THE CITY OF LONDON A city in the capital of England, it is December 1, 1837. It is a city who is making the most productive city in this city has been named home in London, England, and the political, social and economic centre of the United States. The city has a special interest in the arts and has made it a point of the half representative citizens and no less, the churches the hospitals the social institutions and the homes of every class of people no more than the cosmopolitan capital of the na- Mr. Harker is a gentleman of the patient culture, easy of approach, an current seeker after the whole truth, and possesses a magnetic personality. He is one of England's most prominent political and economic writers, and is the author of "Great and Greater Britannia: the Modern German," "The British Isles of England," "British Soilism," and other works which are considered standard books and have have been published both in England and Americas. He had been told that the colored people played at science; that their doctors and lawyers were charlatans. He had been told that the people of the Negroes were the most intelligent, that the mulattoes had lost the privilege of the Negroes and had appalled all of the vices of the whites. "Have you met Dr. Booker T. Washburn, our representative asked Mr. Barclay," responded the noted Englishman, "have him him and spent several months available here, in his company, in your mind him one of the ablest and most intelligent men I have ever seen, to help him a needle. He has to find a needle, and eminently statistician views him, and the pleasure of hearing him speak at the dedication of the Science Museum Harvard University. His speech is the favorite speech I have ever heard, the best occasion. I think that the mulattoes, the greatest orator have heard. Mr. Binder T. Washington is truly man and he has the modesty of a great man. He is a credit to your wife and his life and work should be an invitation to every man, woman and kind of color. Praise of the most exquisite man, able to lift him because he is genuinly strong. Criticism, often unjustly insulted for, has not turned him in the upward and onward course his has marked out as correct. While there are indulging in complaints and other complaints, Booker T. Washington is putting face on solid ground. The truth will prove the wisdom of our countryside and bring him the opportunity to so easily accomplish it. I have also offered to own possessing a mental and physical improvement to people who have wholeheartedly imitated it. If your family will supply you the necessary material, it shall be in your possession to prepare their case prominently in the world. I am eager to get on with their work. I have given other persons his hardest hand and will accomplish that has brought upon them "name." I chose a researcher with a cultured man of color, instead to look into the race problem, "continued Mr. Barker, and I was perfectly smarter when I discovered how greatly the colored people have both labbed and traduced. I have spent a considerable amount of time with colored people and have met many who are highly cultivated. I have been able to understand some of the rules, customs and customs. I have been able to draw a number of your elementary, and higher, grade schools and colleges, and Howard University, and I have shared the earnestness and resolve determination with which your children try to improve their minds and to raise themselves. If your might schools I have found old men and women, former sisters, who are proud of being born to the humble of many colored people and I have found them cozy, comfortable, elegant and peopleled by happy and harmonious families. I have been struck by the enormous progress which the colored race has made. But a few years ago the colored race was living in the stone age; to day it has begun to live in the age of electricity. I made the acquaintance of some colored boys who had a wireless installation made of telephone lines, like the telephone line to one another, and the telephone line to another. I have looked I have found evidence of the most remarkable progress in culture, learning and prosperity. Having been over many of your institutions and through many of your homes, and having talked to many of your most prominent people, and to a college that there ought to be a bright future for the colored race, I have come to the conclusion that the race is oppressed and persecuted and very largely because it is not known. I have come to the conclusion that the race is oppressed and persecuted their views and their attitude if they could see what I have seen. "Therefore, I wish to take them over the road which I have traveled. If the colored people of the country are ready to help me, I am willing to put their case honestly and fearlessly, before the Father. For the sake of the institution of the colored people and, so to say, personally introduce the civilized world to the best among them. Representative Chinese Gather in Brooklyn and Celebrate Birthday of Deceased Many Eloquent Speeches. Never before did a more representative body of citizens gather to do honor to one living or dead of their race than the men who attended the banquet last Friday evening in honor of the birthday anniversary of Dr. Henry Highland Garnet, at the Imperial, 360 Fulton street, which was given under the auspices of the H. H. Garnet Republican Club. The gathering was wholly made up of colored professional and business men, citizens who hold public office, men in positions of trust, and those who are highly interested in the uplift of their race. That the men of different religious beliefs, of different political affiliations might share in the occasion to honor the memory of Garnet, who represented the citizens in race, committee of citizens who asked race, committee of citizens who asked race, committee of the club's committee, and as result, Republicans and Democrats, Protestants and Catholics vied with each other in making the occasion the most representative and successful affair in every way that he ever been given by colored men in this section of the country. The speeches were thoughtful and eloquent, and were listened to with marked attention throughout. The following menu was served: Boast Chicken an Crescent, Cranberry Bacon Lettuce and Tomatoes Batteries Neapolitan Ice Cream Cafe Cake Following were the toasts: Rev. W. R.

