COLOR LINE IN OKLAHOMA Agitation in Education Circles Over Race Question Educator Invited to Speak at Convention of State Teachers' Association and Trouble Follows Principal Objector 'Denounced and Prof. Page Asked to Allow His Name to Remain on Program. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Oklahoma City, Okla., Jan. 19 — "Shall the color line be closely drawn in educational circles of Oklahoma" is causing considerable agitation in this state, and threatens to disrupt the State Teachers' Association The teachers are wrought up over the race question, owing to the action of some of the pedagogues in protesting against the invitation extended to Prof. human E. Page, president of the Langston Agricultural and Mechanical College, to address the convention of the State Teachers' Association. The Langston institution is devoted to the education of the Negro youths of the state and has won a national reputation, while its head, Professor Page, is known as "the Booker Washington of Oklahoma" George Wilson, of the Alva Normal, started the agitation against permitting Professor Page to address the teachers, but the end is not yet in sight, and it is possible that before the matter is ended, the teachers' association may be split into warring factions Professor Page attempted to pour oil on the troubled waters by voluntarily withdrawing his name from the programme, but this only served to intensify the feeling against Wilson and others who take the antinegro side of the question White Teacher Shows Pernictous Activity. Wilson wrote letters to the state superintendents of twenty-one states, asking them if it is customary to place Negroes of the programme of the state teachers' associations in their state, and if it is not customary has it ever been done. In an interview given out at Alva Wilson declared that some of the replies to these letters will make interesting reading matter. It is known that replies received by Wilson to at least two of his letters are not favorable to his contentions that the color line should be closely drawn in state educational circles. E T Fairchild, superintendent of schools in Kansas, has replied that it is not considered improper in Kansas for a prominent Negro to be placed on the programme of a state teachers' meeting, especially to discuss Negro education. He cites a fact that Booker T Washington was once placed on the programme of the National Teachers' Association and that he has addressed the state association of at least one Southern state. Howard A Gass, state superintendent of Missouri, has written that while it is not customary in Missouri to place Negroes on the programme, Booker T Washington was once asked to address the teachers' association of that state, and did so to the entire satisfaction of all. Professor Wilson received something of a setback from the Northern Teachers Association, comprising the teachers of his own county as well as other Southern counties, who recently adopted a strong set of resolutions concluding the course being pursued by Wash. In lieu of the first that Prep- chool Life of our colored A M University has been forced by the irresponsable and dis- tractive actions of some par- ticipants in the program, to widen from the program of our college to the program has given him Negro Education in 1. That we consider this leadership of Mr. Page beneath the discipline of the teaching profession. We must recognize that he has been able to withdraw from the practice and asked that he be rewarded to allow it to remain in the State association program. HENRY GRAHAM GILBERT DEAD Bodyguard of Samuel J. Tilden and Known to Prominent Politicians Died Last Week of Lincoln Hospital Henry Graham Gilbert who was bodyguard of Sam- J. Tilden there passed away a matter known to scores of prominent tans of Tilden's time. Gilbert last week of the Lincoln Hospital higher illness. Graham Gilbert tailed an un- position with Governor Tilden and with other employers, most of them persons well known in New York. While nominally he was a butler every family with which he was treated he succeeded in making him available in a dozen different cap- abilities. Unable to read and write, ex- cept for scrawling his name, he knew nearly every one of political or social prominence in the city and State and never made a mistake in naming each one at sight. He was always put at the door at important functions held in houses in which he was employed. He was a mulatto, and was born in Hampton, Va., about 1842. His mother died in 1894 at an advanced age. His father brought him north when he was a boy, and he began serving well known families in New York At the opening of the Civil War he went to the front as personal servant of Colonel William Jay. With him in Colonel Jay's employ was a young Irishman whose name has been lost. The two servants, according to stories later told by Gilbert, began their military experiences with the first battle of Bull Run. Gilbert used to say that he and his Irish friend were among the first to get off that field and that stopped running only when safe in Washington. When their fears subsided they rejoined their employer and according to Gilbert's reminiscences had no more trouble of that sort. Among other families with which Gilbert was connected in his earlier days were the Havemeyers, Mollers and Bigelows. Governor Tilden took up Gilbert about 1872. The latter remained with the Democratic leader during the fourteen years that remained before Mr Tilden's death in 1886. Gilbert used to tell tales of his care of the Governor, always insisting that it was only by his own judgment in selecting food and in a thousand and one other intimate matters of daily life Mr. Tilden ever got on at all. One of his anecdotes was about the way he used to get rid of unwelcome callers at Mr Tilden's city home. Gilbert always knew them by intuition "They'd come up and say, 'Is Gov. Tilden in?'" he used to say, "and I'd go into the house and come back and say 'No,' but I was always mighty careful to shove Mr Tilden out into the garden before I said it—I wouldn't tell a lie, no, sur." Gilbert was in a prominent place at the funeral. The Governor left him $1,000. GETS $30,000 ESTATE Court Decides That James Edward Johnson is Entitled to Property Left by the Late Bridget Torpey. James Edward Johnson, a Negro, has