OUTHERN VIEW OF RACE ISSUE noke Times Publishes an Editorial on "Negroes and Negroes" Books That Southern Negro Displays More Good Humor Than Some Northern Negroes CITIES RECENT APPEAL ABROAD The Whole Purpose of Signers Was To Vent Their Hate Against the White Man Everywhere. pardal to THE NEW YORK ACK. Omanoke, V. I. Jan. 10 An editorial was published on January 6 by the Omanoke Times, a prominent white daily, "Negroes and Negroes," which has attracted no little attention in the South, which a contrast is made of a class of Negroes in the South and another class in the North. It is charged that while in the South the Negroes of that section display good humor, there is a certain class in the North who seek to regender race antipathy. Reference is made to the recent appeal to Europe of aggrudled Negroes for outside interference. The editorial: At the North is a class of Negroes to seem to be always in a passion, anion sour and quarrelsome and anxious make discord. They are in sharp contrast to the vast majority of our eastern Negroes who almost always enjoy good humor, ready to laugh at the opportunity and always among the men and foremost to enjoy whatever may go on. The curious part is that like the happy Negro at the South as rule is poor, and sometimes, poor fell, very poor, the fussy and ill-fitted and snarling Negro at the North recently is rich, as we count wealth this part of the country, and the other he gets the more discontented he must be. Our explanation of it is those at the North have social associations. They are not satisfied to assuice with their own race, but try to mix with the rich and well to do white people. Being turned down, they turn bitch and proceed to try to make everybody else so, to throw a spider into every dumping, to disturb every movement toward peace and pleasure. They must continually over the wrongs of the Southern Negro, concern themselves more about him than he is concerned about himself. Like mendarties using lightened matches to a broom maker mendarties to a broom maker and into the South lines of inflammatory literature and speeches, urging the southern Negro to all kinds of desperate deeds, trying to unite him to make suitable for himself and his white neighbe alike, while they carefully keep safe distance and watch that their skins are kept whole. They attempt to play John Brown, lacking John Brown's courage and readiness to take himself the chances to which he had others. Fortunately the South Negro has too much sense to be bled by any such people, gives them attention and goes on quietly about business. Booker Washington is a citizen we are under observation. He seems all too good to be true, and we never got quite ready to endure him. Yet so long as he seems to be to do good and help his race, we had to do all we can to encourage and help him. A man like that, when I know nothing against him but feel doubtful enough not to be able to with full enthusiasm, we do not it. It is much better to give a man a kick on suspicion that he is all right, a kick on suspicion that he may be worse. Washington recently gave the encouraging reports of the condition and progress of the Negroes in the south and of the improved relations between them and the white people. These are published abroad. Abernethy the Northern Negroes had sent and sent through Europe a declaration of Washington and his work and assertions. Every line of their declaration or whatever it may be, be kept in a sermon and bristling with vindictiveness. They denounce most fully all the white people of this country. They say the Negro race has been betrayed and deserted, is oppressed, trodden in every way activated, and they invite the aid of civilization of the world to recapture means not indicated. We overwrite the signatures that of ex-Alder Morgan, of Cambridge, Mass. Currently these people care nothing how much they may cripple Washougain and his work for their race, how harm they may do their race in South, how much strife and trouble may cause. Their whole purpose is to be to vent their hate against the man everywhere. Why, feel, they do, they refuse to leave back to Africa and join them. selves to those Maggies there who are supposed to be free and happy under their own associations and management, we do not know. The Northern Negro of that kind used to be a danger. A good many specimens came South to aid in reconstruction work. They were the most degraded villainous and corrupt of all the carpet-haggagers. Driven from here, and preaching incendiary doctrines at the North, they continued to be dangers. Presently they relapsed into nuisances. Now they do not attain even to the dignity of an annoyance. But they continue to try to do harm. The Southern Negro usually is so free from malice and these people are so full of it that the difference is striking. NEGRO AVIATOR Charles Ward Chappelle Invents Aeroplane Which Attracts Attention—Model Was on Exhibition at First Industrial Aero Show, Held at Grand Central Palace. One of the models on exhibition to occasion general interest at the First Industrial Aero Show, which was held in conjunction with the International Automobile Show at Grand Central Palace, from December 31 to January 7, was that of Charles Ward Chappelle, a Negro, who lives in Brooklyn. Mr. Chappelle was the only colored aviator to participate in the exhibition. Mr. Chappelle has invented an aeroplane which has attracted attention because of its unusual features. It is especially equipped with safety devices for CHARLES S. WARD CHAPPELLE long distance flights. The model will be put on exhibition at the headquarters of the United States Aeronautical Reserve, 53 Fifth avenue. Charles Ward Chappelle was born in Eatonton, Ga, in 1872, but lived the greater part of his time in Atlanta until 1897, when he moved to Pittsburgh. A year ago he became a resident of Brooklyn. Mr. Chappelle is an architect and contractor, and erected several buildings in Brooklyn. For about a year Mr. Chappelle has been deeply interested in aviation, and his aeroplane is quite different in style and shape from any of the models before the public. Mr. Chappelle is a member of the United States Aeronautical Reserve, and an interesting article was recently published about him in the Air Scout, the official aeronautical magazine. Many prominent white citizens of New York are interested in Mr. Chappelle's invention. TESTIMONIAL FUND FOR FOR-TUNE. Special to The New York Age Washington, D. C., Jan 11. -Personal letters have been received by a number of Washingtonians from Dr. Booker T. Washington, who gives the information that a number of the friends of I. Thomas Fortune, the veteran editor, are of the opinion that in some substantial way the Negro people of the country should record their appreciation of his services to the race during a period extending over more than thirty years. It has been suggested that a testimonial subscription be raised, and a vigorous effort will be made to secure a sum large enough to adequately express the deep sense of appreciation which Dr. Washington thinks the masses of our people everywhere feel. The movement is meeting with a ready response among Mr. Fortune's friends in this city, and there is every indication that a goodly amount will be subscribed in a short time. If every community that has felt the priceless benefits derived from Mr. Fortune's vile pen, a fund will be realized that will provide a steady income for the race's foremost advocate of human rights during the remainder of his life. REV. BROOKS TO RESIGN. During the morning services Rev W H Brooks last Sunday announced that in all probability he would retire from the pastorate of St Mark's M E. Church, owing to the exacting duties demanded of the pastor of the well-known congregation. It is likely that Rev Brooks will tender his resignation to take effect some time in April. The announced intentions of Rev Brooks has occasioned no small amount of comment among the members of St Marks, and the churchgoing people of Greater New York. He has been pastor of St Mark's M. E. Church for fourteen years. NEW YORK, THURSDAY, JANUARY 12, 1911. REORGANIZATION OF COMPANY IS PLANNED MEETING FOR JANUARY 25 Stockholders Asked to Reorganize Concern on Similar Lines as Metropolitan Street Railway Company. L. C. Collins, vice-president of the Metropolitan Mercantile Realty Company, has issued a statement to the effect that a complete reorganization of the concern is planned, and that the matter will be discussed at a meeting of stockholders on January 25. Mr. Collins' statement follows: "A few weeks ago I made a brief statement concerning the Metropolitan Mercantile and Realty Company, in which I promised a more lengthy statement later. Since that we have interwoven hundreds of stockholders of the company. In the meantime we sought to gain expressions of their attitude towards the company, since our recent financial reverses. Those expressions have been most encouraging. "The stockholders share with the directors that optimistic view concerning the company's future. Further encouraged by them, the directors have worked out a plan of complete reorganization to put the company on a safe, progressive basis. And for that purpose a special meeting of all the stockholders will be held at the company's registered office, Newark, N. J., on the 25th day of January. Meeting Will Be An Important One. "This will be the most important meeting ever held by the company, and, therefore, the stockholders should make sacrifices, if need be, to attend. The plans of reorganization are in some particulars similar to those governing the reorganization of the Metropolitan Street Railway Company of the City of New York. Very important indeed it is that the stockholders have satisfied that the loss of the Home Office Building has not meant the failure of the company, but has inspired everyone with a determination to make greater efforts for its future success. About five years the company has maintained an office at 4 Court Sq., Brooklyn, only one half of a block from Borough Hall subway station, and about five blocks from the Brooklyn Bridge. The subway makes this as convenient to the people of New York City as 150 Nassau street was. The company has enlarged its space there and made 4 Court Square its headquarters, thus saving to the stockholders seven hundred and twenty-six ($726.00) dollars per month in carrying charges. Having had the assurance of so many of the stockholders that they will co-operate with the directors in working out their plans of reorganization, I hereby advise all stockholders and bond holders to continue paying on their accounts to clear the same as soon as possible.

