Stubbs of Kansas, was seriously considering His Appointment Friend nor Foe Responsible—Trouble Said to Have Been Due to Register's inability to Decide Which Job He Wanted. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Topeka, Kan, Nov 15—Rev. J. R. Ransom, of this city, has come out in an open statement denying the report that Bishop Grant and his associates on the trustee board of Quindaro College had been disloyal to W. T Vernon in not restoring him to the presidency of the school. Rev. Ransom claims the present Register of the Treasury is responsible for adverse conditions. Rev Ransom's statement My attention has been called to an editorial which appeared in the Washington Bee of October 29, commenting upon the election of Dr H. T. Kealing as the successor of Dr. W. T. Vernon to the presidency of Western University, and which, as paying an appellation to the character of Dr. Kealing, proceeds to comment upon Bishop Grant and his associates on the Trustee Board, or as he calls them, "high dignitaries and functionaries of the A. M. E. Church," and says that another member of their church into the presidency of Quindaro, they ought to have sufficient "pull" to restore Dr. Vernon to the school he built up, and then proceeds to charge that Dr. Vernon should not be a friend of his friends. The above mentioned editorial is far fetched and misleading. Therefore, in justice to Dr Vernon, his friends and his foes, it is but fair that I give the facts in this case, for we are taught not to judge men by what we may, but by what we may, after strict, due and lawful examination, find them so to be. Gov Stubbs Advised Vernon to Give Up Politics. Neither Dr. Vernon's friends nor his foes are responsible for it being out of the school at Quindale or the Registration in Washington. Just after the State election two years ago, Hon. R. Stubbs who, as the Republican nominee, was the State of Kansas, was in Washington. Dr. Vernon called upon him at his rooms and Mr. Stubbs advised Dr. Vernon to give politics and return to the school work at Quindale, saying that he was not in favor of his being Register of the University and President Welfare Union, and that time. About one year thereafter, the Governor informed me of what he had told Dr. Vernon. We did he good do for what the Governor had said to us and insisted that he resign in Washington and come to the school July 4. Dr. Vernon promised us that he would do so, and that it was better to finish out his term as register of the Treasury. "He is to hold a conference with Gov. Stuart at which time he agreed that when he had finished out his term of four years, he would return to the active presidency of Western University, as the Governor would not be able to attend an event on leave of absence with someone else doing the work. Hence, the Governor told the Board of Regents that if Dr. Vernon wished to return to the Quindaro school he might, as far as he was concerned, to that him at $2,600 for the first year, after which he would pass on to a good, strong appraisal enabling him to spend the year. Therefore, the Board thought of nothing but the return of our good friend, Dr Vernon. "But, in April of this year, Dr. Vernon wrote me to talk to him with his friends and see the ladies of both factions in the Republic party and prepared to attend when he went to Washington. In the month I carried out my work, almost every friend I met I talked said he must stay by all means. All the friends in the Republic party said he must stay by the Inaugurals." Tendered Resignation Last June I informed him as he had to do, but told him to take the best for himself when he was ill. I told him in the thickest of the furthest he be consulted in the province. The Ransom I wanted to see. Then I said Doctor then to yourself whole with Gov Stubbs, a nice letter thanking him for friendship to you and telling you he declared that you were sending with your resignation to the of Regents of Western University he said that he would but after did not think it was the thing to when he came West in June to final meeting of the Board and announcement he did resign, and after for the good doctor had resided on the tenth of July foll- returned to Kansas and application for re-election. The of Regents was willing for his The New York Age return and had him call on the Governor When he informed Governor Stubbs that he wished to come back and take charge of the school, Mr. Stubbs advised us that on condition that we were at Vernon and return to the school, we might, if we wished, reelect him. On July 15, we elected Dr. Vernon President of Western University at a salary of $2,000 for the first year and with an understanding that we were to give an understanding that we would be in condition that he resign and return to take full charge of the school by August 15, 1910. "For some unknown cause to the Governor and Board of Regents. Dr Vernon did not return to the West until September 22, when, in fact, the school opened September 11, when the school now was ill, but did not say whether or not he was going to resign and come to the school as soon as his health permitted. All sorts of rumors were flying through the newspapers in the East (the Bee) and through the West (the Send) and them to us as well as to the Governor. Hence, when the good doctor returned September 22, we, the Board of Regents, informed him that it was now up to the Governor to accept or reject him. In view that a committee of his own creation had waited upon Governor Stubba in Dr Vernon's interest asking him to permit that he remain in Washington City as Register of the Treasury and also, in view that the University on leave of absence, this so provoked the Governor that he would not hear Dr Vernon's or the Board of Regents' explanation. Since the Governor had told the Board to select another great big man and also written to Dr Booker T. Washington to recommend someone to take charge of the Quindaro School, and he (Dr. Washington) recommended five persons, Prof. H. T Kealing being one of them, and there for the Board of Regents to do, except to step down and out or get the other man? Friends Stood by Register. "Bishop Grant and the Board have done everything that Dr. Vernon has asked them to do, even after Dr. Vernon had told President Taft that he did not want to stay in Washington an any longer than his term, but he changed his mind and decided that he would like to serve another term, Bishop Grant went to the President in his behalf, and while President Taft said he had partially promised the place to another man, because it was his understanding that Dr. Vernon had his stage longer than his term out, yet he had not gone so far that he could not retain him. So, the next day, Dr. Vernon and myself went out and lined up the whole Kansas delegation in Congress. "Stand firm," he said, "and national Committeeman, and many other leading Republicans of the State Hence, we all know that up to and including the month of July, Dr. Vernon could have stayed at Treasury, up to September 12 he could have been President of Western University. His enduring is wholly due to his inability to decide whether to continue the utilization of the biggest kind to charge that Dr Vernon's friends or faces are responsible for his present condition. He fell upon his own wisdom, but I am for truth and fair play as against the world." INDEPENDENT VOTING IN "CHI." Many Negroes -Vote the Democratic Ticket -Ed Green Elected to Legislature -Frank Leland Defeated for County Commissioner. Special to THE NEW YORK AOE. Chicago, Ill. Nov. 15—Those who are in a position to know, say that never in the history of politics in this city, so far as the colored people are concerned, has there been so much independent voting as in the election last week. Thousands of Negro voters were not amenable to party discipline or party coaxing. A few years ago Negroes who wanted to vote a Democratic ticket went about it sneakingly and bore evidence in his face of a guilty conscience. In one club, composed of Negro men, none of whom are office holders or aspirants for office, it is reported that over 50 per cent of them voted the Democratic ticket. The "hoos," who at one time controlled and dictated to these men, is completely shorn of his power and influence. Whatever may be the cause, the situation is altogether puzzling to those who are students of politics. If the intelligent Negro of the country is becoming more independent and less sentimental in exercising his political rights, may assert that it is something to be thankful for. The cause of clean and patriotic politics will be advanced by the exercise of the sort of independence that will make for good citizenship rather than good politics. In the Lindahl that has excepted the Republican party out of power in Chicago, it is gratifying to see that one red man, Hilda Lindahl, Green can state for the State Legislature, voted Frank Lindahl on the Republican ticket for Court Commissioner, set down under the flood of Demo votes that overwhelmed all of his votes for the same office. APPOINTED DISTRICT DEPUTY O. W. W. Appointing Exalted Ruler Blair. He to the office of district deputy of Massachusetts. The newly appointed district deputy is the youngest in the order. He has laid out a definite policy in Massachusetts which he hopes to put into operation by the coming of the Grand Lodge convention which will be held here in August. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1910. CHARLES H. TURPIN ELECTED CONSTABLE Comes Out Victorious in Contest With Democratic Opponent WINS FIRST-ELECTIVE OFFICE Negro and White Republicans Give Strong Support—Daly Defeated by 618 Votes in Fourth District. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. St Louis, Mo., Nov. 15.—On November 8, Charles H. Turpin was elected constable of the Fourth District, which marked the first time in the history of this city that a Negro has been honored with an elective office. When Mr Turpin made the announcement a few months' ago that he was an aspirant for the office, many Negro voters were greatly surprised at what they considered his temerity. However, he won the nomination for constable on the Republican ticket and came out victorious last week at the polls. The Fourth District comprises the Sixth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth wards, and Mr Turpin polled 4,049 votes, a plurality of 618 over L D Daly, his white opponent on the Democratic ticket. Many of the Democrats in the district regarded Mr. Turpin's candidacy as a joke, but they were shocked on the morning of November 9, to find that the Negroes in the Fourth District had given the Republican candidate strong support and that many white Republicans had voted for him. The Central Afro-American, a young colored newspaper, published by hustling St. Loussans, also did effective work. The following letter of thanks has been extended by the constable-elect to Council asking that Jennings be removed To the voters of the Fourth District I take this opportunity to thank each and every one of the 4.04 voters of this district for their support and for my election on November last, and to assure that the commissioner constable that will be placed in my charge will be jealously guarded and protected I promise to keep it free from any stain or blemish My every act will be open at all times so the inspection any one way that the commissioner constable To the many friends who so lovely supported me. I also wish to give my heartfelt thanks. They are legion Space will not permit the mention of their names nor of their services. Many acts of veneration and kind work I do not even know of at this time and some I may never know of because of modesty on the part of the performers thereof, were performed. Again thanking one and all for their kindness, friendship and love to which I shall ever cherish I am Mr Turpun is very popular in St. Louis, where he has resided for many years. He has been identified with local politics for some time, and was one of the founders of the Negro Republican League Club. He is married TO WORK TOGETHER Various Divisions of the Order of True Business Affairs on a Solid Footing Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Richmond, Va. Nov. 15. From every part of the country messages of encouragement are being received and the provaluing sentiment is that the various divisions should get together and get the True Reformers out of its present financial predicament. At a recent meeting of the Richmond Division, which was largely attended and presided over by Grand Master Holmes, the following resolution was adopted: Whereas we, the True Reformers of Richmond Division of the Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers, in common with the Brotherhood, feel keenly our distress circumstances and the economic benefits in that our bank being in the hands of receivers, we are, nevertheless, not unmindful of the great good that has been done by our Order, and we feel that under the lead of our present for our War the Hunter. At the time of this resolution the difference and surmount the difficulties, which we are so reminded thereof, that we must together in solid plains, and in our hearts, our hearts and our hearts and must unite with us. Further, with the help of the reformers, we want to end and end the division of the District and we are published in the winter and colored friends to our and know our determination in this respect. The resolution was presented by I. Henry Cunningham. DR LYON COMING HOME Dr. Ernest Ivon, ex United States Minister to Liberia, will arrive at New York on the Camard steamer Carmania November 20.

