COMMISSION MAKES REPORT Has Turned Over Recommendations to State Department LIBERIA NEEDS AID Congress Will Be Asked to Save Country From Powers That Covet Valuable Territory SHOULD BE PROTECTED Over 100 Million of its Coast Have already Been Taken—40,000 Liberals Have Greatly influenced Civilization. If the United States Government conforms with the recommendations made by the commission sent to Liberia several months ago to investigate existing conditions in that country, Uncle Sam will do everything possible to help the little republic pay off its financial obligations and assist it in becoming a factor in the commercial world. Last week the Liberian Commission completed its labors and reported its findings to the State Department. Just what specific recommendations were made has not been disludged, but it is well known that the members are of the opinion expressed by former Secretary Elihu Root, who stated while at the head of the State Department that Liberia needed help, and that the United States should come to its rescue and see that the debt held against it by foreign nations was paid In last week's issue of THE ACE was published an interview given out by Dr Ernest Lyon, United States Minister to Liberia who stated that Liberia's debt is about a million and a quarter dollars, which amount to British capitalists, and the people of that country want to see American capitalists take over the entire indebtedness and also exploit the natural wealth of the republic. Resources Commissioner George Sale, of Atlantic City, came to New York City after the Commission had made its report to the State Department and remained until Monday evening, when he left for Shaw University, Raleigh, N.C. In speaking of Liberia, which he believes has a great future, he said Liberia's Population 2,000,000. "Liberia owes its origin to the efforts of the National Colonization Society of America, organized to colonize in Africa the free negroes of the United States, which was helped along by this country later when our warships carried some captured slaves back to Liberia. In 1847 Liberia was left to the independent republic. Its government is modeled after that of the United States. Its population now numbers about 800,000. Perhaps 40,000 of these are descendants of civilized Negroes nearly all of whom went from this country. The rest of the population, about 150,000, are native Negroes. No white can be a citizen there, and only a new white people live in the republic. This class is made up almost altogether of representatives of foreign governments. There are restrictions upon a white man owning property there. To the West of Liberia is the Atlantic Ocean, to the North Great Britain, and to the East and South France. It has lost to foreign countries about 140 miles of coast territory and conspicuous land in the interior. There seems to be an agreement of the European powers that when a nation does not effectively occupy a territory it can be taken by others who propose to so occupy it. On the plea foreign countries have already taken a good deal of territory from the United Republic.

INDIANS MAKING PROGRESS Census Shows They Number More Than 300,000 in the United States—Increase in Population 40,000. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. WASHINGTON. D C., October 13—The popular idea that the American Indians are decreasing in number is dissipated by official figures showing that to-day there are more than three hundred thousand red men in the United States. The increase in population of about 40,000 during the last two decades is attributed to the Government's constant effort to uphift the Indian to the level of contemporary civilization. The Government is not only providing this race with its powerful protection, but is providing every means for the upbuilding and enlightenment of the race and is injecting into the Indians' daily life civilized customs and modern methods. Three and a third million dollars is being expended by United States annual budget for the education of more than 400,000 Indian boys and girls Looking to the broader and practical education of the Indian, the Government is extending its system of apportioning lands. The cultivating of these allotments by the Indians or the letting of them for short periods to white persons for farming or grazing is a matter toward which the Indian service is directing much attention. To encourage the industry of the Indian the Government has found feasible the plan to cut down the number of approved leases on Indian allotments and thousands of Indians have become competent to conduct their own affairs free from governmental control. During the past year the leases approved numbered about 2,000 less than during 1905. During 1909 about 1,000 Indians obtained the privilege of handling their own allotments although the legal title was retained by the Government The Government others have not been unconscious of the methods of the land speculators who would take advantage of the Indian's ignorance of business matters, and the Department regards as paramount the problem of fitting the red man for managing his own allotments and for meeting the everyday situations of life in his association with the white man. Public men whose work has brought them into close touch with the Indians are impressed with the view that the race is progressing so rapidly that eventually the Government will lift its guardianship over them. Before his retirement from office former Indian Commissioner Leupp asserted that the Indians at no far distant date would reach such a standard of civilization that it would be deemed wise to abolish the Indian office.

MASONS HONOR DR. WASHINGTON Presented With Master Mason Diploma and Gold Medal Grand Master Teamoh and Members of Grand Lodge in Regalia - Occasion an Impressive One Special to TUB New York Agr. HOSTON, MASS. October 13 — Perhaps the biggest occasion that has happened among Prince Hall Masons in Massachusetts, since the centennial celebration, was that of the official visit of the Most Worshipful Grand Master Robert T Teamoh of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge I and A M, to Castle William Lodge in its apartments at 446 Tremont street, Boston, last Wednesday and the presentation to Dr Booker I Washington of a master mason's diploma and a good centennial medal The lodge room was packed with master masons from the first and second masons districts. The grand master was accompanied by his big suite of grand lodge officers. It was the largest demonstration of the year in which the grand master has taken part. Dr Washington was present at Castle William Lodge, upon invitation of Wood, who learning that the educator was going Wednesday evening after 9 o'clock himself directed the lodge secretary, H H O Burrell, to send him an invitation to be present. The Grand Master and his suite were clothed in full evening dress and in the hand-one grand lodge regalia of gold chain collars mounted on purple velvet white lamb skin apron richly bordered with purple ribbon, gold head and deep gold fringe. The suite consisted of Right Worshipful Deputy Grand Master Benjamin C Haze, Right Worshipful Past Grand Master Nelson P Wentworth William Lloyd Marshall, Right Worshipful Distinct Deputy Grand Master Frank I Hurpm of the First Masonic District Right Worshipful Past Senior Grand Wardens James A Lew and Daniel Mulligan, Right Worshipful Past Grand Junior Warden George Warren Sharper, Right Worshipful Corresponding Grand Secretary Elemer E Casneau, Worshipful Grand Chaplain Rev Edwin Sylvester Hatton, Worshipful Grand Lecturer Hyman Nicholas of the First Masonic District, Worshipful Senior Grand Steward Walden Banks Worshipful Senior Grand Deacon Robert Gould Worshipful Grand Tiler Scott Green, Worshipful Grand Organist William O Armstrong, Worshipful Samuel W Washington as grand marshal, Worshipful Edward E Brown as junior grand deacon Worshipful Gilbert C Harris as grand sword bearer. The grand master in his suite were received in royal term by Worshipful Master Lewis Woods, and the members of Castle William Lodge. It was while the grand master was speaking that Dr. Washington accompanied by Dr. Samuel Courtney knocked for admission into the lodge apartment. The grand master pused in his address long enough to admit Dr. Washington and several other brothers into his presence. Dr. Washington was even all the courtesy of the Blue Lodge, and the grand marshal, Samuel W. Washington and grand lecturer, Hyman Nicholls were directed to escort him to a seat near the grand Fast. Grand Master Leamoh in part said "We are all aware the Brother Washington is to visit Castle William Lodge to right upon the invitation of your war bupton never be serving of the war. Edition was timely enough the time with the last last. Some would not be in the园. We do n't get off soon! We do not get off here heard the news for a long time in the room. ture of the Washim Lodge. Mr. William Lodge is the first man to the Washim Lodge and the first man to the Washim Lodge in America. It belongs to the sea of Prince William Lodge, More historic still is the fact that the diploma is designed and engrossed by the secretary of Castle William Lodge, Harry H. O. Burwell, a young man of