BEN DAVIS IS AGAIN INDICTED "Supreme Court Justice" Must Now Face Another Serious Charge District Grand Treasurer Graves Says Ben Davis Forged His Name and Notary Seal "LINK" JOHNSON IMPLICATED Graves Claims Recorder of Deeds Assisted Him in Getting Fraudulent Affidavita — Georgia Odd Fellows Disgruntled. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Atlanta, Ga. May 2.—Benjamin J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, and "Supreme Court Justice" of the Odd Fellows, and Henry Lincoln Johnson, Recorder of Deeds at Washington, D. C., and also Deputy Grand Master of the G U. O. O F, have become involved in a big scandal which has to date brought about the indictment of Davis for forgery. It is said that other sensational features will follow. Davis was indicted by the Fulton County Grand Jury April 14, when a true bill was returned against him. An effort has been made to keep the indictment from getting into the press, and Davis was only indicted after a hard fight, as he utilized all the influence he could summon to his aid, but to no good purpose. The indictment of Davis has made the split in the Odd Fellows wider, as the principal witness against the "Supreme Justice" is A. Graves, District Grand Treasurer of the District Grand Lodge of Georgia, who bears a good reputation and is an influential member of the order. It was District Grand Treasurer Graves who told the grand jurors that Davis fraudulently used his name and notary seal in a scheme to defeat three fellow members who are opposed to his leadership. Graves Makes Statement. District Grand Treasurer Graves made the following statement to TER As correspondent relative to the indictment I succeeded in having the grand jury of Fulton county indict B. J. Davis for forgery. The case was this T. B. Kelly. Isaac Humphries and William Parks were annotated to Dave and his interest, so he trumped up a charge and gets H. L. Johnson, attorney for the order, to father it. Johnson goes to a man named H. C. Galner and has him to sign what was purported to be an affidavit; I goes to a man named J. C. Horsgain and has him to do likewise. To make it valid and give it the appearance of an affidavit my name was signed as notary public. I am official seal as such was given to the S. C. W. and the forfees were used as evidence when Davis was one of the offenders. Ben Davis is a fine man. It is painful to think of him. Copy of Bill of Indictment.

May 1. The eighth annual commencement of the Utica Normal and Industrial Institute, of which William H. Holtzclaw is principal came to a close here last Thursday, William Pickens of Talladaga College, Talladaga, Ala., delivering the commencement address. Four young people received diplomas from the academic department and four from the industrial department. Rev R C Bedford of Bedloot, Wis., preached the annual sermon Sunday afternoon. His sermon, which recounted the progress of the Negro race from emancipation to the present, was filled with practical suggestions with reference to future accomplishments and dealt in a sympathetic manner with southern race relations. In recounting the progress of the Negro race, Mr. Bedford declared it to be the marvel of history, but cautioned the Negroes against becoming satisfied. He declared that the development of the family life, a love of home, the acquisition of property, the payment of taxes, the education of children and all the progressive steps of the black people were as much benefit to the South generally as to the black people. The class day exercises and the annual concert were the principal features of Tuesdays exercises. At the concert many popular songs hits from Negro shows were produced under the direction of F G Smith. The board of trustees held their annual meeting, to which Principal Holtzclaw rendered his report Diplomas from the normal department were delivered to Syllanus P Weatherby, salutatorian, D'J.O.

NEW YORK, TH NEW YORK'S UNIQUE CHARITABLE INSTITUTION Lincoln Day Nursery, Located in West 63d Street, Doing Good Work Gives Nursery $5,000 Yearly—Establishment of Home Due to the Activity of Mrs. F. Wawos. What is considered one of the most unique charitable institutions in Greater New York is the Lincoln Day Nursery, located at 202 W Sixty-third street, where colored children ranging in ages from six weeks to five years old make merry daily between the hours of 7 o'clock in the morning and 6 30 in the evening. At present the nursery is accommodating thirty-five inmates, and Mrs Emma E Green, matron, while admitting that she is no debater, asserts that she is confident that she would be able to prove in a public discussion that the Lincoln Day Nursery is one of the most useful charitable institutions in New York. Among other distinctions claimed by the nursery is that it is the only endowed colored charitable institution in the city. Each year the Lincoln Day Nursery receives $5,000 from a white citizen who is deeply interested in the work, and who has, within the past year, given $16,000 for improving and maintaining the home in Sixty-third street. He has been very liberal in his donations, and quite often calls at the nursery to see how it is being conducted. The Lincoln Day Nursery was founded a little over a year ago, due to the activities of Mrs Ernest F Walton, a white woman, who is deeply interested in the welfare of the race. It was through the efforts of Mrs. Walton that the public-spirited citizen endowed the institution and paid over $2,000 for remodeling the twelve-room brick structure occupied by the nursery. Institution Has Many Features. A little over a year ago Mrs. Walton learned of the burning to death of a colored infant and investigated the accident. She found that the child met death while its mother was at work Fearing that accidents of a similar nature would occur in the neighborhood. Mrs Walton set about securing funds for the establishment of a day nursery for colored children whose mothers were compelled to work during the day, leaving them alone at home. To-day the thirty-five children are given mothers' attention; receive three meals during the day, and good substantial meals at that and the mothers only pay five cents a day to the institution. The infants who are not old enough to be fed chicken, beef, potatoes, etc. are supplied with modified milk. Six percent are employed at the Lincoln Day Nursery prominent among whom are Mrs Emma F Green who is in charge, and Dr A S Reed the attending physician. Then there are two nurses, a cook and a houseman. A rental of $125 monthly is paid for the use of the building. On the first floor is located the Mary F Walter Kindergarten which is attended by children from four to six years of age between the hours of 1 and 12 o'clock. Mrs Masing is principal and is assisted by two teachers. Another feature of the nursery is the Child's Welfare Association which is composed of mothers who most weekly and discuss ways and means to improve their homes and the proper method of treating their children. Mrs Anna Holloway is secretary, and Mrs Mary Carraway, treasurer of the association. Although the institution was founded as a nursery, girls from six to fifteen are taught housekeeping, music etc. between the hours of 2 and 6 in the afternoon, under the direction of Miss Helena Emerson. Quite a number of the pupils give promise of becoming expert housekeepers. The Lincoln Day Nursery has every facility for furthering its work. 2,500 CONVERSIONS IN 8 WEEKS Dr Charles S Morris' Church in Norfolk, Vg., the Center of the Greatest Revival Ever Held in a Colored Church. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Norfolk Va. May 23 - All Norfolk is wild with religious excitement. Thousands of white people stand around the Bank street Baptist Church unable to get in, while hundreds of young converts join with hundreds of older Christians in working over from three to five hundred mourners. Last week was the most wonderful ever known in the religious history of Norfolk. Beginning with Sunday, when there were fifty-one converts, the number of conversions rose higher as the week went by, until by Saturday night 912 had made a profession of religion in the church Monday night there were 109. Tuesday 97, Wednesday 113. Thursday 232. Friday night 206. Saturday 26. Up to date there have been about 2,500 conversions in this one church alone, 250 have already been baptised, and there are 250 awaiting baptism Sunday, while it is probable from the number who are joining nightly that there will be about 1,000 additions. Many of the leading white pastors are attending the meetings. The saloons, of which there are a great many in the colored neighborhoods, are deserted. In one case the barkeeper was converted SDAY, MAY 4, 1911. and in another the tables gave up a $25 he was converted. coming on in the Bute th, of which Dr R.

Last week State Insurance Commissioner Joseph Button raised the suspension of the license of the order, which will be again permitted to do business under the personal direction of the Insurance Department of Virginia. Col. Button notified the directors, however, that the business of the True Reformers would have to be conducted on a systematic basis and along the lines recommended by him. A promise was made that his wishes would be obeyed to the letter.

Therefore, be it resolved, that we, the Directors of the Board of the Grand Fountain U. O. T. R. join in with the commonwealth in the efforts to capture said cashier. R.