FAIR PLAY FOR EGRO Columbia Daily State Demanded Release of Farmer Who Was Arrested for Shooting of Trusty. Special to THE NEW YORK TIMES Columbia, S. C., Nov. 14—The Columbia Daily State, one of the most influential papers of the State, has been instrumental in securing fair play in the courts for Ned Blackwell, a Negro farmer of Clarendon County. A Negro farmer named Blackwell, of Clarendon county—a man who makes about one hundred bucks a month—at Manning, held, without ball, pending the result of a pistol shot wounds inflicted by him upon a chalanggw 'trusty' who came to Blackwell's house armed with gun of course, in a manner and refused to leave when ordered away. According to our diapatches from Manning a convict escaped from the chalangay, and the "trusty"—wearing striped we presume—armed and one in search of the convict. This was an extraordinary procedure. No convict, white, black or yellow, should be sent abroad clothed with powers of a deputy officer and with authority and with firearms to make a capture, dead or alive. That is giving high dignity to the statue of the convict, as the badge of humiliation status. Delegating a convict to deputy and sending him abroad is responsibility for that shooting, a convict armed and at large is, the world over, considered in an outlaw, and a deadly menace to a man's home, acts severely and refuses to leave when ordered off, what is the householder to do? Had Ned Blackwell been a white farmer "growing 100 bales of cotton" and having the same respect of his neighbors enjoyed by the Negro farmer and had to wound his convict and have him house, acted suspiciously and refused to move on, would the white farmer be held in jail without bail pending the result of the convict's injuries? Most emphatically, No Blackwell should have the liberty at once. In an editorial reviewing and commenting on the case the Smith said. Many white citizens have also condemned the actions of the authorities in holding Blackwell a prisoner under the circumstances. SITUATION IN WEST VIRGINIA Not Much Danger of Democratic Legislature Trying to Disfranchise Negro—MacCorke Friendly to Race Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Wheeling, W. Va., Nov 15. There has been some talk by the Democrats of West Virginia seeking to disfranchise the Negro voters in the event of the election of a Democratic legislature. However, the Negroes of the state did not believe that such a step would be taken. It can be demolished if there were hundreds of Negroes who would favor a Democratic W. MacCook who ran for the United States Senate, but the ex-convict is always been a friend of the race. Since I did better elections, Governor McCook gave on the following statement: My attention is entitled to an editorial in which you challenge me to say that I am opposed to legislation looking towards the disfranchisement of the colored race. I think you are willing to rather my answer the spirit of fairness that I believe will characterize you in this discussion. I wish to say frankly, plainly and unequivocally that I am opposed to the disfranchisement of the Negro race, and am opposed to any other laws bearing unequally upon the Negro. This is not a mere election need with me. For twenty years I have pressed and advocated laws bearing equally upon the black and the white in the South. In the Huntaville convention—one of the greatest conventions ever assembled in the South, and in the very heart of the South I appealed for the passage which would bear equally upon the black and the white elections in those States. It was through my efforts that the first resolution asking for equal and exact treatment of the Negro was ever passed through a southern convention. Fifteen years ago I represented the side of the Negro in the great Montgomery convention, and in the exact justice to the Negro in all matters pertaining to the election franchise. My book which has been published over this country carries out my views of this matter. In the Democratic convention two years ago, I will tell the circumstances of my life, the passage of that resolution. It did not not my apprehension, nor the anticipation of any of my friends. It was not a mistake which oftentimes when the act without due consideration of a question, I say it is to get the credit of the Democratic party in West Virginia and if the question should continue up in that legislature I wish always been, opposed to any franchise legislation, or any other legislation which will not act with absolute and exact evenness and fairness upon both white and black. I did not think it was necessary for me to state my position upon this proposition, as it is so thoroughly well known all over the South and in West Virginia. I did not think it was necessary for your courtesies in allowing me to answer your editorial through the columns of your paper. Other prominent Democrats throughout the state have also gone on record as being opposed to Negro disfranchisement in West Virginia. THOUSANDS ATTEND SOUTH CAROLINA FAIR Most Successful Exhibition Ever Held by Negroes of State GOVERNOR ANSEL SPEAKS Over 20,000 Persons at Fair on Thursday—Rev. Richard Carroll Re-elected President of Association. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Columbia, S. C., Nov. 15.—Through the untruring efforts of Rev. Richard Carroll, president of the Negro State Fair Association, the greatest Negro fair ever held in this State, was the event that brought thousands of people from every section of South Carolina and points in Georgia to this city last week. The features of the fair were the exhibits showing the industrial, educational and commercial progress of the Negro in South Carolina. The interest manifested by the people in the rural districts of the State showing the substantial progress made by the race was significant. The exhibits of the various schools in the State were highly creditable. The booth occupied by the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association of Durham, N. C., the largest Negro insurance company in the world, had exhibits showing the healthy growth of this company and reflecting credit upon the Negro people for having men in the race capable of mastering large affairs in the life insurance world. The Durham Textile Mills of Durham, N. C., had exhibits of their products. The activities of Negroes in an unusual field of industrial pursuits occasioned commendable comments from prominent white men of South Carolina who attended. Governor Ansel spoke to 8,000 people at the fair grounds Friday morning. At least 21,000 people passed through the gates of the fair on last Thursday. Among the prominent Negroes attending the fair from North Carolina were Captain J. E. Hamlin of Raleigh, secretary of the North Carolina Industrial Association, that hold big fairs annually, Dr M T Pope of Raleigh, a member of the same association, Dr A M Moore, president of the Durham Textile Mill, and secretary of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association of Durham, Professor J M Avery, assistant general manager of the North Carolina Mutual and Provident Association of Durham. Rev Carroll refused to allow his home to be used again for the office of president of the association, but the influential white citizens of the city and all the leading Negroes in South Carolina urged him to continue as president of the association, and despite his protestations to the contrary, he was unanimously re elected president. The other officers he elected were Dr W D Chaparro, John Columba, a vice president, Robertson B. Smith, secretary, Dr J H Goodman of West Virginia superintendent, T A Williams of Newberry, treasurer. The executive board, composed of members from various sections of the State, were re elected. IF YOU Want to Rent a Furnished Room advertise in The Age. Want a Furnished Room look in The Age. ADVERTISE IN THE AGE YOU WILL GET RESULTS LET US DO YOUR JOB PRINTING VIRGINIAN'S RECORD For Forty Years Edward Brown Has Been Connected with the State Library at Richmond and Has Never Missed a Day. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. Richmond, Va, Nov 12—Forty years of punctuality at his work, with not a day's absence for illness or any other cause, is a remarkable record, even for a Negro employee. Such is sad to be the record of Edward Brown, the faithful and intelligent assistant in the office of the state law library at Richmond. Brown was merely a janitor when he was first employed, but when the extensive law library owned by Virginia was removed once or twice he became more familiar with the contents of the library and the location of the various volumes than are the librarians, who in the mutations of politics have been changed frequently since Brown began his humble work for the state. As soon as his fidelity and efficiency and his all-round usefulness were recognized, he was made an assistant and has continued to serve the state, being found there every working day as regularly as the volumes on the shelves Polite and attentive to all who called, this faithful and intelligent Negro has grown in usefulness and value and has thereby become a fixture. No man is indispensable in any position, but this Negro, now three score years of age, is perhaps as nearly so as any employee of the state. A remarkable memory adds to his usefulness. Brown has just got into print conspicuously by reason of the attainment of his 40th year of continuous service, during which he has not lost a day. Such a record deserves recognition and reward. His case is refutation of theories of the prevalence of strong and indiscriminate race prejudice in the South. Mr. Brown enjoys the respect and confidence of the lawyers with whom he comes in daily contact and is accorded it. He holds a responsible position and one difficult to fill, notwithstanding the fact that his skin is black. The people of the South recognize fidelity and intelligent, faithful service in a Negro and honor him for it. He is an example to his race. By emulating him all may enjoy the respect and confidence of the whites. INTER-COLLEGIATE PRIZE ESSAY Through the generosity of the Hon. R. W. Tyler, Washington, D.

Special to New York Age. Worcester, Mass, Nov 15 Daniel Murray, assistant librarian of Congress, was in this city last week in the interest of the estate of the late John Savary, who died some months ago, leaving an estate valued at $75,000. Mr Murray, who is executor, was left three thousand and dollars to attend to some special literary work left unfinished by the testator aside from managing the estate.

Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS NEGRO VOTE IN NORTH CAROLINA There Are 30,000 Eligible Colored Voters In "Tar Heel" State Both Republicans and Democrats Made Strong Bid For Vote at Election Last Week DISFRANCHISE THEMSELVES Hundreds of Intelligent Voters, Fall to Pay their Poll Taxes—Investigation Shows Conditions are Encouraging. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Wilson, N. C., Nov. 15—Investigation shows that there are at least 30,000 colored voters in North Carolina who are eligible to register and vote. But this is not the most surprising feature. The white Democrats do not object to the Negroes registering and voting in most parts of the State when they are eligible under the law; in fact, during the campaign which just came to a close, the Negro vote was really sought after by both Democrats and Republicans. A large proportion of the Negroes who vote are said to have voted for Democrast, who are known to be friendly to the race. Dr. Booker T. Washington was heard to remark during his tour through the State, in the presence of several gentleman that before coming to North Carolina he had not fully approved of the policy of Dr. George W. Clement, editor of the Star of Zion, and other colored men who have thought and acted with Dr. Clement, but often seeing the results of the policy pursued by Dr. Clement, Dr. Washington stated he was fully convinced of his wisdom, and the present healthy condition so far as Negroes voting in North Carolina is concerned, could not have been brought about except through the policy pursued by Dr. Clement and others It was noticeable, how yet, that in North Carolina, as in too many other Southern States, the greater part of the intelligent and property holding colored people, who do not vote, are not prevented by the white people, but they disfranchise themselves, because they do not pay their poll taxes. After careful inquiry through the State, your correspondent was not able to find a single case where an intelligent and substantial colored man was prevented from registering and voting, provided he complied with the requirements of the law. Of course, there may be many sections where they are prevented through illegal methods, but the writer did not hear of them. PROTEST AGAINST APPOINTMENT Negro Citizens of Salt Lake City Do Not Relish the Idea of Hugh Jenkins Being Made Patrolman Because He Has a White Wife. Special to THE NEW YORK ANN. Salt Lake City, Utah, Nov 14.—The colorful citizens here are aroused over the appointment of Hugh Jennings as a patrolman of the Salt Lake police force, and a protest has been filed with the City Council askin gthat Jennings be removed. The principal objection to Jennings, it seems, is that he has a white wife. The protest filed by the Negro citizens reads as follows: The American party gives a direct insult to the colored women of Salt Lake by appointing of High Jenkins a appointed man with a white wife, as a member of the Salt Lake police department as a representative of the colored population of Salt Lake. The American party gives a direct insult to the most intelligent and most country whoso lends are hardworking citizens. Why the American party should be so eager to offer an insult to the American city is more the way the and respected citizens of the city can understand. The American party has appointed two colored men to post- tions both of whom are husbands of the Colored colon. Jones collects the garbage, and is president of the Colored American club. This is true in spite of the laws of Utah, where the intermarriage of the white and colored people is legal. In spite of that the American party, by such appointments seems to put a premium up and encourage this among the races. The respectable colored people of Salt Lake, who are local citizens, are ignored entirely. No action has been taken by the City Council in the matter TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Dr. Simms, the Celebrated Pastor Given a Resception by His Devoted People—The Church Shows Great Progress. On Wednesday evening, November 9, an appreciative audience assembled in the beautiful and commodious auditorium of the Dr. G. H. Simms, the celebrated pastor. The occasion was the twelfth anniversary of his remarkable pastorate in Greater New York. The choir, under the leadership of Professor A. Green, and the band, headed by leadership of Deacon Chapela, rendered superb music. Professor E. A Jackson was at the organ and sustained his musical reputation. Trustee G. W. Baptist was the master of ceremonies, and attested to the procession to preside. The expressions from the many friends and the auxiliaries of the church were positive, full, substantial and encouraging. They impinged manners, the appreciation and the prayers. Dr Sims, they told of their prayers for his continued health and usefulness; and they were loud in their expressed purpose to uphold his arms, encourage his heart and to support him loyalty in the future, as they have done in the past. They think that Dr Sims is a Godless blessing to the church, to the community, to the city, and to his race. All admit the fact that his great influence has benefited every colored person in New York and vicinity in a moral way. Flowers, music, kind words, and finance told the story of their abiding love for him. The purse, which they gave as a subsistence of the church, the shepherd, amounted to $913.48. Mrs. Dr. Slims and little Miss Edith Thema Slims, the new comer, were happy recipients of useful presents. At the conclusion of the veneration, Mrs. Slims, J. W. Wallace, børkof, Va., prayer was offered for little Edith. At this point Dr. Slims was called on to respond. He arose, and in his characteristic, but masterly, manner, expressed his gratitude for kindness shown and him kindness to serve them more faithfully in the future, and expressed his hearty good wishes for those who had shown such unusual interest in his welfare. He briefly addressed the yearly audience the people, and showed conclusively that under Divine leadership he has improved the moral, social and religious conditions of the church 75 per cent. As a wise far-sighted public-spirited race leader, he has been a great peer in the American Negro pulpit. Mrs. Dr. Sims, his amiable and accomplished wife, is a real pastor's companion, and leaves no stone unturned in promoting his welfare, and in looking after the interest of her husband's charge. She is an angel of love and mercy, and she carries light and comfort wherever she goes. The deacons and trustees in full and hearty devotion to the administration and their devotion to their pasts nothing less than remarkable. They are a united people. All who visited our church on Sunday morning had a great treat. Dr P. J. Wallace, the distinguished pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church, Norfolk, Va., told me that in 11 A. M. he preached on the Incarnated Word "All who heard expressed themselves and declared the sermon was a masterpiece. At 2 P. M. the Sunday School convened, under the directions of Superintendent, Dr. J. Wallace, a master of clock, under the directions of the president, Mrs. R. Brice, had a fine service. The B. Y. P. U., under Mrs. A. Williams, was out in full at 5:30. At 7:30 P. M. the evening service began with a testimonial meeting with the Superintendent. The supper was commemorated, Dr. P. J. Wallace was present, and spoke briefly concerning Calvary Harlem A. M. E. Zion Churoh. The services were largely attended both morning and evening at "Little Zion" last Sunday. Dr McMullen, the pastor, preached at both services. His sermon in the evening was very practical, dealing in larger numbers in congregating on the street corners by a class of our citizens, to the disgust and to the discredit of the race. He commended the spirit of the colored papers in calling attention to these evils among our people. The Mite Society has planned and a splendid program will be rendered. St Mark's Church The pulpit was filled last Sunday morning by Rev R. E. Jones, the brilliant editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate. His subject was the man and the church. He made it clear that the Christ-like life is one of unselfish service. He then digressed for a while describing the true and the false leaders and their methods in seeking recognition. At the evening services communion was held, and eight persons were received as full members. The lyceum on last Thursday evening was well attended and very interesting. Dr. Mason of the Freedman's Aid Society, Dr. R. L. Longgood of Samuel Hinton College, Dr. O. Connell, District Superintendent of the Delaware Conference, made addresses Among the distinguished persons at the lyceum were Counsellor Wilford H. Smith, Mrs. W. A. Hunton, and Mrs. Amanda Smith, evangelist. The Sunday meeting largely attended The Sunday dress by Rev J. A. Rush, pastor of Central M E Church, Atlanta. Ga. He spoke upon the responsibilities that rest upon those of us in New York, not only a church but as a part of this great nation. Dr. Lovinggood also spoke of his struggles in building up a great school. The Tenth Anniversary of St. Mark's did itself great honor in sending two delegates to the great anniversary dinner on last Friday evening. More than 2,000 were present. The president, A E Sanner and E V Brodnaxn the St Mark's Office correspondent were representatives.

Hunt Barron Wilkins in Harlem. Baron D Wilkins, whose cafe in the Herald Square district was for so many years the best known pleasure resort owned by a New York colored man, has taken charge of his brother's business and seventh avenue, simply as a manager. He will remain there until next fall. Already Mr Wilkins' followers have found out where he is. Baron Wilkins had his license renewed because he would not allow the Committee of Fourteen, one of the reform cabals of reform-affected New York, to run his business. The Committee wanted Mr. Wilkins to forbid white people frequenting his place, and to prevent him from the laws of the State of New York nor was he prepared to willingly bow to an edict of the angels who were concerned more about other things than about his moral health. A few weeks will yet be written on this closely committee, its apostles and its prophets. The colored people who are forbidden the inside of places kept in the style that is part of the history of Cafe Wilkins will be glad to learn that Mr. Wilkins will reopen at the old stand next year. Until then his friends and patrons must conten themselves with glass glasses by wipe the reform twins Whitling and Hook may sit and feast in peace, and plenty. The Astoria will be renovated to suit Mr Wilkins' taste, and when the fixings are completed it will be in a class alone Herald Square will miss the prince of his kind, a sportman, a businessman, a patron, and Harlem is already anxiously waiting to receive him in befitting style.