been declared the legal heir of Bridget Torpey, a cook who died several months ago over 70 years old, leaving an estate valued at $30,000. In handing down a decision in favor of Johnson Surrogate Thomas mild. There was unquestionably an understanding between her and Johnson that if he would care for her lifelong health he should inherit the estate, says the Surrogate. I do not think it surprising that the decedent chose to reside with Johnson. She had worked with Johnson and other Negroes for a quarter of a century, and was accustomed to them. She only went to live with Johnson after she had diligently sought a place elsewhere. The decision in the Torpey will contest was of general interest, in which two brothers and a sister sought to have the Torpey will annulled, and Margaret M Bennett, a trained nurse introduced a will purporting to have been drawn up after the document which named Johnson as her and best friend of the testatrix. Surrogate Thomas threw out the will presented by Miss Bennett, and further decided that Johnson was the proper person to receive the estate Bridget Torppe came to this country when she was 11 years old and for over twenty five years she worked in the kitchen of Mrs N B Laft's boarding house, at 46 West Twenty fifth street. During this time she accumulated $30,000, of which amount $16,500 was in cash in banks. PAYS TRIBUTE TO AGED WOMAN. Lending White Citizens of Milledgeville, Ga., Act as Pallibearners at Funeral of Aunt Amy Latimer. Milledgeville, Ga., Jan 18—For the second time in the recent history of Milledgeville has a Negro been buried with some of our most prominent white citizens acting as pallibearers. In both instances it was the funeral of an old colored mammy, this time it was Aunt Amy Latimer. The pallibearers were Judge G. J Whiden, recorder. Dr J K H W Stembridge, George H Jr Grant, J H Andress C L Morris. Recently Dr B J Simmons, one of the most successful Negroes of this State, was hired in this city. He had accumulated some $2000 in the last ten years for the practice of medicine. He represented all the most that a progress we men of his race had accomplished in this community. The white people did not ignore his success. He received considerable consideration in many ways, is a lover that his disability was regarded. Quite a number of our officers attended his funeral, but it is safe to tell that there is no comparison to be made of the feelings of the white people over the passing away of these two members of another race. Aunt Amy has accumulated little or nothing. It was not what she had, but what she was and what she had been that opened the hearts of her white friends and made them mindful of her even after death. Aunt Amy had been in the valley and the shadow with many good mothers in this community. Her tender, humble sympathy and gentle services were not to be forgotten. Her voice had first announced the arrival of many a bouncing boy or girl. The white women sent wreathes and roses. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 1910. Negro Pupils to Get Better Accommodations in the Future JOHN L. PARKER TALKS President of School Board Favors More Buildings—Age-Herald Takes Up Fight. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Birmingham, Ala., Jan 12 — The fight made by the Negroes of this city for better public school accommodations is bearing fruit. Both the school officials and the press have been won over, and at the beginning of the next scholastic year it is highly probable that Birmingham will boast of more Negro schools. Furthermore, there will be a noticeable improvement in the sanitary condition of the old school buildings. Relative to the charge that the Board of Education is not exerting itself in the interest of the Negro school children, John L. Parker, president of the Board of Education, has given out the following statement The Board of Education is preparing to do all that it can, not only for the Negro children of the city, but for all of them. We are handsome and well given in the matter of a lack of funds. At the present time, however, we have plans for the erection of a new school house for the Negroes. We have various sites under consideration. As a nucleus school we gave all the money which came as a result of the sale of property on Third avenue and Twenty-fifth street. Quite recently we went to a $1,000 expense in bettering sanitary conditions in the Negro school, giving all the Negroes all we can, but the board is not to be driven. All interested in the work should become aware of that fact. Newspaper Says Give Negro Children Better Facilities. The Birmingham Age-Herald recently made the following plea for schools for Negro children. It is the plain duty as well as the plain duty of this city to treat Negro children fairly. At the present time there is not decent accommodation to the public schools for the children of this city. There are not seats enough to accommodate one-half of the number. Only the oldest inhabitants can remember when a schoolhouse for Negroes was built in this city. All can remember when one was born and grown under suspicious circumstances. The city authorities should have the courage of their convictions. The blatant demagogues should be pushed back while justice is served. The Negro labor is not Negro labor is as essential here as it is in any other Southern city, and the best of Negro labor cannot be retained here unless we build schoolhouses to accommodate the children of these laborers in their respect to build such schoolhouses. The condition of the Negro schools in this city is disgraceful. They are over crowded, shabby and un sanitary. They are just what a school should be and the situation calls for something better, and that, too, speedily. TO HAVE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL. Industrial School Will be Established in Liberia Along Lines of Tuskegee. Baltimore Md, Jan 19 - Dr Frnest Lyon, American Minister to Liberia, who returned a few days ago from Tuskegee Institute, where he, Dr Booker T, Washington and Bishop I. B. Scott had a conference regarding Liberia educational conditions, states that an industrial school modeled on Tuskegee lines will be established in Liberia. "The establishment of such a school," said Dr Lyon, "under the guidance of Tuskegee Institute, will be of interest. He