rest from hostile agitation will be profitable throughout the South is probable that this means the entiment of Negroes into the labor unions in separate branches perhaps. The Negro firemen who are benefited by this decision must see to it that not only now but forever hereafter they deserve the local friendship of men like General Manager Scott and that they are not provoked to any breach of law or good faith by the sentiment along the line of their runs." Charlotte, N. C., Afro-American. "The strike on the Georgia railroad has been settled. The arbitration board has given its decision and the relation of the Negro to the railroad remembs just as it was before the strike began. The Negro will continue as firemen and will be given the benefit of promotion as firemen when he deserves it capacity and efficiency of service will smile him to better pay. The decision of the board will meet the approval of all fair-minded men throughout the country. The board of arbitrators should be congratulated upon the fact that it rose above the prejudice of the striking firemen and decided according to justice. The wheels of progress in the South are not turning backward. It have yielded to the unjust demands of the strikers would be born an awful blow to the Negro and the entire South. The men controlling the board of arbitrators were segregated. This is a significant fact to show that there is in Georgia a strong class of white men who love justice and fair play for the Negro. We cannot Hike Southmen not to ride the Negro. It means that in the future the Negro will be given an opportunity to work and make a living." The institution involved were vital for far asColored man of the South of the nation was concerned. The institution understand their decision, defined to accede to the demands of the white firemen except that railroad companies must pay the wage colored as to white firemen. The white firemen hope by this decision to the colored firemen minated but we see no reason why should be. Railroad authorities are unanimous in their testimony that red firemen as a rule gave bet service that white ones because enduring and able to stand more. The decision opens no door for colored firemen to become an enforcer and leaves this with the com- It is now up to the colored men or securing the position of a positive fireman to hold his own by value of the service he renders. It pleasures us to us that this board of the white men of the South were able of divesting themselves of owners of racial prejudice they have in order to render what they to us, without having all the facts, to be a righteous decision or as near as could be under the circum stances." "The award giving Negro firemen the same pay as white firemen is just, both to the Negro and the striking firemen. Just to the Negro because it was proven to the satisfaction of the arbitration court that the Negro's service was as efficient and valuable as the white man's, and just to the white firemen, because it moved the possible incentive that lead the Georgia railroad to give Negro firemen seniority over white firemen, cheap labor. The proposition which effected this end was not one of six propositions originally submitted, but was a relative question which typically grew out of the lack of merit which characterize the original questions submitted. The conclusion of the whole matter is, the settlement is just and right, and neither the firemen, Negroes or railroad, have cause for complaint. The questions presented were erroneous in principle and they were promptly denied. On the board of arbitration both schools of white thought and sentiment were represented. Congressman Hardwick, representing the extreme Negro haters, and Messrs, Barrow and Herbert, representing the wisdom and conservatism of the South. The award clearly demonstrates that whenever clearly in the South exerts itself no more will be heard Demogacy can itself no more stand the truth than Congressman Hardwick could stand the mature wisdom and judgment of Messrs Barrow and Herbert. A public service has been rendered mankind in the award of the board and a great moral question has been happily adjusted. The Negro has been taught that merit will win and the bias white man, that he can no longer depend upon a maudlin sentiment to favor him, but he must stand upon his merit and worth as a man. The lessons taught by the award must prove helpful to every interest involved. So long as boards of arbitration rise to the dignity of the occasion and settle disputes as the Georgia railroad strike was settled the Erdman Act must grow in popularity and its enactment will prove a blessing both to organized labor and capital. Each need to be taught that both have rights that the other must respect, and that each correspondingly owe the public a duty in the spirit of service that neither can well afford to ignore." Honor for Mrs. Yates. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., July 11—Mrs. Josephine Silme Yates, at a recent meeting of the Board of Regents of Lincoln Institute, received the promotion, or mark of distinction, of being made "Adviser of Women," in connection with the Chair of English, which she very successfully has occupied for the last seven years. The Cole County Democrat, a leading Jefferson City daily, makes this comment: "Mra. Yates is considered one of the best English teachers in the State." NEW YORK, THURSDAY JULY 15, 1909. Is the Sincere Opinion of Minister Henry W. Furniss A Crying Need of Republic— Haiti Enjoying Reign of Unusual Vigor under Administration of President Simon. Dr. Henry W. Furniss, American Minister to Haiti, accompanied by Mrs Furniss, before sailing last Saturday for Port au Prince, at the expiration of a two months' sojourn in his native land, discussed Haitian commercial and educational conditions with a representative of the Age. Looking the picture of health the American Minister to the troubled Negro Republic spoke THE FEDERAL MEMORIAL OF THE UNION OF AMERICA THE LEGEND OF THE WORLD'S FIRST FARMER MINISTER HENRY W. FURNISS with much confidence of the prospects and the future of Haiti Under President Simon, his personal friend the doctor, and that Haiti is enjoying a reign of unusual vigor. Speaking in terms of warm praise, of the new executive Minister Furniss said President Autone Simon is not and never has been a professional politician. He is an agriculturist by nature. Last twenty years he was governor-general of the southern province of Haiti and those years have been happy and prosperous since the present. To him a true friend and fortune he has been a true friend and accordingly with both he is popular. Mr Simon had no intention of becoming president, but the opportunities came to him and he was accepted gained for him his under the new admiral island and which evoked comment of all America the revolution last No ENCAMPMENT OF Negro Soldiers to W held July SPRINGFIELD, IA, JULY ing event for the campaign of the N.