ON REDUCTION OF CRIME. Montgomery, Aka, December 28.—BOOKER T. W. Washington, principal of the Tuskegee Institute and Negroes, has sent an letter to the University of Alabama, stating that he is greatly interested in the Negro race in Alabama. He says that the Negro race in Alabama, where he lives, is your opinion, and that the Negro crime, which affects those strong drink hubs in making the Negro a criminal? Since the production of your position, you have a duty to describe the criminals you commit by the Negroes in your country, especially criminal assults murder and other serious offenses? The Saturday School which followed by J.W. Randall the morning service was well attended. Third store prices offered by the latter. The lesson was reviewed by the separate teacher, N./C., who joined tendent, S. W. Battie. At a skiff the last lecture was held. ATTENDANCE VERY LARGE Ideal Weather Brings Out Record-Breaking Crowds. Rev. Gilbert Preaches Forever to the Community. Christmas was doubly impressively celebrated in the colored churches in Greater New York. Falling on Sunday the sermons and music covered a wider range than would have been otherwise possible. No great amount of advertising of the various services were done this year, for the reason that the several churches felt that the Sunday crowds so common to the New York churches, and New York is really a church town, would wind out as usual. On both sides of the bridge, and in the Bronx, all the churches had large attendances. Sunday was an ideal day, and in addition to the regular church crowds, many non-going church people were attracted to the services. The churches in Fifty-third street and the old-time number of visitors, while the Hilderbrand church all services. The Brooklyn churches, always noted for crowded services, were, for the most part, overtaxed. Chief interest among Baptist people centered in the evening services at Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, where the distinguished preacher, Dr. Gilbert, after six years passorate, preached his farewell and appreciative audience. Dr. Gilbert the pastor of Harlem Tenn., to pastor the First Baptist Church. He goes against the expressed opposition of the members of Mt. Olivet for which he has done so much since he came here. The Mt. Olivet choir rendered special music all day and the several departments of the church had prepare special programs. Dr. Gilberse's seminary and touching Dr. Brooks the secular pastor of St. Mark's church preached both morning and evening to regular St. Mark's church and featured of both services. The choir of St. Mark's has wide reputation, and this reputation was sustained last Sunday. Dr. Ransom, the eloquent pastor of Bethel, preached, of course, to large audiences. The Christmas season increases his congregation but slightly, this congregation is always large. The Sunday School of Bethel observed the day with fitting exercises. St. Phillips Church in Harlem, Rev. H. C. Blahop, rector, was literally crowded at both services, and the music of the choir was away beyond the average. The rector preached in the morning, and the assistant rector, Mr. Daniel, preached at the evening services. St. Phillips has already begun to wield a sword in the church, and that is to say the pooled people of New York, the majority of whom live in that section. Union Baptist Church on "San Juan Hill" had special services all day, the Rev. George H. Simms, the pastor, leading in both services. The older people of the church had their regular service, while the younger, more impatient Paul, Morning Star, both. Baptist churches, held special services, while Pilgrim Church in West 46th street, had special music. This last named church gave a free Christmas dinner all day. In the Bronx St. David's Church had a special musical program in the evening under the direction of Leon Adgee, Dr. Cliffon, preached a special sermon. At St. Benedict's Church the most interesting celebration of the Catholic service was observed, the congregation crowded each of the attendees who organ at the celebration of the early Christmas mass at 4 o'clock a.m. The 4 o'clock mass is usually impressive, but the 8 o'clock mass is celebrated by Father O'Keefe. More than three hundred community were present at the early mass. The feature of the early morning mass was the singing of the Catholic hymn "Adesti fidela." At the conclusion of the early mass, the 7 and 8 o'clock Christmas mass followed. Father O'Mahoney was the celebrator. The solemn high mass, another impressive service, was held at 11 o'clock Father Burke, former rector of St. Benedicts, was the celebrant. The Benedict choir boys chanted special Christmas music for the occasion. The Christmas sermon at the solemn high mass was preached by Father O. Mahoney. The Christmas pictures were shown, several hymns were sung, followed by the sacrament. Down at Bethel A. M. E. Church the Christmas celebration was very interesting and impressive. The attendance was good at each of the services. The sermon on the "Nativity of Christ" was said the story that has grown up about Christ's nativity is neither a simple story, nor a starry planet, as well as the angelic host preaches the bible. Dr. Cliffon said that Christmas greetings aspiration to philanthropy which promises to make large donations to orphaned children. Down at Abyssinian Baptist Church Rev. S. Clayton, Power pastor of the church, attended many Christmas ceremonies at each of the churches. The attendance was large, all of the services. The Abyssinian church stained special Christmas music during the services. Negroes Among the Immigrants Aborted by the Closure of the Northern Boston District of Banking Company, Issue Statement.