benefited to the Liberians, and I am sure they will be extremely well pleased with the prospect of such an institution." "While at Tuskegee I had a better opportunity than ever before to see the greatness of the work being done by Dr Washington." While at Tuskegee Dr Lyon and Bishop Scott attended the annual reception of the County to Dr Washington. Recommends Appropriations for Institutions Baltimore, Md., Jan 19—The Board of State and Citizens has recommended to the Legislature that $4,000 be appropriated to various Negro elec- monary institutions during the next two years. This includes $3,000 to Provident Hospital and $20,000 to the Colored House of Reformation Thirty-two Negro Letter Carriers in Mobile. Mobile, Ala., Jan 18—According to statutes recently given out, Mobile boasts of thirty-two Negro letter carriers and a superintendent of carriers—James T. Peterson 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 OVER TWO THOMAS AND HEAR EDUCATOR Booker T. Washington Addresses Large Audience at Albany Special to The New York Age Atlanta, Ga., June 18—Dr. Booker T. Washington addressed an audience of over 2,000 persons at the Auditorium-Armory last Wednesday week. Many white people were present. After the exercises at the Auditorium a banquet was handed the educator at the Central Congregational Church, at which Dr. John E. White spoke on behalf of the whites and Rev. J. W. Bowen for the Negro citizens. In his address, Dr. Washington said in part "I am here because I believe in the work of Rev. J. H. Proctor. I have faith in his plan and faith in the man. It is a matter of the greatest encouragement that leaders like Rev. Proctor, President Hope and others in Atlanta are not only giving attention to the professional training of the Negro, but are helping the Negro to use in the common, ordinary occupations of life his education and his religion. "I have said before that the average white lady in the South who is a housekeeper will never believe thoroughly in the education of the Negro until she can see some of the results of education in her own kitchen, and in her own dining room. The average white man in the South who owns a farm will never believe thoroughly in the education of the Negro until she can see some good results of education on his own farm. Our white friend must be patient, however, with us while we are reaching this point. The kind of encouragement that manifests itself in the kitchen and on the farm is something in this country that is new for the white man, but gradually year by year we are making progress in the objective influence of Church and School. "We must be at all times, however, that no matter what we do in the schoolroom, in the church or elsewhere, that our efforts will prove of little value unless the influence of the church an dof the school reaches the most ordinary man and woman of our race. Education and religion must reach and help the man who uses the pick and shovel, must reach and help the woman who washes, who irons, who cooks. "From the very beginning every Negro child should be taught the dignity of labor, should be taught to get rid once and for all of the old idea that the educated man and the educated woman should not work with their hands. "We are mainly depended upon in a large part of the South for common and skilled labor. We must see to it that if we would hold the place which we now occupy in the world of labor that we are reliable as a class of laborers. People who burn up against large numbers often save to me that the Negro can be depended upon for a certain class of labor for a little while, but he cannot and of the school reaches the most or especially are they likely to add that if the Negro receives his cash on Saturday night, one is never sure whether he will return to his place of labor on Monday morning. If that weakness prevails among the common laborers in the city of Atlanta, we must never cease our efforts until the Negro laborer is made reliable. "The Negro must improve year by year as a laborer. The kind of labor which would satisfy on the farm and in the kitchen twenty years ago will not satisfy to-day Improvements can only he brought about by putting brains and skill into the most ordinary occupation. The Negro must have his mind awakened, his ambitions aroused. No man works unless he has an incentive, unless his wants are increased. In proportion as the Negro has his wants increased, he becomes more reliable as a laborer. I need not refer to the fact that in a city like Atlanta the Negro man or woman who is most reliable as a laborer is the one who owns one house and wants another house or perhaps add another room to the house now owned; it is the Negro man or woman who has $100 in the bank and wants to put another $100 in the bank "The State of Georgia spends thousands of dollars in educating white farmers at the State University, and asks at the eleven agricultural colleges located in the congressional districts, but so far as I can discover the State of Georgia spends practically nothing in educating Negro farmers. The man who thinks it is necessary to spend thousands of dollars in educating the white boy as a farmer and nothing to educate the Negro boy pays too high a compliment to the Negro boy in that he means to argue that the white boy in order to sustain himself as a farmer needs education which will make him intelligent as to the best tools with which to cultivate but the Negro boy is naturally so intelligent and skilful that he can become a good farmer without education. I say such reasoning implies too high a compliment to the natural intelligence of my race." THE LORD'S PRAYER FOR THE WORLD J. FRANK WHEATON who has been appointed one of the members of Conference Committee to be held by Elks next week at Wilmington, Del. Safety Banking and Realty Company Opens Its Doors Albert Boyd, Largest Depositor on First Day Building $600, Bright Outlook for Institution. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Mobile, Ala., Jan. 19.