PYTHIANS ARE IN A QUANDARY
Lodges in South May Have to Change Name to Preserve Identity
THE MISSISSIPPI MUDDLE
Courtention is that Grand Courts of Calanthe Have Right to Govern Themselves.
CASE OF LONG STANDING
Controversy will be Brought up at the Coming Meeting of Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias.
Little Rock, Ark., May 23—As the time for the meeting of the Supreme Judge, Knights of Pythias approaches, the issues and differences that will come up before that body and its affiliated organization, the Supreme Court of Calamite, are being discussed pro and con by the faithful throughout the Southland. Among the questions apparently before the members and the delegates more than any other is the one of change of name. Upon that, all are agreed that something must be done if the organizaion wishes to hold its identity in the faith.
A question which seems to be agitating the members more than any other in the case of the Mississippi Court of Ganette In July, 1909, at Moss Point, the Grand Court of Calanute held a most successful and harmonious session, its officers were elected and duly imputed by the Supreme Counsellor, John Straub. Without any objections being offered as to procedure, the Grand Court adjourned. Some time after the adjournment of this body some session who carefully wanted to be officers, but whose names were not offered at the time of election, made charges against the State Court before the Supreme Counsellor, who, without trial, went to the court of the would-be office holders, thereby arousing discord in the Grand Court.
No one was ever tried on the charges preferred but the Supreme Counsellor took the case before the Supreme Court in Kansas City. In the exercise of its commission, it charged it at the committee provided for and entitled upon an "exparte" hearing of the prejudices, where only the committee the Supreme Counsellor, the would-be whichiders were admitted. Finally the committee appeared upon the door of the convention with its report the objection which was the impeachment of the Rev W A Scott, Grand Worthy counsel of the Grand Court of Mississippi.
Comprise Temporarily Effected.
In the first of harmony and brotherly love, with the order stands, the comrade is entered upon a compromise. The promise provided that he declare not the Grand Court of Alabama the constitution of Mississippi, and grant the Worthy Counsellor should be well known, that an extra session of the Court should be held in Green. Vise, and that a Supreme Court Court should attend this session, will to have been held on the 8th of October.
With the understanding of the compromise, sooner had the parties committed to the respective homes from the Supreme Court at Kansas City, than the Supreme Counsellor gave it out that the Court officers involved in the case would be tried upon new charges preferred at this special session, and that he would preside at the trial session in conjunction with the Supreme Court Committee. The withholding charges being renewed, and the Grand Court of Mississippi entering, by name of this edict, the organization was forced into the civil courts of Mississippi in order to protect what it considered to be its rights according to the laws and usages of the order.
The Grand Court of Mississippi conduced and now contended that the Grand courts of Calanthe have the right unto the Supreme Court of Calanthe laws govern themselves; that the Worthy ministors of all the grand courts have the right to preside at all the sessions these courts, that the Counsellor, the Supreme Court and Supreme Court committee can only try causes originating in courts on it appeal; that the Supreme Counsellor can try questions of law but not of fact, originating the court below the Supreme Court; all questions of fact originating in court below the Supreme Court must be tried in the inferior court and ought to the Supreme Court on appeal and not otherwise, that in no case the Supreme Patriarch ever try a grand Court officer, suspend a Grand chapter or withdraw the same. These things bring about the condition of the port of the Grand Court Mississippi they declaring that the Counsellor John W Strauther, his lifetime and the Supreme Patriarch, A. S. W. Correne, have disregarded laws of the order. Edicts have been and suspending one set of officers of Grand Court and matalling others.
TO PUSH CHARGES
Counsellor Wilford H. Smith Says Booker T. Washington Has No Intention of Dropping Case Against Ulrich.
Dr. Booker T. Washington intends to prosecute Albert Ulrich, the white ruffian who assaulted him some weeks ago, despite reports to the contrary. Counsellor Wilford H. Smith, Dr. Washington's personal attorney, says the case is being pushed as rapidly as possible.
"The public must understand," declared Counsellor Smith to a representative of The Ace, "that the case is primarily in the hands of the District Attorney's office, and is properly the State of New York versus Ulrich. The prosecution can be reshaped only as fast as the District Attorney's office can do so."
Dr. Washington was in New York a few days ago conferring with Counsellor Smith relative to bringing the case to trial, and stated at the time that Ulrich's prosecution would not be dropped by any means.
VERNON LOSING GROUND
Other Names Being Favorably Mentioned for Ministership to Haiti-Kelly Miller and Dr. J. R. Rush Wilder in the Race.
Special to THE NEW YORK AGE
Washington, D. C., May 24. In the trend of political discussion at the capital the ministership to the Haitian republic is becoming the topic which absorbs all others. The discussion is featured by the mention of names of more than one citizen of this community for the high salaried position. At the present the name of the former register of the treasury, Hon. W. T. Vernon, is thought to be overshadowed by the names of certain well known Washingtonians who are more or less characters of national importance. It is thought that Kelly Miller, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences of Howard University, is possessed of the diplomatic ability to make a dignified and successful minister to the little republic. Many of the well known professor's friends are urging his name and pointing out to those who have the appointment under consideration that the professor towers above his present position so far as to justify his being put into a situation where he would have greater voice in the adjustment of the darker race to the standards of modern civilization.
At the same time another Washingtonian, a professional man, has received all of the indorsements which are considered of worth hereabouts. Dr J R Wilder, who has succeeded as a physician and has taken the lead in this and other communities not only in various political and educational affairs, but especially in securing the adoption of practical measures for the extinction of tuberculosis among the colored people, will announce his candidacy, it is thought, within the next few weeks when the matter is taken up by the President. Dr Wilder has recently traveled through the southern republics and has made a careful study of the business and political situations there. He is known to many of the important South American business magnates, and for this reason it is thought, he would make a marked success as a minister to the little republic which lies near to where he is likely to invest his capital.
FREEDMAN HOSPITAL EXERCISES
Graduating Address Delivered by the Rev. Dr. Hughes, of Baltimore—Diplomas Awarded by President W. P. Thirkind of Howard.
Special to THE NEW YORK ACK
Washington D. C., May 24 —The annual commencement exercises of school for trained nurses of Freedmen's Hospital were held here Friday night at Andrew Rankin Memorial Church, Howard University. The church was crowded with persons prominent in the business, professional and social life of this community. Following the invocation by Rev. D. E. Wiseman, pastor of the Church of Our Redeemer, Rev. Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, pastor of the Sharp Street Memorial Church, Baltimore, delivered an address to the graduates. Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief of the Freedmen's Hospital, presided
At the outset of his address, Dr. Hughes spoke of the old-time nurse who was not only expected to look after the needs of her patient, but do the chores of the house, and contrasted her with her specially trained sister of the present.
"This is an age of specialization," he said. "The world crowns the man who knows one thing supremely well, who can do something better than his fellows, even if it be in the art of raising potatoes. In your particular calling," he told the nurses, "good cheer is needed. The medicine of good cheer is to be compounded and administered by yourselves, and it will do as much for you and your patient as any medicine the doctor might leave."
President W P Thirkield, of Howard University, conferred diplomas upon the following graduates: Misses Clara E. Backman, West Virginia, Eva V. Clay, Pennsylvania; Edna M. Coates, Washington; Emily E. Green, Virginia; Sara E. Grisby, Washington; Florence M. Harris, New York; Jennie C. Hopkins, North Carolina; Ida J. Pai, Massachusetts, Mae Irene Price, Massachusetts; Nettie Bentley Stevena, Georgia; Lulu Thompson, Washington, and Martella M. York, Illinois.
PROTEST AGAINST MINISTER'S ACQUITTAL
Members of St. James A.M.E. Church are Still in Bad Humor
Chain that His Pocket Committee and Exerted Personal Influence to Secure Acquittal of Rev. A. L. Murray.
Atlantic City, N. J., May 23.—The special committee of St. James A. M. E. Church, which some months ago preferred charges against Rev. A. L. Murray, alleging that the minister was short of funds amounting to $8,000, has again come into the limelight by denouncing the findings of the special committee of the New Jersey Conference in acquitting Rev. Murray.
Bishop Gaines comes in for considerable censure, the special committee of St. James Church charging that the bishop ignored the protest of the church against appointing a packed committee. The claim is also made that Bishop Gaines used his personal influence to secure the acquittal of Rev. Murray.
What the Members Charge.
The following statement has been issued by the special committee of St. James A. M. E. Church:
We noted in the Christian Recorder of Philadelphia, in the issue of date May 14, 1911, that a special committee of the New Jersey Annual Conference of the A. M. E. Church, appointed by Bishop W. J. Gaines, with full power to investigate funds preferred against the Rev. A. I. Murray by a special committee of the trustees and official board of St. James A. M. E. Church, has published its final report or finding acquitting Rev. Murray without filing a copy of the finding itself in church or notifying the church of its findings. We are informed that Bishop Gaines ordered the publication of the findings of said committee, notwithstanding he knew we had stopped the investigation on account of the finding has and packed in favor of Rev. A. I. Murray and unfair to the church.
After the accountants had found Rev A. L. Murray short over $5,000 according to his own report, upon the papers in his possession, he (Rev. Murray) secured from some of his former creditors additional receipts to cover said shortage. On investigating the creditors surrounding the said receipts we objected to this new born evil by asking for the hostility of said Conference Committee, whom we had several times charged with being unjust, and who had been sent here with the understanding that they were to acquit Rev Murray at all hazards.
We further charge that Bishop Galen has ignored the protests of the church against packed committee and has used his perseverance to secure Rev Murray's acquittal. The committee may have arbitrarily acquitted Rev Murray but they will never be able to vindicate him in the eyes of the most honest church or at the great Tribunal over which God himself presides, by such methods of trial

