It was moved back three hundred years and the drama of the city's history was unfolded by fifty four little boats people with 15,000 costumed tourists. This panorama of history was truly a brilliant one, and, aside from the spectacular feature of the parade, it was of an instructive nature and illustrated the great advancement the nation has made within three hundred years. Every nation was represented in the parade Nearly three hundred Negro citizens took part, and were preceded by the New Amsterdam Band under the direction of Walter F Craig.

LOS ANGELES, CAL., Sept. 27.—Rev. Reynold E. Blight, minister of The Fellowship Church, made a strong address at Blanchard Hall, this city, on "Justice to the Negro," in which he scored the Dugro decision, and declared that the success of the United States depends on the development of sympathy and co-operation between the races. The address in part "Mushy sentimentality and quixotism will never solve the race problem. It is not a matter of intermarriage or social equality. It is a question of justice. We shall have trots, lynchings, turmil and conflict just so long as we tense the Negro's rights." The Negro has a right to be treated as a man not as a best an alter, or a child. The rights guaranteed by the constitution as an error in citizenship are properly his. The first step toward ( freedom is the recognition of manhog) Sav what you will against the Negros a race that can produce such characters as Lounissant L'Overture, Frederick Douglass, Prof Dubois and Booker L. Washington is worthy of the largest contribution from the proudest race on earth. In the demands that the Negro shall not be discarried against because of the first may be character, et al. by the next, but the right thinking man is never preached against color. He not be given the advantage of education to his mind may be enlise in all his love to the life of his child. He not be complied with the law, he is not to be with him to the life of his own way and make good. But he is not to be in any place in the future. The first thing to be done is to be with the whole world of the world. The first thing to be done is to be in the future. The first thing to be done is to be in the future. The first thing to be done is to be in the future. In the demands that the Negro must meet in the struggle for freedom, the white man must and the black man must represent the spirit of Nature, the law, the force and being in the development of the economy and the development between the nature and the mighty. When a commonwealth each race has a duty to perform, and they must work together for the elimination of all causes of contention and suspicion and the cultivation of all things that promote harmony, prosperity and the happiness of all." WHY PEARY TOOK HENSON Explorer Given Three Reasons for Taking Negro in Final Dash BAR HARBOR, ME, Sept 28—The question of why Peary selected Matthew Henson, his colored lieutenant, to accompany him on his final dash to the North Pole instead of taking the scien- THE NEW YORK AGE AS AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM Has broken all records for advertising during the month of September. Fall advertisements are now in order and THE AGE is ready for the rush. See THE AGE advertisements. This applies equally to the landlord and tenant; buyer and seller; manager and performer. THE AGE asks its readers in and out of New York City to test its usefulness as an advertising medium. tists of the party was powered here by the explorer as follows: "There are three reasons why I took Henson on the last journey. The first was because of his age in 1894, when all the party members lack except Henson and Lee. The second, because Henson can handle the dogs and a sledge as well as an army and be able to move them, and I never had on an expedition, nor north. The third was that I was only white man who could afford the walk and take supplies from the sledge on the last dash. Capt. Henson never had the idea that he was meant to the pole so far as I know." Exact Date for Attendance Not Been Named—Negro in New York Cook Controversy. According to the newspaper having in charge the arrangement for the big reception to Matthew Brown, the Negro Arctic explorer, the Navy will be held next week at the Manhattan Casino. The exact date will not been selected. Henson is signing prominently in the controversy relative to whether Dr. Cook was at the New York Role, and in his last interview said: "I know every Easian Cook had with him, and I have heard with them all since their return to their igloos at Eatah. What they have in concerning Dr. Cook's trip north, I cannot say at this time. "I want to say this through, that Dr. Cook was a greenhorn when he went north on his last expedition. He didn't know any more about building sledges than my grandmother. He may have taken the material for building them north with him, but they wouldn't do him any good. I have heard that his brother built his sledges for him. "Another thing I want to say about Dr. Cook and his trip there is that he knew nothing about Esquimaua dogs. Why, I do not know, he could or can harness a dog, privately, and as for driving a team, that is the most laughable. Esquimaux spent their lives trying to drive dogs over the mud and ice. It takes a mighty husky well-trained Esquimaua to get his attention over the sea ice, and by sledging down the highest type of sledge, the Esquimaua didn't have those or know nothing about making them. He had it when he was with the chief minister in 1903. He never got any experience with trip of sea ice or sledging." Declares in Telegram to Parsons that He Hopes Republican Nominee Will Be Elected. At the City Republican Convention held last week, Otto T. Bannard, well-known business man, was nominated for Mayor, and will be the chief opponent of the Tammany nominee. Mr. Bannard will very likely receive the Federal and State support in his fight for Mayor. President Taft has already made known that he favors the Republican nominee. President Herbert Parsons, president of the New York County Republican Committee, is in receipt of the following telegram from the President. "I am just in receipt of your despatched advice me that Otto T. Bannard has been nominated for Mayor of New York City. I sincerely hope he will be elected not alone because he is a Republican, and not because of any mere party considerations, but because I know he will give to the people of the City of New York such an administration as they have not had for many a year. "It is a comfort to be able to hear testimony to his disinterested patronage in his great administrative ability, his broad minded common sense, coupled with the highest governmental ideals. An intimate friendship of thirty years enables me to hear witness to his high character as a man and his peculiar stress for the responsible and difficult office for which he has been nominated."

