Leading Negro Newspaper VOL. XXIV. No. 8 DR. ERNEST LYON RETURNS HOME Ex-United States Minister to Liberia Tells of Present Conditions REPUBLIC'S OUTLOOK Believes That National Debt Will Be Refunded and Liberia Will Rehabilitate Itself EXPENSES TO INCREASE Many New Positions to be Created—American Capital Needed—Very Little Freedom on Western Coast. Dr Ernest Lyon, ex United States Minister to Liberia, is back in the United States, having arrived on the Cunard steamer Carmania Sunday. Dr Lyon, who spent two weeks in London night-seeing, returns to the United States optimistic as to the future of Liberia and speaks highly of the citizens of the little republic and the great light they are making for independence. While in London he was entertained by Dr Faulkner, who is abroad in the interest of ratifying an agreement between France, Great Britain and the United States for the refunding of the Liberan national debt. When Dr Lyon left London every indication pointed to the complete success of the negotiations. "Governmental affairs are practically at a standstill in Liberia because every one is awaiting the outcome of the concessions being held by representatives of the three powers relative to jointly joining the republic's debt," declared Lyon to a representative of THE. "Nothing of importance is being depending the consummation of the "I do not hesitate to state that unless the American Government goes further than refunding the Liberian debt the country will not be much better off. It will also be necessary for the investment of American capital in developing the resources of the country. If this is not done the country will not profit a great deal for the reason that it will cost Liberia more money than at present to run the government after the debt has been refunded. Many New Positions to Be Established. "If the loan is made it will necessitate the establishment of four new government positions which will be a large expense. First, there will have to be a general receiver, who will evidently be a representative of the United States. His salary will probably be several thousand dollars a year, then there will be three assistant receivers who will represent the other powers. An agricultural expert will have to be appointed also. The salaries drawn by these officials will be quite a drain on the treasury of Liberia. "Then there is another aspect—the reorganization of the trumpet force. It is the plan of the government to keep on duty a trained force of from three hundred to five hundred soldiers which will be as efficient as those who were used by the British and French colonies. There no doubt in my mind that under the direction of Lieut Davis the soldiers will be a credit to Liberia. "The failure of the United States Senate to endorse the plan of Secretary of State Knox for the United States to assume the entire debt of Liberia without the help of the other powers has given the enemies of Liberia an opportunity to try and show that the United States did not want to aid Liberia. However, these arguments have not been given much serious consideration." There has been a great deal of talk about America establishing a protectorate over Liberia, but the European powers do not believe in such rumors, it being well known that the experts are circulated for political purposes in part of some of the powers asserted." "Should Liberia become a successful rebellion it would mean the exodus of a large number of intelligent people from these colonies. The result would be a republic in Liberia, but the mass movement would be the answer." There is very little trouble in term coast of Africa outside in the sense that we now stand the term. The Arctic is regarded as an island of dangerous element because governing the coast is with arctic Negro we demand he use the chance offered to great but in many of the the west coast of Africa new Europeans be the who lift there is no place in the Negro but Liberia there are at present a whack but there are but few what there are not. What only to-day is new blood of a that class of men with minor look. To this class of men the many advantages, and any that abide who aspires to add the civilized population of successfully do go. The New York Age DR. ERNEST LYON Ex-United States Minister to Liberia "There is one piece of advice I want to give to those who are ambitious to go to Liberia, and that is, do not become a citizen of that country for the express purpose of entering politics. Find employment in another direction and it will pay you better in the end." Dr Lyon will be a visitor in New York until Saturday, when he leaves for his home in Baltimore. He will be banqueted by friends in New York City Friday evening. Owing to his knowledge of the Liberian situation and the high esteem in which he is held by the heads of the government of the little republic, he will probably be called to Washington at a near date and discuss the affairs of Liberia with the State Department. SPEAKS TO WHITE AUDIENCE Rev. William N. DeBerry Discusses Race Problem at Park Congregational Church—Races Must Show More Intelligence. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Springfield, Mass., Nov. 22—Rev William N. DeBerry, pastor of St. John's Congregational Church, spoke on the race problem in Park Congregational Church, where he preached Sunday morning in exchange with the pastor, Rev. John Luther Kilbon. He announced that in his opinion segregation is at present the only feasible method of dealing with the Negroes and white people in those parts of the country where each race is represented in large numbers. This was a significant utterance, coming from an educated Negro who has made the problem of his own race the subject for much study and first-hand investigation. Rev DeBerry took as his text Genesis xx, 8 and 9, "And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen, for we be brethren. Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me, if thou wilt take the left hand, and I will go to the right, or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left." Rev DeBerry said that the present condition of the white and the black races in the South is similar to that of Abram and Lot, who had lived together in peace until "their substance was great so that they could not dwell together." There are, he said, two principal causes from which the strife between the two races now springs. They are the degraded and criminal class of the Negroes, who have grown in crime in proportion as they had advanced in civilization in the same ratio as all races, white or black, and the other cause is at the other extreme, the progressive educated Negroes, whose success, both material and cultural, arouses the jealousy and hatred of a poor class of white people who desire to keep the Negro down always. The time has come, said Rev DeBerry, for the races to separate, the social gap between them is constantly widening, and they meet now successfully only in business transactions. The Negroes have no objection to the Jim Crow laws, said the speaker, provided the Jim Crow class of the white race is also included within the provisions. It is the constant contact of the lowest strata of both races that gives rise to nearly all of the serious manifestations of race jealousy and hatred. Rev DeBerry did not advocate the setting aside of a certain state county township or district for the executive use of the Negroes, but he pointed to what being done in Durham, N.C., where a section of the city is controlled and controlled by the Negroes. They there then are not the blacks, the whites, the liberals and the Democrats of the city, applied by Negroes is under the part of the city. It contains Negroes all but as in any other community the totals are low and red and living are able to keep on check and making it degenerate. DeBerry closed by saying that the capable working out his will that they are brother and be opportunity. BAR JAPANESE IN Y M C A Special to The New York Age.