Special to THE NEW YORK AGR
Chicago, Ill., May 23—Chicago was visited last week by Booker T. Washington, who brought hope and cheer to the Negro citizens of Chicago, whose breasts he has caused to swell with pride because of the special attention lavished upon him by the most important people of this great city.
Thursday, May 18, at 12:30 o'clock, at the Hotel Blackstone, Chicago's newest and finest hotel, he was the guest of honor at a luncheon teddered by Julius Rosenwald, President of Sears-Roebuck and Company, one of the largest mail order houses in the world. Mr. Rosenwald came into prominence last January by his offer to give $25,000 to any city willing to raise $75,000 for a Negro Y. M. C. A. building. At the luncheon there were present in addition to Mr. Rosenwald, Victor P. Lawson, editor and proprietor of the Chicago News; H. H. Kohlsaat, editor and proprietor of The Chicago Record-Herald; Joseph Medill McCormick, editor and proprietor of the Chicago Tribune; James Patten, the "Wheat King," and half a dozen Chicago bankers beside sixteen others—twenty-six in all—of the most prominent business and professional men of the Western metropolis.

Mr. Norwood
The report in The Christian Advocate of Federation's book at Chattanooga makes you领悟 spirit in that movement. When you are not the leader of it, you are simply given that place as a "figurehead" to give color to the movement. We know that the M. E. Church South, is leading it. I am writing to this personal letter because of your apparent leadership. I am grateful for you because I am very anxious for you to know what our umbrella member of our church and of the of our conferences think of you.
You are in consultation with our enemies. You are taking along with the constitutional rights of a part of the membership of your church in the dark. You are representing that class with the church. You are taking advantage of the weak, which is a forwardly act. The movement, which you as a figurehead, is increasing race prejudice, race hatred and race friction to a greater degree than your preaching will bring peace. You white Mediologists should take lessons from the Roman Catholics and take lessons from the Jews, you have taken lessons from them on many other subjects. The idea of a bishop being in a communal planning to get rid of his own members is a funny thing to an humble member. I just feel that you are one of your place. Daniel Webster said, "Take no prisoners." Slave Bill was passed, but he did so backward. Lincoln said, "The Union first and then freedom," but right said freedom first, then the union.
In concluding I remind you, Bishop. this is a personal letter, and so far as I know, expressing my own opinion. If the colored membership of the M. E Church were of my opinion they would publicly protest against our affiliating with our enemies concerning right regardless as our constitutional right regardless as our moral ment unless we are consulted. I am satisfied with my church I love my church I think it is a Christian Church as she now stands. I do not believe the church your commission is seeking to establish will be a Christian church in either doctrine or practice. My ideal of a Christian church is to that of a race church. If the colored members of my church would not go out by invitation mean treatment nor by insult, but only after every constitutional right had been contested. Constitutionally, the church is a spiritual institution, and should be dealt with from that view and not from social, racial, political and other incidental ways. My dear Bishop I know so and from Ohio the state of Michigan, and from my personal dealings with you and my knowledge of your fairness I believe you will do the correct thing toward your weak members.
Respectfully yours

KITTRELL COLLEGE CELEBRATION
Addresses by Prominent Members of the Clergym—Dedication of Duke Hall—Address to Graduates Delivered by the Rev. Dr. A. L. Gaines. Special to THE NEW YORK AGE.
Kittrell, N. C., May 23. A notable celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of Kittrell College, an educational institution of the A. M. E. Church, will come to an end here Thursday. The celebration is being attended by prominent churchmen as well as the leading educators, professional and business people of this section of the country. The new Duke Hall was dedicated and a considerable sum raised toward the $25,000 which the college authorities need for the extension of the work. Among those who have delivered addresses during the celebration were Bishop Levi J. Coppin, Prof. John R. Hawkins, secretary of education for the A. M. E. Church, Prof D. J. Jordan, president of the college, Ivy R. H. W. Leak, of Kaleigh, N. C. Ree John Hurst, financial secretary of the A M. E. Church, and Rev. V. L. Gaines, of Baltimore.
Dr. Gaines is of the opinion that such schools as Kuttrell College are surely but slowly helping to create a new type of Negro character—institutions that are now being recognized by thoughtful men and women of the South as agencies for good and not for evil, and as doing for the race the same good work as has been done by similar institutions for white people in the past.
The graduating class was somewhat small this year owing to the addition of a year to the normal course. The graduates were Classical course, Anthony E H King, normal, Edward W Saunders, and English theological, Key John J Benjamin.
DR. HALL HONORED
Special to THE NEW YORK AOK
Chicago, IL, May 21—Dr Geo Cleveland Hall, one of the most prominent surgeons in the United States, who is doing such effective work for the uplift of his race, was surprised to learn a few days ago that he had been elected a member of the Trustee Board of the Inner-Church College, Nashville, Tenn. There are to be but five colored men on the board, the rest composing the aristocracy of the South. Dr. Hall represents the Negroes of the Northwest.
The institution will open in December. It will be established to teach religious and social work. The teachers will be composed of all Southern white men and women and supported by the best class of Southern white people. This movement promises to revolutionize the long settled conviction that white people should not train Negroes and will go a long ways to stop ostracism.