CONFERENCE Assignment of Ministers Interesting Topic—Conference of 4th Episcopal District in Session. Special to The New York Am. CHICAGO, IL., Sept. 28.—Members of the A. M. E. Church here are considerably stirred up over the possible action of the conference of the Fourth Episcopal District now in session, with reference to the assignment of ministers for the ensuing year. There are eight established A. M. E. churches in this city, and it seems that all the ministers in charge want to remain in Chicago. Dr. D P. Roberts of Quinn Chapel, Dr. A. J. Carey of Bethel, Rev. Ferrebee of Wayman Chapel, Rev. Jesse Woods of St John's, Rev. Sisson of St. Mary's, Rev. Wilson of St. Stephens and Rev. Stewart of the Institutional Church are the Chicago pastors who are subject to change and transfers. Dr. A J Carey has had a charge in Chicago continuously during the past ten years serving the limit of time in the two largest churches in Chicago and perhaps in the West. Although under a rather stringent church law, he is not eligible to service in either of the two big churches, great pressure is being brought to bear to keep him in Chicago as the members of his congregation think highly of him. Dr. Roberts of Quinn Chapel is very popular and has many friends in and out of the church. A determined effort is being made to have him transferred to Bethel A M. E. Church. He has made a fine record and has always been in charge for four years. He has in the matter of size and influence. The Institutional Church is the center of much anxiety Rev. Stewart has been in charge for four years He has expressed a desire to be changed. How far such a request is apt to find favor with the Bishop remains to be seen. This is a church of peculiar promise It has never yet realized the high purposes of its origin. It has been handicapped from the beginning by lack of members and outside or non-demonstrational co-operation. This has now been so much the fault of the minister in charge of lack of money and a fraternal spirit of usefulness on the part of the sister churches As to the outcome of the conference' deliberations in the matter of assignments no one will venture to anticipate and the "powers that be" have assumed an air of indifference that would cause an outsider to conclude that nothing out of the ordinary was going on during the conference DICKINSON ON TAFT Secretary of War Talks of the President's Policy Relative to Appointing Negroes to Office Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. NASHVILLE, Tenn. Sept. 27. In his speech here last week while discussing President Taft and the South, Secretary of War Dickinson, in referring to the President and the race issue, said: "It should not be forgotten that while the President is sympathetic with the South and the unfortunate conditions peculiar to it, he is a Republican and a Northern man. For that reason it should not be expected that he would accept in its entirety the Southern new He understands," he added, that this is a broad deep seated race question that can be ignored or argued out at will and that for the peace of the nation it is the part of wisdom that such appointments should not be made, and he publicly declared this to his policy, and has carried it out He holds with his distinguished predecessor who declared in his fury's speech made in New York before the League of Nations that of the race issue he made. While he is stating the facts in his speech we should not ignore his It is the duty of the government to govern the government should be one of furness and to give a general order of law and not to pass the courts and Negries should be protected on their property right settled with NEW YORK ADVERTISING M ords for advertising during the s are now in order and THE tisements.

Those who established the commonwealth of Tennessee, such men as James Robertson, John Sevier, and Andrew Jackson, would have spurned with indignation the very suggestion that in time of peace they did not have virtue and manhood enough to enforce the law through the courts. The cankering virus of mob rule, no matter against what evils directed, destroys all wholesome life in the body politic, and makes it a polluted wreck, swayed by passion, and incapable of the ordinary administration of law."

Burlington Citizens Show Courtesy to Fighting Teeth at Big Celebration. Special to THE New York Agn. BURLINGTON, Vt. September 20—That the members of the Tenth Cavalry, stationed at Fort Ethan Allen, and the citizens of Burlington are on very friendly terms was evidenced by the courtesy shown the Negro soldiers on Policemen's and Firemen's Day. The band and troops of the Tenth Cavalry had the most prominent place in the parade, and they were the guests of honor during the day. They were warmly applauded and the good feeling that exists between the Burlington people and the troopers was shown in many ways. During the parade a high-spirited cavalry must often move even more charge of the company's guideon became frightened by the falling of a flag and started down the street at full speed, dragging the flag with him. Midst the hearty applause of all, one of the troopers seized the horse and stopped him within a few yards of the starting place ( changes in Washington Public Schools.

Began Warnerov, D. C., September 20.—Dole offers the efforts which seem to have come from a spectacle that seem to be public service, akin to pessimism and discontent at the National Capital characterized the Negro citizens, the political warden of white apprehension and discontent fry. If what is reported may be generally believed, as the hours of service, the sound of the facility of the past style of camouflage has been fully realized by those who desire to sit up to the strife in the government of government by Negro officials. summarize the school bells have been tolling for well-drawn a fortnight. Promotional transfers and appointments in the school system were recommendations to the Board in accordance and the school administration in accordance with their ideas of what should be, unsupervised by the hypocritical judgments of the big ex-politicians who constitute the domestic portion. Since the opposition has indicated its willingness to join the ranks engaged in the progressive readiness of colored Washington's business, political and educational resources. Another portion of the street breathing spell will during a street breathing spell a new attack upon the sentient an unprovoked public. The steady progress of the Negro business man, it is apparent, has reached a point where its demands are met, its demands are met and given proper orientation. The Business High School, which has constituted a part of the Armstrong Manual Training Curriculum since the creation of P street, has moved to the old Mt. Building, near Howard University, being at present under the principalship of Dr. Wilson Bruce Evans, also principal of the Armstrong School, with a former teacher of the business school, but not the very remote future, it is likely that this school will be entirely separate from its former organization, and will receive greater funding. The school also serves as regards its teaching corps and equipment. Several candidates have prepared themselves to meet the competitive requirements for the principalship of this new admissions branch. The school is strongly favoring local young men. The policy of the new educational regime is everywhere manifest in the columns of its latest publication under the editorial management of Garnet C. Willkinson. The president William V. Cox of the Board of Education, who is also a trustee of Howard University, has contributed an article to the new magazine on "The Retirement of Howard University, Under this school," in part. "Next to the physical condition of the school property, nothing impressed the hard than the need of retiring teachers, and the need of providing care, are no longer able to render efficient service. The board believes that the measure as presented in simple and practical terms, will improve the school system and the community will far outweigh the expense incident to the administration of the law. The retirement for disability or for institutional reasons will more merit the institute's position on account of merit, health and intelligence. Emmet J.