Montgomery, of Mound Bayou, Discusses Subject with Whites Negroes Have kept Peace With the Ad- mancement Mode - Intelligent Witches and Blacks Working Harmoniously. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Jackson, Miss. December 27.—In his address delivered at the remission of the surviving members of the Mississippi Constitutional Convention of 1890, held in the State Senate chamber of Jackson recently, the Hon. Isaiah T. Montgomery, the only Negro member of that memorable convention, and the founder of Mound Bayou, told his hearers that the cry of the alarmist of Negro domination had proved to be purely mythical. In speaking on the subject—"Mississippi, Fast and Present," Mr. Montgomery said: "Mr. President and Gentlemen—It would seem proper that, as the single representative of a people so largely interested in the former work of this body, should say a few words on this anniversary occasion. "Undoubtedly there was never a time within the history of Mississippi when such a superlative select body of her highest citizens assembled to grapple with higher duties than those enunciated to the Convention laid a foundation for the first real helpful and hopeful work of real reconstruction, upon a continually broadening and enduring basis, called the State into harmony with her later States of the Union in seeking the highest and most ideals of civil self-government. Notwithstanding the many criticisms famished against the constitution (which is based mainly on methods of admin- istration), in tenure is fundamentally just a respect for the constitution and responsible with the operation of a world- renowned poet, expressed in the following quotation: There is a divinity that shapes uor ends, Rough her then as we may. The constitution brought order, the first law of the Creator out of chotic uncertainty, and gave peace to a con- dition of the people, softened the asperities of those troublous times, and by the light of progress and the wisdom born of experience we can see further born than was possible during the day of the convention. The complicated 'race question,' the problem of framing and adjusting practically and equitably, according to the constitutional theory of our national government; the relations between two races in the United States; the tabled association, which had occupied nearly two centuries in building—admittedly the most intricate ever decreed for adjudication by a civilized Christian people. In the day of the convention we could not easily determine that this grave question should be dismissed from politics for one or two generations. Divorced From Politics "Now, after twenty years, the mists and uncertainties enshrouding all human endeavor have sufficiently cleared away for us to begin to understand that this great problem has been providentially solved. We have been withstanding vociferous assertions to the contrary by many of the ablest minds of the day. "This great cause has passed up on appeal to the supreme high chancery court of public opinion, embracing not only the best and pureest ideals of our own broad land, dedicated and consecrated by the blood and brawn of all her peoples, irrespective of race, creed or color, but all over the civilized world, wherever the gospel of Christ, the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of munkind holds sway, yes, even in the Great Trinity Court of infinity, the white people of the South and the intelligent Christian Negroes of the South must begin to give answer in equity to this great cause. "The race question," as we have it in our sunny Southland, at the bar of the greatest forum of the world, and finally, in the court of the great white people of the South and the intelligent Christian Negroes of the South must begin to give answer in equity to this great cause. "The race question," as we have it in our sunny Southland, at the bar of the greatest forum of the world, and finally, in the court of the great white people of the South and the intelligent Christian Negroes of the South must begin to give answer in equity to this great cause. "I want to take advantage of this impressive occasion to say on behalf of my people that we believe political genius, inspired by patriotism, has written in the constitution of our country the highest hopes and aims of civil liberty, and assuredly dedicated it to the uplift and empowerment of our people, for a long period of time we were the brawn, the hands and the feet, while your people supplied the brains and energy in working out those ideals, but in time, under God's wise Providence, it has become our privilege to patriotically employ the mind and heart in cul MARKETING MARKETING IS THE CONCEPT OF CONNECTING MARKETS TO GENERATE EXCITEMENT AND INCREASE RESPONSE MARKETING IS THE CONCEPT OF CONNECTING MARKETS TO GENERATE EXCITEMENT AND INCREASE RESPONSE MARKETING IS THE CONCEPT OF CONNECTING MARKETS TO GENERATE EXCITEMENT AND INCREASE RESPONSE ISAIAH T. MONTGOMERY vating aspirations for higher service. "I laboring to perform this service we believe that whatsoever will conserve our permanent good will also conserve that of our white neighbor; and that whatsoever will conserve his lasting good will also conserve ours. "Faintly Trust the Larger Hope." "We believe that politics can do but little more for us than to consistently reaffirm the priceless and divinely inspired ideals already written, leaving the larger, more vital and intricate solutions to be worked out in the future. We believe that our whole people, guided by mutual faith and good will, and as a realization of the helpfulness each race may be to the other in fulfilling the highest destiny fixed by the Almighty Arbiter of all human affairs, are the most important sociating in the development of this fair land of ours the most progressive and the most backward people of the earth. "While conditions still lack much of being satisfactory, yet the twenty years elapsed since the adoption of the constitution of 1890 have brought marvelous progress to our great state. I have not had the time to trace statistics since the publication shows that our State revenues have more than doubled our capacity for educating and training the rising generations and for maintaining the humane institutions of the State. "Contrast the old capital with the new, the old efficiency with the new, the aggressive capital city with the Jackson that we saw in the days of the convention, and you may grasp an idea of the wonderful development that has transpired all over our State. And these three qualities of progress my people liberally shared. I have only been able to give casual thought to the subject; but it will suffice to say that in 1890 there was not a Negro bank in the State; now there are ten successfully managed, having an aggregate paid up capital of $100,000 and resources distributed about $150,000 annually. In 1890 our beneficial insurance and secret orders were collecting and distributing about $150,000 annually. At the present period they are collecting and disbursing $1,000,000 per year, besides maintaining fair reserves. We regularly established insurance company doing business on the same basis as the standard insurance corporations of the country. "Our people are the great agricultural mainstay of the State. They are beginning to respond favorably to the efforts of the United States agricultural department to promote improved methods of agriculture. While I am not prepared to accept the fact that we are well known that they have increased their holdings in farms and homes fully in keeping with their progress along financial and commercial lines. "Speaking more particularly of the marvelous progress in our State during the twenty years that have passed, it may not be out of place for me to recall that I came to the convention of 1890, an humble representative from a Negro community numbering a few hundred, who had two years previously settled in the county of Bolivar, the howl of prowling wolves was a familiar sound at nightfall and the yell of the agile panther was still commonly heard. "That community has now increased to over 2,800 people, a generation has grown up among them; two graded schools and a hall have public schools with large classrooms; of various denominations have respectable buildings and large membership. "The community owns over 30,000 acres of land, 30 per cent of which is improved with many neat homes and thriving farms. "The community sees season on favorable occasions their farm products have moved to market at the rate of forty to fifty thousand dollars per week, and on last Saturday the daily business of our local bank amounted to over $10,000, which sum probably exceeded the aggregate of all banks. "In conclusion I beg to quote a single paragraph from the remarks I had the honor of delivering before the convention: "I said to my distinguished colleagues on this memorable occasion: "When we need to construct a new heart with its imperishable attributes, for the great commonwealth of Mississippi. Shall it be true? Shall it be fixed firmly upon the great principles of truth, justice and equity? I believe that the consensus of enlightened public opinion that the great task was well performed.