'BLACK AND TANS'
TO MAKE A FIGHT
Louisiana Soon to be Scene of Significant Political Conflict
"LILY WHITES" SCARED
Cohen Faction Wins Important Point by Securing Permission to Copy Registration List
CONFIDENT OF VICTORY
Lenders of "Black and Tan" Faction Say that They will be Able to Demonstrate Their Supremacy.
New Orleans, La., May 23.—In the State of Louisiana there is to be a battle royal between the "Black and Tan" faction of the Republican party and the "Lily Whites" for supremacy, although the "Black and Tans" assert that it will not be so much of a battle after all, the leaders of the Cohen faction expressing the opinion that when the result is made known it will show that the "Lily Whites" met defeat in a one-sided contest.
The first intimation that the "Black and Tans" would enter the political arena was when Walter F. Cohen and Emile Kuntz, two local leaders, last week applied for permission to copy the registration lists of New Orleans Parish. The application was granted by Registrar W. P. Ball, who has declared that he intended to give every political party the same privileges under the law. The stand taken by Registrar Ball was regarded with displeasure by the "Lily Whites," as it will give the "Black and Tans" an opportunity to bring on a test of strength, a state of affairs the "Lily Whites" have been trying to secure. Primary to be a Test of Strength Walter F. Cohen has given out the following statement:
"We are going to hold a primary election to nominate State officers and want to ascertain who has registered and may vote under the party affiliations in our primary. We do not want any Democrats who deserted us to come back and seek to vote at our primary." An old politician who is conversant with political conditions in Louisiana, recently made the following observations in The Times-Democrat withitions in The Times-Democrat with "Black and Tans."
"The application of the Cohen-Kuntz Republicans to the registrar of voters to be permitted to copy the registration books is the first step of the 'Black and Tans' toward entering the next primary, and the first hint that there is going to be another primary besides that of the Democrat. This faction of the Republican party in Louisiana have all along suspected that they had a chance, and it has only been by the most astute bluffing it is said, that the 'Lily Whites' kept them from it. An old-line Republican remarked yesterday that this move on the part of the 'Black and Tans' would demonstrate that there are many more Republicans in this city and State besides those in the Federal service, that it would also show how many could register who are not now enrolled, and that there were many Negroes just of age, or over sixty, who can register on education or property qualifications. It is said that a large part of the 'Lily White' organization has returned to the Democratic party, never to again affiliate with Republicans, and that there are many Republicans who, although still of the party, will not vote with it in a State fight."
NEGRO PHILANTHROPIST
Calhan, Col, May 23—In this section of the country they are still talking about James K. Polk Taylor, who, a few months ago gave 480 acres of land in Colorado for colored consumptives and to carrying on a campaign of education for the prevention of tuberculosis.
James K. Polk Taylor was born as slave in Tennessee, near Brownville, nearly seventy-two years ago. He worked on a farm as a slave until he was 24 years of age, when he escaped into the Federal lines. After the war he cared for his widowed mother and two sisters, his father having been killed at Fort Pillow.
He went on West eighteen or nineteen years ago and settled at Colorado, Col, where he worked as bod carrier for a while. This class of work proved unsatisfactory on account of strikes, etc. He concluded it would be more agreeable to acquire some of the public lands. He took up 180 acres under the land act and bought two other quarter sections.
For years he has had an intense desire to do something to help his people as a mass. Seeing the suffering of his people from consumption as they came to Colorado from year to year with no place to go for care and treatment, he donated this land to the above named association for this purpose.
Hopefully in respect for traditions and customs breed lawlessness and anarchy, also the provocatives of races which is discurred in the past, the good mankind desires for the elemen-
tions which go to make up such thought will, scolish, feauls and devilish. It is important that the precipitation true and relentless of various kinds. Therefore a more
spurge of both teachers and preachers should be to stipulate and develop the good and heart of the people to do their good God and keep His commandments;
in the whole duty of man."
The results would be so marvelous and beneficial that others would say, "The Lord hath done great things in the world." The Lord hath done great things in the world we are glad.
On the evening Rev. Bolden preached the special thanksgiving sermon to the brothers of the church, and he said, "A new commandment I give unto you, that ye also love one another, that you shall me know that ye are loved, if you were to love me, at 13: 84-85." The sermon was well illustrated and sat into an elegant golden dress of words, full of strength and beauty, and the funeral of little Herbert Halloween in the afternoon.
The Sunday School is in making special offers under Sept. Eate to close the year with a planned to do the same. Mr. Bolden, the president of the auxiliary, has used the chairmans to see that their members of the church make great rally and showing on Sunday, May 28.
Honor A. Walters, D. D., will deliver the annual sermon at 11 a.m. All members of the congregation will be present. In the afternoon, Rev. N. Hanover, his chair and members, have promised to serve us. At 4.30 the Price Literary Society has invited the congregation to after calling the roll of our departed members and friends. Bishop Walters will deliver a memorial sermon. All persons who have relatives and friends who funeral or memorial Bolden should submit to submit their names to him by no Sunday.
The Anniversary Program—Monday, May 16th. The program will include poems indies. Historical sketch by D. D. DeCate; songs and recitations, Mrs. Bolden describing. Tuesday, May 80, a musical recital. June M. Johnson, actor, Wednesday May 81, entitled "The Couplet Beauty," by young ladies of St. Marks Church, Mrs. Laura Craver, director.
Broadway Eats on Monday night will give a performance of "New Yorkers of 50 years ago." Brother James will serve a call for all old New Yorkers to another New York to be present as he serves for the latest comedy in the city to meet Father Knickerbocker's service.