BOSTON NOTES BOSTON NOTES regular Correspondence of the Age. Boston, Mass., September 28—A colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A. for Boston is the all-important among those who come to Boston, and people here just now. Colored young men who come to Boston, not only from the South but from all parts of the world, can and no conversation with them freely and at home, and surrounded by those enlightening Christian influences which were so much interwoven in their daily lives while with their parents in the land of their nation. The result is those who have no friends or relatives here go about the city in an almness endeavor to find some place where they can meet and talk to those moments which come into every one's life at times, and make time seem to hang heavy on one's hands. Consequently, they frequent the poolrooms, where they can be likely to degrade to elevate them. There is a Y. M. C. A. in Boston, to be sure, but it, like the many hotels and the Negroes at the Hub are so proud, is controlled by the whites, and, in short, was intended for them. Colored people who come to Boston must just be austere. M. A. as they are at any of the other institutions, especially as so few go there. The colored members of the association are number twenty five, and the colored membership of the association to-day is as large as it ever has been, and of those few who have mustered up courage ought to be more conspicuous than are consistently conspicuous by their absence from the association rooms. The most conspicuous colored member of the association is Ratum, who is a member of the association track team. Mr Batum is a favorite with the association members, and is held in high esteem by the officers, not the rutes, just as in all cases in the North where the blacks and whites mingle in a sort of social way. There is not room enough to accommodate the whites, and when their new building is finished, which is in contemplation for erection, there still will not be room enough to accommodate the One of the white association officers admitted frankly to a representative of the people here don't go to the Y. M. C. A.; that there is a feeling among the whites as well as among the blacks, which perhaps has largely to do with the fact that the colored men need a branch of the Y. M. C. A., should have it, and will eventually have to have it; and that the white Y. M. C. A. stands and will be glad to assist them in getting it. All the different nationalities connected with the Y. M. C. A. here are organized into a membership of about 200 members, an Italian club with a membership of about 60; a Scandinavian club composed of eighty members, a membership was not conveniently at hand. The about 600 Catholics numbered among the Y. M. C. A. members. There is no colony, but recently a number of members, and a still smaller number of them, to be seen within the association rooms at any time. Only recently a colored woman was admitted by a representative, and it is insisting upon entering her son in the day class of the Y. M. C. A. school, which she was good enough to do not enter in the Y. M. C. A. day class. The agitation for a colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A. here was started about ten years ago, but the false notions and ideals handed down by tradition, which is characteristic of the average Negro who styles himself a "Bostonian," caused such an ugly howl among them that the idea has almost been whistled down. Dr. Cornelius McKane and his wife, Dr. Alice W. McKane, formerly of Savannah, Ga., are now situated in their home at 3 Marble street, near Warwick street. Dr. McKane began practicing medicine immediately after he graduated from the University of Vermont in 1891. Mrs. McKane began practicing in 1892, having graduated from the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania. Dr. and Mrs. McKane were married in 1893, and founded the McKane Hospital at Savannah the same year. The hospital was at first an institution for the treatment of diseases of women and children in 1801. It was made a charitable institution and its name was changed to "The Charity Hospital."