singular ability with his pen. The wording is by our deputy grand master Benjamin Hazel, whose brother is one of the instructors in art at Tuskegee. "We are also to present to Dr. Washington to-night a gold centennial medal, This comes from the executive committee on the centennial of the first grand lodge of Negro Masons in this country. Both the diploma and the medal have been awaiting the proper opportunity to be presented to Dr. Washington, and to-night it seems to me to be a fitting READ THE NEW YORK AGE A National Weekly of Large Circulation Appears on the news stands of Greater New York every Thursday Delivered to any address upon application Is the LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM of its kind climax to the festivities of the day enjoyed at Harvard College by him." The "opoma was presented to Dr Washington by Past Grand Master William Lloyd Marshall, who was grand master at the time the former was made a Master Mason, Past Grand Master Marshall referred to the incident and said that he considered it a great honor to pass into the hands the parchment in form of a master mason's diploma. The centennial medal was pinned on the left breast of Dr Washington by Past Grand Master Nelson P. Wentworth who was happy to say that the medal came as an expression of the unanimous consent of the executive committee of the Prince Hall Centennial Committee Dr Washington in substance, said. Most worshipful grand master members of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Masons, the Worshipful master, officers and members of Castle William Lodge and the craft in general: I can hardly find words to express my feelings at being present here this evening, and at the surprises which you have given me, accepting the master invitation from the Vorbich master of Castle William Lodge. I felt it a pleasure to be able to have the opportunity to spend a while with you, for my life is a very busy one I see that you pay attention to historical objects. Our people should pay more and more attention to historical subjects that pertain to them. They should collect and keep secure in every way possible all that points for their highest and best interests in this country. They should be collected and kept so secure, that the future generations may correctly read and thus be able to prove by possession those things that are the best of our present life. Of the many things that have come to me in the course of my busy life is to try to run down a he. I have come to the conclusion that it is best never to notice a he (applause). If you notice it, it will grow. I have now come to a place where I let falsehood severely alone. I am glad that I am in an order that stands for truth, whose cornerstone is truth and where justice reigns. I notice as I go about the country that more and more of our people are becoming accustomed to self-government, to trust each other and to self-control. It is such for our people as like men, like animals and others, that we are beginning to have respect for organized authority. It is beautiful exemplified here. Those whom you place in authority you are duty bound to obey, for without some one in responsible authority, organized society could not exist. All of us cannot be rulers, but we can respect those who are our rulers. Thus as we respect our rulers in societie we should respect our real leaders of the race and country Our ancient brethren when they toiled in the quarries and in the forests for the building of the temple, sought for the best of timber and the best of stone. They did not pick up any tree that their eyes fell upon, their timber was of the best to be found. The stones we learn, were the best united that could be quarried, and so when we are prepared for the temple and prepared to be placed in their proper places, they fitted with exact moiety so we must in our eyes pick out the best material." Dr Washington also urged his brethren to stand together and urged them to remain true and polished earthly advisers in their work for the upbuilding of the race. Richt Worshipful Deputy Grand Master Benjamin C. Hazel replied for Prince Hall Grand Lodge, and explained the nature of the diploma. Charles Brown of the Grand Lodge of Alabama was present and spoke for that grand lodge, a being nearest Dr Washington's home. He was rephied to by Edward Everett Brown Worshipful Master Lewis Wood spoke for Castle William Lodge and District Deputy Grand Master Frank L. Turpin spoke for the First Mason District. After the usual ceremonies, incident to the visit of the grand master had been performed the lodge was closed and a reception given to Dr Washington. Grand Master Teamoh has had a two weeks sitting the lodges in and around London. He cleared the lodge and withdrew about well. Monday evening O ```markdown ``` VICTORY FOR CHAUFFEURS Negroes Assigned To All Divisions In St. Louis Parade CHAIRMAN R. F. BRITTON Official of Automobile Club Refused to Accede to Demand of Whites to Segregate Negroes. Special to THE NEW YORK AQU St Louis, Mo., October 12.—An attempt on the part of white chauffeurs to have the color line drawn against Negro chauffeurs during Centennial week proved a dismal failure, and the latter were seen driving cars in every section of the big automobile parade, which was one of the features of the week's celebration. The Negro chauffeurs of this city are jubilant over their victory, which they credit to Roy F Britton, chairman of the committee who had charge of the Automobile Club of St Louis division, as he publicly announced over a week prior to the parade that he was unalterably opposed to the demand made by the white chauffeurs that the cars driven by Negroes be assigned to a separate division. When Chairman Britton took such a decided stand against segregating the Negro chauffeurs other prominent officials connected with the making of arrangements for the parade gave out similar views, which resulted in Negro chauffeurs being stationed with them throughout the line of march. In giving out the statement that proved the unending of the white chauffeurs Chairman Britton said, "I understand the white chauffeurs object to Negro chauffeurs driving in the automobile parade unless the cars driven by Negroes are put in a separate section in the rear. "So far as the Automobile Club is concerned, we will not, under any circumstances, classify the cars according to the color of the owner's driver. We do not recognize the right of any persons to dictate to any of our members whom they shall employ to drive their cars. "I presume if any white chauffeur refuses to drive a car anywhere when his employer says, he will be discharged. That is a matter entirely between the employer and employee. The commission charge of the Automobile Club division will place the cars in line in the order of arrival at the starting point. If any concerted effort on the part of the white chauffeurs is made to break up the parade and that feature of the Centennial celebration is spoiled, they will have to answer for it. I am sure the Automobile Club will take some appropriate action." GERMAN EMPIRE WORRIED Maidens Become Deeply Infatuated with Natives of Africa—Government Steps In Word comes from Berlin that the German Government has become greatly aroused over the large number of German maidens who have become infatuated with Negroes, and that an attempt is being made to prevent this courtship between natives of the German African colonies and the damsels who are disposed to be infatuated with these Black swans. The official Norddeutsche Zeitung recently published in article which has been reproduced by the whole German press under the title "A Warning to German Parents and Teachers." The article with young German girls who have been writing to Negroes in German colonies. The E NEW Y Weekly of Large news stands of Greater New address upon application and black men is likely to have a bad influence on the labors of the colonial officials in their instructions to the aborigines An appeal is made to teachers and parents to use all their influence to stop the pernicious practice Held Responsible for Mob Destroying House of Respectable Negro Woman. CHICAGO, Ill., October 12—Chicago was horrified a little over a week ago by the report in the papers that the law-abiding citizens of the highly civilized town of Brookfield, a suburb of Chicago, had organized a band of rioters and destroyed the little home owned by a Negro woman. It appears that the citizens of the village made up their minds that Brookfield was too good a place to contain Negro citizens. This savage display of race hatred proved quite shocking to the better class of citizens of all nationalities. To the credit of this better element in the village, there was no time lost in bringing the guilty ones to account. On Friday, October 8, the grand jury indicted the whole party of rioters, including Judge Willis Melville, the village marshal, village treasurer, the fire chief and a half-dozen others of the so-called best citizens. It is the intention of the authorities to make an example of these rioters MORE POLITICAL RUMORS Report That a number of changes and New Appointments Are To Be Made Special to THE NEW YORK ACM WASHINGTON D C. October 13—In spite of