Last Sunday all the services at this church were well attended. Rev. Wm. Lawton preached a very thoughtful, interesting and practical sermon at the evening service.
The Sabbath School at 1 p. m. was attended than any time this lesson was reviewed by Elmer James Gwathney in his usual local and forcible way. Elder Newey one our practice teacher is the Sunday School, one we how to apply the lesson to conditions of to-day, and he did it Sunday.
The children are preparing for a concert in the interest of the Sabbath school and also for Children's day. The Home Mission Department of the Sabbath School met at $2.00 o'clock and an excellent program under the direction of one of our active ladies, Mrs. Joseph Augustine. The Woman Missionary Society of the church was organized after the morning service. It is the desire of the members to have the co-operation of every woman of the church. Miss Maude Simpson, the secretary, will be on hand every Sunday, and those wishing to help in that of church work are asked to hand their names to her. Her W. W. A Byrd of Rochester has an excellent sermon at the evening service. His theme was "A Mation on Its Knees," drawn from the book of Esther. Next Sunday Rev. Lawton will continue his series of sermons and will stretch at the morning service.
Rev. Eugene A. Johnson of Smith's Landing, N. J., will preach at the evening service Rev Johnson is a graduate of Lincoln University and a brother of one of our well-known physicians. Dr. William I. Johnson is a people come and hear the messages we forget the Rally Day, Sunday, Type II
Union Baptist Church
Our pastor having just returned from the Virginia Baptist State Convention which met at the Fifth Street Church, Richmond, of which Dr W F Graham is pastor. He brought us a glorious report, and stated that the delegation was an unusual one. Delegates from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Washington, and Baltimore. The reports from the field were very encouraging spiritually and materially. Over $2,000 was raised for the Virginia Seminary and School Sunday morning, the 14th, at 11 a.m. our pastor preached at the Zion Baptist Church, South Richmond, of which Dr W T Anthony is pastor. He has a splendid people, full of enthusiasm. At 1 p. m. in the evening he preached at Mt Zion Baptist Church, of which Dr B. V. Peyton is pastor. This old historian still stands with the actual funeral of the man who had the late Dr Jasper was there. Dr Peyton is indeed a great preacher and has a loyal people. At 11 a.m. a tremendous crowd was to hear our pastor preach on The Silence of God. The german had its effect
Abyssinian Baptist Church.
Sunday morning it looked as though all the colored people in New York were trying to take a picture in Haptus. It began to be a famous attraction. The Walker of Augusta, Ga. At 11:50 the people were standing on the front steps clamoring for attention. The people were disappointing because they could not get in. Dr Walker's voice seems to have its electricity. As he painted picture after picture the people came, the dog wild with enthusiasm. At 7:30 p. m. Rev A Clayton Powell,

arm Benedictine League, in presenting the pastor, choralist, organist, organ blower and sexun with envelopes, said it was one of the best sermons the League had listened to in its history. The League has a membership of 540, and about 600 make it the highest fraternal organization among colored people in New York City.
Dr. Powell will preach next Sunday morning by request to the mthe subject, "How to be a Christian." Dr. Powell sermon before the Thaddeus Stevens Post and John Brown Circle of the G. A. R.
St. Davids.
The Sunday services at St. David's last Sunday were largely attended morning and evening. At the morning service the rector, Rev. E. G. Clifton, was the preacher. The congregation was introduced to the organist-elect, Miss Delores Smith, who was seated at the organ but did not take part in the services. Miss Smith comes well with commendation. Being a graduate of will be basked in University and of musical colleges in Chicago, Boston and New York and will assume her duties on the first Sunday in June when Lorenzo Dyeg, the present incumbent, whose resignation is greatly regretted, will take effect.

CHEAP RENT
NEW YORK MOBS.
How easy it is not to lynch a colored man in this town was proven last week, when a handful of a yellow man called Cain, insulted without cause by a beer-wagon driver, who sented tobacco smoke, and sat upon by a howling mob, many of which knew nothing of the matter except that a colored man was being pursued, wounded many and killed two. Deplorable this is, from the standpoint of the fearfulness of the crime of murder, the influence of the affair upon society generally, and the desolation that followed the path of blood and death. But it could not be stayed; it was one of those occurrences that sweep periodically through the philosophy of a social structure to vindicate the ways of truth. Cain's past record, according to the daily papers, that are never to be believed when colored people are to be reported, is bad. Why it is bad on the books, is another matter altogether. Many that saw him on that memorable evening are sorry now that they did not know before that his record was bad, for both he and others would have been saved much trouble and great pain.
We do not go into the details of the affairs. There is no use of it. Although is known already, but we require these remarks: It will be more pleasant in the future if colored men who happen to break the rules of the traction companies with respect to smoking on the cars are left to the employees of the companies and the officers of the law, and if insolent and cheap "white people," who cannot bear in patience the sight of a docently dressed colored man or woman, will stay in their places, for attempt to chastise where only the law may interpose. Hereafter when a single colored man and a single white man uselessly engage themselves in unseemly squabbles, let the mob look on, not charge the under dog, who moves in fear and exaltement, for, like Cain, the under dog may turn and bite, and death might befall. For Cain we have no excuse.
he offer; he fought a hundred men, and a hundred men he held at bay. He sought to avoid trouble, but trouble came, and he did what he would to protect himself. Fate moves wondrously. The gentle defender of the rules of the traction companies who first assaulted Cain, escaped unhurt. We have not heard of him since he followed his man to the street, except that, that he was the first to flee when the battle began fiercely to wage, and when his comrades needed him most.
The essence of cowardice we always see in the movements of a mob. Cowards only are found in mobs, and cowards flank together, never singly. A brother of one of the unfortunate men killed in the affair made a statement after the air cooled. We found it in the Evening Sun, whose editor must have been off watch when the garagraph slipped through Said Cunningham:
I kept close to the Negro all the way, and I know he didn't have any gun. Most of us didn't dare to touch him. The man with the most nerve was a man with an umbrella. He run up behind the Negro, and him him with the umbrella on the head. But the Negro spotted him by and by. Then he turned around and chased the man away. Whenever the Negro turned around the whole crowd would run behind the Negro and him him would run up and heave bottles and things at him. But no one dared touch him.
"The minute his back was turned" the mob charged him, but whenever he faced the mob, the mob fell back, and none dared to touch him, for his heads and garments were filled with