HONOR MEMORY OF SUMNER New York Negroes Celebrate One Hundredth Anniversary of Great Stateman—Many Meetings Held—Roscoe Conkling Simmons Speaks at St. James Church—Charles W. Anderson at Bethel. The 100th anniversary of the birth of Charles Sumner, the great statesman and champion of the slave, was generally observed throughout the city of New York, and the colored people particularly were warm and loud in their praise of their benefactor. Several meetings had been arranged for the day, two or three by the colored people, and one by the white people. At the white people's meeting, held at the Ethical Culture Society Building, the principal speakers were Mrs. Henry Villard and Moorfield Story, the celebrated Boston lawyer, who made an able address covering the period of Sumner's activity. About 250 people attended the meeting, a few of whom were colored. Most of the prominent colored men of the city attended the celebration held at St. James Church Friday evening, January 6. The oration of the evening was delivered by Roscoe Conkling Simmons. The audience was an enthusiastic one, as well as highly intelligent. Mr. Simmons was constantly applauded all through his oration. The meeting was not only a tribute to Sumner, but somewhat of a sign that the colored leaders are pretty well settled upon a positive policy to lead the colored people themselves, and will welcome any assistance in their work from any source. After the oration the Assistant Corporation Counsel praised it as the best effort that he, a Summer student, had ever heard. The music was furnished by the Mt. Olivet Choral Union, and Miss Richetta Randolph sang a solo. Among those present were Chief R. E. Lee, Hon. Edwin F. Horne with his family, James L. Curtis, Ralph D. Langton, Dr. William H. Johnson, A. Murray Robinson, John E. Robinson, W. W. Washington and many other prominent citizens of New York The anniversary meetings at Bethel Church all of last Sunday, under the direction of Dr. Ransom, were largely attended and were full of enthusiasm. In the afternoon Mrs. Keyser of the White Rose Mission was the principal speaker. In the evening Counselor James L. Curtis and Hon. Charles W. Anderson were the speakers. The church was crowded, and the speakers delivered forceful and eloquent addresses upon the activities and achievements of Summer. Mrs. Curtis with unusual ability struck a new note in the essence of leadership, saying that leaders throw themselves against specific men who perpretrate wrongs with full knowledge that theighting of every wrong does that must towards the defeat of error everywhere. Mr. Anderson happily traced the paths since the death of Summer. The colored people of New York were not one whit behind other localities in cherishing the memory of Charles Sumner, who, as one speaker said, was really put to death because he championed the cause of the struggling blacks. DEATH BLOW TO PEOPLE Ruling of Supreme Court, Presided Over by a Democratic Justice is Regarded by Citizens of Alabama as One of the Most Important Decisions Affecting the Negro Handed Down in Recent Years. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 11—The Alonzo Bailey quasi-peonage case, which has just reached a settlement by the Supreme Court of the United States, is regarded by the people of this locality as the most important decision rendered by the highest tribunal of the nation in a quarter of a century, as far as the Negro race is concerned. It is whispered about in a confidential way that men of prominence and influence, of both races, have been working quietly on this matter for over two years. Much gratification is expressed over the fact that the colored citizens who have been interested in the case had the active cooperation of the leading white people of Montgomery and the State of Alabama, who stood up manfully for what they conceived to be right, regardless of the color of the defendant. It is stated that some of the best lawyers in Montgomery have performed expert service without any charge whatever. No small degree of significance is attached to the fact that this great victory for law and order, for right and justice, should come out of a court presided over by a Democratic chief justice. It is felt that the Bailey case has given the peonage business a deathblow and that the beginning of the end of the nefarious practice is in sight.

Harris, Boston, Mass., treasurer Greensboro, Ala., Jan. 10.—Mary F Crecy, principal of the Limestone Normal and Industrial Institute, is making an urgent appeal for financial aid, and is asking for $100,000 to fully equip the school. In speaking of her work as teacher of the Limestone Public School for many years, Miss Crecy says: "Through a struggle with my limited means and $25 of which I secured from the school patrons I have built a schoolhouse, a blacksmith shop and bought fifty acres of land on which to build an industrial school for the purpose of training boys and girls the industrial arts, agriculture, carpentry, blacksmithing, cooking, laundrying, housekeeping, nursing and in all industrial lines." SUCCEED8 REV. BUTLER. At a meeting of the Prebystery of New York, held in the Chapel of the First Prebystarian Church on Monday, January 9, the resignation of Rev. C. Leroy Butler, D.D., as pastor of St. James Prebystarian Church, 357 W. 51st street, was accepted, to take effect March 1, 1911, and Rev. John H. Edwards, D.D., was designated to preach in the church on Sunday, March 5, 1911, at the morning service and declare the pulpit vacant. HE IS WORTH NEARLY HALF A MILLION DOLLARS HE IS WORTH NEARLY HALF A MILLION DOLLARS Interesting Career of Allen L. Calhoun of Keystone, West Virginia POWER IN McDOWELL COUNTY Never Went to School and Cannot Write, But Has the Reputation of Being a Very Shrewd Business Man. Special to THE NEW YORK ADB. Keystone, W. V., Jan. 10.—McDowell County, West Virginia, boasts of a remarkable Negro in the person of Allen L. Calhoun, of Keystone. Calhoun has long been a central figure in the political and commercial life of the community, and is to-day worth nearly half a million dollars. He does not himself know the exact value of his property, as he owns several thousand acres of coal land said to contain veins of coal of a fine quality, though never thoroughly tested. The city of Keystone has a population of more than two thousand, over two-thirds of whom are colored. Situated near the center of the Pocahontas coal field, contains many up-to-date business places constructed by Negroes, and draws for its trade upon the 100,000 or more miners who work in the many collieries in that section. Calhoun owns nearly one-third of Keystone, and his holdings include many houses, a grocery store, two restaurants, a drygoods store and several tenements. He collects most of his rents himself, and works from early morning until late at night. He seldom takes a vacation, and seems to have the happy faculty of imparting his zeal and earnestness to the various clerks whom he employs. Was Born a Slave Born a slave in Virginia just before the close of the war, Calhoun at an early age began to dig coal in the mines. Being very saving, he soon acquired enough to begin lending money to miners at a good rate of interest Later he became a foreman in the mines, and had charge of a large force of miners. He began to purchase property, mining, and went into business. That was probably twenty-five years ago. Since than all his business ventures have been crowned with success. He owns land in every section of McDowell County, has two large brick business blocks in Bluefield, W. Va., and a large farm in Virginia. He has a fashion of having his initials painted upon all his houses, and the initials "A. L. C" are everywhere in evidence in the Pocahontas field. Calhoun never went to school, cannot write, and reads with the greatest difficulty, having to spell our each word. He employs several threads young men who attend to the clerical part of his business. He is a widower with six children, and is a good father. His boys display an aptitude for business that is remarkable. One little chap eight years old sells lemonade on the streets in the summer and newspapers in the winter. A fondness for fine clothes and horses seems to be Calhoun's only weakness, as he does not smoke nor drink. He manages to get a good deal of wear out of the clothes, however, and has to ride a great deal in collecting his many rents to amuse himself he plays the leading part. He has been one of the colored councilmen of Keystone for many years, and displays great interest in the welfare of the city. Is a Factor in Politics. The Negroes of Keystone have never wanted a colored mayor, and that office, and the offices of city recorder and chief police are always filled by white men. The jury two of the four police officers are colored. No one can be elected or appointed to any of these offices, however, without Calhoun's O. K. Consequently there is seldom any opposition to anything he wishes to have done. There are five Negro justices of the peace and as many Negro constables in McDowell, and it is very difficult to obtain a judgment against Calhoun. He is shrewd enough, however, not to demand anything unreasonable, and thus, with his great interest in civic affairs, makes him very much respected by both races. The Negroes and whites live side by side in harmony in Keystone, and Calhoun is largely responsible for this condition of affairs. He will take the part of a white man against a Negro or that of a Negro against a white man, if he thinks he is in the right. In 1000 a disastrous fire swept over the business section of Keystone and destroyed several of Calhoun's buildings. He lost over $50,000 worth of property. Before the ruins had cooled he had a force of laborers clearing away the debris, and within a month had laid the foundations for several modern fireproof buildings. Calhoun is the only colored member of the McDowell County School Board. In manner, he is somewhat brusque and unpolished, but he at all times displays a shrewdness that makes him a very interesting character. NOW ADVOCATE SEPARATE SA- LOON8. Baltimore, Md., Jan. 11.—The segregation idea is growing and separate saloons for both races have been championed by State's Attorney A. S. J. Owens. The prosecuting attorney says that he would hereafter class all saloons that served both races as disorderly houses, following the sentencing to jail of a colored man charged with assaulting a white bartender. HAS BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD President Taft in a Letter to Whitefield McKinlay, Writes That He Is Con- fident of the New World. He Will Be More Clearly Understood by Negroes of United States. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, Jan. 9-That President Taft's attitude toward the Negro race has been both misunderstood and misrepresented is a matter of knowledge to him and is shown by the letter he wrote Whitefield McKinlay when he appointed him to the position of Collector of Customs for the District of Columbia. However, the President elects to work out the interests of the race in his own way, confident that the ultimate and final results will be so permanently beneficial to the race as to justify his course. HON WHITEFIELD McKINLAY Collector of Customs at Georgetown, D. C. This letter of the President was written in reply to Mr. McKinlay's letter thanking him for the appointment, and Mr. McKinlay is so proud of its tribute to him, and its tone of encouragement for the race that he has had the letter framed and hung in his office where all who enter may see and read. The letter follows I have yours of August 15. I took particular pleasure in appointing you to your new and honorable office. Of course, I felt it would be regarded as a recognition of you as a man, and your race and will be available through business is a guarantee that you will be a good public officer. My attitude towards your race has I sometimes think, been misunderstood or misrepresented, but I am confident as time passes my position will be more clearly understood. The statement 'I am confident as time passes my position will be more clearly understood,' will be accepted by all optimists of the race as assurance that President Taft is earnestly considerate of, interested in, and solicitous for the race's future. G. A. R. VETERAN DEAD. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Jan 10—William H. Garnett, familarly known as Bill H.," and one of the prominent colored citizens of Dutchess County, die dat Vassar Hospital Sunday, following a brief illness. He went to the hospital several days ago to undergo an operation. Garnett was born in this city. At the opening of the Civil War he enlisted in the First Louisiana Colored Regiment and served three years in the Union Army. After his discharge he returned to his home city. Although an ardent Democrat he knew no party line sin advancing the interests of his race, the keynote of his endeavors in their behalf being "good citizenship" He stood out head and shoulders above his people in the county, their acknowledged leader and guide An old-fashioned firemen's parade was never completed without "Bill Hen,' and he served always as delegate to represent his people in public conferences and conventions. He was Master of Mount Mariah, Colored Free Masons, a Past Noble Grand of Rose Leaf Lodge of Odd Fellows, and a member of Ketcham Post, G A R. BOOK ON NEGRO WIN8 PRIZE. At the annual meeting of the American Historical Association held recently at Indianapolis, the Justin Winsor prize was awarded to Edward Raymond Turner, PhD, graduate of Johns Hopkins University, and now Associate in History at Bryn Mawr College, for his book entitled "The Negro in Pennsylvania—Slavery, Servitude, Freedom." The prize respects the most important award in this country for work in American history, is now given every two years in recognition of the most valuable and original work done in American history by an author whose reputation is not yet established. The prize has been awarded nine times since 1894. The work is constructed entirely from public documents, manuscripts, contemporary pamphlets, and newspapers. The material was obtained for the most part in Pennsylvania, especially from the collection of the State Library at Harrisburg, the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, and the Library Company of Philadelphia. Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5, CENTS CHICAGO'S MORAL CRUSADE Movement to Build Branch of Y.M.C.A.to Cost $150,000 Julius Rosenwald and Norman W. Harris Each Subscribe $25,000 for Erection of Building MANY MEETINGS BEING HELD Central Body Has Also Made Flinttaring Proposition—J. E. Moreland Arousing Widespread Interest. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Chicago, Ill., Jan. 10.—The most remarkable moral awakening among the colored people that has ever been witnessed in Chicago is now on and in full force. Under the masterly direction of J. E. Moreland, one of the international secretaries of the Young Men's Christian Association, Chicago has been aroused in an effort to build and establish a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, to cost not less than $150,000. The central body has made the proposition that if the Negroes will raise $50,000 it will furnish $100,000. The entire amount will complete the building and furnish and equip it for occupancy. The building proposed will be a model in all of its appointments. The colored people have responded to the call and offer with extraordinary enthusiasm Meetings, preparatory to the campaign, have been held every night during the past six weeks. Men in all stations of life have rallied to the call. Hundreds who were never supposed to have any race interest in such things have enrolled themselves in the army of workers. It is a magnificent exhibition of what is possible by appeal to the better ones of the army on the streets. The pool rooms, the card tables, the dance halls, ete, have not been wholly able to draw the young men away from the widespread enthusiasm of the Y. M. C. A. Whites Show Marked Interest. the most interesting thing about the movement is the generous interest that the white people of the city are taking. Last Sunday afternoon at Odd Fellows' Hall, in the presence of an immense throng of men of both races, interest reached a climax that surred the big town. At this meeting two of the leading financial business men rose to make an offer to help on the cause. One of them, Julius Rosenwald, one of the wealthiest Jewish citizens in the city, made an impassionate speech in behalf of the movement and closed his speech by subscribing $25,000 to the building fund. Not only so, but he went so far in his generosity as to make the offer to give the same amount to any city of the Southern States which will raise an additional sum to the amount $100,000 to erect in such city an up-to-date Young Men's Christian Association building. Mr Rosenwald's address created a profound impression. Another benefactor arose, in the person of Norman W. Harris, one of the leading bankers of the city, who subscribed $25,000 to the building fund for Chicago. The addresses of both, together with their generous donations, aroused a tremendous enthusiasm. Commenting on these two handsome donations, the Tribune says. The importance of Mr Rosenwald's proposal of an unlimited National benefaction to the colored race it is impossible to overestimate. It is looked upon as an inauguration of a new era in the practical cooperation and assistance from the white race and of spiritual mental and physical advancement. Mr Harris, the other benefactor, said: I do not hesitate to say that Mr Rosenwald's gift will prove to be the most important benefaction the colored race has received since emancipation. Daily Papers Comment on Donations Nearly all the papers of the city commented on the Sunday meeting as a new awakening on the part of the white people in their obligations to the Negro. Among other things Mr Rosenwald said that he was inspired by a deep sympathy for a race which, like his own, for many centuries lived in a flourishing civilization deprived of a "square deal" and an equal chance. He said he felt it a fit memorial to the past persecutions of his race and to its present triumphs that he should aid in the relief and uplifting of another race similarly situated. The campaign for subscriptions, through the efforts of the Negro citizens, is now on and a well equipped army of trained solicitors are invading every nook and corner where there is a dollar in sight. These young men are going forth with a splendid show of confidence and behind them there is tremendous encouragement in every direction. The social atmosphere is surcharged with success. The moral forces (Continued on Page 8) AMONG THE CHURCHES St. Benedict's, The Moor. It was the usual order of services at St. Benedict's last Sunday. Large crowds attended the mass which is the sacred service of the Catholic Church. At the 11 o'clock High Mass Father O'Keefe preached and Father O'Mahoney chanted mass.