Special to The New York Age. New Orleans, December 27.—Some very significant and interesting facts have been announced by the famous Charity hospital authorities for New Orleans. It has been given out there that the records kept in the hospital show that Negroes are seldom afflicted with the complaint known as acute alcoholism and that mulattoes are immune from delirium tremens. "Acute alcoholism" is a complaint that only whites suffer with according to statistics kept at this hospital, and since the physicians and surgeons have been required to note carefully the shade of all Negroes treated in the hospital, it has been discovered that mulattoes are immune from delirium tremens. This discovery has raised a question whether or not a cross between two races may produce a being immune from certain common afflictions. It is held by some that a cross between the white and Negroes may produce such a being, and the similarity of the Charity hospital to the characteristics to be a prevention of disease common to either race, it will perhaps do away with some of the prejudice against the Negro and in the same measure open to the human nature of the black man by those who have treated him as though he was less than humma. "Acute alcoholism" is a complaint that real decent people are ashamed to be known to have, on account of the deprivation and degradation which it exacts of its victims. It is gratifying to know that with all his fatals the ..ogro is seldom afflicted with this awful complaint, which has given so much pain, grief and sorrow and distress to the old man, and plunging to earn from such eminent ambitions that all lattos, who under the law in Louisiana, are regarded as Negroes and so treated, are immune from delirium tremens, a condition of body and mind that is so dreadful and that only whites ever get in the danger of, ABRANGING FOR CELEBRATION Negro Citizens to Honor Memory of Charles Summer—Two Big Meetings Have Been Arranged—St. James Pee Church and Bodela A. and St. E. Church to be Boones of Celebration. The colored people of the City of New York have arranged to celebrate the memory of Charles Summer in their own way. Meetings advertised in the daily press with a long string of whites vice-presidents, the colored people know nothing of. Since the anniversary of the birth of William Lloyd Garrison the Negroes of the City of New York have never failed to properly celebrate the memory of their benefactors. In the past they have chosen their own speakers and held their meetings in the centers of colored population and put forward their own men and women as representative of the advancement of the race since the work of those who did no much for their freedom. Two meetings have been arranged for the Summer celebration. The first will take place at St James Presbyterian Church 51st street, near Ninth avenue, on Friday evening, January 6 and Lt. Col. Robert O'Neill of New York will charge of this meeting. The orator will be Roscoe Conkling Simmons. The other Summer celebration will be held at Bethel A. M. E. Church Sunday January 8. In the afternoon Dr. W. L. Bulkley will preside. John Hayes Hollies, pastor of the Church of the Messiah, will speak. The church chair is musician. In the singing speakers will be Counselor J. I. Curtis, Dr Reverdy C. Ransom, mrs. Francis Keyser, and Hon. Charles W. Anderson. A special program will be rendered. This promises to be a great gathering. These meetings are the meetings that the progressive colored people of New York have arranged. Usually the public meets in the city, and the meetings from all indications it will be just as appreciative of the Summer celebration. The pastor on, 'Sunday morning preached his sermon, The Birth of Christ,' to a good congregation. Rev. Newkirk preached at 8 P.M. or "Death in the Pot" to a large gathering. The pastor handled his sermon in an excellent manner. Among the visitors were Rev. Baboock from Union and friends of Mrs. Newkirk from Union Baptist Church. Union Baptist Church. St. Mark's Church Rev. Brooks appeared at his best both morning and evening. His subject was "God's Gift to the World." Just of his own Jesus Christ, which was the best and only lasting gift the world has ever had. Paul's life was not only a full life; but also a life that is worth while is not only a full life but an overdowling life. The greatest need of the world to-day is more than God's Christmas gift. He filled the entire world with His glory, but the dimness of our vision through lack of faith often prevents us from beholding his glory. God's Christmas gift to the world. These were the preacher's thoughts. Why not accept Him to-day? At the close of his retirement, we should accept of the greatest of all gifts. In the evening Dr. Brooks preached from Praisms 116.8: "What shall I render to God for all His goodness to me?" He carelessly entreated his hearers to ask themselves the question; then answer himself. He gave God in exchange His Son Jesus Christ. Both sermons were masterly presentations of the Word. The choir made a record of which it truly proud. While listening to their well-trained voices you could easily imagine that you were no longer in old earth. At that time, "Alleluia Forth," Mrs. M. Ransall solstitial; "There were shephards," solstitial Mrs. H. Parker; "Deum in F," Quartet, Mrs. H. Parker, Mrs. J. Fenwick, Amos Gucarautt.

Many a heart was made glad when the Christmas boxes that Dr. Sumner and Mrs. Fannie Keyser would be gathering a few pennies to remember the older members of the church and others who had few, if any, to remember them, and the poor among them. It was a little token to show them that they had not been forgotten, for they have carried old Bethel along in the Jehovah's Christmas day the services were garrulous all day. Dr. Ramson filled the pulpit both morning and evening. In the morning he spoke upon St. Luke, and an order of St. Luke's society was present. At 6 o'clock the Allen C. H. gave an excellent program.