HIGH TRIBUTE PAID OUR NEGRO SOLDIERS Percentage of Desertions for Colored Troops 1.33 and 1.52 per Cent.; for White Troops 3.77 per Cent. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, D.C., Nov 22 -- The Adjutant General of the Army in his annual report just issued pays a high tribute to the colored soldier's reliability. In reporting on desertions in the army he says the lowest percentage of desertions was among the colored troops. For instance, the desertions from the 22th Infantry and 113th Cavalry, both colored, were but 1.13 and 1.52 per cent of the whole number, while the per cent of desertions in the white troops reached the high rate of 3.77 per cent of the whole number. Referring to the low rate of desertions in the British army which was but 1.15 per cent, the Adjutant General says. It will be seen that the desertion rate of our colored troops compares favorably with the very low rate of the British army, and that both of these rates are very much lower than the desertion rate of our white troops. In much as our colored soldiers are treated in every way precisely the same as our white soldiers, it is evident that this treatment is not the cause of desertion. In this connection, a remark made by Secretary of War Proctor, in his report for the year 1889 is pertinent. In speaking of the difference between the white and colored enlisted men of the army, in the matter of desertions, he said, "To the colored man the service offers a career, to the white man too often only a refuge." Referring further to desertions, the Adjutant General says, "If the deserter payment of a poll tax in this State, insignificant as that of our colored troops, we might well ignore the deserter altogether and consider the service well rid of him." HOLD SUCCESSFUL SESSION Western North Carolina A. M. E. Zion Conference Proved Interacting and Instructive—Bishop Clinton Presides—To Meet Next Year at Salisbury. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Statesville, N.C. Nov. 22. The 20th annual session of the Western North Carolina Conference of the A M E Zion Church, which convened here last week, was the most successful ever held by the conference Bishop George W Clinton presided. This conference embraces the western portion of the State and has two presiding elders' districts and about ninety appointments including missions. The presiding elders of these districts are Revs M V Marble, H L Simmons, S D Watkins, H Blake and H B Bennett. In this conference district is located Livingstone College. At Salisbury, N.C. which is this denomination's oldest and strongest institution and has a property valuation of $225,000, and an enrollment of over 300 students. In the same district will be found the A M E. Zion publishing house, located at Charlotte, which is probably the best and largest property owned by any Negro publishing house in the United States. The present building in which the principal part of the printing business of this denomination is done was erected this year at a cost of $15,000. There are over 20,000 members in this conference and the churches within this conference have contributed more than $100,000 for general and local church work, of this amount for the year the amount for the general church has reached $10,000 The conference is composed of representative ministers, many of whom have had the advantage of college and seminary training. Bishop Clinton especially requires that his ministers must have the required training to meet the peculiar needs of their people Address of Bishop Clinton. He met the approbation of the large audience when he enunciated: I think that I speak Advisedly when I say that the Negro who has the best interest of his country and the welfare of his race at heart is willing to welcome any regulation of the franchise which is reasonable, fair and equally applied to all classes. I do not think that any Negro should desire especial legislation on account of his color or previous condition, and I am sure it is unfair to him and uncreditable to him that the state nation to make him the victim of laws which can be operated so as to place him at a disadvantage and entail upon him humiliation and sufferings which not only militate against him as a citizen entitled to equal treatment at the hands of the law, but are to a large extent intimate to his comfort and health. That the Negro must use his vote for the best interest of the community in which he resides rather than to allow a party that does not consider his personal interest to control him was a significant conclusion of the church's address. Dr W H Coffey, secretary of Church Extension Board, made a strong appeal to members of conference to stand for an intelligent preparation of all ministers to meet exigencies they are to master. Prof S G Atkins, secretary of education, created a deep interest for educational movement in the denomination. Bishop J. S. Caldwell assisted Bishop Clinton in presiding, and made an interesting narration of the events during the period his denomination was closing a deal on the handsome church now known as Varnack Memorial Temple. A substantial amount of money was raised by the ministers and laymen of the conference. Dr W H. Goder, president of Livingstone College Prof J E. Aurrey, D W Wallace, W O Carrington News. W J Walls, H T Medford, Dr Mio C. Clement editor of Star of Zion's Drs. F K Bird R B Bruce, W L L. and M D. Lee, general officers, inspired the conference by their talks. The conference adjourned Sunday night to convene the second Wednesday in November 1911, in Solomon's Memorial Church, Salisbury CELEBRATION IN CHICAGO Well-Known Negroes Men and Celebrate One Hundredth Anniversary of the Birth of Theodore Parker—Prof. Isaac Fisher Principal Theater. Special to The New York Times Chicago, Ill., Nov. 22—Chicago has just passed through a week given over to the celebration of the one-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Theodore Parker, who fifty years ago was one of the most valiant champions of human rights in New England. The event brought to Chicago distinguished men and women as teachers, ministers, scientists, jurists, authors, merchants and journalists. The celebration had many of the features of the great parlement of religions held in Chicago during the Columbian Exposition of 1993. One of the most interesting characters of the occasion was Prof Isaac Fisher, of Fine Bluff, Ark., president of the Arkansas Normal and Industrial School of that city. Prof Fisher is an alumnus of Tuskegee Institute and is one of the men who has won high distinction as a teacher and leader of those forces that make for better economic and social conditions among his people Prof Fisher will be remembered as one of the successful prize winners in a contest for the best essay on a great variety of social and economic subjects. The committee which planned for the Chicago celebration in honor of Theodore Parker generously decided that such a celebration would not be complete without some recognition of Parker's great services to the cause of freedom. The committee happily selected Prof Isaac Fisher as a hit representative of the colored people on this occasion. He soon became one of the most interesting figures in this assembly of eminent men. His address at the Abraham Lincoln Center on Wednesday afternoon and at the banquet given at the Auditorium Hotel aroused great enthusiasm and interest and were in fact the striking features of the celebration. In his address on Wednesday afternoon Prof Fisher paid a glowing tribute to his former teacher and friend, Dr Booker T Washington which was received with marked enthusiasm by the audience. On this occasion the following resolution was offered by Mrs Fannie Barrier Williams, which was unanimously adopted. The members of the Frederick Douglass Center and the colored people of the age Illiminately proffered the generous spirit of Dr. Frederick Douglass in making the kindness of Prof. Lester Lighter to the kindness of the knights and other members of the Frederick Barrier Center. It was said that we extend to Dr. Frederick Douglass our deep gratitude for the noble spirit of courtesy and fellowship shown in the deserved honors to Dr. Lester Lighter. We wish that this conversation shall be continued in the higher walks of the splendidly compile the truthful spirit of Theodore Parker's book in a valuable chameleon of the rights of men and women of liberty and the purity of humanity. We are present at the reception were F. E. Greenwalt, Walter L. Lerner, T. Greenewalt, Dr. and Mrs. L. Lerner, H. Barnett, Dr. and Mrs. Jerome, of the city, Dr. Bailey, of Boston, Miss Hofst. of New York, Dr. and Mrs. Spencer Dickerson, M. H Hyman and daughters Mr. and Mrs. J Harris, Mr. and Mrs. S. J Ivans and Dr. and Mrs. H Woolley and many others S. Laing Williams presided. Baby's Thanksgiving Dream A CATHOLIC CHURCH HAS BIG CELEBRATION SERVICES LARGELY ATTENDED Rev. Charles R. Uncles, Oldest Negro Priest in the United States, Speaks in the Evening. Last Sunday St Benedict's Roman Catholic Church, in West 53d street, celebrated its twenty seventh anniversary of the opening of the mission. There was a large congregation present at the 11 o'clock Mass. In the evening Rev Chas R Uncles of Baltimore, was the celebrant. Rev Wm Livingston, pastor of St Gabriels Church, was deacon, and Rev James O'Mahony, of St Benedict's was subdeacon. In the sanctuary were V Rev Mgr Murphy, Rev Jas T Barry, and V Rev John P Chidwick, D D, president of St Joseph's Seminary, Dunwoodie, N Y. The sermon on the Gospel of the day was preached by Rt Rev P J Haves, D D, Chancellor of the Archdiocese of New York. Prominent Catholics Attend. In the evening at the Vespers, Rev Edwin M Sweeny, pastor of the Church of the Ascension, was celebrant, assisted by Rev Thos J Lynch and Rev Jas O Mahony, Rev John F Burke, directors general of the National Mission Board, and Rev F P Burke, of St Ambrose Church, were in attendance. Father Uncles preached an impressive sermon on the text, Seek we first the Kingdom of Heaven." He made full allowance for the value of the prizes which the world can offer to those who serve it, but insisted that those should not satisfy any minor woman who was created by Almighty God for the eternal things of heaven. He illustrated his text from the example of St Benedict, the Moor, the patron of the church, and showed how this spirit kills the Kingdom of Heaven, had ground the immortal life and at the same time had not inscribed any way the really good that life has with praise and thanks to whoever has made it. Career of Father Uncles congregation had the pleasure on Sunday night of listening to a most instructive sermon by the oldest colored priest in the United States. There are four others St Benedict's Church was opened in Bleecker street in 1883, and was removed to West 53d street in 1898. It is intended for the use of all the colored people in New York City. Sunday services at 11 a. m. and 6 p. m. are very well attended, though the people are scattered throughout the city. FOR SEGREGATION Democrats in First Branch of the City Council, Baltimore, Pass for Second Reading Ordinance for Segregation of Negroes. Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. Baltimore Mid Nov 22 - The Democrat in the First Branch of the City Council Monday evening passed, for second reading, a favorably reported ordinance for the segregation of Negroes in this city. The Democratic majority will likely adopt the ordinance, which is the result of the alleged depreciating effect on property values in the residential section by the blacks becoming tenants therein. On several avenues the presence of Negro residents has lowered values from 10 to 50 per cent, it is claimed. The committee in its report says that "unless some early and effective solution is found more friction and disorder between the races will result," and "that public policy demands preventive legislation." The report further says, "No fault is found with the Negroes' ambitions, but the committee feels that Baltimoreans will be criminally negligent as to their future happiness if they suffer the Negroes' ambitions to go unchecked. The existence of such an ambition is a constant enmue to the social quetude and property values of every white neighborhood in Baltimore." The ordinance forbids white persons moving into an obviously Negro residential block and lays a restraining hand on Negroes who would locate in white residential sections TO TEST GRANFATHER CLAUSE.

O. P. on November 8th MAKE POOR SHOWING "Lily Whites" Did Not Win Out in a Single Instance Although they Made Many Boasts THE NEGRO VOTE NEEDED Appointment of Democrats to Office and Elimination of Negro Officeholders Not Very Productive. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 22—Since the recent election the question is being asked: What part, if any, did the Lily Whites of the South play in electing candidates to office? The query usually brings forth the ready response: "The Lily Whites made a miserable and disappointing showing and failed to make good their pre election boasts." The Lily Whites throughout the Southland have not talked much politics since November 8. They have about come to the conclusion that their inability to make good their promises has eliminated them as factors in the Republican party in the South. Had they been successful they could have shown the administration at Washington how productive was the idea of eliminating the Negro vote, but as matters now stand they know full well that overtures will have to be made to the Negro voters in order to make a respectable showing. Hitchoook's Hobby Dies in Embrya. Postmaster General Hitchcock, who has actively supported the Lily White movement in the South, despite the protests of influential Negro newspapers and prominent members of the race, is said to be chagrined over the poor showing made by the Lily Whites. Had the Lily Whites won he could have pointed with pride to his pet method of winning over the South and could be now in a position of being able to convince President Taft of the wisdom of adopting an anti Negro policy. However, it will now take the Postmaster General all his time trying to explain to the President just how much the Republican party has benefitted by throwing many Southern Negro office holders out since the Taft regime. Nowhere in the South has the Republican party profitted by ignoring the Negro voter and espousing the cause of Lily Whitesim. Despite the claims before election that if the Negro was estimated in the South the Republicans would have a better chance to win at the polls, results show that little attention was paid by the Democrats to the invitation extended by the Lily Whites to come over on the other side on the plea that the Negro voters no longer controlled the situation so far as relates to the Republican party Why Some Democratic Congressmen Won. Owing to the anti Negro attitude of the Lily Whites several Democratic Congressmen have been elected from the South, and by Negro votes. Although the colored voters in many instances were none too enthusiastic in voting for a Democrat, set they desired to show their resentment toward Lily Whitism and did so. The 115,000 Republican vote in North Carolina in 1908 shows quite a shrinkage this year. Two years ago three Republicans were elected to Congress from the State, while North Carolina will be represented in the next Congress by a solid Democratic delegation. The appointment of Judge Connor, a Democrat, as a Federal Judge, did not help matters. The Seventh and Ninth Congressional Districts in Georgia gave Republican candidates in 1909. On November 8 the vote was too insignificant to warrant it. It will be remembered that in the District Democrat was appointed United State District Attorney another United State District Attorney and the elimination of New York District Attorney appoints Leaders Now Figuring It is of the utmost importance at Washington to now try to figure out two important items. First "Of what benefit is Lily Whiteism?" and second, "What has the Republican party gained by appointing Democrats to office in the South and the wholesale elimination of Negro Presidential appointees?" THE NEW YORK AGE THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1910. AMONG THE CHURCHES Mother Zion Raiders $1,500. Never in the history of Mother Zion has the church done so well in a leadership entertainment as the year of 1910. The perfect unity existing among the church membership, the cordial relations between pastor and the officials and the hearty and unstinted support given by those other than members of the church made it possible for the leaders to turn into the church the handsome sum of 81,560. To James A. Hophina, the chairman of the executive committee, is largely due the credit for the magnificent sum Mr. Hophina worked like a Trojan. M. H. night and day, to make the entertainment a success, and not alone was he content to see every class raise more money than ever before, but he himself led the van with $290.54, raising three times more money this year than he did last. Every leader did proportionately well and they deserve credit for their splendid work. Unstinted praise must be given the members and their host of friends and to the pastor, Rev. Bolden, whose efforts have always been bent toward a closer relation with the spirit as exemplified through the life of Christ, for this grand rally. Pastor and people vied with each other in a long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether. Every leader made strenuous efforts to better all previous records, and their exertions, with the help of the members, were crowned with unsurpassed success. The following amounts were raised: Chase No. 11, M. T. Smith, leader $25.19; No. 9, H. W. Morrison, leader $38.65; No. 5, R. H. Porter, leader $58.46; No. 7, E. W. Williams, leader $54.46; No. 2, C.