St. Benedict choral boys were out in their new choir suits last Sunday and rendered special music during the day. Timothy Baptist A turkey dinner at Timothy Rey J H Newark, pastor was given last Thursday night. The pastor asked God to bless a table that was filled of all sorts of good things. The table was the length of the main floor of the church. Before the dinner there was a volunteer concert in which the young and old enjoyed themselves very much. The choir furnished the music. The pastor is still preaching on his sermons, preaching Sunday morning. The Power of the Word' Dion Cotton of Concord Baptist Church' couraged the people in his remarks. A 9 p.m. in spite of run the pastor preached a well prepared sermon to his people. --- 8t.

Dr Butler, the pastor, was away on an evangelistic mission in Buffalo and the pulpit was occupied it each of the services by Secretary T J Bell of the M C A who preached interesting sermons during the day. The Sunday school which is a very important adjunct to the church convened immediately after the morning service. Superintendent Robinson told The Age reporter last Sunday that the Sunday school is growing rapidly and already over sixty pupils are on the books. A missionary class is being organized at the Sunday school under the direction of Miss Rosie Harper. Dr John Hillary, of Brooklyn is another enthusiastic worker on the Sunday school.

Dr Ransom delivered the Charles Sammer Charity exhibition in Boston last Friday night. St Mark'a Church Rev Dr Brooks filled his pupil Sunday in the morning he preached from St. Matthews, 311 H. Subject "The office and object of the Holy Spirit. There is no substitute for the Holy Spirit. No one can cultivate or recommend can take the place of the Holy Spirit. The cultivation of the heart and mind is of vast importance, but we should not sacrifice the essence of divine truth. It is good for a church to have power, influence, prestige, social stand, in a community, but no church can save its real purpose of all its divine mission without a positive Baptism of the Holy Spirit. We sometimes content ourselves with a cultivation of the moral and ethical side of life without cultivating the spiritual side. A great building or a large audience does not make a church, without a Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Conversion is a forgiveness of the past, or the foundation upon which a Christian life must be built. When a prisoner is forgiven it does not once only make him a better man, he must build for himself a new character. The Sabbath school observed Decision Day and many decided to live a new life in Jesus Christ.