He illustrated the point by saying that when men are victorious they do not about but cry, but when they are victorious they about the cry of victory. At the Sunday School exercises the Sunday School pupils rehearsed for the most recent session and the Sunday Leonard is the Sunday School choir. At the Vesper service last Sunday Dr. Butler continued his series of sermons, preaching on "Thoughts Preceding the Coming". Last Sunday morning THE AOB correspondent asked Dr. Butler about the rumor of his resignation. Dr. Butler was not ready to make a statement, but promises to a fuller interview in the near future. St. James is preparing for the big Summer meeting, when the Literary League will render the program. January 6 is the date. Col. Broscoe Simmons will be the octor. St. Benedict, the Moor The Vesper service at St. Benedict was an unusual interest. It was a religious service with a sermon by Father O'Keefe. Next Sunday the most impressive Catholic Mass will be celebrated. It will begin at 4 o'clock and conclude with the 11 o'clock High Mass. White Men in Jail Austin, Tex. December 20 —Eight white men charged with the murdering of 20 Negroes at Slocum, Texa., are now undergoing trial, and the indications points to their conviction. A num- ber of these men have been in jail ever since the lynching, as they were not able to give bail. Negro Academy Meeting. Washington, D. C. December 21 —The fourteenth annual meeting of the American Negro Academy will be held Friday evening of next week at the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church. The session this year will be devoted to exercises commensurate of those manifestations of the birth of Charles Sumner. Among those on the program are Archibald H. Grimke, president of the Academy; Prof. Kelly Miller and Justice Wendel Phillips Stadford. Dr. Washington is in his natural zone, and there is no strain for him to make his way among the civilized people of the entire world. His good mania has gone to the "four cornows of the church," a narrow-minded persons of the black race cannot hinder his dwarf marche to do the work that many of the churches have failed to do. Another great blessing is that Dr. Washington does not get the money from the colored people, but he educates every ope that keeps the truth of the situation. Through the situation, and the sooner that portion of the race that seem to mistake every good thing that is being done for them, admit that Dr. Washington is doing the work that is needed, the sooner the race will be better organized for the general good. The Nations Association, in fact, it is absurd for anyone to say that Dr. Washington has ever taught that we are satisfied with the present conditions of the race. Yours truly, C. D. COOLEY.

Martin M. Boall, an American and a member officer, is reported to have been killed during the fighting. Dominican troops were despatched on Board the American stealthship Displosion. It is reported that the Haytian Minister has advised his government to withdraw its rtoops from the border. It is the general belief in Santo Domingo that the dispute will be settled without further show of battle force. The two governments have been negotiating the same time for an adjustment to the border dispute, which is one of the standing. Haytil occupies a considerable territory claimed by Santo Domingo. The Haitian Government has time ago granted certain concessions in the contested zone to Americans, and this led to a demand by Santo Domingo for settlement of the dispute by arbitration.

Waltham, Md., December 28.—The West establishment, which is designed to prevent con- trol people from residing in street areas, has been established with white, has relied within a week of its be- come new.

The white neigh- borhood, the block, complained to the police and authorities for the arrests of the tenant and tenants were issued yesterday. The assistance provides property of $100 in any way connected with its violation. The arrests will mean that the reacquaint- ance has been sent to the courts for final adjudication. While but few white people have been outspoken in their his- tory to the law, there is some unanticipated property owners and real estate desi- ners. City Councilman Harry Cummings and other prominent colored citizens are take a test case to the Supreme Court. Bishop James A. Handy of the African Methodist Church is at that Thursday.

Washington, head of the well-known Industrial School for Negroes, located at this place, has formulated plans for the establishment of an international conference at Tuskegee of all persons in Europe or America who are directly or indirectly interested in the education and improvement of the Negro peoples of Africa. The purpose of this conference will be to discuss colonial and racial questions, but more particularly those who, either missionaries, teachers or government officials are actually engaged in any way in practical and constructive work which seeks to build up Africa's educating and improving the character and condition of the native peoples. This conference will meet at Tuskegee about the middle of January, 1912. Its purpose will be to get from the people who are on the ground a clearer and more definite notion of the actual problems involved in the reorganization, enable those who are engaged in work in Africa to see for themselves what is being done at Tuskegee in the way of educating black men, and to enable them to decide for themselves to what extent the methods employed at the Tuskegee school can be used to advantage in Africa. The number of years past missionaries from all parts of the world have been coming in increasing numbers to visit and study the methods of the Tuskegee Institute, and it is believed that this conference will prove a welcome opportunity to many others to do the same. It is expected that a permanent organization of "The Friends of Africa" may be effected as a result of the work in organizing, assisting in organizing, stimulating and directing the work of education and civilization in the Dark Continent.

Hears are also disturbed over the disposition of the President, who 1s a Republican, elected to his office as a Republican, and Believes in the principles of his party, to confer high favors’ upon those who ‘opposed his elevation, and who have Heagued off their calling, and set their ‘mark, by opposing, often with violence the principles that have always been as- sociated with the Republican Party.

There is none of bitterness, which doesn’t pay. ‘Tar Act offers no apology for its Republicanism, neither does it offer any for its opposition to what we call the Democratic party But we are moved at least to contemplation before observa- tions so wise and strong as this from the able Charleston (W.

He never said a truer thing than this, that if the American people persisted in lynching Negroes they would soon get into the habit of Iynching white men. Tue Ace desires to reply to Mr Washington. Whenever the American people get into the habit of lynching white men the practice of lynching any- body will be broken up, 1 to do that overturns the government — Lynching was invented for colored men, not for white men Compliments of the season to the At- lonto Independent!