—This city has a Negro bank, the first to be established in the history of Mobile. It is known as the Safety Banking and Realty Company, and was opened last week. This new financial institution is located at 256 St Michael street President Newsome, Vice-President Evans, Secretary Boyd, Cashier Knox, W. J. Robinson, manager of the real estate department, and Mrs Duncan, stenographer, took an active part in the opening. Among the invited guests were Rev W R. Pettiford, founder and president Penny Savings Bank, Birmingham, and Rev A F Owens, Tuskegee Institute The opening ceremony was simple. President Newsome turned over to the cashier the necessary books, congratulations extended the officers by President Pettiford, and letters of congratulation from officers of three of the most prominent white banks of Mobile. These letters not only expressed congratulations, but offers of assistance. The next step, the most essential to banking business, was receiving deposits. W J Robinson handed over the counter the first deposit—$9,75, which amount was afterwards imputed by him to $14. The next depositor was Albert Bond, who startled by the standers by planking down $000. A white hitor, to express his confluence in the enterprise, deposited $25. Following were deposits ranging from one dollar to one hundred and fifty dollars. At the close of business at 9 o'clock, according to report of Rev A P Owens, eighty-one depositors, all Negroes, except two, had committed to the safe-keeping of the Negro bank the sum of $1,890.91. White Citizens Evinice Interest. More than a score of leading white citizens called during the day and expressed delight at seeing a Negro bank open in Mobile. Several hundred colored citizens called and promised their moral support and co-operation. Rev. A. F. Owens stated to a representative of THE Age that the bank opened under the most auspicious circumstances; that the universal sentiment of the leading white citizens was favorable to the enterprise, and that the department on the first day showed that the best colored citizens will do business with the bank. The safeguards thrown around depositors are the heavy bonds of those who will have the handling of the money and the watchful care of the state examiner, whose business is to see that depositors and public are protected. The money safe used by the bank is acknowledged by experts to be the strongest safe in the world. It is said to be absolutely burglar proof. Within six weeks three banks have been organized by Negroes in Alabama, including one in Selma, receiving $2,145 on deposit the first day, and one in Aniston, with $1,700 deposited the first day. Movements are on foot, according to Rev. Owens, to organize a Negro bank in Montgomerie and also in Pensacola, Fla. With the start that this bank had the first day, the moral support of the business standing of some of the trustees, Red Qwens thinks the bank will succeed Bill to Prevent Establishment of School. Lexington, Ky., Jan. 18.—Representative Holland has introduced in the Legislature a bill to prevent the establishment of the Negro school, known as "Lincoln Institute," near She'bysville, Ky., for which an endowment of a half million dollars was raised. Andrew Carnegie and Mrs Russell Sage were among the largest contributors. The college is an offshoot of Berea. Holland says the people in his district do not want a Negro school in their section. Montgomery, Ala., Jan 18—Seven men have been indicted by the Federal Grand Jury as a result of the charges that Wash ardener, a Negro of Butler County, was held in pennage. All of the indicted men have been held on a bond of $2,000 each and will be called for trial January 24. --- PRICE, 5 CENT Both Factions Unite After Many Months of Dickering ATKINS AND MILLS Two Grand Exalted Rulers Meet at Hampton, Va., and Bring About Unification CONFERENCE COMMITTEE Meeting to be Held in Wilmington Next Week—J. Frusk Wheaton Named to Represent Atkins Faction. After many months of conference and deliberating with a view to getting together, but never to any good results, the two factions of the Improved Benevolent Order of Elks of the World have at last reached an amicable working basis on which a consolidation is to be effected at a near date THE AGE is in position to announce that the unification of the two warring elements has been agreed upon already, and that all preliminary work towards bringing about harmony has been concluded. An agreement to cast aside all differences and unite both factions of Elks was reached several days ago at a peace conference held at Hampton, Va, which was participated in by Dr W. E. Atkins, grand exalted ruler of what is known as the Atkins faction, and Dr. James E. Mills, grand exalted ruler of what is known as the Howard faction. Of late a number of conferences have been held by the two exalted rulers, but it was only a few days ago that they came to a definite understanding relative to unification. Conference Committee to Meet January 25. On January 2, a meeting will be held in the lodge rooms of the Paul Laurence Dunhair Lodge, 811 Tatnall street, Wilmington, Del., at which representatives from each faction will confer relative to the time and place for the holding of an union session. Officers will also be selected to preside at this important gathering in Wilmington. week will be known as the confessor Committee, and the following will represent the Atkins faction: Counselor J. Frank Wheaton of New York, L. Melanese King of Washington, D. C. Rev. John H. Gray of Hampton, Va, and Grand Exalted Ruler W. E. Atkins as ex-officio member. A similar number, with Grand Exalted Ruler Mills as ex-officio member, will represent the Howard faction. The Conference Committee will not discuss the question of unification, as such a step has been fully decided upon by the two exalted rulers. Since the failure of the two factions to unite last fall an attempt has been made by members of both sides to bring about a compromise. Many argued that with the white Elks making a fight against the colored body it would serve the two factions to combine and work for the general good of the Improved Benevolent Order of Elks. J Frank Wheaton, who has been selected to serve on the Conference Committee to represent the Atkins faction, is a known attorney-at-law in New York city, one of 357 W Fifty-fourth street. Before coming to New York some years ago he served as a member of the Minnesota State Legislature. He has been prominently identified in politics in this city for several years, and was the originator of the movement to entertain the members of the Tenth Cavalry upon their home coming last summer.