In last week's all there was an account of the annual North Carolina Republican circus held year after year at Greensboro. Already we have directed attention to Col Joe Reece's opinion of the show. Perhaps better than we could do at the Raleigh Nezus and Observer, as will be seen by looking over this page, describes the performance. For this labor of love we accept Uncle Josephus out of the backslider's pew. He isn't going to keep it long, well do we know, but he is given his usual front seat in the Amen Corner. The lily white business in North Carolina is a serious affair only because so many men once sane are mixed up in it, and all of them are Federal office-holders. Not a mother's son of them would have amounted to a hill of beans in public affairs but for the loyalty and support of colored Republicans in the State. Duncan, Holton Steve Adams and turkey strutting Tom Settle, who illy bears an honored Republican name, are each the creature of the colored element in North Carolina Republicanism. As far as Tom Settle is concerned, no man save Jeter Pritchard upon whose bare feet the Negroes put socks, ought to be fairer towards colored men. The colored Republicans of the Fifth District sent Settle to the Congress and gave him a political prestige that he could not have otherwise attained. All he is he owes to them. All he is not he owes to a succession of residence removals and political summersaults, of his own choosing. Why does President Taft permit folly? If he could kill off Capers in South Carolina, why can he not kill off the brutal spoilsmen of North Carolina, who make a once decent and effective Republican party a laughing stock for serious men and a clearing house for as greedy and as unprincipled led a set of government fattened politicians as may anywhere be found. All the string of resolutions that the "conference" shot at President Taft is baby-mush. Mr. Taft must understand the fawning of the thrifty, and likewise pierce the sham of their representations. To give one instance of their easy speech: Instead of the Republican party increasing in North Carolina, as the "conference" claims, the recent election returns show a heavy and significant decrease. Why? Because the Republican electors, under advice of the same clique and crowd that resolves often and resigns never, cut the ticket in rebuke to President Taft for appointing H. G. Connor, a wretched Democrat, to a Federal judgehis. The "conference" felicitated first themselves, then the President upon the successful choking-off of the colored Republicans. Very well. These men and their fathers before them were good Republicans and are good Republicans now, notwithstanding Settle shot off a lot of talk in New York recently about their voting the Democratic ticket. They will be Republicans again when again Republicans control the party machinery. And that time will soon come. The Act has the figures between 25,000 and 30,000 colored men are registered voters in North Carolina. Only a few thousand vote any ticket at all, but a majority of them still stand loyalty by their party. We believe that President Taft will finally pull away from the present party "leadership" in North Carolina and turn to real Republicans like Judge W P Bynum and Judge James E. Boyd who are too old-fashioned to be hypocrites, for advice. We turn the fat rascals over to the tender mercies of Col. Joe Reece of the Record. We shall not have a single care if even the much tenderer mercies of Uncle Josephus overtake them. May we not charge John Mitchell, Jr. to entertain Brother Hemphill of the Times Dispatch with much hospitality? He is no angel of whose presence Richmond is not aware, but he has the old time South Carolina Campbellian religion and is flaible at any time to tell the truth out in meeting. GEORGE W. WALKER. Actor, business genius, a pioneer and pathfinder, the late George W. Walker's place in the history of the stage of his country was long ago made secure. Walker was a Kansas boy, a typical full-blooded Negro. His life was a romance. The comedy of which he was master and which he popularized, not only among and for his people but fun the American stage, was a part of him and he of it. He won a world-wide fame, not by impersonation, but by a faithful, a real, a captivating portrayal of the characteristics of his own kind. The humor of the American Negro through which runs the philosophic strain of all strong and primitive races, through him superseded in the popular mind here and over the sea, the burnt cork consacration peddled for many years by the toothtight fakers as a true portrait of the sad, smiling blacks. Centuries hence Walker will be remembered in his work, when the members of his tree are well settled in their place underpinned by the arts of the Stage Hogan and Walker coined the forested junt the brushes. Williams and Walker are names quite familiar to the public. Williams is with us. His art is an asset to his profession. Walker's art is an asset to his race and his profession, and the wide reputation that these two of marth enjoyed is on the credit side of Walker's account with his young but crowded life. Williams is the very first in rendering to Walker the tribute that is his. The labors that Walker performed against prejudiced managers, no less stubborn than a prejudiced public, are chief in the list of his achievements. He made his way to Broadway through bitter struggles, through disappointment, against machination and an almost combined power of those that are in control of the American theatres. In respect of these achievements it is not a tax on truth to call him a hero. May his race never fail to hold him in gentle memory, for the history of the American stage is certain to write George Walker's name in letters of gold CHICAGO'S OPPORTUNITY The colored people of Chicago are undergoing a remarkable experience Two influential white people, one an Anglo-Saxon and one a Jew, have recently offered to give $25,000 each to ward the erection of a Y. M C. A. building for colored people in Chicago. The colored people of Chicago are now asked to raise $50,000 among themselves. Will they do it? They are going to be put to the test in this matter. Of course the average white man does not realize how much money the Negro is called upon to spend in supporting his churches and fraternal organizations. This makes a severe drain upon his pocketbook, but nevertheless we believe that the colored people of Chicago will come to the front and raise a large part, if not all, of the $50,000. Here is a matter that does not concern the interests of the Negro in the South or West Indies, or Africa, or anywhere else, but concerns the interests of the race in Chicago. We believe that they will respond in a speedy and praise-worthy way. One of the donors, Julius Rosenwald, is a Jew. We quote the following words from the address which he delivered when he made this great gift. This, as you know, is the season which is proclaimed to be the season of peace on earth and good will to men. It sounds fine. And I do not believe there could be a better ideal to work than that one, but I am afraid, up to this time, it has been only an ideal. You probably imagine that the colored people are the only people who don't get their rights, but if it is any way, I don't want to you that there are white people who suffer a great deal more. The Jewish race which dates back thousands of years and like yours dates back to a time when they were not a legal institution and legislated against in all states of the world at the time of time. In Russia today the Jews are persecuted in a way that would not be tolerated. It is not a question of color but rather of when these people have suffered for thousands of years for every badly at the progress you made in the last fifty or forty years. You have got a great deal more to offer than the Jews of the time but have since the time they were in slavery. You would probably be surprised to know that there are clubs in Chicago representing what you might call the beat type of citizenship that do not admit Jews to membership, although one of them is called a club of university men. I do not want you to feel that you cannot get in. Even if they admitted Jews, I am not a university man. I am not at all hurt by the stand this club takes. Personally I have no quarrel with any man who takes that position. I believe that the Jew has a good chance in this country and that. If he behaves himself properly, he will have a day later to meet him and I will acctly the same way about the colored man. You have only to do the same. What Mr. Rosenwald said as to the methods of the Jew in overcoming prejudice and securing a position for himself is worth considering. Here is a white man who has demonstrated his ability to succeed and overcome prejudice and now he advises our race the path we should follow in reaching the same degree of success. His words are worth reading carefully. ANNIVERSARIES The Age is thoroughly in harmony with the policy of celebrating the birth of white freedom-builders Abraham Lincoln, Charles Sumner, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Wendell Phillips, Garrison and others. Howbeit, we venture the suggestion that while it is proper that we take part in the celebration of the great deeds of white people, we should not overlook the matter of celebrating the great deeds of the members of our own race. Nor should the white people who are interested in the Negro overlook the importance and influence of celebrating the anniversaries of great Negroes Doug Lingst, of their kind, about which anniversaries we ought to hear in these celebrating days. A race that sings one grand, sweet song of praise of other races, but entails in keeping curses upon its living great or its departed heroes will not sue good or evil, but it stares at all. Let us then be in the future but the universities of great Negroes, while keep up green the memory of all who fought for the city. WHY 10 YEARS? I was called to the court prisoner.

Caithe goes to the Penitentiary for the years. P. R. K. N. w w n i g h t that I lost Tom Walker! Why was the man ever tried it was known all along that he killed his wife accidentally? And if it was established at a trial that he was shooting at a bound that was destroying his home, why this ten year sentence? Why not free the prisoner? There is something wrong somewhere either with the Recorder's report or with the administration of the law in South Carolina Will Parson Gonzales of the State enlighten us? South Carolina doings have all been clouded since Presiding Elder Hemphill was transferred to Richmond ABLE SUPPORT. In his light, a proper fight indeed, to have the Panama Canal, when finished, fortified in the name and under the control of the United States, President Taft has turned for aid to all the strong men of his party. Thus far the ablest, strongest and only brilliant defense of the President's position came from Joseph Benson Foraker, the ablest senator the American Congress can claim from 1881 to 1909, and among the ablest it has ever had. It is to the President's credit that he can command the support, which he himself announces, of Senator Foraker. WRITE TO-DAY What about your Congressman? Have you written or seen your Congressman regarding voting against New Orleans as a place for holding the Panama Exposition? If you have not done so, you have not been loyal to your race. Let your Congressman understand that every Negro who goes to New Orleans to attend the Panama Exposition, in case that city is selected, will be insulted, because of having to ride inside of a cage like a wild animal on the street cars, whenever he rides through the streets of New Orleans. Ask your Congress to vote in favor of California. If not in favor of California, certainly against New Orleans. No time is to be lost. Action should be taken at once by individuals and by various organizations. Every Congressman should be reached speedily and urged to cast his vote against the disgrace that New Orleans heaps upon the Negro. The king of Spain paid Africa a visit last week. Suppose, now, Spain wants a piece of the dark, rich continent. Andrew Carnegie said in his speech at the Republican Club last Saturday that a command from the President he always considered the voice of God. We suggest to Col. Roosevelt that in his Grant oration this year he devote a few words to the virtual abrogation of the laws to write which Grant fought all his great battles. Postmaster General Hitchcock desires the credit for killing off the lily-white plans of South Carolina. If it is all right with President Taft, it is all right with us. The Savannah Tribune of December 21 contains the following news item: During the past few weeks not less than 100,000 people have joined people of Burke, Jenkins and adjoining counties sold out their holdings and left for the west. There is a serious cause for this. Georgia cannot afford, to lose this class of its citizens may be. But this condition of affluence will continue, until they are assigned better treatment in the ranks of citizens. Several Southern communities will find that more and more Negroes are going to kid farewell to those counties that do not give them full justice in all the relations that concern life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The day is past, and will never return, when they will be content to accept any kind of treatment without protest. NORTH STATE PROGRESS The Negroes of North Carolina are among the most progressive in the entire country. They are leaders in the business world. There are in that state three silk mills run entirely by Negro labor, one is owned by Negro capitalists. There are two hostery mills run entirely by Negro labor, one is owned by Negro capitalists. In every section of the state are found farmers who are not only doing well, but whose wealth and property are increasing each year. These farmers are harvesting from ten bales to three hundred bales of cotton per year besides a corresponding amount of other crops. Some of them have cotton gins and are dealing extensively in cotton seeds. Some have saw-mills and are engaged in cotton processing. Some are engaged in stock-raising and are breeding high-class horses and cattle. There is likewise great improvement in the home life and surroundings* of the farmers. They are building nice houses and making them attractive. There are a number of prosperous industries in the town. The companies employ a large number of agents, inspectors, superintendents, stenographers, typewriters, clerks and managers. There are three banks in the state, located at Kinston, Durham and Winston-Salem. These banks are interested in the development of saving. There are many building and loan associations in successful operation in most of the town. These are lending great stimulus to the accumulation of property. By this means many persons are able to bury homes and pay taxes. There are many installments. The best evidence of the progress of the Negroes of North Carolina is found in the rapid increase in the assessed value of their taxable property. The assessed value of Negro property in 1891 was $8,018,446; increase in 1892 was $8,140,256; increase in 18 years, $13,368,818 or one hundred sixty-seven per cent. That is progress! THE SERVANT OF ALL The Charleston Advocate The Richmond Planet is very much perturbed over and takes exceptions to Dr Washington's intercessions with President Taft for the appointment of William H. Lewis as assistant attorney general. The Advocate has long had, as it has now, a high opinion of the judgment of the editor of The Planet, but it confesses itself an apostate upon this issue and reacts the reasons advanced by The Planet against Dr. Washington's interest in Mr. Lewis' appointment. Political activity is no new charge against the eminent Tuskegee. For years that has been the stock in trade of those who for one reason or another have been accused of one point in common among them, so common as to characterize them, and that is that none of them interests himself along this line so much as to get passing notice. The Advocate has yet to see where any of Dr. Washington's actions out of their way to ask for a Federal appointment for a member of the race. It costs nothing to sit in one's office and write an editorial crittiching another's actions; but, for a change, just show how the thing ought to be done, and you will do yourself. Instead of waiting till Dr. Washington tries to make an opening somewhere for a Negro he thinks deserving, hump yourself along similar lines. It is a fact patent to a blind man, but a fact that a thing from this administration unless his friends "get busy" and stay busy till the President signs his commission. Then, since Dr. Washington is willing to assume this thankless task, why in his office should his saints can not those who have nothing to gain or lose keep their mouths shut? Our experience has been that the appointing powers are only too glad to find a division among Negroes as an excuse for not making a desired appeal to the candidate, and say that their unwillingness to side with any faction was responsible for not naming the candidate proposed by any one of them. Still we yell like stuck pigs for recognition. Recognition then could any one less than a Solomon's seal recognition to any class which does not know what or whom it wants' PINCHBACK'S APPOINTMENT. The Fife, on the New York Ack. I saw in a recent issue of the Odd Fellows' Journal a clipping from your able paper, noting the appointment of Ix Gov P R B S Pinchback, of Louisiana, to a well merited position in the Internal Revenue Service of your state. The captain is deserving and worthy of more than he will get, yet his many friends in Louisiana, as elsewhere, rejoice in and welcome this mark of excellence delivered by the governor belongs to the school of the Old Guard" in Louisiana of 1868, that made thesemblance of a party possible, while many of those shouting loudest now had not yet seen the light of day, and others arrogating to themselves leadership and dictators of the great old Republican party, were then in business in the Democratic party or leader in every violent movement to kill off the growth of and the leaders our party. The old guard and many thousands approve and rejoice in the appointment of the man who was state senator, president pro tem of the Senate and acting lieutenant-governor, then acting twice lieutenant-governor, the United States Senate, but denied also through Republican treachery; elected member of Congress at large pending his contest for a seat in the Senate. The party doughnouses tried to compromise with him by agreeing to seat him in the House of Representatives and claim for seat in the Senate, but he refused with an epithet that made the air seem to burn.