the sarcasm of the out-of-town press and the sympathetic disregard of the people of Washington the rumor man still walks up and down the boulevard looking wise and announcing political changes which he says, are going to happen. No man months ago the actually had the people of the capital city believing that about July 1, President Taft was going to make sweeping changes among the Negro office holders here. The month was hot but the political pot refused to boil The man who sets the rumors afloat then declared that September was the month of change and that the postposition was necessitated by various other nerve wracking affairs at the capital city in the beginning of the fiscal year. Now that September has gone without even an equinoid storm, this same rumor man is trying to bake the wise people of the capital before that September postposition until November has been agreed upon. The Act ventures to predict that in November the rumorist will proclaim that he reserved the right to crawfish until April 11. Washingtonians are pleased with the present official corps and the apparent close touch between all members. They look with pleasure upon the recent apointment of Negroes to office in the North, with reference to Collector Loeb's assignments, as well as that of W H Lewis in Boston and S Laug Williams in Chicago. It is, however, a traditional idea of the capital city that Washington must be far and away in front as regards political office-holding by Negroes. The local citizens feel that a presidential appointee should reside among them with a salary larger than the $4,000 limit that such would be a recognition of the advance of the Negro in administrative capacity and would act, most probably, as a strong social tonic, that it would, in addition, balance morally in some measure the present acute state of affairs South. Not a score of years ago the salary and fees of Frederick Douglas amounted to over $10,000 a year as recorder of deeds. Chicago A. M. E. Church Assignments. CHICAGO, IL, October 12—The A. M. E churches of this city are again on solid ground. The conference has completed its work by making everybody satisfied Dr. A J Carey has been as signed to the Institutional church, Dr D P Roberts to Bethel A M F Church and Quinn Chapel is without a point at present but it is expected that one of the biggest men in the connection can be assigned to this important State Federation of rolling Negroes in of Union Labor Special to THE NEW YORK AME GUTHRIE, Okla., October 11. This is being considered a very important political move in this state in an extended effort being made by the homa State Federation of Labor to organize the Negro laboring men in the intention of the organization to roll Negroes in the ranks of laborer wherever possible. The movement means that the specialists are making a strong effort the Negro vote, and according to reports the Socialists of other states to organize the Negro laboring men similar lines. Just what success Oklahoma Socialists have just definitely known, but your corrections is in a position to state that Negro men are giving the propositionous consideration. There has been much attention in the Negro question in Oklahoma recent years, resulting in the promotion separate school, separate train and separate depot laws for members of race. Several unsuccessful efforts have made to disfranchise the Negro. It was the passage by the law of statute of a general election bill that as the Taylor election law, much to do in fact, towards efforts to do business, towards efforts to organize the Negro man who called attention to the university of organizing Negroes, was Judge P. S. Nagle, candidate two years ago for the State Senate and one of the best attorneys in old Oklahoma. Judges calls attention to the new law in order to emphasize the severity of organizing the Negroes. He "Many think that this requirement measure (the Taylor election law) born solely of race hatred and of conscious effort to disfranchise the gro. That the bill strikes at the Negro voters is true. It has, however, a more and more sinister significance than disfranchisement of the African. If the pace and will eventually disfranchise the working class of the state. Working Class Must Rescue Negro "Such laws in other states have practically eliminated the working class should remember than 95 per cent of the Negroes belong to the working class. The white workers and the black workers belong to the same economic class. "The status and standard of life of this class can only be raised by solidarity of the class. This trick is recognized by organized labor. If the white section of the working class dominates the black man, he will become strike breaker in the industrial field and in times of unrest he will serve as armed and uniformed mercenary of the ruling class. "If the working class do not deal wisely with the Negro he is the coming American Cossack." The above statement was made by Judge Nagle in appealing to union boss of the state to recognize the Negro as an important factor in the labor world and to give him the opportunity of uncontrolling whenever possible. In recent years Judge Nagle has become a politician. For many years he was present as a Democratic leader and is a lifelong of socialism coming from a man of such influence throughout the state has added the cause of that materially in the Southwest. His appeal to the union labor in respect to the Negro has done much to work the present effort to unionize the members of that race. Renters Also Being Organized. Another important factor being organized at the present time in Oklahoma, that class known as renters. For several months the Socialists have waged a desperate campaign among this class holding meetings, distributing literature and indulging them to join the Social party. States on file in the office of the State Board of Agriculture show that in Southern Oklahoma the percent of the farmers are This has led a dampened effect in this section of the state and has resulted in the present organization of these men into a union. While at the present time it is not admitted that the organization of renters is planned as a political power, nevertheless, the agitation is being made by Socialists, the resolutions and by laws have been drawn by Socialists and in the end the organization will be found an auxiliary to the Socialist party in Oklahoma. Many members of the new organization are also members of the Farmers' Co-operative Union, an organization that in many ways favors the same reforms that are advocated by Socialists.

MRS. J. MOHENBY JONES, care C. E. Mitchell, Secy. Institute, W. Va. Dear Madam As an humble member and officer of this one-houred institution, permit me to offer a slight tribute of love and sympathy to the memory of our friend and brother, J. McHenry Jones. It being the will and pleasure of the great Architect of the universe to call from labor to reward our Junior Ex Grand Master we feel that we have lost a friend. We, as Odd Fellows are bound together by such cords of love that universal sorrow fills our hearts when a link in the chain of life is broken. Brother Jones was loved and cherished by the members of our ancient and honorable society; he worked ardently to up the great fraternal structure, his life in our Order was an incentive for good. He was endowed with rare ability and intelligence, was a teacher, educator and a polished gentleman, as a ruler he was wise with an intuitive judgment, as an orator he was brilliant, as a jurist of our laws, he had no equal, was strength and courage to the great Order, which he so nobly represented as its National Grand Master. While we are permitted to enlistage his life and character, let us remember that the character of a great man remains an enduring monument of human energy, his thoughts and acts survive as an indelible stamp upon our race and memorials, and his enduring longed and perpetuated, moulding the thoughts and wills, thereby contributing to form the character of the future. It is the men that advance in the highest and best direction on who are the true beacon lights of human progress, it is natural to admire and severe really the men who belong and lift up not only all who live in their time, but those who live after them. Great men in our race should be honored for greatness itself is comparative. May we live so that when it is ours to do so, we live so that when it is ours to go we not to the deathly magnitude of forgetfulness in the bosom of the earth, as does the giant oak when felled by the woodman's axe, but beyond the stars realizing the promise of the lonely Nathaniel, we realize the promise in his footsteps. Well done, good and faithful servant, thy works of labor and love are over." Peace to his ashes rest, spirit rest. I am, fraternity yours, in great sympathy.

MASSACHUSETTS IN DANGER The Democratic machine of Maryland is moving heaven and earth to deprive the fifty thousand Negro voters of the state of the ballot. It has imported many Southern fire-eaters, including ex- emplars Vardaman, from Mississippi to harrage and arouse the poor white men on the issue of Negro domina- tion. But whether then they have obeyed in, which now seems of the financial measure trial.