DICKINSON TO THE SOUTH. Secretary of War Dickinson at the Tennessee State Fair in Nashville last Wednesday made an earnest appeal to the South to respond to the efforts President Taft is making to bring about a greater racial harmony in her midst. In plain and pregnant words the vigorous Southern Secretary puts his finger upon the sore spot of the Southern situation, "the cankering virus of mob rule." That is the greatest deterrent to Southern progress. May these striking words be seed sown on good ground "If the white people assert the right to govern, then the Government should be one of fairness and justice, a government of law, and not of passion. The courts, and not mobs, should punish law-breakers. Negroes should be protected in their property rights, settled with justly and governed by the constituted authorities. Those who established the Commonwealth of Tennessee, such men as James Robertson, John Sevier, and Andrew Jackson, would have spurned with indignation the very suggestion that in time of peace they did not have virtue and manhood enough to enforce the law through the courts. The cankering virus of mob rule, no matter against what ends directed, destroys all wholesome life in the body politic, and makes it a polluted wreck, swayed by passion and incapable of the ordinary administration of law." We do not subscribe, however, to the extreme interpretation Mr Dickinson puts upon the President's Negro appointing policy. President Taft has never said that he will not appoint "Negroes to office in the South." Their right to hold office is corollary to their right to an equal ballot, upon which the President must, however, disproportional. The representation of the two races in federal appointments, the Negro should have the encouragement of such recognition. President Taft in his inaugural address said, "This just policy shall be pursued." The radical and monarchical position of Secretary Dickinson of appointing no 'Negroes to office in the South," England does not attempt even in her colonies Nor is it for the best interests of the South and the Negro that there be established a governed and a governing race in the South. This is a government by all the people and not by one race. --- PEABY, HENSON AND COOK. In the fight now opening for the settlement of the controversy as to whether Dr. Cook did or did not reach the pole, the part which Matthew Henson is playing is as creditable to the black man as it is important to the contenders. The credence with which Peary's coloured companion's words are accepted against the reported words of Cook's Eskimo companions is significant. In fact it seems that masmuch as Henson declares these companions admitted to him time and again that Dr. Cook did not leave the land line, his testimony will be relied on very largely to refute Cook's unsupported claim Henson's part in the Peary expedition looms up ever larger. Not only was he the most experienced and hardy member on the expedition aside from the commander himself, but in his popularity with the Eskimo and his knowledge of the language of the Etah tribe, Henson was probably not inferior to his chief. His knowledge of Arctic conditions, especially relative to land and sea ice travel, will probably be used as he himself intimates, to disprove Cook's ability to travel with two experienced boys over the sea. In short, if Peary's claim to be the real discoverer of the pole is established, it will be very large through his devoted adherent and companion. Whether or not that claim be established Peary's tourues to the pole will be of the greatest scientific value, and here again the help of Matthew Henson has been precious in its value. This is the man whom New York citizens under the leadership of Charles W. Anderson will banquet and receive No honor which they pay him can be full more than marked. We trust that they will not fail to do their utmost --- A SOUTHERN TRIBUTE. A rare soul indeed must have been Betty Porterfield," wife of Fleet Porterfield, of Charleston, W. Va., if the tribute of E. B. Kenna, the son of en-United States Senator Kenna, may speak. A visitor in his tender years at the home of the much-beloved Negro matron, in his paper, the Charleston Gazette, he pays her a tribute as beautiful and tender as it is touching. His words in memoram reveal the friendly side of the races in the South as nothing else from a Southern pen we have seen in a long time. They show the esteemed place held by many Negro women and men in the affection of the South's best citizens. They illustrate the genuine affection of grany courageous Southern white men, like Edward P Keuna, known far and wide as the "Sweet Singer of the Little Mountain State." The sweeter and purer side of Negro home life is little known and less recognized by Southern whites. Just so is the frank friendship of the better elements of the races masked and discounted in the passion of political discussion. Such open recognition as Editor Kenna has here given in his eulogy of his faithful friend, Betty Porterfield, comes as an inspiriting and healthful tone. --- THE COLORED Y. M. C. A. The Nineteenth Annual Conference of the Colored Men's Department of the Young Men's Christian Association of North America will be held in Louisville, Ky, December 2, 3, 4 and 5. The members of the Lousville Association are reported as making large preparations for the entertainment of their guests. It is generally expected that this will be the largest and most significant conference ever held by the colored department The colored branch of the Y M C A is no longer an experiment but a successful race institution. The questions as to where there should and should not be co-ored associations are constantly and properly arising. But for the most part these questions are trivial compared with the means and method of establishing strong race branches. Just how the gentlemanly elements of young men may be attracted to the branch during their leisure time just how the rough elements may be reached, just how the gospel of a pure and vigorous manhood may there be instilled into them, just how their social and moral upfit may be coupled with industrial and professional training, these are the big and timely questions before the coming convention Nowhere, certainly, nowhere in the North, has the branch Y M C A realized its possibilities. Our big cities furnish fruitful fields to the enthusiastic Y M C A workers. We trust that practical methods in solving these questions will be evolved at Loussalle. We hope that a great and needed impetus will there be given the Y M C A work among Negroes. PASSING OF ANOTHER PURITAN. In the death at Boston of Henry B. Blackwell, editor of the Woman's Journal, the Negro loses one of his staunch old time friends. White he had devoted his energy for the most part in recent years to the cause of woman suffrage, in slavery days he was among the most active and devoted exponents of freedom. But engrossed as he has been of late in the cause which owes so much to him and his equally ardent wife, the late Lucy Stone Blackwell, he lost no opportunity to speak to and in behalf of the Negro Though born in Bristol, England, May 4, 1825, he was early drawn into the free soil and anti-slavery movements in this country after coming to this country and locating at Cincinnati Having sheltered a slave girl, a price of $10,000 was once put on his head at a public meeting in Memphis Tenn. He was the early associate of William Lloyd Garrison, Julia Ward Howe and Col Thomas Wentworth Higginson The Negro laments the death of Henry B Blackwell as the passing of another grand old Puritan --- The Negroes of Lopeka, Kansas have taken a timely and profitable step by purchasing a large cemetery of their own. Contradictory as it may seem, there has been no race trouble on this score in the Kansas capital, but the Negroes there have simply demonstrated that they are alive to their opportunities. --- With ex Attorney General Burpee still knocking with constitutional Nudge summer blows against the Maryland disfranchisement bill, the Democrat will have been tested and there is no way in the camp.