NOTE AND COMMENT Nick Chiles, of the Topeka Plain-dealer, is a Christian man, and behind his stormy brow is a heart tender indeed. It is, therefore, surprising to see Mr. Chiles wrathful. The other day he sat down on the banks of the Kaw River to muse upon the thirteen years which have been glorified by the seven day grace showers of his newspapers. It was fitting that he should write. He broke a twig from a nearby willow and began a an essay "Our Birthday." Three lines, more or less, Nick devoted to an auspicious birth. Contemplating the chances that thousands who either don't read the Plain-dealer, or read it and don't pay for it, he could not restrain his wrath. His words are hot but not heavy: "Seventy per cent. of the young Negroes—East and West are not worth the time it would take to mention them. They are being trained wrong. They never think of entering the business world nor do they think of making good in their ordinary daily vocabularies. In their ordinary clothes, of clothes, thus rigged out, go about with a pretentious air that disguise the average progressive man of the race. The men of other races have begun to look on them as unsafe to trust, even in mental work. We have strived for years in the columns of our paper to show to them the proper road to success. While a small per cent. bluff at doing something, the rank and file still idly by, criticizing those who are trying to accomplish something. They are given to talking nonsense and deadbeating their way through the world. We are not in the least discouraged over our efforts and intend to continue along the course we have loved throughout. Let's all put our shoulder to the wheel in an effort to advance. Some time ago THE Age contained a report of a meeting held in Springfield, Mass, at which Rev. W. N. De Berry, the prominent preacher, delivered an address in which, according to the report, he advised segregation, and approved of certain evil practices in several parts of the country. Mr. De Berry's reported position and attitude alarmed his friends and gave him no little amusement. The Springfield Republican recently printed the following letter from Mr. De Berry: As the Republican's report of a recent address by myself, given in the Park City did me injustice in that it represented me as advocating unlimited segregation of the races, and as this published report has been widely copied by other papers, including the New York Age, the leading Negro journal in the country, I ask for space to express my opinion as regards the point in question. The view which I hold out and which I tried to make clear in the address referred to above is that in the South, especially where the two races dwell together in large numbers, separation in matters purely social is, for the time long at least, the only practical remedy for the situation, the center about the much-mooted question of the social equality of the Negro and white man. It is in this particular sphere that the Negro's better judgment has led him to agree to the white man's edict of social separation, as unjust and unreasonable as that edict of social separation. The Negro has discovered in the development and maintenance of his own social institutions a wide and inviting field of social activity and achievement. But such a social order is, in my judgment, but a temporary condition. For it is obvious that when the South is in a sufficient height in Christian civilization, the social barriers which now separate them will certainly disappear. But in no other realm of community separation. In business, in industry, in politics and in the enjoyment of the public privileges, rights and benefits which are the unalloyable possession of the individual, the individual contend to the utmost for an equal quote with their Anglo-Saxon brother. There can be no more futile nor unjust effort than that which is being made in practically every part of this country to-day to exclude Negroes from such employment or well-being. The Negro is too intricately woven into the essential fabric of the American body politic to be thus arbitrarily excluded. I am in nowise opposed to the distinctively Negro colony in any city or community where Negroes themselves are employed (for I believe that Negroes have as much right to colonize as white people), but I am opposed to all forms of compulsory colonization, whether the people so colonized be Negroes or Italians. In other words, I believe in the people every people and every family to choose for itself the locality of its abode. I made no such false statement as "Negroes do not object to Jim Crow laws, provided degraded whites are included in their provisions." My statement was that "Negroes will object to Jim Crow laws, provided degraded whites are based on character rather than color and applied to both races alike." These in short, are the views I hold regarding this very tacitly phase of the Negro problem. The American Journal of Medicine is a well-respected journal in the medical community, and as such the journals are subject of self-publication. They may appear to be free, and that is the United States has no moral right to further subpoena them. On the other hand, the expositors are sure that if God did not choose us to hold and calmen the brown men, why the value of coining stations offer both relief and excuse. The Brooklyn Towers, one of the oldest of American journals, is an expansionist, updating Mr. Taft's well-known position in respect of our presence in the Philippines; President Tait discussed this question at a dinner in Washington on Saturday. He debated the discussion of Filipino independence as a practical question, and expressed the opinion that if the time should ever come for the Philippines to become independent, he capable of being entrusted with the conduct of their own affairs it would be found that they realised the advantages of the American connection so highly that they could not be persuaded to sever it. The President understands the situation alike from person observation and from the reports of those who are laying the groundwork which he will be well-bearer and the future will doubtless show that his estimate of the future of the Philippines is well founded. THE NEGRO PRESS The amazing feature of this segregating business is that a little nest of Negroes got together in Kalimorte and pretended that they liked it. They did manage to say that segregation by Negroes was a bad thing, and said, "Let us profit by this segregation movement by establishing enterprises," etc, they threw the fat in the fire. The measure is unsparkly bad, and if permitted to operate the day of its conception will be a black letter day in Negroes' segregating precedents want to be blamed out as if they were fire and took -The Freeman. Jim Crowd All Right The Chicago Broad Ax. in its last issue asked the question, "Is Jim Crowism growing in Chicago?" It answered its own question by saying "that the sign of the times seems to indicate that the increase. Many of the theatre Jim Crow the New Yorker he is Jim Crowed in various other ways." It further said that many colored people reside in model homes in all sections of the city. The simple fact is, he is Jim Crowed to an alarming age and helps to bring bright Yes, the Negro is Jim Crowed. - Nashville Charlion. A Necessary Convention. The idea of Dr. Booker T. Washington to hold an International Conference at Tuskegee Institute in 1911 is indeed a good one. We Negroea need every possible means advanced to let them understand the real status of the race. Of our people, corn field hand can relate the degradation and criminality of our people, but it takes the more cultured minds to appreciate the progress and advancement that we are making and be able to give direct aid for L.e. same—hence the necessity of great gatherings of this kind.—Rock Hill (S. C.) Messenger. No Sentiment in Business Give no attention to calamity howlers. Push and make your business go. Too often men of the race in business refuse to adopt the methods of success of other people; advertise liberally and of things and remain out of them entirely too long before replenishing themselves with the things the people require and must have constantly complaining; nothing is made by handling this and that wholly unconscious of the customers who are looking to them, and must have, and must have, or their customers are forced from necessity go where they can be accommodated without regards to color or race. It is a false idea expect to build a business on sentiment. But on merit, because you have the right, further you are selling as cheap, and you are criminating with your customers, but on the contrary, running a first-class business. - Cadix. (Ky) Informer Where Is the "Charm?" If the charm of amalamation has any sweetness, the respectable people of the two races fail to see it in the present era, nor will it be advisable in general for more than six generations to come. The marriages of rich diplomatic and affluent women to white women only accentuate the negro family and the race suffers the humiliation. Such marriages also make the white race look like sixteen cents and humiliates them also. But all these things foretell that human nature will make its course regardless of the infancy of the problem, and that amalamation will surely come. Intermarriages will lessen the depravity of the lower life, not that we advocate it, but the charm and virtue of the first product of Negro girl will be taken away. Five years from her descent from the family, the amalamation of the South will be undermined and fifty years will be a murder of what is the resilient form of human nature. FINANCIAL DOTS The R.

The Ace does not know. It would seem, however, that a safe, conservative institution would pay in a city the size of Charlotte. If Mr. Taft's opinion of the use of North Carolina Republicans has been expressed in his now Greenboro speech and in the appointment, it would be necessary him to give expression to his when he reads the resolutions at the State Committee in Greenboro days ago. Condensed into a few sentences, they were as follows. Resolved 1 We, the Butler head faction, demand all the offices, but we will favor retaliators who had had only one term if they are incarcerates and we will not permit them postponement in because we cannot defeat him. Resolved 2 In order to indict President to give us the much plea, we hereby declare for his nation in 1912 as his own suce.