death. The New York mob will finally get its man, but the rope that tells get its man, but the rope that tells the story will tell another also, for colored men here, who make good neighbors and good friends, are set against the merciless mobs, composed, in these parts, of drunken immigrants and half-grown sons of slaves recently escaped from Europe. "The mob only needed a leader," announced Hearst's Journal, mob-organ and hate-infamer. A mob has never had a leader, but some fieryeyed, stewed, loud-talking man, at the head of a shouting gang of cowards, may yet cause blood unnecessarily to flow, and grief to visit many breshes where grief was never known before Lynch-law, whether directed at Italians or Negroes, will never be written in the laws of this city. Mark that!
As for Cain, let him be quiet. The courts of New York, we believe, are as fair as any courts in the world. If he can set up that he killed others who sought first to kill him, he will go free. Cain had no gun, is the testimony of all.
TEMPLE OF KNOWLEDGE.
The finest library in the world was opened in New York yesterday. It is opened to everybody, low and high, rich and poor, bond and free, black and white. The greatest city of the greatest country in the world is generous with its money when the people's pleasure is to be attended or their profit is to be advanced. The land on which the building stands is valued at $20,000,000, and the building itself cost $12,000,000 Ten years it took to complete the structure. The building is entirely of marble, 450,000 tons being used. There is room for 5,500,000 volumes. The floor space covers 375,000 feet. There are 3,000,000 cards in the catalogue department and room for 7,000,000 more.
The reading room on the third floor is the largest in the world. It is 295 feet long and 77 feet wide. The ceiling, of ornate Italian renaissance, is 50 feet high. No great effort has been made to gather pictures, a work for the gallery, of course, but in the library are 90,000 prints, unequalled anywhere. The library opens with 375,000 volumes, but it is said that in a quarter of a century there will be approximately 3,700,000 books in the cases and on the shelves. Every New Yorker is proud of this wonderful temple of knowledge, built against the skies for eternity.
Within its walls there is no line of color or class. Come all that thirst and are weary of ignorance, come without price and without money and freely drink. To colored men and women the famous eating houses in that neighborhood are closed, but not so with the great white structure that rises in silent majesty on the new world's busiest corner. Go there and drink deep, ye who riot in pleasure, and learn of the things that make men free indeed.
A STUPID PRESS.
If there was ever before a more wretched exhibition of cowardly and wicked journalism than the press of New York gave, without exception, in reporting the impressive activities of a colored man with a knife in this town last week, we have not heard of it.
What the press hopes to gain by lying going and coming in this fashion, we do not know. If the editors hereabouts are determined to surrender their columns to Southern pens working against starvation in New York, all right. But lying about a murder committed by a colored man, who intended not to be lynched, will not help society, aid the ends of justice, or increase the power of journalism. As for colored men, when they see what the press is up to, they will be more than ever determined to resent imposition from beer a grown drivers and immigrant justice dealers.
The press of New York may as well be told now as to learn the lesson later, that the colored men of New York, after a careful survey of the situation, proper consideration of every interest involved, and contemplating how many the years this continental valley they have called home agreed to oppose lynch law, and oppose it right
This is New York, not Atlanta'
MAYBE
Why do cooperative business efforts among colored people of this town so often fail? Puzzled we have always been and are now over this, and often as discouraged as puzzled Some have said one thing, some an other, but the explanation that explains has not come out. We go on attempting and failing with attempt Mountains of money in the past have been put up to buy failures, and a people otherwise good and patient are pretty well worn out. Maybe the wise philosopher, a shrewd observer, himself many times sinned against and seldom sinning, hit the nail on the head the other day.
---
He said that we made no success here in the way of co-operative achievement because unlike relationships in other big centers, the men in New York are strangers to each other, and therefore do not have in one and the other that confidence out of which, and out of which alone, comes honest effort and labor crowned with success. It strikes us that this is so. But we should not become altogether discouraged, for banding themselves together as never before are young, vigorous, efficient men, who have come up side by side. They are not only pathfinders, but family builders, and to them New York must look, and is beginning to look, for substantial achievements in the fields of commerce and business.
MINISTER FURNISS.
After fourteen years in the diplomatic service of the Government, Harry W. Furniss, United States Minister to Haiti, has resigned Mr. Furniss was appointed Consul at Bahia, in Brazil, by President McKinley, in 1897. This record there was marked by efficiency and faithfulness. It is not too much to say, not only that he was the most useful American consul that was ever sent to Bahia, but that during his years there he was the most popular member of the diplomatic agents who surrounded him. When President Roosevelt decided to recall William F. Powell from Haiti, he determined on the selection of Furniss as his successor after consulting only three statesmen, Root, Fairbanks and one other.
From public reports and private letters we have kept up with Mr Furniss' work in the black Republic, and it has given us pleasure and gratification to see how well he carried himself in a land of revolution, where to-day is in no wise a barometer of to morrow, and with what courage, alacrity and suavity he has attended the interests of his country there. Trade has increased, and a happier attitude than ever before existed now marks the relationship of the United States and the land that spurned Napoleon and drove his soldiers from its shores.
President Taft, we may be allowed to suggest, ought to pick a diplomat to succeed Furnus, for his successor will succeed certainly a diplomat, whose influence may be destroyed over night, but whose influence ought never to be destroyed, for it tells in new and stronger bonds between two countries whose interests are entwined in a way that on the surface does not appear.
A GOOD CHOICE.
It is not always true that a prophet cannot get himself together at home for some little time we have been delightfully engaged in acquaintings many with the worth of a great preacher, who has suffered somewhat because he was misunderstood in certain quarters. When THE Age announced that we favored Dr R C Ransom for a place on the Bench of Bishops, there was much talk, some of one kind, some of another. We had a lovely time of it satisfying the Charleston Advocate that we had spoken the right word, but the eagle-eyed watchman saw the light in time. During the past week the Annual Conference of the A M E Church met in this city. Many bright lights came to shine under the Cross, and many motions were made by many men for a preacher will be heard. The chief interest of the convention centered about the election of delegates to the General Conference which will meet in Kansas City in 1912. Dr Ransom fell all the rest being elected to the first ballot by a vote of 40 to 7. The Sunday before the conference met, his own church, Bristol, voted as one nomin for him when it was asked if the congregation would favor his elevation to the bench. In his own church his own conference and in his own city Dr Ransom is a strong force a character and which city good people, who have discovered him the elements of which good and useful men are made.
WHY NOT?
The Charleston News and Courier is loyal to every interest of the South, disorder, a lavish hope maker, singer in the sweet songs of Dixie. Its music is not only sweet since Elder Hemphill left his job as organ pumper. The South is doing well and ought to be happy, we gather from the follow up works from our contemporary
True, the South has not produced since the war which laid her waste stintion of the type which were her predeceased during the earlier portion of the country a history. States raft in those states of the type which were fought of the Southern gentleman. If the men have found other things to occupy their attention in these latter years, that is not a matter to be wondered at twice again, however the opportunity for service is being opened to us, and the opportunity there will arise in men third class. A Southern man is a Speaker of the House of Representatives. A Southern man is leader of the majority in that body. A Southern man is leader of the militant minority in the Senate. A Southern man and an officer of the Confederacy in Chief Justice of the Court. A Southern man may be the next President of the United States.
"A Southern man may not may be the years before they may trouble to us, for this nation is no playground this land no cavalier's toy. And yet, we have stopped shorter and fared bad.
DICKENS. ABOLITIONIST.
For the Outlook, the late Colonel Higginson wrote shortly before his death a paper entitled "Dickens in America." It was published a week or so after the great soldier and writer had been laid to rest beneath the soil of free Boston. Following Colonel Higginson in this brilliant recital of the visit of the novelist to our shores, we have an intimate picture of Boston when Boston was the real intellectual capital of the continent. Indeed, we walk with Dickens through the streets, follow him into drawing rooms, and see gagging women crowd him into flight. But it is not Dickens the writer that holds us now, but Dickens the abolitionist Colonel Higginson says of him:
So Dickens was a lover of freedom for all men everywhere, as all the great men of the world have been in the past. He who would bind another on slavery can rise never above the slave Dickens, who made children to talk through delightful pages, and interpreted the ambitions of the common lot, was an abolitionist. He loved all men and cherished all women, and had no turning stomach-turning over "social equality" the hypocrite's language
THIRKIELD. PRESIDENT.
No graduate, undergraduate or friend or Howard University, or persons interested in education generally, can fail to take pride in the high grade work done for the university by President Thurkield, one of the most aggressive heads that that great school ever had. Twenty-seven years of his rich and inspiring career Dr. Thurkield has given to the education and advancement of colored people, it is a happy sentence of fate that the crown to all his labors is found in service at the only national university colored people may claim
When he was elected president of Howard, there were 800 students. Now there are 1300. The president's salary was once $3,000. President Thirkield would accept only $4,500. The appropriations, when he took hold, amounted to $40,000 per annum. The budget last year called for $100,000. Howard's reputation is greatly increased over former years, and everywhere its fame is spreading among the people. All this is the work of Wilbur P. Thirkield, who left his life work once upon a time, but returned to it, let us hope to rem
BANK FOR NEW ORLEANS
Under the brilliant leadership of S. W. Green, a born fraternal leader, the Pythians of Louisiana have done wonderful things. They are all the delighters. In the recent Grand Lake convention provision was made for a committee to cooperate with holding men of the race, leaving to the estate control a bank in New Orleans. That means that we are going to have a bank in the city where a bank is needed, and where it will do work from the present day. Mr Green has moved shortly, taking no step with the way was clear.
Two years ago, August coming, the Pythians dedicated a $200,000 structure in the heart of the city. Before us in the great Chancellor's quarterly statement his fond Lodge controls resources of $200,862.12. Cash in the banks amounts to $2,200 50, real estate $15,145, and the temple investment $16,171.08.
Both his Grand and Supreme Leader are proud of him, and count themselves fortunate in his leadership
The good points in this poetic gem taken from the inspired pages of the great Baptist preacher, the Nashville Union-Reinert, are quite enough to overbalance whatever may be unfair with respect to the darker hue of singing Solomon's skin
It was Solomon who said, The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strung. And there is much truth in this demonstrated observation of the black Jensen a mean or petty one. Hold on in your course to men and women of a race whose ancestors, according to a declaration of one of the world's greatest and most profound archaeologists, Dr. Root, were the first of the sons of the man, to head the man, the man of civilization, and all that has been lost in the decadence of past centuries will be regained in a
higher and more glorious way in this, and coming centuries;
We know nothing of Solomon's color, so confusing are the givings of ethnologists and anthropologists, but it is well established that the darker men started the world on civilization's road. Also we are settled in our belief that they are soon to have a place far in front.
The Southwestern Christian Advocate does well to devote one of its numbers to the achievements of the prominent laymen of the Methodist Episcopal Church. They are each of them strong men, leaders in their spheres, an honor to both their race, their church and their time. In the South the Methodist laymen have long been foremost in affairs and in adopted leadership among the people. The Southwestern's list is full and pleasing, but it is incomplete
The Helping Hond, organ of R L Smith's Texas Farmers Society, an honours just below a long and not unhappy discussion of the merits of Moses and Abraham, that since the Waco bank opened its doors more than $80,000 have been deposited, and that $30,000 of this amount is still on hand. Its resources last week amounted to $40,000 Its loans amount to $0,000, and this, all of it, in four short months Mr Smith, who has the organizing fever, is doing an important work in Texas, and Texas knows it.
Now comes James R Harris, the brilliant Kentucky writer, with a newspaper. The Lousville Defender We do not like the name, but what is in a name? Kentucky, home of the greatest living editor, has never had a real newspaper controlled by colored men We have reason to hope that the Defender will fill the place so long vacant there We, have a wide acquaintance in that state of strong men and beautiful women, and we know of no one there better fitted for the higher work of journalism than James R Harris Here's power to his pen and an ink well that will never run dry