Has Largest Circulation PRICE, 5 CENTS TENNESSEEANS BANQUET NAPIER Prominent Washingtonians Also Attend Dinner to Register of the Treasury Remarks Made by Prof. Kelly Miller, Gen. A.S. Burt, Thomas J. Calloway and Others Says South is Home of the Negro and It is There He Will Make His Worth Most Largely Felt. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE. Washington, D. C., May 2—In response to an invitation issued by Tennessee residing in the national capital, upwards of two hundred of Washington's leading factors in the political, religious, educational and business life gathered at a festal board Monday evening at the Odd Fellows' Hall to do honor to Tennessee's "favorite son," J. C. Napier, who recently assumed the post of Register of the United States Treasury. The speeches were of a superior grade, abounding in ripe philosophy, sparkling wit and bright repartee. The menu was toothsome and taxed the capacity of the season's market in supplying good things for the inner man. The guest of honor, Mr. Napier, was in fine fettle, and his address, in response to the many high compliments paid him by the speakers of the evening, was a masterpiece of eloquence, wit and refined sentiment. Joseph M. Trigg, formerly a member of the Board of Aldermen at Knoxville, Tenn., acted as toastmaster. In his response, Mr. Napier, in response to the high compliment and that by the gentlemen who preceded him, stated that he felt unworthy of the honors showered upon him, but recognized the responsibility which they entailed. He had no other object in accepting the post at Washington than to serve his country and his people to the limit of his ability, that whatever influence he possessed or could bring to bear would be cheerfully extended in behalf of those who were struggling to go forward. He knew the value of co-operation when great issues are at stake; he would take counsel with his brethren; he would ask their prayers and their substantial support, to the end that the best results might be attained for all. Napier declared himself for an optimist, the one to dark to day, but there is a fairer to-morrow ahead. All nations and all races have their periods of depression and of obstruction. They have overcome them by keeping their hearts clean, their spirit strong and their faith unimpaired—they have never lost confidence in themselves or their future. "The Negro has more friends at the South than he realizes," said Mr. Napier. "We must not permit ourselves to be noisy demonstrations of the great host of reads helpers and sturdy well-wishers among the intelligent and progressive white people of the South, who believe in the industrious and law abiding Negro and who are willing to accord to him all that is due a citizen and a productive force in the uplift of the Southland. This element is rapidly coming back to its own in the affairs of Dixieland, and with them at the helm the State of State will go grandly on, and the black man will go along with them. The South is the natural home of the Negro, and it is there that he will yet make his worth and power most largely felt and there he will work out his highest destiny." The Toasts and the "Toasters." The toasts were in exceedingly happy vein, and program was as follows: "The Negro in Politics," Prof Kelly Miller, "The Negro in the Army," Gen A S Burt, U S A, "The Negro in Business," Thomas J. Calloway, "The Negro in the Professions," Prof Rocco C Bruce, "Our Guest," Rev A C Garner, D D Supplementary remarks were made by William N Lewis, Assistant Attorney General of the United States, James I. Smith, chairman of the committee on arrangements and others. The Committee on Arrangements. The committee on arrangements, composed principally of Mr Napier's Tennessee friends, reinforced by prominent citizens of Washington and the states, was made up as follows: James L. Smith, chairman, Fritz R. Cansler, secretary-treasurer, Joseph N. Trigg, Dr A C Garner, Robert P. Rhea, Floyd A Roman, Dr I N. Rosa, Childress, Thomas Allaway, W E J. E, Gilbert, Gilbert, John Q.

See "St James' Hugh Call" in another column. Mother Zion One of the strongest features in Pastor Bolden's ministry is shepherding and training his people in the work of the Christian Church. While those who have known him best have taken note of this on a smaller scale, it was evidenced Sunday. In two discourses on the largest scape, possible. In the morning he discussed the general rules of the church, which he treated the Methodist rules and regulations with other denominations, and chewed why some of them, namely, the Catholic, Episcopalian and Christian Science churches had such a powerful influence over both young and old. He said that this was due to the fact that our teachers, preachers and older members did not emphasize systematic and thorough training in church work. He advanced the thought that we should train our people by having them to be leaders in the church and study the Bible with a view to understand the spirit of Christian service. In doing this the children will grow to have knowledge and respect for all Christian workers, and a special revival for ministers. The lamentable sentiment of the majority of the young people of our larger cities will be improved and in the coming generations will develop into a very strong and cultured class of Christian citizens. He dwelt upon the importance of church organizations and how they should co-operate with the pastor in the general uplift of the people. The remarks were deeply impressive upon the audiences at the churches and even the Christians who had no church home united with the church. The S. S. and Lycme and Christian Endeavor were well attended Mrs. T M holden, the district secretary of the Young Women's H & F Missionary Societies, attended the missionary convention which met at Nyack, N. Y, on last Thursday. Little Gertie Smith and Dorothy Small attended as delegates from the Buds of Promise, and Miss Carrie Quick, as delegates from the Young Women's Society. They all reported a pleasant session. The annual organization of the trustee bobrd took place at Mother Zion church on Monday night, May 1, and the officers are as follows, President, Mr. B. D. Fenderson, who succeeded Mr. H Porter, secretary, Mr W. W. DeKalb, treasurer, Mr W. W. who succeeded the deceased Mr. Brown age, Mr A A Rives.

We will serve special sermon will be practiced to the leaders and their members. In the evening a society will have him preach their annual sermon. Y. W. C. A. "The Old District School," a force in two acts recently given in the auditorium of the Young Men's Christian Association, for the benefit of the Bible and Physical Culture Classes, of the Y W C A, did not fall short of its purpose, in creating laughter and in netting a neat little sum for the furtherance of the work. Last Sunday was observed as Missionary Day. Mr Broadnax addressed the meeting on "Our Mission" and many took part in the general discussion of the tople. Next Sunday afternoon, Miss Margaret Batcheler will be the speaker. The Choral Class is preparing for its annual concert, and the Bible Class has taken new life with its new tune of Table dady.

The proceeds are expected to be large Church of St. Benedict the Moor A Special Location will be held in St. Benedict's church West Fifth street on Friday of this week, called the "Holy Hour" beginning at eight o'clock. The church will be filled with Blessed Sacrament and was suggested by the words of the priest Our Lord to his apostles in the Garden of Gethsemane—"What, could you not watch one hour with me?" The custom has grown in the Catholic church of shaving this watching and the places once a week in others once a month. The Fair in the church hall still continues. Every night there is a short entertainment. There are so many beautiful things on the tables that a shift to work will make the voting contests are growing in interest and young and old are beginning to get excited over the result. There are some wonderful dolls on exhibition, also many pieces of ratio needlework and value items. The fair opens every day at four o'clock. Of course on Sunday it is entirely Mt. Olivet B. Y. P.

Abyssinian Baptist Church In the spring of 2014, I headed to a sixth anniversary of the Abraba Baptist Church in New York, taking a break and meeting the Board of Trustees. Warring the garden of the barn was to show that in the providence of God the slightest word spoken to the smallest doll in the barn would be heard. The Friendly Sunday is an organization of the Abraba Baptist Church which pays $5 a week to its six members and $75 a week to the smallest doll. A present membership is $72 with each account of $600. During the last year more than $1,500 were paid out in sick and death benefits. No one can join the organization without a share. Mr. Samuel B. Sherrett is the president. St Mark's Church Rev Brooks filled the pulpit at 11 a.m. and preached to a large and enthusiastic audience, including the subject, "Paulus Acknowledgement of His Own Imperfection." The human heart ignores the things it has and longs for the things it has not. The lowest thing, entirely ignoring that which is highest, noblest and best. No one should be contented with his limited mental capacities. Conversion may be instantaneous but the development of Christian character will go.