The congregation of St Mark's M E Church worshipped at Alviston Baptist Church Friday night in a union prayer meeting Rev W H Brooks delivered a fine sermon. The audience was large and appreciative. The pastor, Dr Brooks, filled his pulpit on Sunday morning and preached a helpful sermon. "Jesus," said Dr Brooks "suffered every temptation that can be imposed on a human soul." "Nearly, every strong character in the Bible failed in some way. Paul, realizing the weaknesses of humanity, said "Let us come bodily unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace." Men go to pieces because they fall to obtain strength for time of need. The man who says no, does not reach that point at once without previous preparation." Dr. Brook told of an individual who had once professed Christ but had strayed away. This individual was taken sick a few days ago and Dr. Brooks called to see him and inquired of his relationship with Christ. He acknowledged that he was still far away but was coming back again. This man died before another day. Rev. M. W. Gilbert, of Mt. Olivet, addressed the Lyceum on the subject of the Southern Negro and his outlook. The Epworth League rendered quite an interesting program. The Mercy and Help department of which Mrs. M. C. Copeland is president, had charge. At the evening service Prof. R. J. Brown, of Texas, occupied the pulpit and talked upon "Truth." J. B. Wood has charge of the program at the Lyceum next Sunday.

Their ancestors came here years ago against their will, and this is their only country and their only flag." "Any recognition of distinguished Negroes, any appointment to office from among their number, is properly taken as an encouragement and an appreciation of their progress, and this just polioy shall be pursued." "Personally, I have not the slightest race prejudice or feeling, and recognition of its existence only awakens in my heart a deeper sympathy for those who have to bear or suffer from it, and I question the wisdom of a polioy which is likely to increase it." Extracts from the Inaugural Address of William H. Taft. ON THANKSGIVING A good and wise custom is our Thanksgiving. It was first suggested because from war and strife our nation had emerged victorious, and because, despite war and strife, plenty had been our lot, and progress had been our share among the nations. Now Thanksgiving in in large measure our only national holiday. No other day is so universally respected. This may be explained because all men, while disgreeing upon the importance of other days, are certain that this nation has received blessings in abundance, and may well praise God from whom all blessings come. With thousands this is home-coming day. Families divided by great distances are reunited, and good-will is everywhere among the people. The American Negro has, in the way of comparison, more to be thankful for than any element of our population. We may not enjoy every privilege enjoyed by others and that in due time we, too, shall enjoy, but we are greatly advanced over former years, and are moving swiftly on the highway of achievement. In every direction there is substantial growth, and on every hand there are loyal friends willing to help us on the way. Our colleges are filled with the leaders of to-morrow, and never more than to-day were present leaders more competent or more loyal to the ends of that freedom that shall make us free indeed. From border to border Negroes are buying homes, and homes long established were never more cultivated or more filled with love of country and fear of God. Prejudice against us, prejudice that saps the Presence out of hearts that bear it, may press heavily upon us, but it grows less. We feel it more keenly now, although its sting may be blunted, because we have increased in knowledge and measured higher to lines set by our civilization. Churches are filled with an ever-increasing intelligent membership, and the pulpit has abler and cleaner preachers to-day than it might claim yesterday. The pride of race that must precede all hope of strength and endurance in the race set before us, is becoming evident north and south. Let us thank God that we are no longer ashamed that we came down from the glories of Ethiopia. We are thankful that Europe has heard from the lips of our Washington the story of our rise to the dignity of American citizenship. We are thankful that to New York the Negro business men came and startled those given to thought with a record of their matchless progress. We are thankful that our first men in the science of medicine impressed hardened Washington and all the country with their skill and learning. We are thankful for the words of the just judge of Maryland who was in no wise afraid or ashamed to deny the petition of wicked men seeking to rob us of rights won for us and for all in a terrible sacrifice of devoted lives. We are thankful that the Chief Magistrate of the nation has protested by unmistaken signs that men shall not be less than men because of their color. Indeed, a thousand blessings streaming down from God, whose ways are past finding out, move us to grateful praise, and inspire within the hearts of each good-will to all and hope that peace on earth may be established among nations. Let us forget the things that are behind, and move on, determined to make of ourselves a worthy type of American citizens, winning men to our side by sheer force of achievement, and by an exhibition of character that no man may dare attack or scorn. NAILING THE HYPOCRITE. Fighting a continued hypocrite is much like fighting Satan. He must be fought all the time and he must be expelled from a circle. It has become apparent days to No. 1. Notice the giving, misgiving, and vague distrusts of B. J. Davis and his independent and Atlantic publication. Northwest is not only been activated by my motives except to save the right and to prevent Mr. Davis from serving the wrong. The mantle Dallas Express, whose editor on sight a pervert three miles away by actual measurement has boldly come to bear, is mounting recently one of the Georgians aggravating their tenders of conjecture in support of an antitamus express the Error says. The Atlanta independent says While fire-alarm Negroes in sister Northern States are holding indignation meetings and printing every item of Southern brothers, the latter are steadfastly making friends with their white neighbors of the South by their orderly lives and increasing the land holdings and bank accounts. We are at peace in the nation and prosperity is within our borders. Ah Ben Davis you are at it again. There is nothing in the above fulmation absolutely nothing. The fire alarm Negroes in sister Northern States, to our mind, are doing for us what we should thank them for. So far as 'being at peace with our neighbors' is concerned the daily happenings right in Atlanta and throughout the whole South tell their own grease-scourging story. Every legal election board distancing the colored voter Every court of law a mockery of justice when a Negro has a cause against a white man. Every street car and passenger train and station disgrace to our so-called free institutions make up the peace' which one finds 'in our borders'. Colored men must learn to tell the truth about conditions in the South. If they are afraid to tell the truth and demand equal and fair treatment, they should at least refuse to tell falsehoods about the situation The Dallas Express is an American newspaper not a "colored" organ. It believes that America has only one Declaration of Independence and but one National Constitution one flag. It believes that a man should have a man's chance to be a man. The Independent believes the same way and if it has not the courage of its conviction, it should learn at least that "silence is golden." In the contest for equal liberty and opportunity in this country, the colored man should poltroon and coward and hypocrite. He who would be free himself must strike the blow. We deny the assertion that there is peace within our borders. Not only is there no peace there will be no peace until the humbleest citizen, at a flag in whose waying folds he can see freedom alike for all. There will no peace until the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution mean the same thing in Atlanta that they mean in St. Paul. Let Southern Colored men quietly, let them live quietly, honorably, industriously, and accept no settlement of the race question until it is settled right. Now what will Ben Davis say? Will he crow back at the Express, and try a new short stunt of philosophy in an other exhibition of some result in real success? No one better than Dawson's handsome grammarman knows that the Negro editors and publishers of the North have done a work for their people in the free speechless South second in importance only to the labors of the abolitionists before the Rebellion. Forbid the pens of the Northern Negro editors or remove from the public platform the Negro orators in this section and the Southern Negro would be surrounded by a really terrible political and economic slavery. But these pens will never be stilled nor these voices hushed, for in large measures the workers come from the South (where much that is dear to them still remains) and they are therefore familial with both the knee-bending type of the Negro represented by Ben Davis and the evil white man whose willing tool he is. COLORED POPULATION We fear from certain indications that our people will be disappointed in the number of colored people living in the United States. We already note that the census bulletins so far as they have been given out by States, indicate a falling off of the population in the Black Belt counties in certain Southern States. We fear that in spite of the efforts on the part of the President and the Congress Bureau to guard against mistakes that there has been carelessness at map points in counting colored people. We heard some time ago of a case in one of the Southern States where in one township alone between 400 and 500 colored people were not counted. In this case, however there was a recount which revealed the former mistake. If conditions in this township is an indication of what has been done in other portions of the South, it can easily be seen that the Negro will suffer greatly so far as the recorded increase in numbers is concerned. Will President Taft, upon his return, sing that old minstrel, "Who's Been Here Since I've Been Gone?" MEXICO. A few weeks ago the anniversary of Mexican liberty was celebrated with pomp and splendor, the like of which, all things being considered, had not before been witnessed. The great powers sent ambassadors and representatives to join in the festivities, and to protest the respect and good will of the civilized nations for the jewel of western liberty. Our country was represented by a special commission, in addition to which ex-Goy Curtis Guild of Massachusetts, appeared as the especial representative of President Tait High speeches and warm expressions of regard and hope for continued amity between the two great republics of North America were heard from Mexican patriots and American citizens. It was all sincere, and spared well for the mutual desist of the two countries. Mr. Guild was expressly enthusiastic in the reports he made in his trip to the frontlines of Mexico, the level headiness of Diaz and the wonderful progress the republic has made in just government and in developing its natural resources. To day we are seriously discussing how to assert war between the two countries. The present trouble is due to causes more than one, causes each of which is attributable to the bad behaviour of both the citizens of Texas and the Americans who live in Mexico and, protected by citizenship under our flag, fleece the people as they can, scorn the traditions and customs of the people, and flaunt insults in the face of Mexican officials. The wonder is not that Mexico is now indignant but that it has endured in admirable silence the arrogance and insults of Americans for so long a while. The Texans, of whom perhaps we should expect no other conduct, treat Mexicans as they treat their Negroes Unlike their Negroes, Mexicans have not taken kindly to this treatment. The Americans concurring in Mexico, it they have made any effort in that direction, have been unable to curb the exhibition of that contempt the American white man entertains not only for all colored people, but also for all his own property out of the bone and blood of women not of his race. Mexico is founded on liberty. There all men are free. No color line alarms the defenders of its civilization. No creed or race is helped or hindered by law of neglect or exason, and caste is almost unknown. The Americans do not understand that doctrine, and are alarmed lest it crosses the Rio Grande and confuse and corrupt this nation, that has talked a great deal more of liberty and freedom than Mexico has talked of them. The Springfield Republican relates the immediate cause of the present situation with a caustic comment upon the hypocritical tendencies of our countrymen towards the Mexican Republic. The violent attacks by Mexican rioters upon American residents and the insult to the American flag in Mexico City, much as they are to be deplored and condemned, were the natural sequel to the atrocious performances by our fellow citizens at Rock Springs, AKA the Rock City. The stake he had murdered a ranchman's wife. Our white savages are a sorry national asset. They have grown so accustomed to lynching Negroes even by the slow torture of fire, that they recklessly use the method on the innocent. They have protected the treaty rights, and thus they bring upon the whole country serious international difficulties. Indeed they bring upon the country serious international difficulties, and a continuance of the conduct that has tolowed Americans into Mexico will bring upon us something even worse than serious difficulties. It would be a perfectly proper thing in the interest of peace and decency, our Government should establish in the State Department a Bureau of Manners, which would look after our citizens who may travel in lands where the inhabitants are not 'white, with sun kissed curls of love and war.' At any rate, we hope that some way may be devised by which Texas and American gold brick drummers cannot lead us into war with Mexico. The astounding growth of sentiment in respect of the principles of the Socialist party was one of the really interesting disclosures of the recent election. Everywhere over the country, and in New York particularly, where Mr Russell made surprising inroads in the strongholds of the old party, there were Socialist gains. For the first time there will be a Socialist member of Congress, Victor S. Berger, of Wisconsin. What does this mean? Do not say it means nothing, for that would be foolish. Does it mean that the people want a try at socialism? Or does it really mean that they do not appreciate the obvious dangers of socialism? One cannot longer bow down the Socialist orator, not talk of destroying the Appeal to Reason. Mr Russell's conceded brilliance as a thinker and writer may explain the phenomenal vote he got in the State of New York, but what of the Socialist candidates in other States and other sections? Socialism, for good or evil, is making rapid advances. What do the Socialists think of the absolute equality of man without regard to race, color or previous conditions? We imagine that the heralded antipathy between the Negro and the Irish is due to the striking similarity between them. Both are given to much talking and van boasting, both love music, and both insist that their woes are greater than their joys any direction, while the combined labors for good government by the World, the Sun, the Evening Post, and the schoolmaster of journalism, the Springfield Republican, turned the country upside down and vindicated government by law The "yaller" press is with us forever, to supply the drug for diseased brain, but its power has been poisoned by the breath of scandal that forms its chief exudation MR. GOMPERS' SPEECH The dispatches from St Louis tell us that Mr Gompers denied with much vehement the statement credited to him that the American Federation of Labor did not want Negro members, and that he had advised the labor unions against admitting colored men to membership Mr Gompers may be smarter in his attitude (and we have no reason to shut his speech) but the attitude of the labor unions toward the Negro has been precisely as if he had advised them to touch the Negro labor everywhere. The labor unions, we hold have done labor great injury. They extort upon property and blight a damaging influence, and are a dangerous nuance to the well being of the people. They are agents of terror, for the most part, and are monsieurate of the rights of both capital and the people. Their attitude towards Negro labor, skilled and unskilled, particularly in the North, has always been bitterly hostile, and in the South, wherever they have gotten a foothold, the effort has been made to kill off Negro labor. Where the Negro laborers in the South have been organized into unions, they have been used to kill off capital. Indeed the unions seem bent on killing off something In New York Negro masons, carpenters and otherwise skilled artisans or tradesmen are compelled to give up their tools and hunt work as memals because white union labor refuses to work by their side, and because, in other instances, they cannot get into the union. Wherever they may work without competing with white men, they may enjoy the tyrannical protection of the unions. These conditions, we imagine, time will change to reason's side, but all the protestations that Mr. Gompers can make in a twelve-month cannot influence the facts. It the American Federation of Labor is square on this matter it may prove its position by mandatory orders to all its allied bodies, not only to accept Negro members, but to protect them against the blind prejudice of the white union members. GOOD FOR PHILADELPHIA Aside from an occasional member on the Massachusetts Lower House, the East has had no Negro State Senators and Representatives. This is due not to the East, but to the Negroes who congregate in the East and call it home. Pennsylvania will have in Harry W. Bass, the able Philadelphia lawyer, who was elected November 6 its first Negro Legislator. But it is sate to say that Mr. Bass' name will rest there, for now that the ice has been broken he will not be the last. The Philadelphia Negro may move under the celebrated local spot of their town, but in politics they are not sleep. They have had counsel for years deputy sheriffs without oud and municipal clerks without number. These honors have come as the natural result of a united and intelligent leadership. The Quaker man and brother may fuss and scratch among themselves, but when they come out before the public, they are united and daring in that union. Note with what munamits the colored men of Philadelphia and of all Pennsylvania are supporting J C. Ashury for the position of sub treasurer at Philadelphia. Mr. Bass, as our correspondent pointed out last week, is a strong, progressive force, an able lawyer a race defender, and long identified with the people. We do not wonder why the people are proud of his election. How long are we here in New York going to dabble around, divided and jealousy crazed, before we will put all this tom foolery aside, and elect some colored man to anything—alderman, Assembly or Senate? "San Juan Hill" and Harlem are our dreams. Shall we simply dream on? IOS. F. JONES. More and more, year after year, the countless fraternities of the Negro race exercise a wonderful, and in most cases, a helpful influence upon the life of the community. Good men will make good fraternities, had men will destroy all fraternities. For many years ten years at least, the Knights of Pythias has been fortunate in the kind and character of men who have controlled its affairs. It gave to the larger life of the people the inspiring career of the late S. W. Starks, that giant intellect, in turn, gave life and standing to the organization as a national and important body. He made it first in effectiveness. It is his monument, and is sufficient. Supreme Chancellor Green announces the appointment of Joseph L. Jones to the office of Supreme Vice-Chancellor to succeed the lamented Strauther. No better man could have been found among the 140,000 members Mr Jones is a soldier, a gentleman, and a worthy son of the times. The organization, through him, advances far in front Col Abe Gruber saw in the conduct of the County Committee last week that events change men's minds, not men's minds events. If the reception given the Colonel on his visit to Washington last week is any sign, he won't have to "come back," for he has gone nowhere The political wise acres will not forget that Uncle Joe Cannon got the largest majority of any Republican re-elected to Congress We admire Oscar Hammerstein for that wonderful and unfailing trait to answer criticism by achievement, and talk when he has something to say Our friendly relations with Mexico are just now largely in the keeping of the governors of Texas and Oklahoma.