The alarm which the persistent Southern alarmist, Judge Harris Dixon, in a current magazine attempts to ring on the devouring death race and degeneracy of the Negro needs scarcely more consideration that the average false alarm. It is only to be regretted that men may be so malicious as to disturb the innocent for a consideration. The great consoling fact in the case of the Negro alarmist species, however, is that the heyday of his era is past. His blight in the face of the Negro's progress has gone like the blights of the Western droughts of a generation ago before the advancing march of civilization. Adroit to the point of cunning the Southern solon has chosen diseases and places whose figures are unfavorable to the Negro and generalized concerning the Negro race. Though practiced in his art, the Southern siren singer has at last missed his mark by descending to cold facts and figures As a sample of his folly and his knavery, he cites Mobile and Charleston as examples of the Negro decline in the leading Southern cities. There, he says, before the war the death rate for Negroes was less than that for whites, while since the death rate for the black man in Mobile has become 50 per cent greater than that for the white man, and in Charleston 100 per cent. The census of 1900 says on this very point of Negro city population "In the largest Southern cities, that is, the 3 having at least 100,000 inhabitants, the Negro population increased 228 per cent, 1900 to 1900, the white population of the same cities increased only 208 per cent. In the thirty-eight cities of this class in continental United States the per cent of increase, 1890 to 1900, was 18 for Negroes and 127 per cent for whites. --- Physically Judge Dickson declares the Negro is on a trioogan skidding to death. While the last census speaks of a slight decrease in the death rate of Negroes during the decade 1890 to 1900 The American Negro has nearly troubled as the coming census will test his tournals of 1860 since that time and with no outside help. The white population of the United States with the present million a year of immigration has hardly more than doubled during the same period. Physical's the Negro still seems to be producing "Mat" Honours will. Fourth Collarmen and railroad firemen to whose stamina and endurance seven Southern railroads have just paid the obsequent tribute of fighting for their retention. Still the Judge says the Negro is "the weakest, the most predestposed to disease, the man with the least resisting power." It seems in point to refer the judge to the realms of heavyweight and middleweight pugilism. Medical science has done nothing for the Negro he declares, because the Negro will do nothing for himself. That the published polition of promise knew nothing of the great Tulareños Congress at Skukege last spring the better housing movements among Negroes North and South and the National Medical Association in its splendid convention in Boston last month is not surprising. The Judge continues his wishes with facts when he declares the Negro worse off physically than during slavery. Such available data as the Diary of a Northern Lady in the South during slavers should prove highly enlightening to him. She tells there of typical conditions where of 100 children born on a plantation on them died before maturity. When Negroes were worked to death in Louisiana sugar plantations, as truck horses were in our cities before the advent of human societies because it was more profitable than to let them live out a normal life the Judge does not take into account. When promissious breeding was enforced by the lash during slavers it hardly seems like's that the 30,000,000 married Negroes reported by the census for 1900 would indicate a moral decadence. So on through the grant of his errors, the Judge has taken counsel of his desires. The Negro has made and is making a phenomenal progress morally, materially, spiritually. The Judge authorizes that we want to know what EDUCRICAL AFTERTHOUGHTS There don't be one mistake to tell newpaper report that the Negroes of Laft Oklahoma annulated the state of one of three white men living there. The oriented leaders around Laft are an uneasy peril but, but fearing that the might living separate, they have long been together. ←←←←←←←← At the twenty-ninth Annual Session of the National Depot Convention, Negro's farm held a live, if not heated subject for discussion. Imprancing nearly every event at the convention, the body voted to throw the full weight of their support to the dills in the future. Governor Denemer of Illinois was so impressed by the Chicago Negro Trades exhibition that he warmly advocated the erection of a Negro building where they might have a permanent exhibition. If the Governor lived in our city a recommendation for the colored folk to make a permanent show would be unnecessary and a public building would be an impediment. Bursting out with a gesture of impatience, as the report goes, of Matthew Henson's dissection of Dr. Cook's claim, he says: "Any one who has traveled over the land ice will tell you that a man who has no practice sledging over the sea ice could never reach the pole." Now we are perfectly willing to defer to Mr. Henson, but we had always thought of but-one ice and that was water ice. True to their reputation, Boston Booklovers gave a more elaborate reception to their visiting guests at one of the most exclusive of Hub hostelries. No mention of books is contained in the report, but charming gowns were there in abundance, which only serves to illustrate how cultured folks can suppress all outward and obnoxious signs of learning.