When WILL Come the Long-Promised Peace? And When the Good Will to Men?—Nations Still Making Unprecedented Preparations For War. CHATTANOO GAM, Tenn. Dec. Sixth—Pastor Russell Tabernacle preach- d here today in the afternoon on The Great Here- after," and in the foreground from the text below quoted. On both occasions his audiences sat spellbound for a more severe time than the majority have been in the habit of listening to a comet. Deep eagerness was also manifested to receive from the usheres of the close free copies of Pastor Russer's Booklet on "What Say the Scriptures About Hall?" The speaker said: "Highness centuries and more have been since Israel's greatest Prophet, Jesus, and forth his message of reconciliation to God. At the time of his arrest, visited visitors, announcing him, that his birth signified the end of the world, which he to be remembered and that this would mean earth and good will amongst Israel (Luke 11, 10, 11). Yet after centuries, centuries these prophecies are still fulfilled. We find the world in warlike condition at present than ever before. Europe has a standing army of over a million of the picked men of its several nations. And even our own country has deemed it necessary to considerably increase its standing army. On every sea we are great battleships requiring thousands of men and millions of dollars for their upkeep, not to mention the millions of dollars which they originally cost. And still more war vessels are planned with greater guns, some of which expend thousands of dollars for powder and shells for even one day's target practice. It is safe to say, too, that the chief interest in and chief backing of recent experiments in naval navigation come from the War Departments of Christendom, which too in such devices a new method of torpedoing ships is that a new torpedo has recently been invented more powerful, more destructive, more terrible, than any previous device. What means this great battle hryr, this preparation for a great struggle between the nations? Why do not the nations disband their armies and disband their navies and turn these wast energies to human profit, to making the earth to blossom as the rose? The answer is—Sin. Sin marred the original God-likeness of love in the human heart and, instead, implanted the opposite disposition of selfishness. By morbidity sin and selfishness have permeated our race. As we read, "Beheld we was in iniquity, in alia another conceive me (Psalm 116). This truth here we have. We glop the surface. We make a show of giving a little money to the education of the heathen. We make a little show of religious activity in Christendom, but the great surplus of wealth is spent in self-gratification—alcoholic beverages alone consume the manyfold the amount dotted out to insolvent enterprises of all kinds Peace, Peace; but No Peace. For centuries the world has been crying out, "Pence, Peace, yet there is no peace," but still greater preparation for war. Why? Because, despite our gloss of civilization, the world well known its own selfishness, its own greed, its own thirst for power and its wisely reasons that in others selfishness and good similarity rule. Hence, with all their protestations of friendship all the governments of the world distrust, dislike one another. And now we have reached a place where the disbanding of the armies of the world would be a dangerous matter. Another million of the labor market, already gluttonous and damnous, must to leave our cities unprotected would invite anarchy in every land. We are not endorsing to discourage game conferences and federations. We are merely calling attention to facts—unacceptable facts. The Scriptures graphically describe the present condition. They give us a great painting of what is now going on, saying, "Beat your plow shares into graves and your pruning books into graves. Let the weak boast that they are strong" and endeavor to keep pace with the strong. "Come, get ye down in the Valley of Jehoshaphat"—the valle of death—the place of the great angel with which the reign of the place of Darkness shall terminate and which will prepare the way for Meaek and Kingdom Goel III. 9-13. Thank God for the assurances of his word that the great "time of trouble, such as better was since there was a nation," which is about to burst upon the world, whose masses are better educated than ever before and trained the use of all military equipments, will be but a short struggle! The initiation of the Scriptures is that if these days should not be shortened, such would survive. But for the sake alike-by virtue of the Kingdom of Israel elect being established--those days shall be shortened. Then will ensure the reign of the Prince of Peace Here, we see the prologue scene, as well as the same scene. Believes who had been the king, and every tongue confessed. The king, desirous of righteousness will be a King, desirous of peace, notwithstanding the fact that it will be asked in by such a time of trouble. "I Came Not to Send Peace." But do the Scriptures contradict themselves? What did the Great Teacher mean when he declared, "I came not to send peace on the earth, but a sword?" Matthew x. 24.) All he prophetically to the effect which his gracious message of love and favor would produce in the world during the reign of sin. He well knew that the Prince of Darkness would oppose all of his followers, as well as himself. He foretold that whoever would live godly would suffer persecution—and so it became. Eighten centuries have proven it! He sent forth his followers, like himself, unarmed, to be peacemakers, to be helpers, to "follow peace with all men and holiness, without no man shall see the Lord." He counseled his followers, "He that taketh the sword shall perish by the sword." But their message of peace and love and the coming Kingdom which shall bless the whole world and fulfill the angelic prophecy of our text—these things seem to anger the world—not merely the vicious, the ungody, but the worldly professors of godliness who have schemes and plans and theories of their own to work out which are contrary to the Gospel Message. The darkness, more or less mixed with selfharm, hates the light, the Truth, the love of God, neither cometh to the light, lest its deeds of darkness, selfharm, selfish ambition and hypocrisy should be made manifest. The Master knew what the effects of his Gospel Message would be in the world and that only those who would compromise his Message could possibly live at peace—that all who would be loyal and faithful to him would be traduced, slandered, persecuted—"beheaded," either literally or figuratively. His words, therefore, were a prophecy respecting the tribulations which all his footstep followers would surely have. But more than this, his words were a prophecy respecting the nations. What is it that has brought us to our present degree of civilized savagery? What is it that makes of every business corporation a buccaneer seeking the treasure of the financial craft? What is it that has thus sharpened the wits of humanity to such an extent that the majority find it difficult to be honest, because they see so many opportunities for dishonesty, while it is impossible for law makers to make new laws with sufficient rapidity to keep pace with the in intelligent methods of circumvention. The laws, doctrines, of Christ are, in a certain sense, responsible for all this. The liberty wherewith Christ makes free his followers and the light which he and they let shine upon a darkened world, received in part into unscientific hearts and minds, have given wisdom that, misapplied, we call cunning and craft. The proof of what we say is found in the fact that other nations have reflected light of Christianity, and still quite in the background. Only now, as Christian civilization in a perverted form is teaching these peoples are they awakening and becoming competitors with so called Christendom. In our advanced conceptions of finance, warfare etc., a pertinent question worths of deep thought, is. Will it be possible to live in the world at all after the greatest financial minds shall have "must trust" all of the world's bustiness, and after the labor organizations shall have had their say as to who shall and who shall not earn a living, and after the teeming millions of China and Japan shall have become thoroughly civilized and Christianized after the nominal sort? Would not the borders of the comma overwhelm the comma perfectly little bit more America? What is the prospect of the fulfillment of the prophecy of our text "Peace on earth, good will toward men"? There is no prospect from the earthly sources toward which we have been looking. If that prophecy is ever to be fulfilled it must be by some Divine intervention in human affairs. The Desire of All Nations Coming. The Death of All Nations Coming. Notwithstanding the eighteen centuries of delay our text as a prophecy will surely be fulfilled, and be fulfilled, too, by and through the One whom the angels announced and whose birth is very generally celebrated today. The Great Teacher, questioned by Pillate, answered that he was born to be a King—King of the Jews; but he was adored, "My Kingdom this Alms." How true! Many of us have gotten the wrong impression—that our Redeemer has been waging, as the Great King of Glory, an unsuccessful warfare for eighteen centuries against Satan, sin and death. But here we learn from the Great Teacher's own lips that his Kingdom is not of this Age. It belongs to the "world to come"—the Age to come. Do we inquire, then, who has been the ruler of this world, this Age? The answer of the Master is that Satan is the Prince of this world. He is an usurper. The dominion of earth was given to man. But Satan, deceiving our race, putting darkness for light, has become thereby the real ruler, using humanity merely as his tools. He is styled "the god of this world," and the "Prince of this world," or age. And we are fearful of the empires, the hearts of the children of disobedience. When we reflect how many of humanity are disobedient, we see the vastness of the empire controlled by the Prince of darkness. And when we see the few, comparatively, who are soldiers of the cross and followers of the Lamb we perceive that, as the Master Correspondence that is sent to this office written on both sides of the paper will not be printed—Bill. with his following during this age is to be a "little rock." Purpled and confused many may ask. What then, is the hope of the fulfillment of our text, "Tesco on earth, good will toward men?" We answer that our Master, who declared that he was not the Prince of this age, declared also that his Kingdom of the next age will be introduced with power and great glory and that, although its initial manifestation will be with clouds and darkness and with some of trouble he bore, he has been trifecta his reign will be with horious, trifecta and eternal, he shall take unto himself his great power and reign" until "he shall have put all enemies under his feet;" the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. "Uto him every knee shall bow and every tongue confess." The victory of Emanuel means the overthrow of sin—the crushing of the scorpent's head. At the very beginning of his glorious reign Satan shall be bound and following its close be shall be destroyed in the Second Death, together with all those who love unrightnessness, after they shall have had full knowledge and full opportunity for recovery from the snarees of sin and death. Then, indeed, the whole world will proclaim the glory of God. There will no longer be discordant sounds. As the Scriptures declare. There shall be no more crying, no more sighing, no more dying—all the former things of sin and death shall have passed away (Rev. xx. 41) The Great Restorer of All. The great King who, eighteen centuries ago, died, the Just for the unjust, that he might, judicially, bring mankind back into harmony with God, is to be the Great King of earth, the great Restorer of all that was lost in Adam, and he will make all things new" (Revelation xi. 5). Everything appertaining to this great Plan of Salvation outlined in the Word of God is reasonable. The crucial testing of the elect Church is necessary in order that, as faithful and merciful priests of God and of Christ, associated with him in his kingly glory, they may be God's instrumentality in succoring mankind from the fallen conditions which have resulted from six thousand years of sin, and from the malignant influence of the Prince of darkness, during the thousand years which the Bible stipulates as the period of Messiah's reign (Revelation xx. to a period neither too long nor too short in which to accomplish the great work of the world's salvation, True, some one might say If it has required eighteen centuries for the development of the Church, how much more time will be necessary for the uplifting of the world? But we answer that it is not the Divine Purpose to uplift the world to the station of spirit nature and glory, but rather to restitution blessings and conditions. We have offered to the Church that such crucial testsings of sacrificial obedience even unto death is required. With the Prince of darkness bound and the Sun of Righteousness arising with healing in its beams the darkness of sin and crime and sorrow will soon flee away One century of such blessed influence upon the world will surely work wonders, bringing in also inventions and comforts and blessings, as yet undreamed of. Next will come the gradual awakening of all who have fallen asleep in death. They will come forth from the prison house of death, as the Scriptures declare, will come forth that they may be made acquainted with the true God and with his glorious Son the Redeemer and with the principles of righteousness in contrast with the principles of sin. We cannot suppose that it will require the majority of men under those conditions, to sit long counting the value of the blessings of eternal life and restitution proffered them. The upward move, resurrection, uplifting, regeneration, will go rapidly on, while meantime, generation after generation shall come forth from the tomb and enjoy similar experiences. Finally all shall have come forth, because the love of God made this provision through the death of our Deeperem, who delighted to do the Father's will and who has already been rewarded gloriously with high exaltation to the divine plane of glory, honor and immortality Geed Will Amongst Men. The attainment of the condition of good will amongst men will mean the attainment of human perfection. God is Love. And when our first parents were created an earthly image of God, love must have been the predominant quality of their characters. What we see of selflessness is largely a matter of heredity, and all of life's customs are in line with it and continually increasing its weight and its hold upon us. But with the new King and the new glofnessiness will come the glorified, fifteenth-century Gradually, during the thousand years of Messiah's domination of the world, the evile of selflessness will be made apparent and the beauties of beliness and love will be shown in contrast. Restitution rewards will lift all the willing and obedient up out of sin and selflessness to holiness and love. Then with love the very essence of man's being, good will towards men will every where prevail, because the Divine law almost effaced through the reign of sin, will be rewritten in the human constitution. That Law, as we know, is, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy mind with all thy strength, and thy neigh bor as thyself." Finally dear friends, how glad we are that this is true; how glad we are that the terrible falsehoods palmed off on us during the Dark Ages respecting a God of hatred and a hell of torture everlasting are not true!