Mayor Gavin is just the man to whom it is a good thing to talk sense in municipal improvements. In introducing Justice Hughes to the members of the Lotus Club, Saturday evening last, President Lawrence said that Justice Hughes could hardly be called a politician. President Lawrence's reliable judgment fails for the first time. More calculating politician, a politician that counted every word and measured every step, the State of New York never saw. I no longer make appeals," said Justice Hughes. "I now hear them." And no politician ever made appeals with that discerning inspiration that marked the now happily ended political career of the former Governor of the Empire State. NEWS AND COMMENT The Rev Dr R H Bodd, of Nashville, to whom more than to anybody, else is the credit for the really great Publishing House of the Baptists at Nashville the largest costest and com- plete printing plants owned by the Negro race, travels a great deal. He likes people, and he likes to meet them tint to tint, and to see for himself and to see for himself and to see for himself. His reports are always delightful reading. Recently he visited New York in the Union Review he writes. I visited the New York Baptist State Convention colored at the first time in the history of the organization. We found the biennial wide awake. We were indeed a little surprised to find that the New York Baptist State Convention throws its protection around something like a city colored Baptist churches. Some of these churches have as many as two thousand members where of state. It would be probably surprising to many of the readers of the Union Review to know that there are more colored people in New York City than there are in Richmond Va. and more colored people in Philadelphia Pa. than in New Orleans, La. I do not mean by this that the percentage is anything like or anything to be compared with these but the number is there. At a glance it would seem that they are lost among the great population. It is like putting a gallon of lampblack in a fifty gallon barrel of whitewish. When it is well mixed the lampblack is not so apparent, but when placed under close observation the lampblack is in there, though greatly hidden by the white molecules or atoms, but the black molecules or black atoms are still there. This is true of the colored race in the great Eastern cities. Prof John W. Work, of Esk University, travels constantly with a quartette of young men who sing all they know how to raise money for the great university at Nashville. Recently while in Vermont Prof Work paid a visit to the colored soldiers stationed at Fort Ithan. When the fighting Join Cavalry He visited several troops sang for the officers, met the chaplain an old Tennessee friend, and was otherwise active. It would not take much persuasion to convert Mr. Work into a soldier, to judge from the enthusiastic account of his trip in the Nashville Globe. But the machine gun platoon of the Tenth Cavalry, Mr. Work says, is the best on the U. S. A. He writes. In truth, there is a charm about the soldier's life born of order discipline and punctual discipline and true respect for authority. It just did my heart good to witness a conversation between the chaplain and the corporal. It sounded and looked like a scene in some little drama. The same was true when the chaplain was addressing a higher officer or even a private. Everything is 'rank' in the army. Association is based upon rank to such a degree as we in private life can never wholly know or understand, but it is most interesting. This particular regiment, the Tenth Cavalry, is one of the finest and most efficient in the regular army. It has some of the best marksmens to be found anywhere 'Expert riflemen', sharpshooters and marksmens can be found in it and they do not get to be any better than expert riflemen. We saw prizes for accurate shooting and badges for the same. There are also expert horsemen who handle successfully the worst of horses Corporal Thomas' horse is named 'Devil', so much like 'His Majesty' is he, but the corporal rides him and loves him just the same. There is also in this regiment the best machine gun platoon in the army "We found them in their quarters and were struck with the similarity of their makeup. They were all built for speed on the order of the greyhound or deer, keen, litte and alert. For this platoon, it is a custom to pick the swiftest men from all the troops. The aggregation consists of about twenty two men, a machine gun and some mules. In time of action the gun is thrown across the mule, which is trained to run just as fast as he can to some spot generally marked by trees or some other object. The men take off the gun, paying no attention, for the present, to the mule set it up and pour into the enemy from poot to mule, a minute. We locked behind the machine gun platform for pool and accuracy. It can start from any given pool, mule, men gun and all dash fun vards, take the gun from the mule set it up by price, and but a target fun test away in 20 seconds. It can put the gun up without the running out the mule and shoot one shot in 10 seconds. This is the world's record. And it is one of which to be proud."