Wintur Noyamiah G., Sept. 21, 1890 11.1.1.1 POWER REFLECTED from the Editorial Tribute to Colored Women by Son of I. S. Senator Betty Portterfield, wife of Fleet Portterfield, died on Thursday morning. The date of Betty Portterfield's birth no one can certainly say. She was born in the city of New York and in ninety and seventy years ago, in old Virginia. Betty Portterfield (was a woman who bore not only the respect but the affection of all who knew her. Kind, patient, considerate, brave, she lived her life in the city of New York. She died found her resigned and calm in the faith that in the life to come peace would be hers to assuage the memory of the suffering that she knew in this life. She was a faithful and loving wife and her husband had the sympathy of a host of people. She was a specter him, and who knew the worth of the splendid wife that he has lost. Betty Porterfield was a woman who was loved by the people of her race and held the friendship of the white people who knew her, and she numbered her friends. Betty, who has been the captive place for generations of youngsters whose parents would send them to Betty to enjoy one of her dinners with the confidence that the little ones would have the care and the attention that Betty, giving to her host of children, would give to her. She held the hearts of the little ones that she cared for so dearly. In her last illness, when the dread cancer made the question of her death a matter of but a few hours, she bore her sufferings and her pain, everything in her power to comfort the grief of her husband, who ministered to her like a mother caring for her sick child. Death came as a relief to Betty Porterfield, and as an opening of the gates into the promised Land, for her life was saved in the sweetness of its unselfishness and the beauty of its example. Death, when it comes to a person as good as was this, honest, true color, woman, comes not with much colour, rather comes it as a surprise of serenity, rather comes it as a loved loved ones. As Longfellow has said, "Death brings us again to our friends. They are waiting for us, and we shall be like the have gone before us, and are like the have gone before us, and stand upon the barriers of the grave to welcome us with the contenance of affection which they were on earth,—yet more beautiful than the earth. Her life was pure and her death brings her into the great reward that comes to those whom the Father loves. E. B. Kempa in Charleston (W Va.) Daily --- JIM AIKEN The Best Negro in the United States.

The Oakland (Cal) Sunshine The trial of Dallas Wright, white, in Buckingham County, Va., charged with the murder of the Sturarts is in many particulars a duplice of the Powhatan tragedy, whereby five colored men, presumably innocent were sent to the electric chair.

It assumes though that that assesor should be the ferrit and the testimony of the colored witnesses will prove to be worthless. It is sucking to witness the misranges of pasties now taking places throughout the Southland. We shall never forget the court of trial, which will no doubt tend to emplore the fact that there is great need of a change in our criminal jurisprudence as expounded and practiced in the commonwealth.

I M Bobby St Paul Mun DEMOCRATIC APOTHECISTS Baltimore American Diesels Dist Baltimore Measure—Peril to Foreign Liquids Like the old woman who said she had named her son Democritus and had spent most of her subsequent life in explaining to others why she had adopted the unusual designation, the Democritus masses are exploded their efforts in exerting unanimous purpose and have not yet devised a reason to relieve them of feeling that they thereby committed political folly. Any measure that is para-mount should be palpable. Any measure that is deemed the prime issue of a compass should be so clear that the man man though a fool, need not be a man man though a fool, need not be a man man using every ounce of unanimity and the special gifts of those trained to make the worse appear the better reason to a desperate effort to disclose some logic or virtue in the suffrage amendment. A thing that needs in overlasting string of apologists should be stressed with more than suspicion at the same light as unannounced midnight visitor with a child in his hands. The Democratic organ has begun a serial story on the general theme of why the amendment should not be regarded as a sulphurous product. It may strike some unthinking persons as pious and banned to recite the dry facts of history with prepositions, the great mass who know as to the adoption of amendments to the Federal Constitution forty years ago extending the franchise to the element of population which had previously been denied the rights of citizenship. They know that this element had not been regarded as persons in the law and that with their emancipation from social conditions changed and they were clothed with the rights of such. No one cares to thresh over the postbellum acts of the Federal Government in the Maryland campaign. The law is the law, and it is not the province of the voters of this State to deny its virtues or seek its avoidance prime obligation upon every right thought of in the Constitution. Hence John Preissman's making has digged of Maryland statutes, strick out the word "white" in the Maryland Constitution because it was counter to the Federal amendments. And this was the author of the first suffrage restriction amendment. Mr. Poe as a lawyer gave full recognition to the paranormal Constitution rather than the paramount Constitution rather. The man who seeks to lead the foreign born voter into the political ditch employs all names of arguments to convince such that it is better to be compelled to take cathay to the facts of their citizenship confessed upon them by the dignity of the Government rather with the position of the Democrat the ballot the election presented for foreign born voters upon the established facts of their rights according to the law is at now stands. The foreign born voter knows he now has the right to vote he does not know he will have with the amendment in force, granted that he is an elector the automatic one who will be compelled to take cathay to the facts of their citizenship when he is led upon and will be forced to vote American. Will he consent to the amendment? American. Will he consent to the lack of concession and will method not comment on the people to tatters. The foot is that the people of the Democratic defense is so sure that it seems a shame to kill the nasty things. They are not worth the effort. Baltimore Amerelan WILL AMERICA HELP England to Free Congo, Aksa Conan Doyle—England Cushelad. BY SIB ARTHUH CONAN DOYLE (Specially Contributed to the London Times.) There are many of us in England who consider the crime which has been wrought in the Congo lands by King Loopold of Helglum and his followers, to be the greatest which has ever been known in human annals. Personally, I am strongly of that opinion. There have been great expropriations like that of the Normans in England, or of the English in Ireland. There have been massacres of populations like that of the South Americans by the Spaniards, or of subject nations by the Turks. But never before has there been such a mixture of wholesale expropriation and wholesale massacre, all done under an often obvious guide of philanthropy, and with the lowest commercial motives as a reason. It is this sordid cause, and the unusual hypocrisy which make this crime unparalleled in its horror. The witnesses of the crime are of all nations, and there is no possibility of error concerning the facts. There are British consuls like Causement, Theiger, Mitchell and Armstrong all writing in fact and data with the detail of fact and data. There are Fronde like Pierre Mille and Felicien Challage, both of whom have written books upon the subject. There are missionaries of many races, Harris, Weeks and Chanard (British), Morrison Clark, Shepherd (American), Sjoblom (Swedish), or for other reasons. The evidence is the eloquent action of the Italian Government, who refused to allow Italian officers to be employed any longer in such hangman's work, and there is the report of the Belgian commission, the evidence before which was suppressed before the trial. Finally there is the uncorruptible evidence of the Kodak Any American citizen who will glance at Mark Twain's "King Leopold's Soliloquy" will see some samples of that. A perusal of all those sources of information will show that the evidence which dissuades man ingenuity could invent which has not been used against these harmless and helpless people. This would to my mind, warrant our intervention in any case. Turkey has several times been intervened with samples on the general ground of humanity. But there is in this instance a very special reason why America and England have done to death. They are in a sense their wards. America was the first to have obliged to Kung Leopold's enterprise in 1551, and so has the responsibility of having actually put him into that position, which he has since undertaken. She has been the indirect agent in cutting out the tigers. Surely some repression is due. On the other hand, England has, with the other European powers, signed the treaty of 1555 by which each and all of them makes itself responsible for the condition of the native races. The other condition of the native races desire to live up to this idele. But science of England is uneasy and she is slowly running herself to act. Will America be behind? At this moment two American citizens, Shepherd and the noble Virginian Morrison, are about to seize the second of the truth about the second of the truth deck makes a finer Statue of Liberty than Bartholomew in New York Harbor. Paid Apologists' Work. Attempts will be made in America after the Congo has its paid apologists everywhere to pretend that England wants toust Belgium from her colony and take it. Such accusations turn into a treason. The colonial colony honestly without envisaging the expanse of an expensive process. For example, Nigeria the nearest English colony has to be subsidized to the extent of $2,000,000 a year. Whatever takes over the Congo will considerating its present depreciation have a certain expense of $10,000,000 over years. Belgium has not run the colony. It has simply sacked it for forcing the inhabitants without pay to ship everything of value to Autosoir. No decent European power could do this. For many years the Congo will be a heathen tropic cell upon the next island. It trust will not fall to England. Attempts have been made, too (or there is considerable ingenuity and unlimited money on the other side) to pre-vent missions against a question of Protestant missions against the Catholic Church, thanks this should read the book "La Question Congueuse") of the elogent and look Jesuit Father Vermeersch. He lived in the country and as he says it matters, "the most assembleable murser" who drew attention to English who are caring over this matter look eagerly to the westward to see some sign of moral support or material backing. It would be a grand sight to see the banner of humanity and civilution carried forward in such a cause to the two great English speaking nations. --- Doble Words from Mr. Taft ```markdown ``` The White Man's Country If there is a white man's interest in racism, it can go far.