Shall of Chicago, La. He has surrounded himself by an unusually able cadre of caterpillar officers, and for this reason the president, Human government is somewhat stronger in effective work and in its grasp on conditions than that of Nord-Mess, the late president now in exile. Importantly timely have been the efforts of the Simon regime in the active measures now being taken to modernize and place on a stable basis the financial status of the Republic. In short, while President Simon is ruling with little clamor and less noise, he is ruling with a strong and statesmanlike hand. An awakening industry and a contented prospering populace are the results. Foreign capital is being invested and the country is being developed. The City National Bank of New York is largely interested and has already financed an extension of the Haitian railroad and the construction of a great harbor wharf. "The soil of Haiti is virgin," continued the doctor, "and her agricultural possibilities are unlimited. Up to this time there has been only surface cultivation, the soil being plowed but --- scratched with hoops and machetes. Intensive cultivation, a rapid rotation of crop system would produce a wonderful increase in the productivity of the land. The very best coffee is raised in Haiti, and the first more of the island's coffee is not used in America is due to the fact that it is actually too fine for her popular consumption. It goes for the most part to the French cafe. Cocoa, hides and animal and dyewoods are her great stuffs commodities and cotton also has a valuable vegetation function. The vegetable is, of course, the trying need of Haiti to develop these untold possibilities. To this end, the limon government is maintaining one for two industrial schools. "Education in Haiti is both public and private. Grammar school education in public and compulsory, while the higher institutions, of learning are private. Yet it is only fair to state that public school education there, as here, has gone wide of the mark. The more practical and sustaining education that would be to Haiti in fact as in name the 'Garden Spot of the Indies' has just now been discovered and introduced" Minister Furniss spoke of Nord-Alexis as a "great old character." But when it came to a discussion of political affairs, he maintained that silence, which in him has been truly golden. He preserved his past neutrality, which gained for him his present popularity under the new administration in the island and which evoked the approving the time of the revolution last, November ENCAMPMENT OF THE 8TH Negro Soldiers to Mobilize in Spring- Field July 17. SPRINGHILL, TN. July 13—The coming event for the summer is the encampment of the National Guard of the State. The 5th Regiment of this state is a Negro Regiment, Officered from colony to corporal. The regiment mobilizes here July 17, and will have charge of the camp for one week. The colored people enjoy the week by attending the dress parades and other maneuvers of the soldiers. The officers are Col Juno R Marshall of Chicago Leut Col Johnson of Chicago Mar Jackson, of Chicago, Mar Duncan, of Springfield, Maj Demson of Chicago, Bat. Adj (on staff) C Hinton, of Springfield, and I R Thompson of Springfield Company H is located in Springfield. The officers of the company are Opt W D Hodge, First Lieutenant, Richard Ross, Second Lieutenant, Joe I Morgan. The regiment is the only complete colored regiment in the United States and the conduct of the officers and the men is above reproach. In fact it ranks among the second best for department and militar skill and sharp shooting. On Decoration Day, a program Company H is rendered at Day School and Bat. Adj Hinton delivered a charming letter. Leut Ross delivered a brilliant address touching on the race question and the rights of men. He urged among other things, the essentiality of the Negro being treated rightly and predicted that this nation would face a crisis in which it would beg for succor from the humblest citizen regardless of the color. He also urged members of the race to abstain from profanity and wield it. "LILY WHITES" IN VIRGINIA Overwhelmingly Defeated in Convention by Negroes and Regulars Which took "Lily Whites" by Surprise—Negroes Elected on Different Delegations in Goochland County Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. RICHMOND, VA., July 12—The "Lily Whites" of Goochland County, Va., are in deep gloom. In fact they are chained and bowed in sorrow, which probably seems a little strange considering the news that has been flashed from the South regarding Federal appointments of late Nevertheless and notwithstanding, the "Lily Whites" in this section of the country are not as jubilant as those living in other parts of the South. It is not because of any recent Federal appointments that the "Lily Whites of Goochland County are in bad humor. There trouble has been occasioned by a big surprise party tendered them a few days ago by the regular white Republicans of the county and the Negro Republicans. They effected a combination that has been the undong of the "Lily Whites" for a time at least. A call was made a short time ago for a meeting to be held for the purpose of electing delegates from Goughland County to the Republican State Convention in Newport News. When the meeting was called to order by County Chairman M J Enright, an avowed "Lily White," the anti-Negro faction of the party was so inflated with confidence and the principles of "white supremacy" that no thought was given that there would be any well-organized opposition against the "Lily White" faction. Negroes Gain Control. Judge their surprise when an organization of the convention was effected to find that the Negroes and the regular white Republicans were in complete control of the situation. An effort was made to form a combination with the regular white Republicans, and an attempt was made to bring about other combinations to defeat the Negroes, but to no good purpose. The Negro Republican and their white allies were in complete control and won on every question brought forward for consultation. Two of the five Goebland representatives will be J S Pleasant, colored, who acted as secretary at the convention, and Dandridge Hopkins, colored who is well known in the country and is said to be very influential. The combination besides securing two of the five delegates to Newport News succeeded in naming the full delegation to Columbia, where a convention will be held to select a nominee for the House of Delegates from Goebland and Fluvanna Counties. It is rumored that several combinations have been formed throughout the state by white and colored Republicans with a view to ridding the state of such an oxious element of the Republican party. The "Lily Whites" have not yet recovered from their overwhelming defeat. Monster Parade and Reception for Soldiers by Negro Citizens of New York City. Twenty-five churches were represented Tuesday evening at a big meeting of New York citizens held for the purpose of making arrangements for a monster reception to be tendered the Tenth United States Calvary upon the arrival of the famous Negro regiment from the Philippines. If the present plans of the executive committee having charge of the proposed affair are carried out, the Negro citizens will hold a big public demonstration in honor of the Tenth Calvary never be for equalled. The soldiers are expected to reach New York City on or about July 25. Upon the arrival of the famous regiment here the soldiers will be met by a big reception committee and they will march in the parade to be held in their behalf. Many societies will participate and all uniformed ranks desiring a place in the line of march are requested to write at once to the committee at 177 West 454th street or telephone Columbia 397. Attorney Frank Wheaton is chairman of the committee. I Q Morton secretary, and Dr W H Brooks treasurer AFRICANS TO BUILD RAILWAY Third- Mile Electric Line for Hanau- land to Cost $100,000. If the predictions of C. Wesley Brown of Makeneg, Bautailou, South Africa, are realized the black natives of that country will soon boast of a thirty mile electric railway by Nov- ember. The road, including the Nov- ishment of construction and the rolling stock, will cost about $100,000. Mr. Brown was in New York City the first part of the week, and left Tuesday for London. While in the United State he visited relatives in Kansas and Colorado. He is acting representative for his government in the purchase of material for the construction of the road, and will make all his purchases in Eng- land. It is likely he will remain in Toronto for two months. AGE. For the past nine years Mr Brown has been engaged in educational and missionary work in South Africa, and was the Colonial Secretary of Basutoland during the British Boer war. Basutoland is a crown colony and is governed by Paramount Chief Letse It is said to be the only exclusive Negro country in Africa located South of the Zambest River The Paramount Chief has taken a fancy to the automobiles owned by tourists, and has commissioned Mr Brown to send him two from London LEAGUE FORMED IN EVANSTON. Business Men of Chicago and Suburbs Show Great Interest in National Negro Business League. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE CHICAGO, Ill. July 13—Prof Chas. H Moore, national organizer of the National Negro Business League, invaded Chicago last week in the interest of the National League. Before he left he succeeded in injecting new life and vigor into the local league. There are to be seen on every side distinct effect of his splendid campaign for an aroused public interest in business circles. Under the guidance of S Laing Williams, Prof Moore called personally upon a large number of the prominent business men of the city. He was cordially received and instantly won the respect of all by his intelligent talk to the Negro men and women who are reaching up toward a respectable business status. Last Sunday afternoon Prof Moore addressed the Young People's Literary Society of Bethlehem M. E Church. In the meeting through the courtesy of Dr Carey, he occupied the pulp alone and made an excellent use of it in preaching the gospel of thrift and business. At the close of his address a large number of the church people gathered about him, asking many questions concerning the progress of the league. It proved a most auspicious occasion for the cause represented by him. On Monday evening, July 5, a large number of substantial business men of the city met at the Frederick Douglas Center for the purpose of effecting a more perfect and cohesive organization of the local league. All present eagerly signed the roll of membership On Thursday evening, July 8, Prof Moore, in company with a number of Chicago people, visited Evanston, the big suburban annex to Chicago. In Evanston, as fine a group of business men as can be found in any city of its size in the country, Prof Moore received a hearty greeting from its citizens Dr W. F Garnett acted as chairman of the meeting, and after listening to the national organizer, all joined the local league and at once raised the money necessary to obtain a national charter The organization includes the following representative gentlemen Dr W H Garnett, J E Wobb, E W Wright, J A Kison, A P Perry, John Anter, J E Jones, F Davenport, J Wisher, Henry Butler and nephew, J Butler The membership will be enlarged at once. Among the members are expressmen, livestock, restaurant keepers, dentists, physicians and caterers. Mr Henry Butler has the largest and most complete livestock and express business in Evanston. He gives employment to a large number of men as drivers, clerks and horsemen, and is said to be worth $100,000. The Chicago League meets again Monday evening next for the election of permanent officers and to arrange for attendance at the Louisville convention Prof Moore left Chicago highly gratified by his reception, work accomplished and the general enthusiasm that followed his efforts in league matters From Chicago he went to Peoria, Ill Failed at Suiteide, Then Lones Case St. Paul, MN, July 12 - In judge Haunfelt's court last week the case of James W.

Bell at Session of Negro Business League, Held in Waco DELEGATES PRESENT Representing Quarter of a Million Dollars—League in Healthy Condition—To Meeg Next Year in Houston Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. Waco, Tex., July 13—During the session of the Texas Negro Business League, held in this city July 6 and 7, it was made known to the members of the League that recently an effort was made to oust all Negro laborers on the Southern Pacific Railroad at Houston, Tex., but to no good purpose. The information was given during the address of J. Bell, of Houston, who said that 4 delegation of whites went to New York and petrusted the management to replace hundreds of Negroes working on the Southern Pacific with white laborers; that the request was flatly turned down, the delegation being informed that the Negro workmen were giving the railroad satisfaction. This year's session of the league will be remembered as the most eventful in the history of the organization. The meeting was held at the city hall, and appropriate addresses were made during the session. Although the Texas Negro Business League has not the large membership as some of the State bodies, it is in a healthy and thriving condition. The thirty-odd delegates present represented over a quarter of a million dollars' worth of wealth in their own rights as individuals. ```markdown ``` R C Houston, of Fort Worth, the energetic vice-president of the league, had the misfortune to break his leg before the meeting, and was absent. Anyone who has ever met Bob Houston knows what the league missed by his misfortune Banking Business Eagerly Discussed. The most notable address was that delivered by Dr E. E. M Griggs, of Palestine, Texas, president of the Farmers' Savings Bank. His subject was "The Systematic Saving of Money the First Step in Our Economic System" Dr. Griggs, who is besides a most popular preacher, the representative in this State of the National Baptist Publication Board, spoke so convincingly that at the unanimous and urgent request of the league he delivered the same address the following evening before the whole people of Waco at the St James M E. auditorium. The address is to be published in pamphlet form by the league for general distribution. L. Pricer, cashier of the Farmers' Savings Bank, could read a splendid paper on the outlook for banking and loan and investment companies in Texas. At the close of Mr. Price's address he was kept on the stand for an hour relying to pointed questions relative to the organizing and operating of banks and loan companies, nor did the interest cease at the adjournment of the session, for he was besieged by inquirers even after adjournment. There was a lovely discussion of the subject "The Negro as a Commercial Asset." J. B. Bell of Houston, opened the discussion by showing the immense wealth produced by the Negro. Aside from the farm, Mr Bell said the Negro was proving a most capable worker in all the fields of endeavor and cited the case of the Southern Pacific employees at Houston numbering thousands of Negroes. The Negro the speaker declared, was one of the dominant producers of raw material in this country. The only question was how can the Negroes utilize this wealth making capacity to the advantage of themselves. So happy was Mr. Bell's remarks that a lovely general discussion was brought about. This was participated in by many and was remarkably illuminating. Successful Business Men Give Advice. Another important and far reaching discussion was brought on by a very thoughtful address delivered by S. J. Chestnut. His subject was "The Sure Foundations Upon Which Successful Business Enterprises Are Built". Mr. Chestnut has a model grocery store at Icacristina, Tex., and declared that a true business man was as much inspired as a person or a product that a man should be able to store business he undertook for life. He declared that business honest and character was a sound commercial asset and that deception was not necessary to success. He said that business environment should attract trade honesty should be a commodity as well as articles of merchandise and honest goods at fair prices and forth in representation would insure a permanent trade. The most striking talk of the day was made while discussing this subject by Mr. Well, of Temple, Tex., a prominent contractor whose check was good at any bank in Temple for $30,000 and more. Mr. Well has established in the trucking and builders' supply line almost a monopoly by strict attention to business and excellent service. On one contract he lost $3,000, but filled it to the letter. It appears impossible to displace him.