(Far far, has that pathway gone) The earth is littered with broken creeds. And always the dark man's tent rec codes. And the white man pushes on For this is the law, be it good or ill. All things must yield to the stronger will Wherever the white man's light is shed (Oh, far has that light been thrown) The nature has suffered and beauty fled The goal of the race has been thrust ahead And the might of the race has grown For this is the law, be it cruel or kind.

Enterprise, Dr. Booker Washington, the wizard of Tuskegee, is never more in evidence for good among his fellows than for efforts puny and futile are made to little his worth and decry his usefulness and influence in the upfitment of the Negro and the general advancement of America and the world. We have no pain whatever with that classt so narrow humanity composed of envious Afro-Americans and unduly apprehensive Anglo-Saxons who whenever opportunity presents itself delight in speaking or writing disparagingly of the school's lifework, and attributing smothered deserving triumphs of the world's greatest apostle of modern industry. There can be no question as to the towering and masterful individuality of Booker T. Washington on the workings, black and white who would depict the man or minority to me more than any human works for betterment in society. He is not only the teacher Negro in the educational world but one of the small army of the world benefactors who have caused a burden of grass to grow where none grew before. Mr. Washington began his career with his comparatively new colleagues. He encounter most severely unkindest criticism from a very large percent of the Negro pulpit and press who branded him as an enemy to the Negro's progress. But time has proven the fallacy of such censure and has shown Dr. Washington not only the human counselor that he is but a safe counselor for the white man well But there will always be baggage and self-seeking place-hunters and sticklers for cheap notoriously who delight in strife and disensions even when they are leaders of the race They have no need of race pride, race unity nor ideals of race progress Such are the weaklings who yelp at the footsteps of Dr Booker T Washington The Enterprise hope a halt may be called Let Negroes everywhere unite to deal with the problems of unequal enviousness and the rule or ruin policy have never yet advanced the cause of any race. PRAY. JOHN. PRAY (The Charleston (W. Va.) Advocate As soon as it became definitely known that the legislature would be democratic the Negro was of all the rights and legal rights, began a concern on the legislation affecting his status which would be probably enacted. He has with great reluctance, resigned himself to the separate coal state, and has proposed a proposal of a disfranchisement amendment follow closely in its wake. Senator-elect MacCorkle says we need fear neither, that we will be mistreated by class legislation of no kind. Here's hoping that the senator's proppy will come true. And it will if it happens. The senator is hoping to Hoyle. The rules are strong against a showing of hands during the next two years. It would be the war policy to let the race question several alone. Neither Jim crow cars nor any franchisement should be hinted at from any Democratic source. In this way the suspicions of the Negro would be less frightening. The measure would be secured and less forthe necessary to get control the reins of the government in Virginia. Once secure in all offices and backed by a Democratic insult, it would be a simple to enact the prospective legal rights of the Democratic counsellor wherever Democrits gain the advantage in the Southland It will be something new under the sun if Gov MacCorkle's party takes the stand which he predicts a stand on dramatically opposite to what history teaches one to expect. As was said, would be good politics to follow in the lead in these matters but there is a saying to the effect that the Dems want to be in a bad mood in a bad mood in itself in critical moments. Oh Lord, help them not to make inools of themselves at this crisis. "The Head Snake" "The Sumter (S. C.) Defender" Emboldened by President Taft's declaration that he would not appoint Negroes to office in the South where such appointment did not meet the apparent purpose to eliminate the Negro from politics by driving him out of the Republican party, Hon John G. Capers head snake of the Lily Whites, calls upon the Federal office holders and all other Democratic bodies of the Government trough, to rally to his standard and organize a Simon pave Lily White Republican party for which organization he holds out the hope of recognition by the National Administration, and National Organization of patronage following his control of South Carolina Republican affair after the next Presidential election.

He does not nor will he tell his expected followers that he is without influence prestige or standing with the Administration, and that this effort organizes a white Republican party to fortify to rehabilitate himself and himself from imminent self-destruction. Whatever influence of power he may possibly be able to exert from the official position which he now holds as the Republican National Committee was given to him by the Negro Republican of South Carolina in the election of the party.