Many come into the church because of good intentions but no one should be contented with mere conversion or the need for a church. We are individual for the beginning of the Christian life which they must live out in their daily lives. The new convert is simply a little child, as it will and must grow and develop into strong Christian manhood and Christian womanhood. We must have a high ideal, and most ever strive towards our goal. We must be dominated by one supreme purpose: make Jesus Christ carefully follow the teachings in His divine word we cannot and will not lose our way. In the evening a most beautiful and appropriate cannita will be written titled "A Morning in the Orient," under the efficient management of Miss Edith E. Leonard. This cannita clearly depleted all the important scenes surrounding the death and resurrection of Christ. The leading parts were as follows: Reader, Miss Drusilla Vanbrakle, soprano solist, Miss Dora Jackson; duet, Miss Maggie Dudley and Irene Parker. The tablature and Eworth learnings are all well attended. A special entertainment will be given on Monday evening, May 8, in the interest of the White Rise Home. The program begins at 8.15 sham. Y. M. C. A. Notes The Bible Class of the Young Men's Christian association had a solicited meet. The Sunday School was held. Life Problems. The subject was 'The Young Man and the Church'. The relation of the young man to the local church was the lesson had to be carried over until next Saturday for completion. Assistant Secretary J. E. Elmendorf had charge of the lesson. (John Elmendorf) Rev George Sanderson, Chaplain of the Tombs, spoke last Sunday afternoon on the subject: "The Moral Effects of Prison Life." He said that if a man's heart was set right, than he can be entered, but in too many instances the prisoner leaves prison more hardened and confirmed in his ways than when he entered. He told of instances of men who under the sobering influences of the prison system, and almost Christians, and had come out and gone into the world and have made themselves shining examples in their community. He argued the men present to become prisoners, and the need for a sociation, and do all they can, not only for their own betterment, but also to assist others in their efforts toward a better life. "I have been thinking," said he, "while your secretary was talking to me in my room, I saw a man with 28 colored men and 13 colored girls. Now of course there were more white people than there were colored; but I think you will admit that the proportion is altogether higher than the singer of the Tombs, the present and sang. Next Sunday afternoon Rev Dr. Prakt, the rector of All Souls Church, will speak. All men are cordially invited. The Ladies Antillia will hold a public meeting at All M F Church in Harlem. The public is invited. HARLEM'S NEW HOME Ladies' Auxiliary of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Under Mrs. Haley Fisk. Open a Home for Colored Working Girls. In the heart of Harlem in one of the most thickly populated blocks, is situated the Home for Working Girls, at 134 West 134th street. This house has been rented and furnished by the Missionary Committee of the Auxiliary of the Cathedral of St John the Divine Mrs Haley Fisk is chairman of this committee and she has given not only of her time and money but her personal interest and attention to matters connected with the Home. The house, a brick house three stories and basement with all modern furnishings and janitor service, has been furnished and comfortably most attractively and comfortably furnished at a cost of over seven hundred dollars. The doors have been thrown open to those desiring such privileges as the Home affords. In the City of New York there are few such places where women and girls who earn a living and who are alone find proper lodging and boarding facilities, and set there are such girls who work in the city and ever increase in numbers. This House is only one of the institutions some with which the plane is lodging. The plane is the privilege of the House. It is a conductor of family life and friendships, there are persons with illustrated scenes where the social life is with the social life is with the amuse- The class is useful and benefit of life in the Home. A very class of classes is formed for instruction along instructional lines. The class in cooking is taught by a graduate of the Pratt Institute on Thursday afternoons. There is a class in Irish race making light by a competent teacher. The class in Irish class receives a study that is a great demand but at least for real Irish life. This class meets on Thursday. The class in sine- nce meets on Friday. Practical dress maker meets on Tuesday. Dressy desti- nition is also given in library and music. The choral works meet on Monday evenings. It is intended from time to time to add other classes to the needs and desires of those who wish the advantages of the Home. These classes are open not only to those who live in the Home but also to any who wish to enter them. Nor are the little ones neglected. The back yard which is large and attractive has been thrown open for the use of the little girl of the vicinity. The boys and girls have joined the Penny Provident Fund, a branch of which is at the Home, and they are taught to save their pennies. In fact the Home is intended to be a place for good in the neighborhood. It is the sincere wish of those in charge that the Home may be a strong influence for good along all lines, practical, industrial, social and religious.

C., May 3—A large compose mostly of colored stained intently to a stirring colored by the Hon James Brassassador to the United Great Britain, last Sunday at the Howard Theatre, befor Young Men's Christian Assoc. This city the ambassador benefit of the assas- race in producing good col- lors. He took occasion to sincere friendship for the Negr in America and expressed the dear that a larger friendship exist in future. In the progress of the colored America, the ambassador said in 1871, "We must atone for what our pro- gram did to yours by adding you to our ranks and to the highest pinnacle attaining the highest pinnacle of civilization and progress. This is not obliteration resting upon any one country, but upon every nation that was instrumental in taking your ancestors from their native lands England, Germany, France and Portugal, all were responsible for taking Ne- groves and the present generation to stand by the acts of their ancestors and to get you that we are properly educated." The meeting was presided over by Dr Wilbur P. Thirkeld of Howard University. The speaker of the after-commissioner Henry R. F. Macfarkland, Others on the platform were United States Commissioner Anson Taylor, Dr Galletd of Galluet College, and Geo Otis Smith, president of the Washing-ton Association. It was stated at the meeting that Julius Rosenwald of Chicago had become interested in the association work at Washington among colored people and that he will probably sum towards the work of this city. A meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association of the Deanwood School was held last evening at that building where more than a hundred citizens of Deanwood and adjacent communities assembled to hear Mrs. J. W Hefferen of Chicago. The speaker to the International Child Welfare Congress recently held at the capital, confined her remarks to the problems which interested that assemblage most vitally at its last sessions. Dr. W S Montgomery, supervising principal of the 12th Division of public schools, also addressed the meeting before which was resolved an open question was asked which parents and others took lively interest in the discussion aroused by Mrs. Hefferen's talk, and ventured to offer from their own experience various solutions to the problems of which the speaker had made mention. Delegations were present at the meeting from the South Central Citizens Association, Northern South Citizens Association and the Palmount Heights Citizens Association. The meeting was presided over by Mr. J. L Chestnut. Charles Waters, a young colored man connected with the Treasury Department, is now seeking a patent at Washington for an oil which he is producing, which is for all practicable purposes. Waters is the owner of Waters, who is from Leesburg, has made several demonstrations of the properties of his oil before gentlemen from that city, and is now making demonstrations for various capitalists who are going to put his patent on the market. In his demonstrations Mr. Waters has opened the centre of a red hot showel. The oil remains in one place and does not glow. G. Smith Wormley addressed the Bethlehem Literary and Historical Association at its meeting last Tuesday on the subject of "Canadian Reciprocity." Mr. Waters opposed the reciprocity idea. He opposed the need of Stevens Caird, rather than the Intracultural Chess Club will hold the annual tournament meeting on the second Saturday in May at the residence of James Lucas. The Intramurals played a close tournament after having fallen out in the following week. Guy Lucas, Murray Lennard, and platoon dropped out of the tournaments. The final meeting has provoked a cameleer between the active members of the association being Dr W Bruce E. Brooks, R R Horner, I Roscoe C Bruce, and A J Albert.