POLITICAL NOTES
To succeed the late Charles R. Brayton, William P. Sheffield has been elected as the Rhode Island member of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Sheffield has long been a close personal friend of ex-Senator Aldrich.
The General Assembly of the State of Illinois has adjourned, and it will go into history as one of the interesting sessions of a body of which Abraham Lincoln was once a member, and in which he was a leading figure. The only colored member of that body was Edward D. Green, the Chicago lawyer, who represents the First District. Mr. Green was not a figurehead in his place, but took rank as one of the forceful men of the session. Aggressive and efficient, he moved out into debate on all important matters, not necessarily matters connected with his own race, but general propositions and measures, and
HON EDWARD D. GREEN
he was heard always by an attentive and respectful audience. The Ace thinks it not too much to say that no colored member of a State Legislature in 25 years has occupied so high and so important a place in the affairs of a legislative body as Mr. Green occupied, and as he of himself made. He was not only an effective debater, but he was a member of every important committee of the session, including the finance committee, always a body's most important committee. We give a list of the committees: Finance, Chicago Charter, Building Loan and Homestead Associations, Education, Judicial Apportionment, Liberal, Military Affairs, Parks and Boulevards, Primary Elections, Published Books and Grounds, State Institutions.
These are the committees that conduct not only the affairs of the Assembly, but the affairs of the State Mr. Green is a moss-back Republican and a fine type of the political leader. He is deeply interested in all matters affecting his people. For many years he has been secretary-treasurer of the Pythian Temple Commission of the Supreme Lodge, and otherwise engaged in the people's work.
There is not an ocean of harmony in the Democratic party, if we are to believe William Jennings Bryan, the biggest Democrat that ever Democratized in this country. The Richmond (Va) Times Dispatch, Elder Hemphill's paper, had a few kind words to say about Woody Wilson, whom the Sun calls the itinerant Governor. Thereupon the Commoner, Mr. Bryan's paper, made the following significant remarks.
The colored Democrats got into their heads the notion of a national convention and selected Indianapolis is the meeting ground. Some times we give notice of such a convention, and endorsed several suggestions by the Flounderer of Indianapolis. The convention has met and adorned to go back to see Brother Champ Clark, the preacher-speaker to tell him a few things. The Indianapolis World is partly owned by V. Manning, a long suffering Democrat. In its current issue there is editorial reference to the convention which has just closed. We confess that we stand confused before the attitude of the World but this is how that grizzly old power refers to the convention.
The House declared Negro National Democracy and now show a new test of history. It failed to attract the attention of the isolated people of the United States, and the press, by the press paper who were excluded from the press and did not depend upon the promoters to forbid the facts which the United and very willfully took for themselves, and admitted to the media, 200 cases which is claimed was to attend, those would have distilled down to five. We are not in the midst of a campaign when partisan debate is at fever heat, and so we can state the facts without fear of misrepresenting any of the judging the men who came to Indianapolis to take it by storm and then-
nature, they supportive homes "with the beacon." The Negro Nation Democratic Convention, which is a mismanor has come and gone and the political situation in Indiana remains unchanged. It has been no shaking of political situations and encounters; and the whole planet system is moving in orbits as of now without varying the fractional part of any unit of measurement. We mean the fractional part of the planet upon occasions which convene merely to promote the public welfare or the weal of the individual. The Indiana Negro has been circulated for years and notwithstanding all that only the Negroes attended its sessions

WETMORE EXPLAINS LAW
To the Editor of The Age
I have been asked many times in the last month why Booker TP Washington doesn't prosecute that man who assaulted him by him men who pretended to be other men who disgrace Washington and by others who disgrace Washington and many nasty comments in colored newspapers which are calculated to create the impression that Mr Washington is responsible for the postponement of Which's trial. Now I feel in justice to write to publication one ought to write for publication and we are governing these classes of cases.
I hold no brief for Mr Washington, and it is generally known that we have barely spoken since the Brownsville attack, and it is also generally known that when we were attacked as often as I defended them, I do not think anyone will accuse me of being a "Booker Washington man" but I am a race man and I think the covardly attacks that have been made against me would be "the Negroes" who distrust me willing to injure the whole race if they can injure or annoy him, because he was the victim of the cruel race prejudice from which so many good people offered it very desirable and should be frowned upon by all deceit people.
I wonder if these men have an idea of the injury it would do to the race, if the white papers published the things that some of the colored papers have about this unfortunate affair? For an enlightenment of the race papers and the unfortunate warrior because this affair has not been tried I wish to wish that Urich is charged with the writing of a maldemeanor and that the calendar of the Court is special when it is received in accordance with the place on said calendar for the Court of Special Court in New York and as the law requires that the minister of said Court be appointed after they are held for a long case to be heard in other words a person charged with an offence trial by the Court of Special Court is guilty of the same offence and I have known that they were not tried.