"Any recognition of distinguished Negroes, any appointment to office from among their number, is properly taken on an encouragement and an appreciation of their progress, and this just policy shall be pursued." "Personally, I have not the slightest rose prejudice or feeling, and recognition of its existence only awakens in my heart a deeper sympathy for those who have to hear or suffer from it, and I question the wisdom of a policy which is likely to increase it." Extracts from the inaugural Address of William H. Taft. THE REPUBLICAN LEADER. In respect of the avalanche that overtook us on a recent black Tuesday, THE ACK desires to pay a just tribute to the accepted leader of the colored Republicans of the State of New York. Charles W. Anderson gave the finest possible services in the effort to stem the tide that came with terrific force from the ocean of unrest. He led brilliantly. He spoke often, and, of course, well. He arranged and directed more meetings and rallies than any other single leader in the city. He emerges from the battle defeated, but not disheartened. He is a warm-hearted, resourceful political general, and already, with accustomed courage, he is preparing to lead his forces, this time to victory, in what promises to be the memorable campaign of 1912. A RIGHTEOUS JUDGE At last a United States Judge has been found with courage and wisdom to declare the various schemes for disfranchising the Negro votes in the Southern States unconstitutional. The Judge who has thus distinguished himself is Judge Thomas J. Morris, of the United States Circuit Court of Maryland. That Judge in a clear, clean-cut manner declares that all the schemes, including the "grandfather" clause and what not, are unconstitutional and void. The Judge in a nutshell says: "That the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States cannot be nullified or the Negro be disfranchised by 'grandfather' clauses, educational or property tests, and that the fifteenth amendment applies not only to congressional, but State and municipal elections as well." The case, we understand, is to be appealed through the United States Court. The colored people of Maryland, as well as ex-Attorney General Jerome Bonaparte, deserve great credit for their persistency in bringing this matter to a test. If persons wish to secure further information regarding the details of this decision, we feel quite sure that a letter addressed to Mr. Oliver Cummings, of Baltimore, will bring the information desired. A CHURCH WITHOUT A VOICE The loyal and intelligent membership of the A. M. E. Church is given to the boast that their church is the one really great organization of the Negro race. We go not so far, but it is no task to admit Bethel's power and its admirable working system. Nor is it too much to say that its leaders in the past have been men of vision, of character, of fine deeds and extreme race loyalty Henry M. Turner, of the living, would adorn any organization. With all these tributes, considerations and concessions, pray why is it that the A. M. E. Church can have no great organ, no strong weekly publication, no journal in keeping with its influence, its territory, the scholarship of its ministry and the influence the general body exercises upon present times? Why do the leaders allow the Christian Recorder to die away under such evil circumstances, becoming so much white paper meanly spattered with ink? Bethel once boasted not only that the Recorder was the oldest Negro newspaper, but in respect of the religious press, was the first Negro newspaper. So it was under Tanner and the late H T Johnson. But now it is sounding brass The Index for the Colored Methodists, the Southwestern Christian Advocate, a power in journalism for the Methodist Episcopal Church's colored membership, the militant Star of Zion the Union Review for the numberless Baptists, are each of them not only worthy denominal publications, but journals of general excellence and influence. Bethel seems to have no man in all its memb ership willing or able to undertake the tack of rehabilitating the Recorder, and it remains in the present perhaps willing but incompetent hands of an investigator, not an editor. The Board of Bishops should immediately divorce the business and editorial departments of the Recorder, giving the adding machine to Mr. Wright, and the pen to one of the church's intellectual and moral leaders, an editor who would not be afraid to speak out against unclean things, and would war against the highly-robed grafters. We might then hope for the old Recorder, its sweep of events and men, and its old powers against moral and social evils. ON LOUD TALKING. THE Age directs the especial attention of the pulpit and the people to the discouraging habit of colored men and women of loud talking in public places, in the streets and in the cars. The pulpit, we are sure, is not afraid to speak out against the rudeness of such conduct, nor fear to say plainly that loud talking and boisterousness, in many instances, explain why so many Negroes are objectionable in public resorts. THE Age is not seeking to close up everybody's mouth. We are simply anxious that the mouth that talks the most shall open at a less convenient angle in the future than in the past. Whispering is not at all times audible, and is sometimes exasperating, yet in public places it is more to be desired and more easily tolerated than the whoops and warcrys so common among us. In respect of these painful observations, there is too small a difference in the public conduct between the trained and the untrained, the educated and the uneducated Both talk out and both talk much; too much One women particularly ought to be very careful not only in the manner of speech but in the character of conversation. Unbecoming conduct in woman is pittable and very aggravating indeed. Too often one may tell, without turning the head, whether several women in a store, or a car, or in the streets, are white women or colored women "Lorch chile"—that is the pass word and the high sign, the jabbering that follows unmistakably identifies milady. Not only in respect of loud talking and smiling that may be heard a block ahead, or be hind, but in general demeanor, there is vast room for improvement, and heaven knows the time for it is upon us. There is no need for example, of getting blue in the face at every passenger on a street car simply because we are all riding in the same direction. Why enter a car looking like the soldiers who had been at war three days and three nights with the imps and to whom even thoughts were painful? Look up. Look pleasant. Show your "raising." and wherever you are, be courteous. Humility and courtesy are priceless treasures. We all may possess them. If you must laugh, don't alarm the city. If you must talk, don't imagine that everybody wants to hear why you didn't move to Harlem, or how you really despise your pastor, or what you said to the gas man, or what might be your opinion of Reno, the asylum of the rich and the unhappy Be a gentleman. Be a lady Neither term means loud noise or fancy dressing We may win by be behavior often where demands are unheeded Remember that from your conduct Time is writing the minutes of an entire race TREATMENT OF I. C. ASBURY No organization can live long, which is controlled by three such men as control the Odd Fellows, one of whom is a noted gambler, and one of the other two is a noted drunkard and libertine. If these three men think that Bishops, merchants, bankers, school teachers, honest farmers and church members are going to be led and guided many years longer by such disreputable characters as we have indicated, they will tool themselves woefully mistaken. It is a disgrace, not only to the old fellows organization, but the colored race of America, that honest, straight forward, unselfish men representing large interests in various directions should spend their time and money in attending a meeting such as was held at Baltimore simply to have their wishes disregarded and overruled by numerous drunkards, gamblers and libertines. Mr Asbury can well bide his time. The results within a few years will show that he was turned out, not because he was unworthy, but because he was worthy. Unfortunately for Mr Asbury, he is not a drunkard, he is not a gambler, he is not a libertine, and hence the party that got control temporarily of the organization in Baltimore by the use of the police and other underhanded and high handed methods seem for the present to have an advantage over Mr Asbury, but in the end he will be the winner 1 SAN FRANCISCO, NOV. NEW ORLEANS. The National Negro Business League adopted a resolution at its last annual session favoring the city of New Orleans as the seat of the Panama Exposition in 1915. The League meant well. The delegates from the Crescent City meant well, and talked well. Though victims of a certain amount of biting and undiscriminating proscription, yet were they true to New Orleans. All things being equal, as all things are not THE AGE would favor the city of New Orleans securing the celebration. But that city is as unfit to have so important and historic an undertaking as it could possibly be. Begging for the exposition, the local managers are, on the other hand, doing all in their power to convince broad-minded and thinking men that they have no business with it, nor would know what to do with it if they got it That not one of the progressive Negroes of New Orleans has been invited to join in with the committee in charge does not surprise us, though the Negroes of New Orleans, their classes and allies, constitute one-third of the population, and much of its intelligence. But we are not prepared for the back-handed insults shot at the race in editorial flashes and published correspondence to be found in the picture book called the Logical Point, the official organ of the management. Nor are we prepared to endorse the attitude of the New Orleans press towards the suggestion of the recent Baptist Convention that requested a suspension of the "Jim Crow" car law while the celebration lasted. That was a proper suggestion and might well have been a command New Orleans may be a great city, but it is a "Jim Crow" city, and "Jim Crow" men are in charge of the proposed Panama Exposition Panama is officered by colored men. Are they not too "inferior" to mingle with the elite and exclusive of New Orleans' cream and chalk at the exposition? The people of Panama do not want to be "invited" to New Orleans, as they would be on an occasion of such world wide importance. San Francisco has money New Orleans has no money San Francisco is a free city of a great State, rising majestically out of the ashes of the past, with magic swiftness New Orleans is a dead town of dead ideas and nations New Orleans is begging Congress for help The jewel of the Golden West asks for nothing save to be officially selected EDWARD E. LEE Fourteen years ago Richard Croker commissioned Edward E. Lee to begin the United Colored Democracy in the City of New York. Except a few uneventful years, since that day, Mr. Lee has been the leader of the colored Democrats. When he was not the titular leader, he was the spokesman for the rock-ribbed and unterfired of his creed and faith. He has always been a wise counsellor and a bold leader. He has always tempered loyalty with decency, and brought common sense to bear upon his activities. He has known the value of a right guard and warm supporter, and has relied upon men like Ralph Langston, chairman of the executive committee, to carry on the detailed work of his headquarters. In the recent upheaval Mr. Lee was far in front The present State and city Democratic organization, if it is anxious to recognize its colored supporters, will seek the advice of Mr Lee, and will admit him without hesitancy into its confidence. The courthus and disgrateful literature that was circulated through the State in the recent campaign in the name of colored Democrats, Mr Lee knew nothing of. He is too big a man for that kind of sewer politics. Since some colored men will join the Democratic party, against our wishes and advices, it is pleasant to know that they have an honorable man for leader Col Henry Lincoln Johnson, Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, was a very welcome visitor to our city last week. He came here to say a word in the interest of the Republican party and he said it well. He delivered one of the above speeches over in this city. Mr Johnson is a very able man and stands to-day as one of the leading men of the country. He is styled as the Hitchcock of the black race, as there are few appointments made without the approval of Col Johnson. This bit of delightful and treasured history was found in the Mountain Leader a publication of Charleston, W. V. S. Henry is the black Hitchcock, who is welcome to the tentiment, so as the appointments to it, it doubled in Henry knows set of the honors received to Mr Lewis and Mr Cottrell. The fact is the sinny Recorder is so busy holding on to his strap to watch those trying to hang on to another. Henry is fond of twice told tales if they tell of his political prowess. Why did Helleys sulk in his tent Maybe J. Van Vechten (Olbert) will tell us In the meantime, the Negro in the South have raised the biggest crop of 12 cent cotton on record "Jodie" Thompson the whitest Republican in the South, polled 25,000 votes as the Republican candidate for Governor of Alabama. That is, a record vote The Philadelphia Tribune informs us that Mr. Peabody, who gave the great Peabody Foundation for Southern education, was a Southerner. Is that so? If we were born in Massachusetts of New England parental. King George's coronation is down for June 22, 1811. The recent behavior of the people of King n-dden Europe makes us feel shaky for George. Mr. Roosevelt lost his election district. Mr. Taft's district gave Harding (Rep.) 189 and Harmon 169 Two years ago the Democrats carried the