Depew Saturday night before the Montauk Club. It was not the Senator's first remarkable speech, however, and we hope it will not be his last. For this club, that observes every birthday of the celebrated New Yorker, he surveyed every interest and development of government, touching upon the astounding legislation that has been put on the books in the abused name of Progress in the last decade, and weighing with the skill of the master the influences that have wrought great changes in the attitude of the citizenship with respect to the functions of the constitution. In another place is printed that portion of the Senator's remarks devoted to the wicked disfranchisement of colored men, and to the struggle now going on in the Congress between the statesmen who favor Federal supervision of the elections, as provided in the constitution, and those who seek to make disfranchisement permanent by delegating the right of supervision to the states. The statesman observes without opinion, and without prejudice, but he knows what would have taken place thirty years ago if colored men had been robbed as they are now robbed, of a right for which they fought on the battlefield "There would have come, through Henry Ward Beecher," said Mr Depew, "from Plymouth pulpit, an appeal which would have aroused the whole country." And so it would have come. But Beecher is among the dead, Depew among the living. Why did he not make an appeal, from the floor of the Senate, to the country, against the shame and wickedness of disfranchisement; against the indifference of the pulpit and the malice of the press, with respect to the rights of those that have always been and will always be the bulwark of freedom? The crime is Depew's, and all like him, who have voice and power and are yet silent before injustice and weak before swagging prejudice. Depew sat where once sat Conkling, a might giant, who saw oppression but to challenge it. Why did not Depew speak<sup>3</sup> SWEET IGNORANCE THE AGE has long claimed that the daily newspapers of the country knew less about colored people than the press of England. Let us give an example of this sweet ignorance. The Sun, the know-all journal, reports the return to these shores of Bishop Isaiah B. Scott. Bishop Isaiah Scott of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, who has jurisdiction over the Negroes of republic of Liberia, arrived yesterday by the White Star Inner-Baltic Bishop Scott is not of the African Methodist Episcopal Church. He is a Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the only colored Bishop on the bench. He was elected in 1904. The majority of colored people were very unconcerned in the election last Tuesday and many refused to vote, saying that they had nothing to gain. They have no representation in the day and the same in the county. Not one position which they can point to with pride—Colorado Dispatch We hope that our contemporaries will not encourage colored men in Colorado in any such tomfoolery. Wherever colored men may vote they should vote, whether they have representation in the government or not. Let them fight out their battle within the party with which they are allied. If they lose, fight again. Keep on fighting for, insisting upon, requesting representation. Common sense teaches that if the colored men of Colorado do not have "one position which they can point to with pride," they may not even hope for one such if they refuse to vote. The colored men in New York city nor State, have proper representation, but they are bright and early at the polls, both in the primaries and in the elections. In due time they will get what is coming to them. It took the Irish one hundred years to elect a United States Senator from New York. Suppose they had refused to vote all these years, or in any one of these years? Bishop Scott is reported as advising American Negroes to remain in this country Happy but needless advice The Negro was here when the foundations were laid; his hands helped in building the temple; and he will be among the chief mourners when the structure goes to pieces. This is his land; it is the land of his children. A SOCIALISTIC OBSERVER. Victor Berger is the one and lonely Socialist member of the American Congress. He hails from Milwaukee and seems determined that Schlitz shall not have all the glory for that city's future fame. Mr. Berger is having the time of his life in his new job A few days ago Mr Berger introduced a resolution to abolish the Senate of the United States and substitute the referendum' Dear Sun Before we caught the second breath in recovering from the shock that followed that roll of thunder. Mr Berger comes forward with a second suggestion of equal interest He moves to overturn the Constitution Just as well do it now, observes the Socialist, for in ten short years the people themselves are going to rise up, destroy the ancient chart, and write with the pen of Progress a new law, and it will be a law for the Present. These wild words of a heavy heart, burdened with the reformer's zeal we refer to the Springfield Republican and the Albany Evening Journal. Berger makes a strong argument: People say the American Constitution is elastic. They believe this doubtless when they say it, and I really believe that they think the Constitution can be amended to suit the situation of the United States. 1800 there has been one amendment to the Constitution—the abolition. Was that amended to suit the needs of the country with ease? The fifteenth and the sixteenth amendments cost this country $100,000. 1800 it took the greatest war of modern times to make that one single amendment, and that amendment is virtually valueless. The American Negro does not execute his right of suffrage for which the white men of the country were abolished and died. He is robbed of his right to vote at every election. Every word of that is true, with the interpolation that colored men also did some bleeding and dying on the battlefield to the number of 200,000, if that information is worth anything to a Socialist. The Negro is robbed all right of his right to vote and of a great many rights of many another sort. And unless he recovers the right to vote—the first important right for him or for any other class of citizens in this or in any other republic—this nation can never survive. History teaches that. Every dictate of honor and justice teaches that. Great Lincoln advised a Louisiana Governor to bestow the suffrage upon intelligent colored men, for, observed the greatest statesman, they might prove a power in keeping the jewel of liberty intact. Time will prove Lincoln's wisdom. Comprehending in an astonishing measure the genius and purpose of republican institutions, colored men may yet be called upon to protect the stability of the government from the encroachments of socialistic treason and the wicked designs of unscrupulous men operating under the flag of labor. Free speech, a free ballot and a fair count is all that colored men request from their Government. Providence dispenses wisdom in its own way, a way past finding out JERSEY MOBS A white woman was murdered in New Jersey last week. A colored man has been arrested in connection with the crime. He is in jail. The people in and around Lakewood are agitated and hot words freely flow. The Agr directs the attention of the press of New York to the worst of a colored man in connection with another crime in New Jersey. That was several months ago. The man is not hot and wanted to touch the police. Not long ago a white man committed the crime. In Jersey the rule is to arrest a colored man let no prey in. President Taft delivered a good speech before the Hungarians of New York last week, and made what the country girl called much of its "impress." Next to the President's easy and deserved compliments the Hungarians liked his pronunciation of their language that is, as much of it as he attempted. Tiny Ace is glad that the President is glad that the whole country seems to be glad of the debt of the Hungarians to successfully fuse themselves in the new American race. Some of these days when narrow-minded men are happily gathered to their fathers, and the common brotherhood of man is given a show-colored Republicans may get a President to eat beefsteak with them and tell them that they have made good men in war and good men in peace, and that he is glad that despite the hysteria of the murmurs they have fused themselves all through the new race that is making this continent its first home. --- Rev. Reverdy Ranom pastor of Bethel A. M. F. Church, New York City, has the unmitigated nerve to condemn colored newspapers because they did not speak out against the lynching down in Kentucky. The governor said that a minister lies, but he did all that for the Illinois Chronicle's first editorial last week was on the Kentucky lynching at Ivermore. THE NEW YORK AGE, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 1911 Rev. Ransom says that colored newspapers are ever ready to sell their "birthright" for a mess of pottage. This is another untruth—Illinois Chronicle Come, Cary, come, and be careful of the uglier word. Dr Ransom said no such thing. What do you suppose The Ace would do to Dr Ransom, or anybody else, if any such charge should be lodged against the Negro press? The press has no warmer supporter than Reverdy C Ransom RAISING CHILDREN In McClure's there is a story of Harnett Beecher Stowe's girlhood. Harnett Beecher was a sweet and lovely a child a jewel in a family of stars. She was a Yankee, a true Yankee, bhnest, faith, strength! Her father's name is in history. His children got into history because of him and despite him In her home Harriett Beecher and her sisters and brothers, including Henry Ward, paid devotion to their mother, but obedience was their father's tribute. He was the ruler and the lawgiver, and he taught his children in the fundaments of correct living. Each was his special charge, and each heard in his commands the final word. They loved him, and found in him, in their youth and in the years after, the ideal man. Their character he shaped, and he shaped it with a stern but loving hand. Their minds he taught to think, their hands to toil, and their hearts the true grandeur of obedience. He loved them, but he taught them that children must honor their father and mother, for to such as give honor to these, to them the days shall be many and long Fifty years ago ambition got a strangle-hold on the American fathers, and the fathers gave up the care of their children to wrestle with that which undid angels, and wrecks all who struggle against its powers. To the mothers, and, stranger than stars shining in day, to Hebrew mothers also, was given in addition to their burden of bearing children, the burden of rearing children. We see the result of the shift each minute in every hour of the day. The children are taught that looks, not character, is the means of getting-there, that pleasure, not happiness, is the end of life, and that home is a retreat for sleep and collar changing. The influence of women-gentleness, indecision, curiosity, dress, social aspiration and misdirected ambition, is reflected in the children of the present, who have no respect for age, and to whom a parent's word carrere little of authority To mothers and to children, and to society alike, it is unfair to put the entire responsibility of children-rearing upon women. It is enough that they should bear them. Lyman Beechers are not fathers picked up everyday everywhere But the man honored by fatherhood ought to teach his children the correct way of life, and he ought to emphasize his admonitions by his daily walk Why do the children of prominent men, as a general rule, amount to so little in the affairs of life? Because the fathers are engaged wrestling with ambition, and leave the children to the flowered hands of motherhood A JUDGE INDICTED The captivating beau of joyous Dawson editor "Chief Justice," Bily-white steel pigeon, and otherwise highly honored, stands before the people of Georgia indicted again, this time for forgery. The Grand Jury of Fulton County returned the count against him April 14. Stricken grief kissed, grief bowed in his extremities he has our best wishes. We wish him well. The facts in the case go home, not to Ben who in his ignorance is not wholly responsible for much of the wickedness God at his door, but to the Honorable Henry Lincoln Johnson. Recorder of Docks for the District of Columbia Mr. Lincoln may with propriety engage the high person and prestige of the Hon. Frank H. Hitchcock to estimate his black Friday from the masses of the law. Unless he can shut himself of every scent of import will he embark on Mr. Taft by inviting upon the high honor to which he was elevated because it supposed righteousness? What is taught with we weave. When it does we practice to die. A man who stands around in barber shops and in salons standering and backgrouding absent friends who wish him to all, will never amount to much with the people. His big position if he told any, cannot add to him. On the other hand, he belittles his big position to be hold any. The common street gossip, no matter what his other virtues were, has ever been the contemptible among real men. We know of only one use where he has risen above his crowd, and this was due to the tardiness of strong men in going to the people. A two faced man is more to be despised among real men than a serene. In a short review of Edgar A Forbes' great book, "The Land of the White Helmet," a story of Africa, the A M E Renew says that the book is pessimistic, "for the writer evidently believes the white man will control the destiny of Africa and its millions." We do not like the idea, of course, but does he not now control it? And is he not making great headway in all parts of the continent? THE LIGHT. Speaking before the Society of International Law, Saturday last, Mr. Taft told us who taught him the ways of politics. Elhu Root is his mentor, his guide and his Supreme Court. "I began my political life under him," said Mr. Taft, "and I suppose I shall continue to walk along in the uncertain path that he directs." Now we know, and all who read as they run, may know, why Mr. Taft has refused to appoint colored Republicans to office in the South; why he has removed competent colored men who filled places of trust with honor and distinction, and why he fails to crush the illy-white serpent that poisons the bosom of the party. Ah! Root! And sitting in a seat once filled by Roscoe Conkling "Uncertain path" is the observation of the President. And uncertain it is. Mind out, Mr. President, that it doesn't lead to the pool of destruction, for it winds through forbidding meadows. A HAPPY SUGGESTION The observant Plaindealer of Indianapolis, with local pride, notes with happiness that the "colored Democrats" are planning to hold a convention in that city, and seeking to help, in providing a program of merit, makes the following happy, timely and wise suggestion. The colored Democrats are going to hold a national conference in this city some time soon. Wonder if they will invite Congressman Hardwick of Georgia address the convention that the virtues of his bill which he recently introduced in Congress to repeal the 14th amendment? We are sure that the "colored Democrats" will not lightly consider the perfectly proper suggestion, for the unwon but winnable colored voters in other parties should be taught in the ways of Democracy by the chiefs of the party Hardwick is a chief. Mr. Tillman, Mr. Vardaman and Mr. Hokus Smith, of Georgia, might also grace the occasion, and speak words of authority. It is no affair of ours, moss-back Republican as we are, but in order further to enliven the program we suggest that upon the evening of Mr. Hardwick's ap pearance the gavel be entrusted to the strong hands of "Col." A. E. Manning Democrat of Democrats. NOTE AND COMMENT Edward D. Green is the only colored member of the Illinois General Assembly. Mr Green is an able man and has been a helpful and an important force not only among Chicago people, but in the wider circles of public affairs. He is an acknowledged leader in the Negro's greatest fraternal body, the Knights of Pothas. The Illinois Chronicle in the following language, commends Mr Green's splendid work at Springfield. Our local representative in the State Legislature, Edward D. Green, is making a notable record at Springfield. On all occasions he has shown a keen appreciation of the requirements of his position as a legislator and guardian of the State and people's interests. In opposition to the recall bill he marked the unintentional and a quick recognition of its defects that forced a compromise on some of its original provisions. The Chronicle feels that too much praise cannot be given to Representative treen for his devotion to his publiee and untiring zeal to secure a clear understanding of general public questions. He is a credit to the race. May he live long and prosper! The awakened interest in the women of the colored race is as general as it is gratifying. Everywhere strong men oppose the women themselves are putting forward in the work of progress. The Durham Reformer makes the following interesting comment A race is no better than its women. The progress that colored women are making in morality and feminine attractiveness is truly remarkable. When women are doing with the unrestrained assaults which the law permitted and public opinion sanctioned upon the chastity of our women one cannot but be struck by the wonderful efforts which have been made in the abrogated traditions of centuries. At present there are more colored women than men and in the higher walks of life this is markedly noticeable. This difference in the number and social status of women to the disfavor of the colored woman. There is an added difficulty in that those men who are schoolmen find that that it is late in life before the marriage contract can be entered and the disadvantage of the colored woman. Every needful step ought to be taken to protect the virtue of our girls and boys and it is possible that early marriages would go far toward eradicating the moral progress of the women and men alike.