What the Ascension of Jesus Implied For Himself and For the World.

Baltimore, Md.
May 21. — Pastor
Russell of the
Brooklyn Taberna-
cle preached here
twice today to large
and attentive audi-
ences. We report
one of his discu-
courses from the
text, "When He as-
cended up on high
He led a multitude of captives" (Ephe-
dians 15, S 10).
In this week occurs the anniversary of Jesus' ascension. In one sense of the word our Lord ascended (that is, from human nature and the tomb, to the divine nature and immortality) at the time of His resurrection from the dead. He tarried, however, for forty days, with the Apostles for their establishment and instruction—He on the spirit plane, invisible to them, except when He manifested Himself by appearing miraculously in various forms to convince them that He was no longer deceased, and also that He was no longer confined to human conditions.
*Flesh and Blood Cannot Inherit the Kingdom of God.*
We are not, however, to suppose for a moment that Jesus ascended a fleshly or human being; we remember on the contrary, that "flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God," and that "He was put to death in the flesh but quickened in the spirit," and that thenceforth, as the Apostle declares, "The Lord is that Spirit" (II Corinthians lt. 17).
To suppose that Jesus went to heaven a man is to mistake the significance of His title. The Son of Man which He maintains, as identifying Him with His great redemptive work—as one of His many titles. To suppose that Jesus is a human being in heaven would be to suppose that He is still as when in the flesh, "a little lower than the angels," whereas the Scriptures declare that He has ascended far higher, so that all the angels of God, as well as men, are commanded to worship Him. To suppose Jesus in heaven a human being would be to suppose Him out of all harmony with heavenly, spiritual conditions and surroundings.
Moreover, are we not told that the Church of Christ will be changed from the human to the spirit condition in the resurrection, and that this change will make the "elect of God" like their Redeemer, so that they may see Him as He is not as He was that they may see Him in glory, honor and immortality, exaltation and not as the humiliated One Who was made flesh that He might sacrifice His flesh on man's behalf? When we so thought we forgot the Scriptural declaration that "Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God."
A Multitude of Captives
Our text in a figurative way, represents the ascension of Jesus from the earthly plane to the heavenly as the triumph of a great Conqueror Sin had gained in endency over Adam and his race and had brought mankind low to the dest mentally morally and psychical Moreover, this victory over man had been gained in a legal manner through one man's disobseil since life, 12 The Logos divested His glory on the spirit plane and flesh fulfilled the demands of the low proved Himself competent to pay the sinners ransom price and Himself a ransom for all those involved in due time of Timothy.

NURSERY SUMMER HOME.
The Children Are to Have a Recreation Center at Mt Kisco, in the Heart of Westchester.
Mount Kisco Summer Home for Day Nursery Children has been made possible by Mr. and Mrs. I. R. Scales of White Plains giving the use of a cottage, barn and eight acres of land for two years. In this to this a second house and adjoining two acres has been rented from Mr. Scales.
It is nicely situated east of Spy rock, a picturesque spot of 600 feet above sea level in the picturesque country of Westchester county. The ten acres comprise a woodland having a garden and fruit trees. An at midnight water a creek has been seen dripping into an area well at a cost of nearly 400 feet. Mrs. L. L. White

since, which will continue until the end of the month. The pastor of the church, Roy P Carter, will preach a historical sermon at the beginning of the exercises last Sunday morning, and the closing Rev Walter H Brooks pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, Washington, filled the pulpits. Dr William A Creidt, pastor of the Cherry Memorial Church, Philadelphia, preached May 10.
The first Baptist Church was started in 1815, but its growth was very slow until Rev Moses Clayton, of Norfolk, Na. assumed the pastorate in 1834. Two years thereafter the congregation was incorporated. Rev Mr. Clayton continued as pastor until his death in 1860 at the age of 73 years. Several ministers had charge for brief periods until Rev J C Allen was called to the church in 1872.
The declining health of Rev Mr. Allen caused the church to call Rev P. Carter Neal as assistant pastor in 1891, and when Pastor Allen died in 1901, he succeeded him. He is a graduate of the old Wavley Seminary, Lincoln University at the Hamilton University, Philadelphia Seminary, New York. He received the honorary degree of Master of Arts from Wavley University. Rev Mr. Neal is happily married to Miss Harriett A. Jackson, one of his classmates at Wavley Seminary.