Prominent ministers and laymen from all over the country and the city churches will be present to take part in the God-speed. The revival services are going on with unabated interest. The results are gratifying. Rev Bolden has been assisted by Rev W S Carey and this week he will have the able help of Rev R A Morrissey, D.D, the Missionary Secretary of Zion connection William W. Long is one of the men in Mother Zion Church on whom Rev Bolden will largely depend to make the forthcoming remon, which will be given by the church the first week in March, a rousing success. Mr Long was born in Margaretsville, N.C. in 1902, and is therefore in his forty-second year. Like many other young Negro boys, education even in a most limited form was a thing ardently desired, but short and seldom attained. But being possessed of an undomitable will and a desire to be better than the boys around him, he early made up his mind to come to New York, and so he did at 12 years of age, where he has resided ever since. He never faltered in his determination to be something, to do something. He now holds a responsible position as salesman for and is at the head of the shipping department of the Blickensdorfer Typewriting Company, with offices on lower Broadway, where he is held in the highest esteem. In 1906 Mr. Long joined the Mother A. M. E Zion Church, and in the spring of the following year he was elected a trustee. In 1908 he was unanimously elected by the board of trustees as the agent of the property, a position he has filled with credit to himself and the church. Mr Long is highly regarded by his fellow trustees for his straightforward manner of saying and doing things, and as an evidence of the confidence they have in him he is a member of nearly every important committee. He is a generous contributor to the support of the church and is always among the first to respond to any worthy appeal. He is a member of several secret organizations, where his work and influence are felt. He is a Mason and a member of Adelphi Union Lodge. In 1890 he married Miss Judia Duke, of Mecklenburg. Va., and three very promising girls have blessed their union, Eva, 18; Gladys, 16, and Beatrice, 14. Mr. Long will in all probability he re-elected as a trustee, as his work since he has been on the board has been of the highest endeavor DR. CHAPMAN AT Y. M. C. A.

He spoke in part as follows: First, a moment of whisper have been power. With the sand dollar mer-chant at the door, a two-bank bank with a hand. It is not the step but the prince of the brain that makes the chimpant would greatest that man. Lesson 3. Grant was a promiscuous is a box that his mother called him Useless. Great Brain power, no essay, but it must be utilized. The Angels, the material for which it was sent, ents, brought one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. In the second place, men of achievement are observant. The man always ventured the scheme for the tunnel under the Some River discovered it by observing the worm as it worked its way through wood. The flippant, flittering life never amounts to nothing. The Scotchman who invented the suspension bridge made the discoveries by observing the spider spinning his web, and Galvano who invented the galvane hatter, made the discoveries by watching the flesh of a frog's leg rise to meet his needle. "Again, to be successful we must have the power of application. Nothing comes easy. There is no royal road to success—none to wealth, if every dollar you earn is an honest dollar. It is by going at it and sticking to it that anything is accomplished in life. "Again, another distinguishing characteristic of men of achievement is integrity. I have yet to hear of an ignorant philosopher or inventor. But morality is superior to them all. Education PRESIDENT OF THE BAPTIST MINISTRY With this man, who wore a wicked man could tap the gas mask of this city, and pump in oxygen, and in the evening when some one went to light the gas the whole city would be blown up. That's what an educated soundrel could do. An honest man will not steal." Miss Lilian Leighton Lamson, of the Star Lyceum Bureau, a young white lady of great talent, entertained an audience Tuesday night, giving the entertaining drama, "The Lion and the Mouse," taking the part of all the characters The Literary Society conducted a business men's session on Tuesday evening, and considered "Some of the Fundamental Mistakes of the Negro Business man." Next Sunday afternoon an evangelistic meeting will be held at 4 o'clock. Messrs B G Petts, William Glasgow, and Oliver Sealey, all enthusiastic evangelistic workers, will lead the meeting.