district. Postmaster General Hitchcock was up in the air the other day with two aviators. Hitchcock rather likes being up in the air. Will the esteemed editors of the Charleston News and Courrier and the Columbia State report on the whereabout of Johnnie Capers? Great surprise attended the announcement last week that the Democrats carried Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia The report remains unverified. Will Sam Hill, Henry Higgins, Joe Jones and Phil Dabney despatch us the true and sacred account of what really happened in, to and about Cincinnati? The Committee of Fourteen, if it continues to pursue colored business men, may find work enough to engage the brilliant qualities of W S Bennet and his man Whiting. There is talk of a concerted effort to keep Caleb Powers from taking his seat in the Congress. Railroads can catch up in revenue by running excursions to Washington on the main day of the contest. The fact is, as Rev M Ransom points out, Mr. Vernon had so many jobs, and there was so much money before him, that he got confused and couldn't tell which from other. Now there's no use in trying The Democrats of Louisville, Ky, flushed with a victory in which their Negro allies share, now propose to "Jim Crow" the colored people on the street cars. The last time there was a real contest on in Louisville, Marse Henry went to Europe We should like to chatise those recreative Republicans of the Fifteenth New York Congressional District who conspired against W. M Bennett, for they conspired also against a ready boast of Fisk University that it had a graduate in the Congress THE AGE extends sympathy to the Macon (Ga) Telegraph in the loss of the building and plant of that newspaper. The behavior of the New Orleans Times-Democrat in the discussion of the public question permits no words of genuine sympathy upon its recent similar loss. When the battle was hottest and the smoke thickest, where was J C Manning, the talking machine without a record of the propentyless, office-seeking, brass toed, shoe-wearing white men of Alabama? It is about time that "Joe" made his appearance in these parts to rant, roar and tiptoe for the circus loving mob of petitioners and protestors Now that John A. Dix is elected governor, we shall look forward to that Negro regiment of the National Guard, and an armory for it that will repay for all the unglorious defeats of former years. Where are the privates and the non commissioned officers? We know about the high officers, they are everywhere. The North Carolina Republicans made a miserable showing, notwithstanding the sun predicted high things of John Morehead and his leadership. We are listening for Thomas Settle, a one time idol of Tar Heel Republicans, to accuse the Negroes of having voted the Democratic ticket. Were they not driven out of the party organization? The various colored State fairs in all sections of the South reflect great credit upon the promoters of them, and are doing a fine work in showing the hands of the Negro, and what, in part, he is really contributing to the rehabilitation and progress of the South. Each Southern State should have annual colored State fairs. The poet of the recent political campaign was Job Hedges who sang of crowns of gold for the poor the preacher was Ezra Prentice, the Republican State chairman, who quoted that favorite verse of those distressed. When the Lord Lord He Christmasthe biographies was County Chairman Head Forum who gravely announced that the court was really a victory and offered biggers to prove his opinion. That was too much. The Oklahoma Negro is a typical Westerner. When the Democrat dupes and desperately fathered and fostered by Governor Haskell sought to disfriuchise the Negro on election day he threw the theses out and proceeded with an orderly election in which many men had a fair chance and a fair count. Titty No does not say that the Negro ought to go gunning for his rights when he has done his full duty, but we do say that the Oklahoma Negro is an interesting character. The New York Evening Post says that Herbert Parsons will get out of politics, now that he is defeated. Mr. Parsons complains that he has never been properly supported in his fight on Quigg. The And wonders whether the Post recalls that it was Lemuel Bill Quigg who placed Parsons at the head of the County Committee, the former Congressman and editor taking personal charge of the Parsons' interest on the floor of the committee. Why did Parsons turn on Quigg? Wherein is he so much higher or better than Quigg? We have had enough of politics and politicians to last not only two, but many years. Too much of politics is worse than not enough. Let us turn our hands to things less interesting maybe, but more profitable for a season. The two years that come between the agony of last week and the tribulations of 1912 let us use for planting and harvest time. The country is safe, and the ocean rolls on as creation's dawn beheld it Tariff or no tariff, we shall manage in some way to live, and the savings banks will pay interest as heretofore Cotton will grow in the South, and real estate is still on the market in the North Taft is President, and the Government at Washington still lives PROMINENT PEOPLE Daniel Murray, of the Library of Congress, Washington, is still working on his bibliography of the American Negro, Mr Murray's promised work ought to prove monumental, for he has devoted practically all of twenty years in its preparation John F. Bruce, the author journalist, announces that his recent book dealing with the lives and characters of famous black and colored men, all representative of the achievements of Ethiopia, has met a generous reception on all sides. It is Mr Bruce intention to publish another volume on this same subject within a few months Dr A H Kennebrew, who has just established an internary at Jacksonville, III, of which the local daily papers speak in praise, is a graduate of Tuskegee and Meharry Medical College. For some years following his graduation from Meharry he was resident physician at Tuskegee, and married Miss I. L. Chapman, who was at that time lady principal of the institute President Walter S. Buchanan, of the State College of Alabama, is not only one among the very young men who are college presidents, but he is one among the real progressive educators in the South. Mr Buchanan is doing much in the way of making the school a part of the life of the people, as well as an important center of education. He spends a great deal of his time in getting about among the common people, directly interesting himself in their progress. Succeeding N H Council in the presidency of this college, Mr Buchanan is proving himself worthy of the honor and the opportunity for more service. WASHINGTON IN CHARLOTTE The Afroco-Preshyterian (Negro) On last Friday evening, according to previous announcement, Dr. Booker T. Washington spoke in the Auditorium of our city. This was Dr. Washington's first appearance before a Charlotte audience. The large building was almost filled to its uttermost capacity. There were about three thousand people out to hear the distinguished speaker—a thousand of whom were white. The speech was characteristic. The colored people were urged and exhorted to prepare themselves for useful service, to be honest and faithful to every trust, to save money, start a bank account, live in the country and own a home, etc. The whites were reminded of the ways in which they could help the Negro. The things uttered by Dr. Washington were just the things that many of us hear every day—things that might be called commonplace but they appeared to be vitalized affrench by the personality of the man Mr. Washington grips the attention of his audience and carries it along with him with the greatest ease. In the last analysis his ability to do this is found in that mysterious something called personality. He is a great personality—the incarnation of genius. He knows how to please, and adroitly seeks to avoid giving any offense. This one fact perhaps accounts for his popularity and success in his difficult task among people who are not always in sympathy with him and his work. His presence and his speeches in North Carolina will do good. They will enlighten the colored people on many things and will give emphasis to many things that others are teaching and will strengthen the good feeling between the white and colored people. The Charlotte (N. C.) Observer (white) He spoke in platitudes but profoundly, simply but cognently humorously but apologizing and every word he uttered was as if by prophetic voice. Not a colored man heard him that was not enaptured, and not a white man that was not moved other than by seeing I go by the heart powers of the author. Dr. Washington, a war combination of a man. He is not working as a military leader but as a generals. He can stand his ground against the educational genius of the country in so far as education means liberal acquaintance with nature and its relentless laws. Dr. Washington spoke as a man speaking to men, not as the acknowledged peer of the people of his country. Solomon's word he uttered was more than two syllables. The profoundness of his argument was its simplicity, the grandeur of his thought was its naturalness, the keenness of his wit was its originality. The speech he delivered was a full example of the man behind the voice. It was a wonderful production in its conception and in the effect it produced upon the immense mass of people that thronged into the building. That Fool Cutting "Calny" There is nothing strange about South Carolina defying the United States Government. She is the only state known the result. Now Come John G. Capers defying the Government and setting up a white man's part. That is a great achievement, and those fellows are using in the Palmetto State the Florida Standard. By what tread logic, by what grand neglect. Wide as our nation, doth this relic last— This relic of old sterile customs past Long since into deep shame without respect?

In lofty mood I mount the recking box And travel through the land So Terence once Moved in old Rome. So - wondrous paradox— Moved Esop in old Greece, the dwarf and dune Then I reflect how their immortal life Makes the world laugh with mockery of it --Leslie Pinckney Hill in the Public NEWS AND COMMENT John Mitchell, Jr., the Richmond banker and editor, recently made a trip to the West to attend the white bankers' association Mr Mitchell doesn't associate with colored people in their organizations. He made many side trips and short stops en route, and his descriptive letters in the Planet are worth preserving. Last week he wrote of his excursion into old Mexico, and his return to El Paso. He says. "We decided to return to the United States and we hurriedly boarded a car for El Paso, taking a seat near the middle where we found one vacant. We had crossed the International Bridge and we were again at the office of the Custom officials. This time United States officers in the regular uniform of the United States Army inspected the bundles and cross questioned the passports during the time the firm purchased in Mexico. (One of them asked us, 'Are you an American citizen?' We answered in the affirmative. He passed on. "Another United States officer came. He asked, 'Are you an American citizen?' Yes, sir, was our reply 'Are you of Negro extraction?' Yes, sir. Then you will be required to take a seat in the rear. We moved our seat. As we sat there, the conductor approached us and in a kindly manner asked if we were a stranger. We told him we were 'I thought so,' he said. 'The law here separates the races.' We gave him the card reading, 'John Mitchell, Jr., president of the Mechanics' Savings Bank, Richmond, Va.' He read it with evident surprise and was amazed to know that he was a member of the American Bankers association. "We soon left the court proceeded to the Union Station. We were not in a very good humor. To think that we had protection in Mexico as an American citizen and that we lost that protection when we returned to the United States and that we had been accosted and embarrassed by an officer in the employ of the national government was galling to us to say the least" The American Missionary has performed a tremendous service for the United States since the foundation of it. Its usefulness has been confined to no one race or section, nevertheless, the chief pages in its history will always be devoted to its work in the redemption and education of the colored people of the United States. The story written in a faithful following after events since the early 80's would read like a romance of a bygone age. Fisk, Atlanta, Tougahoo, Talladega, Tilloston College, Straight University—each of these great schools was founded and nurtured by the A M A, against foes within and the without. Many of the pioneers still lay to bless mankind, Dr. Beard, Dr. Cooper and Dr Ryder have seen wonderful changes brought upon the continent. The need and importance of the only reliable literature dealing with the advancement of colored people, has been printed and distributed by the A M A. Not long ago Dr Ryder received from the Librarian of Congress an illuminated certificate and letter of acknowledgment in the name of the "library of Congress," thanking him for this literature. That means more than the surface indicates. That literature is bound to tell for good in future legislation. The late Jonathan P. Dolliver, of Iowa, United States Senator and a great debater, was a staunch and loyal friend to the Negro people. He believed in them, and in their possibilities as American citizens. He believed that they ought to be given not only political, economic and educational opportunities, but the hand of fellowship also, and the personal friendship of those who have power and place and can help them. Senator Dolliver was an oartor, a statesman, a leader and like Foraker in this also, a Christian. The following eulogistic remark by La Follette, as published in his magazine, will be read with pride by the readers of The Age. The third career, his star of destiny still in the Senate, Jonathan P. Dolliver was called by Senator Jonathan P. Dolliver was called in the hour of his country's need. It came at time when the cause of the people calls for the best leadership, the largest minds, the truest hearts. In Dolliver this cause had a powerful champion. His match Delilah were conscientized to the common good. The shadow of his assassination lay in home in the land. Delilah was cast in a rare mold. He had the stricken arm of the enemy. He was conscientized his commanding intellect by brilliant sequence his general satire his sensitive conscience his wholesome morals. A prodigious worker a master delilah a courageous fighter he was best in himself in the present struggle for political justice. Intelllectually honest and instinctively democratic he was battled against the dishonest modernistic exploiters of the people in the tumultuous public domain. When he battled his enemies into the very strength of the system he made the state better and hearing him went to be consumed. He courageous penetrated the disgrace throw of and big business statesman that made the old leaders tremble. Yet Delilah held no grudges. He harbored no animosities. His political course was steered by principle not by perverse hate. He was deeply respected by his opponents he was loved as men are seldom loved by his associates and friends. A great leader a splendid statement men are great. But the impress he has left on the thought and Aspirations of mankind undelible. Delilah is dead. But the soul of him lives in people's hearts wherever men are striving for freedom. physical nature is still. But the sense that spoke through it is the solitary brotherhood and righteousness, and enduring." THE NEGRO PRESS Say It Over Again. Afro-Americans who are in business and have no time to visit Afro-American churches, nor any interest in them should not be surprised if the members have no time nor any interest in their business.