The Bright Side" is the name chosen for the directory of Los Angeles, Cal., which came to our desk last week. It is as useful a book as we have seen, and those responsible for it deserve much praise. In addition to the business houses, churches, etc., among colored people the book contains a complete book of the inhabitants of the town. There is useful information between the covers, and the striking points in the progress of the colored race are emphasized. The name of all the important leaders of the race are called. The editor got dizzy when he reached his climax, and words failing him, he cannonplans Booker T Washington in these rapid flips.

POLITICAL NOTES The Manhattan Club gave a dinner in honor of Senator O'Gorman last Saturday evening Senator Depew could not be present, but from another banquet hall he sent the following autograph note by Edward M. Grout: If a Democrat must in the wonderful dispensation of Providence be a Senator of the State the Senate and the State that the Senator is that most genial and lovable of men, one of the ablest judges, my friend Senator O'Gorman The Republican National Committee is without a Chairman, to whom party leaders may turn, and it is also without a Secretary. In the golden days of the party all Republicans knew that Perry Heath was Secretary of the Committee and that Mark Hanna was Chairman, also that to these men and their supporters the rank and file of the party could always go for advice and help. New York has one of the two men big enough to be Chairman of a Republican National Committee Indiana has the other. The Charisma ship might well fall on William Barnes, Jr., of Albany or Harry C. New of Indianapolis. There should be an active Chairman The Pittsburgh Counter is up in arms against certain Republican members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly, who last week either refused to support the Bass Civil Rights Bill, introduced by the only colored member, or absented themselves when the vote came off. The Counter promises to remember the offending members. It is very likely that colored Republican voters in other sections of the state will also remember their representatives who deserted the candidate. All along the line the Republican Party is making blinders, and to an outlook already dark is added unnecessary confusion. Pennsylvania is a Republican state with or without the support of colored Republicans, but in the larger cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh colored men are a needed party asset State Chairman Barnes, who gives happy signs of getting into history as one of the great political leaders of the country, is as sound as a gold dollar on the true purpose of government. In a statement issued during the week, he pays his respects to the hypocritical mouths of latter-day politicians who are willing to sit at the Constitution to obtain public office. Mr Barnes says. To exemplify what I mean by sophistication, I quote from the speech delivered at the Wolffest Saturday morning. Willie should apologize to his hearers for the insult to their intelligence which these remarks convey. These were his winnings twenty years I preached to the students of Princeton that the referendum and recall was bosh. I have since investigated and I want to apologize to those students. It is the safeguard of politics. It takes power from the boss and places it in the hands of the people to work with all my power that I favor it. When he taught the Princeton students that the referendum and recall were both he apoke from his brain, he now speaks only as the ambitious aspirant for a higher public office. The following remarkable letter and comment appeared in a recent issue of the Savannah Tribune. A judge confesses his crime, but he hasn't the courage to hang himself. A colored man elected to support Judson W. Lyons for National Committeeman sold out in cold cash to a white man by the name of Blun sold out, it is claimed at the instance of Ben Davis and Luk Johnson. So many cases of this kind among colored men in the South have happened during the last fifteen or twenty years that much of the respect once enjoyed by colored Republican leaders has vanished. The letter and comment follow I am carefully reading your able editorials each week and I want to say that the editorials in your last issue were the oldest I ever read. God made me write about funnelment truth. I have read carefully all you have written about Rum, and you have told the whole truth. I am goodly sorry to my heart that I worked too hard in usefulness but I was not much improvement over Mr. Rum. I am with you. I expect to stand in your fight for free publicity organization. I want to be a skilled writer. My trouble is mine. I am with you in all your undertakings to better the free community politically and fraternally. (Signol) C. 1 THOMAS This is astonishing impersonation. Indeed it is surprising. This man Goel Thomas is a colored man was elected delegate to the last National Reunion vote first last and all the time for the election of the Hon. W. Lyons for the National Committee from the State of Georgia. He did not obey his instructions. He did not keep the third district, but for renaming the senal to himself and known only to himself he voted for the rich man Mr. Blun whom he is now abusing. The Republicans of the state want nothing but a senal and a very little of the witty son of Erin said. The party never conferred an honorary commission on one who so worthy won it as did National Committeeman Lyons. He stood for the party and treatment of all of its members in season and out, in sunshine and in storm. He was alert, active and an untriling worker for the party men. The colors he wore before embarked on before enjoy such recognition as they did under him as their representative. Seven first class offices in the state, they had never had half that number before. They have none now. The interests of the men in the suburbs have been mocked after, and then where is the man who so courageously fought reduction of representation all over the country beginning twelve years ago and keeping it up to the last as he did. This is the face of F. Mann and it is well you should remember it. It is not forgotten by the party men of this state and it will not be. If your conscience is prickling you for the ugly part you played at Chicago and your political sins, but do not even by scant praise attempt to slur a man who has never faltered in the performance of duty. THE NEGRO PRESS Emancipator and Slave. Mr Slowe is the true son in soul and spirit as in physical relationship, of his sainted mother who has been canonized by the prayers and tears of a grateful people, and the hope, which as an instrument of Divine mercy, brought to a depressed race, he encourages the minister in his speech Wednesday night. We thank him for his brave, sane, hopeful advice, and shall endeavor to live up to it. And, of course, Dr Washington, who is the prophet of optimism, could not fail to be an inspiration in his heart. Long may he live, lead and guide, counsel and advise us.—Charlesian (S. C.) Messenger. Not a Dynamiting Race. Dynamite as an element of power has never been used by the Negro as a means to express his dissatisfaction with existing social or industrial conditions. He knows nothing about the nature of his content is content to work out his own salvation by pursuing peaceful pursuits that are not inimical to the security of life or property. His presence in this country is looked upon as one of the nation's greatest problems. But when we take the Negro and place him along with the great problems he has not so bad after all—Indianapolis World. And Growing Every Day.