FAYLOR, 35 Broad Strect, Now York Gf EWS FROM THE CAPITAL CITY Washington Business League Installs Officers. Regular Correspondence of the ACE WASHINGTON, D. C. July 14 - The public meeting of the Washington Negro business League for the installation of the new recruited officers was held at Zion B. Church of which Rev W. J. H. is pastor on Monday evening. A spacious welcome to the recruiting baltic of the trustees of the church was made by Mr. Brooks. He was the builder of the office. W. J. H. Pittman president of the organization made a few remarks teaching the arms and purposes of the church. He was followed upon by Mr. William L. Gude president of the Washington Chase bank, who made the principal thesis at the evening. Mr. Gude is introduced by R. W. Thomas who is affiliated as master of ceremonies for the latter asserting that the fundamentals of the future is business development. Mr. Gude pointed out to those present that has been done in a business with Negroes of other communities addressed the Negro to respect the law to live carefully and to raise the respect of his white neighbors to win the heritage of success in teaching upon educational questions and "Rather than educate youths and girls for the higher education they teach them that working with the boys is not beneath their dignity. Further train them for the independent pursuits than train them to become paid clerks." Mr. Gude's remarks were well received and have best seen favorably commented good. Thomas Jones next gave a plain, practical look. He expressed his opinion that the man who founded the National New Business League Dr. Washington built far better than he knew and did the builders of our national government. He prevailed upon his influence to accept the doctrine that individual solution of individual problems is in large measure the years to the attainment of an adequate settlement of rural problems. Said Mr. Jones "As the Ngo advances intellectually his wants increase accordingly. He must have something to do, and consequently must organize business enterprises. No race of men can ever amount to much without a solid business foundation. You are taking your money and putting it into white banks—more than 200,000 from societies alone—but are not preparing with this money business enterprises for the employment of your boy or girl when they come out of school. You are preparing by making such deposits, to give the white boy and profitable employment." Mr. Jones scored the Washington citations for their lack of mutual confidence inhibited by their failure to support a single bank in this community. Musical discussions for the meeting were conducted by Prof. John T. Layton. A lecture was taken and the meeting of the league, was admonished to assemble in Louisville on August 18. Charles M. Thomas instructor at Normal School No. 2 has recently been an excerpt from his occasional papers dealing with special problems in the education of Afro American children. This publication deals with the Training of the Teacher as the Point of Attack in Negro education. It has considerable interest among students in the moral Mr. Thomas styles at the normal Mr. Thomas style. He concludes as follows: It is so much what the children shall be get, as it is the power, truth, ability and applicability of the teaching coupled with the unconscious influences of the character of the teachers which will bring the children into the whole state of American citizenship of individual usefulness and service." William Porter of Cincinnati, O. was at the National Capital last week and was entered by Judge and Mrs. R H Terrell last Thursday evening Shelby J.

Personnala of Loughkeepale Ongo of Pittsburgh's Most Progressive Loving Lawyers. PITTSBURG, Pa, July 6—Attorney W H Stanton is one of the city's prominent lawyers to whom the young progressive thinking men look as their leader. From every viewpoint he is worthy of the praise and the success he has won from the time of his graduation to the present. Attorney Stanton is a son of Henry M and Margaret Stanton, of this union. The Stantons own the families in the State. While it is true that daily papers do not usually devote space to these or our ideas that bespeak our progress it is encouraging to note they have been fair and impartial in publishing Mr. Stanton's successes. After graduation with Courses in June 1991 Mr Stanton entered the office of ex Judge Charles M. McKenna as a law student. In 1993 he was admitted to the Alleghens County bar and has been busily engaged in the practice of his profession ever since. Four days after his first case the management of which caused him to receive many congratulations from all directions. Perhaps the most interesting proof of his professional life, and the one that won him a place among the city's best lawyers, ispective of race was the successful management of a murder man who was accused of kissing his white wife the injury of which caused perforations from when the woman died. J. ATTORNEY W H STANION This case was fought hard by both sides, and as to be the first and the second, Allegheny County in which the opinion of a doctor was set aside by the defense. The autoptical statement of the Commonwealth was that the woman unquestionably died from peritonitis. Mr. Stanton retuted this statement, for the reason that the hospital authorities under whose care the woman was placed told him she not only walked over the hospital grounds for ten days or more while she was supposed to have been afflicted with peritonitis but had good use of herself, as well. Old citizens who witnessed the trial say the manner in which Mr. Stanton examined the Commonwealth doctor, coupled with the manner in which the doctor was urged by counsel for defense to name the different kinds of peritonitis and their effects would cause the impression that Mr. Stanton had graduated in medicine as well. He proved by the highest medical authorities in the country that the woman could not have died from peritonitis, and the doctor himself, much to his own embarrassment, was compelled to admit that the Mr. Stanton was right. Argument to the Mr. Stanton not necessary in a case (few well chosen accounts) Mr. Stanton asked for an account according to the evidence on both sides. The verdict of acquittal for his client was received with much pleasure by the citizen generally. In addition to his being a lawyer of much ability, Mr. Stanton is an expert typewriter and stenographer, and was also the first lawyer in Allegheny County to receive appointment to defend jails charged with homicide. Although a young man he has figured successfully in some of the most important murder cases ever tried here. As great as he has his success in the known policy, his persecution was a beautiful tribute to the black masses who were the power behind the throne, that made the appointment possible. Mr. Stanton discourages race frictions, but whenever it is necessary for him to go to the front in our behalf, he does so in a manner that always wins respect of even his opponents. practice of his profession, greater still has been his success in engaging in movements that tend to uplift our people. It would be difficult to find a race enterprise in the city with which his name is not in some helpful way connected. It has been well said he does JULY, JULY 15, 1999 not only work for themselves, but he works with them as they being a reaceloving man at his side. He loses the sense of his right to be his boss. In denote of our rights and in denunciation of our wrongs. Attorney Stanton is a "square deal" policy man in the fullest sense; he is just as harsh is criticalizing members of the race for drawing the color line on themselves as he is fearless in denouncing the policy as practical by some whites. This part of his character has never been shown to a better advantage than at a farewell meeting to Rev J.M. Downsie, former pastor of Bethel and a longtime friend of that this church owns a number of fits on Centre avenue, which for a number of years it refused to rent to members of the race. When Rev. Townsend came to the city he preached and labored against the practice until it was discontinued. At the farewell meeting other speakers praised the pastor for his Christian piety, and for starting the creation of a new church, but Attorney Stanton won the applause of the audience in his speech of praise of the pastor for doing what he treasured the crown of honor. In his causing his congregation to stop a practice so detrimental to the interests of the race, Mr. Stanton argued that Rev. Downsie had established a precedent for other Negroes to follow. A pretty part of his life that is not generally known is that he always espouses the cause of the common, but respectable masses Seventy of the city's most representative men recently tendered Attorney Wm M. Randolph a banquet in honor of his appointment as assistant city solicitor, and while Mr. Stanton joined in the speeches of praise of the appointee—true to his well-worn reputation—was a brief tribute to the black masses who were the power behind the throne, that made the appointment possible. Mr. Scott n'Dougoues race friction, but whenever it is necessary for him to go to the point in our behalf he does so in a manner that always wins respect with his opponents. lift for Tuskess J.