—The Cadiz (Ky.) Informer. Texas Has a Brand of Her Own. It has been proven in many instances that the Negroes are not as loyal to their race as other races are and in fact there is a class that does not feel the necessity of Negro enterprises. There is a class of Negroes here who think they are too good to associate with their race, other than when they are forced to do so. In order to assist port their families. They are often fighting or condemning their race, trying to gain popularity with the white race. these kind of people are detrimental to the Negro race. They think they are too white to belong to the Negro race in reality in the South, but black to be identified with white race. Persons of such disposition have often remarked that a Negro undertaker was too black to handle the dead bodies of their relatives and always discourage and avoid Negro enterprises." The San Antonio Inquirer Look This Way, Mr President. Others think Mr Taft is at his determined to keep faith with the Negroes. He now off the Hitchcock coke. Now on they say there will be more consideration shown to the black workers of the party and some high office handed out to them. Meanwhile it is openly acknowledged that at some point the promise will come to the Southern Negroes, certainly no prominent officer in the South. What encouragement is it to the great mass of the race who live in the South and why should his citizenship not be recognized, here? Not only Mr Taft and the Republic can party but all other persons in parties should consider, since the Negro is the defended by the Negro, since he is expected succeed best here, then here his right to citizenship must be established the end. At least something should be encouraged to encourage him - The Star of Zion Not Less But More. Elder. Little less horrible and vicious is the man, who by well studied speeches and editorials, appeals to race-prejudice and race hatred, in his endeavors to army one class of citizens against another than is the incendiary the applies the torch, or the lyncher the knot. Most Americans suffer from the ignorant and self-politician, and the yellow journal conducts their campaign of passions and prejudice, exciting the feelings of the ignorant and leaving them to brow over imaginary fills in their minds. In fact, lawlessness and bloodshed. The unfavorable segment which is being moulded against the Negro in certain sections and more or less degree in all sections that matter, seems to be the well plan on the part of designers and indulges against him. In this crisis it lays to the Negro, first, to so conduct self as to refute by actual life the charges spread against him.

F London, Eng. Nov. 6.—Pastor Russell of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, New York, preached here today. Royal Albert Hall held a vast audience of deeply in- terested hearers. The speaker chose his text from Revelation xx, 11:— "I saw a great White Throne, and PASTOR RUSSELL. "I saw a great White Throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and there was found no place for them." He said: Shin made moral cowards of our race from early infancy fear and apprehension, especially in respect to things future, have been impressed upon us. We realize our imperfection, and that our God is perfect, and that perfection is the only standard which he could approve, and that some kind of punishment for all must be expected. The Adversary, taking advantage of our forefathers, misrepresented the Almighty and has used our fears to alienate us from him and to wrest and distort his message to us in the Bible St. Paul assures us that this is Satan's general procedure; that he puts light for darkness and darkness for light. Thus it comes that our text, which is really one of the most beautiful and comforting in the whole Bible when rightly understood, has to many become a tash in the hands of their fears. It is needless to say that our text is one of the symbols of a Book filled with symbols. God's people, guided by his holy Spirit, in due time will appreciate these symbols. For many of them the due time is already here. The Throne is Messiah's. It represents his Mediatorial Dominion of earth for a thousand years. Its whiteness symbolizes the purity, the justice, of his Kingdom of righteousness under the whole heavens. The heavens and earth which will flee away from the presence of the great Emmanuel will not be the heavens of God's Throne, nor the earth which he has given to the children of men. The heavens and earth which will flee away, and for which no place will be found, are, of course, the symbolical ones. In Bible symbolology the earth represents established civilization; the sea represents the restless, disatisfied masses of humanity. The mountains symbolize human governments, kingdoms, which constitute the backbone of present spiritual influence.—Ecclesiasticalism, Churchianity. Thus interpreted our next declares that when Messiah shall assume control of the world; when he shall sit upon his Throne; when he shall exercise rulership amongst men, the result will be that the social system of today, as well as the present day ecclesiasticalism, will flee away, will pass out of existence—no place will be found for them. Satan Now the Prince. Some man may be inclined to ask. Has not Christ been the great Ruler of the world for these past nineteen centuries? And whatever may be said of the four thousand years before the coming of Christ may it not be claimed that he has been reigning ever since his ascension to the right hand of the Father? We answer that if this be true; if the Redeemer of men has been reigning as the King of earth for these nineteen centuries, there should be something in the Bible to so teach But we find nothing. On the contrary, we hearken to the Master's own words telling us that Satan is the Prince of this age (John xiv, 30). We hearken to him again telling us, "My Kingdom is not of this world age" (John xvii, 30). Again he says, "I will come again and receive you unto myself" (John xiv, 3). Again he tells us that he went into a far country to receive the title to his Kingdom, then to return to take possession of it (Matthew xxi, 33, xvii, 14), and that at his second coming he will be the great King of glory. He tells us the same thing in Matthew xvii, "When the Son of Man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall be sit upon the throne of his glory." On the other hand, as we scan the pages of history during the past eight cenuries, we are convinced that Messiah has not been the King of the world. To think of him as such with the omnipotent power which we are credit to him would be to charge him with responsibilities, the nobility and atrocious persuasions and wars and famines and positions. Surely no right-minded person after nature consideration, can rathethic accept the theory that the glorious Messiah's reign of righteousness for the blessing of the whole earth the upbringing of the whole race, the enlightenment of every creature and the bringing of all possible into accord with God, so we could think that that reign of the great Mediator between God and men is in the past. We must agree with our text that it is in the future and that, when established its effect upon the institutions of the present political social, financial, religious will be such that they will flee away in place ever more will be found for them. Ab' from this standpoint there is hope, but from no other standpoint. We are living today at the very end of civilization. Yet today we be told more clearly than ever before that the deeply-ingrained selfabness ADVERTISE IN THE AGE Masters of Major Arts in the Masters and convenience and advantages of our day. The Curse of Selfishness. I need not do more than remind you that selfishness is to be found in every one of us, and that a combination of righteousness is insisted upon by us all and adhered to, and violators of it are styled criminals. Nevertheless it seems impossible to legislate equity, justice. The keen intellects of men find opportunities for circumventing the laws and for committing theft and murder and sin in the face of laws and without danger of being punished. Let us illustrate this: We have heard of the famines of India and how the British Government has spent millions of "Pounds Sterling" for irrigation purposes to compensate for irregularities in the rain-fall. Undoubtedly the famines are to some extent due to water scarcity. Nevertheless, one of the albeit of our engineers informs the world that there has not been in fifty years such a scarcity as should have created the famines. The famines of India, which have cost the lives of millions, are to be accredited to greed—selfishness which has flourished under the shadow of the law. Wealthy milling concerns purchase the rice from the natives and grind it into flour. By agreement between themselves they do not compete, but press the market price of rice lower and lower until the poor native, unable to make a profit, declines to plant, care for and harvest the crop. As a result there is famine. The poor natives suffer, but the managers of the milling properties pay large dividends of from fifty to one hundred and fifty per cent. on invested capital to the wealthy owning them. As an illustration of the exorbitant profits I will relate a case: Two young men whose accumulated savings amounted to thirty thousand rupees (about two thousand pounds, or ten thousand dollars) invested it in rice milling. Their profits for the first year were eighty thousand rupees—about five thousand pounds, or twenty-five thousand dollars. They were not in the combine to depress the price of rice, but they profited by what the combine accomplished. These inequities of our present social order are beyond the reach and correction of the comparatively few men of ability not directly or indirectly interested in them. The White Throne Judgment Neither Jebovah nor his great Representative, Messiah, can in any sense or degree be a party to injustice or inequity. The fact that injustice has been permitted, and that inequity has been the rule for centuries, is to be accounted for by the other fact that during all this period the world has been under the reign of sin and death, and not under the reign of righteousness and life; it has been under the reign of Satan, "the Prince of this world" and of the darkness of selfishness and evil—all of which his name represents—and not under the dominion of Messiah, the Representative of Jebovah, and his righteousness. not under the King of glory, the antitypical David and Solomon, the antitypical Aaron and Melchisedec. The New Dispensation which Messiah's Kingdom will usher in is pictured in our text. It will be the dominion that will be world wide—pure, holy, righteous, just, truthful, God-like—a great White Throne. No wonder we read that the symbolical heavens and earth, representing the old order of things—social, ecclesiastical—will all vanish away. But let no one think for a moment that ecclesiastical princes, financial princes and political princes will voluntarily acknowledge that the hour has come for a full surrender to Messiah and to all the principles of his abolute righteousness. On the contrary, these privileged members of our race will more and more be drawn together for mutual protection--for the preservation of the special privileges which have come into their possession. Even now we see the prophecy of the Second Psalm fulfilling. We are in the very time when the Lord, through the Prophet David, calls the great ones of the earth to recognize the true situation of our wonderful day--that it means that the Day of Messiah has arrived, and that he should be recognized and his principles of righteousness obeyed. The call is recognized, Satute the Son, O ye kings of the earth, while ye are in the way with him, before his anger be kindled and ye perish by the way (Psalms 11, 10-12). But no, the prophecy declares that we are in the day when the people, the masses, will have foolish imaginations—when they will think that by their own strength they can inaugurate a reign of right compassion along the lines of Socialism or by amurity. The people must learn that their help is in the Lord and not in their own frall arm. The people must see the force of the statement. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Messiah (verse 12). The Lord is about to establish the great White Throne of absolute justice in the world. On the other hand the money kings and earthly rulers and ecclesiastical princes are taking counsel together to day for the preservation of the present inequities of the world, by which they are profiting. The Lord declares that in this they are handling themselves against him and against the newly appointed King Messalah. For over a century human liberty has been making progress in spite of every endowment or to restrain it. The potentates of earth perceive the raling tide of human intelligence and demands for equal rights. They perceive that unless something be done to counteract this general movement the special privileges of the privileged classes will disappear. They are even now. Correspondence that is sent to this office written on both sides of the paper will not be printed.-Ed. straint, which the people are patrolling upon them, may be broken and a reign of autocracy—political, financial and religious—be re-inaugurated; a reign such as prevailed centuries ago, but now upon a higher plane, controlled by brighter wits, holding under restraint more intelligent masses. "Be Instructed. Ye Judges!" Would that the cultured and influential princes of earth could take the proper view of the situation and realize the fallacy of their counsels, the impossibility of averting the great changes which are upon us by reason of the time having come for Messiah to take unto himself his great power and reign! Hearken to the Lord's words through the Prophet. "Be wise, now, therefore, O ye kings! Be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear and rejoice with trembling. Do homage to the Son" (vs 10-12). Could the wise of earth realize the situation and fully submit themselves to the Divine requirements of absolute justice and truth, what a blessing it would be to the world! If these princes would turn their attention from the grasping of power and money to the enlightenment and uplifting of the people they would become ministers, servants, of the New Dispensation, which would be ushered in with rejoicing. But the Lord informs us that this will not be the case and that, as a result, Messiah's Kingdom will be ushered in by "a time of trouble such as was not since there was a nation" (Daniel xil, 1). The Psalmist tells us the same—God will have in derision the puny efforts of the worldly-wise and great to re-establish autocracy. He will speak to them in his wrath the lesson which they refuse to hear by loving exhortation. The new King and his Empire will be established in the earth, and the declaration is that amidst such Divine displeasure he shall "break them with a rod of iron and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel" (Psalm ii, 4-9; Revelation ii, 27) Small and Great to Be Judged. God is no respecter of persons. Hence, before his Judgment Throne punishments will be meted out to the little, as well as to the great, when found to be violators of the principles of justice. Would that I could impress this upon many of the lower classes who are crying out against the injustices in high places while practicing similar injustices themselves. Let it be remembered also that that the great White Throne speaks blessings, Divine favor and uplifting to all who love righteousness and hate iniquity—the little and the great. If in the past a certain retributive justice has seemed to proceed along national lines, blessing the nations which take the more righteous course, and frowning upon those which take the more evil course, this will no longer be the case in the not distant future. The testing imposed by Mee siah's Kingdom will be along individual lines. He that eats the sour grapse of sin will find his teeth on edge, and his alone. "Justice will be laid to the line and righteousness to the plummet," and all the refuges of lies, by which mankind in high places have sought to fool themselves and others will be swept away. The hidden things of darkness will be brought to light and the glorious things of light will be everywhere recognized. Ultimately "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess" to the enthroned Messiah "The Boeks Will Be Opened." "The Books Will Be Open." The Master said. "My Word shall judge you in the last day." Happy has it been for the comparatively few who have heard the Master's Word in this present life and have judged themselves thereby, and submitted themselves to his righteous precepts. These blessed ones will share with Messiah, the gorites of his Spiritual Empire, invisible to men. But during the Thousand-Year Judgment Day of the world (II Peter ill. 7, 8) the same words—the "wonderful words of life" to those who will obey, and words of death to those who will refuse obedience—will be the standards of Justice for all mankind. The books then to be opened to all will include not only the words of the Master and of the Apostles of the New Testament but also the Divine message through the Prophets of old. Then all shall see the oneness and harmony of the Divine message of righteousness. According to those standards each who would have eternal life must conform his living and his thinking. The approved at the end of Messiah's reign, will be delivered over to the Father perfect as human beings. The disapproved will be destroyed in the Second Death—without hope (II Peter ill. 12; Jude 12, Acts ill. 23). Another book of life will be opened another besides the one that is now open which is styled the Lamb's Book of Life and in which is written the names of his faithful followers of the present time "members of his Body" "the Royal Priesthood" the Reide the Lamb's Wife. The new book of life will be for those who will be on trial during Messiah's reign. By its close it will include all of Adam's race found worthy of eternal life. The judgment of the Church in the present time is not according to works the perfection of which under present conditions would be impossible. Hence the Church's judgment is according to faith and the obedience of faith possible. But the world's judgment will be according to works for the knowledge then will be so great that faith will no longer be at a premium. The great Mediator will accept of imperfect works according to the abilities of the people but as they rise out of degradation more and more will be required of them until in the end they will be perfected and absolute perfection of works will be required.

June 26-lys BOSTON, MASS The national conversations of the two years of the general conferences of the Methodist Episcopal A. M. R. and A. M. R. E. Union have been a political importance to both church and State. As in each State context now an annual contest in 1012 so in religious cases every act of the churches named will have a point toward their respective general conferences. It is idle talk to say that politics in some form does not enter the councils of the church. The bishopric down is elective, and naturally more than one man will seek the position. He may be a priest, or the old one, known as the "Old Guard," will take active form in the councils of the A. M. B. Zion Church, about which your parish is richest, is not ours to express just now. The term "Trenchmen," meaning the men in the pastorate, has been the slogan cry in recent years, nearly with the term "Progressive" in political discussion at the present time. The work of the A. M. E. Zion Church presents time, so that it would appear from the actual progress of the church the result of progressive leadership, unintentionally perfected an organization. No alignments distinctly drawn as yet can be seen, and if none are drawn, whole Zion Church will set down "Progressive," a "consumption devotion wished." The Rev. M. L. Harvey of Newburg, N.

TO CLOSE IT once more becomes my duty to use the Howard Theatre, Washington, D.C., as a theme for discussion. This time it is my mission to herald the news that after Saturday evening, November 19, the Howard Stock Company will be referred to in the past tense, for on that date the organization will bid farewell to the theatregoers of the Capital City. To write an obituary of any business proposition in which members of the race are vitally interested is no pleasant task. I would much prefer to announce the birth of a colored enterprise, for then an opportunity is given to paint pretty pictures of what is to be—you can pose as an optimist, and yet, while the demise of the Howard Stock Company might be considered palamitous by many, some solace can be found because the experiment has taught a highly instructive lesson. Management Has a Case of "Cold Feet." It is reported that the management has become afflicted with an aggravated case of "cold feet," and a few days ago decided to cease doing business with colored Thespians forever and anon. It is said that the Howard Theatre will be re-named, that white shows will be produced, and that the house manager and the treasurer will be white. Furthermore, the white gentlemen from Baltimore more have expended thousands of dollars in their strenuous endeavor to furnish the colored residents of the District of Columbia with an up-to-date theatre, claim that they have formed one opinion which is deep-rooted in their minds—that it is folly to try to educate the colored people to their way of thinking. At no stage of the game have these promoters shown evidences of being practical showmen. Had they been better versed in the剧院s they would not have tried to educate the people to their way of thinking, but would have studied the tastes of the playgoers and catered to them. Oscar Hammerstein, the well-known impresario, oftimes spends thousands of dollars in an attempt to educate the people in grand opera, and usually at a loss, so why should the owners of the Howard Theatre adopt such an unprofitable course? Washington a Good Theatre Town. I may be wrong in my surmises, but I sincerely believe that the colored residents of Washington will enthusiastically support colored amusement propositions and that the Capital City is one of the best cities in the country for the successful operation of a colored theatre When the Howard Theatre opened some months ago the management was worried against the shoals and breakers, whom inexperienced pilot is likely to encounter on the theatrical seas, but no particular heed did they take, and after three months' of tempestuous sailing they now carry with them memories of experiences none too pleasant and none too productive financially. From an authoritative source it is learned that the Howard Theatre has enjoyed but one heyday week in the box office and that was when the Smart Set played in Washington during the month of September. On that occasion the house was crowded at each performance and the management went through the unusual experience of depositing a meat sum of money in the bank the following week after all expenses had been paid. Since that time the promoters have found it necessary to do business with the paying teller instead of the receiving teller. Why the Smart Set Did a Big Business The week after the Smart Set Company had played the Howard Theatre to capacity business, I received a letter from a resident of Washington asking me to kindly explain, if possible, why the Dudley organization had done a big business and yet on the following Monday only a handful of people attended the vaudeville entertainment. In my answer to the Washingtonian I stated that to me the cause for the difference in attendance was obvious and did not require much mental activity to solve the so-called problem, that standing room was at a premium when the Smart Set Company played a week - engagement in the District of Columbia because the kind of entertainment the people wanted was being offered, while no effort was made a week later to furnish the proper sort of amusement. The bill was mediocre, occasioned but little interest, and attracted a mediocre attendance. Management Has Been Cheap If the Smart Set Company and other colored shows of merit went to Washington and failed to get the support of the colored residents then I would say that the Capital City was a bad show town and that the people were poor theatroggers, but this imputation cannot be made, in view of past history True, "His Honor, the Barber," could not be produced each week, but in view of the fact that there are many colored performers out of steady employment since the closing of the big shows much care could have been pursued in the selection of talent, etc. After erecting a beautiful playhouse costing about $90,000, the management decided to spend but a nominal sum weekly for talent, thereby insuring the patrons of a vaudeville bill of corresponding merit. The same policy was [Portrait of a man with a hat and a woman with a flower in her hair, standing in front of a building with a large window and a chimney. The building has a sign that reads "The Old Library."] adhered to in conducting the stock company. The managers emphatically refused to open wide their purse, believing that they could protect their $90,000 investment by sending a couple of thousand dollars after it. One of the principal reasons the Howard Theatre has not been a success to date is because the house has been run too cheaply. Too much money was expended in erecting the theatre and not enough put into circulation in securing talent. Let all promoters interested in colored theatricals profit by the experience of the owners of the Howard Theatre.