Democracy that who, without participation, cause therefor legislatures in the party state local until the future never make the entire will be solidly we must the light until the current rest of light is being the whites. The of the defeat which rests. The entire N do their duty. But whether these Democrats win or lose, they have placed Negro disfranchisement in danger. Should they win, which now seems improbable, the opposeance of the bill feel assured that the disfranchisement will not stand a successor trial in the Supreme Court. When the expected adverse decision will govern the entire fabric of grandfather class disfranchisement. Should the Maryland disfranchisers lose not only will the progress of Negro political exclusion be stayed, but the Democratic party of the South will be yet further divided against itself. The future of the independent and progressive Democrate of Maryland of the type of Baltimore as splendid Mayor Mahool, is as much at issue as is the future of the Democratic party there. The machine there is severe to even equable and honest Democratic administrations, and there would be barred from future participation. The conservative Democrate therefore have lined up with the Democrats in preserving Maryland a two-party state. The Negroes of Maryland have stirred themselves to a deserved interest and enthusiasm in their cause, never before known, and practically the entire Negro vote of Maryland will be solidly arrayed against it. We assert that they will continue their birth until the ballots are counted. They must rest on their oars, now that the light is being waged bitterly between the whites. They cannot make too sure of the defeat of the vicious issue upon which rests their future political life. The entire Negro race expects them to do their duty. GEORGIA AND HIGHER EDUCATION The state of Georgia, possibly with one other exception, is the only state in the Union that absolutely makes no provision for any other education for the Negro than that of the grammar school. It gives not a dollar for normal industrial, agricultural, college, university or professional education. The school located near Savannah, of which Prof. Wright is President is supported by a pittance received from the national government, the state of Georgia giving nothing. The time is come, seems to us, when President Wright, Dr. Bois, Silas Floyd, and other prominent Georgians should get together and demand that the state of Georgia help the race in the matter of higher education. Georgia does not cut a good figure before the public, at the present time, in this respect. The empire state of the South should set an example in the matter of higher education instead of lagging behind at the tail end. LET THE NEGRO ALSO SPRAKE. The Outlook and other prominent publications state that the object of President Taft's visit through the country is to hear from the people themselves what they wish the government to do for them. We very much fear that during President Taft's trip that there will be 10,000,000 of his fellow-citizens whose wishes he will hear very little about. So far as the 10,000,000 Negroes are concerned, people will talk to the President about them, and will tell him what they, the white people wish, but we fear very little time will be given to the Negroes to express their own wishes directly in person to the President. It is very true that the person who can meet a man at the dinner table, talk with him in the smoking room, discuss questions with him in the parlor, has an advantage over the man who has no opportunity to meet the President except in some public manner for a few seconds. It is true, we presume, that the President will, perhaps, on a few occasions, talk to colored people, but this is far different from giving the Negroes the same chance that white people are given to express their own wishes to the President of the United States. It will pay President Taft to seek and make, if necessary, some opportunity through which and by which he can be told directly, not by someone else, but by the colored people themselves what their feelings and wishes are. --- NEW YORK NEGRO'S VOTE. NEW YORK NEGROS VOTE There are at least twenty five thousand Negro voters in Greater New York. The Republican party or fusion party is going to make a bid for these votes. We want to ask, however, what the Republican or fusion party, or reform party, or whatever its name may be, has ever done for Negro voters in New York City in the way of official recognition Tammany Hall keeps scores of Negroes in important positions. If the fusionsist or Republicans get any what will they do for the Negro? We stand for good clean government above all things. But even good clean government takes with it recognition in the way of offices. --- THE OTHER SIDE When discouaging reports as to Negro progress and Negro discrimination are spread abroad it is a helpful habit to look for the other side. If the Negro will do this he will find not only that the other side counterbalances the ill report but he will form a habit that will be as nourishing to his spirit as it will be confounding to his enemies. The Japanese say "No one will dare to strike the face of a smiling Buddha" No race and no individual can take long satisfaction out of slandering a race which finds apparent satisfaction in the intended torment. If the Negro race is going to pass its crucial tests, it will neither lose its nerve nor its head. it will not become sour in its attitude nor sulky in its habits. It will remain sweet and hopeful in temper with its undaunted face ever turned toward the side of progress We say this because of the widespread political and industrial dissatisfaction among Negroes. The worst is past and whatever may betide to day the Negro can absolutely rest assured that in the end all will be well An alarm may be spread as to Negro taxes for Negro schools Along comes that courageous North Carolina superintendent, Mr. Coon, and turns the tables upon the South showing that the Negro would profit thereby and then comes back with his enemies' figures to prove his own case. The Democrats of Maryland set out to eliminate the Negro It has called forth the active opposition of the federal government and conservative Maryland Democrats The Democrats of the entire South are on the verge of a split over the Negro and a ray of hope in Southern politics for the black man appears that was never seen before The firemen of the Georgia railroad tried to shut the Negro out and seven Southern railroads made a stubborn and successful fight for them to stay in For every discouragement there is encouragement. For every fear there is an assurance Better days are coming and the Negro will quicken their approach by keeping on the sunny side --- THE ACQUITTAL OF SHEPPARD. The acquittal of Rev W. H Sheppard, the American Negro missionary, on the charges of label at Leopoldville, Belgian Congo, brought an end to the most important and perhaps helpful trial ever conducted in the Congo. The Belgian government in reality admits the heinous crimes so long charged against it. Her officials tried the case. They own one half the stock of the commission company which has a monopoly of rubber gathering in the Kasai region, and a majority of the company directors are Belgian officials. The suit has been considered as one by the Belgian government. The prosecutor of the two courageous missionaries one white and the other black, has brought their charges of tyrannically impressing whole villages for rubber gathering, oppressive taxation and wholesale cruelty into the limelight. The American government through the Consul at Boma followed the case, giving him instructions to exercise appropriate good offices if the occasion required. America has thus assumed in part the responsibility which is hers for the good government of the Congoese. It has not been known until this trial that she has taken any unusual interest in the reports of horrible and wholesale torture coming from many and reliable sources. Now that these informers have been vindicated by Belgium herself, their information must be acted upon America and England, as Sir Conan Doyle recently said, are in duty bound to help the Congo. America as in the past, and elsewhere should live up to her duty. LAWYERS SHOULD ORGANIZE. The Negro lawyers of New York should follow the lead of their Kentucky brethren and organize. All the advantages which accrue from organization, the advancement of their profession and the protection of the Negro's legal and constitutional rights prompted the Negro lawyers of the Blue Grass state to form a strong and promising alliance at Louisville during the National Negro Business League Session. These same reasons hold with equal, if not greater force, in this city and state. Judge Rosalsky of the Tombs Court is reported to have recently said that it is a shame the way Negroes are being railroaded off to prison." The negligence of shyster lawyers, some white and some black, poor and ignorant Negro offenders and crowded court hooks, give undefended Negro prisoners little consideration. With little ceremony, not so much through prejudice as a want of defense, they are therefore hustled off to prison. We are told that four or five Negroes implicated in the recent fights between the Negroes and the police in Harlem were sentenced to Sing Sing. First offenders and petty offenders wrongly charged alike have met the same fate. An organization of Negro lawyers, which would look after these interests, would not only find the Negro public willing to co operate, but the judicial authorities more respectful and complacent They would at the same time gain a popularity at court which would send many of the more important cases their way By no means the least advantage to the profession coming from an organization would be its opportunity to popularize the employment of Negro lawyers. There is a general suspicion of the Negro lawyer's honesty and ability, by no means warranted. The white lawyer who approaches a Negro in trouble professing friendship and a "pull" may be counted on to have neither, not even standing. If the capable colored lawyers would make themselves popular with their people they must make themselves known to their people. If they would serve the race they must educate the race as to its rights. They must defend those rights even though it be sometimes at a sacrifice. If the Negro lawyers of New York would advance their interests and those of the race they should organize --- ALL HONOR TO HENSON On next Tuesday evening the Negroes of this country and more especially of New York will banquet Matthew Henson in the Tuxedo, one of this city's splendid banquet halls. We need say nothing in behalf of that interpid Negro companion of Commander Pearls, who has honored the race and whose fame will remain imperishable so long as men value the exploits of discovery and feats of bravery. Here is the grand opportunity of the race to take the glory which right is comes to it through its representative. Let every Negro he present who has his race and who is proud of Matt' Henson EDITORIAL AFTERTHOUGHTS. Again and now in the Congo missionary trials have two Americans, one white and the other black figured in an affair of world wide interest and never till now has the world so believed in the reports of wholesale Belgian torture of the natives. There is nothing like having it down in black and white --- Never perhaps has there been so genuine and general an effort to defeat a Southern disfranchise scheme as that to defeat the Maryland measure. That pleasant little dream has become a horrible nightmare even to conservative Democrats. Give a foul calf lots of rope and he will break his own neck. With the Negroes of Fort Worth, Texas building an automobile garage to accommodate the four autos to be purchased for their own exclusive use and the Negro chauffeurs of St Louis in the automobile parade against some protests, it is evident that the Negro aloft and astride is keeping up with the procession. One of our practical contemporaries remarks that the Negroes of St Paul won a hollow victory in preventing the separation of one of their public schools to accommodate a Negro orphan home Our contemporary is wrong, for a moral victory is substantial even though intangible President Taft has the purification problems of his life on his hands in trying to persuade the long suffering consumer to give his assent to the new tariff bill and the races in the South to live happily together on his Negro appointing policy. The President is at present conciliatory but. enp 1918 we predict he will be lined up on the side of the "long-suffering peeul." --- "Matt" Henson should either be called the "Bill" Taft or the Johnny Dumps of the Negro race. We would prefer the former but he wore the smile that cheered the frozen north and the other gentleman wears the smile that melts the solid South --- The Independence League rhymes in New York have already begun their versifying on the names of the mayoralty candidates. Hearst, Gaynor and Bannard, saying that Hearst would be the gainer if the other gentlemen wouldn't carry the banner. We wonder, even if the last named gentleman should lead the procession, will the hearse precede the other loser. 