Fitsgeralé Mado Many Promises— Local Editor Uives Double Cross Personala. \Citihee Cebciniiaiadanis ot Mate Kies, Se ene tne re emee politi battle ever waged for the office of mayor «of Boston Both candidates, between whom the bitter and unrelentless fight was waged, were Democrats The vot- ers were divided between Mr Fitzger- ald and Mr Storrow Out of a registration of possibly 4,500 Negro voters, more than ¥,000 signed cards and pledged support to Mr Stor. row. Every clergyman of influence and standing, the Lusiness men almost sol- adly, as well as well-known men hereto fore prominent in politics, were with Mr Storrow A ‘majority of the colored voters are located in Wards 10, 11, 12 and 1s, and m the Dorchester distr-ct In every precinct in various wards where they vote Mr Storrow received a larger vote than either Mr Hibbard in 1907. or Lieut -Gov. Frothingham, the most pop: ular Republican in Boston, and a larger vote than ever given in these precincts heretofore to any candidate except in a presidential election So it can fairly be said that 80 per cent af not more of the colored vote stood by Mr Storrow for mayor ‘The editor of the local weekly, who 1s always “preaching righteousness and teaching “my race” how to hve, must have figured that concrete cash in hand 1s of more genuine satisfaction to him just now than abstract righteousness So tis time instead of posing as a martyr to the cause of the race, he played double cross and got the dough In considera- tion of $150 from the Storrow managers, Tne Aue representative 1s informed, the editor in question promised to keep neu- tral during tHe campaign and say noth- ing in_his paper for or against either Mr Fitzgerald or Mr Storrow He kept his part of the contract all nght until he got the Storrow money snugly tucked away im his inside pocket As this money was not handed over to him until the last week of the campaign, he was neutral up to that time. but ay soon as he received the money ‘he got busy making charges against Mr Storrow and whooping it up for Mr Fitzgerald One of this editor's allies 15 a mints- ter, who talks much but says Iittle He 1s the principal man who made the charge against Mr Storrow His word hasn't much weight, however, in matters political or otherwise, an account of his peculrarity of changing his mind about things after he has heen “seen” It :s said that he promised to do some yeo- man service for Mr Stortow as soon as he could go home and get some cer- tain papers, and that he was seen on the way by a Fitzgerald supporter and failed to return He recently favored the licensing of a dance hall to be opened in the rear of his church on the opposite side of the street. He was first opposed to the dance hall because of the harmful effects upon the young women of the race. He was seen taking a drive with a young man who was interested in the dance hall, and upon his return he favored st, “because,” he said, “if a colored man don't open one there, some white man will” Many of the Negroes who supported Mr Fitzgerald are now holding. their breaths, so to speak, while awaiting the time for the Fitzgerald promises to be fulfilled It 1s said that Mr Fitzgerald is the best promiser Boston has ever known, and that in the campaign just closed ‘he promised the same job to just one dozen colored men and to equally 1s many whites How these promises to the colored brother are going to pan cut remains to be seen But itis a safe het that nine tenths ni them will go to the ground The new city charter now provides that every candidate appointed by the mayor must be an expert in his depart ment, and must {urnish csulence of beng able to make good by passing a. civil service examination [his will bar many who are Iw-lang for sinecures, and will | als furnish a loophole for the mayor to [ose a Keeping his promises and at the same time not keep them — So, after all, ‘rerhaps the eihtor of the local sheet di | Te sine actin his hfe when he plaved {sbouble cress and got the cash instead of [premises Chas HH Saunders 1s now being at 24 Walpole street | Mr and Mrs Herhert Tucker have moved from 68% Shawmut avenue to 2) "Waltwle steer ( Gew Ao Kearney tt Warwick street, putes hay heen quite stk for seserad weeks, 18 improving Gow S buster vt Green street, Cam Nerdge, who has hee sick for 1 week. teamed his protean this week The Virgins Club yall meet on Fr ay Junie cote Hamme nd ctreet ihe McDanel Selfeggma Club will rest on Janmiry 24 at $7 Hammon 1 street Win J Strothes, a2 Warwick street whe bas been imdispased for several dass, resumed! lus position this week OMe J Walter Jabneon, » Wilham HTeerice bas bees contned te her room Her several divs Chas Ho Alexander, 6 Shawmut acai: AESEE Lit Sanita WONINg, friends in Bravulene Miss Marth y Ridhek. 20 Windsor street, who has heen lb at her heme for sever il weeks, 16 improving Mrs James So Carlos 4% Westmin ster street. 1s still ek ot her home £10,000 AT UTICA CONFERENCE, Misstastppinne iiald Rooting Farm: Tre Conventions Aries ot Prag Ttna, Mise, Jan 1s Two thonsand te ead Mle waes cant cha dren, attended the fourth annual ses. ea of the Negra Farmers’ Conference. held here anvler the auspices of the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, which came to a close last night The Conference is a part of the extension wom of the Utice Normal and ied itute, of wi 1.

It has been the ambition of women in all ages. The use of Ford's Hair Pomade makes stubborn harb, kinky or curry hair softer, more pliable and glossy, easy to comb and arrange in any style desired consistent with its length, as long as the Pomade remains in the hair. This result may be obtained by one thorough application according to directions. Two to four applications a month will keep the hair in satisfactory condition and two to four bottles regular size are usually sufficient for a year. Directions with every bottle.