"HOBBLES" INFLUENCE DANCING From London comes the information that the dancing authorities on the other side have predicted a great change in the dancing of this season. Not only have the moving times much to do with the change, but the fashions also will, to a great extent, taboo certain dances, including those so popular with the late King Edward, who delighted to watch the dancing' along in deux temps. The German dancers in the hippies are now being substituted for the Edwardian figures. The general effect of the waltz will be calm and slow, to admit of the smaller steps of the ladies, necessitated by the narrower skirts in fashion. Still although square dances 1 are becoming rapidly more and more unpopular, there is still to be seen the lancers at some of the select private dances. In this dance, according to certain debutantes, during the third set comes the "lights," and the "old genteel twildies" have been literally "set to corners." One of the still popular dances is the waltz introduced by "The Merry Widow." The dancers break off in the waltz and take hands, only to go yet apart again, and do pretty little steps on your own in a corner, or maybe not in a corner. Certain gliding dances are also coming into favor, but very slowly. It is expected, however, that the modern ways of dancing the dances of the eight ties will be in full swing by the time the Coronation season will have arrived. Among the revivals will be the old English Morris dances and singing games together with the musical drillrilles. "THE ART OF DANCING" In a book just published by Dr Luther H Gulick on "The Art of Dancing," the writer advocates folk dances as conducive to physical and moral health. In discussing the book the New York Times says. "The Healthful Art of Dancing" deals as much with art as with health, and, more than either, with the fulness of life of which both are the servants Folk dancing, especially in its usefulness for public school children—dancing, not as a spectacle, but as a means of healthful recreation, of self-development and expression—is studied from the point of view of the American educator, of the metropolitan, the cosmopolitan. He sees all the riches of the world, sunshine and tradition and mellow nationality, crowded pell-mell into our narrow streets and dark houses, all our manifold heritage in danger of being lost, because it is more than we can hold. "We possess less of the folk music folk-dances, folk-games, folk-festivals of the world than do any of the peoples of which we are made." We are also in danger of creating a new generation, shallow and ill educated, which will despise its parents, which will sacrifice moral and physical health to mental shrewdness, which will be starved of joy and beauty and graciousness. Folk-dances "constitute a real tie between the old and the new." Their advantages for public school use over all other forms of exercise are that more children can be handled in a smaller space, most of the dances necessitate more vigorous exercise of all the muscles, and (last but not least) the children love them. And, notwithstanding severer school-masters, love and delight are the greatest educators. Many folk dances are excluded from the public school classes, but technical, physical, or moral reasons especially those dances which are for show rather than for social pleasure, or which accentuate the individual above the group. Dr. Guhik believes in these dances more particularly for girls in place of athletics, and his reasons for this sex orientation of play are sound and convincing. The work has been carried on in New York for five years by the Girls' Branch at the Public Schools Athletic League and it has proved abundantly successful. Besides much information and a valuable appendix and bibliography the book contains over sixty illustrations from photographs. But more interesting than all these Dr. Gulick's general view of the art and its relation to life his philosophy of art "Dancing" he says, "is not only the most universal of the arts but the mother of all art. Rhythm and tapping rhythm learned from the tales of the sea itself, in the old days when our first teachers had died and according to the measure of life. Art is the essence of life the illustration the impression of experience. It is the way of life the play of the world that which makes us children of the spirit." IN THE WORLD OF SPORT Howard Outclasses Shaw Howard took another step toward the colored football championship by decisively defeating Shaw University at Raleigh last Friday by the score 21-10 to the largest score on record against her. The first touchdown was made three minutes after play had begun. Shaw kicked to Howards 10 yard line, the ball was brought back twenty yards by Captain Allen. Bruce then advanced it about 45 yards on a quarterback run and Grav rushed it over for a touchdown, giving a fine exhibition of open field dodging. The game was won by straight football, varied by straight bucks, cross bucks and end runs. Brice, who played quarterback for Howard, played a remarkable game. He was under kicks like lightning and his tackling was hard and sure, he was especially fine on running back punts, paving a way for the first touchdown by his open field running. The formidable backfield worked like a well-perfected machine. Leroy was credited with three touchdowns. He played a more aggressive game ploughing through Shaw's line, but were poor. Leroy took the former Amherst star played a good game for Howard getting more than his share of tackles and gaining continually through the line and skirting Shaw's ends for long gains. Slaughter played a fine game at left end. Smith and Durham made frequent tackles and were with every play. Chelland and Bell played a steady game throughout. Substitutions Made In the latter part of the game many institution were made. Hunt went in to relieve Lerry. Nixon to release Allen and Howard relieved Gray. Stratton Coppage and Carmichael also went in to play of the game and as satisfied with Marshall, Sam Jones, upon whom Shaw based all their hopes, failed to "come back." For the Latest Theatrical News Read The New York Age. The consistent playing of Captain Check of Shaw was especially notice- able. The line-up: (Hunt) Howard. Positions. Shaw. Tysen. R F Thomas.

Lincoln, 6; Hampton, 5. Last Friday before a great crowd composed of students and people of the surrounding towns, Lincoln defeated Hampton 0.5 in one of the hardest and roughest games ever played at Hampton. The Lincoln boys were outweighed by many pounds, Hampton having the heaviest team in all her existence Hampton's touchdown was made in the third period from a punt which fell short and was recovered by Holmes, Hampton's end, who ran for a touchdown Lincoln's touchdown was made in the first few minutes of the second period by big Bullock, Morris kicking goal. The game on the whole was hard fought from the start, but Lincoln seemed to be in better condition and always held the Virginia boys, though Hampton outpunted Lincoln Stars for Hampton, Holmes, Wolfe, Scott and Nicholson, for Lincoln, Walker, big Bullock Hawes, Redd and Dunn Tuskegee, 6; Montgomery State Nor mal, 0. Tuskegee, Nov 14. In a clean game of very exciting football hero Saturday afternoon, Tuskegee Institute defeated Montgomery State Normal by a score of 6 to 0. With a much heavier team Montgomery played an aggressive game, but Tuskegee excelled the visitors in forward passes and in kicking and recovering the ball. It was Tuskegee first victory. Playing her first game from home, she was defeated by Metharty in Nashville, November 5, by a score of 6.0, and she tied in score with Talladega on November 7 in Birmingham. The team leaves on November 15 for a Thanksgiving trip, playing Atlanta Baptist College at Atlanta on November 16 and Hampton Institute at Hampton on Thanksgiving morning. Society to Attend Howard-Lincoln Game. On Thanksgiving Day Howard and Lincoln will meet at Lincoln in their annual football game for supremacy. There is always a battle royal when these two teams come together, and a red hot contest is expected. Both teams have been playing an aggressive game this season. The occasion will also be quite a society event, and New York, Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore will be well represented. Howard will go to Lincoln on a special train, accompanied by about twelve hundred rooters from the capital city. The representation from New York and Philadelphia will also be large Howard Plays Hampton. Next Saturday, on Howard Field, the HawardVarsity meets Hampton Institute. The recent victories of the How- ward team give the students great truth in the team. They are already producing another victory. This will be the largest game of the season played at Howard Field. Howard defeated thepton last year This Season's Colored Football Stars This Season's Colored Football Stars. The Spring old (Miss) High School football team practically ended its season Saturday with unmatched glory. Not only is it the champion team of Western Michigan, but it has the untold record of not being scored on this season. A tortight ago it developed its most formidable neighbor, the New Britain Connecticut team with a score of 6 to 0 Saturday the Hollyoak team the local up river rivals, were put to the most shamefully with a score of 53 to 0. The team of 10 is conceded to be the best that has been produced for six years. The three colored boys of the team have been easily the star players throughout the year. They are Howard Drew, right halt back, Johnson, left halt back, and Burton Smith, right tackle. On account of the real excellent work of these three colored football stars they are the heroes of the Springfield High School. At Amherst College the race has a football representative of a larger magnitude in the person of John Pinkett, the most efficient center that Amherst College has had since the memorable days of W H Lewis The work of Pinkett against the Harvard team this year is known to have saved Amherst from being scored on but for a small score. In Sunday's game with William College, which is Amherst's mighty more when it comes to their annual game, test Pinkett, team came out victor with a score of 11-0. Pinkett is considered to be one of the logical candidates for the all American center this year. Form League The evening last week a large number of teachers of the colored public schools of Washington, D.C., met in the assembly hall of the M Street High School and organized an athletic league which will include the students attending the high and graded schools of the city. It will be the aim of the league to encourage inter-school athletics. The object of the league will be to develop all the boys of the schools in a healthy way and not to overdevelop a picked few, as is often the case where inter-school contests receive most attention. Each school will have a league of its own contributing however to the division to which it belongs, player to take part in games of the division league. In turn this league will have teams which will form another league, representing the entire colored student body of the District.

COMPANY, 1931 Broadway, New York PARENTS, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EYES OF YOUR CHILDREN. Do you know that statistics show that over 60,000 children in the Public Schools of Greater New York have defective vision — a serious handicap in life's race? Your child may be one of those little victims with defective eyesight. Don't neglect the eyes of your children if they are defective, for the sake of a few dollars! It is criminal neglect to refuse them protection from eyestrain, headaches and nervousness, when immediate and timely attention may save your child much misery and yourself future regret. Many a so-called "dull scholar" is so, because of some defect of the eyes. If they complain that their eyes feel tired and painful and can't see the writings on the blackboard readily, bring them to me and I will tell you the exact condition of their eye—whether they need glasses or not. All children's eyes should be examined. Scientific examination of the eyes for defective eyesight is my specialty. Dr. R. G.