Spurious Additions tp the Word of God Condemned. Cleveland, O., Nov. 20. - The Wise Man declared that a fly in the precious ointment would cause it to stink. We apply this suggestion to the Word of God the precious ointment which God has supplied. Certain duties (false booze) crept into it during the Dark PASTOR RUSSELT Age, which are now causing a bounty in industrial repudiation on the part of many of the best and wisest people in the world. All will admit that it is sufficient to humper with the Word of God to together add to or take from it or to wrest or twist or pervert its meaning. Why is it, then, that ministers of the Gospel, who know that certain passages of the Scriptures are not to be found in the older manuscripts, fail to show to the people the truth on this subject? And if these ministers are not fully informed, whose fault is that? Would it not be preferable that they should absent themselves from some of the fairs and festivals and social functions, in order to inform themselves? On what pretext are the clergy a specially privileged class, except for the purpose of giving their flocks reliable information along religious lines? And what is their commission from the Lord, except that they "should feed the flock of God, which he purchased with the blood of his own dear Son?" If the flock have been feeding upon certain Scriptures supposed to be genuine, and if they have been made sick thereby, and if their shepherds now know that these Scriptures are not a part of the Divine, inspired Word, why should not God's people be informed of the facts and be stopped from eating poisonous elements introduced by the Adversary? Poison In Our Bibles. The more others are silent, the more sor must speak. We cannot see God's sheep spiritually sick without warning them respecting their spiritual food. Not only have we received many misinterpretations of the parables and symbols of the Bible, but into our Bibles themselves certain false statements have been injected-long centuries ago. All well-informed ministers of the Gospel know that our New Testament was not translated from the writings of the Apostles, but from copies thereof. These, copied over and over again, no matter how carefully, were liable to errors. And in addition, as we might expect, occasionally, a bold transcriber would add a few words to make the record conform the better to his conception of what it ought to be. This went on for centuries before the art of printing came into use. The New Testament was translated from the Greek into the Latin language and was known as the Vulgate. From that Latin translation sprang our various English translations the Douyat or Catholic edition published in 1988 A. D., and the King James Bible, or Common Version, published in 1611 A. D. The latter was merely a revised translation, to assist in which revision other previous translations were used, and we are assured that the text was diligently compared with the Greek text. But until lately there were no ancient Greek manuscripts with which to compare it. The Greek manuscripts with which it was compared numbered only eight, none of which dated earlier than the Tenth Century. Today however, we have three very old Greek manuscripts of the New Testament, namely, the Alex andrian MS., the Vatican MS, and the Sinaitic MS. Of these, the Vatican MS was the first to come to the attention of modern scholarship. It is in the Vatican Library, appearing on its catalogue as far back as 1475 A. D., which manuscript scholarship accords with having been written in the fourth century. Next came the Alex andrian MS., which is supposed to have been written about the middle of the fifth century. It is now on exhibition in the British Museum. Finally, we have the Sinaitic MS., which is in possession of the Russian Government. It was found by Constantine Tischendorf in a Mt Sinal Convent, from which it takes its name. It is accredited with a date of about 350 A. D. Of these three oldest MS. of the New Testament known in the world, the Vatican and Sinaitic are the older Assuredly nothing should be considered as part of the original Scriptures that is not found in any of these three oldest MSS. Why should we not tell this to the people? Why should we not inform them that some of the most confusing texts of the Bible are not found in these old manuscripts? Is it not a sin to preach doctrines as from God which have no part in these early MSS? This is our thought. From time to time it will be our pleasure as well as our duty to teach the common people what the clergy are ready know on this subject. More over, the Bible Students Association of Brooklyn has arranged for the importation of copies of the New Testament bound in cloth showing the variations between the readings of these old Greek MSS and our Common Version. The usual price of these is $100, but importing them in large quanti- then, they are able to supply them post paid at 50c. each. Consider Now Our Text. "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved, but he that believeth not, shall be damned"—Mark xv1, 15, 16. One of the most important of these interpolations or poisonous additions engrafted upon the Word of God is in the sixteenth chapter of Mark, all of which, from the ninth verse to the end of the chapter, is spurious—frandulent. It is additional to anything that St Mark wrote, as evidenced by the fact that these verses are not found in any of the three oldest Greek MSS. Of course some of the items of those verses are found in other Gospels. It would never do to add a lie without a certain amount of covering of Truth to sugrant it! But nothere our text and what a wrong thought it gives inconsistent with the remainder of the Scriptures. Its intimation is that the provoking of the Gospel to every creature will result either in his believing it and being baptized and thus being saved, or in his disbelieving and being damned. And this word damned carries with it in the light of other misunderstandings, fire and blazings, roasting and torture, shrieking and woes indescribable. This is all wrong contrary to the authentic Scriptures. The authentic Scriptures inform us that this Gospel Age is one in which God is gathering from the world a "little flock" of footstep followers, saintly and elect, to constitute the Bride of Christ—his joint-heirs in his coming Kingdom. They show that not all are expected to hear this message at the present time—not many wise, great, learned or rich, but chiefly the poor. They assure us that to have the hearing ear is a special favor, saying "Blessed are your ears for they bear, and your eyes for they see." St. Paul tells us that the world in general is blind and deaf to the message now sent forth (Ronanus xl, 7), and the experiences of eighteen centuries corroborate this St. Peter tells us (Actus xv, 13) that God's work in the present time is not the conversion of the world (which certainly is not being accomplished) but that he is now taking out of the world a person for his name (to bear the name of Christ, as his Bride). The authentic Scriptures everywhere teach us that the poor, blind, deaf world, which has never yet heard fully and clearly of "the only name given under heaven or amongst men whereby we may be saved," is not on this account condemned or damned. They tell us that the whole world was born condemned, because children of Adam and shariers in his condemnation, but that God has provided in the sacrifice of Jesus a redemption for Adam and all his race. They tell us that, as a result in God's due time, Christ, as the true Light, the Sun of Righteousness, shall enlighten every man that cometh into the world. They explain that God is now calling on special class while the darkness is upon the earth and the gross darkness upon the heathen and that the Sun of Righteousness, which is to enlighten the whole world, will not arise until the elect Church shall first have been gathered out. They tell us that, in the New Dispensation yet to dawn, all the families of the earth will be blessed through The Christ Jesus, the Head and the Church his Body or Bride. They tell us that then all the blind eyes shall be opened and all the deaf ears shall be unstopped" (Isaiah xxxv. 5). They tell us that then the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in his beams flooding the whole earth with the light of the knowledge of the glory of God. They assure us that that will be the period of Messiah's reign for which we pray. The Kingdom come thy will be done on earth as in heaven." They tell us that the object of that reign will be that the world in general may have a trial to determine whether, with the light and knowledge and experience then granted, they will choose God and righteousness and the reward of eternal life, or will choose sin and its penalty, the Second Death Unbelievers Damned Already. Our word damned, from misuse and the bad theology of the Dark Ages, has a sulphurous odor whereas its plain, simple meaning is the same as the word condemn. Adam was damned or condemned 6000 years ago because of his disobedience. And all his children, by heredity, share his weaknesses and thus share his condemnation. But Adam is not condemned or damned to eternal torture nor to Purgatory. The Bible distinctly says in so many words that his sentence, his condemnation, his damnation, is to death "In the day that thou entest thereof, dying thou shalt die" (Genesis 11, 17 margin). After his disobedience, God said 'Unit' is the earth for thy sake. Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth unto thee. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread until thou return unto the ground from which thou wast taken, for dust thou art and unto dust shalt thou return" (Genesis 11, 17 19) This general sentence has rested upon all of Adams' race from that day until now. As St Paul declares By one man's disobedience, sin entered into the world and death (not eternal torment nor Purgatory) as a result of sin and thus death (not eternal torment nor Purgatory) passed upon all men, because all are sinners (Romana v. 12) Jesus came to redeem two classes—the Church and the world the Church class to be his "Bride" and to share his heavenly, spiritual Kingdom with him, the world to be blessed and restored to human perfection and to an earthly Eden, world-wide—God's footsteps made glorious The Church and household of faith, willing to walk in the footsteps of the Master in the dark, have been called during the past nearly nineteen centuries Boon the Correspondence that is sent to this office written on both sides of the paper will not be printed. worthy ones, the "little Rock," will enter into the joys of their Lord, at his Second Coming. The marriage of the Lamb shall come, for his Wife will have made herself ready (Rev xix, 7). Then the world's salvation will be due to begin. The Times of Restitution will be the thousand years of Messiah's spiritual reign as King of kings and Lord of lords. Fleshly Israel, we are assured, will then be restored to Divine favor and become the special and active agents of the Messianic Kingdom in the distribution of the Divine favors to all the families of the earth in the land and all the incorrigibly wicked, who love iniquity rather than righteousness will be destroyed. Thus, as the Apostle declares, the sacrifice of Jesus constitutes a satisfaction for our sins (the church's sins and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world) (I John 1: 2). Nonsensical. Spurious Context. Let us briefly notice another absurdity in the addition to God's Word found in the last twelve verses of St Mark's Gospel, fraudulently added and not found in any of the oldest Greek MSS. Notice the statement. These signs shall follow them that believe in my name shall they cast out devils they shall speak with new tongues. They shall take up serpents and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them. They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover" (verses 17, 18). The majority of Christian ministers and their congregations seem not to be troubled by the fact that they do not have these evidences of their relationship to the Lord, and they do not attempt to heal the sick, to speak with tongues, and would not dare to drink any poisonous thing. But there are certain conscientious people, the very cream of all the Churches, who are greatly perplexed by these words because they know that they are not true in their experience. With them, therefore, it is a matter of feeling doubtful about their own salvation, or a question as to the reliability of the Bible as a whole. They need to have the relief which we now seek to give them. They need to know that these are not inspired words, but poisonous and injurious additions made during the Dark Ages. They may, consequently, look elsewhere in the Scriptures and find the proper assurances of their relationship with God being demonstrated by the fruits of the holy Spirit in their lives and in their hearts "meekness, gentleness, patience, long suffering, brotherly kindness, love." Miracles In the Early Church. This spurious passage of our text is used by many ministers who know, or ought to know, of its falsity. But they have a certain theory in their mind to the effect that the miracles and unknown tongues of the early Church were lost by reason of unfathfulness to God, and that Christians today should seek for their recovery. Not having any Scriptures to support their claim they use this interpolation and allow their hearers and readers to believe it to be the inspired message. To what length have people gone in support of human theory? The first principle of preaching should be to preach the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth. Every theory which requires bolstering up by spurious passages should be abandoned, and will be abandoned by those who are honest truth seekers. "Bereans." Our Lord performed miracles. So did his Apostles. And so did those of the early Church upon whom the Apostles held their hands. But no others have this gift. Consequently when the Apostles were dead and when all those upon whom they had laid hands of blessing were dead, these miracles in the Church were at an end. We all see the propriety of this Miracles were appropriate at the beginning for the establishment of the Church and, for a time, were necessary for their encouragement. In their early meetings they had no source of information aside from the Apostles whom they rarely saw or heard. They had no Bibles no copies of the Gospel nor of the Epistles. They needed the very arrangement which God provided ed-tongues and interpretations of tongues, etc. to draw them together and to instruct them until, in due time, the canon of Scripture would be completed that, through it, the man of God might be thoroughly furnished unto every good word and work (II Tim 16, 17, 17. By the time the Apostles died the Church had become established, had regular meetings, pastors and teachers, the Gospels and Epistles, and some of them had begun to develop the fruits of the Spirit. Thus the early Church naturally outgrew the tongues and miracles and entered a larger sphere, just as a child loses its swaddling clothes in favor of more suitable attire. For God's people today to desire to go back to speaking with tongues etc. such as was practiced, and very profitably, in the early Church, would be like an adult person desiring to be dressed and treated as a babe. It is our understanding that the speaking with unknown tongues in religious meetings, which is gradually spreading over the world is a deception practiced upon carnest children of God, who are deceived by the fallen angels the demons of the Bible. They are thus enlailed to error and have their attention drawn away from the Truth. To what extent the ministers of Christ of today are responsible for the devision of these poor people is not our to determine. Had the spuriousness of the last verses of St Mark's Gospel been duly pointed out from every pulpit as soon as the old MRS were known, some, at least might have been spared from this source some who under misunderstanding, have been hindered from proper expectations in respect to God's Word and led improperly to expect the power of tongues and miracles suggested in this spurious passage.

TOWN TALK Several members of the Fifty-third Street Club were discussing the other day the relative progress of the Negro in Chicago and New York. "The Chicago Negro is a world-beater," remarked Mr. Beck. "He talks about it enough," sooily remarked a loyal Knickerbocker. "Why, if the Chicago Negroes were doing as much as the New York brethren, and talked about it proportionately, the white people of the Windy City would be forgotten." Dr James E. Cabiness, the Harlem dentist has fitted up his new office at 467 Lenox avenue in fine style. Dr Cabiness has made an enviable reputation as a surgeon dentist. Certain, the cigar manufacturer, reports that his trade is good, and is growing better each day. Madam Beck did a very wise thing in removing her famous dressmaking school to Fifty-third street if the increased number of students and patrons from morning, till night, and it is turning out better work than ever before. William bach pay. That was once the question. Rose's place in U.S. street answers the question. It is one of the busiest spots in Harlem. One of the prettiest places in busy Harlem is Joshua Tallarring establishment in Seventh avenue near 135th street. It makes a fine appearance. This was a time when the proprietors of them thought any kind of an old shack was good enough for a barbershop for colored men. It is different now, and as Dr Washington used to say, we were totally outraged instead of barbers and shops. Hurts in Fifty-third street, Williams' on Seventh avenue, Metuchen's in 135th street, Medrats in 37th street and several others, are first-class places for business, only receive burdens attention, but also hear folk-philosophy enough. Chief Taylor of the True Reformers, while feeling the need to the Grand Fountain, reports that the work in New York is progressing new members coming in steadily, and old members renewing John W. Sandlerin, the old reliable employment agency director, reports that since he moved his offices to Fifty-third street, business has increased fifty per cent. Mr Sandlerin has enjoyed unusual success in his business. After a while the responsible and successful business men of the Negro race in New York City will get big enough to organize a savings bank for the people, if they can't organize any other kind. As one get about among the people, that is enough for their inquiry, then wants to talk about their progress. The trouble will be in convincing the men that a bank can have but one president, and that while there may be assistants there is never more than one cashier. New York must have a bank-that's all. Dr. Charles H. Roberts, the 53d street dentist, has added still newer improvements to his elaborate offices. He has a big and important practice, and is the soul of courtesy. CONCERNING WOMEN Mrs Charles Banks, the charming wife of the Mississippi financier, recently underwent in operation for appendicitis at a Chicago hospital Mrs. Banks is rapidly improving, and expects to join her husband shortly. Lading in the work of rehabilitating the True Reformers, and holding the support of the people is Mrs Maggie Walker who is herself the executive head of another Reformer. Recently Mrs Walker turned one of her meetings in Richmond into a True Reformer rally. She acknowledges that the Reformers gave her the inspiration for her work. Miss Part I. Lampington a daughter of the late Rt Rev E W Lampington taking a prominent part in the work of the Women's Missionary Society of the A M F Church With Mrs H M Turner wife of Bishop Turner, she is visiting and addressing the officer of the Ursula district.