(Takla, Tribune) SWALLOWING A CAMEL The Confusions Incident to Congress The Resolution Are Many. (From The New York Tribune) (From the New York Release) It is hard to see why the frames of the process of federal Constitution providing for the popular election of Senators, which the House of Representatives approved last week, did not go a step further and try to shift control of the elections of Representatives as well as of Senators from the Senate. It is conceded that the power of Congress to alter state regulations affecting the times, places and manner of choosing members of Congress applies now to both Senators and Representatives. Section 4 of Article I of the Constitution and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives shall be prescribed in each state by the Legislature thereof, but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations, except as to the places of Senators in the amendment which the House of Representatives wants to submit to the states for ratification besides directing that Senators shall be elected by popular vote, surreprising entire control of such elections to the states not with manifest government's control of the federal government's control of Representatives unimpaired. The inconsistency is the more glaring in that the proposers of the amendment want to wipe out old distinctions between the method of electing Representatives and the method of electing Representatives, in that the two processes practically their program Senators are to be treated for election purposes as Representatives at Large. In states which have only one Representative the same voters will vote on the same day for a Representative and a Senator. The number of candidates for the two offices must be alike for the same senator. Yet if the amendment which the House of Representatives has indicted is ratified the paradoxical situation will result that Congress will return full power to regulate the process in which the states represent in the lower house is chosen to will have to choose about the process by which it elects the representative in the upper house. Having done their best to deliberate existing distinctions between Senators and Representatives, based on the manner of their choice, the advocates have set out how and even more clearly that of subjective not subjective to federal regulation. They want to make the states absolute free agents in the matter of selecting Senators, but they should be desirable that the states should be free agents in choosing Senators that they should be free agents in choosing Representatives. Why not abolish federal control entirely? The Democratic majority in the House of Representatives has made better shown the courage of its constituents it had sought to amend the Constitution at three points instead of two destroying all along the line the power of the nation to control the processes by which its legislative officers are elected the Senate and the Supreme Court has declared to be the maintenance of the integrity and authority of the national government. THE GREAT CHANGE Depaw Reviews the Changing Attitude of the Country Towards the Rights of Colored Men. (From a speech delivered at the Montauk Club, Brooklyn, April 29, 1911) One of the most extraordinary of the changes in the period we are discussing is our attitude toward the Negro. I speak of this because of close contact with the question during discussions in the Senate on the amendment to the constitution to change the method of electing United States Senators from the legislature to the people. I there found that the sentiment which so overwhelmingly placed in the constitution the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments for the protection of the Negro had decreased to an almost utter indifference to his civil and political rights. The theory under which we permit immigrants of every grade of intelligence to become citizens after a certain probation is that under our common school system, our free education and the influence of our institutions they will be worthy of that high privilege The results have justified the theory We do this also in the belief that it is dangerous to have in our midst a large and increasing body of allens who neither enjoy nor can be permitted to enjoy the privileges and responsibilities of citizenship. Many states in which there is a large Negro population have by various devices deprived them of the suffrage. Of course, this is in violation of the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments to the constitution These states greatly fear that some time the question may reach the Supreme Court of the United States in such a way that the court may decide against this legislation. So when the resolution was offered during the last Congress to change the constitution by simply saying that hereafter United States Senators should be elected by the people instead of by the legislatures, these states which deny the Negroes the right to vote made the demand that they would not support the proposition unless the provision of the constitution which has been there for 125 years giving the United States supervisory power over the elections should be repealed. A few days ago this question came up in the House of Representatives. The resolution amending the constitution was reported from the committee with this repeal of governmental supervision, and in that form it passed the House by the affirmative vote of three-fourths of its members. The resolution as it passed the House not only changes the method of electing United States Senators, but leaves the qualifications of the electors who shall vote for them entirely in the discretion of the state legislatures, which means that no Negro will ever be permitted to vote in a great many states for a United States Senator and means that the restrictive laws have their buttress for their perpetuity if the question comes before the Supreme Court. "Suppose this action had been taken, I will not say immediately after the civil war, with its heat and passion, but thirty years ago." There would have come through Henry Ward Beecher, from Plymouth pulpit, an appeal which would have aroused the whole country. Every pulpit in the northern states would have rung with denunciations of this burgain and surrender. All the great newspapers would have joined and mass meetings everywhere would have voiced the public indignation, but with the exception of a criticism from a few newspapers, there is apparently no feeling left on the subject in the country. Encouraged by this vote, the day after a resolution was offered to repeal the fourth amendment of the constitution. AN IMPORTANT CONFERENCE. The Tuskegee Races Conference Will Be the First to Be Held on the Colored Man's Territory. (The Indianapolis Phlaudale Booker T. Washington calls an International call on Negro next year is being well commented on. It is the first call to place before the whole Negro community. Thus far only one Negro question is a British question, and it is a British question in Africa and Canada and the Wardies a French question in Western Africa a German and Portuguese in East Africa a world war in the case of Liberia. A British question is the attendance of the conference, the representation of the broad field which reaches from the Cape to Verde. It is well that the meetings be held at Tuskegee, where those coming from abroad will be able to see the president and most effective gadget of the project in the surrounding of the highest degree of affection with them.