40 40.1 MPa g/cm³ The report is coiffed in Washington that Secretary of War Dickinson expects to resign following the criticisms of his Nashville speech to the effect that he is not resigned to the defeat of the Confederacy. We would be charitable to the Judge did we not know that the hero of many a Southern battlefield knows by long practice how to accept defeat gracefully. --- President Lowell of Harvard, in his inaugural address defined the educated man of the future as one knowing a little of everything and something well. This is indeed progress from the days of Socrates who confessed his superior wisdom in saving that he didn't know and knew that he didn't know. Two Solvents of Race Problem If anyone wants to make himself useful, if he wants to solve the race problem, let him do two things. First, treat the Negroes with absolute justice, see that they have all their rights without allowing them to infringe upon the rights of others. Second, make up for the injustice and brutality of the past days of slavery with kindness and opportunity NOW. Infinite justice and wisdom created the colored man as well as the white man. Colored men and white men were put on this earth together, each to do his work. The colored man has lived at a great disadvantage through the centuries. If infinite wisdom decided that white men and colored men could live on this little planet together, it is also certain that they can live here in the United States together. And they will live here together, and settle their questions here. The colored men will not send the whites out of the country, and the whites won't send the colored men out They will live and work side by side, each respecting the rights of the other. The white man who wants to keep separate from the colored man will do so, the colored man who wants to keep separate from the white man should be allowed to do so. They must respect each other, each must remember that the other is a citizen, with all the rights of citizenship, including the right of full protection in his property and in every court. New York Journal, Chicago American, and San Francisco Examiner DICKINSON IN BAD TASTE Inter-Ocean Scores Secretary of War For His Praise of Confederacy The Secretary of War for the United States government saw fit on Wednesday to boost a Southern audience that in his home he always kept consummately displayed the portraits of Jefferson Davis Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee, and with them the Confederate colors. What Jacob Dickinson does as the head of the house in his home as the president of the United States government. But when, as Secretary of War, he sets forth publicly his private conduct for general defiance he makes that conduct a proper subject of comment. Therefore we ask the President of the United States Government a member of the President's Cabinet to display as the emblem of his American faith the flag of the American citizens who sought to submit that government to the American citizens who took a most conspicuous part in the effort to subvert that government and then to proclaim that government as an bad task as we can This is said without heat. It is said in full consciousness of the private virtues of the three Southern gentlemen whom the Secretary of War has selected to be the nation's ambassadors. These are not the men and there is not the flag for a high officer of the United States Government to pay his public honour to and that is what the head of the War Department of the United States does. Some things are eternally right in the world and others are eternally wrong, as long as the North American Union is a government worthy of our love and deserves to be construed as an aphid of allegiance it is more than a scrap of paper and our love of country is more than a mere fiction it is at least unseasonably unfair for a member of the United States Government to proclaim even his personal and public name which songstress to obliterate this not on. All things are not as they seem to all. A man can think he is right and be wrong. Millions can do the same. But the everlasting virtues hide just the same. Jacob Dickinson of Chicago (a notorious Mississippi, where his home is for to accept honors by the plains). But he should be Secretary of War not he. He has no alternate. He must accept and not on it, or he condemned. The Chicago Inter-Ocean Three Bacca at the Pole Three races, Caucasian Eskimo and African, stood together at the Pole where since the world began no human foot had trod before these lions. The African could endure either extreme of cold or heat and no matter what his race. It has been said that the Negro must be confined to the hot climates, but the case of the Negro, Henson, proves what has been said of the Southern States to Canada. The Independent WHAT THE NEGRO PRESS HAS TO SAY Jacksonville is in mood of a colorful board of trade and within the next thirty or sixty days a meeting will be held for the purpose of considering the proposition. The Florida Standard. We are much amused at the complaints tied against a Negro wharfinger recently appointed at Old Point. The complaint is that he will have to come to the office in ridiculous, when it is brought to mind that the daily contact that most of us are fortunate or unfortunate to have, a wharfinger, us believe that they are models of department or intelligence. The New Century. In New York the law, or rather the courts, or others representing the law, seem to have compromised with wealth, seem to have compromised with wealth, seem to have compromised with wealth, White, a lawyer of the architect, White, a lawyer of the architect, White, in other words, a 'trusty', another advance toward freedom. From the electrocution chair to librarian even from the librarian to librarian even from the librarian to librarian. And just to think down in Mississippi they lynch a Negro for being a brother of a murderer. Has the justice of Justice lost her bandage and been lost her sword? The (Himus v. Alabama v. Journal) 7. 4. The mean is 32.99. The best thing that can be done for the youths of the race is to Christianize them. Educate and train them in ways that build faithfulness. As long as they are left without faithfulness, they are guilty and sin, and thereby undermine the peace, security and happiness of the country. If the Caucasian race will save itself, it must look conditions in the face of the problems. The opportunities are before us and they must be utilized for the salvation of the nation. Christianity is the inner core of a people, education but the shell. There is no Christianity as well very much effect what is being done by children receive the Caddis informer. The registering days closed last Tuesdays night. The good showing made by colored men who registered is very gratifying andudent and his co-workers of the Suffrage League and the colored vote. Much credit is due the pastors, who spoke of the importance of colored men registering. From the churches a sentiment spread among the men and caused them to register. The meeting held by the women of the race at Grace Presbyterian Church moved the men to consider and act more than anything devised by the Suffrage movement. The city learned of the women's meeting they moved toward the registering offices in all the wards. The Ball more Times. There is a disposition on the part of some members in authority to show to the Negro the importance of the registering office. Wherever the white man is in control he to a great extent, exercises his authority over his subordinate colored brother. The Bee is informed that the colored partymen are badly treated. On the colored roll may be seen the names of several highly educated colored men who many of these men are gifted to the colored laborer in the interior department has a hard time. The Bee is confident that Secretary Ballinger is not responsible for the condition of the colored laborer in his department. These men are being investigated. The Washington Bee Boston's business men are at their height in enthusiasm over the prospect of entertaining the National Negro Business League next summer although not much of their business will be known until January. From all indications it is apparent that if held in Boston next year the convention will be the greatest in the history of the city. The businessmen among the business men we have in two skies planned before the public about thirty enterprises in which two companies are involved at each play. It is the businessmen and professional commercial and mechanical departments where thriving enterprises are being conducted with in the limits of the metropolis of New England. It is safe that 25 percent of Boston's businessmen will self-support the industry. The entire industry. By Negro voters of the city did not have any part in selecting the candidates to the primary but the one thousand and dozen who are registered citizens can have a say in who shall be mayor. A registration certificate * not worth the paper it is printed on unless it is accompanied with a poll tax receipt. Every Negro holding a registration certificate and has not a poll tax receipt can be a mayor and get his receipt. We should prove our local citizens. We should realize that a portion of this city's burden is ours and be willing to bear our part of it. The Nashville Globe — To President Taft, in triumph to the American government, in仰祷 to the American in the Philippines, encourage and to the Filipino people, opportunity Will the Filipino people make use of their opportunity? On the answer to this question hangs the most momentous issue in what is the most significant event affecting the destiny these lands since American occupation. Will the Filipino make use of their opportunity? Will they avail themselves of a market which opens to them the gates of a treasure far surpassing that of Galoconda and the fabled wealth of Ind? It is now theirs for less than the beggarly asking.