President and pie distributor he declares they are unworthy sentatives of the party, and give the dirt before him to get the that drop from his table; the that covered in all matters by a nod from Washington city; the think that a promise to support in a taffy resolution will open the door to a new president. If Mr. Taft reads the resolution minating with the you-tickle-me-I'll-tickle-you promise of suppl will be disgusted with the sum that he has no higher idea of than to give out the sanges that will promise him gates. More and more it is clear in North Carolina Republican is organized has little more to it mouth and an appetite.

"I am Jehovah, that is my name and my glory, will I, not give to another, my God, the Father, of whom are all things" (I Thessalonians will. D. "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one-Jehovah" (Deuteronomy vi. 0.

The Scriptures tell us of "the beginning of the creation of God," hence there was a time before that beginning of creation when Jehovah God was alone—"he that inhabited Eternity." Not even the great Michael was with him, the great Messiah, whom he beth so highly honored and whom he declares he will still further honor throughout a glorious eternity. He was not with the Father before the beginning of creation, because he himself was "the beginning of the creation of God—the first born of every creature" (Revelations 11, 14; Colossians 1, 15). He was the first expression or manifestation of the Divine attributes John 1, 15). This mighty God, Jehovah, self-centered, self-contained, ours, the same yesterday, today and forever, he changes not Divine Attributes Glorious Every attribute of the Divine character was the same millions of years ago that it is today, but that character was unrevealed. Every step of creation has tended to display the Divine character more and more, and each successive step and development of creation has brought forth new creatures capable of comprehending the Divine character, and unable to assume that Jebrowah's creative power will continue to be exercised throughout all coming time. Astronomical photography now reveals nearly 125,000,000 sums, around which circle systems such as the one which circles around our sun, and of which our earth is a part. We deem it not unreasonable to assume, from the scriptures, that the great work of orating all those hundreds of millions of planets stretches forward into eternity, and that the work of Divine grace begun on the planet "Earth." will be continued throughout the Universe, not only in conjunction with the planetary systems we can discern but probably with millions of planetary systems too far removed from us to be discerned even by photographic. Doubleless Divine methods in connection with other worlds and other inhabitants will display the manifold wisdom of God. For instance, we understand the Bible to indicate that while the permission of evil in the earth was wise, it will not necessarily be wise or expedient for any reason to permit a similar reign of Sin and Death in any other of the millions of worlds, in connection with their ordering or development and their peopling with glorious creatures who will show forth the praises of the great Creator without their passing through experiences with sin and death such as have been permitted in connection with the humanity of earth. The Permission of Evil. Can we not see a broad reason for the permission of evil on the earth for the permission of the reign of God and Death which for six thousand years has apparently disgraced the Creator, degraded humanity, astonished the angels and constituted our groaning creation? Only when we discern that Messiah's Kingdom is surely the order of this condition, do we begin to get the prince focus upon our subject and realize somethin' of the greatness of creation from the point of view of the purposes in relation with humanity and from the standpoint of us, we see trusted Itself in Wisdom Justice like and Power. The primary lesson we Justice the God brings suffering everlasting death. The second lesson was that of vine compassion, sympathy. This lesson was manifested in sending of the Redeemer and his sequent reward of exaltation, and gathering of an "elect" Church to his associates in glory and in blessing of the redeemed race. The reign of glory the reign of Messiah soon to be introduced, will lift up humanity from sin and sorrow for degradation and death, and give each and all the fullest opportunity to return to human perfection and to vise favor and everlasting life. In all that work of human restitution, which will include the awakening of mankind from the sleep of death the one great lesson will be the great mass of the Divine Power which will be exercised through Messiah, the God Himself the Prince of Life. Were we to allow ourselves to speculate respecting the future-respecting the Divine purposes in relation to the millions of worlds around us, our speculations would run thus: Those instructed and used of Jehovah in conjunction with the initial development of the Divine Plan in the earth will thereby be fitted and prepared to be the Divine Agents to other worlds. The Great Redemer and his "elect" associates, after dealing with humanity for their uplift out of sin and death conditions, will surely be qualified for further service in other worlds: to "show forth the praises of him who called them out of darkness into his marvelous light." And what shall we say of humanity when perfected at the end of Messiah's glorious reign? Will not all be well prepared, not only to approve right-cousins in themselves, but to tell in other worlds, to other races, the story of the fall and of the reign of Sin and death, and of the great restitution, be accomplished by God's love; and of the great restitution; and of the lessons thus learned? The Unchanotable One. The qualities of the Divine character which we have just considered—Wisdom, Justice, Love and Power—behonged to our Creator in the great eternity preceding Creation. But there was no one at that time to appreciate God—it requires a full view of the perfect Plan of the Agus to make known to gay and to all the glory of the Lord. As we have just seen, thus for the secret of the Lord and the glories of his character are known only to the "sons," begotten of his holy Spirit. But the true tears when "the whole earth shall be full of the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the great deep." He and his glorious government will then be "the desire of all nations." "The glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together" (Hagnal ii. ii. Isaih x. 16). St. Paul ensures us that every feature of the Savine Plan which we see in process of execution was known to Jebovah from before the foundation of the world. He declares that these things God purposed in himself before the foundation of the world. The creative processes, which have been operating for thousands of years, were all surely elaborated in the mind of Jebovah before the creative work began. In that purpose angels had a part—of how many gods they are variably designated in the holy Scriptures as "angels, principalities and powers," Later came the creation of man, a little lower than the angels" and crowned with earthly honor, dignity and power, in the image and likeness of his Creator's glorious power. These creations varied not in degrees of perfection and imperfection. Each was perfect on its own plane. Each intelligent creature was a free, moral agent, and hence, whether on the angelic or human plane, was created in the likeness of God, unblemished, but with different capacities and abilities. Almighty God, infinite in Wisdom, Justice, Love and Power, purposed the orderly exercise of his infinite powers, as a great Father, destroys of giving life and happiness to his creatures. These intelligent ones were designed Sons of God, faithful to their attitude of perfect loyalty to him, their Creator and Father. Not only was it the Divine intention thus to give pleasure to millions of creatures to be created, but it was also the Divine will to manifest to his creatures his own greatness and the perfection of his own goodness that the night enjoy him and be enjoy the pastelling. We are not to understand that All might be lost was lonely in that great Eternity before creation began. On the contrary human loneliness is largest because of human deficiency What we lack we seek for in others. But the great Jehovah lacked nothing; he was complete in himself, he needed not companionship to complete or to supplement his happiness. It was his pleasure to create that his creatures might be led by reflecting as a divine qualitys implanted in their constitutions. The wrink of the human race produced by sin he well forewarned Nor did this wrinkling of human hopes defeat, nor was it in danger of defeating the Divine purpose. It merely demonstrates to angels and to men the graces of the Divine character and shows unto all the more fully the qualities of God proper to be appreciated and copied. The Seven-Sealed Scroll When God would illustrate to us his own great personality, when he would show to his creatures how he is working all things according to the counsel of his own will, he must adhere to them. Our reverence that is made to this utter words, in both words, of the purpose of the prophets was to instruct them with the lessons of the Bible. But he is generally portrayed as the sent of divine power, and authority for the Universe with angels as ministering spirits. Then is described a scroll, in the right hand of Jebovah—in Divine power and keeping. That scroll, written inside and outside, was "sealed with seven seals," representing the complete secrecy of the Divine purpose related in that scroll. From before the foundation of the world it had been in the hand (in the power) of the great Eternal. He had given hims respecting it and had caused it to be symbolized in the Law and to written in the scripture described by the Prophets. But still it was Hidden Mystery, because the prophets understood not the things which they wrote; nor could any understand them until the Father's "due time," which he had unpursued in himself. Not only was the Divine Program thus sealed and safely secreted, but it was the Divine determination that it should be given only to the one who would demonstrate his worthiness to be Jehovah's honored Agent for the carrying out of those purposes—predated before the world was. The honor of being the Agent, the Representative of Jehovah, to carry out the Divine purposes, should be disclosed in advance only to the one who would demonstrate his worthiness to be the great Messiah, the great Deliverer, the great Prophet, Priest, Judge, King of Israel. High as the Redeemer stood in the Divine counsels and fellowship before he came into the world to be man's Redeemer, it was not then granted even to him to know all the mysteries of the Divine Program. But by virtue of his high station, his perfection, his obedience, the privilege was given to him first to become man's Redeemer, at the cost of personal humiliation and death, and then, if faithful in this redemptive work, it should be his to obey the Divine command, and to execute the Divine Program to its completion. First, he must manifest his devotion and loyalty to the Father, ere he could be trusted even with the knowledge of the Divine Program. "Worthy Is the Lamb." All this is declared in the account (Revelations v). The proclamation was made. Who is worthy to receive the scroll and to break its seals and to exercise the wonderful purposes of God! None was found worthy! Finally, one demonstrated his worthiness—he left the courts of glory, he humbled himself, he "was made flesh." More than this, being found in fashion as a man, he consecrated his all to the doing of the Father's will, even unto death, the death of the cross. Wherefore, says the Apostle, "God also highly created him" and gave him a standing, a rank, a title above all others (Fallipauns 1, 7, 9). He commissioned him to execute all the Divine purposes and to him he handed over the scroll with the privilege of opening its seals and comprehending to the full its meaning. In the symbolic picture John saw a freshly slain lamb at the same time that the angelic messenger declared that the Lion of the tribe of Judah had prevailed. Jesus proved himself worthy and therefore the privilege of understanding the things of the Divine Plan, and the privilege of executing them rightfully belonged to him. The Lamb slain represented the work of Jesus from the day he was thirty years of age and made his consecration. There he became dead to self and to the world. When he successfully finished this great contract, he cried on Calvary. "It is finished." This glorious victor was then acknowledge by God and by the holy angels to be the worthy One to whom the Father would entrust the execution of every feature of the Divine Program. "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive glory and honor, domination and might." He has not yet completed his great work there and then entrusted to him. The Father glorified him and set him at his own right hand—the place of Divine favor—when he finished his demonstration of loyalty even unto death. As yet he has only begun his great work. The blessing of the Church as "the Bride, the Lamb's Wife, is the first step in the glorious procession of the life. Following it will come the blessing of the world, all the families of the earth, not only the living but the dead. His declaration to those now called to be his Bride is: "To him that over cometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne even as I overcame and am set down with my Father in his throne" (Revelation lll, 21). "To us there is one God," says the Apostle. All wisdom and power are his. Recent electrical inventions assist us greatly in apprehending his greatness. What man can do limitedly with the telephone and wireless telegraphy merely hint to us of the infinite resources of the Eternal One—from everlasting to everlasting, God. But our knowledge of the Divine Justice and Love satisfies our hearts—our Great Creator becomes "Our Father, who art in heaven." Next Lord's Day, D. V. I will have something more to say to the large congregation of millions whom I adduce by the Holy Spirit, the method by which the Almighty God all things according to the counsel of his own will, using his glorious Son, Messiah, his First Begotten, as his honored agent in the prosecution of every feature of the great Plan which he purposed in himself before the world was—when he was alone.