ADVERTISE IN THE AGE
MUSIC AND THE STAGE
LESTER A. WALTON
A PRAISEWORTHY MOVEMENT
NEW YORK is to have a music school settlement conducted in the interest of colored citizens, who, while desirous of becoming musicians, find it difficult to realize their ambition, due to their stringent financial condition. The proposed music school settlement will be established in West Ed street, and will be conducted on similar lines as an institution on the East Side.
The music settlement on the West Side, which will be conducted under the management of the Walton Kindergarten for Colored Children, will be supported by voluntary subscriptions, and it will be the chief aim of the management to appeal primarily to wage earners and their children who are ambitious to study music. The fee for individual half-hour lessons will be twenty-five cents. Harmony, sight singing, sight reading, ensemble, lectures and orchestra training will be taught free and obligatory for pupils of the graduate departments.
Two important meetings have been held recently by white and colored citizens interested in the movement. The first meeting was held May 11, and the second last Sunday. The Mary F. Walton Kindergarten for Colored Children, 203 W. 63d street, was the scene of both conferences. At Sunday's meeting the first annual patrons' subscription, amounting to $100, was made by Mrs. Francis Barton, sister of Col. Robert Gould Shaw.
Prof. Felix Adler, the well known leader of the Ethical Culture Society; Maj. R. R. Moton, of Hampton, Institute, who for many years has been connected with the leading singing organizations of Hampton, Mr. and Mrs. David Mannes, whose piano and violin duets have attracted local attention, and Miss Natalie Curtus, whose work along musical lines, especially in regard to the art of the American Indian, which has merited appreciation, were among those who discussed the practicability of establishing a music school settlement for colored people.
Prof. Adier in speaking favorably of the music school settlement, stated that the problem of the colored people of this country was recognized universally as one of the most important with which the American public had to deal. He pointed out the great spiritual value, the possibilities for mental and moral self-development which can be utilized by the right acceptance of the burden which circumstances have placed upon a struggling race, and the opportunities for growth which the very difficulties that surround them may afford. He emphasized the point that it was essential not only to the colored man but to the public at large that such a large group of citizens should not be allowed to fall behind in the progress of civilization, and declared that the easiest and most natural way in which this development could be brought about lay in the cultivation of those qualities and gifts which the colored race is peculiarly fitted to contribute to the common welfare and art.
Speaking further on the subject, Prof Adler said:
The members of the colored race possess the naturally harmonic ear, and it seems strange that this vein of gold, this gift for music, should not have been exploited. We should aim at the outset to develop the distinctive and unique talent which the colored people possess. There may be others, but assuredly the musical gift is undeniable. Hence, I see in this movement not merely another little charity added to others, but a step in advance of almost anything that has been consciously undertaken in the way of leading them along the line of civilization. Our efforts have been mainly occupied with providing those common elements of education which most Isaac requires. Here, however, is a bold, enticing, most attractive project, which has for its purpose the elucidation and revelation of something in this race, among these folks which is nature's peculiar blessing for them and us. In the musical development of America can the influence of such efforts be overestimated?
Maj. Moton laid great stress upon the necessity of drawing out all that was best in the temperament of the race and linking it with the best of other races, and said:
Any race that is ashamed of itself, that laughs at itself, that wishes it were anything else but what it is, can never hope to get the respect of other races, and can never be a great people. And I hope this school will teach us to respect ourselves, and will not in any way interfere with our respecting others. Anything that will deepen that spirit has my hearty approval. This is a work not merely for a race; it is something for all humanity—black and white.
Miss Curtis emphasized the fact that the new organization would in no way detract from the original creative musical talent of the race, but rather give its merbera fuller scope for expression of native gifts along native lines, and said that the folk music of the colored people is of such artistic value that it must be the root from which the musical development of the race is to spring, and is its peculiar contribution to the musical world.
Another phase of the question was brought out by Mr. Mannes, who stated
一
that such a movement might lead to a more intimate appreciation of genuine music in the average American home. "Music," he said, "is not merely what one Frenchman defined it, 'the most expensive noise'; it ought to be the cheapest, for of all things in the world, it is the most common, the only language we really understand, and it ought to be the means of bringing us together."

"Treemonisha," an opera in three acts, the latest contribution to the musical world by a colored composer, Scott Joplin, who wrote "The Maple Leaf Rag" and other syncopated compositions, is responsible for "Treemonisha," words and music, which is being published by him also.
The story deals with a colored walt who was found under the trees by Neil and Monisha, and because of her inclination to play under the trees she was named Treemonisha. The scene of the story is laid on planets in Arkansas. The book provides for eleven people in the cast and a large chorus. Composer Joplin characterizes the music as "strictly Negro." There are twenty-seven musical numbers and there are 220 pages to the score of the opera.

BERT WILLIAMS IN DEMAND.

Within the past six weeks Manager Ziegeld has formed even a higher opinion of the colored artist as an attraction.
When the company left for the West some weeks ago it was understood that the comedian would leave the show in San Francisco and come directly East to begin rehearsals for the Follies of 1911. After the show's engagement in San Francisco word was received that the managers in Los Angeles and the adjacent territory were forced to play the Follies of 1910 in their house without Bert Williams unless a different business arrangement was entered into, which would have meant less percentage for the Ziegeld aggregation, so the comedian was instructed to remain in California two more weeks.
When the show finished California the managers of the theatre at Salt Lake, Utah, also protested against the absence of the colored comedian from the cast, and Manager Ziegfeld wired him to remain a few weeks longer with the show.
This week the comedian wired to New York that he would not reach Manhattan Island until about June 8, as the manager of the theatre at Denver, as well as others, had demanded that he appear with the show, and that Manager Ziegfeld had advised him to remain with the Follies of 1910 until it had finished its western tour
CRESCENT THEATRE
Irving Jones has been secured to appear one week at the Crescent Theatre, and he is one of the biggest hits that has ever been at the house. The well known singer and monologue artist is playing at the Crescent Theatre on a bet. Some of his friends have been claiming for some time that his act, while pleasing to white playgoers, would not take with the colored. Several days ago the subject came up and in order to prove that he could make good before a colored audience Irving Jones secured a week's engagement at the Crescent. As he is provoking much merriment and applause at each performance he has convinced all that he is as big a funmaker before a colored audience as he is a white one. In the talk going the rounds about shows and comedians for next season it is strange that such a well known performer as Irving Jones should be overlooked.
Ella Anderson, prima donna of the Smart Set Company, is entertaining in songs. She has always been a favorite at the Crescent. Her first two numbers were well rendered and warmly received.
McClain and Lillard could afford to cut out half of their dialogue. The act is too long. The feature of the skit is the singing of "My Old Lady" by Lillard.
Harris and Smith should so arrange their musical act as to play their instruments only. Their talk is out of place and not appreciated. Neither is the bottle ofgin incident. Nevin's "Rosary" is creditably played. Smith is a drummer who would come out among the winners in any drum contest.
P S.—The management is advertising "a good all colored bill for last half of the week." Nix on the "colored." We would not like to see the剧院 advertise "a good all white bill."

Hope Day Report
1. New Lectures
The subject of a lecture to be delivered at Carnegie Library 75th avenue and 51st street on May 28 will be something out of the ordinary. Flickr - W. Robinson as he styles himself of the lecturer. He comes from Philadelphia, where he founded a church called the Church of the Kingdom. This man is not an infidel set of his claims that he will prove some startling things by the Bible. Contrary to the popular belief he is going to tell the New York people that there is no boll and that Lazar was never buried. In the earth nor did Lazar perform the miracles much in the manner common to a captain. Apparently this strange man is very earnest. He may be entertaining if not instructive. Elsewhere in this chapter the picture is advertised.

"ARCHBISHOP" JUSTUS J. EVAN8
D. G.
The New Creator of Peace and Prosperity for the Negro Race of America, Calls the Negro People Loud.
In shining light to teach my maker I call the Negro people to teach and strong. And this is my ultimatum to the strong of the world. To you I say 'O men and women as well that you may consider right and consider be a small thing for you to turn a daerel upon your head. And we meet when I speak to you in God's name, but your future will tell this nation and this generation just what you are for and this generation just what you say to you. And now speak to me what I say to you. And to regard my apach in this ultimatum, your credibility and civil intelligence would be the same. If one should rise up from the same, then he should rise up from the same, and he would not be persecuted to believe his testimony, unto you which were true.
I am alive and now I respect you by Him that sent me to make this great call I want to you that if God takes my words I want to you that if God takes my words with Him if a supreme plan of Himself by which He had thought to be best by which He did the vigorous rage as a people to get people to see that living and help to get people to see that living and help for Himself to make it known to them, and in so doing God would reveal Himself and show the fullness of that plan to one and all that people to see that living and help if God had a way by which Him it would good to establish the true righteous that they may never be removed the system of God would reveal in full to one major war. This is God’s war. And again if God should move to set up the kingdom of God on this earth according to the words of the prophet Jesus its construction God would reveal in full to one man only in order to master all the rest that one man would he command to build His plans to such as besides Him His plans to such as besides Him to doing the things no foolish to be done.