THE KEYS OF DEATH AND HADES "O Hades, Where Is Thy Victory!" Pastor Russell of the Brooklyn Tabernacle preached on the Resurrection, approaching the subject from another standpoint—the destruction of school, hades, the grave, the state of death. He said:—Death is spoken JEREMY HUTTON is throughout the Bible as an enemy. merely hymn-book theology presents as a friend, an angel sent of God. death is introduced to our attention in the Bible as the penalty for sin, with distinct understanding that had not transgressed the Divine commands he need not have died, nor have been cast out of his Eden zone. St. Paul emphasizes the fact that death is the penalty of sin and that the resurrection of the dead will come to mankind as the result of the captive work of Christ. He says, since by man comes death, by man comes the resurrection of the dead. For as all in Adam die, even so in Christ shall be made alive; but every man in his own order," band or short (1 Corinthians xv, 21-23) Death a Ravenous Monster. As Genesis introduces death as a penalty for sin, Revelation concludes the great drama by pointing out Christ's victory and the destruction of sin and death, the release of all the members of Adam's family from his sentence and eventually the bringing of all the willing back to fellowship with God and to eternal life. Between these two extremes of Divine Revelation are the assurances of the Prophets and the words of Jesus and His Apostles explaining the processes of redemption and reconciliation. St. Paul summarizes these with the statement, "By the man [s disobedience] sin entered into the world, and death as the result of sin, and thus death passed upon all men, because all are sinners. * * * As any man [s disobedience] [the] many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall [the] many be made righteous" (Romans v. 12, 19). In the poetic language of Scripture path is symbolically represented as a great monster which has been swallowing up the human family, never fulfilled The Divine proposition is that whoever would meet the requirements of Justice against Adam and his might purchase or Ransom them and have full right to deliver them from the prison-house, the tomb "The Last Enemy"—Death St Paul points us to the great Deverer, the glorified Messiah, at the time when He shall take the Kingdom under the whole heavens and begin the fulfillment of the prayer He taught us, Ty Kingdom come; thy will be done earth as in heaven" He tells us He must reign until He shall have put all enemies under His feet—"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death" Cormthiants xv, 26). "O Death. Where Is Thy Sting?" **O Death, Where is Thy Sting?** Then will be brought to pass the Divine prophecy. "O death, where is thy sing? O grave, where is thy victory? (Hossein xill. 14, I Cor. xv. 55)." We must notice when this will be brought to pass. It is not now true the sting of death is in us all, for, as the Anatistic explains, Sin is the sting of death. And because all have been sting to sin all are dying. It will require the entire Messianic Age to only extract from humanity the virus, the sin, of sin by bringing mankind to perfection. Only as the sting of death is removed will the power of death be caused because it is a part of the Divine, so that "The soul that sin death, is that death. Now now has its sting. It is when that which is perfect shall have come the sting will be gone, the life, the function and weakness will be gone because for sin will also be gone. Not: then, will be brought to pass saying "O Haden, where is Haden, sheol, the grace, has been having a victory over Adam's face for sixty centuries. And its factory will not be entirely overthrown until the Belemer shall have delivery of the power of the grace the last of the human family for all of them. He died the Just for the end; he is back to God." The Apostle says with the colony of Christ's Kingdom, with the crown of all mankind from the earth and Death death will be saved up in Victory. The Apostle praised from Hoson xxII 14 where I will ransom them from them from death (Death plagues) (gradual destine tion) (grave school). I will be thy destine description repentance shall be hid from the eyes." The Almighty will change or turn from this de- clare, death and the grave, sheol hodes. It is hell, are to be destro- ed. Every member of Adam's race is to be destroyed by Him Who redeemed all, except those who after abundant opportunity will not obey the great De- ferrer those will be destroyed from among the people (Acts III, 22, 23). At the "Third Grant Day" of Famous Pittsburg Club and Extols the Life of Douglass. regular Correspondence of Trip am. Pittsburg, Pa., May 3—The greatest social event of the season was given by the Loends Club last Thursday evening when the "Third Grant Day" banquet was held. Judge Robert H. Terrell, of Washington, D. C., was the guest of honor. Some of the most prominent men of the race were present. Covers were laid for two hundred. Assistant United States Attorney General W H Lewis had accepted an invitation to be present, and his coming was looked forward to with interest, but while the merry banquetters were gathering a telegram from Washington was read by Attorney F. R. Steward stating that important business in the Department of Justice prevented his coming. Judge Terrrell was at his best. He spoke on "Frederick Douglas," telling of the life and character of that powerful man. Others who spoke were Attorney J Welford Holmes on "Grant As He Looms Up After Death" W M. Randolph, assistant solicitor on "The Negro Lawyer," John W. Henry on "The Days of '61," and S. R. Rosemond, who read an original poem that writer Giants baseball team of which J H. Gray is president have permanently organized and have signed up to play their first game at an early date at 36th and Liberty street, also at Homestead. A WORTHY SCHOOL Founded by Henry D. Davidson and His Wife, A Tuskegee Graduate, the Centreville (Ala.) Institute is Doing Good Work. Begarlar Correspondence of The Agr. Centreville, Ala., April 25 —Centreville Industrial Institute was organized in a little shanty inside the incorporate limits of the little town of Centreville, Alabama, in September, 1900. The first session was opened on the present site in 1901 and the school has been carried on here, during the scholastic term, ever since. There are three buildings, one a two story building used for chapel and classrooms, the second used for dormitory and dining rooms, and the third used for store and office. The farm consists of 85 acres, 50 of which are opened and used for cultivation of corn and cotton, and all kinds of garden vegetables. The enrollment this year is 145; four teachers are employed A splendid drill, in the English branches, is given the primary, intermediate, grammar and normal academic grades From the normal academic course in last May, three young men and two young women were graduated. These secured certificates and are now teachers in the country rural schools. Cooking, housekeeping, sewing and laundering are taught the girls, while the boys cultivate the truck patch, white-wash and work upon the farm. Henry D Davidson, a graduate of Pavee University, Selma, Ala., and his wife, Lula J Davidson, now deceased, a graduate of Tuskegee Institute, were the founders of the school Mr Davidson, the principal, is now in the North soliciting funds to carry on his work. The school is very much in need of a dormitory for girls ($2,500), a brick-yard establishment ($7,000) a combined woodworking, shoe and blacksmith shop ($500) and $1,000 to help pay teachers' salaries and other urgent expenses The board of trustees consists of such men as the local bankers, County Superintendent of Education and other leading white and colored citizens as well as a few prominent individuals who do not live in the state. This board of trustees was incorporated March 14, 1904, according to the laws of Alabama. Anything donated to this school will be properly accounted for and used as directed --- Drake's Branch Notes Special to THE NEW YORK AGR Drakes Branch, Va., April 25—An exciting baseball game was pulled off here Monday between Drakes Branch and Houston, in which the score was 8 to 1 in favor of the home team.

Some people have been sent to hear the association do anything." The town took up the chorus. The Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias was on his official visit here recently, and he was pleased with the K of R. & S, and the editor of the Pioneer has this to say about that officer "We accompanied the G C on his official visit to Westmoreland Lodge, Greensboro Pa., last week, where we found in attendance the Scoutdale, Pa, cornet band, and a number of visitors from adjacent towns. The G C was escorted to the armory hall where he delivered a brief address, after which he went to the Castle hall, where he proceeded with his official business, which was dispatched as rapidly as possible. Sir Warwick Anderson the K of R and S, had his record in excellent condition and could refer to anything of importance without difficulty. He is really one of the strongest men in the lodge and his services to the lodge are almost indispensable. A splendid repast was in waiting for the G C at the close of his services."

WALTON # THEATRICAL COMMENT NEW YORK newspapers have been devoting no little space to the re- cent presence in Manhattan of W. Stewart Robertson, a retired and wealthy insurance broker of Montreal, Can., and father-in-law of Gertrude Townsend Robertson, formerly a member of Cole & Johnson's "Red Moon" Company. It was rumored that Mr Robertson was in the city for the purpose of annulling the marriage of his son to the former colored chorus girl, but the young couple deny that Father Robertson came East on any such mission. Young Robertson met his wife while the Cole & Johnson show was playing in Montreal last winter. He became deeply infatuated with the fascinating "girl in the front row," and a few weeks later followed the company and induced Miss Townsend to elope with him. Some months ago the couple moved to New York and are now residing in an elaborately furnished flat at 139 West 135th street. THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S HISTORY MUSEUM GERTRUDE TOWNSEND ROBERTSON Former Chorus Girl of The Red Moon Company Who Married Son of Wealthy (canadian) GERTRUDE TOWNSEND ROBERTSON Former Chorus Girl of The Red Moon Company Who Married Son of Wealthy (canadian) In speaking of the visit of the elder Robertson to New York, Mr Robertson has issued the following statement My father and sister were here recently and stopped at the Manhattan Hotel. They visited us at our home and appeared to be very well satisfied with our marriage. My wife and I are living happily together and I see no reason of any attempt to annul our marriage. --- While the song "Suwanee River" was not especially written for Mime Sussieretta Jones (Black Putti), yet no singer has become so closely identified with this well-known composition so suggestive of Southern environment as the race's leading soprano. For fifteen years Mime Jones has delighted audiences with her artistic rendition of "Suwanee River," and judging from the agreeable manner in which she dispensed dulcet tones over the footlights at the Columbia Theatre, Newark, last week, she will be winning applause with "Suwanee River" for some time to come. Mme Susserretta Jones is really a remarkable woman an artist whom biographers contact overlook in days to come when giving historic references of performers past and present and their accomplishments. Long before Williams and Walker, Ernest Hogan, Cole and Johnson and other colored comedians had won name and fame Mme Jones was traversing this country singing "Suwanne River" and other numbers to the great pleasure of hundreds of music lovers. To-day her voice still possesses that sympathetic rich timbre which made her famous years ago. Singers have come and singers have gone, but "Black Patti" continues to heed the call of the footlights and she says she has no idea of retiring at a near date. --- It was Theodore Roosevelt who made popular the term "strenuous life," but Mme. Sissieretta Jones must be regarded as a devout disciple of that doctrine. Few singers have led such a strenuous existence as she. During her theatrical season over three-fourths of her itinerary consists of one-night stands, and one-night stands are not regarded with a friendly eye by performers as they encounter so many inconveniences, they say Mme. Jones has undergone all the hardships that go with one night stands and "is still in the ring." Each season "Jolly John" Larkins appears to more advantage as a comedian, and he is responsible for nine-tenths of the laughs in the show. This season he is the principal in many amusing situations, and he has two good songs. "Great I Am" being his strongest number. The presence of Jennie Pearl strengthens the cast, and while she has not much of a speaking part she attracts favorable attention in her songs. Her principal number is in the last act with "Jolly John" Larkins, and is entitled "Say You'll Be Mine." Jerry Mills has been with the company but a short time, yet his hand can be seen in the staging of numbers. He is also doing the straight work and is a good foil for Larkins. Alice Ramser, who is new to these parts, is a comer, and in time should be a clever soubrette. Gray J A Grant, Arthur Coates, Zel Bledseaux, George Bray, AL F. Watts and William Crawford P S - When the show comes to New York the chorus girls who are inclined to makeup unusually light (for some unaccountable reason) had better beware What the white critics will say about them will make them blush even under their grease paint.