Thursday afternoon we met the annual election of officers of the W. Lymosum was held at the church. The election was interesting and spirited, but there was a marked absence of the slaves that have broadly accompanied the election. Rev. Brooks, the pastor, presided. The candidates for president were: John E. Robinson, editor of The Advocate and Counsellor Wilfred A. Smith, the chief backer of Robinson was George Young, while Mr. Smith's sponsor was the old wheel horse, W. T. E. Richardson, the counsellor, whose ten votes being necessary to a choice. On the first and second ballots the vote was thirteen to twelve in favor of Robinson, and the second vote was sixteen to nine in favor of Robinson. Mr. Robinson is a former president of the Loyceum, and his elec- tion is one of the most progressive presidents the organization ever had. The other officers elected are as follows. H. J. Semilacr, vice-president; H. J. Richardson, secretary; Harold J. Moore, corresponding secretary; Charles Williams, treasurer; Miss Edith Leonard, critic; E. N. Broadnax, chaplain; William T. R. Bradnax, treasurer; Walter A. Handy, executive board. Dr. Brooks announced at the end of the second ballot that he expected to stay all night unless the election was retained in Mr. Richardson's office, as agreed to the board for the fifteenth year. N. Loyd Gilbert Licensed. Last Friday evening a large gathering of members of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church assembled in the church of St. Lloyd Gilbert, the third child of Dr. M. W. Gilbert. Many of the young people, who are friends of young Mr. Gilbert, are invited to the effort as a preacher. He can afford profound impression upon the large assemblage, and the church with rare enthalism and with unanticipation, voted to present of these exercises Dr. Gilbert opened the covenant meeting, and every soul who spoke during the evening referrer to the covenant meeting, and livered by the pastor's son, and at the conclusion of the service a large number came up to congratulate the occasion. One of the most delightful features of the evening was the presentation to the young licensed preacher of the longest brother of Master Ralph Mark Gilbert, one of the Royal Bible Fand. Master Ralph is only 11 years old, but made a splendid impropmtu speech which was greeted with unanimous applause by the congregation. Buffalo Briefs Mr. W. H. Talbert, who has been spending the past month in St. Paul, Minn., has been appointed to the board of Mr. W. H. Handy, has returned home. Herbert Dowling has been appointed miller of the city of York, with headquarters at Buffalo, at a salary of $1,500 per year.