Of late Mrs Flas has been making a number of valuable gifts to Negroes. She is credited with stating that she loves the members of her race and has never tried to pass for white. One of Mrs Flas intimate friends is Mrs Marshall who has been the re- cipient of many gifts from her. Mrs Flas has a high regard for her friend and is always happy when she has Mrs Marshall for her guest EFFORT TO OUST NEGROES thousands and thousands in the effort, but so skilled is Mr Well, and so excellent is his outfit, and so resourceful is he that they have all been distanced by this ex-salve competitor. At the close of his address he received an ovation. Messrs Durham and McKinney, of Corsicana, and Messrs Rose and Nelson of Waco, had the floor all to themselves in speaking of "The Negro as a Competitor of the White Man in Barbering." Messrs Durham and McKinney declared that as boss barbers they had been through all the stages of competition, but up-to-date methods, up-to-date appliances and up-to-date barbers had enabled them to wage a successful battle. That the great trouble in the barber business was the character of the barber journeymen, and not until they had formed a local compact to fire every unworthy, immoral rum-gouging booefighter, and had done so, did they turn the tide in their favor. "The Negro in Agriculture" was discussed by the heavy farmers present, several of whom are on the executive committee, for in this State the farmer and the business man are joined together and work in harmony. Four banks in operation and two in formation were reported League to Meet Next Year in Houston. The citizens of Waco turned out en masse at the banquet which closed the league's laborers.

The principal in honor of the departed New York is a collossal Miami Valley tablet with a bronze tablet by Tiffany into the surface and having up its inscription, "Paul Laurens Deer" and the following verse from his Death Song. "Lay me down beneath de willers in de graves. What de branch will go a singin' as it goes." won't is a layin' low. I like hear it as it go.

Among those about the monument were Dr. Davis W. Clarke, of Cincinnati Judge C W Dustin, the leader and chief spirit of the program of arrangements. President W S Scarborough of Wallerforce University, orator of the day, Mrs. Dunbar, the aged mother of the poet, and many well-known members of the race. The program was as follows Invocation Rev G A Funkhouser Song - A Prayer" (Dunbar) By Philharmonic Society Address Prof W S Scarborough Song - A Hymn" (Dunbar) By Philharmonic Society Address Re davis W Clark, DD Song—"The Warrior's Prayer" (Dunbar) Philharmonic Society Planting of willow Delivery of deed to Mrs Dunbar Benediction Rev E W B Curry History of the Movement. The first step toward a permanent memorial to Paul Laurence Dunbar was letter by Dr Davis W Clark, of Cincinnati, to the Dayton Journal on February 15, 1906. He said in brief "Paul Dunbar deserves a monument for years to come visitors to Dayton will seek the grave of this port laureate the Negro race. It should be worthily located and marked. If agreeable to his mother, I suggest a popular subscription and be the high privilege of being the first subscriber. I name a very mod sum that many may join in it." By March 7, 1998, an account was opened by Dr. Clark with the President Savings Bank, credit to the Dumbar Memorial Fund, and circulars were sent out to many cities in the United States in the name of the following local committee: Judge C W Duston chairman, Mrs Frank Conner Dr. Dr G A Funkhouser, Lerra M Kulisz Prof J W Carr Mrs Aila Doold Prince Roy Elmer Willis Serl Charles W Higgins Edward W Deaton Moses J Jones Mrs W P Callahan Mrs Joseph R Gebhart Prof Charles B Notlton, J Buchanan Sulers Prof Edward J Brown Mrs Sallie B Stuttsum Personal letters were also sent to many prominent literary men who had early recognized Dumbart's genius to inspire their cooperation. It was not difficult. The idea appealed by force of its own appropriateness and touched those whose hearts had been touched by the poets' verses. The following persons agreed to act as an advisory committee. Rev Dr David Wasgast Clark 222 W Fourth Street, Cincinnati) O. Col Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Boston Mass. Dr Booker I. Washington Tuskegee Ma. Dr Layl Colbert (Cincinnati) Hon J Wiley Crawford (O. R) Dr M C B Massengill (O. R) Dr H A Holes Toledo O. Mrs Mary T Higginson Cambridge Mass.

Capt Chattos Young Willerforce College Since the incorporation of the plans as outlined by Dr. Davis in June, contributions have been coming in steadily from both white and colored admirers of Dumbar. No canvass for subscriptions has been made to the committee believing it best to allow the offerings to come by two will of the contributors. It is a sign of respect to Dumbar's genius that the colleges and student corps of ten colleges are represented in the list of subscriptions while many simple private colleges have been received. The late lame of Dr. Edward Kerritt Hale was a warm friend and admirer of the poet, and many months since he practically locally by holding a Dumbar memorial service in his own church and a guest offering was remitted to Dr. Dumbar. Col. Hirsch, Wentworth Higginson also a calling the attention of the po- erty to the Boston to the memorial by a letter to the transcript quoting Dr. Hirsch letter to the journal and sug- gure the plan for a monument which he has been carried out. Mr Frank Hirsch of Dodd Mead & Co. also approved of the granite boulder and the reception. By March 1907 there was nearly five hundred dollars to the credit of the fund and the committee took in mediates toward the fulfillment of the wishes of the subscribers. June 27 is the poet's birthday that being Sunday, it was decided to hold the exer- cise on Saturday, June 26 Thurytown Pastor Exehangens. The A M E. Zion Church gave to the pastor, Rev. L. H.