San Antonio is getting to be resourced, city of more resources, smaller healthfulness and many more to mention. It is building more than any town of its size, in the United States, but who is doing all of this building? the white man of course? the Negroes doing in San Antonio are the Negroes doing in nothing. What are they doing so as to take our boys and girls off the streets that are going to degradation? nothing. Can the Negroes of San Antonio get together and build a drygoods store, and build a laundry room and show that they are doing something? They can if they want to Why don't they? Because they haven't a leader that will lead them on to victory, and because he will not put his money into black man's wake up, your chance is here, now make a San Antonio Inquirer It is gratifying to the millions of Negroes in the United States that Matthew Henson, a Negro, was the only civilized man that reached the North Pole with Henry not because it will in any sense be easier to reach the North Pole on the higher stages of civilization as is viewed by the Concession, but because the Campaign has always been inclined to minimize the few good deserts of the Negro and maximize the bad things that they have in a few days ago there appeared in public reports of the Negro's contact that the home of the Negro was in the South where he should remain," and before the type got cold the news fanned over the wires that a white man and a black man had captured the North Pole, and the human being could go. It would thus seem that the Negro's home is wherever he can exist and from Henson's experience he can exist any place on the face of the earth. The Negro is just as capa and the sooner both of them are on the earth the sooner both of them that theory in toto the better for all concerned. The Seattle Republic. NO NAVY DISCRIMINATION In Celebration, Saya Interesting Old Navy Officer. Many Worthy Negroes Nearby. To the Editor of THE NEW YORK AGE My attention has been arrested by the article appearing in a very recent edition of your paper condemning the naval authorities for discriminating against Negro sailors in the Hudson-Fulton parade in New York. Having served two enlistments in the navy, one of three and an anchor, I became familiar with the existing conditions of the service. I feel that I can say with truthfulness that it is principally due to the manner in which the enlisted men each places him in a position to think that he continually being discriminated against. The average Nerro who enters the navy knows little or nothing of seamanship and finds that the only possible opening is the ship's bow, as coal passer, in which he is liable to serve one or two enlistments before he receives any advancement, especially in the latter where he must first familiarize himself with marine boilers and engines. From these, he is elected as members for the ship's battalion. To my knowledge, your article is one of the very few I have noticed, calling the attention of the public to the many challenges of the service, which I must admit do exist in more ways than mentioned by you. The non appearance of Negroes, though, in public demonstrations where sailors in the parade is due to the fact that in the parade the tallest are made up of the deckhands only, consisting of apprentices, landmen, ordnary and able-bodied seamen, with petty officers of the seaman branch act as missionaries, and missioned officers of the army. The pioneers are made up of members of the artificer's branch, all petty officers such as carpenters, plumbers, blacksmiths, soldiers being required, such positions seldom being required, owing to the lack of opportunity for advancement. Consequently they are seldom seen in any of the parades, when the battalions are sent on shore. I have seen that there were any Negroes who were connected with the above-named branches being discriminated against on account of their color as they are most surely made one of the ships battalion and led to go on shore on such occasions. The majority of the Negroes I don't say all who enter the service usually serve in the capacity of wardroom boys, steward's cooks, etc. who are not considered as a part of the fighting force of these men or under fire these men are亦所侍隊 division whose duty it is to pass the ammunition from the magazines to the fighting force above. These men wear the resolution sailor uniform as do those of the fighting force consequently it may be seen that every man who wears the uniform of the service is not necessarily a sailor in the true sense of the word. The Negro (with few exceptions) who enlist in or are promoted to the previously named branches are sent to foreign stations to serve their terms of enlistment. Appointedly the 1st Assistant, Mr. B. A. Santee, among the ships of that fleet may be found many Negro petty officers such as coworkers hostesss mates carpenters painters colors water tenders quarter masters and minersists. There are are present at stationed at the navy as the best qualifier termins in the service who are colored men. But in holding these positions the Negro has to overwork and close his ears to a great many little results offered from both officers and men of the whites. Finally and perform his duty better than they for if he makes a ship it becomes just protection for his reduction in rank for incompetence. It is an unusual amount of merit and then only who obeyed by some very impartial broad under that sacrifice for him advancement and promotion. The alms is the reason there are littler, or no colored patty officers seen on the ships of the home fleets. I dare say there are no officers found that the manner of the colored men on the American warships taking part in the Hudson Fulton Celebration are members of the messman branch who were unfortunately detained ahead of their battalions, of which we are ordering to navy regulations they are not considered a part of the battalions being made up chiefly of the fighting force. When in khak are an open district, and against the Negroes of the fleet and dane say that where there were colored members of the fighting force in the battalions that participated in the naval demonstration they were no outnumbered by the whites that were there. The Fulton no sailors who turned out are accidently members of the deckhands as they usually exist in that capacity being excellent seamen, and naturally they fall in direct line for battalion work. The Negroes of New York City take this case to the Secretary of War when he has no jurisdiction over the navy department? P. C. Thomas, Six Flags Palette, U. R. C. Thomas, Brooklyn, N. Y. October 10, 1900 Little opposition has hitherto been made to the Southern movement for priving the Negro of the ballot, but the threat is being made that if Maryland adopts a disfranchising measure at its November election, as is contemplated, the friends of the Negro will carry the matter to the Supreme Court, where an adverse decision might overthrow all similar laws already adopted. Why should Maryland insist on having the dubious "grandfather clause," when it "may mean that the whole question of Southern suffrage laws may be dragged into the courts?" asks the Richmond Times-Dispatch (Dem) And the whole South Dispatch is thus objecting for fear its franchise laws are in danger, the Republicans of the North are objecting for another reason. Maryland has gone Republican several times in recent years, and the Republicans fear that if the black voters were disfranchised, the State will be put permanently into the Democratic column. The New York Tribune (Rep) comes out with a long editorial against the scheme, and the President has taken the unprecedented course of denouncing it as "vicious," and a "gross injustice and a violation of the spirit of the Fifteenth Amendment," which "ought to be voted down by every one, whether Democrat or Republican, who is in favor of a square deal." Several years ago a similar constitutional amendment was defeated in Maryland. The Maryland franchise amendment provides that a voter or his wife must have paid taxes on $500 worth of property for two years, or he must be able to write down his name, age, place of birth, residence and occupation for the preceding two years, the names of his employers, during the same period, when and where he last voted, the name of the President of the United States, a justice of the Supreme Court, of the Governor of his own State, and of a judge of its highest court, and of the mayor of the city or of one of the county commissioners. By the "grandfather clause" a man may vote without the property or educational qualifications if he swears that he was entitled to vote on or before January 1, 1869, or that he has become a naturalized citizen between that date and the adoption of the amendment, or that he is a descendant of any such native or naturalized citizen. These provisions are expected to exclude the bulk of the Negro vote without excluding any white voter. The Republican papers, such as the Baltimore American, argue that the Democratic "bosses" are pushing the amendment, not to save the State from Negro domination, but to make sure of their own domination, which is now threatened every time the independent Democrats become dissatisfied and vote with the Republicans. Maryland has less than 20 per cent. of Negro population, as compared with 45 per cent. in Alabama, 46 in Georgia, 47 in Louisiana, and 58 in Mississippi and South Carolina, so that the Negro "problem" in its politics is less pressing. Mr. Charles H. Torsch says in the course of a strong article printed in the advertising column of the Baltimore Sun (Dem) "Look at it from any standpoint we will, we are forced to the conclusion that the underlying motive of the Ring, in its appeal to race hatred and its pretended horror of ignorant black men, is simply to destroy the power of the votes of independent Democrats. They are heartily sick of catering to the better element. They never had anything but unexpressed contempt for such men as Hayes, McLane Mvahol Warfield, Numen. They simply endured them, waiting for the day to come when they could cast aside the pentential garb and boldly make their own nominations. With 90,000 colored votes destroyed, what would be the votes of 20,000 independent Democrats? "Does anyone suppose the ring would be moving heaven and earth to carry the amendment if this were not true? Would they send for Southern fire eaters to inflame our people, with race hatred without any deep-wated motive? They do not need the amendment to win the election. It is only necessary to nominate good men and they can always win, as has been the case for the past ten years. But there is just the rub, they are no longer satisfied with electing good men. They want the spoils the craft, they can not afford to remain in politics merely for glory. Let me say that I am charitable enough to conceive that in their hearts they have no feeling against the poor Negroes. It is all sham and pretense merely assumed us to as to inflame the prophecies of men against the race and secure their votes for the amendment. There can be no escape from the conclusion that if successful they would unintentionally destroy all the硅胶 adams we have made in the last fourteen years." African Also Has a God At the outset of his paper on "Borgnan and Abbrina or the Latest Fitch on the Gold Coast," the late Mr Arthur Foulkes summarizes in a nutshell the character and meaning attaching to the religion of the African. And as he seen the African does not differ in his religious ideas and conceptions from other people. He believes in the existence of God but thinks he is so great and mighty to be approached directly by man and that this can only be done through the medium of an intermediary, and as in the case with all morals, substitutes the shadow for the existence and attributes to the intermediary the power that belongs to God in power which is exercised in its relation to man, not by Duty intervention in many instances but by establishing certain fixed, eternal and immutable law (No observance of which fulfils it).