ADVERTISE IN THE AGE MUSIC AND THE STAGE EDITED BY LESTER A. WALTON. C. V. B. A. UNABLE TO JOIN UNION AT a meeting of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association held Tuesday evening, the invitation extended the association several days ago by the Actors' International Union to affiliate with the union as a labor body was rejected by a unanimous vote. While some of the members were inclined to consider the union's proposition favorably, they were fully aware that it would be out of keeping with the objects and purposes of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association to become a union labor organization, as the chief aim of the association is to look after its sick and bury its dead To show, however, that the association is not opposed to colored performers becoming connected with the union the members will be permitted to affiliate with the Actors' International Union as individuals. Those desirous of cooperating with the union, if permitted, will only represent themselves and in no manner the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association. The Letter Sending to the C. V. B. A. The following letter has been sent the Actors' International Union in reply to the one received some days ago. The Actors' International Union, 8 Union Square, City. Gentlemen, We beg to acknowledge the receipt of your kind letter of recent date, extending the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association an invitation to affiliate with your body. We hope you will pardon delay in answering, but we have been giving your proposition a great deal of consideration and have been given a conclusion relative to same at our regular meeting held this evening. We regret to inform you that despite the broadminded attitude you show with reference to color or creed, it will be impossible for the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association to affiliate with you as purely, as its name implies, a benevolent institution, whose principal objects are to take care of our sick members and, bury the deceased ones. We have made known to the members of the association, however, that those desiring to affiliate with your union as individuals are compelled to take care of colored performer and such as a representative of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association. Hoping you clearly understand the position, the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association is compelled to take in the matter, thanking you for your kindly consideration, and wishing you much success, we are most respectfully COLORED VAUDEVILLE BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION. Ben Leon Williams, Pro Per Leon Williams, Prea, Robert F Douge, Cor Secy' The Letter Forwarded by the Actors' Union. The Actors' International Union forwarded the following letter to the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association a short time ago: The Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association, $20 W 53d St., City Gentlemen—Several of your individual members have requested us to address you upon the question of organization and affiliation. As you may know, the Actors' International Union is the only organization of actors and actresses who are recognized by the American Federation of Labor and an affiliation to the Actors' International Union by your associates will give you not alone recognition but protection in all parts of the country. We recognize no race, class or creed, and can assure you if you desire to have one or more of our officers call upon you at one of your residence, that you may be in a position to ask any and all questions that you may desire, to fully understand the merits of an affiliation with the musicians, stage employees and all of them with whom you are surrounded in the theaters and backed by over two million members. You can readily see with such support what can be accomplished by having a charter of affiliation with the Actors' International Union, who are part and parcel of the American Federation of Labor and the National General labor bodies in this country. Trusting we may hear from you, we remain. Very truly yours. ACTORS INTERNATIONAL UNION Per Harry DeVaux Press Low Morton Seys' Action of C. V. B. A. Should Not Be Miscontrud. The action of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association last Tuesday evening in adversely considering the proposition submitted by the Actors' International Union to become a union labor body was about the only proper course that could have been pursued Contrary to the report in circulation, the C V B A is a benevolent organization and was not formed on similar lines as the White Rats. Just how a benevolent institution would profit by becoming a labor body is difficult to understand. In giving its members permission to affiliate with the union as individuals the association has exhibited rare judgment. The policy advocated by the Actors' International Union in admitting all to membership irrespective of race or creed is a sensible and intelligent doctrine and very likely to find favor with all Americans who believe in fair play and equal opportunity. The union should be highly commended by colored performers for the just principles enunciated by this influential labor body, and it is hoped that the failure of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association to accept the invitation extended to become a union organization will not be misconstrued WHERE THE SHOWS ARE HIS HONOR THE BARBER Youngs town, O, Nov 24 and 25, Mausfield, 20 Nashville, O, Nov 24 and 25, Mausfield, 20 BLACK TAILT CO Jennings, La, Nov 25, Crowley, 26, New Iberia, 27, Frank Hn, 28, Patterson, 29, Morgan City, 30 DOWN IN DIXIE MINSTRENS - Fort Smith Ark, 26, Carswells, 25, Rock, 29, Hot Springs, 28, Littie Rock, 29, Pine Huff, 28 RICHARDS AND PHINGLES MIN STREETS, Dawson, N.

A memorial service will be held at F Howard, chaplain of the association, and Rev W H Brooks, pastor of St Marks m E Church, will speak NEGRO ON THE STAGE IN the Green Book for December appears an interesting article which deals with "The Negro on the Stage." written by Bert A. Williams, leading comedian this season with the Follies of 1910. The article The public has been kind enough to grant me some slight recognition as an entertainer and a comedian. I may be permitted, therefore, to speak upon the of my people's relation to the stage. Without the slightest desire to exploit my own self, I am tempted to begin by quoting the generous compliment paid me by Booker T. Washington. It forms a kind of text to my object and that I was not written of my invalided partner, George Walker, rather than of me, for then I could mention it happily, without any appearance of valgory. At any rate, Mr Washington said—and I treasure his words. The best reason I can give for liking his quiet songs and humorous saying is that he has written to this some of the quality and philosophy of the Negro race." Other men of my own color have done the same. I am a successor, not an originator. The Negro has expressed himself upon the stage in a manner that is true to his racial inheritance. I am a known Negro players. I feel that in relation to our opportunities we have done well Our race has taken root upon this soil, after two hundred years of struggle upward we may be apart here, but not also, and I firmly believe that the American entertainment. The one new stage form which has been developed in this country is of plantation origin. I refer of course to minstrelsy. The only music that may be regarded as minstrelsy is the music of Winstrelsy is now firmly imbbeded in the American comic spirit, and syncopation or "rag-time," an African contribution, has tinged all the popular balladry of this generation. In dancing, too, we have been creative, witness the dance of the "stork-strap" used by every chorus. These are evidences that in the heterogeneous American personality, the Negro temperament has its part. When Dawakak underwent to express his own personality, did he not choose as one of his themes, with a foreigner's acute, unblessed perception, that sweet, plaintive Negro melody, "Swing Low, Sweet Charlot" The first symptoms of American individuality in the theatre were reflections of the darky's presence upon the audience. The darky's came to me to the theory that when a strange unassimilated element exists in a nation, it almost immediately finds it way to the stage in comic types, usually caricatured. So the first American comic role was the Negro—"Jim Crow" and his fellows. Then the impersonated came the Irishman and the Italian. The periods of these latter types may be located with chronological precision, and found to coincide with statistics of the maximum number of immigration for the respective races but the Negro an unassimilated element was persisted through the years without losing its identity. Munsterrelle and Near colleague to the late man. This was inevitable, my people have not found many opportunities to the critical profession. That we have nature's talent that we have nature's natural talent at least cannot be denied but with that talent limited to a few obscure theatres of dance balls of undisable reputation, it has no chance to expand recording to its promise. I may add that the white man who have interrupted our race in this manner has done us a great service. We have pressed to our humor and our sentiments and many of them McIntire and Heath to cite a modern example have been true antagonists. The honor roll of these players in fact is too long to present in such an article their work moreover has been fully worked out. Ministerrelle always a fertile field for the historian of the American stage. The Negro beginning as an actual performer in this country may be the Negro of 1820, which announces that "The African Company" will appear in "the theatre at No 1 Mercer street, in the rear of the First Milestone, Broadway, at 12 o'clock in Jerry," with an after-piece called "Obl or Three Fingered Jack"—rough fares. H. B. MARINELLA, Exclusive Agent. both of them. I have seen a reprint of this cartoon and was interested to observe that a namesake of mine, "Mr. Williams was in the cast. The birth of Negro melody in stage form is usually attributed to Gottlieb Grumper, a sailor called "The Guy Negro Bailer" in the Museum of Oceans in Boston, 1792. Anotherold-timer, to whom I must pay my respects, is Andrew Jackson Allen, born in New York in 1776. As a boy, he walked on the stage in "Romeo and Juliet" playing the page who carries to Henry W. He was dresser and valet to Henry W. who held him as a chattel slave. Thus, he was as a marvelous cook he wrote songs as well, and in 1815 produced an entertainment called "The Battle of Lake Champlain." One Negro, at least, has taken rank as an artist in serious drama, he was an Adriage, called "The African Rossoin." His career was so brilliant that I may be permitted to speak of it in detail. His father was the prince, or chief, of the Folah tribe in Senegal, on the west coast of Africa, and was brought this country by a missionary who saw that he had unusual mental endowments. The missionary was educated at Schenectady College, New York, and after marrying a woman of his own color, he returned to his own people, upon his patron's advice. Thus Iran Aldridge became a teacher in African tribe, but of cultured parents too, was sent to America for an education, studying at Schenectady as did his father. He planned to enter the ministry, but his tastes led him toward the theatre, into which he was born. He became a teacher in Henry Wallack, in New York City, made his debut at a private performance before an audience of colored people, playing Rolla in Pizarro" Eminent actors of the day encouraged his ambition, and so, being posed in England where he would not have to combat race prejudice In 1826 Aldridge appeared at the Royal Theatre, London, as Othello. He played in Great Britain for a number of tours during to all the important cities and the theatre. His repertory was extensive, including roles—many of which fitted his dark skin—in a number of tragedies such as the prince in "Oroonoko," dramatized by Thomas Southerne from the play by William Shakespeare. The Slave, Zanga in Dr Younga's "Revenge," Richard III, Zarambo and Alhambra. He even appeared in a translation of Schiller's "Flesco," receiving the praise of Sheridan at the play by William Shakespeare. At Belfast, Charles Kean thought it an honor to play lago to his Othello. Aldridge was versatile, and could turn from basic tragedy to roles commonly identified with the Negro temperament he was very successful as Mungo, an amusing African servant, in "The Paddle and the Opera (worsely) by Isaac Baldacci," best-selling author who which was originally produced at Bruns Lane in 1858. And in typical darky songs, such as "Jim Crow" and "Ginger Blue," he was always popular. The ballad chiefly identified with this phase of his talent was known as Possum in a Gum Tree." In 1859, the House of Representatives of San Francisco organized resolutions honoring Aldridge as a proof that the colored race was capable of culture and artistic achievement, and made him, in addition, a captain in the Dominguean army and alde-decamp extraordinary to the president of that Negro republic. In Douglas Jerrichol's Journal "The Newspaper," in 1861 he was called to the attention of London playgoers in the following fashion. Mr. Aldridge is gifted with an intelligence and perseverance a dignity of action, and a power of perseverance not only do honor to his particular profession, but also much feeling and appreciation of the author, and there is a force and vigor attiring and perfectly free from imitation or rant. He especially pots up the movement and natural dignity of movement. It is impossible for me to overlook the great Alexandre Dumas, who was a quidditch and bison, a greater dramatist than the father, who was an octooner, even though the genius of these men was typically French rather than African. Without searching further, I can only point to Sam Lucas, the first Nergro who ever played a leading part (Uncle Tom at the Boston Museum) with a white company in this country, the Rohde brothers, banistas, who taught royalty the use of the bannio in London, Chandler's minstrels a colored troupe taken to England by Haverley Hickel and Nergro who took in American children and young who were among the first Negro managers. Jim Blunt, a comedian and man who specially was writing Shakespeare at the Hon. Thomas White Elbidge, who has come part in the Bottle Warner with a white company and Pilly Kerndy. These were some of the Newcomers prominent in the stage during the 19th century, who will be included provided me many years in being featured with white companies. The Black Pattie Cole still has the marvellous quality, almost every season, she touches the South and the Central American countries at the head of her own company, Cole and Johnson, are a clear leader of the present music scene. Cole and myself did several seasons ago and their "Red Moon" is an example of their creative ability. J. Rosamund Johnson is a gifted composer, he and Cole who is a good lyrist, had much to do with Klaw and Erlanger's production of "Humpty Dumpty." These two men, by the way, wrote the one-popular Under the Hampton Tree, another explorer by Marcia Gillie. There, another first-class musical comedy production, there have been songs written and numbers composed by talented Negroes whose names never appeared on the programs.