Journalist and Agitator Dilem of Parallel Jails—Mayer Fuller Honored. Special to THE NEW YORK AUGE Boston July 11 - Mr. John W. Shaw, one of the most widely known journalists of the Negro race, died Monday, July 5 in Cambridge, Mass., where he has resided since his incarceration by paralysis many years ago. He was born in Antigua, W. I. At an early age he came to America, and when he reached the eligible age he at once became a naturalized citizen After travelling in the Southern States, he taught school for a while he returned North and located at Blushing L. I., where he entered politics. His independent disposition led him among the Democrats, and he became a conspicuous figure in their conventions. He was one of the first colored Tammany office holders. Among race journalists he was a pioneer, publishing in New York City in 1881 a paper which called forth confluences from the pen of Henry Watterson Mr Shaw's last journalistic venture was made in Buffalo, where he edited the leonoclast. Since coming to Boston he has contributed articles to the Boston Transcript, which have justly received the attention of the Associated Press. Some of them were afterwards compiled and published in pamphlet form under the title of 'The Race Question by a Negro and 'Tangled seems the latter publication as a means of portraying them in insight and prophetic power of the writer. During his early illness, Hon Moorfield Stores was his benefactor. But for the last three years Dr Booker T. Washington has contributed a comfortable allowance Mr Shaw's wife and only child, a daughter, died a few years ago, leaving him without a relative in this country. One of the most interesting pages in his life is in his residence abroad. He passed nearly eight years in London and there he was an active agitator on the platform of the working classes. Coming back to America with his mind stored with the world's politics, he has made a mighty effort to give the race the benefit of his study but the rapidly growing malady thwarted his purpose somewhat, but those who knew him personally knew the keenness of an event balanced mind which to the last was invulnerable to the disease that paralyzed his utensils and placed him among the dead. He was buried from the Union Baptist Church last Friday. Dr J W. Henderson of the Charles Street Church officiated. He was assisted by Res. Jesse Hartrell. Nurge and Mr. H. L. Honor were the hosts and Hon. Huey C. Gulliver and Mr. and Mrs. David C. Beckford were the guests of honor at a brilliant reception given recently at their home 650 Massachusetts avenue. Hon. Huey C.

Great interest seems to be centered on the Williams and Walker Company, owing to the temporary illness of George W Walker of the well known team. Mr Walker is spending the summer in Mt Clemens, Mich., and the writer is in position to make the authoritative announcement that the comedian will not appear before the footlights during the coming season, and that if he adheres to his present arrangements he will likely remain off the stage for at least two seasons The temporary retirement from the stage of George W Walker does not mean that there will not be a Williams and Walker show this season, however. Great preparations are being made by B Ray Comstock, connected with the Shubert office, to present the big comedian in a big production which will rival, from a spectacular standpoint, any colored production ever offered to the public. For weeks Jesse A Shupp and Alex. Rogers have been busy engaged in writing a musical comedy in three acts For Mr Williams, and J Rosamond Johnson of Cole and Johnson has been composing the hon' s shirt of the musical numbers Bert Williams and Al Johns are writing a few of the light numbers Alex Rogers' most difficult problem at this time is finding a second "Nobody" for the great comedian Alda Overton Walker Has Not Signed. According to rumors that seem to be well-founded Aida Overture Walker, the wife of George W. Walker, has not signed with the new show, and there is a possibility of her not being seen with the big aggregation during the season of 1909 to 1910. It is said that the clever performer was offered a contract some weeks ago, but that she and the management have not been able agree on several items thus no signatures have been attached to a Williams and Walker contract There has been some talk of Aida Overton Walker appearing in a show the approaching season under the management of Hurtig and Seamon, late managers of Ernest Hogan and the first to manage Williams and Walker. The writer does not place much credence, if any, in the rumor for in the first place Hurtig and Seamon are not enthusiastic over putting out a colored show at this time and in the second place, as the writer knows, considering their present standing with Stair and Havlin, it is doubtful if they could get booking through that office. Of course, the theatrical business is very uncertain, there are alliances one day and new ones the next. Managers who are denied booking in an office one week are found to have entree and are in good favor the following week, so we would not be greatly surprised to see Hurtig and Seamon take out "The Oyster Man" Company with Aida Overton Walker—only we do not believe it highly probable. Other Old Facen to be Mlased. Other Old Faces to be Missed. It is likely that if Miss Walker does not go with the Williams and Walker Company that she will appear in vaudeville. Several weeks ago she made her debut in the variety world with a number of her dancing girls, but the act did not seem to please the managers, and she had some difficulty in securing booking. However, she appeared at the American Theatre Monday with eight dancing girls in what was termed "her sensational dance Africque—the Kara Kara," and was one of the hits of the bill. Should she decide to remain in vaudeville, it is likely that she will appear alone, as the majority of her dancing girls have already signed contracts to go with the Williams and Walker Company In the advent of Miss Walker not becoming a member of the big musical production her place will be filled by Lottie Grady, who made an enviable reputation at the Pekin Theatre as an actress, a dancer and a mimi. Miss Grady is not well known outside of the "Windy City," but the management of the Williams and Walker Company feels confident that she will make good if given an opportunity. There will be several other old faces missing in the Williams and Walker Company next season, it being the desire of Mr Williams to have a number of new people. Rehearsals will commence about the latter part of July, and it is probable that the new show will open in the West-St Louis or Kansas City-on Labor Day Few Changes in "The Red Moon." Cole and Johnson will appear in their second season of "The Red Moon," and aside from a few changes in the cast the show will be about the same as last season. There will be a slight change in the dialogue in several places throughout the piece and a few new songs. Abbie Mitchel has been re-en-gaged; in fact, the only two members of the cast likely to be missed will be Theo Fankey and Andrew Tribble. Up to this point the management and the above- named portraits have not been able to come to portraits. Frank Lawler Brown has been closed to succeed. Theo Pankey and John Jackson will be Andrew Trouble portraits. Rehearsals will start next about August 1st and the show will start about August 20. Its first city engagement will be Jersey City. Dudley in a New Piece. Very little has been said of the Smart Set Company, led by S. H. Dudley and there was a great special week ago the company emailed an email Buttion and Wevel had to teach an argumentative lesson to a quoted blog season. Whatever have been the differences between the management of the comedian it can be said without fear of contradiction that all differences have been patched up and that Mr. Dudley will head the Smart Set Company in a new show.