Y. M. C. A. Enthusiasm Grows—Great Religious Revival—Howard Memorial Meeting. Regular Correspondence of The Asn. Pittsburg, Pa., Jan. 18—William Carmichael, one of the leading chauffeurs, has opened an automobile school at 107 Lambert street, East End. Mr. Carmichael teaches everything about automobiles and is much pleased with his success of only a few months' trial of a new business. A mass meeting under the auspices of the provisional association of the Y. M. C. A. for Negroes was held at John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church last Sunday. W. A. Hunton, international secretary of the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. of N. A.; Thomas L. Taylor, secretary of a branch for colored men in Indianapolis, and E. R. Sams, president of the Pilgrim Bible Class, this city, were the speakers. All spoke of the need of a branch for Negroes, and expressed hopes that Negroes would accept the offers made by the Y. M. C. A., which would be a guarantee that they would soon have a building The first important move was made at a banquet when the professional and business men endorsed it, after which a number of preachers were invited to J T. Wrett's catering establishment, 209 Fourth avenue. After several speeches the pastors pledged their support. Headquarters for the Negroes have been opened at Wylie avenue and Townsend street. It is the consensus of opinion of all that it is only a question of a few months when Pittsburgh will have a colored branch of the Y. M C A. One of the most impressive religious scenes recently witnessed here was seen at 10 45 p. m. Thursday on Wylie avenue. This was the second week of the great union revival started by Bethel A. M. E. St. Paul A. M. E., John Wesley A. M. E. Zion and Plymouth Congregational churches. Last Thursday night fully three hundred women and men, representing Pittsburg's best families, marched from John Wesley Church on Wylie avenue to Fulton, thence through the red light districts, singing as they marched—"Where He Leads Me, I Will Follow" Revs. C. P. Herrington, W. L. Lee, S. A. Virgil, P. E. Mills and W. H. Price, pastors of St. Paul, John Wesley, Warren M. E. Bethel and Plymouth churches, respectively, led the line of march. The inclementy of the weather added much to the impressiveness of the occasion. Hail, snow and rain made it difficult for pedestrians to go about, but in the midst of it all, the fine soprano voice of Mrs. K. C. Stuart and those of hundreds of other Christian, self-sacrificing women and men made an impression that will never be forgotten by those who saw it. After singing and praying in a red light district, followed by women and men who left their places of sin—crying "What must we do to be saved?" the procession marched to Bethel, where several conversions were reported. At 12:45 the congregation was dismissed with earnest appeals from the pulpit to meet at 3 o'clock the next day. Rev. W. H Price, a graduate from Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., is perhaps the youngest preacher in Pennsylvania. Rev. Price came to the city about a year ago as pastor of Plymouth Congregational Church. He said as long as these meetings last they will be conducted from one of the five churches under whose auspices the revival is held. "We have no hall," he continued, "at which to meet permanently and not wishing to be accused of working in the interest of any one church is the reason we decided on present plans. We are after saving souls and not to work in the interest of any denomination." Howard University of Washington, D. C., was brought prominently before Pittsburgers at Trinity Congregational Church last Monday night in a large memorial meeting to General O. O Howard, founder of Howard. The memorial held here was the same held in various cities, where a sufficient number of graduates are located. Every department of Howard University is represented by graduates in Pittsburg, the majority of whom are creditably following their profession. Among these Attorney J Wifred Holmes and Dr. J. B Shepard occupy a place in the front rank of their profession. In addition to has comfortable income from the practice of Law, Mr. Holmes is furnishing employment to three young men as clerks in a very up-to-date drug store of which he is proprietor Rev Scott Wood graduated from the law department of Howard Believing he could render better service to humanity. Rev Wood chose the ministry as his life work. St Augustines Mission this city of which he is the priest in charge, is an example of his perseverance and success in his well-chosen field of labor. This mission was organized in 1905, with ten communicals, in permanent place of worship, no money and only eight children in the Sunday school. During the last four years the membership has been increased to 135, 65 pupils in the Sunday school, with an average attendance of 400 individuals and families to the services which are always interesting and helpful. The valuation of the missions property is $7,000, and 28 persons have been presented to the bishop for confirmation. Every Christmas and Thanksgiving the mission makes donations to the poor. Rev Wood has resumed his settlement work, for which he has opened a house at 80 Fulton street. Rev J S Lee, the pastor of the church in which the exercises were held, came to the city several years ago as pastor of Bethel A M E Church; at that time he was regarded as one of the most powerful and scholarly men of that connection After filling the pulpit of Bethel with credit to himself and church, Rev Lee withdrew from the whole connection and founded an independent congregational church, which he christened Trinity and which is regarded as one of our leading churches. Within three years the Rev. Lee has erected a church that would be creditable to a much older congregation. His congregation is representative from every viewpoint, and many are the regrets that the A. M. E. Church lost the services of a man so valued. Dr. James A. Page came to the city a little over three years ago, and has built up a practice sufficiently lucrative to justify the assertion that he made no mistake in locating here. This is a brief story of the uplifting work in which some of the Howard University graduates are engaged in this city. It has been a long time since Pittsburgers have been entertained with a program so replete with men who are workers for our uplift as was the following Music, by the choir; invocation, Rev M B.