Take Will Marlon Cook, for example. He is a blind musician, grown up from Othello and studied the violin under Joachim and harmony and counterpoint under Dvorak, and held the first chair in Strauss's Royal Orchestra in Berlin. The music to "Abyssinia" and "Bandana Land" was written by a lyric writer, who has given me some of my best songs, such as "Nobody" "Jonah Man" and "Belleve Me"—the latter being my song in "Folles of 1910" "Masfersonson, better know as the Cousin of Mine" and "Cousin of Mine" sung by Miss Cahill, Chris Smith, who wrote the music for that number. And there are others Howard Overwhelma Hampton Last Saturday Howard Varsity decisively defeated Hampton Institute by a score of 39 to 0. Fully 1,500 people witnessed this game. Washington so society was out in full array, in automobiles and cartingels colors of both red and white, in the department of the game. Hampton offered but poor reservation, although outloud in loudness and the game was one sided the Hampton boys of eight phloxes and not the last which they did they gave up making last one. Hampton did not have the ball in the thick, thick times during the game and not once did they make first down. Howard played with a dash that carried the ball off their foot making the first touchdown five minutes after play had begun. Hampton was on defense against backfield. Grays played a moody ward at right halfback consistently gaining ground crossing the ball 10 and 15 yards almost it will. He formed at most impregnable interference and was line on the defense. Terry proved him. The Tortellie and Hampton could not stop him through Hampton a line for long games. Howard a star quarter shown brilliantly everywhere. His generality was hard to beat and his quarterback runs were a feature of the game. The forward pass was tried twice during the game with long gains. Slaughter created a terrific attackfully. He played a hard game and times his playing was spectacular. Tygen, on left end played his usual hard game. Durrah and Bell at tackle played in a consistent game, stopping the veteran center, was everywhere Smith, the big guard, was seen in every play and more than once recovered fumbled balls.

Emerson, of the Walton Clubs' kindergarten, announces that an effort is being made to give colored children of small means an opportunity to receive instructions in music for a small sum at 202 West 63d street. Emerson tells of the project, to wait: "The Music School Settlement in East 3d street is the model we are trying to follow in a small way by offering lessons in piano, violin, mandolin, and chorus singing to those who read in earnest and show some talent, but are yet unable to pay for private lessons at 50 cents each. Our rates are ten, fifteen or twenty-five cents a lesson, according to age, and the teachers are very good at playing the orchestra instruments. Miss M. H. Stevens for the piano. Mrs. Loguen for the chorus, and Miss Emerson for sight singing. We are not trying to underbid private teachers, but are hoping to get talented poor from the hands of quacks. The sight singing and chorus is for all over sixteen years and Monday evenings from 8.30 to 10, ten cents a lesson. We expect to have our members able to go into the choral union. Our choir is quite large enough (ifty or more), be accepted as a branch of the People's Classes. The children's and instrumental lessons are on Wednesday afternoons from 3 to 6, and a later hour, 7-8. For the banjo and mandolin club, we offer a small start, as soon as the number warrants. "We shall devote Tuesday evenings to lessons for adults if enough apply." Phain-Robinson Marriage Miss Ethel E. Paine and Mr. Matthew P. Robinson were quietly married on Friday evening.

Last Sunday a great throng attended the corner stone laying of the Phillip's Church in Brooklyn. The church is the outgrowth of a mission which was started by Rev N.

As reported in The Age of last week Mr. Peterson will be the editor of the editor will employ only colored labor, a distinct departure from the usual practice of his church. The kind of courage and pride, how ever has won him a warm place in the hearts of the people. His friends freely proclaim that the coming years will find the Brooklyn St. Phillip's church were Rev Walter J. McLain and Rev R. W. Linton of Swark N. J. Many of the white clergy have shown a large interest in the work. Bishop Burges in living the corner stone dwell on the perseverance of the pastor, the discouragement of the teacher, was the time that Mr. Rodd came to him for encouragement and apparently received none. The refusal seemed to inspire THE NEW YORK AGE: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1910 REV. N. PETERSON BOYD him with renewed vigor and the determination to succeed that finally forced the Bishop to fall in line with the work Mr Boyd has been successful in building up 'The fact that this building is being put up by Negro mechanic James Baldwin the bishop of Bishop Burgesen 'It is an act worthy of the highest commendation. In this work I am glad to say that Mr Boyd practically begins the work and will finish it without leaving a penny in debt, so that the worshippers will not be burdened and can worship and enjoy the service free from financial worry. Of most will be made after its completion, which will probably be next summer. In the meantime the services will be conducted in the crypt beginning with Christmas week.

In the third relationship he himself and the laws of things, especially the physical laws, the body is strengthened in order that the mind may be guided, second, a man must ever remember to treat his neighbor as himself in order to be a good Christian, can be a strong man, an ideal man, unless he lives in the right relationship with God.

Nov. 22.—There was quite a division in the colored vote during the recent political campaign. Quite a number of colored people voted the Democratic ticket, but the majority voted the Republican, theubblicable Governor, and were largely instrumental in bringing about the election of the Republican candidate In Tennessee there is little difficulty in the way of any Negro voting provided he pays his poll tax and registers at the proper time and in the proper manner. Your correspondent did not hear of any case in the State where colored people were interfered with in their attempt to vote during the election. It is becoming more and more certain that if our people would take a little pains and comply with the law, which requires tion rate of our army as a whole was as that there would be little problem in Tennessee concerning the voting of Negroes. Y. M. C. A. BRANCH ON WEST SIDE. Special to The New York Age. Chicago, Ill. Nov. 22 — The colored people of Chicago have become deeply interested in the prospect of having a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association in the part of the city where the colored people largely dwell. The preliminary steps have been taken and temporary headquarters established on State street, near 44th street. The work is being carried on under the efficient leadership of Rev J E Moreland, who is one of the best equipped men in the country for this work. The plan is to put up a building at a cost of not less than $150,000. The need for such an institution has been felt in this city for a number of years and the even increasing number of young men who come here emphasize the need of some protective agency like the Young Men's Christian Association to conserve their moral and social interests. There is an encouraging outlook that the plans now on foot will be successfully carried out. A. Baltimore Marriage. Baltimore, Md. November 23. Prof James S.

Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Dr. A. L. E. Weeks and his wife are trying to do in this community the same thing I am trying to do and they are worthy of your support "This hearty recommendation of the founder and president of the Newbern (N.C.) College and the Institut Institute, was given by Booker T. Washington at Newbern on November the occasion of the visit the educator REV A. L. E. WEEKS made at Newbern as a part of his North Carolina tour. Dr. Washington would not have made that statement without first investigating the school and its influence on the life of the college. Dr. Weeks founded the Institute in 1902 against heavy odds, and also against heavy odds he has kept it open until now. It has been a redious struggle to do good work, so heavily handicapped by a lack of funds necessary to pay the buildings in full, and to erect suitable buildings in faculty, however, has stood loyalty by the faculty, sacrificed much that the school might live. The people of Newbern, white and colored, have contributed towards the schools maintenance, and seven hundred dollars have been given to two missionary societies in the North and South. Fund board. These donations, however, have suffice, and as a consequence the school is in debt. Rev Weeks is now seeking to raise $3,000 for immediate needs. The reputation and usefulness of the institution ought to insure this small and very recently a colored man donated twenty acres of land to be used in raising goodstuff for the boarding departments. The departments of the school are normal, academic, preparatory, and theological. The students have in large part come from the teaching profession in the county. This year at ready the enrollment is 158. Seventy of the number are teachers. More than 1000 students have attended the school since 1902. A school with a record like this should have but little trouble in raising money to carry on the work. Among the trustees are U S Senator Simmons, President Bryan of the Newbern National Bank, President Merseuse of Shaw University, Dr R S. MacArthur and Dr Henry L. Morehouse of New York.