Philadelphia, Pa. Jan. 4—The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the only National fraternity composed entirely of young Negro college students, has just ended a laborious and successful con- tention in Philadelphia, Pa., with headquarters at the Baltimore House in the same city. The sessions of the convention began December 1st, though the con- tention ended on December 8. The chieftain kof this year's convention was toward the perfor- fection of the constitution and secret workings of the fraternity. It is be- come clear that the matter, as they now stand, are almost stable enough to remain as a permanent working basis. Though difficult in attainment, the delegates feel that the arduous work and social sacrifice Delegates to the convention were as follows: Cornell, James L. Brown and Joseph R.

Regular Correspondence of THE ACM. The acronym is officially announced the Medio Chirurgical Institute began its series of talks to the public last Thursday evening. This the initial meeting was to read a paper entitled "Hygiene and Its Bearing on the Health." It was a splendid meeting to the audience upon this most important subject. The five other physicians in the audience engaged in a discussion, which was no less interesting. The audience experienced something akin to shock, but more really amused at the pain in their hands. It was recommended that we have more fresh air, use water more freely for inhalation, and be especially careful to our diets. LAWYER F. B.

SCHMIDT 450-800 PRESIDENTIAL ADVERTISE IN THE MARK DEATH OF GEORGE W. WALKER GEORGE F. WALKER, member of the renowned team of William and Walker died Friday afternoon in one of the state assults located at Central Ship, 1, of pneumonia, at the age of thirty eight years. Although the deceased had been under treatment at the institution for mental trouble for several months his death came as a surprise to his many friends and admirers. Funeral services were held over the remains Monday morning at 11 o'clock in the chapel of the J C Thomas Undertaking Company, 89 West 14th street, Rev Hutchets C Bishop, rector of St. Philips Church, officiating. The last rites over the remains were short and simple, the Rev Mr Bishop making a few appropriate remarks, after which two hymns were sung, one being a solo, "I Need Thee Every Hour," by Arthur Payne for many years, a member of the Williams and Walker Company. He was accompanied at the organ by J Rosamond Johnson. The chapel was crowded during the services, and hundreds were unable to obtain admittance Mrs. Aida Meyers, the mother of the deceased, attended the services in company with Bert W Williams, while the widow, Mrs Ada Overerton Walker, was accompanied by Mrs. Lottie Williams. The floral pieces were numerous and handsome, the casket being covered with flowers. Cuspson us were floral designs from the Frugs, of which the deceased was a charter member, the Colored Vaudeville Beevil Association, the Clef Club, the Smart Set Company and a large floral piece of Masonic design from Bert A Williams, bearing the inscription, "My Dear Old Pal" From Monday morning until late Tuesday afternoon the body lay in state, and Tuesday afternoon from 1.30 to 3 o'clock the New Amsterdam Orchestra gave a sacred concert in memory of the deceased. At 5.30 Tuesday afternoon the body was shipped to Lawrence, Kans, for burial, and was accompanied by Mrs. Mevers. Remains Viewed By Thousands. No higher tribute has been paid by the citizens of New York to any member of the race than was shown George W. Walker on Monday and Tuesday of this week. During that time the remains were viewed not by hundreds, but thousands, who availed themselves of the opportunity to take the last look at this noted performer, not out of morbid curiosity, but out of the high esteem in which he was held by all the performer, the business man, the minister, the doctor and the lawyer, wied with each other in paying homage to one who, by his deeds for good, had challenged their admiration and won their respect. Since the death of George W Walker it has been said that the colored theatrical world has lost the king of colored Thespians. I cannot help but disagree with this statement, for, to my mind, the general of the colored stage forces has shifted off this mortal coil instead. George W Walker did not assume the role of dictator so much as he filled the position of one in command—a leader of honest intentions possessed with the courage of his convictions—a man who struggled and fought for what he believed to be right. In the death of George Walker the stage loses no despotic monarch, but a black Napoleon, who was no dreamer one who dealt in the realities of life, who was a race man in all that the phrase implies, who was a gentle, yet a resolute leader, whose influence has done more to dignify the colored performer and the profession he represents than all others Career of Noted Comedian. George W. Walker was born thirty-eight years ago in Lawrence, Kans., where he is affectionately known as "Naah" Walker. He was hired by a doctor to appear with a medicine show, which landed him in San Francisco. While in San Francisco Mr. Walker met Bert Williams, and they struck up an acquaintance which ripened into friendship. They formed a partnership, which was the beginning of the career of this famous pair. At the time George Walker was the comedian, while Bert Williams did the straight work and sang ballads. After traveling with a minister troup throughout California for about six months, getting $50 a week space and cakes, at least making a contract to that effect, which was sold in up to the show was stranded in Hukou. They returned to San Francisco and secured employment at theatrical and Human's Midwife, where they trained two years. They were next given an opportunity to appear in volleyball over the Orpheum Grant and were sent to Los Angeles in the play-off at which had disappointed the manager. Although they signed contracts to play but two weeks they continued three at a salary of $40 a week. Although making good in vaudeville Williams and Walker were personally to quit the variety stage work for a medicine man who engaged them to go to Cripple Creek at a salary of $20 a week. The medicine man developed a case of "cold feet," however, and the team went to Chicago, not any too natty in appearance, neither had they been any too familiar with the dinner table. Williams and Walker were engaged to appear in the "Passing Show," but instead came East and joined the "Gold Bug" Company, which had but one week at the Casino in New York. The team was the only but of the production. After filling engagements with white productions the comedians appeared at Koster and Bials, where they were the vaudeville stars of the season, playing at the house for thirty weeks MUSIC AND THE STAGE darkey," which has bought out hundreds of imitators, that famous stage simul and his fame as a fashion plate of the sartorial art cannot be readily blotted from our minds. Yet, the man was a dominant force in the theatrical world more because of the service he rendered the colored members of the profession because of the opportunities he created than for the types he has originated. There are several colored performers to-day who possibly could ill Mr. Walters shoes is a straight man with some degree of success.

Theatrical magnate expressed the opinion that the day was far distasteful a colored aggregation would be given the opportunity to entertain a Broadway audience, that the time was not propitious. After spending months visiting health resorts in Michigan and receiving the care of his mother and relatives at his home in Lawrence, Kansas, he returned to New York and entered one of the institutions at Central Islip where he died. Dominating Force in Theatrical World. George W. Walker was a talented artist, a fact which cannot be overlooked. His character of the "dandy" George Walker disagreed with Mr. Erlanger which greatly vexed the latrine. He mediated left the offices of Klaw and Erlanger after a stormy scene, with the head of the syndicate in bad humor. The comedian vowed that he would prove that the claims of Mr. Erlanger were untrue, and act to work to accomplish that end. He had great satisfaction in seeing the big promoter in a box at the Majestic Theatre one evening during the long run of the --- EDITED BY Their success in vaudeville was the talk of the theatrical world, and was responsible for the public humor manifested at that time for colored acts. After their engagement at Koster and Balds, Williams and Walker were sent to the Empire London. Upon their return to America they played another long engagement at Koster and Balds. They then joined the Hyde Show with which were Maltiney and Heath Helena Mora and other well known white part timer. This was their last act with a white part timer. A Musical Comedy Star Wells and Walker then attempted to exploit several shows of their own, but they did not meet with my marked until they went under the man. argument of Hurting and Seasoning, appearing in the Policy Players, The Sons of Ham, and In Dahomey.