CLEE CLUB ENTERTAINMENT. Everything is in readiness for the third semi-annual appearance of the Cefl Club Symphony Orchestra, and it is highly probable that more people will hear the "Clefites" Wednesday evening, May 11, at Manhattan Casino, than on previous occasions. It is predicted that the entertainment will be given with the S. FEO. sign doing duty. One hundred and twenty-eight members of the Cefl Club are advertised to appear under the direction of James Reese Europe, and fifty mandolina, five bass violins, ten violins, two flutes, ten 'cellos, one organ, twenty-five harps, three tapani and drums, ten banjos, two clarinetes and ten pianos will be used. During the evening a minstrel show will also be presented. The performance will start promptly at 8.15 o'clock. CRESCENT THEATRE A well balanced bill was presented at the Crescent Theatre the first part of the week. A big time act, which was billed under the name of "Dorothy Windman and Picks," did headline honors, and was the most entertaining number. "Miss Windman" is assisted by five picks, four of whom are the life of the skit and dance and sing in lively fashion. The fifth pick is very small and cute, but is excess baggage. "Miss Windman" was evidently trying him out before going over the big time. Sing Fong Lee, a queueless Chinaman, did not sing as his name implies, but he proved quite an entertainer as a violinist. J. C. Payne seemed to please with a falsetto voice, and Brown and Jones (no, not a colored act), did a neat singing and dancing turn. SMART SET AT MAJESTIC New Yorkers who have been wishing that a colored show would invade Manhattan before the season closed will be pleased to learn that the Smart Set Company, headed by S. H. Dudley and Aida Overton Walker, will open at the Majestic Theatre, Broadway and 59th street, Monday evening, May 8, for a two-weeks' run. This is the first time the Smart Set Company has played a Broadway house in New York, and Manager Barton is strengthening the show. Andrew Tribble will be seen in his familiar female role, and Jim Burris will be the straight man. Ella Anderson, Alberta Ormes Dudley, James Lightfoot and others will be seen in the cast. The management of the Majestic Theatre has announced that colored theatre-goers will be given the privilege of buying seats in any part of the house, the orchestra not excepted. THE MARTIN REGITAL David Irwin Martin gave conclusive proof of what he is doing in the musical world Tuesday evening at the fourth annual public recital of his pupila, which was given at Manhattan Casino. He had good reason to state to the audience at the conclusion of the recital that he felt highly encouraged in his work, as those present, by generous applause, showed throughout the evening that they appreciated his efforts and those of his pupila. Mr Martin was further prompted to make the statement that he felt highly encouraged by reason of the favorable impression made by his six-year-old son Master Eugene Mars Martin, who is really a bud of promise in the realm of music and one who, under the proper outing, should bloom into a philologist of the first water. Although in years his age the rest water had dozen, this youngster shows that he is no stranger to technique and he seems be quite advanced in elementary harmony. His bowing attracted unusual attention. On the program were other pupils who also did themselves proud, Mr J A Mason in particular. His execution on the violin is deserving of praise.

Two hundred colored athletes responded to the invitations sent to the various established and reputable clubs and schools in and about the city, and it is said that the meet brought together the largest aggregation of colored athletes that has ever assembled in New York State. Unattached entries were not accepted, as it is the purpose and endeavor of the Smart Set organization to strongly unite every colored athletic club of standing in the East. Prizes costing $160 proved a big attraction—eliver loving cups being presented to the individual winners of the various races; medals to second and third.

Patterson Joseph Arthur Williams William Franklin Chester B. Moore Homes Ningland H. B. Dismond, representing Howard University, was the star attraction, capturing the 220 yard dash and 440 yard run in spectacular style and record time, and thereby winning the Point Trophy for Howard University, single-handed and alone. The Intercity medley relay race caused great excitement. Will Murray's grand race in the half mile event gave the Alpha club, which won for them this race, and the handsome Bert Williams Cup together with silver medals to the individual runners of the team. W. Stokley of St. Christopher Club outdistanced the best colored mile runners in the city when he won the one mile event amid the enthusiastic cheers of all present. He is unquestionably a lot older than the runners of the 440 yard run was declared "no race" by Referee Major T. Donovan, as Diamond of Howard was knocked completely out of the race by one of the spectators on the first time around. 1910-1911 SMART SF From left to right: Edwin F. Moore, John Ree Smith, Frederick L. Bell P. C. William Franklin Chester necessitating the race to be run over again. The basketball game was greatly hampered in commencing by an unnecessary argument over the selection of officials, the match, however, was the most exciting that has been witnessed in New York this season. The St. Christopher team started off with a rush and in a few minutes had the score 9 to 2 in their favor. When the Smart Set team caught their stride every man held to his position so firmly that the score at the end of the first half was a tie, 10 to 10. From the start so exciting was the second half that in spite of special officers and officials, spectators could not be kept in their seats. Both teams played like demonne—fast, clean and furious. Point by point was scored first by one side and then by the other; it was either team's game. In the last minute of play with the score 20 to 18 favoring St. Christopher, they committed a four Capt. Lattimore of the Smart Set, coch and collected, toed the line and with amazing ease shot the goal which tied the score for the second half, ending 20 to 20. As soon as the officials had settled upon the rulings of the play-off, both teams were at it again, more furiously than before. The Christophers in their effort to hold down the Smart Set players, who were like a steak of lightning, committed another foul, which was tossed by Lowry. And then with a pass and a dash down the full length of the court, Lattimore caged the winning basket and Smart Set won 28 to 20. The contest was the third game of the St. Christopher-Smart Set series. St. Christopher won the first game at Manhattan Casino. Score 28 to 15.

Last Monday night, pursuant to the call of a committee of public spirited citizens, between four and five hundred earnest and intensely interested colored citizens packed the chapel of the undertaking establishment, 89 West 13th Street, listened to eloquent addresses by the Rev. R. C Ransom, the Rev. Dr. A. Clayton Powell, James L. Custis, Esq., Charles H. Smithwick, Esq., and Ed. D. W. protesting against the rising tide of violence against the Negro in this country. The first speaker, Dr Powell, in burning eloquence, discussed the lynching horror at Livermore, Kenyatta, which he said. "In no civilized country, the lynching of a civilian America, could be found a parallel for this defiance of law and outrage of public decency." While there are great forces at work within the country calculated to impede the progress of the war on the speaker, "and demoralizing to its best hopes and aspirations, there are forces within working with effect, called the potent." He severely challenged the speaker. Harlem for their shifttiness and denounced the Negro men and women residing in Harlem, and other parts of the city, who befoul their own homes by immoral practices and indulgences in where they reside. Dr R. C. Ransom, who his usual unimitable skill carries off its feet, with an impassioned denunciation of the discriminative tendency of the age against the civil and political status of the Negro in this country. He denounced, in unmeasured terms, the resolution offered in the National House of Congress, calling for amendment of the Constitution of the United States, authorizing the election of United States Senators, direct vote from the people, and giving the states power and authority to fix the place, name the time and manner of holding such elections. He declared that it was in effect, giving legal sanction to the disbranchishment of the Negroes in the South, by turning them and the hostile Southern States, and that it was to practically nullify, if not indeed ensuing the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Counsellor Curtis said that 'while agitating for the sake of agitating was not commendable the time was ripe when the Nervous in this country must march of pride even against the stealthy march of prosecution and discrimination over the boundaries of the UK. Iverson's line to the west, the east, and New England in this country and to Europe and the Islands of the Sea abroad Chief Lee was roundly applauded throughout his remarks, and his address was one of the features of the occasion.