In speaking of the colored comedian the Brooklyn Eagle said "Few white comedians possess the humor and unction that are the distinguishing characteristics of Bert Williams. The comedian was accorded recall after recall." Up to this writing it cannot be said that the summer shows generally have been very successful. From what the managers say in the post the public has been affected with so many bad shows during the warm weather that it does not feel like taking a chance to smother looking at an unknown quantity with the temperature hovering around 90 degrees on the shade. Lark Delvins of the "Red Moon Company" has taken to a new form of investment tracing to aid stant cities in New York to Boston by means of the electric car stopping for several hours at the various large cities on route. His fare cost him three dollars and it is sad he up at about six dollars' worth of food by the time he reached the "Hob" city. We are in receipt of a post card from Rudolph Voekelk manager and proprietor of the "Black Patti Trouhada" showing the wreck on the Northern Pacific eight miles east of Miles City, Mont which occurred May 10. The special car occupied by the "Black Patti Trouhadours" was the only one that was not derailed. On the post card Manager Voekelk writes "It was a pretty close call for us all" From information received, the Pelkin Stock Company, of Chicago, is a thing --- --- --- of the past. The temperature was not a profitable one for manager Motts, and he has declared that more stock companies for me will Harrison Stewart has gone into vaudeville and we hear that his act is a good one. Lotte Grady is making preparations to come to New York to join the Williams and Walker Company. Just what the other members of the aggregation are doing we have not yet accretained.

Cooper, who has been made physician for the association John B Nail has been made an honorary member . . . Epps and Lauretta have returned to the city for the summer and are at 61 West 133d street. During a part of last season George Epps had charge of a number of performers who were with the Creole Slave's Revenge Company. At the office of THE AGE Tuesday he made the following statement for publication: "Upon my arrival in New York City I was surprised to hear many false reports about me not paying salaries to the people whom I employed with Creole Slave's Revenge Company. All who are familiar with the theatrical business know that a show of that kind always hold back the first three days and gives half salary for the first two weeks. Now, when the show laid off half a week, we got pay for the time we worked. I paid the people as I agreed, and as the money was paid to me. If I got the money, they received theirs. All this was explained to them before they started, and all were satisfied then. Now, what is the need of complaining?" IN THE SPORTING WORLD (BY LESTER A WALTON) Writers Say Jeffries is Fourth Washing WHEREHER Jim Jeffries did or did not make the statement in loronto, Canada, a few evenings ago that he would never fight. Clopk Johnson that he could not give old class and was not partisan about fighting beyond the color line it has given us an opportunity to learn just what the mavericks of white sporting writers really think of him. The consensus of opinion is that Jeffries has been handling the public the longest and most honest lion that has been picked from the tree for some time. Such has also been our opinion of Ingram. He has appealed to the white man's sensibilities from a racial standpoint, knowing that the most formidable opponent of the black champion would be erased as a Moses by the white population. He has made more easy money than he ever did in his life, and all by taking the public. Kauffman, Ketchel and other white fighters are more in line to make easy money than Jeffries, for they are likely to meet the champion of the world, and Jeffries has never thought of meeting Johnson in the ring. He has rightly taken the sobriquet of "Quince" from any other fighter who ever carried it. The associated press and other carriers of news have been particular that no news be sent over the wire that tended to injure the white fighter, and it is strange that he should be so or reconstrucly misquoed. Here is what he is supposed to have given out in an interview. "I won't fight Johnson, for I have decided to quit the fighting game. I can't get into my old class and I don't want to fight beyond the color line anyway. I would like to see the championship go to a white man but I can't go in to retrieve it myself. "There are plenty of men who can trim this man Johnson, and I wouldn't wonder if it would be an unexpected hoosier. But the fans might as well count me out." Jeffries Hua Been Stringing Public. So many white writers have been charging Jeffries of stringing the public since the alleged announcement from Montreal that he has come out in a denial stating that he has promised to meet Johnson and will meet him at the proper time. Just when he considers the proper time is a deep, deep mystery possibly to some but we believe we are right when we state that Jeffries will never fight Johnson. His mind might be willing but his flesh is to the opposite. He will never be able to get in condition for a big match and when his theatrical tour ends he will hit himself to his western home where he will possibly live for ever afterwards, giving thanks to Jack Johnson for according him the opportunity to make a bunch of money he cause of the existence of race prejudice in this country, and laughing at his white brothers for having been so easily faked. The following article taken from the New York Evening Mail expresses the sentiment of most of the white writers. We have it at last, and it's official coming straight from Jim Jeffries. He is not going to fight Jack Johnson or any one else. All this means that Jeffries has been stringing the public since early last spring, when he came here to pick up some easy money giving sparring exhibitions. "Jeffries said at that time that he would fight Johnson if after a few weeks' work he thought he could get back into condition Six weeks ago he made the announcement that he would be ready for Johnson in about six months. But this was only a blind to coax the people to the theatres he was showing at Jeffries knew six months ago that he could not get down to fighting weight and be strong Now that this theatrical tour is about to end and he has gathered about $40,000, he is going back to Los Angeles and look after his booze emporium. Once more the public has fallen for the buck. A Lesson in Colors for Sporting Editor of the World. The sporting editor of the New York World may be a good writer on prize fighting baseball and racing but his wonderful ignorance on chromatology, which to be more down to earth, means a creative and study of colors, such that we feel in the interest of humans we should give him a bit of information on a subject which he seems to know nothing. For some reason a few days ago he found it necessary to give no little attention to a colored reader who wrote to him charging that he showed considerable race antipathy in his criticisms of Champion Jack Johnson. The author of the letter signed to "Henry Graves, a colored gentleman." In several instances the letter was insulting and evidently aroused the art of the sporting editor who at first tried to be diplomatic but in the end his librarian blood got the best of him and he showed tight. This was the sporting writer's answer. "You have your wish Mr Greves and without knowing you I accept your description of yourself and believe you are a colored gentleman whatever in the great Halifax that may be. I know lots of negro gentlemen (Negro spelled with a small p) including Booker T Washington and Charlie Anderson, but they would hate to be