WALOOTT; sept 9-3m 109 W. 183d St., New York HONOR THE BARBER" BARBER "steel shovers," to designate in a more dignified manner, the musical artists, had better look out for their laurels. There has appeared in the scene a new member of the craft of the shaped pole who threatens to give a close shave for the high distinction of the barber." Already he has assumed himself "His Honor, the barber, and is going about the country, proclaiming that he is the best master of the razor that ever split a We are unable to sound his praises for the cutter or tell of his greatness as a shaver of celerity but after a visit to the Columbia Theatre, Monday evening, where he is exhibiting this week, we believe he will warn all others who make their crying: "Next!" that their mother gives a massage which he calls a massage "massage" that is calculated to show all frowns, wrinkles and sad facial expressions disappear in short order. The writer guarantees that when you have the place of business you will be the best of humor, which is not always the case when you depart from a museum. No, we do not know whether he belongs to the union. In his new piece—"His Honor, the Harbor," S-H Dudley, who within the weeks has gained the reputation of "traveling barber," is proving quite a mith-maker, and if you have the blues we believe a performance of His Honor, the Barber, will get you to a more cheerful and genial disposition. If laughter and applause is to be as an evidence of approval, the methods of theatre-goers who were in attendance on the opening night in New York will doubtless agree with the above recommendation. "His Honor, the Barber," is styled a musical comedy in three acts and seven scenes. Book by Edwin Hanford, music and lyrics by James Brynn, James Burke and Chris Smith. The story deals with our "Raspberry Snow" whose chief emotion in life is to shave the Presidency of the United States. The nearest effort to realizing this desire is in a scene in the second act. It was pleasing to note that instead of using many musical numbers heard on the streets and town by other performers as has been the case with the Smart Set Company for several seasons, Musical Director Brynn and his associates have this year performed theatre games with several good songs that you do not hear until you watch on performance of "His Honor, WHAT BETTER MEMORISE HARD PLACE YOUR LOVE BUT BE YOU! LEAVE YOUR SUPPORTING the Barber." The book of the produc- tors could be much better, but the per- formers make the best out of the situ- ations many of which are funny. S. H. Dudley is rapidly coming to the front as a comedian. True he resorts with amazing frequency to the use of the razor and gun to help make laughs which is not necessary nowadays. For colored comedians; author of the book evidently thought that such image "behind" a razors, guns and dice necessary adjuncts as laugh-produ- ced in a colored show. However, that truth has past. In "His Honor, the Barber," the comedian is responsible for laughter the greater part of the time he is on the stage. His pantomime work is good and the only trouble with his singing is that he should sing at least one more song. His singing of "Leave Tore Supper Time" was easily the song hit of the evening's performance. His pugging of the song "a la Hammerstein's Victoria," however, could be discreetly omitted. The audience has all the opportunity to join in the chorus at the vaudeville theatres nowadays. Andrew Trible as "Babe Johnson" "Raspberry's" affinity, comes second as the laugh-maker of the aggriegation in He and Dudley have some ludicrous situations together. This young man is being a close student on female wearing apparel, and in the third act appaired in a Brinkley creation looking like any other shapely and well dressed female in show. James Burris as "Mose Lewis," a sport is once more doing the straight to Dudley and they also create much merriment throughout their dialogue This season "Jim" appears almost every minute in a new Feldman design to the delight of those who enjoy gazing at arterial displays. Another member of the Smart Set Company who is showing improvement with year is Irving Allen, who plays the part of "Wallington White," owner of a bartender. He starts the fun in the MUSIC AND THE STAGE Sissercott Jones, the Black Pattil, made her appearance again at the Byron Bay company of Negro entertainers. Black Pattil still possesses the voice of power and sweetness which has made her a home entertainer throughout stagland. The vehicle offered this season is "A Tale of the City," a clean, refined show, surprisingly devoid of horse play and coarseness. A number of excellent vocal offerings are included, greatly added to the general strength of the program. Jolly John Larkins, the nutty singer of the appalled loading of comedy role and proved a wholesome entertainer. The costuming music, songs and set-up are all first class. FT A WB Record. S. H. DURLEY ENTERTAINED NEWARK, N. J.

Oct. 12—After being under the care of a throat specialist for several days in Chicago, J. Hosmond Johnson is much improved, and has resumed work. According to the good old adage, As a man is known by the company he keeps the men to the merit of a show shown by the constantly increasing audience, attesting their approval code and Johnson in The Houd Moon, a play with a reasonable and coherent plot and surrounded as they are by some of the best of musical comedy of the time. He is with numerous and pretentious cast at numbers the result is all that he looked for at this only and than fully. Every hand the question is asked. We will be the name and nature of the job. We written by a and John with in with Aila Overt on Walker's post next week. The dominant male choir met Sept. 20 in Lafayette Ohio, and elected Frank Lower Brown, president of Ch. A. Hunter, vice president and manager of Wm. E. Phillips secretary, for the concert. (Comms (Sumbu), Illinati, James R. Europe director. Meetings will be held biweekly.) Miss Sima was called to Washington on C. J. last week to attend the funeral of her father Henchin Jones, in the song "Keep On Rising." Don't act like a crank, 'cause if you do. The world will certify on you "Majorle Sipp comes up with a good idea." Other sweet nothings make funerals and other sweet nothings make pourrit of the average show girl's life." Goo. A. Smith the trap drummer, mightily mimic images to Chicago while the Ted Mulligan makes Milwaukee, but then Mrs. George is in Chicago. C. A. H EDITED BY first act with his song, "Corn Shucking Time" Lawrence Chenault has always been successful in playing soldier parts and this season he is none the less at home in his role of "Capt Perival Dandelion" of the Navy. His work compares favorably with that of former years as solost of the Smart Set Company Aline Cassals is prima donna, and as Caroline Brown, a gay young widow, is good to look at. She has a number of songs in the show but the large audience was partial to "Merry Widow Brown" in which she was ably assisted by octet Jennie Pearl, who this season appears on the program as Jolly Larkins, in the part of "Lady White," songs and dances in her same winning style. This season she has a better part than ever before. Mrs. S H Dudly as "Ella Wheeler Wilson," a sporting editor, appears to much better advantage than she did last season as an old woman The support given Mr. Dudley is also stronger in every department than of previous seasons and-the members of the chorus sing well and work overtime. If the writer recalls correctly only once did the chorus remain off the stage when the orchestra began to play, and that was in the third act during the comedian's singing of "Leave Fore Supper Time." A few more smiles for the members of the fair sex would be appreciated by all. On the program appears, "Patrick." On the program appears, "Patrick."