Breaking with Hurting and Season, the team produced a film with Michelle Kowalniewski, who put them out in the most protracted and contested productions. Messina. Different from Williams and them, they sign contracts to play under the management of I. Key, to take part in presenting the Sandals, and to two years they are still starred in Kendall Land. George W. Walker was last seen in Bandanna Land during the season of 1959. While playing at the Great Southern Theatre, Chicago, it was noticed that he was not himself, and the physicians advised that he take a much needed rest. In Louisville Bert Williams was compelled to appear alone, and Aida Overton Walker sang her husband's numbers. After spending months visiting health resorts in Michigan and receiving the care of his mother and relatives at his home in Lawrence, Kans., he returned to New York and entered one of the institutions at Central Islip where he died. Dominating Forces in Theatrical World. George W. Walker was a talented artist, a fact which cannot be over looked. His character of the "dandy William S. Walters dana Land." The author was a Broadway audience and a enormous business. Since the recent calamitous happenings in the colored theatrical world more members of th race have been set to seriously thinking than ever before, which is somewhat singular, when it is recalled that some very serious thoughts have been occasioned by those who make it their business to make people laugh people who are not generally accorded consideration of a serious nature. It is often charged that the citizens of the mini world are improvident, that they think too much of the enjoyment of the present and too little of the future. And even if this be true, the good that they accomplish should not be overlooked. One writer has said everything in the world that tends to make man happy is moral, anything that bursts into bud and blossoms and bears the trust of joy is moral, anything that wipes a tear from the face of man is good. Therefore, even if many a performer is deemed improvident it must not be forgotten that the happiness and joy he imparts bears good trust and he is a factor to be reckoned with. Of all institutions and influences, the Negro is one of the greatest civilizers of today and George W. Walker has posed an important part in the process of civilizing the white public with regard to what the American Negro of modern times really is. In years to come, when some of us of to-day and those of to-morrow look backward on his life and work, when we as a race become imbued with a higher regard to our history and of the doings of those who have gone before, when the Negro will have learned that it is not for the white man to first manifest a high appreciation of the history of his race, then the loss of George W. Walker will be more fully realized, and he will be revered and held as one of the great men of his time and of his people. TO GEORGE WALKER. Written for The New York Age Good by George.

CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY Empire Business League of Bristol Holds Interesting Exerolose—F. M. Runnels, Maj. A. D. Reynolds and Dr. G. H. Johnson, Speak. Special to THE NEW YORK ADR. Bristol, Tenn., Jan. 10.—At the eleven- anniversary celebration of the New- Business League of Bristol, held in the eleventh week at the Lee Street M. Church, Maj. A. D. Reynolds and Mary R. M. Runnels, of the board trade, were the principal speakers. President Clay, of the League, pre- Dr. C. H. Johnson, pastor of the Street Baptist Church, delivered an address on "Temperance." M. Rumnels said in part: When I came to Bristol last July I was struck with the evidence everywhere of your prosperity. I had just arrived from a section of our country where your people are fast waking up on the materials of life, and I felt that as I went about over Bristol observing things should observe your accomplishments, because, first, I have all the materials of Mississippi are, deeply interested in your habits, your encouragement and your future; and, second, because in entering upon a new city in a new city it has been my invariable custom to study not one condition, but all conditions. so in noting the evidences of industrial and commercial prosperity of the people of my race I did not, and could overlook the material evidences of your thrift. And I am glad that tonight I can bring to you the approval and the approbation of men who, though different race, are dependent alike. One general prosperity. Your business league in Brisbane of several years' successful history. You are unique in this respect. You are seeing the few of your race who have been able to organize a commercial organization and keep it so. You have been exceptional in that you organized a business league and have never persecuted it to flop over into the lap of designing politicians. I have profound concern. I believe this whole appreciates the wonderful history of your organization. I want to assure your organization that in all its good works it has the moral and may have the active support of the Bristol board of trade. In your efforts to build homes and establish yourselves in Bristol, in your accumulation of property of whatever description, you are working along the same lines as the board of trade. You are doing an organized work to increase property values; you are laboring to build up all the best material interests of the city; you have pledged yourselves to the support of industrial institutions, and in these things your work is parallel to ours" MIDDLETOWN CELEBRATION Mayor of the City Presides for Colored People, and Makes Capital Speech. Regular Correspondence of TUR ACR. Miller V. Y. Jan. 11.—For the first time in the history of this city, the colored people celebrated the Emancipation Proclamation. The ceremonies were held Thursday evening of last week in Linden Hall, before an enthusiastic audience of both races. Some of the city were out and expressed themselves as delighted with the exercises. The Mayor of the city, Rosalyn Cox, presided, and made a happy speech. The city council attended in a body, a choir sang plantation melodies and rendered other selections. The orator of the day was Rosco Simmons, who was introduced by Vaxor Cox. He was applauded by George He said, among other things, yeahty Lincoln writing with his right hand, here he with his sword, emancipate Nash, 100,000 slaves, many of whom doctor to children of those that held which had slavery. Fifty years after While he ourselves increased to the net Beber of 12,000,000, against the attack of the enemy we were dying out, and that twenty-five years more will find us eaten up by time. I do not count or claim the 250,000 that have crossed the line never to return. am proud to say that whether Nathaniel Newman twelve million of American citizens more loyal to the spirit of this whirlwind of democracy, gathered out of every clime, or more willing to lay down their lives for the flag which to all, save to them, is the symbol of equality and brotherly love. In this fertile valley are men who wore the blue in the great rebellion. Their sons are here. Here are many men who wore the blue even given of their wealth for the education of my race in the South. To these and to all I bring the message of progress, progress as wonderful as any table of trinity. The irons have been beaten into ballots; we pay taxes upon property valued at $500,000,000; our illiteracy has been reduced by 58 per cent: 50,000 young men and women have gained the beaches; we own 58 banks, ten of them in Jefferson Davis' state; 5,000 colored men practice medicine and more than a thousand practices in the womanhood stretching from ocean to ocean, and men illustrious in every art. This record we crown in our constitution to time and to his counsellor. We have learned the career of Lincoln's greatest landmark—Booker T. Washington. We have lived well. We ask of our countrymen everywhere only this, that we may be permitted to live better for the nation and for the nation's God. We nation could forget or forseke a people as loyal and as faithful as the American Negro has proven himself, and prosper. It would be the full men of all races gathered upon this continent by a power past finding out shall here be free indeed. At the conclusion of his address, Mr. Simmons was long applauded. The moving spirits in this celebration were Dr. R. Gumbe, the scholarly of Bethel, the popular pastor of the A. M. E. Zion Church, Dr. W. H. Johnson, both of whom are greatly loved by the people here. DOING EFFECTIVE WORK National Religious Training School of Durham Bringing About Much Good — Trustee Board Meets and Considers Institution's Future Special to The New York Aon. Durham, N. C., Jan. 10.—That the National Religious Training School of this city is doing effective work for the uplift of the race for which it was founded, was strongly evidenced in the report made to the members of the trust last week in Avery Auditorium of this school. Ds. Jas. B. Dudley, of Greenboro, chairman of the board, and Dr A. M. Moore, of this city, secretary, filled their respective positions. The meeting was a significant one because of the glowing reports made by Dr. Shepard and because the deliberations of the board revealed the fact that the members of the board are optimistic over the great good the institution in a short time will accomplish. Bishop Geo. W. Clinton, D. D., offered a resolution that was unanimously passed by the board to this effect: That the substantial progress of the school demands an increase of buildings and other facilities to meet the needs of the work. To use the resolutionowers the president to appeal to the public for its most liberal support for the institution that alone is filling a peculiar need for the people for which it is disseminating a wholesome atmosphere for the greatest good for the Negro people. To meet the aims and purposes of the movement and owing to the large number of applications being received for the many departments of the school, two more dormitories, larger auditorium and library, and a large number of missionaries for home and foreign work must be erected as soon as the funds are in hand. WHAT IS BUFFALO? Our Correspondent Proposes to Introduce Buffalo to the People, and Starts Out With the Population and the Churches. Regular Correspondence of The Ann. Buffalo, N. Y., January 11.—Your correspondent has so many times been asked about Buffalo and her citizens and people generally throughout the country, and some have even idea about them, that I have decided to give a complete, careful and accurate account of Buffalo's colored citizens, discussing a few each week. A residence of eight years in Buffalo me to give you an account, unbiased, and to present Buffalo to the country as she should be known. It has been estimated by some that we have a colored population here of about 3,000. I think this too jazzy and to be more conservatively believed 2000 will have about 22% will include all of Buffalo's colored population. To begin with, we have five churcha the oldest is the Michigan Street Baptist founded in 1827 and the Vineyard Church in 1837 and the St. Phillips Episcopal and then in recent years we have the Potter Street Methodist and the St. Luke's A. M. E. Zlon, formed from splits from the Mother Church in the street, and from Buffalo from point of service is the Rev. J. Edward Nash, who has been in Buffalo nearly 19 years, as pastor of the Michigan Street Baptist. Perhaps it would be better to have a refined Christian, cultured gentleman than is found in the person of Rev. Nash, a man who stands alone in Buffalo without an enemy, an outspoken minister, an outspoken against whom he labors to leave off the ways of the world. St Phillips, the beautiful Episcopal Church, is and has been for many months without a rector. This church is furnished completely, pipe organ and stove. It is a pity that the church is closed for lack of a rector. It is to be hoped that the wardens and vestrymen will soon see that this loss in the community is filled. Do you prefer British Methodist has the most congregation, Rev Smith pastor, but the church seems to be moving along very smoothly. The church which perhaps has had the almost phenomenal growth in the St. Luke's A. M. E. Zion, of which Rev. J. Taylor is the pastor Sunday nights in the church and Taylor is advancing with the spirit of the 20th century. The parlors and reading room of the church are always open for the young people. On Sundays the members if they wish do not have to go home and bother with a dinner preparation, for the large and appointed dining hall on the third floor of the church, but our beautiful dinner and after evening service also, instead of the boys and girls running to drug stores and soda fountains they can go up stairs, have their ice cream and go home. Rev. Taylor plans to build an institutional church and has the backing of some of Eur. wealthiest white citizens. For several years the church has maids, cooks, butlers, etc. in many homes, has raised and kept up the standard of wages and is supplying a long-felt want. Next week I will discuss Buffalo professional men. George H. Thompson of Laurel street, gave a stag party to his friends on Wednesday evening, and gave the twelve course dinner on Tuesday night in honor of the 88th birthday of his son, Fred Covers were laid for twenty, where all the appetizing vials were served in a manner to suit the most epicurean tastes.