It was nearly 11 o'clock when the "Gay White Way" of the West Side was reached, yet it was soon learned that there was something big going on among the theatrical folk despite the lateness of the hour. On every hand could be heard the question: "Are you going to the goats?" When it was first asked the writer if he intended to be present, the reply was in an assertive, establishment where sheep, cows and pigs were the objects of prey was far more preferable than to pose as a goat dancer and thereby throw away an hour or so discussing "goatology." Friends who heard the answer heroically came to the rescue and cheerfully explained that there was not to be a goat exhibition, but that the colored performers of the "Windy" City had formed an organization known as the Goats, and every Friday evening a performance was given in some theatre in "Dahomey," commencing at midnight After being convinced that going to see the goats would not bring about a continuance of the hungry feeling, the writer listened with pleasure to the varied accounts about the Goats, and it was a few minutes past midnight when the party proceeded to the Marion Theatre, which had been selected as the scene of the evening's entertainment. About a block away/the party was informed that the Marion Theatre had the S. R. O. sign up, and that people were being turned away. Being fortunate enough to be in the company of Marion Brooks, of Green and Brooks, proprietors of the theatre, the writer was favored with a seat near the stage and was given an opportunity to witness the show which had already started. The large crowd was in good humor, and every number on the bill was accorded a warm reception. Toward the end of the program two children were introduced, who almost broke up the show. Although amateurs and under twelve years of age, they sang several songs and danced in such a pleasing manner as to "bring down the house." It was nearer 3 o'clock than 1 o'clock when the show closed, and all went home apparently pleased with the Goats' ramble. The Goats landed in Chicago last August and early one hundred performers on the membership list. The organization was formed to look after the members when they are sick and in need. No fees or dues are required, the group is quiet, the Friday at midnight at one of the theatres, and keeping the proceeds. Two weeks ago the Goats had fissure in the treasury. The officers are: Marion Brooks president; Charles Williams, vice-president; William Foster, secretary, and Just Marshall, treasurer. Rambling committee, J Ed. Green, chairman, and Arthur Woolridge. The female members are called Nancy Goats, and the organization has at the disposal seven theatres on the atrol. Better Accommodations for Colored Performers. In the Davenport (1a.) Democrat presently the following article appeared, showing the difficulty the members of the "Mr Lode of Koal" Company experienced in securing accommodations in Davenport. Sixty members of Bert A. Williams' Mr. Lode of Koal" Company, which appears at the Burts to-night, encountered serious difficulty upon their arrival in Davenport at noon today. All the members of the company are colored and on this account they were barred from registering at the local hotels. The advance agent had failed to look after this matter and to-day the members of the company applied at numerous hotels and lodging houses, only to be refused admittance. They were to be seen scurrying in all directions with their grips and suit cases, and after a fruitless chase over town, the majority of them returned to the Burtus and appealed to Roy Kindt to provide them with quarters. Mr Kindt at once got busy and communicated with a number of the leading colored families of the city with the result that all will be provided with board and lodging before night. "In the company are . . . number of strikingly handsome colored women and stylishly dressed men and they attracted much attention as they wandered over the city in their desperate effort to obtain quarters in which to remain during their stay in Davenport." Such stories as related above reach New York with considerable frequency late. Not only do the sixty cold-cold members of the "Mr Lude of coal" Company have trouble in getting accommodations from time to time but the other companies as well. One of them are averse to playing one night stands, is that they spend half of their time trying to find a place to eat and sleep. Had the "Mr. Lode of Koal" Company landed in Davenport on a cold day in January or February it would have been just the same. The members of the show, male and female alike, would have found it necessary to walk the streets in the snow and ice, suit case in one hand and a bundle in the other; and yet the same whites who refused them accommodations laughed the heartiest that evening at the theatre. It is indeed a peculiar form of race prejudice. Conditions are making actors out of our colored performers; for only actors could go through such an ordeal LESTER A. WALTON EDITED BY and then go on the stage and in an apparently light-hearted vein give a performance wreathed in smiles and in seemingly good humor. We all can look happy and feel in a mood to make others so when we have had a big meal and everything is in our favor. But try to feel and look pleasant when conditions are otherwise! Colored performers are seldom inconvenienced in the large cities. It is on one-night stands and where there are few colored residents in the town Offtimes most of the latter seem to feel as strongly opposed to accommodating members of their race as the whites. The work of the advance agent for the colored shows is different from that of white shows. Knowing the prejudice that exists relative to feeding and lodging colored performers, the advance agent should make it his business to see that the members of the company secure proper accommodations. Then, there are so many cities where even large colored shows can play that the managers can afford to taboo those towns where a colored company is forced to give a suit case parade through the streets on a winter's day looking for a place to eat and sleep. Something should be done! Etern Take In New Members Several new members have been taken into the Frogs, which is destined to be one of the most unique organizations in the country.