Secton, of Lotha avenue, made a flying trip to Weekesham this week. Mr. W. H. Secton, of Lotha avenue, has left for New York City, where he expects to make his future home.

With considerable regularity of late reports have been reaching THe Ace office of the plight in which some of our colored Thespians have found them- selves after signing contracts to appear in vaudeville abroad for a year or more In almost every instance the performer has found himself thousands of miles away from home and with a bundle of contracts as sisceptible to breakage as Dresden china Although the elasticity of the ordinary foreign contract 1s weil known to our performers, yet many of them, upon going abroad (possibly through force of habit), attach their signatures to the contracts presénted them in about the game manner in which they perform such an apparently onerous duty to ap- pear at our theatres in this country— ‘sign their names to contracts without much scrutiny—trusting to luck that everything will work ont favorably in the end Many of our performers have a habit ‘of hurriedly making contracts, seldom in- westigating closAy the contents contained therein. Later when they discover some- _thing embodied in the document not to their liking they grow highly indignant and become contract-breakers. The proper thing to do is carefully read your contracts before signing, which would avoid no little inconvenience to all con- cerned. But returning to the performer who hastily makes a contract to appear in vaudeville abroad. With him it 1s usual- ly a case of sign in haste, repent at ers | ure, and many leisure moments does he have on his hands—and far. far away from home, too Colored performers should remember that colored acts are no Jonger novelties, unless possessing novel features other than from the standpoint of color. There was a time when a! mediocre act made a big hit because the performers were colored, but no longer is a dark-skinned vaudevillian a farity in Europe. So, do not be led into precipitately ! sdiging contracts for the other side and tall across the ocean building air castles as you float about how you are going rto startle the natives.

To meet this difficuly the first classes ta instruction are to be opened dunng the first of the coming year ‘Classes for instruction in cooking and eral housekeeping will be started at Se “church on Tuesday and Thursday, Janwary 3 and 5, from 3to4p m.

Those who have servants in their Bomes, who attend these classes, will be compensated for the time lost from work by the improved service they will re- ceive when their servants are better trained: If the days set for the classes do not suit a majority of those desiring to attend, all necessary changes will be made. ‘As there is a heavy expense incurred in carrying forward this work, the pastor of the church, C_M_ Tanner, ts soliciting, aid to make this move to better condi- tions an assured success Should help be found it is the intention of the promoters of the labor exchange to convert the old church building, which adjoins the pres- ext structure, into an. industrial annex.