We had the fun of meeting the Queen Bora while BLACK PATEL (COMPANY) I have been going along since they their the press of the impress- ing work imposed upon them before the new show opened. Press reports are good. I have also taken important spoke the show as follows. Like all white, black Patti and her troupe of troubadours get better with age and the audience that witnessed her performance. Like martins, the pieces comedians, was well pleased. A Trip to Africa is a sparkling musical comedy full of acting and singing, with not only the usual comedy parts, but were all new and well rendered, and the comedy parts were in ample hands and given full justice. The comedy comedies, the bill had a plot to it, and the awakening scene in the jungles of Africa with the large chorus was well worth the price of admission. Patti has many friends and the season is the new members made good from the start. Chicago, IL, October 12—This is the second week of "M. Lord of Koal" at the Great Northern Theatre and Bert Bert playing to large houses at each performance. Alex Rogers has been unable to appear in the cast for several days owing to a broken leg. The 3300 State street, calls "occupational hoonession," due to a cold on the vocal chords which have become strained by overuse. Josio DeVance was unable to appear when the show opened in her solo due to a broken leg. Sterling Rie has been款益ly filling the role of "Huggy" during Alex Rogers' absence from the cast. In the city where the career was in the city under the care of Threat Specialist Smith, and for the first time in the music sung in the "M. Lord of Koal" please with the rendition of the musical numbers. The Evening News commented on the news: "It was follows." Bert Williams came alone, bereft of the smiling Walker, but the show was full of Williams and Walker exclamation reigns notwithstanding the continued indulgence Walker to act. He is confined to saintly outbursts but diate hope is being distributed in favor of his recovery. Mr. Williams, however, the combination and he is immense lil' the combination and he is immense lil' the broadcast of Mr. Lode of the band with musical attachments and lots of gav little colored girls ready to sing and dance and first around in dazzling costumes. He has been enough to pick up the wretched taste and morals of the white man might be hushed up a little without menacing the entertainment. The songs the dances and one or two scenes, most pantomimic, and not particularly clean singing, tacked mouses have taken the honors all upon himself.

Although the weather argued more in favor of outside attractions the second show at the theatre, Fifty-first street and Seventh avenue, was witnessed last Sunday evening by an audience that caused Messrs Archer and Carl to smile, and reach the conclusion that Sunday concerts under their guidance had been evenly balanced, the bill furnished was evenly balanced, and all the acts were well received. On the program were Bradley and Miller, Chauney Ver Valan, Tom Bethel, Brown and Sheftal, Mable Brown, Black Carl, the Majestic Trio and the quartet Nettie Glenn a Five 'Five Licorice Sticks'. It would be a wise move on the part of the management to use a piano of the same size and quality, singing find themselves at a disadvantage the r music being pitched too low The Negro on the Stage. One of the places in which the improvement of the Negro race is most evident is in the theatrical and amusement holds. Naturally gritted as entertainers, the men and women of this race have of late years been so improving and refining their talents that to day many of them are taking high ranks among the people of the professional stage. A great many Negroes are to be found in yankville, and they constitute some of the best and most popular entertainers of that class. No sweeter or better trained singer has been heard here for several months than Miss Abby a colored woman who recently Mahlah a local woman in yankville. The colored "team" both seen in yankville are nearly always sure of a hearty welcome, for their dancing is usually skillful and accurate, their singing tuneful, and their comedy plentiful. But it is not only in vaudeville that we see them. Companies made up entirely of colored people are more numerous than they were a few years ago, and, what is more to the point, they are far better. Last season we were visited by two such companies, who gave us musical comedies of merit, clean, and containing both real music and real comedy. Here in Columbus we have a theatre entirely devoted to the interests of the colored people. "The Dunbar" in Mt. Vernon avenue is an orderly, well-kew little playhouse, in which a few traveling companies are seen, and much local talent is exploited and developed. At a musical given there this week the little auditorium, spotlessly clean, by the way, was filled with an audience of well-dressed, well-behaved, quiet men and women, who listened eagerly to a program of exceptionally good music. It is worthy of note that there was norag-time offered, no popular songs, but standard selections by good composers, executed sometimes a little crudely, but with great earnest endeavor. It was an inspiration to listen to the performers and to turn from them to the audience—rows of patient brown faces, some of them a little weary from a long day's work, but all of them eager, wistful, ambitious to follow the gleam which leads to the best things—Columbus (O) Daily State Journal IN THE SPORTING WORLD (BY LESTER A WALTON) Last Friday evening, even before the bells were about to toll the hour of six o'clock, and the good folks of South Norwalk Conn. were preparing to sit down to their evening meal, ten ball players, with bats in hand, ambled slowly through the streets of the village in the town of Norwalk, and for the ford Railroad Station, bearing the appearance of being a very much surprised and disgusted lot. And they were, for the players in question were the members of the New York Americans who had batted in the game, and lost the game by the score of 9 to 10. The contest was played before a large crowd composed of the fans of South Norwalk and followers of the Yankees and the New Giants, many of whom had the way from Manhattan witness the match of double-plains lived up to their reputation as surglers and won the game by knocking Duel out of the box in the seventh minute. Munning, who finished the game was hit for a bat, but managed to keep the ball out, but one run was made off his delivery. Rokner patched seven innings and during that period the professional made four runs. He was replaced by Lydon who was batted for two innings. Lydon took two more which end the season. The Gavin's played an erratic game while the Yankees took four. Lydon bounced off Rokner and Mourne with the features of the team. Duncan took a few innings and made four. N York A. Porter H. Hunt A.

Moore to Governor John M. C. A. will be established here. The establishment of the school will another step in establishment of "Jim Crow" laws in this com- munity. This movement was started here by members of young men mostly from North Carolina which met every Sunday at the name of the Pilgrim Bible School. A. M. Colston, their former pres- sident, the president of the white Y. M. A., and his Negroes were present, and the white Negroes but the Negroes to establish a white association. Prompted by a de- sire always be given something for every M. is generally thought that these men are arranging to accept their need in a few months the city may be acquired by a building on the C. A. M. E. Church, devoted 1. M. E. Church, thought people in Pittsburg to be done by young women and men; but by intelligent Pittsburgers. "Colored Christians' Associations and the Women's Christian Association are just as much "Jim Crow" laws that disagree with liberalism, including the country, and more, too, for instance that these Christian (?) assemblies are supposed to be teaching men of Christ. Negroes here who are those "Jim Crow" branches of associations should not be accused of promoting social equality with white people, nothing with social equality, but since they are telling us they do not want to teach us to learn of the ways of the African, thinking people in Pittsburg, well as in other cities, are suspect. Negroes do not follow more than the noble precedent that are concerned in the November, 1787, to take into account the evils under which they are growing out of the unkind treaties their white brethren, who pulled their knees while in he act in the house of worship and told them to be with the origin of the A. M. E. which is the oldest Negro Church mission, and Richard Allen. This mission has home and built at his exile at A. M. E. Church in this town.

One hour will be consumed in the first part of the service, which will consist of the opening of the church from our beginning. repair shops, one furnishing store for grease, one millinery store, about six little groceries, four undertakers, several restrooms, two bathrooms, two store rooms and two news stands represent the commercial activity of the Negroes in this city. Should all the Negroes in this city be furnishing stores would not fill one floor of the tenth largest department store in Pittsburgh. So much has been said about the race refusing to trade with each other as a reason for this poor showing in this great commercial and industrial center, your cor respondent has made a careful and impractical effort to find facts are ignored: The Negroes who have started business and failed owe it to their mismanagement more than to non-support from the masses; ninety-seven per cent of the people now in business increase their business 75 per cent. If they do not treat the average Negro in business seemingly thinks that every Negro should trade with him because he is a Negro, regardless to treatment or value for their money. As strange as many say that average Negroes are business men here who not only refuse to advertise in a Negro paper, but refuse to read them, and stranger still, some are members of the local branch of the "National Business League." Some of them are so Anglo-Saxonized that they refuse to trade with money with whom they choose, and when others spend theirs where they get the greatest value and most courteous treatment, they cry aloud.

Haynes, a popular Negro citizen of Chesterfield County, Va., had the good foretight to purchase forty acres of well-night worn-out land. And he bought it for $10,000 burge.

He owns a farm with two acres he accumulated an enviable chance of high-bred stock, including a number of horses, large droves of fowl and five fine dairy cows. He has built a dwelling, tenant's house, barns and outhouses. He paid only a nominal sum for this property. He has a estate for which he has a standing offer of many thousands of dollars.