Following a successful week end engagement at Cleveland Cole and Johnson presented the second edition of their "Red Matter" to a record-breaking business.

Lode of Koal" opened big Sunday at Shubert's Auditorium, and the company will remain here. The company will deliver good. Show is busy rehearsing for opening in Chicago Sunday. The Kansas City Times had the following day of the new production last week. It doesn't make much difference in what piece Bert Williams appears. He's unquestionable, the most important of the stage and the first of the stage. He is not drawn by his admirers. A capacity audience greeted him at the Shubert that night of Koal. While he is a�legated by some very clever people, Williams himself bears the brunt of the burden of laugh-making and as "Wash Walking is not all the way" in his show on his other life. It literally shines alone as a dusky twinkler—one might say a midnight star. "Mr. Lode of Konl" is in many respects the highest-level mass of large airways and laughs are only crowded by the applause. The work of the chorus surpassed that of most of the "white" musical comedy choruses for the "newly" or "newly" series, a single cannot be successfully imitated. It stands in a class by itself and that which is furnished in the Williams show is the best of its class. The scenic and upland setting of the world by Ray Comstock is sumptuous in the extreme and the environment in which occur the amusing adventures of the pseudon "Big Smoke" of mythical kingdom is partially picturesque. The show is the handcraft of Nogroes throughout. The book and lyrics are by J. A. Shipp and Alex Rogers, the music by J. R. Johnson. The video is the eight and three are the most effective song numbers. Williams as the "Big Smoke" has the most laughable role he has ever enjoyed and he kept the big audience laughing every minute he was on the stage. Alex Rogers, one of the authors of the book, was especially good as Rugley and J Hill as Buttram and Tom Brown as "Gimlet" were in the same class. The stage effects are pretentious and all in all no funier offering will be presented here a long time than "Mr Lode of Koal."

N winning the fourth game of the series with the Cuban Stars last Thursday, John W Cummons' Royal Giants can rightfully claim the colored baseball championship title. The game resulted in the Royals defeating the visitors by the score of 5 to 3. Earl pitched his third successful game against the Stars and Padron was in the box for the Cubans. Despite the fact that the teams were to have played one more game, the Cuban Stars hurriedly left for Havana after Thursday's match. Quite a number of reasons have been advanced for the hasty departure of the Cubans. One rumor is that the players had trouble with their manager, another reason advanced is that players were in bad physical shape and became ill, with a third cause for complaint is that the weather was getting too cold for them. Before coming East the Cuban Stars made a great record in the West, defending all the colored teams and most of the white ones. Until they met the heavy-hitting Royal Giants for the colored championship they were enjoying a winning streak. In the series for the championship the Cubans won one game out of four. Philadelphia Giants Win Two Games.

Patrick pastor of Wayman College and many superlatives in describing the progress and enterprises of the Negroes in that State. Speaking of the town of Taft, where the colored people drove the cattle of the town, he says that the Negro people and Indians own the entire county. The unwritten law in this county is that white people are not to be permitted to live there. One sign to be frequently seen on the roadides in that county reads "white man read man run if you read man read." Of course, they are not pretending to carry out the principle of the "Golden Rule." Colored people also own a large part of the county of which Muskogee is the county seat. Rev. Patrick says that the Negro Business Idea has a strong hold on the people.