called colored." "Black is not a color." "Then what is it?" P S "Mr Colred Gentleman the words wura wura mean trouble trouble. If you want more of that commy dirty write to me." We have nothing to do with the controversy between the sporting writer and Henry A. Graves. But we wish to inform the scribe that in his statement that black is not a color and intimates that there is no such thing as a colored gentleman he is making it hard for the white race and making it possible for Henry A. Graves to prove to him that there are no white gentlemen—some thing we know to be untrue. If as a result to the science of colors black is not a color we are taught that neither is white. Therefore if there are no colored gentlemen can there be any white gentlemen? We bring to your attention what kind of a gentleman is the sporting culture of the World? Longford Bolks at Terms Trouble Breaking In Colored Baseball League When the last "all season opener" Ace made the statement that all was peace and harmony in the International League of Colored Baseball Club's and that there would probably be a new hance formed before the end of the season which would leave Nat Strong out as booking agent. At the time Sol White, of Philadelphia, and this season manager of the Quaker Giants, and "Pop" Watkins, of Brooklyn, were clamoring for dates from the league. They were told however that they could not get any booking from the Nat Strong office and that they would have to get games the best they could. This attitude of Nat Strong led to an effort by Sol White to get Manager Connor of the Royal Giants to leave the International League and form a new association. At the time Manager Connor thought it best to remain with the old organization. I from what we learn the owner of the Royal Giants has changed his views on many things in baseball recently and is thinking of leaving the International League of Colored Clubs. It is said that he is planning to form a combination with Manager Bright of the Cuban Giants, who is supposed to be in disfavor with the Strong faction because he has seen fit to book his team in a number of games without the sanction of Nit Strong. Manager Counor, who has the strongest and best attraction of all, does not think he is being given the proper consideration in the matter of booking dates. I evidently the booking department of the league is not as firm in its intentions to keep out some of the teams that were refused booking the first part of the season for July 1. Pop Watkins' Giants played two games with the Brighton Athletic Club at Meyerse Park, Ridgewood, one of the principal parks of the association. In the moment they as Managers Counor and Bright are going to gether Royal Glinta Again Defent Quakers Last Sunday the Royal Giants and the Philadelphia Giants met at Moverre c Park and it was the same old story The New York team won. The game how ever, was the best that has been played between the two teams this season.

CHURCHES. Bureau Over Disposition of Avery —Other News from Pitts- burg. PITTSBURG, PA., July 12—Rumors of dissatisfaction among the A M E. churches and a threatened law suit to compel Bethel Church to divide the Avery Fund more equally among her sister churches, caused your correspondent to make efforts to ascertain the cause of the trouble Years ago a philanthropist of this city interested in the welfare of the Negro people left several thousand dollars to be used in the interest of the A M E. churches At that time it is said Bethel A M E. Church was the only one here, and the money was therefore left in its charge Property of such value was also given Bethel, and its management thought it too valuable to rent Negroes Only about four years ago Negro tenants were accented As Methodist churches grew in number, Bethel would divide the funds, but it is said favoritism has been shown. A prominent member of the opposition recently remarked that Euclid Avenue A. M. E. Church, on the East End, which is known as one of the most prosperous churches in the city, receives $100 annually from the Avery Fund, which is more than St Paul A M. E. Church on the S. S., and which is said to be in such a poor financial condition that it has not made a payment on its mortgage for nine years. The opposition also claim that Bethel not only refuses to allow members of other churches to join the trustee board, but refuses to make a report of the deposits of the funds for more than five years back. It is said the Avery Fund has been in the possession of Bethel over sixty years. Rev P. E. M. pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church, was seen and expressed himself as follows "The Age has published so many lies about churches and especially this church, I refuse to say anything for publication. Then, too," concluded the pastor, "this is a matter that concerns our church and not the public." When told that the policy of THE Age is to publish news without showing favoritism or prejudice to persons or organizations, and that it falsehoods about Bethel had been published, it was because they were received from sources that were considered reliable, the reverend grew less belligerent and discussed the matter in a manner in keeping with his position, both as minister and a Christian gentleman. When asked to name some of the falsehoods published about Bethel, Rev Mills said one of the most erroneous statements, made was that this church is holding services in a poorly ventilated chamber, and that its main auditorium is not near completion. "We are arranging to have our dedicatory services next Sunday," concluded the pastor, "and if you will go with me I will show you a completed church, said to be one of the finest in Allegheny County." The church was founded in 1827, and as has received more help than any other church in Western Pennsylvania. An interesting program has been arranged for Sunday Bishop Derrick and others will sing the praises of Bethel. The home of Mr and Mrs Edward Potter, 104 Jackson street, North Side, was the scene of a pretty debultate party last Friday evening in honor of their daughter. Miss Olive Howard Miss Howard is said to be a very amable and accomplished girl who will add much to the city's truly representative young women. Coveres were laid for forty.

Fila Frazier, Josephine McDaniels, Mrs Arthur Boyd, Albert Anderson, George Lewis, Geo Douglass and Benjamin Sandon Rev Scott Wood, priest in charge of St. Augustine Episcopal Mission, 319 Jackson street, North Side, is receiving congratulations for the good work he has accomplished as pastor. In his annual address to the forty fourth annual convention of Episcopalians, Bishop Whitehead praised Rev Wood. Wood's work here in high terms. In less than four years Rev Wood has raised $10,000, has increased the membership from eight to 135, bought their present place of worship for $5,500, which is nearly paid for. Rev Wood is negotiating for the purchase of more property. That purchase in the city will be used for his mission, and the present place will be converted into flats which will rent for $100 a month. The farm which the priest will purchase will be used for summer outings. Rev Wood is very much interested in settlement work. He is accomplishing much good in that direction, and is arranging to close his summer work in the Hill district by giving one hundred friendless children an outing at Riverview Park. In the early fall settlement work will be resumed. The Mission is arranging for a Japanese Garden Party on July 20 and its fourth annual picnic on August 12. The party will be given at the Mission, 319 Jack street, and the picnic at Southern Park. The ladies of the Mission gave a dinner recently to the crippled men at 21 Barnaba's Home. The home is located at McKeesport and does not draw the color line in receiving inmates.