J., Jan. 18—For some time there has been talk of a new building being erected by Mt. Olive Baptist Church, and evidently few took it for granted that it would come to pass as soon as it probably will. Just now the pastor, Rev. M. W. Vaughan, and his congregation have under consideration the building of their new edifice, the plans and specifications for which are complete. Accordingly the new church will be one of the finest colored churches in this section. It will be erected on the present site, corner of West Third and Liberty streets. The plans are very unique; the exterior will be of brownstone and concrete. Work will probably begin in the spring. Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church has announced its intention of preparing for their spring fair. A meeting was called for Tuesday, January 18. The reports read by the secretaries of the various auxiliaries to the church and of the Sunday School at the last quarterly meeting show that Mt. Zion is standing strong. She shows no signs of decline. The pastor, Rev. J. T. Diggs, is doing a great work. Calvary Baptist Church has been open to revivals for the past week. Rev. G. W. Bailey is conducting the meetings with occasional assistance from out of town. The Sunday School is improving steadily under its leader, Lewis Booket. Shiloh has the attention of Rev. E. W. Roberts, present pastor at Roselle, N. J., who will take charge some time in March. The church is steadily growing. The Plainfield Lyceum held its regular fortnightly meeting at Shiloh Baptist Church on last Sunday. A short but splendid program was rendered which was very pleasing in its entirety. The feature of the meeting was the singing of a trio from the boys' quartet, consisting of Master Fred Vaughn, Ralph Green and Gerard Nelson. Miss Anna Davidson read a very interesting and instructive paper. The next meeting will be held at Shiloh on Sunday, January 30. The Nonpariel Social Club gave a smoker on last Saturday night at its meeting rooms, Front street, during which plans were discussed and preparations were made for their annual ball to be given on February 10 at Sangerburd Hall. Mrs. Georgia Estelle and Mrs. Eva Brittan, both of Saratoga, were recent visitors to Plainfield. Peter Peterson, an aged and respected resident and citizen of Perth Amboy, died on January 4 at his late residence, 175 Elm street, in his eightieth year Death was sudden, occurring as a shock from the notice he received of the death of his niece, Miss Jane R. Johnson, familiarly known as "Jennie" to whom he was devoted and who died on the morning of January 4. Mr Peterson was formerly a resident of New York City and on moving to Perth Amboy he began business, keeping a restaurant and boarding house, in which capacity he was employed to his death He was a brother of Thomas Peterson, who it was said was the first Negro voter in the United States after the Emancipation Proclamation and who received a gold medal accordingly He was also a brother to Lewis Peterson of Plantfield, residing at 517 East Third street. Mr Peterson leaves a widow and one son, Thomas Peterson, also a brother, whose name is Nelson Peterson. The funeral services were held at his late residence. The remains were bid to rest at the Presbyteran Cemetery in the city's plot. Mrs. Matte Furman, of 538 West Fourth street, through the columns of The Ace hopes to find her brother, Alfred Jackson, who when last seen was a porter in Wagner's Palace Car Company, running from Orlando, Fla., in 1889.

His death occurred in the aPterson General Hospital. At the services Rev. E. F. Eggleston was assisted by several visiting clergymen, nine of whom were present as follows: Revs C. H Trusty, of Jersey City; Jas E. Carlisle, of Troy, N. Y.; Horace G. Miller, of New York City; Byron Gunner and J A. Caldwell, of Hillburn, N Y; S J. P Hood, of East Orange, and W H Batchellar and J H. Randolph, of Paterson. The arrangements for the funeral were in charge of Undertaker James E. Churchman and interment was made in the family plot in Laurel Grove Cemetery. Floral pieces were received as follows: A wreath each from his teacher and classmates of Grammar School No. 6; one from his Sabbath School and another from the officers of St. Augustine Church, of which he was a member. Other persons sending floral pieces were Mr. and Mrs. Wesley McKinney, W. C Monroe, Willie Green, Mrs. Wm. Flanigan and Miss Sarah Waterford, Rev. and Mrs. W. H. Batchellar, Mrs. J. H. Dempsey, Mrs. Enla Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. John V. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. S. P. Hinton, Mrs. Mary Hart. The deceased was the son of Rev. Thomas H. Jr., and Ida B. Amos. He was born in Abbeville, S. C. July 21, 1907. He united with the church at the age of ten years, and was aspiring to the ministry. He first showed symptoms of tubercular ailment in October, but was not thought to be seriously affected until the disease was located in his abdomen. When this was discovered he was hastened to the hospital for an operation, but did not appear strong enough to undergo what was necessary. He very meekly gave up hope of getting well and very gently informed his parents that his end was approaching. A few weeks before his sickness he became agent for the New York Age and obtained sixty customers. One of the most splendid social events in the history of Paterson was the dinner given by bourteen of Paterson's men in honor of their wives and ladies friends. We are not furnished with the names of the participants, but from the account of the affair rendered to us by Caterer S. G. Walker, we concede that the event has not been surpassed. We cannot refrain from giving our endorsement to entertainments of this kind from the simple fact that they lift the social standard of our entertainments above the usual where the mixing of all classes and the excessive drinking and extreme rudeness operate against the interests of the race. It is extremely gratifying to observe several signs of progress in the race in Paterson. For the getting together of our men like Walker and Hooper and Darkless Board Monroe John Jones the Hintons Mason and a score of others is generally urged. Paterson has a bad name but she has at least fifty men approachable and progressive. Buffalo Wedding Aniversary; Regular Correspondence of Twin Ago. BuFall, N. Y.
